Welcome to The Jolly Fisherman, Craster. Combining stunning sea views with delicious home cooking and beautifully kept ales, this is a tastefully refurbished pub with tradition and character at its heart. We’ve taken great care to retain the charm of this historic pub with stone flagged floors, low beamed ceilings and comfortable seating. In the winter months, you can relax by one of our roaring open fires and in the summer enjoy the view from one of the most spectacular beer gardens in Northumberland.

    Very nice ambience overlooking the harbour & the sea on a stormy day. 4 of us had the lobster which we enjoyed but the chips that were served were disappointing. We also had the ice cream for dessert but the caramel sauce served was a little under generous for the price.

    Was a rainy weekday afternoon and the was very quiet just one table preparing to leave. The service was immaculate, the food (3 out of 4 had the fish platter) amazingly good with a great ambiance. So pleased we showed our Northumberland cuisine to our Southern guests of course they now want to live in God’s Country.

    Have visited the Jolly Fisherman on several occasions and it never disappoints. The menu is outstanding, the service terrific and it has a great ambience whether outside on a sunny day or sitting by the log fie on a winter's evening. On this occasion our party of six had the Captain's Corner to ourselves in the bar area. It was very cosy and we were able to relax with our dog (who enjoyed his own 'Sunday Roast' doggy treats) . The menu has plenty of variety, the Sunday roasts hearty and delicious and the fish pie wonderful. We look forward to our next visit. Highly recommend. Many thanks.

    We loved it! I’ve had this place on my list for quite some time and it definitely did not disappoint. Our new favourite place. Friendly staff especially a young guy very professional and attentive for his age. Very refreshing. The Tempura prawns were to die for and the Sunday roast one of the best we have ever sampled. The views were incredible. The ambience perfect. It was very busy but the place felt very calm and relaxing. Lovely lunch. Can’t wait to go back!

    Lovely typical British pub situated right on the coast with lovely views out in to the North Sea. Great food and selection of beers and ciders. The sound lady who served us was great, polite, friendly, great service. Food was really nice, and served nice and hot. Would definitely recommend and go again.
