    Met with a smile and some humour at the door. Knowledgable about the menu. Found us a different table as the first one was between indoor and outdoor seating area and the evening was cold. I saw he also offered other diners sitting outside blankets and hot water bottles to keep warm. Nicely lit indoor area and food was good. Definitely felt like we were very important to their business and would return.

    The menu was short (a good thing!) and we had the fish and chips. They were reasonably priced and fantastic. We sat outside and the view was great. The service was attentive but they didn't pester us. A great place!

    This is one of our favourite places to eat in Lyme Regis. This is because of the outstanding food, beautiful sea views, friendly staff and reasonable prices. Plus they have a very good range of gluten free options including breakfast.

    We were delighted to eat here - we usually forget to book in advance and then we can't get in. Being vegan and gluten free I was very happy with the banana blossom and chips - it was yummy! The food was lovely and the service was very hospitable and friendly. We will definitely return next year!
