Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Diners rave about the excellent quality of the food, particularly the fish, which is admirably cooked with just the right amount of batter. The curry sauce is noted to be a standout, often referred to as the best some have had all year.
Friendly and efficient service enhances the experience, making meals enjoyable. Plus, the unique presentation on silver platters adds a quirky touch that patrons find delightful. The selection of drinks, especially the great coffee and Yorkshire tea, complements the meal perfectly.
Most Disliked
While the majority of reviews are positive, some visitors express disappointment over the absence of pies on the menu. For a traditional chippy, this can feel like a surprising omission. There may also be occasional longer wait times during peak hours, particularly on Wednesdays at 6 PM when the restaurant operates at full capacity.
Some diners suggest that chips might be slightly fewer than expected, although they still find the portion sizes generally satisfactory. For coeliacs, it’s crucial to confirm gluten-free options ahead of time to ensure a safe dining experience.

A lovely little restaurant on the pier, fabulous views looking across towards Brixham and out to sea. Food quality was excellent, a little surprised that there were no pies, but the fish was superbly cooked. Service was first rate and very friendly. A very enjoyable meal.

Takeaway fish and chips were excellent. Had mini haddock and small chips but chips were more than enough for me. Cooked to order, so nice and hot, crispy fish not too much batter. Really enjoyed.

Had a fantastic experience. The staff were friendly, and the food was delicious. We opted to dine in and enjoyed the seaside view. Ordered mini cod and chips as well as nuggets and chips, both simple yet tasty. Overall, I give it a 5-star rating for its welcoming atmosphere, great service, and delicious food. Highly recommended for a casual dining experience by the sea.

Nov 16. Just had a lovely meal. That's my meal picture. The chips where perfect and the sausage was not overly cooked and really tasty. Well done guys. (There were two girls / lady's at the time.) Thank you for all your information about the place.) Will be coming back for more soon. As I live in Dawlish.
