Perched on the hillside offering panoramic views of The Cobb and Jurassic Coast, The Oyster & Fish House is arguably the most picturesque spot in Dorset to enjoy locally sourced fish and seafood. A large terrace wraps around the informal, light and airy dining room offering the perfect al fresco experience with unrivalled views of the coastline. We support our local fishermen, so you may often see them bringing their catch up to the restaurant. In addition to a selection of snacks and starters, you can expect simply grilled fish on the bone, and of course, the delicious Dorset oysters and shellfish we have on our doorstep. The menu can change twice a day depending on what the fishermen bring to us. Please note we do not serve meat dishes, but we do have vegetarian, vegan and kids dishes available.Large tables are welcomed, and for bookings of 8 or more we do ask you to pre-order your meal.Please note we only accept card payments

Overlooking the beautiful garden, it’s the ideal place for that special occasion.Our mouth-watering seasonal menus are complimented by a stunning selection of wines. In summer, why not head outdoors for dinner. Sample a bubbling, stone-baked pizza, fresh from our authentic wood fired oven. It’s the kind of food that makes warm evenings magical. Especially served with a locally brewed, ice cold cider.We cater for all, so let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements. If you love food like we do, book now or give us a call.

    Easily found by following signs from the A35, just east of Axminster. Felt welcomed, service was friendly and informal. Fairly limited choice, but quite reasonable for a small venue with a single chef. And I was tempted by everything on the menu. Opted for two-course lunch, which was excellent value. Thoroughly enjoyed our food. Presentation was spot-on. I particularly liked it that the dishes on offer seemed to be ones I could aspire to prepare myself, given inspiration, the recipes and a lot of practice, rather than "fine dining", very much in line with the River Cottage ethos. We intend to return to enjoy other meals in future.
