Shoals Seafood Restaurant is the brainchild of Sean and Sarah Perkes. Established in 2014, the once storage room for the open air seawater pool has been transformed into a unique fish lovers dream. The small family run restaurant and outside terrace provide beautiful coastal views across the bay and beyond.

    Outstanding in every way. The freshest fish cooked to perfection. The Chowder has to be tasted, gloriously decadent.

    First visit to Shoals and what a gem. Food and service were fantastic, can highly recommend. Weather was miserable but can imagine this a great place in summer.

    A perfectly small and delicious menu of mainly fish and seafood, exactly what we’d hoped for. Well done Shoals.

    Our second visit - the first was on a visit to Devon 2 years ago. The restaurant is still as good. Perfect fish cookery and an amazing view across the bay.
