A restaurant that celebrates the splendour of British seafood and produce from local farms.

We are delighted to use the finest of local producers, farmers, and growers of the region. Seafood will always remain our focus. Oysters from Pinneys of Orford, fresh fish from Wightman based in Lowestoft, as well as meat from Salter & King in Aldeburgh, we are incredibly lucky to work with the best.

    Such a lovely vibe in this restaurant, comfortable and relaxing. Service is always great and our roast is main dish was superb with lovely samphire and vegetable sides. They now have a wide selection of lower alcohol cocktails which made having a pre dinner cocktail seem less of an overindulgence! Perfect meal.

    Mushroom tempura had very few mushrooms in it! - samphire was mainly outside the batter Tasted good but not as well finished as expected and lacked mushrooms! Crab Linguini was fab - just a tad salty! Coffee excellent and complimented barrister!

    Excellent! I am not a fish person normally but I thoroughly enjoyed the cod, which had a very subtle and delicious sauce, and was generously portioned. My husband and I both had, and loved, the dressed crab starter; it was also very generously portioned with pleasing accoutrements. (Many places are stingy when you order crab so this was great.) Overall an excellent experience with attentive service and can't wait to come back. A top 5 restaurant in coastal Suffolk.
