Most Disliked
Some reviews point out that the price tag can feel a bit high for certain dishes, especially when expectations are high along the coast.
Occasionally, the freshness of the fish has been questioned, as some customers felt that being near the sea, the fish should be fresher than it sometimes appears.
A few diners have mentioned that the size distinction between regular and large portions could use some clarification, as the difference seems minimal.
Limited seating may discourage those looking to enjoy their meal on busy days, leading to the possibility of a wait, especially during peak lunch hours.

I had fish and chips with garlic sauce and curry sauce, came up to about 15 pound. (click to read more) Paper bag did not split and seemed very durable. The food was lovely, fish was fine and the batter wasn’t powdery. Portion sizes could be improved upon. Customer service was great, nice and friendly person working behind the counter. Thank you!

Nice food but expensive. Not much difference between a regular and large.

The food was ok, bearing in mind we're 200 metres from the sea the fish was obviously frozen though. Chips were nice, freshly cooked and a good portion size. Mushy peas and curry sauce are also standard fare. The pizza wasn't great, the cheese tasted like cheddar not mozzarella.
