Rick Stein Fistral

I’ve given it a 2 as the view was excellent but as for the food , it was not good ! Cod and chips £17.99 if you want peas that’s extra , if you want anything else apart from fish and chips it’s all EXTRA ! The chips had black bits in which is not nice , I had to pick my way through them , the fish was nice enough though , Now Rick , you’re supposed to be a wonderful chef and you know presentation is everything , so just cod and chips on a metal tray is not a good presentation . Maybe I should pop in and show you myself Cod chips peas mushy or garden) slice of lemon tartar sauce offered , this is a meal , and worth £17.99 not your efforts . You’ve had your last penny from me enjoy !

Had fish and chips recently. Was really looking forward to it, fish is normally super tasty by the seaside and Rick Stein (apparently) has a good reputation for amazing fish and chips, can’t say we experienced this though! Extremely overpriced and disappointing. Fish was nothing special with soggy thick batter. Chips were vile, hard and tasted undercooked. I’ve had much better for half the price!

This was the best fish and chips I think I’ve ever had. Quick service, beautiful location even in October. I wasn’t mad about the decor and the furniture was benches so not very comfortable but ok for a quick bite.

Really disappointing restaurant. You're paying for a brand that is not living up to expectations. I had battered bream which was really good, but the chips were grim. They weren't well cooked at all meaning that all three of us left half a plateful each. When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full and several diners were finishing their meals. It took between 10 and 15 minutes for someone to take our drinks order and that was only because I caught the attention of a server. We took the opportunity to order our food then too as we had no idea when the staff would come back over. Staff didn't check in about our food or take any further drinks orders. We got the bill after having to catch someone's attention again and left. We don't expect to return.

Great place to visit. A wide selection of fish and some meat/veg dishes to fall back on. Friendly staff and a great wine list make for a great evening
