Definitely come here for the Fish & Chips and the lobster. We got the Fish & Chips and the whole lobster grilled in garlic butter for our mains, and I dare say that these two dishes were the best we had ever eaten. The fish is incredibly tender and well-battered, while the lobster is succulent and sweet. We also got the seared scallops with anchovy butter (the butter is really salty but perfect for dipping brown bread in) and the Cullen Skink as our starters (both were good), as well as the broccolini as the obligatory green. All dishes are recommended, but particularly the Fish & Chips and the lobster. Service was fantastic as well, and we felt very welcomed. The only downside to dining here is seating - you either get bar seats or table seats (but the tables are really small). I think bar seats are slightly more comfortable than the table seats, but avoid getting the seats by the door, because you will be hit by a gust of cold air every time someone comes in or leaves.

Great place for seafood and a few glasses of bubbles on the main strip of Finneston. I had oysters, crab cakes, fried squid, scallops and the mussels. All were memorable. The scallops were soft and flavourful. I had both the natural and anchovy butter. I suggest the anchovy butter. Service was good and the place had a cosy feel with a nautical theme. Highly recommend.

We didn’t have reservations and their only big table for 4 is already booked for later. The server was accommodative enough to let us dine-in for an hour. That suited us just fine and we polished off everything really quickly.. because the food was so delicious! The Crab cake has to be my #1 choice - with just the right amount of crab, lemon flavor and condiments resulting in a nice savory balance. Next is their seasonal special spicy fish stew with paprika. This has a lot of heat but in a nice way. Every one of us loved this!

Have been dying to try this place for a while finally got around to it and it didn’t disappoint. The food was pretty decent went for the crab cakes for a started which are tiny definitely recommend the bigger portion. For the Main I went for the half lobsters and it was delicious if you like lobster you will not be disappointed again it was only half a lobster probably could have made do with the whole lobster. My only dislike of the place is how crammed you are in the restaurant it’s all very small and especially sitting at the bar you have the staff facing you and then people right next to with zero space to move and your conversation is basically for the the people next to you to hear. Definitely go back I’m hoping at the back of the restaurant more room and seats that are a bit more relaxing and private to enjoy your food and company
