Crab Shack On The Beach

Go back to fresh fish cooked how you like it….. chain restaurants like Rockfish are better. I hate leaving average reviews too.

Delicious food and very attentive service. We stayed in the flat above a few years ago but just visited the restaurant this time. We had The Hake and mussels for main and faultless, great portion size. We booked ahead to secure a table a lovely intimate atmosphere with friendly staff.

Simply put, you must go to this restaurant. Indulge in their family deal featuring some of the best seafood I've ever tasted. Unbelievable. They also offer a great selection of wine.
