La Caravelle - Table reservation

We visited the restaurant on a wet and windy Sunday, the reception was warm and as we had booked, a window table was provided for a great view. The waitress even offered to put the radiator on for us but it was warm in the restaurant, so not a problem.

We have had lunch here several times and have never been disappointed. The restaurant is located on the harbourside and specialises in seafood. They have a three-course lunch menu with a good range of choices, but most of our group chose to eat from the extensive Carte. Moules cooked various ways are very good, as are dishes like ray wing. Service is very friendly and efficient, and the food is very good value.This is a lovely place to spend a leisurely couple of hours over lunch.

This is a great find. A little off the beaten track but well worth the effort to find it. Booking Sunday lunchtime advisable in the season. All freshly caught local fish as well as other dishes on the menu. Good variety of choice and friendly staff although they don't speak much English.
