With the ocean right on our doorstep, Plymouth serves up some of the freshest and most delicious seafood around. Take a look at ten of the best places in the city to savour the catch of the day.
The Boathouse Café
You can’t get much closer to the water than at The Boathouse Café. Tucked away in the fisherman’s arches beside the historic Mayflower Steps, this family-run café and restaurant celebrates the very best of Plymouth’s seafood. Fresh fish and shellfish come straight from their own inshore boats to your plate, lovingly prepared and cooked to order by their talented chefs. It’s a true taste of the ocean, right where it all begins.
Jolly Jacks
Pop down to Jolly Jacks by the waterfront for a superb seafood meal. The dog-friendly restaurant has cracking views across the water to the Royal William Yard and boasts freshly caught seafood dishes including Seafood Chowder, Crab Linguine, Steamed Cornish Mussels and more.
Rockfish

Situated next door to the National Marine Aquarium, they also offer a local fish menu, which changes daily depending on the catch of the day.
The Harbour
Situated – unsurprisingly – right on the edge of Plymouth’s historic harbour, this restaurant has amazing views. The whole family will be happy to eat at The Harbour, with a kids’ menu and veggie and vegan options alongside plenty of delicious fish dishes – with unique options including seafood tacos, tuna steak and a scallop burger. They also serve up lobster and crab every day if you’re looking for a special treat!
Kuku
Set in a Grade II listed building, just seconds away from the bustle of Plymouth’s city centre, Kuku serves up contemporary Japanese cuisine and is a great place to enjoy fresh fish and seafood in a different way. Grab a seat at the sushi bar and watch the chefs craft elegant and refined foodie masterpieces before your eyes. Share a platter of sushi, or indulge in a fish dish from the robata grill.
Supha's Street Food Emporium
Embrace the bold flavours of street food from Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Malaysia at Supha's Street Food Emporium on The Barbican. Specialising in seafood delights including whole steamed fish, mussels, prawns and crab, the street food favourites bring the big flavours of Asia accompanied by stunning waterfront views.
Pier Master's House

Pier One
Perched right above the waves along the waterfront, Pier One is the perfect spot to soak up sea views over a fresh fish dish or classic fish and chips. Sit inside the stylish glass-fronted restaurant or out on the terrace to enjoy breakfast, brunch, or freshly prepared seafood as the sun sets across the Sound.
The Village
