Billy Winters

Visited with my wife for Friday Fish and not disappointed. Great food, great service and a pleasant atmosphere right on the beach.

Chill spot. Yummy crab. Can recommend burger. Cute design. Nice staff. Pretty view outside. I will come back definitely. Lovely food 🦀

Such a hidden gem! Fresh seafood, glorious cocktails with a spectacular view ... And free parking! We loved it so much that we returned the next day. 10/10 would recommend.

Lovely chilled out beachside diner. Nice food, great service and the view out over the sea is lovely

Lovely views across the water. Surfy interior with a relaxed feel. We had fish and chips it was excellent. Staff were so lovely.

Luxurious food in a non intimidating environment. We had two local oysters and mussels in an excellent white wine sauce (pictures), fish and chips with locally caught fish, margherita pizza and a strawberry milkshake. It was all perfecktly cooked. The beach bar looked great and the view along the coast is breath taking.

Bottom line up front: Go for the location and vibe, not necessarily the food or value for money. The location is great, in the summer you couldn't ask for better really. And it's really easy to access by car, with free parking. Obviously, not very warm in the winter (but we expected that so dressed accordingly). The food was, okay. The pizza was pretty good although half way through I did have the realisation that it is very expensive at £17.50 without sides. The fish Friday seemed to offer genuine value at £6.50. The service was okay.

This is an amazing little place. There is an outdoor seating area with its own bar, a large marquee to the side of the main restaurant with an array of wooden seating and large picnic tables and a small indoor seating area. I have read many reviews complaining about poor service, and I did not see this at all. The staff were attentive and helpful. It is quite a relaxed environment, so if you are one of these entitled people who think the world revolves around them maybe not the place for you. Drinks were nice, food was amazing. Monkfish tacos had a variety of wrap types, burger was stunning. I had squid rings but my kids liked them so much I hardly had any. Pardon peppers special was extra nice. My favorite part was paying when you order so we could just leave when we were ready. I’d give this place more than 5* if it was possible.

Note: Billy Winters is closed on a Monday and Tuesday. They don't even have the sign out front on those days, so it's easy to drive past and miss it. When they are open though ... Well, what can I say - I've toured a lot of towns and cities in the USA and I'm a huge fan of the dive bar. This place is the closest thing to a beach / dive bar I've found in the UK, just sadly missing a bit of the dive as it was well lit, clean and my shoes didn't stick to the floor. You can bring your own dive by visiting on a wet and windy day and trying to eat outside if you're desperate though :) The range of food on the menu isn't massive, but what they do do, they do do well. Everything that the three of us in my party had there (on both visits) was great. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the beers were cold. The cocktails were excellent - visiting from London, I wasn't sure what to make of the 'liquid to ice' ratio - I'm used to a cocktail being mostly ice with a dash of £10 spirit over the top, but these ... these were cocktails that you could actually drink instead of sucking on! The view is spectacular too. Depending on the time of day, you'll get to watch stand up paddlers fall down, kite surfers touring the harbour or just watch the sailboats and navy tubs. Between the Pizza and the slow cooked things, I'l have a hard time making a choice when we go back. But no matter what I have, I'm having a side of the sweet potato fries! It was very hard to believe that this is owned by the same person who owns and runs the Crab House Cafe just down the road. But that's a topic for a different review, and I'm hungry now ...
