"Park in Port Isaac and walk over to this modern timber and glass building with a large, wood-decked terrace, which overlooks the stunning cove where the famous Cornish pilchards were once landed. The menu offers sharing plates crafted from wonderfully fresh local seafood, with whole fish cooked over charcoal a speciality. The chefs have an impressive knack for incorporating intense flavours without overwhelming the purity of the produce – such as the roasted scallop with nduja butter." - Michelin Inspector

Such great food in a beautiful location. We stopped by chance whilst hiking the coast path - we were originally planning lunch at Port Issac but so glad we stopped here instead! We ordered plates for sharing tapas style which was perfect. Great service, and didn't mind that we had massive hiking bags with us!

Had a superb lunch yesterday to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The food was outstanding and the two servers were really friendly and chatty. Price was on the high side but then you are paying for high quality local produce in a beautiful location so felt it was well justified. We live an hour away and will definitely be back!

For a fish restaurant to stand out from the crowd in an area full of fish restaurants takes a very special kind of talent. From start to finish we had a wonderful meal in this outstanding little place - everything is to share. The Cornish Hot Shells were simply amazing, beautifully cooked mussels in a divine sauce with crab claws and a scallop on top - perfect to share between two. Chicken excellent too. Puddings were delicious, both the chocolate and lemon pots. Nice wines. Would highly recommend and very good value.

Gorgeous location! The staff were incredible, with lovely Theresa serving us the delicious food and Tom and Isabel in the kitchen making all of it!! I loved every moment of my lunch there, with kind and helpful staff and incredible food. Will definitely be going back there soon!

Great food, lovely setting, ambience could be better. With the doors shut it was very echoey and the music - 80s pop largely - was much too loud. With a better, quieter music choice it would be much improved. Soho bar Friday night wasn’t the vibe we were after on a Thursday lunchtime in Cornwall

Absolutely loved it! Delicious & fresh food in a cosy setting right by the sea. The team were attentive & helpfully answered any questions we had. We had the oysters, prawns, raw gurnard and lobster. All fantastic Without exaggerating, this is one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. Could not recommend it enough

Went to Pilchards with the family for a late dinner. The food was absolutely superb, cooked to perfection and the cocktails were amazing. The atmosphere was beautiful and the waitress was very helpful and made our experience more enjoyable. She advised us on how to order as we were first time diners and the menu was more like a tapas. I would advise an order of a sharing platter with two sides. If you avoid a sharing platter and choose a small plate then two sides will be plenty enough for one person. I had a small plate of octopus and one side (cornish roast potatoes) wishing I'd ordered bread but my family shared their sides with me so I was all set. The price is what you'd expect from a Michelin star restaurant and the food is very much worth what you pay for it, faultless. Highly recommend!!!
