Keep an eye out for special offers as they have a hotel here to and often offer some great deals on food and a bed for the night.

The place is spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, child friendly and most importantly serves amazing food. We went back quite a few times. We tried a lot of dishes and every single one was delicious. They are famous for the award winning crab cakes but there is so much more to enjoy here. The fish and chips, the crab avocado crayfish stacks, the seafood medley, the seafood salad, the crab sandwiches. I could go on and on. (Tip: try their wonderful choice of prosecco- a stunner!)

Located right on the sea front, car park at the back (a bit tight), location is excellent.

Full range of drinks and you can stay there too. Highly recommended.

The barmaid asked if she wanted doubles and my wife said yes again. The barmaid poured the cognac and placed in nice glasses over hot water. She then charged my wife £58!!!! Yes £58. When my wife queried it she said "Well it's XO and it's £12.50 per measure - I did show you the bottle!" Unbelievable and not the way to upsell. So, £25 per drink! Ok, then. We went there quite regularly when on the island - as did family. None of us will be going back so they've lost good business. It's not the way to treat people. Oh, by the way, they had regular cognac on the shelf at £4 per measure. Nice. Honest. Spoiled a birthday. Should be ashamed.

The ambience is lovely, quaint and warm. Fresh fish of the day can be seen in the front window, skilled chefs are working away and a couple of water tanks for the live seafood are visible from the dining room. I had a crab soup which was surprisingly delicious, similar to a lobster bisque. Fresh bread started us off, warm from the oven and soft inside. I chose a special of the day, the fish was tender and flavourful, melting off the bone and infused with lemon and capers. My partners dish of hake with risotto was absolutely delicious, something I'd order if I were to go back. All In all a lovely dining experience in a scenic location. Make sure you book to avoid disappointment!

Having just returned from a visit to family in the States, the Coronavirus lockdown had just begun as we moved down to Chichester for several months to look after my ailing father-in-law. One of the highlights during his closing months was a trip out to what he deemed as "one of the finest & chip shops he'd ever seen in years." I'm happy to say he was right. Moby's was open both before and just after the height of lockdown, maintaining the same high standards with their food and hygiene as ever. Their portions are generous and the fish is lovely. We made a few visits there as my partner's father enjoyed the outing and the staff were an absolute dream. I expressed my appreciation to them after he left us and we've made a number of visits back since. Many thanks to Moby's and the team there, who come with our hearty recommendation!

Initially put off by the expensive Clifton price tag, I now can't believe I've stayed away for so long. (Or at least not noticed that they do a lunchtime offer!)

The Rockfish is suited for those with a few bob to spend, who appreciate quality food for good money. The restaurant menu changes every day, depending on what was caught the day before; you select the fish of your choice and a seperate side along with recommended accompanying wines and other drinks. If you're feeling a little strapped for cash, come before seven for the set menu (£15 for two courses, £20 for three), which is really good value for what's on offer. Also don't forget to visit the shop, which sells the freshest fish around. What a treat!
