If you live in Nottingham or visit it often, when you think of a seafood restaurant you probably…read morethink of Loch Fyne. You probably shouldn't. Take a wander up Mansfield Road, or probably better still, hop on a bus or jump in a cab, as The Lobster Pot is quite a way up. It is worth going out of your way for though. This small restaurant in my opinion is the best fish / seafood place in the city (not that there are many to choose from), and it is a shame that it isn't closer to the city centre. Still, if it were, then the prices would probably be higher to cover higher overheads on property. I am a big fan of mussels, and this place does them wonderfully. Their menu has a good choice of fish and shellfish dishes and a small selection of meat dishes in case anybody in your party isn't keen on seafood. As far as I know though, there aren't any vegetarian options...at least, there weren't the last time I checked their menu online. Some of the dishes have an oriental bent, such as the thai fishcakes, prawn spring rolls and sesame prawn toast starters, but there are plenty of 'regular' seafood dishes. My personal favourites at this place are the smoked haddock chowder as a starter, a hearty, creamy soup which is quite filling in itself, filled with chunks of smoked fish and potato as it is. I then like to have a main course of mussels, usually the ones steamed in chilli and basil, although the more traditional Moules Marinieres are also great. A side dish of french fries goes wonderfully with them. I also sometimes indulge in a couple of fresh oysters, which can be bought individually. Two of these with a splash of tabasco sauce are enough for me as I find them quite rich, I could never eat a full portion as a main course. Various forms of salmon are well represented on the menu, although I have never sampled them myself. There is usually a specials board on display, giving options that don't appear on the regular menu. The restaurant boasts some very reasonably priced wines, with a bottle of house wine costing just under ten pounds, and plenty of others around 11 and 12 pounds. As this is a small place, I would suggest calling to book, especially at weekends and in the Christmas period. Another point in this place's favour is that during the festive period, they keep their regular menu on, instead of forcing a "special" Christmas menu upon you as many restaurants seem to. With the price of different fish and seafood varying so much, it is hard to give an average cost for a meal here, however I do believe with this place that you get what you pay for, and i've never found myself feeling bad about the money i've put down. Seriously, if you are serious about seafood, forget about Loch Fyne. The Lobster Pot wins, claws down!

They were quick behind the counter, though. They had a lot of options with fish cake, pies, and all the different sides and sauces, but I got a standard fish & chips. The fish was huge, flakey, delicious. It came as a set meal with the chips an even with mushy peas so you don't have to order separately. I also got my favorite chips with curry sauce, which was nice and the sauce came on the side and kept really hot and nice over my trip home. Overall, quite pleased. If you're in the West Bridgford area and looking for some good takeaway fish & chips, head over to George's. I may even go again during my stay here, especially since they also put a buy-one-get-one-free coupon in your bag :)

I came across this by accident on my travels a couple of months ago and just had a quick takeaway of fish and chips which was excellent. I noticed the large busy restaurant on the side and decided to try a proper lunch when I got the chance. So, last week I popped in and what a lovely meal I had. Good quality, large haddock with great chips and mushy peas with tartare sauce - all cooked to perfection. As its licenced, I also had half of amstel lager and a soda water as thirsty £10.03. More than I would usually pay for a quick lunch but this is a top quality place and I'd promised myself this treat. The place itself is very new looking (see photo's and their own website) and was nearly full with diners. I will have to visit again and urge anyone passing Ripley on the A38 who needs a food break to give this place a try whether for a quick takeaway or proper sit down meal. Its only 10 mins from Derby and its main roadside stopover McDonalds so I will never feel the need to stop there again. Full range of starters from £2.50, main courses are around £6 £9, desserts around £3. Give it a go guys. Menu: http://www.seafishrestaurant.co.uk/Main%20Menu%20&%20Christmas.pdf

Not being a fan of haddock I was impressed with how fresh and perfectly cooked it was.

Sam, our waitress, took great care of us and the local pale ale was a fantastic accompaniment to the meal. Almost forgot to mention the black pudding - it was excellently paired with a perfectly made curry sauce! I would come back to Nottingham on my next trip just for this place alone!

Example: my udon noodles came with a fried egg, they actually put the egg in its own little container to keep it intact, and it arrived with the yolk still runny, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? I'm so impressed. I polished off the edamame, simple but yum, wasn't a huge fan of the weird seaweed garden salad thing - it had a creamy sauce on it and a bunch of other things that weren't seaweed. I didn't realize it's like, literally a garden salad you'd get as a side, with seaweed on it plus some creamy sauce. I picked all the seaweed out to nom on, and the fresh avocado, didn't want the rest. On to the next on on to the next... Korean Bibimbap Seafood Udon. YUM. Big fat slurpable noodles - check. Tangy kimchi - check. Mixed seafood including mussels, prawns, fish cake - check. Aforementioned perfect fried egg dotted with seaweed - check. Veggies like carrots, courgette, mushrooms - check. Meal in a bowl! Filling, wonderful, and I have to say slurpable again because it was the slurpablest ever. Aside from the kimchi, the broth tasted like nice broth, but not like "omg this is so Korean and unusual," and it wasn't super spicy, however it was an incredibly well-assembled dish, everything fresh and perfectly texture. Totally addicting, I kept eating it even after I was full because I would leave no noodle untouched. Can't speak for what the restaurant is like, but delivery was super fast on a Tuesday night, and I can't even believe how hot and fresh the food arrived. This udon soup is the perfect cure for a rainy winter night, you should go get some right now.
