Updating my review - with actually no significant update. There's not really anything to improve…read more This restaurant is my favourite in Wells (in Norfolk, actually). The ingredients are local, the menu is seasonal and the daily specials are well considered, fresh and all-round delightful. Though I don't drink, I understand the gin (and tonic) selection to be incredible. Whilst definitely not the cheapest place to eat locally, it is more than reasonable with the fresh, local ingredients and the skill obviously put into making them. Most recently I visited and between three of us sampled (read: devoured) some cod cheek tempura, scallops with an avocado purée, sesame tempura prawns, fish & chips and a double-serving of seafood chowder. These were mainly daily specials and so I had requested earlier in the day that they didn't run out of chowder for me. It honestly is the best thing ever. Saying that - as much as I adore chowder - the cod cheeks are amongst the best dishes I have ever tasted. The food is seasoned perfectly. The fish is so well respected in terms of being just-done and the service is so friendly and familiar without being over-bearing. I would always ALWAYS recommend it here. (new photos attached)

Fresh locally caught fish & seafood, excellent quality and very good value - Lobster Sandwich with salad & kettle chips for £7, rollmops with salad for £6 (and too much to eat..) Lovely setting (if the weather is nice!) in a small courtyard behind the Golden Fleece pub, just off the harbour, a white building with blue tables and sheltered from the sea breeze.

If fresh fish is your dish this place is one of the best in North Norfolk. Inside it's a plain and…read moresimple format; good seating, big windows looking out, and two eating areas In the evenings book to avoid disappointment and at the weekends or high season even a breakfast table is a booking must. 90% of the fish served I reckon is locally caught, you choose and then decide how you want it cooked; poached, steamed, pan fried etc then pick your sauce! Very DIY, but a novel approach, the local shell fish and crabs are also a must. Starters are few, but you can cobble together one of your own with a bit of imagination, try a plate of local samphire a.k.a poor man's asparagus with bread and lemon juice for dressing, you'll either love it or hate it, but like Welsh lava bread it has to be tried! Check out their website http://www.fishesrestaurant.co.uk for opening times and if you fancy a bed for the night they offer rooms above on a BB basis, imagine that for a tale yah we had a great weekend, stayed above a fish shop!

Lovely seafood restaurant in downtown Norwich. The staff is warm and friendly and the decoration is…read morea nice balance of old and new. The food is delicious - I recommend the oysters for sure (grown in a Scottish loch!) as well as the monkfish/prawn Thai curry. And a bottle of Sancerre is the perfect compliment! Desserts are creative and delicious, including sticky toffee pudding and a nice selection of sorbets. Only two objections: it gets really hot inside so don't wear a sweater like I did, and the bathroom is yucky.

This pub/restaurant seems to be trading on its past glories. The quality of the fish was very good…read morealthough the chef would seem to be less commited to detail than the person who selected the fish. The decor was 'fisherman' inspired which may not appeal to all - although we do like it. However, it seems best to avoid anything that is not fish or vegeterian as the other dishes can be of variable quality. The price of the food is expensive for Lowestoft but reasonable for those used to paying City prices. We will go back, but will stick to the fish.

I visited on a lunchtime with my wife and two friends, and certainly the quality of the food was first class, we all had a different fish (salmon, sea bream, sea bass and cod). However on arrival we were standing around for some minutes before any attention was paid to us. We hadn't prebooked, yet there were plenty of tables available. We were made to go back into the bar area to be allocated a table number. There as a feeling of general 'surliness' and 'coudn't care less' attitude from several of the staff, making us feel we didnt really want to return, despite the excellent food. What a pity !
