The Fish House Fistral

If your road trip has you cruising along Cornwall’s stunning coastline, make sure to swing by the Fistral Beach Fish House in Newquay. Perched just a stone’s throw from the surf, this spot offers a menu as fresh as the sea breeze.

The fish and chips here are a local legend—crispy batter, tender fish, and chips that could make a grown man weep with joy. But don’t stop there; the seafood sharing board is a smorgasbord of delights, perfect for those who can’t decide between the day’s fresh catches. And if you’re feeling adventurous, the smoked mackerel doughnuts with horseradish and herring roe are a must-try.

Given its popularity, especially during the summer months, it’s wise to arrive early to snag a prime spot with a view. While bookings aren’t always necessary, they are recommended to avoid disappointment. And don’t forget to bring your four-legged friend; dogs are welcome at lunchtime, so your pooch can enjoy the seaside vibes too.

Whether you’re a surfer looking to refuel or a traveller seeking a taste of Cornwall’s finest seafood, Fistral Beach Fish House is the place to be.
