The Seafood Restaurant

One of the most iconic seafood dining experiences in the UK is at The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow, Cornwall, founded by celebrated chef Rick Stein in 1975. This renowned establishment is the cornerstone of Stein’s culinary empire and is famed for its dedication to ultra-fresh seafood. Situated by the stunning Camel Estuary, the restaurant offers a classic yet refined seafood menu. You can indulge in luxurious dishes like lobster thermidor, roasted turbot with hollandaise, or enjoy simpler yet impeccably executed classics such as fish and chips fried in beef dripping.

What makes dining at The Seafood Restaurant special isn’t just the incredible menu, but the ambiance. You can opt to sit at the bar and watch oysters being shucked and champagne poured, or dine on the rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the estuary—a perfect combination of top-tier seafood and coastal beauty.

Stein’s passion for sustainability is evident in the restaurant’s sourcing of local produce, ensuring that every meal reflects the best of Cornish waters. Whether you’re a seafood enthusiast or simply love great food in a picturesque setting, The Seafood Restaurant offers an unforgettable experience.
