Jersey, St Brelade - Seafood - Restaurant - ££

Chic beachside venue majoring in local seafood

Overall Rating: Good

Warmth:How warm is the service and the hospitality in general? Very Good

Strength of recommendation:How enthusiastically and widely would you recommend the establishment? Good

Shoehorned in between the coastal road and the promenade above the strand at beautiful St Brelade's Bay, this chic beachside venue makes the most of its location. There are spaces indoors and out, with tables on the terrace strip particularly covetable.

A starter of grilled scallops is served in the shell with parsley and garlic sauce, Jersey cream and samphire, while mains could range from the sustainably sourced ‘catch of the day’ to a roast cod and king prawn curry. Meat and veggie dishes also figure prominently, from duck confit, pork tomahawk steaks and roast sirloin of beef for Sunday lunch to Thai-style cauliflower with green mango. Dessert could be anything from piña colad...

Dessert could be anything from piña colada rice pudding with mango and basil sorbet to hot chocolate and salted caramel fondant. Cocktails, including non-alcoholic variants, are a strong suit, while wines offer decent drinking at fair prices.
