General Comments

The Fisherman's Retreat serves what I like to describe as 'Posh Pub Food'. The portions are big enough for a large Elk to go home feeling full and the food is more tasty than Rachel Stevens covered in Chocolate. There is a predominant Fish theme to the menu (Which came as little of a surprise), but they also cater for other palates too, don't be put off if you don't like fish. The most expensive meal on the menu is a T-Bone Steak at £25, which I will be going to try just as soon as I locate someone who's willing to pay for it...

A few minor down points, you have to buy your drinks at the bar, not what you expect when you pay this much for a meal. And there were a few too many kids there for my liking. It's also pretty difficult to find if you don't know where you are going, but all in all it's very nice.

    The Fisherman's Retreat is a family run business, and therefore it should not be a surprise to find that families are encouraged to eat here, including kids! Value for money-wise, it is excellent. I like the fact that you can have anything at any time, so if I feel like a sandwich in the evening rather than a full-blown meal I don't ever feel intimidated into ordering something I don't really want.
