Visited Captain Hanks whilst staying in Fowey for the week - twice! As it was so unbelievably delicious and so up my street. I love seafood and can honestly say Captain Hanks does not disappoint. The ingredients/produce were so fresh, house made dressings and sauces were so well seasoned and flavourful, overall you can tell the owner has very high standards for her little business. To top it off the view of the harbour is a stunning backdrop. If you’re visiting Fowey this is such a gem, highly recommend!
After reading a lot about Captain Hanks, crab and snack shack in some publications and on social media so I decided to make a special trip down today.
I’m Cornish born and bread and I’m passionate about food. I also held UK braai champion. (yes, I’m a Food junkie) and this boy can cook…
I decided to order crispy cockles popcorn, halloumi fries and coconut cod cheek tacos.
After placing my order, I sat on dockside, drinking one of Holly‘s lovely apple juices, and then indulged in a coffee, the atmosphere here was lovely. Great music playing in the background families enjoying themselves whilst eating (great seeing kids trying and enjoying sea food!) and couples enjoying an alcoholic beverage with their food.
after 12 to 15 minutes The food was ready.
What can I say about the food?
Absolutely out of this world!!! fresh local sea food with fantastic taste explosions !! and in no way greasy at all, everything cooked perfection…
I will be coming back for more from Hanks menu!!
Congratulations holly for creating such fantastic local street food at very sensible price and all this with friendly staff and fantastic atmosphere….
If i could give you more than 5 stars i would as personally i think your food is better than some of the top sea food restaurants in cornwall….
Captain Hank’s is a food van that serves dishes on the edge of the harbour. But when those dishes are cod cheek tacos, grilled scallops and Cornish crab sandwiches with one of the most beautiful views in Fowey, it is well worth the journey. Brilliant and one of the best.
