Had some great meals at the cracking crab. Specifically I had grilled fish one night which was cooked to perfection. The location is absolutely perfect too, overlooking Polzeath beach.

Great food, fabulous view of the beach and sea. It was quiet out of season but I imagine this place will be very popular in season, and deservedly so.

Had the seafood platter, shared between two. There was plenty for the two of us and it was delicious! Having seen other restaurant seafood menus we thought this was well priced for the amount on the plate, variation and flavour. Lovely view and good service

Excellent food, not just your normal basic salad but lots of variety, my friend had the scallops which were cooked very well. And of course great views over polzeath. This is a regular haunt as they also do take away . Plus great hot chocolate for a cooler day watching the world go by

Fantastic views across the beach.

Really wish I’d taken a picture of the massive prawn Marie Rose baguettes we had but unfortunately they were so delicious I just went straight in. The prawns were big, juicy and fresh, the bread was crusty and soft and sauce very tasty and definitely home made. Staff were fab too. The gentleman on the door was lovely, as were all staff. We will be back! Dog friendly too.

Our favourite spot for a delicious lunch. Never much of a wait for a table or food. Fresh food and very friendly service.

Having read some of the other reviews, we feel like maybe we went to a different restaurant, as they were so far from our experience of last night.
The staff were incredibly friendly - amusing even, helpful and very attentive. The food was positively delicious, well presented and all really fresh. Two of us had fish and I have to say I think my rib eye was the best steak I've ever had. A really enjoyable evening and a great start to our holiday...
