Right on the edge of Poole Harbour, our glass-walled dining room serves up the freshest catch alongside views of passing sails, fishing boats, and the gentle flow of the tide. It’s the kind of backdrop that lets lunch stretch lazily into the afternoon, and by evening, with lights shimmering across the water, it feels like the perfect place for seafood.
This season, lobster is in the spotlight, prepared three different ways to highlight its delicate, sweet flavor. From being grilled with garlic butter, baked into a classic thermidor, or spiced up with vibrant Goa flavors, each dish celebrates just how incredible shellfish from our own waters can be.
Our team is there to share a bit of the story behind each dish, suggest the perfect glass of wine to elevate it, and occasionally add a touch of theatre with food finished right at the table.
Then there’s the harbour, the view that brings it all together, especially as the sun sets and the water shimmers.
