Seafood restaurant in the heart of Hampshire
Back in 2014 our seafood restaurant on the high street in Winchester was our first to open outside of Cornwall. It brings touches of our heritage from the far southwest to Hampshire with Cornish catch delivered daily that Head Chef Chris and our team cook simply to tried and tested recipes. Firm favourites include shellfish ragoût, the attention-grabbing fruits de mer platter and a classic from The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow, turbot hollandaise.
Being on the Winchester high street we’re open for morning coffee until late, so you can stop by whenever you please for something light, a full three course seafood experience or simply a cocktail in the bar if that’s what your day requires.

Origin Coffee: We work with Tom and the team at Origin Coffee and we’re always impressed by their unrivalled knowledge and enthusiasm for great quality coffee. Based down in the west of Cornwall, they are independently owned and bound by one central ethos – to source exceptional coffee through a sustainable approach.
Origin’s speciality coffee is made using only the top 20% of beans in the world, ensuring the very best of flavour.
Our baristas are trained to do each cup of Origin’s coffee justice, using water pressure at 9 bars and 94°C and gravity fed filter coffee. It takes 30 – 50 of the finest coffee beans to make one espresso, and we complement those mighty beans with full fat, high protein milk for a smooth full flavour. Other milk options are available, we recommend oat milk as the best alternative.
