Limited but still all-round enthusiastic feedback this year for Fred & Donna Beedles’s low-key operation, in a parade of shops away from the harbour. The menu is a two-course or three-course à la carte, whose seeming straightforwardness belies the skill of the cuisine.

“Not been here for a few years… I had forgotten how exquisite the food was” – this “serene”, long-established venue in a low-key parade of shops is one of the area's more enduring culinary destinations. Run by the Beedles – “Fred makes some incredibly inventive dishes and his cooking is as reliable as ever. Wife Donna keeps everything calm front-of-house. The wine list has some unusual entries and is well-priced”.

“A first-class, high-quality restaurant, small scale with lovely ambience and excellent food” – owners Fred & Donna Beedle have earned widespread recognition since opening in a parade of shops 11 years ago, and their standards are both lofty and consistent. There’s also a “good wine list with excellent and very reasonable house wines”.

“Still a favourite” – Fred & Donna Beedle’s intimate, well-established restaurant (est. 2010) surpasses its humdrum setting, on a parade of shops, with its fine modern British cuisine.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
