Harden's survey result
Summary
“Wonderful crab and lobster” and “beautifully cooked, really fresh fish” are on the menu at this 19th-century former brick kiln in a “great setting on the cliff overlooking the sea”, which was converted into a restaurant 10 years ago by local traditional fisherman Richard Matthews and his wife Alison.
Summary
“You can’t get fresher than the beautiful seafood” at this clifftop perch “in a wonderful setting overlooking the sea”, run by local lobster and crab fisherman Richard Matthews and his wife Ali. “The freshly caught crab is delicious”, and last year they added a range of vegan options to the menu.
Summary
“Caught by dad, served by the family” – Richard & Alison Matthews serve seafood “fresh out of the sea” at their “fish restaurant located in an old brick kiln on the cliff top between East and West Runton”. “He catches the fish, crabs and lobsters daily” – “simply the best offerings with excellent service and ambience”.
Summary
Launched in 2015 after Richard (a fisherman) & Alison Matthews spotted the potential of a derelict brick kiln, a “lovely” seasonal shellfish specialist where “they catch most of their menu daily”, and it's then “served overlooking the sea”; “there is also a shop on site which sells a wide selection of their produce”.
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).
