Perched on the hillside offering panoramic views of The Cobb and Jurassic Coast

The Oyster & Fish House is arguably the most picturesque spot in Dorset to enjoy locally sourced fish and seafood. A large outdoor terrace wraps around the informal, light and airy dining room with floor to ceiling windows offering a view to every guest while enjoying our freshly caught fish and seafood.

Our menu can change twice a day depending on what the fishermen have brought us so please note that our menu online is simply a seasonal sample menu of what you can expect when dining with us.

Sadly The Oyster & Fish House will be closing on 7th December, however, it is ‘business as normal’ until that date, should you wish to dine with us in November or December.

We are open 4 days a week.
Please arrive at the time of your booking, as we do not have a bar area if you arrive early.
Please note that we no longer accept AMEX payments
