Rockfish in Plymouth

The hake and haddock were delicious, all the staff were very friendly and accommdating to our 1-year-old baby and even bought her some extra garden peas as she loved them so much. Nicola in particular was very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a delicious meal, we would definitely recommend.

Staff were very accommodating and it was a lovely atmosphere. I like the addition of the menu written on the table. Food was good but nothing phenomenal, just decent fish and chips. Nicola was particularly friendly and very welcoming! Thank you!

Visited on 6 Feb. Wife and stepson had oysters. Both were ill with food poisoning. This does not appear to be the first instance of this. Perhaps food hygiene inspection is warranted again!?

Fantastic as always! Amazing food and lovely service 😊

Waiter Kassie was very attentive and we always had drinks, food came quickly and quick to look after children. Amazing service amazing food Thank You

Absolutely fantastic visit. Jan sat us quickly even though we did not book and Rachel recommended fantastic dishes, including the seafood grill which we have thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you very much.

absolutely amazing food as always- compliments to the chef Dean. would recommend to anyone who wants something quality and great tasting while at the barbican

We ordered a seafood platter for two with two sides, and the portion size was small and too salty. The atmosphere was lovely and there were different types of fish and seafood to choose from.

‏The staff were very nice and polite, and the food had a beautiful presentation. However, after eating there, my husband and I got sick for two days. This makes me question the quality of the ingredients they used.

We came in because of the "kids eat free" offer after a day at the aquarium and I'm glad we did. Food was superb and service excellent -- waitstaff and management took care of us brilliantly. Comfortable and warm restaurant, loved it. Will visit again.

A tidy venue however a normal fish and chips is pricey.

Good fish and chips, service lovely - but really overpriced.

We went for dinner over the Christmas holidays. Excellent food and price in line with the quality. We had already been on two other occasions. Always perfect. The mixed fried fish and vegetables are recommended.

Great service, atmosphere and more importantly food! Oysters were large and plump! Gurnard was nicely charred and the bottomless chips is a cool idea! Creme brulee for desert which was also excellent, oh andbybe olsylist included Nick Drake, Cat Stevens and Richard Hawley so extra points for that!

This was probably our 6th or 7th visit to Rockfish, and it was by far the best, from the warm welcome to the excellent service. The Chablis was very good, and the grilled sardines and mussels were absolutely delicious. The classic haddock and chips were cooked to perfection, as was the fritto misto. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. We also recommend Rockfish to all our guests staying at Hoe Park House, and we’ve received great feedback from them too. Looking forward to our next visit!

Amazing food and all coeliac certified!!!

Had an excellent meal, staff were attentive

Take the best, freshest fish of your choice, cook it to perfection in golden batter, and serve with endless fresh cooked chips ... redefines fish and chips. (And gf to boot!)

Beautifully cooked fish and chips with chilled rosé

Great lunch. Fish and salad were lovely. Wine excellent. Drawback was very sticky and dirty floor and dogs on the table and chairs!

Worth every dime. Amazing food and hospitality❤️❤️❤️❤️Simply best❤️

Visited here as over for the weekend visiting our son @ uni. Wanted to find somewhere colieac safe and Rockfish is colieac uk accredited so felt extremely safe in booking. The server was lovely , explained everything that was available and was very attentive without being over the top. The food was beautiful, the haddock was flakey and so fresh! I personally prefer my batter more crispy and I think a side should come with it - peas or curry that is extra! Great vibe , relaxing and would definitely pay other visit 🤗

This place is amazing!! From the food to the incredibly knowledgeable and friendly staff to the super nice decor and handsoap and lotion in the loos, everything was just lovely. My husband said it was the best fish and chips he's ever had and he's had a lot of fish and chips! Everything was delicious. Can't wait to come back again and try more of the menu.

The food is very expensive for what you get ,the service is very poor,the floor needs a bloody good clean.I would not recommend this to anyone,and I won't be going back myself.

Great seafood restaurant near the National Marine Aquarium. Seafood platter was fresh and varied. Grilled Dover Sole was melt-in-the-mouth.

The best seafood restaurant I’ve been to in a long time - even ever. Menu based on catch of the day - the trawlers unloading right outside the window where you are sat eating that mornings catch - a great variety of fish that you don’t see in many restaurants and amazing wine :) not enough stars to rate how much this place is worth ….

Best battered fish I've ever had. Chips were ok and unlimited which was great.

Very good as always. One of our group is coeliac and it caters well for her. Our starter was disappointing we should have said at the time I know, we were asked, we didn't want to spoil the atmosphere (rather chewy tiny prawns tempura only 6! ) but everything else was great. Service really good and attentive

Lovely food, everyone enjoyed their meals (especially the refillable chips). One of our party was in a wheelchair and moved around the restaurant with ease.

Pleasant service. Struggled to get their credit card machine to work. Very quickly just gave us the coffee on the house while they went to fix it. Good service 👏

Sadly very disappointing. Both my wife who is vegetarian and myself who isnt, joked that we might have Covid due to the food being so tasteless. Not only was the food poor, it was over priced for what it was, an over priced want to be posh chip shop. The two star rating was only given due to the attentive and pleasant staff. The only restaurant we have been in Plymouth that we would not go to again.

Never been in a fish and chip restaurant like it and it so much more. 😋

Absolutely shocking. Shows as being open for takeaway on Google. Turn up, sign says order takeaway from restaurant. Restaurant staff have to get further advice from the chef who says takeaway is closed and you have to pay restaurant prices if you want food. Girl hands you a menu. What a joke!!! 3 times this has happened now. Shocking.

Always my favourite seafood spot in Plymouth, we had a lovely meal here with my parents and husband. Food was delicious, staff was great (shoutout to Becky!) despite a mishap having forgotten one of our meals. This was quickly resolved.

A family favourite, great local fish and a lovely atmosphere. Kid friendly venue, my daughter loves the prawns, anchovies and fish options - turns out she likes Ray wing too and anything else I've ordered for myself! They do a good value mid-week catch of the day menu which is worth exploring, as well as options to order bottomless chips with your meal. Overall highly recommended.

Lovely food and fantastic service by Becky, plenty of choice with the food and drinks. So glad we chose to go to rockfish and we will definitely be going there again.

Very attractive and scenic restaurant, sadly largely empty for a Saturday night. Easy to miss for tourists, I guess. Perfectly cooked fish dishes and friendly, attentive service.

Becky our server was amazing , friendly and knowledgeable- We had delicious food and an amazing time, will definitely be returning.

The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful. They could use a few more drinks options as two of our party found it very difficult to find something they wanted (maybe a few more spirits and mixers)

Fantastic food, freshly cooked to order

Food is 5 stars: first of all fish and chips are free for kids and second of all the food really is amazing and super fresh (and chip refills are free too! ) Service is 5 stars: waitresses are so kind here and the food came very quickly despite the fact there were a couple other people there. We also asked for a window seat and she gave us a really beautiful seat right next to the window in the corner ! Atmosphere is 5 stars: The views are so cool and we were watching the boats It’s very spacious and clean and well kept. The toilets are cool too and there is nappy changing station there. Only thing I’d improve is providing sanitary products like tampons or pads for females.

Highly recommend! The food was incredible and the service excellent! They took my son’s order first and it arrived super fast, which is brilliant as two year olds aren’t great at waiting! And due to a miscommunication on our part, we even left with free chips. Couldn’t have been better.

We had a lovely meal today. Nothing was too much trouble for our server (and forgive me I didn’t get her name) but she was friendly, chatty, knowledgeable about the menu & an absolute treasure! The whole meal is elevated when you get great customer service and she delivered in spades. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Food much better than your restaurant in Exeter. First girl who seated us and gave us full information on daily specials was great. Next server was rubbish. Never asked if everything was OK, never asked if we wanted more drinks or dessert. We called her over to order more chips. She forgot all about them. When I mentioned this when I asked her for the bill she said 'Oh Yeah'. No apology, don't care attitude. Tried two different restaurants not, will not be visiting again and would not recommend.

Great service from a helpful staff member and five star fish and chips were served and eaten!

Fantastic grilled sea bass and tacos.

Really nice sitting outside and eating really nice fish and chips. On selected Fridays there is a fish and chips special for only £3, excellent quality and value. The Friday deal is now £5 for haddock and chips, half price meal and excellent quality and value. Now the traditional Friday is on a Tuesday, absolutely excellent as always. Whitefish tonight, what a delicious treat.

Very nice food at Rockfish. Delicious Brill with homemade Tartar sauce! The pack they make for kids (£1) is very good and kept our little ones happy. Service could have been more attentive given how quiet it was.

rockfish rules, you’re the best guys

I used the take away with their once a month £5 deal. Worth it Cannot comment on the restaurant

A great restaurant, high priced but good quality food. Compared to other eateries in Devon/Cornwall the fish dishes are above averagely priced. However, fish and chips (hake) is a decent portion and service here is great. It is a scenic spot with views over the harbour/marina.

We really enjoyed our meal here! I am not a big seafood lover but my partner was desperate to go here so we went one evening and I’m so glad we did. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the food was delicious and came out quickly and the restaurant is just lovely, really nice interior and the location isn’t half bad either.

Excellent restaurant serving really fresh fish. I visited twice for dinner, then lunch. Friendly and helpful staff. Will visit again.

This was recommended by the hotel we stayed at for an evening. The food was OK somewhat expensive for what you got The service was OK; the staff were not very interested in the customers considering they were not exactly that busy.

Great fiver fish and chip night. Will definitely go back next month, such a bargain and very tasty fresh fish.

Cheap take away that doesn't sacrifice quality. Follow their social media accounts for opening times. Great view of Plymouth sound!

Had a lovely family time at Rockfish. It's light airy with fabulous views, we had a table with a view of the boats sailing by. We all chose differently and everyone's food looked and tasted delicious. Several families there, all having good time. Fab place.

Bad and rude service, fish & chips were good but the rest of the food was very mediocre and tasteless. Wouldn’t recommend this venue

Let's see the Frito misto for £23 very poor, 2 piece of each, I was starving after 1 hours, yes you have unlimited chips... But I don't come to a place like this to eat unlimited chips... Very poor, my friend asked Norwegian fish and chips.. £19 with the outside in very poor breadcrumbs... Much better fish and chips of Wetherspoon to be honest. The girls very nice, that is true. And beer... Local small can beer from Cornwall... £4.50 , not very cold and 330ml. Well. But the price with the quality and quantity of the food... It was not worthy.

We stopped in after visiting the aquarium and the staff were very accommodating finding a table for 8. We had the rock fillets and haddock and it was delicious. Our kids ate free and the unlimited chips were a great touch. Everything came out hot and fresh and the service was quick and the staff were super friendly. If you’re in Plymouth it’s absolutely worth a visit. Thank you for a great experience.

Came in today and luckily they had a table available for me and my son. We both had fish and chips which was delicious and the best I’ve had in a long time. I also ordered the mushy peas with curry sauce and wow this was amazing! The waiting staff were all lovely. Couldn’t fault anything. We’ll be back again soon to try something else on the menu!

Visited this evening with my husband and had a lovely experience! Wonderful service from Jen, who looked after us - very helpful and nothing too much trouble. The food was lovely, and they were very accommodating for gluten free. I highly recommend the plaice grilled in garlic butter if it’s available. The bottomless chips were a nice touch too, especially seeing as my husband has a never ending appetite!

Wonderful selection of fresh fish available and the service was amazing

Cod was absolutely beautiful, crisp light batter as well. Excellent.

Had the fresh brill. It tasted delicious and so fresh. Loved the unlimited fries. Good service too, thanks.

Our second visit to eat in the outside area. The food is lovely, with generous portion sizes. The staff are friendly and helpful.

Lovely fish and chips served in a great location and stunning views.

We ate in the outside area with a great value Haddock & chips. Quick friendly service, good food, even the utensils supplied were ok. Definitely recommend if the weather is good.

We were able to be seated by the window as walk-ins. Lovely views. The waitress was really friendly and accommodating. My brother had cod and I had the hake. Very fresh fish and both beautifully cooked. Reasonably priced for the quality.

Great fresh fish, top service and we loved the Ocean Protector pack and the unlimited chips.

Fantastic place to visit great food great view

First visit here. Very impressed. Could not fault staff. Food was excellent. Sea Bream had perfect crispy skin, Greek salad just devine. Fritto Misto also highly recommended. Toilets clean. Will be back.

Rockfish has become a family tradition- we come here least twice a year on our biannual visits to Devon. This time we had some car problems and Klaudia our server was totally fantastic at providing plenty for us to eat and drink and keep our son entertained whilst we waited for our car to be fixed. The food as always was fabulous- it is firm favourite and we will continue to come back- We just wanted to say a HUGE thanks to Klaudia you were brilliant and helped us out and made it possible for us to stay longer than the allocated time in a time of crisis. Would give 6 stars if we could

Brilliant service, Food and atmosphere as usual. The Megrin was superb, especially. Great selection of fish dishes and drinks.

I loved it so much that I booked for a special occasion while I was there. The staff was really attentive, the food wow! I went for Lobster and Mussels and both were amazingly tasty and fresh. Nice bottle of sparkling ✨️ to go with 🥂 and to finalise a lemon tart and a Brownie so yummy. I'm returning for my 25th wedding anniversary 💕

A good place to eat fish in Plymouth although it's a bit expensive. The staff is very attentive to customers.

Our favourite seafood restaurant in Plymouth! Been here many times now and have always had good food, service and times!

Food was good, the chips could be better, to dry and hard even though you can have as much as you like. Location fantastic, recommend all the same.

Over priced , adult cod was nice but the kids fish had really thick skin on it still. Of course kids being kids wouldn't touch their food after this. So it went in the bin. 50 quid was far too much for 2 pieces of fish and 2 kids fish n chips in my opinion

Delicious food & amazing service! great spot for date night, we had a great time - can't recommend enough! Can't remember our server's name but she was lovely :)

Amazing experience this afternoon at rockfish Plymouth served by Elouise, Gerda and Jen and the service was so attentive I can’t compliment it enough We sat on the terrace in the Sun In beautiful surroundings and had 3 courses including the best oysters and scallops we’ve ever tasted! The sugrue sparkling Pinot noir was amazing as was the nyetimber and paired perfectly with the ray wing and dressed crab that we had for mains. We spent roughly 3 hours grazing and enjoying our wine and I believe this is the best place In plymouth for fresh seafood and amazing service. Thank you rockfish Plymouth for an amazing afternoon.

I came for dinner for my first time and it was my graduation meal, I was served by Rachael and she told us everything we needed to know about wine selection, fish on the menu and the special selection for the day. The wine was amazing and we got a full 3 course meal where everything was cooked to perfection and some of the best seafood I have ever had! For the best seafood and best customer service come here!

Sorry. But not worth it. Pretty small portions and really basic cooking. Too expensive for what you get. Can not recommend it and will not come again.

First taste of Megrim or Torbay Sole and very nice it was too. Also curried mushy peas !

Nice clean restaurant, food was really good, I especially enjoyed the bottomless chips. The staff were well, well informed, and made us feel welcome. My only disappointment was that there was no cod and had to try their rock fish, which wasn't as nice as cod.

A good tasty meal in pleasant surroundings

The service was for the most part fairly good, however there was a wait on both drinks and food. Unfortunately this wait was not made worthwhile as much of the food was waterlogged and lacking in flavour, while the drinks were not brilliant either and were generally expensive. One of the meals had to be taken off the bill as it was considerably below the standard we expected and we were given free dessert as compensation, however we both left the restaurant hungry and had to grab a quick sandwich elsewhere. It is unfortunate as we were really looking forward to it but we are not enthusiastic about visiting any Rockfish sites in future. We were sat outside for a while and someone's toddler was charging around kicking things under our table which was not ideal when we were trying to enjoy the wine.

Fish was cold and food was overpriced.the portions were smaller than expected. The atmosphere is delightful however the food quality has change dramatically in the last 5 years. Anna

Delicious ice creams, we had the lemon sorbet and salted caramel flavours, and one portion of fish and chips. It was huge, so easily big enough to share. Lovely view too. Very kind staff, we were able to sit down while food was cooking, and in the end it was so nice there that we stayed to eat, despite initially buying it to take away. Would recommend.

Very good fish and chips but a little expensive.

I had the char grill sea bream and it was superb! The service was very good and the price was more than fair. I'm glad to see that they have really upped their game recently.

Great food in all Rockfish restaurants. But our server in Plymouth, Elouise, was even better than the already great food. Thank you so much People make places 😊

Klaudia is very personable and knowledgeable. Amazing service!

Very over priced. The sea bream and salad was served on a breakfast plate and the salad was not any where substantial for the price For a resteraunt which shouts fresh fish, their menu has tinned fish, and seafood from other areas of the UK and further afield. Yes do have some limited locally caught seafood too. The tables wobble so it was like being at sea, but the bit I liked was the parody shipping forecast which is played in the toilets. We will not be coming back

An amazing evening with incredible food and top notch service. Thank you!

Food lovely, service efficient and friendly but I really do feel a complete meal should be given when paying 30 quid for a piece of fish, maybe the choice of sides selection could be included in the price. It still remains one of my favourite places to eat!

Been a few times, the food is great everytime. Recommend highly !

Delicious food, and even on that grey day, we been happy good place to visit 👌

We got the fish fry which looked like scraps and discarded pieces of other dishes plus the portion was half a plate for £24. Never that place again.

Overpriced ,£39;95 lemon sole REALLY !!!not much choice when we went. Order arrived without chips and salad. Girlfriend had eaten half the fish before salad arrived. Daughter unimpressed with chicken. Haddock was nice but the experience didn't match the price .
