SeaRock Restaurant & Takeaway in North Somerset

Very busy restaurant/take away but staff all worked well. Good for value chip shop food.

Great food and experience. Will definitely be back

The food and service were excellent here. We had a family celebration, and everyone enjoyed the fresh and tasty seafood. The ambience was lovely, and we were well cared for. Thank you!

Had an amazing meal at Sea Rock! The place has a really nice, laid-back atmosphere, perfect for enjoying good food and relaxing. From the moment I walked in, the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I ordered the fish and chips along with the crispy squid, and both were absolutely spot on. The fish was crispy on the outside and perfectly flaky inside, and the batter was light and full of flavor. The chips were fresh and cooked just right, and the crispy squid had the perfect crunch while still being tender. Everything was seasoned really well, and you could tell it was made with care. For dessert, I went for the Oreo sundae, and it did not disappoint. It was creamy, chocolatey, and packed with Oreos, making it the perfect sweet treat to finish off the meal. Every bite was a mix of crunch and smooth ice cream, and I could have easily eaten another one! The service was great too. The staff were really attentive without being over the top, always making sure everything was good. It’s always nice when you feel genuinely looked after in a restaurant. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the whole place had a great vibe. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Really good fish and chips in taste and value AND you can eat it in The Sirens pub next door ❤️

Went for Lunch I had the rolled pork belly roast. The best I have tasted in a long time The portions are very generous I could barely finish my meal. Definitely a recommendation for a Sunday roast

Very nice food on the special i would return to try other things ,pleasant young staff ,excellent surroundings, reccomended

A large group of us visited to eat in. We pre booked . The service was quick and efficient. Although we had a variety of food orders, these were served to the correct diners. Food was delicious, plentiful and good value for money. Always guaranteed a warm welcome and food never disappoints.

Beautiful location, fabulous food, brilliant service & wonderful staff. We had fish curry & the codfather burger. So so tasty, cooked to perfection. Thank you

Very good restaurant and one of my favourites when I visit the area. Always a winner.

This is the most consistently excellent fish and chips I’ve ever known! But more than that the specials for seafood are brilliant, the staff are superb and the location and view pretty good. On top of that the honest price seems a bargain! Very happy to recommend Sea Rock, and I actually have to a view visitors looking for good food.

We had a table of 9 for a weekday evening and the food and service was spot on! Thanks for having us and I look forward to returning!

Great food, one of the best dishes in my life, my wife and daughter were also very pleased. Perfectly seasoned and fresh food. Mega portions and great service. We left there with a smile. We will definitely go back there and recommend it to everyone.

I was overjoyed when I asked about gluten free options and the lovely server told me they had gluten free battered fish! I haven’t had it for years because of my intolerance and it was so good! Thank you for catering to us GF folk! My husband had the whitebait and loved them too. P.S. This was a ‘small’ portion and I’m still full hours later 🙂

Well done SeaRock. As a family we enjoyed our Winter Warmer. In a cosy atmosphere. Excellent food and service. Thank you

This is the place to go for great fish and chips.

Excellent food as always. Really hearty and fresh. Cooking, flavour and ingredients are top notch. Was really well looked after by Jim, Cev, Omar and Olya!

Today, I visited searock for lunch and it was an amazing experience. I ordered chicken curry, and my partner had chicken burger it was exquisite our lovely waiter gave us excellent service. Well done searock we are looking forward to visit again

amazing food , would recommend the nduja cider sauce with the mussels, was out of this world!

Probably the worse chips I've ever eaten, considering that chips and fish is what you do then getting 50,% right isn't enough, luckily enough tonight I cooked my own fish

we bought fish and chips and was able to take it to the pub next door and eat as or friends had 2 dogs and it was too windy and cold to sit outside. the portion size was good and cooked to perfection would definitely recommend a visit. I will be going back again

Booked a table for 16 people. Pre ordered from the Christmas menu. Absolutely delicious food. The portion sizes are massive, so would suggest you arrive hungry! Fondue Starter as a sharing plate....Fabulous! Mussle starter Massive! Big shout out to Harry who looked after us the whole time. Thank you so much . Happy Christmas to you all 👍🎅🤶🌲xx

Sunday roast at SeaRock: A lovely meal with a view.. we didn't order the 'extra' vegetables offered and found that the portions were more than enough for us. The food wasn't piping hot - but was ok and food tasted lovely. A nice atmosphere and good service during the meal.. a little slow in bringing us the bill and waiting to pay the bill.. I eventually decided to go and pay at the till.

The cod and chips is really crispy and fresh. They maintain quality all the time. Service is great too, very friendly, well trained staff.

I live around the corner from here, regular for the excellent fish and chip takeaway but not eaten in for a couple of years. The restaurant was always fine but nothing special, still good for fish and chips obviously but the other dishes did not really excite in the few times we went. However, tried with the new menu and it is absolutely superb. Five of us ate and all had something different and everything was practically perfect, well cooked, great flavours, superb friendly service. Portions very generous offering excellent value. Bravo. Fantastic to know there is such a great restaurant on my doorstep. Now the best in Portishead and by rights word will spread and there will be visitors from out of town if there are not already.

Absolutely fantastic - go there ! Lunchtime was good , very attentive service , mouth watering food . Menu selection was excellent. Best fish restaurant I have been to.

Have been a few times for fish or seafood and can't fault it. Tried a Sunday roast today. It was a great experience once again. Huge portions mainly well cooked (broccoli was a bit hard), friendly and efficient service, lovely atmosphere. I'm not a pudding person but really enjoyed the New York cheese cake.

Not been here for a few years, but ended up being late tonight from a family do so decided to return. Scampi and chips was a plate full and the medium cod was a large in my opinion. Was absolutely delicious and I only just managed to eat it. Really wanted a dessert but there was no point, I was beaten.

First time but most certainly not the last. Excellent food and the service was really good. Recommend this fish restaurant with a great view of the Marina. Been many times since I wrote the above. They have a new menu now. Excellent, outstanding dishes and price-wise I think very reasonable. We really enjoyed our dinner and tried dishes off the new menu. Great success. Congrats to the chef for producing a great menu and such good food to match.

Had Cod n Chips here, was very nice. Chips only ever so slightly underdone. Not worth dropping a star for. Just a personal preference.

Me and my partner decided to visit searock for lunch, it was a wonderful experience. Our waiter Olya gave us amazing service and made us feel welcome. Our meal was lovely and we will 100% be coming back.

Our first visit very good take away fish and chips cooked fresh good portion and lovely and hot definitely return

We were there for lunch with two children. Fish and chips were great, but the mussels with bacon are particularly recommended. Simply a poem. The service was very courteous and child-friendly.

Lovely family run restaurant with friendly staff. The waiter went above and beyond, with a nice magic trick for the kids and by paying attention to children's names and then using them. The food was amazing too. Lots of choice beyond fish and chips. Fresh daily specials, burgers, poke bowls, pasta and pork. The monkfish, prawn and chorizo kebabs with a huge salad and chips was delicious.

This was my second visit, this time for an evening meal, and there were five of us. Two had the Sea Bass, and three had medium-sized haddock. We all enjoyed our meals very much. I have marked the service down a star, as we had three different servers, and the young lady got one of the wine drinks wrong, and I think two of the wines may also have been the wrong size. She also did not explain initially that the mushy peas for two people, were in one bowl, not two, so I assumed we were a bowl short. An older lady sorted out the wrong wine issue, but it was only later that I realised the wines were small. We were only charged for the smaller size, though. I would happily return there again.

Today, I visited Sea Rock in Portishead for Sunday lunch, and it was a fantastic experience! I had the roast pork, and my nan had the roast beef. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The vegetables were perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and paired beautifully with the generous portions of tender meat. The gravy was rich and flavorful, adding the perfect finishing touch to an already amazing meal. I had previously visited and was disappointed with the experience, but they have massively improved. This time, everything was spot on, and we couldn’t fault a single thing (and we are very fussy!). It’s definitely one of the best places to have Sunday lunch in Portishead, and I will definitely return.

Never had a bad meal here, very family friendly whilst mostly focused on fish and chips, there are a few fancier dishes which are done incredibly well.

Staff are very attentive and the best fish and chips in the area.

Loved this place. Terrific atmosphere on a Saturday evening. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Food arrived promptly despite a full house and the quality was excellent. Very reasonably priced also. Thumbs up all round!

Absolutely great place if you want some fish plates different to the traditional fish & chips one. I tried all their main fish plates and they're all great. Fully recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Amazing chicken burger and chips for lunch

Can’t believe it’s taken us so long to try this place, staff great, food really good, we started with the squid, best we’ve had for a while, hubby had large haddock and chips which he said was spot on, I went for the special, Hake on a bed of sweet potato purée, fresh veg, and a lovely chervil cream sauce, it was gorgeous. We will be back, soon I think.

Good restaurant for fish and chips and other interesting fish dishes, and good views of the marina. Friendly service

Very welcoming atmosphere, great staff and the fish and chips were the best! Also a great location looking out on to the harbour.

Great cross between fish and chip shop and fish restaurant really good quality and very good quick service

Lovely atmosphere, view of the Marina, food service all excellent

Great value for money, loved the fish and chips .

MEGA chips and fish....SUPER service. Come again.

We dined outside on a brisk Wednesday afternoon. We order at the takeaway counter and enjoyed the sunshine. My partner got the fish and chips I got the buttermilk chicken sandwich with blue cheese and honey. My sandwich was delicious and had engaging flavors. The fish and chips were a little flavorless and could have used some seasons per my partner. He proceeded to douse his fries in vinegar and a bunch of salt. To be fair, they were on the tables to add yourself.

Great food but more than 45 mins wait for takeaway. Maybe this place is a victim of its own success. Also hilariously ran out of chips while we were there...

Great fresh seafood - we are regular fans of the Fish n chips takeaway and meals inside.

Lovely location and previously had great meals but this time ordered the 'moule with miso' off the menu and they were clearly not cooked to order, were either reheated or had been left warming for some time. Disappointing given the cost of the meal.

We had a fantastic meal, quality of the food was excellent and very good service. Definitely would recommend if you are looking for quality food and service when visiting Portishead.

Excellent food and brilliant service 🫡👍

Lovely fish and chips in a delightful location.

Best restaurant I've ever been to and I'm 55 years old and have been to so many over the years

Great place, very nice environment

Today we made a change, I went to a very nice fish restaurant and everything was great, I recommend it to everyone.

Always had amazing food, eating in or takeaway. Today totally disappointed. Chips were anaemic and soggy. Fish was ok but definitely not worth the £26 price tag. Not the food I am used to from there.

What a lovely find for a holiday lunch. Good menu choice and very good service with excellent food.

Best fish and chips I've ever had. A lovely family run business

My experience of the takeaway part of the restaurant was not terrible but not great either. The restaurant was very busy so you think that's a good sign, food and service must be good right? Not really. Told you wait for 7 minutes before we could order and then wait another 10 to 12 minutes (for plain sausages and chips) or if we order straightway it would be 35 minutes!? That didn't make sense but we waited to order. The server was very polite and friendly (bumped the service rating up a notch) and managed to serve people in sequence correctly despite of some people in the queue and others waiting on the seats. The most disappointing thing about the whole experience was the sausages, although thick, were small and not particularly tasty (personal preference most likely I'm sure) and the chips portions were not great either and chips were not that tasty either. The value for money was very poor. £16 for 3 sausages and 2 small chips! We won't be returning that's for sure.

We usually can’t resist the fish and chips when we visit SeaRock but also tried mussels and monkfish today. Beautiful food, generous portions and prompt and friendly service. A winner!

Just had the biggest plate of Cod n Chips in the Searock restaurant in Portishead marina.Asked for a large Cod n chips and the portion was massive. Literally 2 large pieces of cod with skin on chips. Sooo delicious. Just one of these pieces of Cod in London would have been a large Cod. Very reasonably priced ,Staff very friendly and polite. Great view of the marina.Highly recommend 👍

There was quite a lot of waiting time though out, but the food was good and the staff were friendly! Also well located looking out on the marina

Amazing seafood restaurant with wonderful views over the harbour. Massive portions, great customer service and no rushing. Highly recommended.

What a find. Visited twice now for lunch in July 24. Proper friendly, family run restaurant in brilliant location with take away option. All fish cooked/fried fresh to order. Lovely dining room. The food offers real quality for the price (and we are fairly picky). Great combo of lovely food, location and value - and the service is excellent too. This restaurant deserves to be a massive success. We can't wait to return.

We've been twice; we ran back a second time because it was so amazing the first time but the second time was not as good as the first. However this does not take away from the fact that it is an amazing restaurant and lovely location next to the marina

Just a perfectly nice restaurant

We shared a medium haddock from the takeaway menu, nice but we didn't notice we wouldn't have mushy peas and tartar sauce. Otherwise a nice family friendly place.

Only went for takeaway its was very nice but over priced but woth it

Most highly recommended! Superb tasty food, generous portions, great quality and excellent friendly and accommodating service. Good value too! Will definitely be back. Thank you Sea Rock. Visited Monday 22nd July lunchtime

Very good Fish and chips. A large fish and chips is more than enough for two people. Great to grab a takeaway and sit by the marina.

Friendly in this so much than a fish and chip restaurant. Our second visit to date. We had the best cod and chips we have ever had. Resonable price, very friendly and helpful service. Can't fault anything.

One of the best fish and chips I've ever had absolutely cooked to perfection

Nestled snugly between the lively Siren's Calling pub and the chic Mokoko café, SeaRock Restaurant in Portishead marina enjoys a prime location that would make even the fussiest seagull green with envy. On a sunny summer’s day, the marina sparkles, the windows of SeaRock fold back to let in the salty breeze, and there’s a cheerful buzz as diners choose between quay-side seating and indoor tables with views of the water. So far, so idyllic. But here’s the rub: SeaRock suffers from something of an identity crisis. Is it a sit-down restaurant? A casual takeaway? It tries to be both, and therein lies the problem. Picture this: you’re sitting down to a nice meal, the sun glinting off the marina, and all of a sudden, you're surrounded by a small crowd of people waiting for their takeout orders. It's a bit like dining in the middle of a busy bus station – not exactly the relaxing waterfront experience you might have envisioned. Now, onto the food. As is customary for any self-respecting Brit reviewing a seaside eatery, I opted for the fish and chips. SeaRock offers this staple in three sizes: small (one bit of fish), medium (one and a half bits), and large (two bits). While this “bit” system might sound bizarre, it’s actually quite practical, offering just the right portion size to match one’s hunger. The fish itself was commendable: crisp, golden batter encasing succulent, flaky white fish. The chips were decent, though perhaps lacking that perfect balance of crunch and fluffiness that makes you dream of your next seaside visit. The real star, however, was the specials board – an array of enticing dishes that suggest SeaRock's kitchen has more than a few culinary tricks up its sleeve. Service was friendly, if a bit harried. The staff did their best to juggle the demands of sit-down diners and takeaway patrons, and a sunny Saturday rush.

We have visited this place many times. The only reason it is a 4 for service is because we would appreciate being told at time of giving us the menu if certain things are sold out.

We enjoyed an excellent fish and chips lunch. Completely unplanned, but as we walked past SeaRock a departing customer said to us "That was lovely"! We decided to replan our lunch and see if the lady was right. She was! A friendly welcome and similar quality service was to follow. A table looking out on the impressive array of boats in the marina and sunshine! The food arrived, well presented fish and chips at a special lunchtime price. Two glasses of decent wine accompanied the food and we were off. When fish and chips is good, it can't be beaten in the minds of many Brits. This was, indeed, excellent! Highly recommended. We will be back. Plenty of other meals also look very tempting.

Pleasant and friendly good food and wine

Absolutely stunning fish and chips same in the restaurant amazing staff 10 out of 10

Had a crab sandwich, stale white bread. Very small portion for a big price. I was hungry so didn't complain but should have gone to the Co-op next door.

Fantastic family Birthday meal for 9. All our starters and main courses were delicious, served by brilliant staff who were polite and friendly. It was the first day of their new menu. Fabulous choice, large portions, beautifully cooked, nice wine and so kind to help with the cake we had brought. Would definitely recommend, such a lovely setting on the marina too. Perfect evening, we shall visit again, thank you SeaRock 💯

We do not live in the area, but we're looking for a good place to eat. The fish was so fresh and beautifully cooked. The restaurant was very clean and light and airy. The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially Harry. I would highly recommend SeaRock, and I don't usually bother with reviews!!

Me and my partner got takeaway fish and chips last night from sea rock. We both had cod and chips with curry sauce and a pea fritter. We were thoroughly impressed with the quality and flavour from sea rock. The fish was perfect, lightly battered and not greasy. The chips were good and generous in portion. They serve with a slice of lemon which is a perfect addition. The pea fritter was an unusual choice for us but we wanted to try one and we’re not disappointed. Overall we would highly recommend sea rock to anyone!

Second time visiting this place. Very delicious food and very friendly family service. The atmosphere is just perfect, if you are looking for a day out, this is the best place to explore.

Really great fish and chips, I will be returning!

Was served by a young lad Harry was his name. Really great service

Not consistent at all, food can be great if you go at the right time but be prepared to wait over 20mins if you don’t pre order take away. The posset sausage when I first ordered it was amazing, fresh juicy sausage with crispy batter then time after it was a bit stale and the batter was so soft and just fell apart. Chips are all right for the price I guess, but for an establishment who are pushing “posh” fish and chips I would say they are below par. The chicken bites were great when I had them, and the halloumi was meh. Cannot comment on any other dishes at present and may come back and update this review. Staff were friendly though. Would I eat here again? Yeah probably.

very tasty food. like on vacation in Italy.

Very nice little restaurant with a south-facing terrace overlooking the marina, the view is magnificent and relaxing. Lots of choices of fried fish with the most famous of them, Fish & Chips. The Greek salad was perfect with very fresh products. The service is impeccable and super fast! To recommend

Yes, it's pricey, aren't all quality fish bars these days? But the key is quality, great local produce cooked well. I like that they have a deal with the Siren's Calling next door and you can take your food in the pub and have a great pint at the same time.

Very disappointing expensive fish and chips. -Chips, hard overcooked no flavour -Fish, you could taste the cod itself was nice but it was coated in a flavourless batter that had held onto all of the oil -Mushy peas, just green mush, no pea flavour -Curry sauce, a weird curry sauce, not like your typical thick curry sauce, it was smooth and had a strange taste Unfortunately this is not a restaurant for fish and chips lovers

Consistently really good! I've been eating here regularly for 2 years and have never had a negative experience. The fish and chips are wonderfully fresh, the best around, with genuinely friendly good service. Highly recommend this lovely family run restaurant!

Went to sea rock for the first time yesterday ,fish and chips were excellent best I ever had, service very good.

WOW ! WONDERFUL lunch today at Searock. Perfectly cooked Fish and Chips and lovely desserts. Very attentive and friendly staff, no hesitation in recommending this little gem.

It was very busy for a lunchtime, as a result of sitting too close to the till, we could overhear conversations following turning people away without reservations, one member of staff seemed very unhappy that people were turning up and asking to be seated. Food wasn't overly complicated but was still a 45 minute wait, there wasn't anything wrong with it but overall the atmosphere was a little negative so I won't be rushing back. EDIT (in response to reply) - I didn't order mussels as a starter, only a main course was ordered, so you are confusing me with another time/place. I know it was 45 minutes, as I was aware of the time to be back at work! As to reactions of staff, I believe you are confusing this with another time - the reactions of the person dealing with walk-ins was far from pleasant so I am surprised you are still as busy as you say! Hopefully this will serve as constructive to remind staff that even behind a counter their conversations and reactions are still visible to those of us in the restaurant!

Today, we took our walking group friends from Devizes, where we used to live until 3 months ago, on a walk around Portishead, starting at the Lake Grounds. We prebooked lunch at SeaRock, there were 25 of us and it was amazing. Everyone in our group was complementary about the delicious fish, about the wonderful staff, in fact about everything. Thank you SeaRock for helping to make today special

A sunshine Sunday been to this restaurant. The seafood amazed me. I will come visit again!

Best Fish & Chips in Portishead! Highly recommend.

Just Had fish and chips at this place I've had coeliac disease for over 14 years and I can honestly say with hand on my heart the best gluten free fish and chips I've had anywhere staff were amazing restaurant is stunning as well 10 out of 10 from me
