Reduced hours in Lyme Regis

At Rockfish, our people are everything. We don’t just fill shifts - we build kitchens around care, pride, and high standards. And that’s something we’re not willing to compromise on. Because of that, from 11th May we’ll be closed on Mondays and Sunday nights for a short period, while we focus on growing our team.

When you dine with us, nothing changes - you’ll get the same Rockfish you know and expect: the freshest seafood, warm hospitality, and a kitchen and front-of-house team who genuinely love what they do. If you’re a chef, or you know someone who’d be a great fit, we’d really love to hear from you.
