Seafood restaurant in Exmouth

Where the Exe meets the sea, and the day's catch meets the grill.

Book a table View Menu

Sitting by the slipway and overlooking the Exe, our Exmouth restaurant is right where the tide rushes past and the fishing boats drift by. Relaxed, breezy and full of estuary life, it's a place shaped by the water. On sunny days the outside deck is the place to be, and when it's cooler, head inside where the warmth of the log burner takes the edge off the sea breeze.

The seafood is landed just along the coast in Brixham, prepared by hand each morning and cooked simply: over charcoal, grilled, or crisp fried. All of it sustainably caught, all of it fresh that day. Grab a seat, watch the water, and tuck into the day's catch.

Exmouth is a town that lives outdoors, two miles of sandy beach, kitesurfers on the estuary, walkers setting off along the Jurassic Coast from Orcombe Point, and we're happy to be its refuelling stop. Sandy feet and salty dogs welcome; this is a place for after the beach, after the walk, after the swim.

A collage of the communities Rockfish support

Rooted in Community

We believe a restaurant should be part of its community, not just a place in it. Thanks to the generosity of our guests, who can choose to add an optional £1 to their bill, Rockfish supports local charities, community projects and inspirational people doing brilliant things close to home, in every harbour and seaside town we call home across Devon and Dorset. From youth clubs and sailing trusts to beach cleans and seaside festivals, discover what guest generosity is doing in your town.

Dog friendly dining in Exmouth

Dogs are as much a part of beach life as we are, so four-legged crew are very welcome at Rockfish Exmouth. Water bowls are always on hand, and after a morning on the sand or the estuary trail, there's no better spot for you both to refuel.

Dining outside in Exmouth

You can enjoy uninterrupted sea views over the Exe Estuary and towards the golden sands of Dawlish Warren from our Exmouth restaurant all year round. But on warmer days half of our restaurant becomes an incredible outdoor deck, so you can enjoy delicious, fresh seafood as you bask in the Devon sunshine and listen to the sounds of the sea. Our outdoor tables are subject to availability and weather.
