The Oyster Smack Inn is a charming local Restaurant and Cocktail Bar with Accommodation. Built in the 1800’s, the building is full of character and sets the scene for an outstanding and extremely popular local Restaurant. The dining room and bar are both classic and timeless, the coastal shades of the decor providing a serene backdrop to the dining experience. Wooden floors and hand-made furniture all work to create a feeling of quiet elegance.
Head chef and proprietor Trevor’s inspiration and passion comes from a wealth of culinary experience including stints at Jamie Oliver’s first restaurant Montes in Knightsbridge and at Gordon Ramsey’s eponymous 3 Michelin star-winning establishment.
The coastal location means that The Oyster Smack Inn can take full advantage of the freshest of seafood and our menu utilises this to full effect. The team in the kitchen are passionate about using the finest produce from local suppliers. Changing seasonally, our A La Carte menu offers the best of modern British food whilst your favourite classic pub dishes can be found on our Classics menu.
Whether you are looking to dine out with family and friends or to entertain clients, at The Oyster Smack Inn you can celebrate a very special occasion or simply pop in for a light snack - our kitchens are happy to oblige, whatever your needs.
