The restaurant upstairs looks like it hasn't been decorated in about 40 years, but it's fairly cheap, and kids love sitting at a proper table and eating fish and chips.

The Maitre de is very helpfully not just in his knowledge of the food but also in the wine selection. The food is cooked and presented to a high standard, good selection of fish dishes available along with meat. I had heard that it has a reputation of being expensive, my visit calmed those fears although at a weekend it is probably for a special occasion.

The last time I went I was very disappointed with much of what we were served. This USED to be an…read moreexcellent fish restaurant, and I've eaten a number of very good dinners there. This was not one of them, starting with the mussels, which were full of grit, it went downhill from there. Another on my "avoid" list now I'm afraid.

I enjoyed the wood pidgin and the steak was just right. The decoration is pretty querky but I like it and the service is good. When I go though I often feel sorry for people who are at tables near the entrance as it's all rather cramped when people arrive. One of my visits was in a party of 12 so we booked a room upstairs and it was very cosy and quite novel.

Updating my review - with actually no significant update. There's not really anything to improve…read more This restaurant is my favourite in Wells (in Norfolk, actually). The ingredients are local, the menu is seasonal and the daily specials are well considered, fresh and all-round delightful. Though I don't drink, I understand the gin (and tonic) selection to be incredible. Whilst definitely not the cheapest place to eat locally, it is more than reasonable with the fresh, local ingredients and the skill obviously put into making them. Most recently I visited and between three of us sampled (read: devoured) some cod cheek tempura, scallops with an avocado purée, sesame tempura prawns, fish & chips and a double-serving of seafood chowder. These were mainly daily specials and so I had requested earlier in the day that they didn't run out of chowder for me. It honestly is the best thing ever. Saying that - as much as I adore chowder - the cod cheeks are amongst the best dishes I have ever tasted. The food is seasoned perfectly. The fish is so well respected in terms of being just-done and the service is so friendly and familiar without being over-bearing. I would always ALWAYS recommend it here. (new photos attached)

We went for a birthday lunch to the Wells Crab House with high expectations. Unfortunately we were…read morea bit disappointed. The setting and interior are nice enough and, in fairness, the main dish of teriyaki sea trout was tasty. However, the starter of halibut was overcooked and we hardly recognised it as halibut and we did not really feel relaxed. What is also a minus is the fact that a deposit of £30 was taken off the credit card a few hours before we arrived. Not a bad meal, but next time we'll go somewhere else.

If you live in Nottingham or visit it often, when you think of a seafood restaurant you probably…read morethink of Loch Fyne. You probably shouldn't. Take a wander up Mansfield Road, or probably better still, hop on a bus or jump in a cab, as The Lobster Pot is quite a way up. It is worth going out of your way for though. This small restaurant in my opinion is the best fish / seafood place in the city (not that there are many to choose from), and it is a shame that it isn't closer to the city centre. Still, if it were, then the prices would probably be higher to cover higher overheads on property. I am a big fan of mussels, and this place does them wonderfully. Their menu has a good choice of fish and shellfish dishes and a small selection of meat dishes in case anybody in your party isn't keen on seafood. As far as I know though, there aren't any vegetarian options...at least, there weren't the last time I checked their menu online. Some of the dishes have an oriental bent, such as the thai fishcakes, prawn spring rolls and sesame prawn toast starters, but there are plenty of 'regular' seafood dishes. My personal favourites at this place are the smoked haddock chowder as a starter, a hearty, creamy soup which is quite filling in itself, filled with chunks of smoked fish and potato as it is. I then like to have a main course of mussels, usually the ones steamed in chilli and basil, although the more traditional Moules Marinieres are also great. A side dish of french fries goes wonderfully with them. I also sometimes indulge in a couple of fresh oysters, which can be bought individually. Two of these with a splash of tabasco sauce are enough for me as I find them quite rich, I could never eat a full portion as a main course. Various forms of salmon are well represented on the menu, although I have never sampled them myself. There is usually a specials board on display, giving options that don't appear on the regular menu. The restaurant boasts some very reasonably priced wines, with a bottle of house wine costing just under ten pounds, and plenty of others around 11 and 12 pounds. As this is a small place, I would suggest calling to book, especially at weekends and in the Christmas period. Another point in this place's favour is that during the festive period, they keep their regular menu on, instead of forcing a "special" Christmas menu upon you as many restaurants seem to. With the price of different fish and seafood varying so much, it is hard to give an average cost for a meal here, however I do believe with this place that you get what you pay for, and i've never found myself feeling bad about the money i've put down. Seriously, if you are serious about seafood, forget about Loch Fyne. The Lobster Pot wins, claws down!

On this occasion, I had a mozzarella and rocket starter. Would have been better if the plate wasn't covered rocket and had more mozzarella/tomato. For main I had a 'special' pizza, which has salami and prosciutto ham. there was a decent amount of ham but the salami was thin on the ground. When I came to the desserts, I avoided the dessert platter so share like the plague! after our last visit and ordering the afore mentioned dessert, you can't help but feel ripped off! there is barely more on the sharing platter then there was on the dessert plate of someone who had ordered a single portion. The restaurant is nice and clean and has quite a fresh look. The staff are nice but there is one person there, who I'm assuming is a manger of some description as they're in normal clothing, who is over the top with the niceties! to the point that its irritating! generally though, the staff are good and helpful. We have a tastecard so we got bogof on all courses which made the price reasonable. without the tastecard, I personally wouldn't want to go as I feel its over priced. our reservation was for a group of 5 and our waitress had no problem in accepting 2 tastecards for our party and splitting the bill into two. some places can be a bit funny about this.
