The Seafood Restaurant, Padstow Rick Stein

The Seafood Restaurant. A five decade obsession for fresh fish, simply cooked and giving our guests the most memorable dining experiences. Head Chef, Pete Murt, leads the way now, with his team perfectly recreating Rick’s recipes time and time again for guests to enjoy – including lobster thermidor, turbot hollandaise and Indonesian seafood curry.

In 2024, The Seafood Restaurant was awarded the AA Food Service Award for its excellent standards of restaurant services and hospitality. The awards praised our restaurant for the way it “evokes such a positive feeling and sense of place” and our exceptional front of house team for their sparkling hospitality, applauding them as ‘relentless ambassadors for the food and local area”.
