Such a cracking little place. Wild beach.. salty air and some of the best seafood you’ll find round here… easy. Inside seating is tiny so booking’s a good shout if it’s busy. Otherwise just grab your food and sit on the sand like a normal human 😉 Oysters are spot on.. couldn’t be fresher.. and you can’t really go wrong with the daily menu.. proper safe bet. Scallops were the standout for us. Unreal.
Wine list’s short but well picked and the small-batch Flash House IPA will sort any proper beer lover out. Just mind there’s a break after breakfast and lunch service.
No fuss.. no nonsense. Just class seafood in a class spot.

Incredible food, genuinely out of this world. I hadn’t seen my parents in over a year and I took them here for lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Oysters, Kipper wrap, haddock brandade, bacalhau fish cake and brown crab soufflé. My mum is Swedish and my dad Venetian so generally they have quite high standards for seafood and they were completely blown away. The atmosphere was lovely, despite the near torrential storm outside and streaking rugby lads, it was superbly cosy, mostly due to the friendly staff. They were incredibly helpful and patient. So beyond worth a visit.

Riley’s Fish Shack – New Year’s Day by the Sea
Spending New Year’s Day at Riley’s Fish Shack with my wife and our two children was the kind of experience that reminds you why simple food, done brilliantly, is so special.
Perched right on the beach, with the North Sea rolling in just a few metres away, Riley’s feels less like a restaurant and more like a celebration of the coast. Even before the food arrived, the smell of charcoal, salt air and wood smoke set the tone perfectly.
The seafood was outstanding. The grilled fish was cooked over open fire to perfection – beautifully charred on the outside, tender and flaky within, and finished with a rich, buttery sauce scattered with herbs and capers that lifted every bite. Alongside it, the smoky grilled vegetables added depth and balance, while the crusty bread was ideal for soaking up every last drop of sauce.
The oysters were a real highlight. Fresh, cold, and briny, they tasted of the sea itself. Served simply with lemon and a delicate shallot dressing, they were clean, elegant, and incredibly fresh – a treat that felt both indulgent and honest.
What made the day even more special was how welcoming and relaxed the atmosphere was. Despite it being New Year’s Day and brisk by the seaside, Riley’s felt warm and family-friendly. Our children were just as captivated by the setting as they were by the food, watching waves crash while we enjoyed some of the best seafood we’ve had in a long time.
Riley’s Fish Shack isn’t just about eating; it’s about the whole experience – fire, sea, fresh fish, and time well spent together. A perfect way to start the year, and somewhere we’ll be talking about (and returning to) for a long time to come.

A legendary spot for flavourful fish dishes looking out on the beach and surf. Really wonderful destination with the food matching the vibe. Worth travelling to and booking in advance. If you don’t book .. grab a deckchair and eat on the beach.

I’m honestly blown away, time and time again, by the food here each time I come. High quality, delicious, authentic food that is like no where else!! Riley’s is a cosy, relaxing and such a gorgeous setting, even on cold days I still love to sit on the balcony overlooking the sea. You will not be disappointed by the food & ambience here!

Can never really find fault with Fish Shack. They have made a minor change, which initially we didn’t realise, that I believe is a very good one. Instead of each dish coming with salad and bread you now need to order this separately and the mains prices have been lowered accordingly. Previously we would always end up with lots of extra salad and it was a bit much. Now you can order 1 between 2 and it is just right. The food as always was exquisite. We ordered the sole and halibut and both were cooked to perfection and packed with flavour. They have replaced the wood burning stoves with overhead heaters which is much better as usually only the person next the fire got warm.
The decking is still cosy and on a winters evening it is the perfect place to go for a meal out. Cannot recommend enough.

Fabulous
Dreamy location, good food and service.
This is a fish shack on the beach literally. Don’t expect plates and metal cutlery, most food is served in a brown paper box.
Ate here this evening and booked an inside table.
Opted for monkfish wrap, which came with a delicious crunchy salad, roast whole garlic cloves and potatoes. large soft white flat bread. Monkfish was superb. Washed down with a beer and a house white for us.
Good selection of beers. Great menu.
If you have mobility problems this eatery will prove a challenge for you. As its name suggests iits a fish shack on the beach. Many steps to get down and up. You know you’re alive once you’ve climbed the steps to get back to your car. Parking may also prove a challenge in busier times of the season.
That said when you get there you are rewarded with good food and an incredible view.
Booking recommended very busy.
Depending on what you order it can be pricy. We paid just shy of £100 for two monkfish mains, a beer, a house wine and a can of water.

Came down the day before my birthday, initially decided to have just a drink that was until we saw the menu and the food being brought out. We ordered the sole and Oysters and it was possibly the best fish I’ve had in the UK. (They were also accommodating to coeliacs)The wine was also lovely and the service faultless, and of course the views of the beach and the location were picture perfect. I cannot recommend this place more to anyone.

Incredible tasting food, some of the best seafood I have had for a very long time. Our server was great and the food didn’t take too long to come out. Delicious Squid and the Cod Wrap was unreal. Good portion sizes too

Every bit as good as you’ve probably already heard. Absolutely lived up to the hype and thus our high expectations. Gorgeous (and reasonably priced) fresh seafood in an absolutely dreamy setting. Great service, great wine, great Bloody Mary and unexpectedly great October weather, just wish we’d managed to bag a table outside!
