This is the perfect destination for seafood lovers. Our outdoor deck and seafood restaurant overlooks the ocean and is right next door to the National Marine Aquarium where you can see fish from all over the world and learn about their great work preserving and managing our marine environment. The famous Mayflower Steps are right next door and Plymouth fish market is just feet away from Rockfish so you can watch the fishing boats land, whilst you’re enjoying your seafood. Outside on our deck we have plenty of space for you to enjoy fresh local seafood and beers with a view.
Fresh, sustainable fish and shellfish cooked simply in a New England-style beach shack setting.

Lovely restaurant right by the water perfect after coming out of the aquarium. There was a deal on so kids eat free I opted for fish tacos which were nice…would have been nice with a tad more fish I think £19.99 warrants a bigger fish finger IMO. Didn’t realise but it is refillable chips so a chip fan can go crazy if they so desire…..
it was mildly busy which is great little atmosphere yet food comes quickly served by a lovely and polite lady. Overall nice little lunch with the little man add on the staff, freebies, location for the price we paid it was great.

Loved this fish restaurant with a great location next to the aquarium in Plymouth. Service, very good and especially liked that the waitress talked us through all of the fresh fish options of the day. What a great choice they had! We indulged our selves with a sharing tapas selection from the main menu and from the daily menu. The spider crab cakes were delicious along with the calamari, the largest mussels I’ve had the pleasure of being presented with and finally the monkfish tale which was juicy and flavourful.

Great seafood at Rockfish, always very fresh and really well prepared. We had some lovely Leigh on Sea cockles and local mussels in a lovely light sauce, followed by some wonderful haddock and chips. Not the cheapest around, but definitely worth the extra money.

Ate at the takeaway part. Ordered at the hatch and collected when called. Order the haddock and chips summer special for £10. Added a homemade tartar sauce side too and 2 diet coke. The fish was absolutely beautiful, quite big, light batter and thick fish which just flaked and was very tasty. Great chips and the tartar sauce was amazing. Definitely recommend

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Amazing seafood experience at Rockfish! We had the sardines — fresh, perfectly grilled, and full of flavor. The unlimited chips were a fun bonus, and the tartar sauce is a must-try! For dessert, the sticky toffee pudding was rich and comforting. We also had a glass of their white wine (I believe it’s their own label) and it was absolutely lovely. Great service and a relaxed seaside vibe. Can’t wait to come back

Scenic Seafood Spot with a Summer Twist
We returned to Rockfish this summer, drawn back by the unbeatable views and the £10 Summer Special featuring line-caught haddock & chips. Sadly, haddock was off the menu that day, but the team offered white fish & chips instead. We also ordered battered sausage & fish bites for the kids, plus cold lager pints to round it off.
While the swap wasn’t what we’ve been looking forward to but the food was still tasty.
The outdoor deck overlooks the ocean and with the National Marine Aquarium next door, Rockfish remains a great spot for casual seafood. Service was friendly.

The usual high quality seafood that one comes to expect from Rockfish. The location, views and restaurant, in the heart of the historic and vibrant Barbican district of Plyomouth is a perfect setting to enjoy fresh seafood.

Rockfish is a gem by the water — relaxed, lively atmosphere and seriously fresh seafood. We went for the fish of the day, which was John Dory, and it was cooked to perfection: delicate, flavorful, and beautifully presented. One of the best parts? Unlimited French fries, crisp and golden, which perfectly complemented the fish. The setting near the port adds to the charm, making it a great spot for a casual yet quality meal.
