Barnacles Restaurant

Barnacles Restaurant in Watling Street, Hinckley is surrounded by pretty grounds and a beautiful lake and is a good place to visit, particularly if you're very fond of fish. The brick wall exterior seems imposing but that doesn't deter the patrons of this delightful restaurant which has been serving delicious and fresh fish and seafood dishes since 1993.

There is an extensive selection of both fish and shellfish, so you could choose from dishes such as simply grilled lemon sole with vegetables or more creative ones like the popular fruits de mer, a platter of hot shellfish in chilli and garlic butter. Of course if your preferences don't run to fish then you can try something from the equally tempting meat or vegetarian menu and end finally with a caramelised citrus tart with raspberry sorbet. There's also an eclectic selection of wines to be found on the wine list, which span the countries of the Old and the New World.
