So you fancy a touch of authenticity? It doesn't come much more authentic than The Company Shed, particularly on a chilly day in winter, with the tides running fast and the wind in the landlocked rigging. Having established that the weatherworn edifice before you is your destination, clutch your bottles, cans and French rolls - well I did warn you - and enter into the world of really fresh seafood, evidence of which in various forms is all around you.

So also is Heather Haward who, with her husband Richard runs this wonderful place. Richard farms the oysters and looks after other vital supply lines. Service is very much DIY in keeping with the ambience and philosophy of the place. The seafood is simple and just undeniably wonderful, with the crabs well at the top of the list. Forget about the fripperies, no puddings, bring a flask of coffee if you must and salads are not welcome.

Oh, and on your way out bag some of the clams to take home at a mere £1 a pound.

Surely this has to be seafood heaven?
