Mortehoe Shellfish Description

To imagine that Mrs Huelin might have her own website is rather akin to believing that Saddam Hussein might have had a promising career as a social worker before he took to other more lethal employment. The Huelin family, who head up this new take on running a restaurant, have simpler views on communications and prefer to concentrate on the practical comforts of their guests as they take their seats at tables in her back garden and the living room that was. A crab sandwich will cost you less than £3, a lobster feast around £25. There are plenty of other maritime options and the overriding impression is of fish with totally retained freshness, probably like you have never known it before.

Customers are asked to bring their own wine and bread. Everything is prepared on the spot whilst the client waits - the price for this may be a slightly longer timelag but it's worth every second. This is probably the humblest location offering the best food in Britain - any counter-claims to this website please, for further investigation.

There is a retail seafood business running in harness with the restaurant, and the Huelins also have a seafood van that tours the local residential sites and homes. Which is fine, but what you will remember most is sitting in Mrs Huelin's garden eating the freshest, juiciest lobster of your life whilst everyday events go on around you, the décor matters not one jot, the service is the friendliest you've ever known, and certain sense of perspective takes over as you wonder whether you might pop in for breakfast next day when kippers and crab on toast are on the menu.

Your Reviews of Mortehoe Shellfish

Paul (6 July 2008)

They serve excellent quality food, which is simply cooked. The mantra of celebrity chefs is played out to its logical conclusion, and the result is wonderful. The members of staff were friendly and the meal was fantastic. It's worth a detour to visit.

Graham (10 May 2008)

We were disappointed with the quality of the food.
