Rockfish Seafood Restaurant Brixham ( Dining / Seafood ). Award-winning, perhaps the closest restaurant to the source of fish in the UK, and one of the most popular fish restaurants in Brixham, Rockfish sits in the world famous fish market overlooking the boats as they land their catch which arrives in our kitchen soon after.
We have seating inside the restaurant and further seating for alfresco dining outside on the terrace which looks directly down to the fishing fleet.
Our boat Rockfisher and other small fishing boats start landing from around 5pm each day, it's an exciting sight to see sustainable fish of all shapes and sizes coming ashore. There really isn't a better place to enjoy fresh seafood overlooking the water from where it was caught.
