Excellent "eat in" restaurant on the East Side adjoining the Mister Chips takeaway, where as well as the usual battered fish and chips, you can order your fish pan fried/grilled and with wonderful fresh vegetables including Samphire. There is also a fancy 'specials' menu and a short but good wine list. Highly recommended.

Excellent coffee shop/tea rooms above the bakery. Unchanged since the premises were founded towards the end of the 19th century. Huge range of coffee and tea. Nice view from the tea rooms of Skinner Street and of course you can buy baked goods from the shop to bring home.
