What LeonS7654321 doesn't like about Fishermans Cot:
Came here for dinner on a wet miserable evening , was met by the host after a long wait although the restaurant was very quiet. The service was mega slow but it didn’t affect the food quality. The food is always cooked to perfection here from the times I have been previously. Would definitely return again. View all feedback. What GrandTour30298417652 likes about Fishermans Cot:

Many reviewers have mixed feelings about The Cot. While some compliment the friendly service, others have issues with long wait times and food quality. One review praises the delightful location and helpful staff but criticizes the average food quality. Another reviewer raves about their exceptional service experience, thanks to server Callum. Complaints include overpriced food and drinks, poor cleanliness, and slow service due to understaffing. The buttermilk chicken burger and Sunday roast are recommended dishes. Overall, opinions are divided on The Cot, with some customers vowing never to return.
