Final meal in the U.K. has just has to be Fish and Chips. Excellent fresh, moist fish with the just the right amount of batter. Chips were perfect, just crisp on the outside.

Oh yes people...we finally have a fish and chip shop worth its weight in gold in this country!!Look...chips are easy to do so I won't bore you about them (apart from the fact they are good).Its fish that has time after time let me down in this country. Ranging from something with the flavour of deep fried sea water to, if this is even possible, something even worse than deep fried sea water but with even less flavour than deep fried sea water!! However for the first time EVER in the history of eating fish and chips in this country the fish was worth its weight in deep friend gold!!! It had flavour! OMG...what a revelation!! Fish with flavour served at a British chippy!!! Absolutely unbelievable!!Not only was the cod emotionally beautiful...it was also the size of a small boat! The large is exactly that...LAAAAAARGE!!! The medium fish was only just slightly smaller and would do for most normal humans!The premises were also large, airy and clean and the staff were lovely.The simple fact is I'd very happily travel back to Weymouth just to have the fish and chips from this shop!![COMPLETELY UNRELATED]But here is the thing about fish and chips in this country (which is true regardless of where you are ordering your deep fried sea water from);They will happily batter every chocolate bar known to mankind BUT the moment you ask if they do battered mussles or scollops or oysters etc they look at you as if they suddenly lost the ability to speak English and a small child starts crying in the corner asking daddy to make the mean man stop it!WOW!!!! I don't even know where to start with what is officially the BEST review we have ever had. I loved every word of it. I am still picturing your deep fired seawater, that really made me smile.You have a special way with words and humour thank you and I hope we'll see you again soon at a very happy Fish 'n' Fritz.Kind regards.Paul

Great location and friendly service - but food a let down hardly what you might expect from a carvery the only veg carrots- cabbage- cauliflower -and roast potatoes (not crispy) We had roast beef which was quite tough .However it did cost only £9.95- perhaps charge more and improve the meal quality.

Have been before and it has been good. But staggered that having travelled to get there (and parking in Fortuneswell is no fun!) they were closed... at lunchtime... on Saturday... in June. Extremely odd business model. Maybe they are resting so they can deal with the hordes of visitors they get in November!Thank you for your review. The business model has changed over the years you are quite right, but the model has changed as customer's eating habits have changed. We now get more customers coming to us in the evenings but less at lunchtimes. The Fortuneswell shop has been closed on a Saturday lunchtime for over 2 years now, however, our shop at Portland Road in Wyke is open on a Saturday lunchtime. Wage costs keep rising relentlessly and all businesses can only afford to be open at peak times when the tills are ringing otherwise they will fail in this current economic environment.

Really impressed. Great food, personally cooked. Celebrated an anniversary dinner there and not disappointed - other than the large group of (I think) sailing enthusiasts who were exceptionally noisy. Hardly the restaurant's fault. Eric, the Chef-Proprietor- was attentive and helpful. We will certainly return.
4. Crab House Cafe

This was our third visit to the Crab House and we would definitely recommend and go again. The experience of smashing and picking our own crab is great and the location is rustic and relaxed. Even at lunchtimes off season it is busy, so best to book in advance. The only reason not to give 5* this time is that we felt the 28% price increase (11.25 to 14.50) for the half crab since six months ago was quite steep - and the menu online is still not updated. Other prices also seemed much higher. Oysters were excellent. Would also be good to see vegan dessert other than sorbet. Service was friendly and very good.

Pub right on the front so you can look out on Chesil beach while you eat. Was impressed that the staff took our order after 2.30pm as we were really hungry and tired after walking round Portland. The food was quick and we enjoyed it. Reasonable priced and good choice on menu. Worth a visit.

After an organised beach clean, Quiddles had reserved a table for us. Painted tables and chairs in lovely bright colours. We sat outside with a cold drink and scrumptious slice of homemade Victoria Sponge Cake and others had a savoury lunch. Service was very friendly and helpful. View along a now clean Chesil Beach and in the Cove was amazing! Gorgeous, warm, sunny weather and a super place to chill!
