This is a great quayside restaurant specialising, as the name suggests, in fish but with non-fish alternatives. All courses on our visit were fresh and well-prepared, and with a delicious summer pudding to follow. Reasonably-priced, extensive wine list. Very pleasant, helpful service and no rush to get us out as the five of us were the last ones there. Highly... More

We cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Yes, interesting menu, excellent presentation, superb taste; and very reasonable price; and really attentive servers; and a perfect location. But it is also the small things: like the innovative bread rolls, the water automatically served with the after dinner expressos and a gentle reminder of the harsh lives of those who work to bring...

Popped in as a walk in close to closing time on a Saturday evening but they fitted us in. Food was very nice and not too long of a waiting time too. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, would definitely return again when in the area. More

I booked this restaurant the day before we wanted to go and managed to get a choice of 2 time slots. It's an unusual choice for me as I don't particularly like sea food, but after reading the reviews I decided to go for it. And it's a decision not to be regretted!! We were a party of 6, ALL... More

We went to Trawlers on a Thursday evening right at the very start of the season, and even that early in the season making a reservation is recommended. We had to come back to get a table, but it was worth the wait! The first thing is the size, the downstairs seats 20 in comfort making it small and intimate,... More

The staff were lovely, but the food was amazing. My other half is a chef, and very difficult to please, but even he rated it 10/10..... Nice one Trawlers! Will come back to cornwall just so we can come again. More

I've been here three times and a must every time I visit Looe. The menu and specials board means there's always something different to eat every time I visit. Quality food at a decent price with great service made for a great evening on my last trip. The squid starter and monkfish main course was spot on and the chips... More
