    Finlay's Fresh Fish BBQ

    In a former fish factory, this big tin shed of a BYO eatery prides itself on offering 'no service, no corkage, no glasses, no frills' - just big servings of abuse (don't fear if the cook yells at you, it's part of the fun of the place) alongside huge portions of home-style barbecued seafood and steaks. You can also sing for your supper and they'll feed you in return. Seriously.

  4. Old Pearler Restaurant

    Avast, mateys! Built from shell bricks, and feeling downright nautical, this atmospheric haven does fantastic seafood. The exceptional platter features local red emperor, whiting, cray, prawns and squid with nary a chip in sight, as it's all grilled, not fried.
