EATING

Our yacht harbour berth-holders and visitors have a feast literally on their doorstep. Dartmouth's restaurants, bistros, pubs, cafés and tea rooms are fortunate to have a rich natural larder to choose from. The sea, our lush farms and sheltered orchards have inspired many award-winning producers who have put South Devon on the culinary map of Britain.

ZEPHYR BISTRO

Right next to the yacht harbour ENJOY DRINKS AND DINING AT ZEPHYR, our NEW BISTRO. LUNCH AND DINNER CAN BE TAKEN IN THE RESTAURANT OR IN THE BAR FOR A MORE CASUAL EXPERIENCE. A MENU OF FRESH DISHES WITH A SELECTION OF SHARING PLATES CAN BE ENJOYED DAILY. A HALF DARTMOUTH LOBSTER, Chateaubriand for 2, OR THE Rare breed grill of the day ARE JUST A FEW TO TEMPT YOU.

LOCAL SEAFOOD

Every day, all year round, fishing boats work off our Devon coast to harvest an amazing variety of fish and shellfish. You'll spot them when cruising, bright splashes of colour against the cliffs or empty sea. Small trawlers sometimes fish close inshore and dive boats gather scallops by hand. Crabbers often range far out, working strings of pots several miles long. Meeting them mid-Channel gives a feeling of company.

Catches are landed at Dartmouth, Salcombe and at the busy Brixham fish market. Whenever you order fish, crab or lobster in a Dartmouth restaurant, it will have been swimming about earlier that day!

In town try the Seahorse where Mitch Tonks and his team serve exceptional seafood cooked skilfully and simply, often roasted over an open charcoal fire.
