Rick Stein
About
Rick Stein Fistral is a laid‑back beachside restaurant in Newquay that offers the freshest Cornish fish & chips alongside inventive curry twists and a selection of global dishes. Situated on top of the golden sands of Fistral Beach, guests can dine with a panoramic view of the Atlantic, a direct barbecue, and the rhythmic sound of waves. The menu includes classics such as Cornish lobster rolls, moules marinière, the signature Singapore chilli crab burger, as well as child‑friendly options and dog‑friendly treats. Families and solo diners alike are welcomed, with highchairs available for little ones and a relaxed atmosphere that encourages socialising at the beach. While the restaurant does not take reservations, a virtual queue system ensures a smooth experience during peak periods. Guests can also pre‑order takeaway via the Rick Stein app for a hassle‑free beachside meal. We recommend a visit of 90 minutes to explore the full menu, savour fresh seafood, and enjoy the sea breeze, especially in the late afternoon when the view is particularly stunning. With its friendly staff, fresh ingredients, and unobstructed beach views, Rick Stein Fistral stands out as a must‑visit destination for both locals and tourists.
