2. Quiddles Cafe

Our first visit to Portland and was recommended Quiddles by friends. Received a warm welcome, friendly staff! Too many tables for such a small room - the man on the table next door was uncomfortably close and in my space! Calamari starter in heavy unpalatable batter but the calamari itself was tasty. Scallops ok but served with a very tired and too much salad. The chips were okay and piping hot so some consolation! Tablecloth wasn't clean and wallpaper peeling - could do well with a little bit more attention to detail and some tlc!

Free onsite parking and quirky restaurant with big fish basins for the freshest fish ever. Extensive wine list and a starter from heaven. Mussels in a peppery cream sauce and makerel mouse for my wife. The main skate wings with baby potatoes and veg was amazing. Lemonsole for me most tender and fresh. The perfect Antidote to any chain restaurant for any fish lover. In summer it must be great to sit outside. We loved it.

Clearly has a great location and views but the tea, cakes and kids drinks weren’t amazing.
However, can’t complain as it’s still good

On a blustery spring evening I hastily made my way to this slice of Portland stone carved into the format of a public house. I was greeted with an onslaught of warmth love and subtle scents of oak burning in the open fire. Slightly apprehensive I shuffled toward the beaming waitress behind the bar and ordered a pint of Doombar (on tap I'm not afraid to add!). I swallowed it down after parting with British currency. My day was made. I nestled my well toned buttocks into the nearest cushioned seat and purred lightly whilst sipping my golden goblet. Thank you all at the cove for your amicable generosity. I will be back soon.

Regularly eat here, friendly staff and atmosphere, food is amazing, bit pricey for some, however I don’t begrudge paying for good food. My boys ate every scrap (highly unusual for them) they enjoyed the outside play area , will of course be going back soon, one of my favourite places to eat, scallops are to die for, and my steak is always cooked to perfection, highly recommend
