Loch Fyne – Sevenoaks

This is a good bordering on very good restaurant. I’ve been here several times. It’s a fishmongers as well as a restaurant which means that in addition to whatever is on the menu, you can ask them to cook you anything from their fishmonger’s stock. Their twice fried chips are very pleasant and really it’s all quite good. Their chilli prawn and tempura squid starters are both good too. They also have a kids menu!
Unfortunately on my most recent visit I asked for steamed halibut and something tasted a little sour about it. It is this sort of moment and how it is handled that separates serious restaurants from the pretenders. I mentioned the fish to the waitress. She took it back to the kitchen and returned saying that I could have anything from the menu and that it would be complimentary and rushed through. I elected to have a ribeye steak. When the bill arrived both the halibut and the ribeye had not been charged and the manager apologised as we left.
An isolated experience that could have written this place off for me was turned into a complete success by a superb approach to customer service and left me with no hesitation recommending the place.

One of my favourite places to eat locally. Delicious food and helpful staff.

Liked it here. I’m an anti corporate (Greene King?) but a sucker for fish & my belly always wins! We had fish pie (note to owners a pie is NOT a bowl full of fish with a pastry lid. Aaargh!!!) but my fave was delicious squid in salt and pepper with wasabe mayo as a starter. It’s good that there’s a fish place like this in town & the staff were very nice. Go

A wonderful evening out: delicious food, a pleasant setting and friendly, knowledgable staff. The food was fresh and tasty. I had the whitebait to start, followed by the braden rost salmon, with a whisky and oyster mushroom sauce served with mashed potato. The salmon was particularly delicious. My parents had herrings (from the specials) and smoked salmon to start, and then fishcakes for main. All were great, apparently. A bit on the priceier side, but definitely worth it.

The first time I ate here was just after it opened, there was a party of about 26 of us. The staff coped really well with such a large crowd. I have since been back twice. The seafood is always fantastic, very fresh. The menu although not extensive has good choices. I recommend their mussels; the smoked salmon and the mash potatoes were also delicious. My son had the soup last time and raved about it, the accompanying bread was warm and fresh. The waiter who served me last time was very knowledgeable about the food on the menu, he also tempted me to try food that I wouldn’t have necessarily have chosen myself. This is a lovely place to come if you enjoy good food, a very relaxed atmosphere.
