Corkers

A delightful seafood restaurant right on the quay at Poole. I’m giving it five stars because the staff are so welcoming and the service is excellent.

The restaurant is upstairs, which gives a great view over Poole Harbour. (I’m not sure if there is a lift, but I saw a sign saying disabled access.) The decor is tasteful and does not overwhelm, and the lighting is pleasant, neither dim nor bright.

The’re a wide range of starters and entree’s. Most are seafood based, although they do a lovely pea and ham soup. I had fish pie and was not at all disappointed. It had cod, coley, haddock, salmon and prawns, topped with perfect mashed potato and a touch of cheese. It’s probably the best fish pie I’ve had.

Dessert is waiting on the trolley. Oh, what to choose! I had the hazelnut pavlova with raspberries. Delicious, yummy, these words don’t do it justice at all.

The house red is very good and not pricey. There is a well stocked bar and I wish I’d had a liqueur to finish.

All in all, a most pleasant evening. There is some parking on the lower High St, otherwise it’s the multi storey.
