About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
Rocky Bottoms started out as an 1800s brick kiln with a purpose to fire bricks. Eventually the brick kiln was unable to compete with larger competitors and closed down after WW2. Since this time the brick kiln has offered itself as agricultural storage until it collapsed and stood derelict.

In 2008 the brick kiln’s potential and need of restoration was spotted by local fishing family; The Matthews. After years of love and attention, Rocky Bottoms, as we know it today was born. Our doors opened in May 2015, just in time for the start of the crab season. We deliver local shellfish from pot to plate in a laid back environment. Rocky Bottoms believes in enjoying the simpler things in life!

    We had a lovely evening . We have been here a few times before and have never been disappointed. The men had the large sharing platter and thoroughly enjoyed it. My friend and I had the haddock and chips and it was great . The batter was so thin and crisp it was lovely . We didn’t really need a starter as we were both so full . We had a lovely evening and will definitely be back ,

    The views from the glass room are fabulous, such a wonderful place to sit and eat in a leisurely manner. The lobster was incredible, as was the lobster pappardelle. The service was excellent, the staff were very pleasant & polite, they didn’t make us feel rushed at all. Overall we found it a wonderful experience !
