About

The food here is about great produce prepared simply at the hands of cooks who really love to east themselves. Crabs are dressed to order for the house crab salad and specialities of the restaurant include local bass roasted in sea salt, a plate of locally caught fried fish and the signature, spaghetti with seafood cooked only for two. The sea is right outside the restaurant and the seafood is first class. The local meat in the West Country is wonderful and much of what is supplied to the restaurant is reared on nearby Dartmoor and the South Hams, however a wonderful T Bone of Tuscan Chianina can often be found on the menu as can fresh Mozzarella from Naples, new seasons olive oil and Sardinian artichokes & sea urchins.

The Seahorse has a wine list of over 150 bottles including some very respectfully priced classics, the owners want the wine to be drunk and their selection experienced, so each day the owners will select four or five bottles from the list and sell them by the glass. The restaurant lets great produce and simple cooking speak for itself and service is just how you would expect it, so comfortable you could eat here regularly. 

Friend and musician Mark Ely regularly hosts the dining room, offering the warmest of welcomes and often plays a fantastic live acoustic set of some of his songs and a few covers.

The Seahorse is run by Mitch Tonks and his great friend and long term business partner Mat Prowse.
