Had a lovely meal this evening. I had the delicious tempura beef to start, a fresh fish and chips, and a warm, wintery crumble for desert. Would highly recommend. The staff were very attentive and friendly.

Went for Sunday lunch yesterday and it didn’t disappoint. A 3 course set menu with lots of choice hard to decide what to have. We went with Green soup and whitebait both had roast Beef and plum and apple crumble defiantly what was needed on a rainy cold day I think I used the word stunning ! Service is very welcoming and friendly and strict with following covid guidelines which is great to see. Looking forward to getting booked in again for a different menu during the weekdays. Definitely one not to miss!!

A great restaurant to visit. The staff were great and wery friendly and the food was just WOW! A fantastic menu and very talented team. The pinical of the meal was the Ultimate Cheeseboard. Celery Sorbe and Stilton Ice-cream was the perfect addition to the goats cheese.

The starter for both of us was the crispy tempura chilli beef! Had this dish elsewhere before, but this knocked spots off the others, really delicious with just the right amount of heat. Both had the jersey pig dish, faultless, so tender and tasty with fabulous vegetable sides and lovely “jus” Independent table menu, great value.
Was in our top five places to eat Now firmly positioned at the top #1
Thanks Kirstie and teamSee you soon

We were staying in Gorey harbour for a week and worked our way around all the restaurants, It’s about a 10-15 minute walk from the harbour to the restaurant along the coast path. The restaurant is charming as were the staff. Service was excellent and our meal was delicious and we. Thought, excellent value. We would thoroughly recommend.

It was our first time visiting Jersey and certainly won't be the last, our friends had been to the bass before and had booked a table on the Saturday night for my birthday, straight away we we're made to feel extremely welcome, the front of house staff are amazing, now on to the food, well what can I say apart from amazing, we ate from the alacarte, homemade bread's and oils before our starters, I had the scollops to start and the bass and lobster for main and the best chocolate brownie ever, safe to say we enjoyed every part of our experience, enough to return for Sunday roast lunch and also for the set £20 lunchtime menu on the Thursday, can't emphasize enough how much we enjoyed the bass and lobster foodhouse, it is a must when visiting this gorgeous island, p.s the sorbets will blow your mind

We went there based on reviews on Trip Advisor and were not disappointed.Luckily they fitted us in at short notice and I was over the moon with the reception we received.The menu was varied,catering to all tastes and prices,but above all was fresh and homemade.We didn't choose a starter so we were pleasantly surprised when a basket of the most gorgeous bread was placed in front of us with a good choice of oils & accompaniments.The main course,which was fish,was incredible and fresh with fresh vegetables.We couldn't go without trying a selection of homemade ice creams & sorbets followed by fresh coffee.All in all this was a memorable night with a meal that will take a long time to forget.Thanks.

The restaurant had lovely friendly staff and nice atmosphere.
I highly recommend the local goats cheese in filo for a starter which came with very tasty local tomatoes. For my main I had the jerk king prawn Caesar salad which was spicy and fresh and probably the best Caesar salad I have ever had. Obviously I also ordered the truffle chips to go with it which were impressive.
The fish and chips was with local place which was also good.
There was a good selection of french wines in the menu which is always good to see.
This is my new favourite restaurant, see you again soon.

Just writing this review is making my mouth water! Great varied menu - such a difficult choice to make for starters. Served with gherkins, olives, generous homemade chilli oil, herby butter was freshly made squid-ink bread-very different and moreish. We chose Freddies' softly boiled Quail eggs with tasty mushrooms on a brioche and appetizing lobster tempura with dipping sauce - so flavoursome. The catch of the day was plaice but I think I made the better choice of Crab stuffed Agnolotti which was just heavenly served with seered sweetcorn, a crab sauce and a delicious crispy chicken skin and samphire. Every dish was nicely presented and tasted even better. Kirstie and her team are tops, very attentive and great care is taken with hand sanitizers and cleanliness and many compliments to Simon too for the love and care he takes in delivering these great dishes. A booking is essential as the restaurant Saturday lunchtime was full with some outside tables being occupied too. Superb!

What a treat at the bass and lobster last night. I had been looking forward to the crab agnotti (apologise for sp!) all day and I wasn’t disappointed. Sweet crab meat with a beautiful sharp picked cucumber and sweet corn. My lamb main was cooked to perfection and the joy of the ultimate cheese board with its Stilton and celery icecream scoops was genius and delicious. The menu changes all the time and the staff service is tip top. I know where I ll be spending my £100!

Had lunch there yesterday was disappointed with the food - tempura oysters very greasy mains were not very hot - overpriced for portion size. Hosting skills good but oversell on local produce

Fantastic food in a great location in Jersey. Found it through trip advisor for lunch and will definitely come back for both a casual meal or a special occasion. Highly recommended and was very impressed with how the chef mixed flavours, textures, temperatures and created remarkable dishes! The goat cheese starter was one of the best starters I've ever tried :)

The four of us couldn’t fault our meal from starters to coffee and dessert.
The staff couldn’t have been more friendly, we felt so welcome from the moment we stepped out the car. We enjoyed the homemade breads to start and couldn’t have been more impressed by the starters when they quickly arrived. We had the lobster tempura, scallops, stuffed courgette flower (special menu) and tempura oysters. The fact so many of the ingredients were locally sourced just made everything taste even better.
After this fantastic start we then had our mains: fish (of the day) with parmesan truffle chips, bass with truffled potato croquette, and the mackerel. Like the starters, each dish was absolutely delicious, so well thought out and balanced. None of us wanted to miss out on dessert, the chocolate and hazelnut brownie was perfect and gooey, the Bakewell tart was great and the vast selection of ice creams (loved the cinnamon and hazelnut caramel) were so wonderful and creamy with flavours to suit everyone!
We were then surprised by homemade chocolates which were brilliant. We are a family of good cooks but none of us could have expected or even cooked a better meal ourselves. Everything here was cooked to perfection. We can’t wait to return for another meal, clear out the ‘larder’ homemade chilli jam supplies, and couldn’t recommend the bass and lobster more strongly! Thank you!

From arriving at The Bass and Lobster, we received nothing but excellence! Fabulous greeting and service from Kirstie and her team, her knowledge and explanation of the menu made us excited to order and taste what was on offer! We were not disappointed. Oysters were sweet, best I’ve ever tasted! We ordered 4 but I had to have three as they were so delicious (my poor hubby)! We then had Chris and Chloe Gould’s scallops, broccoli, pea purée and crisp bacon curls, not forgetting Freddie’s quail eggs ... what can I say apart from my taste buds were exploding as this combo nailed it! I then had the Sea Bass and Tempura Lobster, my husband had Mackerel. Both fish cooked to perfection, complimented with purée and croquet and The Mackerel, Jersey potatoes and green beans - delicious! I had to try the Apple and cherry Bakewell tart with jersey ice cream and a creamy custard, it sounded too good to be true but I wasn’t disappointed. Compliments to the chef for the most delicious meal we have ever had the pleasure of tasting and Kirstie for your fabulous warm welcome and your teams impeccable Covid-19 precautions and service! This restaurant source all local ingredients, it’s fresh and creatively put together leaving you wanting more! I can’t speak highly enough and definitely recommend visiting, you won’t be disappointed and “we will be back” on our next visit. Thank you for a fabulous, memorable evening.

What a treat, everything from start for finish was perfect. The staff made us feel very comfortable with the social distancing whilst still making us feeling together. The food was amazing, we had the set menu which was fantastic value and all courses were delicious. After our lunch we had a final drink in the sun. Every thing was thought of from the home made breads and homemade oils, hummus and cordial to the outside seating areas (sun spots and shaded areas).
We had a great day and will definitely be back. Thank to the whole team for making our first girly lunch an absolute pleasure!

Our last meal before lockdown was at The Bass and Lobster on 21st March 2020, we now June, and with restrictions starting to lift we choose to go back to, it's been far too long, but it was worth the wait.
A stunning meal, tempura oysters with coconut mayo, courgette flowers stuffed with crab, seabass with lobster, we had the works. A huge thanks to Kirsty and the team, great service under difficult circumstances with social distancing.

Been a while since we have been because hadn't enjoyed last 2 trips and friends had also said they had been disappointed. We tried again and very happy that we did. Food was so tasty, fresh, creative and well presented. Menu had been refreshed as well as specials board with choice of set menu and a la carte. Plenty of choice, good wine selection, attentive staff and warm ambiance. Back to its best.

As an accomplished cooker, often single-handed who has provided sustenance and charm to visitors for many decades, often there are noticeable little things which take the shine off eating out .
So when a friend asked me to join her Birthday Party at the Bass and Lobster I was delighted to have the opportunity of going there for the first time, no reason for that, just wanted the occasion and time.
What surprised me was that as soon as I entered I could absorb a warm vibe. You knew that even if the food was different to what you would normally eat, it was going to be selected, cooked and served by professionals to a very high standard,
No disappointments, no complaints, no criticism. Even had draught beer on tap @ £4,50 a pint to refresh the palette at the outset of a memorable evening,
Tops Tops !!!
