The Bass and Lobster
Latest Reviews
It’s a while since we went to the Bass & Lobster and were worried that we should have booked for Saturday lunch, but fortunately we seemed to hit a very, very quiet day and were almost the only people there, very unusual.
We started by sharing a Tempura King Prawn & Baby Squid, which was deliciously light, but a special mention to the accompanying Asian slaw and coconut mayonnaise style sauce.
I had planned on a seafood main course, but couldn’t resist the idea of the lamb and chorizo burger, and wasn’t disappointed when it arrived, even if it was much bigger than I expected. My wife had traditional fish and chips, again a huge portion and she sensibility left some of the delicious batter that I sampled just to check it was as a good as it looked.
I was too full to order a dessert, but my wife couldn’t resist the special dessert of saffron rice pudding with a sultana, apricot and ginger chutney, ginger and honey ice cream and a pistachio foam topping. We shared one portion, and whilst the combination was very, very good; for me, the ice cream was the star turn.
We had a really fun lunch chatting to the manageress and the waiter and will certainly return, but we will probably book to avoid any chance of disappointment.

We recently visited bass and lobster for a wedding anniversary meal and cannot fault the restaurant. The food was superb, the fish was to die for. Best of all the wonderful service made the occasion so special, Kirsty, Alex and chefs Dave and Andrei were amazing and cannot recommend them enough! Will be visiting again soon! We had a lovely wedding anniversary, thanks very much

My husband and I visited yesterday for lunch it was a set menu, very good value, food was delicious, they serve a homemade bread, that was very nice, the staff are so accommodating and polite, they also serve an unusual list of homemade ice creams worth a try we enjoyed it

We have eaten here twice in 4 days as we enjoyed it so much. The food here would grace any top end restaurant and the flavours created by the chef are just amazing. Ingredients that you wouldn't expect to work just do and you are left marvelling at the taste sensations. Don't be put off by the slightly drab exterior, book a table and enjoy a meal that you won't forget.

Being local, we' ve eaten at The Bass & Lobster several times and we always had fantastic meals! Once again this time, our meal was superb; Dave' s cooking demonstrates fine execution and creativity. The front of house headed by Kirstie is extremely well managed, professional, polite and very efficient!
See you soon!

From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we were made to feel valued. The service was excellent and so was the food. I had the courgette flower stuffed with curried lobster mousse, my husband had duck wanton, both of which were beautifully presented and tasted delicious. This was preceded by homemade curried bread with a gorgeous herb dipping oil. We both opted for the lamb and chorizo burger which was equally lovely. We didn’t really have room for dessert but a honey and ginger ice cream had been mentioned so I opted for one scoop. Priced at £2 I expected a small bowl with a scoop of ice cream but again it arrived beautifully presented in a brandy snap basket with a chocolate shard and strawberry garnish. Planning to return tomorrow!!

We usually try to visit The Bass & Lobster on our visits to Jersey, (approx 3 times a year) This visit was Exceptional, our food was served by the Amazing "Kirstie" how she helped with both what was on offer and the wine list. The food was as usual wonderful, I even managed to tuck into a selection of the Chef's amazing ice cream desserts, WOW
We will return, probably again this year. Thank you again

We were staying nearby and were attracted by the good online reviews. We certainly weren't disappointed. The food is quite lovely and, with a bit more attention to detail, will be superb - a missing dressing from a starter, a very messy plate with sauce all over the edges - small things for sure, but these guys have serious ambitions and so they should. The awards come when those little details are right. The chef was kind enough to share the recipe for the totally gorgeous walnut dressing from my starter - that's a nice touch. We're on the island only.for a week and if we can, we'll go back. It was THAT good.

The food was nicely presented, well cooked, and imaginatively put together. Highlights were the halloumi cheese and cous cous starter, fish and chips main, and vanilla cream brûlée. A lot of the food is locally sourced. Overall quality of the food was high. Service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

We were introduced to the Bass and Lobster on our Jersey Food Tour as part of our visit to the Island to celebrate our Silver wedding, and knew we just had to return. The return did not disappoint. The food was sensational and the service was flawless. We cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful restaurant and will visit again when we come back to Jersey.

I only gave this place 5 stars because there is no option for more stars. This place is amazing. I can be quite harsh with reviews (as my other reviews probably reflect) but I cannot commend this place enough.
The whole package, the very unusual manu, the quality of the food. The cleanliness, the staff, the decor.... it's just fantastic.

If i could give this more than 5 stars then I would. What a place!
I had the lamb & chorizo burger .. my god, it was so tasty but huge! Didn't want to leave any but it beat me. My partner had the steak & lobster and he was equally impressed. It really is delicious. It would be maybe what you consider on the slightly pricey side .. but you get what you pay for and I would not second think paying it again for the quality. It was superb.
The staff are all so friendly, very attentive.
It's genuinly just a fantastic place to eat and i am so glad we visited on our very short stay.

And yet again, another superb experience at The Bass and Lobster...
Kirsty and her team consistently deliver new and innovative dishes based on local ingredients.
Yesterday's lunch was one of the best. The biggest problem was choosing what to have...
The fish dishes were so fresh and totally different to what we've ever seen. My razor clams were superb.
I've said it before, consistency is so important for me in a restaurant, and this is one of the few places I've been where it's always excellent.
A perfect lunch - thank you!

Island friends and my wife and I had a terrific lunch the other day with my wife especially enjoying the lobster. Good value, very nicely presented and tasty food, friendly service and we were not even kicked out (whilst we stayed on past everyone else to about 3.00 pm plus!).
We will return (from Australia) when we can.

Ate dinner here every evening as the food, service, ambiance, just about everything was perfect. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Rare to find such great service and food combined under one roof.

We went to this beautiful restaurant on 2 occasions during our stay on Jersey,I had been following the restaurant on Facebook prior to our trip and we were welcomed like long lost friends, we were treated to a complimentary amuse bouche on both occasions which was a lovely addition to our meal, the sea bream was probably the nicest fish dish I have ever eaten, the red thai curry ice cream was amazing with my chocolate brownie! The staff were so lovely,they looked after us and our dog Gracie really well, I cant wait to return x
