The Bass and Lobster
Latest Reviews
Excellent value set menu and the food was superb. Excellent choice on all courses. I had the lobster Thermidor which I was surprised featured on a set menu that costs only £17 for 3 courses. It was excellent along with the rest of the food. Service was efficient and friendly. My wife had the chorizo and squid warm salad starter and said it was probably the best starter she'd ever had anywhere - high praise! Overall cannot recommend highly enough.

We went back to the Bass and Lobster this week on their lunchtime special menu. My last visit was not so good but this time, the Bass and Lobster has excelled. For approximately £14 a head for 3 courses the quality and value of the food was first class. A great starter of chorizo and tempura squid, main course of rabbit and black pudding and a scrumptious dessert. Wine by the glass was generous and reasonably priced and the three of us had a great lunch in relaxed surroundings with efficient and friendly service.
The Bass and Lobster is back on my radar and regains my vote!Well worth a visit.

I go to The Bass & Lobster regularly, the food is excellent and the set menu really good value for a reasonable price. Plenty of choice and excellent specials all well presented. Classed as a gastro pub.

Delicious meal, we had the set menu, which at £17 (I think) was excellent value. None of our party had any food envy, everyone loved the whole meal!

We lunched today at the Bass & Lobster, the Table D'Hote menu was £13.95 excluding service, there was a good and interesting choice for each course, the food is best described as Fusion, it was nicely presented and tasted great, service was efficient and friendly. The choice of wine was reasonable, this is after all a pub and not a Michelin starred restaurant, with wines starting at under £20 a bottle. We had been meaning to try this restaurant for sometime, but had never got around to it until today, which is a shame as we have really missed out.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in Jersey.
The food is great, not too fancy and messed around with, but just lovely flavours. The portion sizes are very adequate, just enough to make me feel full but not stuffed so I can't move. Had the set menu tonight which was beautiful and great value for 3 courses and drinks. Can't understand the bad reviews at all, its such lovely food :/

Empty restaurant but staff stood chatting rather than attending to us. Food average...twice cooked chips soggy! Forgot card and was made to feel like a criminal by giving a cheque !

Went for lunch and asked for a table for 2. Although the restaurant was clearly not full, was asked curtly whether we had a reservation. Was then pointed to a table by the waiter who never smiled or made us feel welcome. Food was good but the unfriendly attitude of the waiter put us off going back.

My family really like this place, but I don't. I get dragged there every few months and despite this my opinion of the place doesn't get better
The room is soul less and the tables too small. There is no view. The menu is a bit limited, and given the name you would expect lobster on the menu.... Not always. The last visit a couple of weeks ago was similar to my previous experience. I had Prawn and Calamari tempura starter which had been cooked in oil that wasn't hot enough so it was soggy and oily.For mains I had a rib eye steak which was fine, but the chips and onion rings were cooked in the same under heated oil, so soggy and indelible. Family wouldn't let me complain. Sticky toffee pudding just wasn't either sticky or toffee.
Service not inspiring. Not cheap, Sumas a bit more expensive, better value and a nice view.
Nice Chablis though

We were big fans of the Bass and Lobster, particularly with their £14 for two courses. We went on Friday night and again, it was bustling. We ordered similar things ie the mushroom starter or fish cake and the burger as mains. To be honest, it was all fairly average. I still hear very good reports about it so maybe we were just there on one of those OK nights and maybe it depends on who is cooking your food. The chunky chips are just OK but one of our group couldn't eat hers.
The wine by the glass has gone up considerably and it cost £150 for the 4 of us for fairly average burger and chips and house wine.Sadly I wouldn't rush back as there are better options in the area e.g. Feast.
B&L needs to raise its game and be more consistent.

Just visited again. We eat here often and find the service and menu excellent. The portions are medium size - which suits us very well, especially as the desserts are so lovely that we want to be able to eat it. The set menu is good value and there is a rally good choice of wines by the bottle or y the glass to compliment your meal. Maybe if quantity rather than quality is your thing you might be better elsewhere - some people do seem to need an overflowing plate but if you want a good value three course well presented meal, this is the place!

Excellent food and very reasonably priced. Good service and interesting menu, we go as often as we can afford. Only downside here is the lack of view, but don't let that put you off.

5 of us dined here midweek. Only 2 choices on the specials board. Set menu sounded good so we all went with that in varying choices. Starters presented well but size (small) and taste was a let down. Main course again looked good but mine was gone in less than 5 minutes the portion was so small and lacked taste. Cannot even remember what was under my salmon. No atmosphere here although there were a few people dining. Little things that wouldnt normally bother us, rock hard butter definately from a freezer and little bread just added to the fact that this whole experiencce was a let down.

Four of us ate here during our stay in Jersey and we all had a lovely meal. We all ate different items off the menu and all really enjoyed everything. The service was efficient and staff were friendly and helpful. The range of starters and main courses was extensive and offered a wide range of items. In my personal opinion the range of desserts was a little more limited but this is probably down to my taste.

The set menu makes for a great value meal without any compromise on food quality or presentation. The meringue sweet is particularly to be recommended if you are fed up with the dry powdery things which are often served up.

What a fantastic lunch we had - even the in-laws were happy and they're fairly hard to please!
One of our party is visually-impaired and likes a restaurant with good natural light, we got it. The kids don't want deep-fried nuggets and chips - they could order most things of the menu in smaller portions.I want something I couldn't cook better myself at home - I certainly couldn't match this chef. My husband wanted a happy family lunch - he got that too!
