The Bass and Lobster
Latest Reviews
This was one of several visits this summer as the inclination to eat elsewhere in Jersey has completely diminished.
It is difficult to think of anywhere else on the island with the same level of quality with regards to dishes (food quality, locality, innovation and presentation) and the same commitment to high quality, personal feeling customer service.
In a world where prices are rising and hospitality is struggling for staff, the Bass & Lobster always manage to deliver what often seems impossible in Jersey: 5 star customer service and food at an affordable price.
Gorey village is a few minutes’ walk away and there is a bus stop opposite, so this is a great choice if visiting the island on holiday.
That is a scoop of bacon, honey and mustard ice cream you can see with my starter of locally sourced scallops. I’m still thinking about it now!
10/10

AMAZING!!! From the warm homemade bread provided for the table to the beautiful homemade chocolate truffles that arrived with the bill, our experience at The Bass and Lobster was 5 stars!! We had the fish and chips, catch of the day and jersey royals, lamb and duck and each of us loved our mains! I had the catch of the day which was mackerel with caper butter! (who knew I love caper butter?!) But the real stand-out was the ice cream flavours!! I had stilton cheese ice cream with blackberry and thyme sorbet! Sounds weird but was honestly so delicious!! Definitely go try some of their weird and wonderful flavours. Service was also absolute first class with all who helped us being friendly and attentive.

One of the best meals ever. Lots of choices and everything we had was cooked to perfection with so many different flavours. Can't fault the food or the very attentive staff that were excellent. Top marks only wish we could go again but only on holiday.

So welcoming as I was on my own. Very attentive and guided through the menu. Great choice fresh homemade and beautifully presented. First night I had the Crab Moussy thing- then the battered fish and chips. Then was presented with a homemade chocolate truffle. Wow!2nd night decided to try the Oysters for the very first time so fresh, followed by the Jersey Pork chop so tasty and lots of care in the presentation .
Lovely family run restaurant who know how to please Brilliant

Perfect service & food. Could not have wished for a better meal. Recommend the Bass & Lobster main course & also the Turbot. Sipping Rhubarb Gin is also delightful

Absolutely perfect service & food. Had Oysters for starter which were lovely & fresh. Our main courses were the Bass & Lobster and the Turbot with mussels could not fault & everything was fresh. There Sippin Rhubarb Gin was also perfect with Ginger Ale.
Would thoroughly recommend & will definitely come again next time we are in Jersey

Went for dinner on last night of holiday, booked prior which I would suggest. Great atmosphere, all staff so friendly and welcoming lots of ideas from kitchen too. The food was fantastic, three lobster starter original tasty and perfectly presented as was the foie gras. The bass and lobster main was a delight for the taste buds. Definitely worth the visit loved it.

Fantastic meal with friends, set menu had a great choice both vegetarian and meat, super service with a smile.
I'm told the tartar sauce was the best in a long time.
My chicken curry had lots of additions, yoghurt sliced almonds and the bhaji had the lovely addition of chicken Leg, the Caesar salad with lightly pickled quail egg that raised the food to another level,
Sadly we are on the island only a short time otherwise we would have booked then and there to return.Yes we picked a challenging ice-cream alongside the lovely deserts.

Easily the best value top quality meal on the island. Staff are lovely, food is incredible. Try to get in while they have the Crab Moussey Thing (real name) on the menu, it's to die for!

I’ve been meaning to leave this review since returning from a family holiday in Jersey but the weeks have run away with me. I booked a table here after looking at reviews online and as a group we couldn’t have been happier that I did!
I rarely leave Tripadvisor reviews but this place is absolutely worth the effort to report on.
It is without doubt the best restaurant that we ate at on this holiday. So good that after our first meal we booked again and we were only staying for another 4 days at that point.
Not only was the service fabulous and food exquisite they went above and beyond to cater for the vegetarians in our party, producing a menu with even more vegetarian choices for our return visit. Kirsty (I really hope that is the right name) explained all the of options in detail to both the coeliac and vegetarians in our family group. She also spoke about where the produce is sourced and was interesting, helpful and friendly in an effortless way. It’s rare to find service like this but when you do it’s always at the very best of places.
For the meat and gluten eating in our group there were equally as delicious options. The combination of flavours and the thought in the dishes is up there with some of the nicest places we’ve eaten at over the years. The bill here won’t leave you wincing like some of the latter . It’s incredibly good value for the quality and service.
I’m still dreaming of the fried oysters and still disappointed in myself for only ordering three!
We will be back the same week next year and will phone to book in advance. I might pop over for a long weekend before then and I know where I’ll be eating if I do!

I booked this place a week before we arrived in Jersey and got the last table for that night. I am so glad we did. This place is outstanding. Right from the moment you arrive visitors are treated so well. The food is excellent: we had the lamb and lobster. Both were amongst the best we had ever had. Highly recommended; reservations essential.

You know when you go somewhere and you get treated like family when you’ve just rocked up … this is that place, brimming with enthusiasm about all things local produced and seafood we were literally hooked. We booed B&L before we even got on Jersey’s shores and oh my we weren’t disappointed, when I met an old friend in St Helier today who came earlier in the week I knew we were in for a treat ! You must eat here if you are visiting jersey end of….

We had lunch at this amazing restaurant. The menu was incredible, it really was difficult to pick. In the need we went for ‘the moussey crab thing to start’ and the fish and chips for main. The food was 5 stars. The service was excellent. A real gem!

Excellent place where the serving was top notch. The most delicious food made from local ingredients. All in all a great experience. We will definitely be back.
