Fatbelly Fred's in North Devon

This place is unbelievable,I've never had food like this in my life me and ten work colleagues came here truly fantastic

Excellent food, lovely staff but the restaurant lacked ambience.

The best food I've ever had. Mussels were cooked perfectly and no grit in any of them. Waiters and waitresses were really nice. Could not recommended this restaurant enough.

Fabulous food last night for our party of 4. Table service was delightful and chef went over and beyond in catering for our every need including one vegetarian plate of stuffed roasted pepper and squash. All enjoyed the meal so thank you all so much!

Absolutely fantastic experience. We ordered the seafood platter and paella main for takeaway and Geoff was so helpful in making sure our order was exactly as we wanted. He clearly takes great pride in his work and the results were delicious. The platter came with lots of extra bits and sauces. The crab, lobster, mussels and oysters were particular favourites. Highly recommend - hopefully we can visit again soon!

Collected our fruit de more this evening, absolutely perfect, beyond all expectations. crab, lobster, langoustine,crayfish, oysters, crevettes....the list goes on and on plus sauces & dips. I could go on but you need to experience it, allow yourself plenty of time to savour every mouthful, you will not be disappointed.

Very friendly family run place with great food and a very nice Freds beer. Portions great, cooked very well at good prices. They aim to please and hit the spot. Well worth a visit if you enjoy seafood even if its a little out of your way. After 6 the local car park is free and its a few minute to the door. Will be going back next time I am in the neighbourhood.

Looking for somewhere to eat whilst on business and chanced upon Fatbellys.Shared the mixed fish dishes with a colleague. Great value and well cooked. Had a chat with the owner/chef after who is clearly committed to an ethos of using local produce cooked well. Service was great, nice place to spend a couple of hours. It deserves to do well. Good luck Fatbellys

Truly Wonderful, amazing & genuinely lovely team a pure delight, I say this honestly an absolute banquet. We were served a delicious piping hot ( cold food pet hate ) fish sharing platter !! Oh MY Goodness what a treat ! The banquet was so big we had to move to a bigger table ! Fred was an perfect gentleman & meeting the chef & his wiife was a treat too. A lovely relaxed evening filled with lovely conversation at a lovely family run establishment. If you are in the area be sure you do not pass the opportunity of trying the culinary wears at Fatbelly Freds ! Thank you for you wonderful hospitality.

We went to Fatbelly Fred's looking for gluten-free food (my partner) and fish (me) and we were not disappointed on either score. We found an excellent range of gluten-free food cooked and served by people who don't just say the words but who know about the difficulties of gluten-free eating. No danger of cross-contamination here! I'd never had dab before so I asked our lovely young waiter what sort of fish it was and, instead of flannelling like most waiters who really mean 'I have no idea' he went to check and was replaced by the chef who gave us chapter and verse about the dab and its provenance. If you want lovely seafood imaginatively cooked and charmingly served I can't recommend Fatbelly Fred's highly enough. And gluten free to boot - what's not to like?!
