Manning’s Seafood
Is there anything more quintessentially British than batting away the seagulls as you eat a cup of cockles with a toothpick? Manning’s takes this good old seaside tradition to new heights, selling freshly caught seafood from a small white hut opposite the harbour. Along with all of the classics – whelks, crayfish, prawns and the dreaded jellied eel, Manning’s also serves hot, garlicky green-lip mussels, squid, fishcakes and plump oysters with lemon and tabasco, served with cold glasses of prosecco.
