Fabulous pub in a fantastic location right on the cliff and on the coastal path. Great choice of real ales and wines. Good food if a bit pricey. Recommend the famous Craster Crab sandwiches. Great views of the harbour, Dunstanburgh Castle and the sea. Called in for a drink and ended up staying for dinner as the menu was very enticing. After much deliberation I had the seafood platter for one and my wife had the soup and a bowl of beef dripping cooked chips. All the food was very tasty, very well presented and enjoyed with a amazing view up to Dunstanburgh Castle (we sat outside as the weather was lovely). For desert we both had the trio of ice cream. All washed down with a nice pint from a decent selection. All areas outside were dog friendly Due to no time and busy in the restaurant part, we just stopped by the fish&chips trailer to get a sandwich. We got a prawn and crayfish sandwich and chips. The chips turned very good. The sandwich was nice and fresh, served with a little bit of crisps and side on coleslaw which was really nice. We didn't wait long for food. I think the food from trailer is a bit overpriced but I would love to get back and try the food in the restaurant. Great location of the place, there are lots of tables in front and back of the restaurant, the water station for dogs too. After a longish day in the area we headed for Caster to get a coastal atmosphere. We were just in time to order food - a new experience for us that it seems places stop serving at 18:30 However, having said that the was great - too great. I had my first pint in 520 hours since my heart attack, most welcome Pilgrimages were invented for things like the Jolly Fisherman crab soup. I will never not order it. We have been here many times and the food is consistently good, service always friendly and you already know about the amazing location Craster is a little fishing village with a couple of pubs, and the Jolly Fisherman is in a perfect location overlooking the sea. Loads of outside seating both at the front and rear. Great drinks menu, including a good non alcoholic menu. Food selection is great if you love fish. We had the crab soup followed by the fish board and sea trout. Pudding the pannacotta. Dog friendly in the bar. Menus and food pictures at the end. The Jolly Fisherman in Craster is a must-visit place if you like seafood. We had a wonderful there, and the fish platter was a definite highlight. It was packed with a fantastic variety of fresh, perfectly cooked seafood, showcasing the best of what the Northumberland coast has to offer. Beyond the superb food, the staff were incredibly accommodating, finding us a spot in the bar area where we could comfortably enjoy our with our Labrador, Benji. The place itself has a warm, welcoming atmosphere and provides stunning views of the harbour, adding to the overall charm. The service was excellent - attentive but not intrusive - and their dog-friendly approach makes it an ideal spot for a special occasion or a memorable after exploring the beautiful coastal paths. Fabulous location with a terrace overlooking the sea which is dog friendly. Staff were very helpful and attentive. The Kipper was sublime direct from the smokehouse over the road, delicious. Highly recommend. We enjoyed a here on Friday night. The food was and we enjoyed it. The Seafood share board was huge so we had left overs to take away. The only negatives are that as a dog owner you are seated away from the view which is a shame and that other dog owners had dogs on large leads that were not near their tables. It meant that certain dogs were approaching other diners and we had to climb over the dog or the lead to get out from our table. It’s such a small space that it should be monitored a little more. Great birthday here this week. Was so looking out onto the sea for our dinner. Good choice of drinks and great food. My only complaint is there was too many mussels in my dish I struggled to finish it! One of the best meals we had in the area,and one of the best views as well.Staff were all very relaxed dining.Well worth a visit if you are in the area couldn't fault anything.Also worth picking up Craster kippers just across the road you won't be disappointed Great relaxed pub atmosphere, stunning views of the bay and castle especially at sunset. We got the fish platter and a portion of mussels more than enough for two of us. The staff were very friendly.
