The Fat Fish – Plettenberg Bay

Enjoy the finest, sustainably sourced seafood available, platters of delicate sushi and a variety of innovative contemporary dishes within a stone’s throw of the sea in Plettenberg Bay. All perfectly complemented by an award-winning wine list, classic cocktails and extensive craft gin selection.

The dramatic all-teal contemporary interior affords perfect views of the ocean and the famous Beacon Isle Hotel, while the large open terrace and outdoor Sushi Bar ensure the ultimate venue for al fresco dining on a perfect Plett day.

Open for lunch and dinner, The Fat Fish is a perennial favourite with locals and holidaymakers alike, valued for its exacting standards of friendly, knowledgeable service, quality seafood and some of the finest sushi and wine on the Garden Route.

Please note The Fat Fish is situated upstairs in the Milkwood Centre. Should you require access due to a disability or injury, please contact the restaurant directly to arrange for the private, back entrance to be opened.

    Outstanding service from all staff - in particular the lady at reception who placed us at our table and our very charming waitress - wonderful views and a most enjoyable evening. Food was mostly excellent and I would certainly return to this restaurant and can recommend it!
