Trawlers

One of Seaford's better-known seafood spots, this fish and chip restaurant and takeaway sits in the heart of the old town, an easy walk from the seafront. There is a relaxed sit-down dining area as well as a counter for orders to take away, and the kitchen turns out the seaside classics cooked fresh to order — a generous Cod and Chips, battered haddock, plaice, scampi and homemade fishcakes, all with proper chunky chips, mushy peas and the usual sauces.

Recently taken on by new owners keen to lift its reputation, it is rated 4.5/5 by Tripadvisor reviewers, who highlight crisp, light batter and fresh fish. As with many busy chippies the experience can vary at peak times, so it suits anyone after honest, no-frills seaside cooking rather than anything fancy. Vegetarians will find a handful of meat-free sides, and the easygoing, family-friendly setting makes it a handy stop whether you are eating in or carrying a hot supper down to the beach.
