About Aces Ocean Foods

Aces Ocean Foods anchors Padstow with stacked seafood platters, rich lobster mornay, and crisp garlic pizza. Regulars pack out the tables for loaded platters of grilled and fried shellfish, tender salt and pepper calamari, and melt-in-your-mouth sashimi. Long family lunches run easy here thanks to a welcoming crew, a handy BYO setup, and plenty of room for non-seafood eaters to grab a pizza alongside whole grilled snapper. Coeliacs eat without stress too, with dedicated gluten-free options coming straight off the pans. It’s an unpretentious fish-and-chip feast elevated for a big group table, finished with fresh natural oysters drizzled in onion vinaigrette.

  • Generous Seafood Platters: Piled high with fried, grilled, and raw catches including whole snapper and mornay oysters for sharing.
  • BYO Friendly & Group Ready: Casual dining backed by a welcoming team, nearby parking, and outside drink privileges.
  • Dietary & Non-Seafood Choices: Serves fresh garlic and Margherita pizzas alongside dedicated gluten-free seafood preparation.
