Review by hotel critic
I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Rising Sun during a special getaway-an experience that tantalized my taste buds as a marine biologist and devoted food enthusiast. The restaurant's cozy ambiance is enhanced by its stunning views of the harbor, creating a perfect backdrop for an exceptional culinary journey. The menu caters to a variety of palates, showcasing a delightful selection of local produce, including Exmoor game and Porlock Bay oysters. As someone who appreciates sustainable practices, I found the emphasis on fresh seafood, like the landed Lynmouth Bay lobster, aligns beautifully with my oceanic values. Breakfast was particularly memorable; I indulged in a full English delight, complete with grilled kippers and freshly baked beans. The presentation was thoughtful, and it set the tone for a wonderful day ahead. The staff exemplified warmth and hospitality, ensuring every aspect of my dining experience was attentive without being intrusive. I also appreciated the bar area, where one can enjoy a drink while observing the local surfing scene-an idyllic way to soak in the essence of the coast. The Rising Sun is an excellent choice for those seeking culinary innovation paired with a captivating seaside environment.
