About The Dock Café

Perched on the first floor above the marina, this is a spot where you can settle in with children and not feel rushed. Big glass windows look out over the yachts, the room is spacious and quirky enough to keep kids interested, and there's proper space for a pram plus high chairs and outdoor seating. Free parking is a genuine win in Plymouth — just remember to tap your registration into the iPad on arrival. Food is a real cut above: fish and chips in light, non-greasy batter, salt and pepper squid, mussels in a creamy sauce with bread to mop up, and generous breakfasts. Staff are attentive without hovering and food arrives promptly. Two honest snags — it's pricey for what it is, and the room echoes, so weekends get noisy. Worth booking ahead.
