Assistant Manager in Training– Rockfish Our latest restaurant in Exmouth is located next to the town slipway overlooking the beautiful Exe estuary. The tide rips past the front of the dining room providing the perfect setting to enjoy some great seafood. Our chefs prepare fresh mussels from the estuary and other local fish which are prepared simply by either crisp frying, grilling or cooking over charcoal. On colder days the restaurant and deck are heated by a log burner and make the atmosphere warm and cosy as the tide continues to run past.
Up to £16 per hour OTE which includes generous tips and gratuities
