Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The foremost highlight of Mrs Will the Fish is undoubtedly the freshness of the seafood. Patrons rave about the dressed crab and lobster, often praising the exceptional taste and quality. Many visitors are surprised at how the takeaway presents the dishes with a flair typically reserved for fine dining. The convenience of enjoying gourmet meals by the beach elevates the experience. The service is also frequently complimented; Jan's friendly demeanor creates a welcoming environment that keeps customers returning. Additionally, the prices are considered very reasonable for the outstanding quality and generous portions, whether for a quick bite or a full platter.
Most Disliked
Some patrons express disappointment regarding the limited seating options since Mrs Will the Fish primarily operates as a takeaway. Without indoor or outdoor seating, it may not be ideal for those wanting a sit-down meal. A few reviews mention that during peak times, certain items may sell out quickly, especially the more popular seafood platters. This could suggest arriving early or calling ahead to ensure you get exactly what you want. Because it's situated in a residential area, parking could be tricky at busy times, although the beach is just a stroll away.

We enjoyed an absolutely phenomenal Half Lobster platter from Jan for our lunch today! Post hiking the coastal path for the last few days knew a stop in Solva was approaching, and called Jan a couple of days ago regarding a Half Lobster platter to fuel us on the next step of our journey. She was more than accommodating, despite not being at home, and on arrival today had our order ready to go. Sitting in the tranquil Solva harbor, we enjoyed a myriad of prepared delights; Lobster, Crab, and King Prawns. All gloriously prepared and absolutely divine on the palate. Ever in anticipation of my return!

What a delight. Thank you, Mrs Will the Fish. Thoroughly enjoyed the platter. We paired it with crusty bread from Loafly in Tenby, some Welsh butter and a good squeeze of lemon. Enjoyed on Whitesands beach

This was an absolute gem of a find, we were looking for some fresh seafood in Solva and this place definitely didn’t disappoint. Rather than a shop as sorts she runs this out of her own home and has fresh crab and lobster brought to her from the harbour each afternoon. She then proceeds to make dressed crab and lobster which definitely didn’t lack in presentation and was exceptional in taste! She was absolutely lovely and full of personality and made us feel extremely welcome! The seafood was also very reasonable priced and as you can see from the photos was of excellent standard. I would recommend this to anyone and will Be raving about it to anyone that will listen who is planning on visiting the area, well worth the 5 stars

Can't recommend enough. We rang Mrs Will the Fish at 9.00am (the time to ring to see what is available for the day) and ordered the platter for two. We had to pick it up at midday to 1.00pm window. Everything was prepared from her kitchen, and paid for by card. We ate it in the evening, it was delicious and so fresh. Worth every penny in my opinion.

The best freshly caught local seafood you'll ever taste. Crabs are beautifully dressed, the brown meat is always the best. Our platter was £25 which was excellent value for money considering the quality. You can't visit the area and not get a seafood platter
