THE LOOKOUT SEAFOOD RESTAURANT REGRETTABLY WILL NOT REOPEN FOR SUMMER OF 2023
We have arrived at this sad decision having battled to reopen this seafood summer space for 2023 against the reality of a number of factors including sourcing & accommodating staff. We would like to thank our wonderful loyal customers & friends who have always supported us at The Lookout (formerly Chez Youen) over the past 44 years.
On a more positive note, the Jacob Family will be focusing on our casual bar food, outdoor terraces and newly refurbished pizzeria areas (ground floor areas of hotel) which offer day to day as available, a great selection of strictly locally sourced shellfish including; Galley Head Prawns, Roaring Water Bay Mussels, Sherkin Island Oysters & Brown Crab. These options are now open 7 days a week on a walk in basis (no bookings taken).
The Lookout Restaurant is situated upstairs over Jacob’s Bar enjoying spectacular views of Baltimore Bay & the Islands from its 25 foot panoramic window. The Jacob Family began serving their Breton style fair over 40 years ago in their famous Chez Youen Restaurant. That ethos continues today at The Lookout Restaurant where the traditional family recipes of 40 years past remain true to form. Simple, fresh, uncomplicated fruits of the sea. We also serve a small selection of meat options for those non seafood loving guests. Set menu basis only. Not recommended for children. Bookings from 6p.m.
Our Style
The Lookout
Our aim in The Lookout Restaurant is to provide well produced uncomplicated seafood at reasonable prices in a relaxed environment. The style of food ranges from fresh fish of the day to our famous Seafood Platters which the Jacob family have been serving in their restaurants for over 40 years. We also have a range of meat options for non fish eaters and are happy to cater for medical dietary requirements by prior arrangement. The Lookout Restaurant is not recommended for children. We would encourage families to consider our bar food options.
