Colemans Seafood Temple South Shields

Colemans Fish and Chips have been a South Shields institution for almost 100 years now. The takeaway and restaurant on Ocean Road in the town centre, has had visitors from miles around since it opened.
The seafood Temple on the fabulous South Shields seafront is however, a relatively new addition and after years of negotiating with town planners, it’s finally here.
On the site of the old bandstand, the seafood temple is a glass fronted restaurant with stunning views out to sea. Equally as good are the award winning fish and chips. The oysters are simply superb and make the Blindtraveller “Oyster league” top 5.
On my last visit a few weeks back, the oysters were incredible and catapulted the restaurant up there with the best worldwide in the Oyster league table. It was not just the taste, or the finding no grit in all 2 dozen, but for me, the fact the that chef had totally removed the oyster from the shell and placed it back so I simply just had to add my tabasco and lemon and swallow straight from the shell. The fish and chips main course were great as always and a bottle of prosecco was reasonably priced.
Every time I am back in the North East this is on the must do list, really good food and exceptional value for money.
