Outstanding food and excellent service at a great price. I had the Fish Soup and the Dover Sole my fist visit. Soup was good, the sole was outstanding. Next visit I got the Seafood Chowder and the Trio of a small Sole, a Sea Bass filet and a Mackerel filet. All were well prepared. I want to go back already!

Visiting family, from Australia. Lovely family run business. Fresh fish and seafood..including fresh calamari. Lobster was stunning. Home made crowded and homemade dessert. Visited several times in our 9 day trip. Sorry didn't take more photos... too busy eating

Fabulous family meal out - the lobster platter was amazing. The garlic mushrooms were definitely a stand out and so delicious. It’s our second visit and we can’t wait to come back again. Big shout out to the staff who were incredibly friendly and welcoming!!

This Hidden Gem is the place to go if you enjoy Seafood! The portion sizes are excellent and they have a Vast range of options to choose from!
This is more than Fish and Chips, this is a top notch restaurant for lovers of all types of seafood! The Prawn cocktail was delicious, and The Large Haddock and chips with Garden peas were outstanding and exactly as it said on the menu, Large!
I would definitely come back here again next time I am in Plymouth, it has to be one of the best places to eat in the Barbican!
Perfect for a good quality sizable meal before a night out on the town or as a trip in it's own. Don't miss your chance to eat here if you are ever in town!- Meal type

Looking for somewhere to eat on the Barbican, Plymouth..found Platters ...what a good choice I had the trio of fish ..which was Gunnard, Plaice & Bass... Absolutely cooked perfectly, my wife had the Crab Sandwich which she really enjoyed both come with limitless chips, we really enjoyed the experience, match that with a lovely atmosphere and great servers, needless to say I think we will be going back.

Popped down to the Barbican today, and took a chance on Platters restaurant, and we were not disappointed. Great service, fantastic food, and plentiful portions. Prices were not excessive for the quality of the food and service, and wouldn’t hesitate to pay a return visit. 👍

A friend of mine recommended Platters, and I definitely owe him a beer!
Fantastic, friendly service with great quality seafood!
My daughter and I both went for the cod and chips, and we were not disappointed. The batter was perfect, with a slight crunch and a beautiful flaky cod inside - delicious. The chips were very good - non-greasy, which is very rare today!
We both had a pudding of chocolate fudge cake and crème brûlée; we were absolutely stuffed!
The restaurant is a nice, friendly size with colourful, sea-themed artwork on the walls.
We would happily return!- Service

The food is really good and very fresh. Fish, in particular, is amazing. For £15 you will get a very big portion of chips with extremely generous fresh portion of fish. Staff are so polite and tentative but not in your face. Place is on Barbican, if visiting excellent place to have something to eat. Highly recommend visiting when in Plymouth.

The seafood is very fresh, the cooking method is very good, the staff explained carefully, it is worth going again. Next time, I will make a reservation and order lobster in advance.

Small and cosy restaurant. Fresh fish and waitresses are very nice. Octopus is great wich surprise me. But the seafood paella is a bit too salty. Good value of price. It’s our second time here. And it was great! We had a seafood platter which is superb. It was 4 stars on last time and five stars for today ! The waiter is very friendly and patients . Thx
