Rick Stein Reverts To 1975 Menu Prices To Celebrate 50 Years

2025 marks a momentous milestone for Rick Stein Restaurants: an impressive 50 years since Rick Stein CBE and Jill Stein OBE opened their first restaurant, the iconic Seafood Restaurant in Padstow. To celebrate the golden anniversary, Stein’s are rolling back prices at select restaurants for four days at lunchtime from Thursday 6th – Sunday 9th February, offering classic seafood dishes at 1975 prices.

It’s fastest finger first on this one as there are a limited number of lunch bookings available. Reservations go live on Friday 24th January at 10am and bookings must be made through this link only: www.rickstein.com/the-seafood-restaurant-50/rolled-back-menu/

Seafood lovers are in for a treat – samples dishes on the Rolled Back & Retro Menu include shellfish soup for 50p; grilled lobster for £2.80; seafood thermidor for £2.20; Cornish Bouillabaisse for £2.60; plus desserts including treacle tart for 35p and apple pancakes with Calvados sauce for 40p.

Experience dishes that built a legacy, at prices that haven’t been seen in decades, with the Rolled Back & Retro Menu available at Rick Stein Barnes (London), Winchester, Marlborough, Sandbanks and of course, where it all began, The Seafood Restaurant in Padstow.

What’s more, 25 tables of two across the five restaurants will be set aside for community nominations, allowing people to recognise someone truly deserving of this special lunch. Nominate a friend or family member via the link here to ensure they have the chance to enjoy this unique experience.
