Dietary Requirements and Food Allergies

With a minimum of 48 hours advance notice, we are delighted to accommodate most dietary requirements, including vegetarian and vegan. These alternative menus are individually planned and prepared, and therefore are not available to walk-in guests or reservations made on the day.

Please advise us of any allergies or dietary requests when making your reservation, as indicated on the booking form, or if booking for 7 or more guests, by telephone or email.

Please note that we regularly handle fish, shellfish and nuts. As such we cannot guarantee the complete absence of these ingredients or eliminate the risk of airborne contamination.

Cancellation Policy

When you reserve with us, we require a non-refundable deposit of £30 per person by credit card. This deposit will be credited to your final bill or retained by us in the event that your reservation does not go ahead, for whatever reason. We do understand that plans can change, and with sufficient notice, we will do our best to reschedule your reservation. However, please be aware that any cancellation made within 48 hours of the booking cannot be rescheduled and your deposit will be forfeit.

Amendments to party size require a minimum of seven days’ notice. Where notice is provided, deposits guests unable to attend may be credited to your bill or held against a future booking. Where fewer than seven days’ notice is provided, the relevant deposits will be forfeited.

Pre-Dinner Drinks

Pre-dinner drinks on the quayside are available exclusively for our dinner guests, from 5.30pm Tuesday-Saturday. As outside space is limited, please let us know when you book if you will be joining us for drinks. We ask that you arrive 30 minutes before your reservation. We are unable to delay your dinner reservation to accommodate late arrival. Pre-dinner drinks are served in the open air and subject to the elements. We recommend you dress for the Weymouth weather.

Cashless Business

For your convenience and security, please note that we are a cashless business. We accept all major credit and debit cards.

Service Charge

We do not add a service charge for groups of up to eight guests, which is left entirely to the customer’s discretion. A 10% service charge will be added for groups of eight guests or more.

Corkage fees

We take great pride in our selection of fine English and European wines. However, we understand that guests may occasionally wish to bring a bottle from their own collection. On such occasions a corkage fee of £30 per 75cl bottle of wine (£60 per 1.5L bottle), or £35 per 75cl bottle of sparkling wine or champagne (£70 per 1.5L bottle), will be applied to your bill. We kindly ask that you inform us in advance if you intend to bring your own wine. Please note that this service is reserved for labels not currently featured on our own wine list.

Children

We apologise but we cannot cater for younger children, accordingly we do not accept reservations for parties accompanied by children under 12 years of age.

Dress Code

We do not operate a dress code but ask that guests dress with consideration for other diners.

Dogs

We regret that, with the notable exception of assistance dogs, dogs are not otherwise allowed in the restaurant.

Parking

The restaurant has no guest parking, however there are several town centre public car parks nearby. The nearest car park to the restaurant is on East Street. Car parks can get busy, particularly during the day.

Please arrive on time for your reservation. We have limited space and may not be able to accommodate early arrivals in the restaurant.

Accessibility

Catch at the Old Fish Market is committed to making our restaurant accessible for guests with disabilities. We have installed a lift, providing guest and wheelchair access to the restaurant level. The restaurant area can accommodate wheelchair users and there is an accessible toilet facility on the same level. We welcome assistance dogs. If you require further information or special assistance, please contact us.
