About Dungeness Snack Shack
Dungeness Snack Shack is a seafood restaurant in Romney Marsh, on Dungeness Fish Hut, where the food is cooked on the beach and served in paper containers. The menu centres on lobster buns and scallop buns, which put the shellfish in a bun instead of on a plate. Flatbreads come with lobster, with fish, or with scallop and chilli jam. Fried potatoes are a regular order alongside, and scallops and fish are also served with potatoes. The seafood is locally caught.

“We visited today for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. We had the scallop flatbread with chilli jam and fried potatoes. Food was served promptly (and of a high standard), the staff were really polite and welcoming. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area 😊”

“I loved this place in the past so we spent up large, £100 for 3 people: 2x lobster buns, 6x oysters, 2x potatoes, 2x scallop buns, 3x soft drinks. Poatoes were great as usual but this time both the scallop and the lobster buns were fairly basic with too much bread and taste didn’t feel very integrated. There are flatbread options which are probably a better choice. (Also it’s often incredibly windy and you need to be careful to pick up some stones from the ground the anchor your food. Your food will blow away as the paper containers slowly empty otherwise.)”

“Love it, just love it! Proper seafood, caught local and cooked on the beach. We had a "fish flatbread", "fish and potatoes" and scallops. Well seasoned flour-dusted fish fillets served with homemade tartar and fantastic potatoes, sautéed, …”
