Sea View Gourock

You're sitting in Gourock with the water spreading out in front of you—this is the bit of the coast that actually feels like somewhere, not just a commute from Glasgow. Sea View does the kind of food that makes sense here: fish landed nearby, cooked simply, served without any of that faffing about. It's the place locals bring visiting mates to show them what eating by the water should be, where you can get a proper feed without dropping serious money or dealing with unnecessary fuss.
