Big Mussel

• Yummy Mussels

  Great Mussels, but don't expect plush restaurant. Think more Ikea and you will have it right. Lack of comfort more than made up for by the gorgeous Moules Frites, so typically french/belgian.

• Big Mussel, not such big ideas

  I wasn't impressed with the Big Mussel at all. I went there with my friend because we'd seen the lunchtime special offer advertised. The waitress was rude, there was no atmosphere in the restaurant (no music so we felt we had to talk quietly as it was deadly quiet!) and the staff were all chatting. Even though there were no customers, our table wasn't clean - it was sticky, and had obviously been wiped with a cloth that smelled.The food was good, but wasn't as cheap as I though the special offer made out.The good thing about Big Mussel is the selection of beers.The decor isn't very nice and a bit 80s.I would be willing to try again on a busy Saturday night though as the mussels were tasty.

• Mmmm mussels

  If you love seafood then this place is really for you, decent price and a nice atmosphere, Belgian beer is also tasty. The big pot of mussels with chips and bread is probably the most popular dish on the menu and I can see, why its filling cheap and very tasty, can be a bit messy but all adds to the fun of the place, I could eat here again and again, the crab cakes were fantastic also. They also do early bird offer that is very reasonable if you are looking for extra cheap food, try this place and you wont be disappointed I promise. If you don’t like seafood though they do other dishes but must admit ive never tried them.
