Exclusive Supper-Club Party with Rick Stein

Celebrating 50 Years of Rick Stein Restaurants
This year marks a momentous milestone for Rick Stein Restaurants: an impressive 50 years since Rick Stein CBE and Jill Stein OBE opened The Seafood Restaurant, in Padstow.
To celebrate the golden anniversary, the Stein’s are hosting a sensational Supper-Club event at the iconic Seafood Restaurant, taking guests on a nostalgic journey through the decades on Friday 28th February from 7pm until midnight.
Rick will be DJ’ing (yes you heard us right!) and the only way to get your hands on a ticket is via a ballot – open now and closing on 10th February.

The Seafood Restaurant, 1975
Rick & Jill purchased the property in 1974 as a nightclub, with Rick starting out as a DJ spinning the decks, before he turned his hand to the stove and built the Stein’s legacy. The nightclub didn’t last very long, owing to some problems with keeping law and order with a clientele of burly fishermen, and The Seafood Restaurant opened its doors in 1975!

So, in homage to its roots – The Seafood Restaurant, which won an AA Food Service Award for outstanding hospitality in 2024 – is throwing it back to where it all began.
Guests will enjoy a welcome glass of Champagne, followed by canapés and a generous five-course seafood feast by Rick and Jack Stein, including legendary dishes such as hand-dived scallops, lobster risotto and hot chocolate fondant, plus a celebratory cocktail.

Each course can be paired with a wine recommendation from Charlie Stein, which can be purchased on the night. End the evening with a throwback boogie with Rick spinning dancefloor fillers alongside his son, Ed.

“It’s amazing that The Seafood Restaurant has been open for 50 years – we’re excited for lots of celebrations throughout 2025. Including me, returning to my roots as a DJ, back on the decks for one night only!”

Jill Stein OBE, Founder & Co-Owner of Rick Stein Group, comments:
“Little did Rick and I imagine when we opened our doors in 1975 that we would still be here 50 years later, celebrating half a century of the iconic Seafood Restaurant. We hope to welcome you to join us in celebrating our Golden Year.”
