Spanning five generations, the business has weathered monumental events, including three royal coronations, two world wars, a moon landing, the turn of the millennium, the rise and fall of the European Union, and even a global pandemic. Guided by the legacy of Kevin and Charlotte Mitchell (née Knight), the fourth generation, alongside their son George (fifth generation) and a dedicated team, Knight’s Fish Restaurant continues to thrive as a beloved family-run establishment.
