On the 15th June 2020 we'd raised £6,300 with 57 supporters in 28 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Getting extra money will enable Murrays to further expand our new services and safeguard our employees jobs
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for millions of British small businesses, which is going to make it very challenging for businesses to survive. Together we can help them.
Crowdfunder are offering up their platform to allow all UK small businesses to pre-sell their meals, events, hotel bookings etc. for cash now on a promise to redeem these at a later date.
Our Target of £4000.00
If we reach our Target we will be eligible for a 50% grant which will help us adjust to whatever new regulations regarding safety and distancing in restaurants are required. It will also help us to launch a new delivery service to boats and houses in Cowes, and enable us to retain long-standing staff and get the restaurant going from day one.
Murrays Seafood Restaurant Pay-it-forward Gift Vouchers
For the past 30 years Murrays has been serving both the local community and the Yachting and Boating fraternity with excellent locally sourced fish and shellfish meals, all of which are prepared and served freshly by our family and staff
By buying locally from fishermen and farmers we help to keep our Island community prosperous and this allows us to offer the very best to our customers who visit from the Island and all along the Solent area.
All vouchers can be used on meals taken in the Restaurant when we are allowed to reopen and on a new service for meals and seafood platters delivered to boats in the Cowes marinas, they will be valid for 12 months until July 2021 allowing plenty of time to use them. We are adding a 10% bonus to all vouchers and a 25% reduction on our Limited Edition six person platter
Relaunch
Different Times New Opportunities and New Services
.With your help in achieving our target it will provide us with the initial boost to keep staff and restock with fresh local food, also to enable us to start planning, buying equipment and printing for our new marina and home delivery service. This will help us to restart quickly and help offset the expected reduced number of diners it is likely we will be allowed in the near future.
We have as a family run our Restaurant for the past three decades serving the local and boating public and we aim to carry on

I have been a customer at Murray’s for over twenty years. I keep returning as the food is fabulous, the staff friendly and the service excellent. You will not get better fish anywhere, although having said that, for a fish restaurant, they also cook a perfect steak. Really missing Murray’s during lockdown and we will be there as soon as you are open.

With my family I have been visiting Murrays restaurant in Cowes High Street for probably 25 years, it is still run by the same family as it was all those years ago.
If you like sea food then this is the place for you. Lovely food, friendly atmosphere and competitive pricing mean this is always our first stop when visiting Cowes and we would recommend it highly
