Royal Standard

Reviewed By mncrbest

Locals grouped around the bar all willing to have a chat to a total stranger which was a great start.Very much home cooked food from the specials board which we opted for local faggots,creamy mash and pea puree (alright,mushy peas of a sort) and the other dish being a lush fish pie. Simple straightforward but very tasty and reasonably priced.For a Friday night and lashing with rain the pub filled up quite nicely with chatty locals and their dogs.Loved the unspoiled un tarted up atmosphere and the pub dogs padding around on the basis that they owned the place. Everything that a Cornish village local should be and long may it continue. Oh and by the by,the pub is in Gerrans,not Portscatho. Bit like saying Newport is in England !

Our trips to Cornwall are not complete without our traditional Cafe Mylor visits. We have had breakfast, lunch and cream teas (not at once!) and can't recommend it more highly. Relaxed atmosphere and according to our daughter the best nachos in Cornwall!!! Thanks as ever see you soon....Claire thank you so much for taking the time to post your review - We are clearly delighted you enjoy visits and we commend your daughter for her exceptional taste too!! We hope to be able to see you again soon.RegardsPeter Stephens

The Watch House

Reviewed By mattdA3054HL

Fish extravaganza! I recommend the excellent fish spaghetti served in a lovely atmosphere (apart from the rude table behind who did not approve that we had our adorable puppy in tow) and excellent, friendly staff! Dog friendly and very welcoming. Would I go back, yes, and I’d probably order the fish spaghetti again.

Hotel Tresanton Restaurant

The dining room has a calm and cool Mediterranean atmosphere with a mosaic floor and tongue and groove walls. It has a terrace on two sides, where lunch, drinks and candlelit dinners are served in the summer, and whenever the temperate climate allows.

Visited the T for their weekend BBQ. 3pm sitting, every table booked, anticipation building!The buffet of salads and starters was fresh and delicious. Smoked salmon and capers, chilled shell-on king prawns, oysters on the half shell, fresh breads, 5 or 6 salads, fresh coleslaw, fresh celeriac remoulade and numerous sauces and dressings. The BBQ offering was similarly impressive. Tasty bangers, lamb chops, the finest-cut minute steaks I’ve ever seen cooked to your preference over the coals, corn cobs... delicious.Choice of three tasty mini desserts to finish.All of the above as many times as you like. Dear TJF1976Thank you for taking the time to review the hotel after your Summer BBQ with us. We are delighted that you enjoyed your afternoon, the BBQ's are a wonderful way to spend a lazy summer afternoon with friends and/or family, grazing merrily on the freshly prepared salads, seafood and hot items from the grill with a nice bottle of wine or a Tresanton cocktail to quaff! We will hope to see you again in the future! With best regards, Karen and the team.

Miss V's Cornish Cream Tea

Reviewed By thruppennyl

Drive down the well signed lane in the village to park (ample parking) near the church to find the loveliest tea hut with the most delicious food in a beautiful setting. There were plenty of people when we arrived but it didn't feel crowded. There are seats and tables inside and out. We had a ploughmans lunch with very generous slabs of bread and cheese (brie, cheddar and stilton), scrummy chutney and well dressed salad followed by coffee and cake. The Victoria sponge was light as air and delicious, the huge scone with jam and cream I'm assured was perfect.We didn't have time to do the stroll down to the water, but we promised ourselves to do it next time we visit. We will definitely be back.

Very cosy and authentic cream tea in a lovely setting on the farm. We sat outside in the sunshine overlooking rolling green fields. The scones were warm and lovely and it was served on lovely vintage crockery. Would definitely go back there on my next trip to Cornwall

Crab sandwiches in Cornwall are quite challenging. First you fail if there is any shell left in the meat. Secondly the bread and everything else has to be perfect. The crab sandwich I had was perfect. Added to that it was served in a lovely setting with a cool glass of beer.

Driftwood Restaurant

We could go on, but let's leave that to the Guide Books. Come and experience Driftwood's Michelin Starred Restaurant for yourself. There are no extravagant promises, only a guarantee of the freshest, finest food, served with stunning views across the sea.

Wow, what an amazing birthday treat!! Hubby and I enjoyed the 8 course tasting menu and each course was a delicious work of art. It was almost painful to cut into the beautiful spectacle on the plate in order to eat it, but each mouthful was divine.I would echo other reviewers in that the male maitre-d’ came across as supercilious which is a shame; and is certainly out of place in a modern restaurant. He should follow the example of the waitresses who all managed to be efficient yet friendly and helpful. Thankfully this was just one employee with a poor attitude so I would have no problem in recommending this restaurant.Thank you, I am so pleased you enjoyed your experience but disappointed with your comment on our Restaurant Manager with whom I will obviously discuss your views. I do hope we will see you again.

Cutty Sark Falmouth

The Cutty Sark has an informal pub style dining area on the upper level as well as more formal restaurant on the ground floor that is also available for private party hire.

Reviewed By neverfor

I booked a table by phone and was surprised to find the Pub restaurant almost empty. We were worried whether this was because the food was not up to much but were in for a surprise.The roast lamb with vegetables we ordered was lovely and rich, very tasty.Quite a different experience from other Sunday roasts in town recently, which haven't been up to scratch one way or another, from lukewarm or uncrispy roast potatoes or swimming in gravy.We found out later that the Pub had only just restarted offering Sunday lunches.Definitely worth another visit or two.
