The fish and chips here are generous. The batter on the cod is properly crispy and light. The real star is the chips cooked in beef dripping &ndash; they have a savoury depth you don&#39;t get with oil. A solid portion for the price.

Staff are really kind here. They helped my family member with extra care, which was appreciated. Food was top-notch too. Quick and efficient service, perfect for a lunch break.

This place is so welcoming to dogs, which is a huge plus for me and my friends. We had a lovely pint of Cornish Ale and enjoyed the relaxed mix of locals and visitors. Perfect for a casual catch-up.

Been coming here for years, and the milkshakes are consistently top-notch. It&#39;s a tiny place, always packed, but they never miss a beat. Staff are always polite, even when it&#39;s crazy busy. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Nice casual spot with a beach cafe vibe. Dog-friendly, which is a plus. They had a DJ and electric darts on the night we went, good for a relaxed evening out.

Popped in after seeing the reviews. The place was buzzing, which I actually liked. Food was solid, service was quick. Just a good, straightforward meal.

Decent coffee, not too pricey. Grabbed a breakfast roll after parking at the wharf. The portion was just right for the price, actually. Good spot for a quick bite.

Been coming here for years. The owners are the real deal, always have a minute for a chat. Makes it feel like a proper local spot, not just another restaurant. That personal touch keeps me coming back.

Loved how friendly the staff were! The chef came over to chat and suggest what to order, which was a really nice touch. It made our little catch-up feel extra special. 😊

The homemade tartar sauce and coleslaw are a nice touch. You can tell they put thought into the little things.

Just a very pleasant low key place in a fabulous location with a great small plates offering and stupendously well cooked food.  The small plates are not so small so be vcareful not to over order.  Very friendly waitress.

The sausage roll was the star, still warm from the oven. Coffee&#39;s solid, and the cakes are fresh. Appreciate the no-plastic approach, feels good. A reliable spot for a quick, tasty bite.

Been coming here for years, and they always remember the little things. Last time it was my birthday, and they brought out a cake and a glass of prosecco without me even mentioning it. That&#39;s the kind of place this is. The naan is still the best around.

Great spot for a quick pint. Love the St Austell selection. Staff were friendly, helped me pick a beer fast. Grabbed a couple of souvenirs too. Perfect for a quick stop.

Perfect spot for a quick, healthy lunch. The gluten-free vegan options are great, and the sunny courtyard is a nice touch.

Good choice of beers and ciders on tap. The Tribute ale was a solid pint, really enjoyed it. A bit pricey for what it is, but the quality is there.

Loved the upstairs area in this cute cafe. It&#39;s got a cosy, tucked-away feel. Had the vanilla and pumpkin cake with a gingerbread latte &ndash; really nice. Prices are decent.

Great spot for a quick bite. Tables are right on the water, which is cool. Sat there with a beer watching the boats. A bit pricey for what it is, but the view makes up for it. Solid for a relaxed afternoon.

Came here with a few mates for a casual catch-up. The vibe is so cosy, exactly what you want for a long chat. We ended up staying for hours just talking, felt like we were in someone&#39;s living room. The staff were lovely and didn&#39;t rush us at all, which was perfect.

The gluten-free scones here are a solid choice. They&#39;re on par with the regular ones, which is rare. Good selection of vegan cakes too. Makes it easy when you have dietary restrictions.

Lovely spot for a drink. The terrace view at sunset is really quite nice. Cocktails were decent, a bit pricey perhaps, but it&#39;s a fine place to unwind.

The sole was so fresh, you could taste the sea! 🐟 It&#39;s the kind of place where you can tell they get their fish that morning. Perfect for a relaxed catch-up with friends.

Came with a group, the sausages were spot on. Pies had a nice flaky crust. Staff were friendly, made us feel welcome. Good spot for a relaxed meal.

Upgraded to the surf and turf from the mixed grill. Massive portion, honestly couldn&#39;t finish it all. The steak was spot on, and the prawns were juicy. Flavour was really good. Just a solid, satisfying meal.

Finally got round to trying this place. The food was spot on, really tasty. The whole vibe was just so friendly and relaxed, which was lovely.

The Fisherman&#39;s Platter was lovely. The seafood tasted fresh, and the flavours were just right.

Been coming here for years, and the oysters are always spot on. Fresh, chilled just right. That consistency keeps me coming back.

The flat white is a proper two-shot, robust and smooth. They have oat milk which worked nicely. Owner&rsquo;s a friendly chap. Chess club on Saturdays gives it a nice local vibe. A solid spot for a coffee and a quiet read.

A lovely little spot. I popped in for a coffee and ended up staying for lunch &ndash; their daily quiche was just right, still warm from the oven. The staff remembered my order from last time, which was a nice touch.

Edie&#39;s got me eating again after a rough patch. That confit chicken tortellini was spot on, rich but not heavy. The calves liver was cooked just right, and the Seville orange cheesecake to finish... lovely. Felt like a proper meal for the first time in ages.
