Reviews in Cornwall

Limited menu which was made even more difficult when half of the dishes were not available. Staff worked hard but needed more support as service was slow. Plenty of other places to eat in Cornwall so give them a go first before eating here. Expensive for what was essentially burger and chips.

Lovely place l, great food and very friendly staff

Disappointing. No menus, just a blackboard with no prices and only 8 food options. Very small portions and quite dry. No side salad with burgers, very empty plates

It was difficult to book no messages returned. When managed to book I was told that couldn’t fit us in as fully booked and restaurant was very empty when we left. The Halloumi fries were cold. Service was slow and plates were not cleared before next course was brought out.

Unfortunately we did not have a good meal, we were initially put on a table right next to the bar where we couldn't hear ourselves think over the ice grinder, so asked to move to another table, they did move us but then we had to wait 15 mins to get 2 drinks, one of which was wrong, another 10 mins to order food, then about 45 mins before the food arrived. When it did, the medium to well done steak I ordered was bloody, and the prawns were tough and rubbery, but didnt want to send it back as we had already waited so long for it we were starving, not to mention they closed shortly, so we ate it, and it was average, but far to pricey for what we actually got! Despite all this, we realised that's they were busy so gave a second chance on the dessert, I wish I hadn't bothered! I ordered a strawberry eton mess, and what I got was vanilla ice cream with a squirt of strawberry sauce at the bottom and some whipped cream on top with a peice of meringue stuck on it, I was so shocked and appalled I left it and left the pub. The cocktails didnt taste of anything either, so really really disappointed to be honest. Over £90 for 2 meals, 2 drinks and 1 dessert. I wont be going back!

1st time visiting lemon twist, couldn’t get in, in May when we were last down. We had a lovely evening, food excellent, staff couldn’t do enough for us, really friendly. Will definitely visit again when down visiting family.

We enjoyed a very nice meal at the molesworth recently food was excellent and service from our initial waitress was very good and friendly. However her shift finished at 9pm and service after was poor. We are locals and eat on a regular basis at the pub and it’s upmarket boathouse. Menu in pub is more varied but boathouse is lovely.

Food was ok, though would be great to see some salad, risotto, healthy options … staff fantastic, couldn’t do enough to help.

The staff where over worked and worn out! I felt really sorry for them

Great service, lovely food

The restaurant itself is lovely but the menu and the food was extremely disappointing. The menu was very limited and uninspiring with very basic burgers, fish and chips etc. You got the impression they were trying to cut costs (cheap ingredients etc) with the food and had run out of most of the desserts but 7pm. Given the cost of the chalets at Retallack I’d hoped for much better.

First meal out with visiting family for ages and, as usual at Lemon Twist, we weren't disappointed. Lovely quiet table at the back, attentive and prompt service without fussing and great food and drink. Missing the Seafood Platter but fish tacos, mussels and garlic prawns made up for that. Great to be back. Hopefully will become a regular haunt again.

Stayed in Wadebridge for a four night holiday exploring Cornwall and booked the Molesworth Arms for dinner four months earlier for our last night. Disappointed to be led to a table in the corner but was sure the food and service would make up for it...how wrong we were. The feeling we had was we were shoved in a corner out of the way and forgotten about, took ages to get an order and when I asked how much the wine was per bottle as they only showed by the glass on the menu, returned with a seemingly made up figure. Main courses were pub fayre at best but would like to see a dessert menu and maybe order more drinks...no chance as nobody arrived to offer us anything after waiting over half an hour decided we'd just ask for the bill, had to literally shout out from our corner to get it! When I told the waitress we were disapponted she said they were very busy and they only have their own area to serve!!! Pretty poor, told them would not be returning to this place if we ever find ourselves in Wadebridge again.

Dreadful, had to walk out as completely ignored, the 3 staff we did see didn’t seem to have a clue what they were doing. How to treat customers etc etc on all occasions we had to use lookout restaurant it was hard work, no manager in sight!!

Excellent service from Kieran and the other staff. Food was lovely. Sat outside in the sun, such a lovely place.

The restaurant is very stylish in design and interior but the food was disappointing. It’s a shame as we wouldn’t revisit.

Went for an evening meal at The Boatyard and stayed overnight at the pub while over visiting family in Bodmin. Massive improvement in the look and feel of the place now it has been taken over an redecorated. We had the sharing platter for two and both my wife and I thought it was amazing food and great value for money. Very impressed. The service was ok but in places was a little unprofessional, mainly due to lack of age/ experience with the waiting on/ bar staff. Would definitely recommend this restaurant, pub and the B&B to anyone visiting Wadebridge or North Cornwall.

Mediocre. Service was slow, took a long time for drinks to arrive, main course wasn’t too bad, but then took a while for additional sauces to arrive. Had to ask for another drink and dessert menu, both of which then took a while to arrive again, also had to ask for the bill. Staff were pleasant and friendly enough, but seemed chaotic and disorganised, seemed to be a lot of wandering around aimlessly and chatting at the bar by the young ladies working. I had hoped for a bit more character given the history of the pub, but it was more of a generic pub type interior. Scruffy appearance of waiting staff didn’t help, I know it’s not a top class restaurant, but lots of scruffy faded jeans, plastic fashion belts, chunky trainers etc didn’t help the appearance. Drinks were fine, but expensive for location. Food (surf and turf/steak on a stone) was lovely and the main redeeming feature. Dessert was poor, eton mess sundae was mainly ice cream with a small squirt of strawberry sauce, and a small meringue on top. In all, ok for a pub meal, not worth pushing the boat out though and paying for dessert, drinks etc as well as rapidly ends up expensive for mediocre evening. Food quality needs improving for the price charged and some work on service standards and efficiency of staff.
