Reviews in Cornwall

Cannot comment on the food as we left 45 minutes after our table reservation. Only 2 waiting staff running the entire busy half term restaurant and bar, waited 30 mins to be greeted to be sat down at our prebooked table (only because we grabbed one of the harassed staff, otherwise I imagine we would still be waiting). Then waited another 10 mins for drinks and to be given a cut down version of the menu which didn’t have one of the 3 options because they are short staffed. Realising we were already about 4th in line of other big tables and by now nearly an hour after booked table we gave up and left. Felt very sorry for the 2 staff who had turned up and were running around like headless chickens and were apologetic but really not good enough for a 5 star resort in middle of May half term. Had similar slow service earlier in the week to get a drink. Our first meal out as a couple in 9 months, so disappointing. Management really need to sort it out and support their waiting staff who no doubt copped it, not a manger in site.

Waited 20 mins to be seated for a reserved table, waited an hour and a half for starters. Short staffed and senior management no where to be seen. Really felt for the 3 staff who were running around trying their best, they should never have been put in that situation. Main meals came out and the chicken was dry so we didn’t eat in the end with two hungry kids in tow. Supposedly 5 star but more akin to fawlty towers, quite simply one of the worst meals I’ve had ( or not had) in the uk

So good to be back at Lemon Twist, enjoying their delicious food, served by their happy, attentive team. 4 of us shared a variety of tapas, while my sister enjoyed several (of the same) cocktails!! We can highly recommend all the food, but I always order the Fish Tacos. We enjoyed it so much, I’ve just booked to return on 3 separate occasions with other friends and family, when we’re back in Falmouth over the next couple of months.

Amazing food!! The Sunday roast was great!!

Excellent pub with great food, staff and atmosphere.

Excellent service especially Kieron who was very attentive and helpful. Food was very tasty and well presented. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Not enough staff on duty which meant a 2 hour wait. Food was tasty but by that point we’d lost the will to live.

Not enough staff on duty....had a long wait Food nice and good value for money Too many dogs in restaurant .

Excellent food, great drinks and in a lovely atmosphere. So nice to be able to go back to a restaurant!

One of our first meals out with friends this year and we felt safe, were well looked after and enjoyed our early supper. I had the shrimp pasta, one person had fish and chips and there were two burgers. I especially enjoyed the treat of a cocktail as it was Happy Hour and 2 for 1. Would definitely go again. Thanks.

From booking our table to paying our bill we had such a lovely evening, all the staff were more than accommodating an the food was sensational.

Food was lovely and staff very friendly but waited over an hour to be served sandwiches & jacket potatoes in a quiet restaurant.

Absolutely fantastic meal Everything perfect Catering for coeliacs really well.

Food very good, service good.

A friend and I had a very nice lunch, with alcohol-free beer (we were both driving). It was a chilly, grey, breezy day, so it was great to be sitting under cover, out of the wind, and with a heater to keep us warm. Great, friendly service (as always!). Faultless!

Everything tasted great, place was spotless and friendly as always. Food could have been hotter is only moan I have. We have been coming here for many a year now whilst on holiday and will keep coming now we are residents.

Service & Food were exceptional & we love this pub and are loyal customers. However, when I booked I asked for a table near heaters & was told that this was ok & tables were sheltered & that this was fine. Upon arrival, our table was in the thoroughfare (table 30) & wind was travelling right through the courtyard up & down & we had no heaters, we were not sheltered and the nearest heater was 7 feet away (despite many others being under heaters & in t-shirts) & we were just too cold. The food was awesome & the service was attentive & great, however, we got too cold to stay. We will be back when warmer, as we know how good this pub is, but this is our review of yesterday’s stay. We realise the current circumstances, but we would rather have been told you were full than been out somewhere so cold/exposed.
