Reviews in Cornwall

Booked at short notice for a table of 11, they were very helpful and organised it so we could eat. The atmosphere was very laid back and relaxed but not at the expense of quality. The Staff were superb, patient, cheery and efficient. We had a great Sunday lunch and everyone commented about how good everything was. Gurnard we salute you!

The Gurnard's Head is a splendid hotel with typically Cornish character. Beers are good and well priced. Staff are professionally friendly. Food is very good and well presented but lacks balance. My steak came with a gratin but no vegetables beyond the potato that was within it. The menu didn't offer a vegetable selection, although it did refer to a portion of "leaves". My partners steak had a generous portion of fat. The steaks were cooked perfectly to taste but steak knives, or sharper table knives would have made cutting easier. Two starters and two mains came to £42.50 without the cost of drink. Vegetables would, in my view, make what is a very good dinner excellent. Oh...and please trim the steaks !

We had our small wedding lunch here in September, champagne & canapes on the decking, lunch inside with lots of seafood, and a lovely wedding cake which they supplied. The sun shone and we paddled on the beach; highly recommended; we also had dinner earlier in the week also superb

Very friendly inn, landlords Steve & Chris made you feel very welcome. Home cooked food was excellent and very reasonably priced, with friendly service. Will definitely go back.

they talk about a complete refurbishment and importing chef's from london etc. Well they're right. Brilliant meal, massive lobster from the huge tank, venison perfect....beautiful staff, loved it and will return

I was in the salt bar last Friday night, at last there is a place to go to in hayle where you dont have to be a local to fit in. As soon as you walk in there is a relaxing atmosphere and you are made to feel so welcome!!! Great food +drinks At last a modern touch to Hayle cheers guys

What a lovely place to stay and eat and what a great menu some thing for all fantastic!!!

Went a week or so ago and really enjoyed our night. great cocktails and vast menu for the restaurant. Music a bit loud but none the less a cracking atmosphere and as Arnie once said...I'll be back. great stuff One Eyed cat- odd name but quirky

I love it~ its fantastic definitely recommend it to anyone!

We will definitely be going back to the Fistral Blu Restaurant next time we are in Newquay, the scallops were so delicious with that unusual 'kwaibi' Japanese mustard! The lamb shank was so tender & beautifully presented. We thoroughly recommend McGuigan Brothers Black Label, a v. smooth red wine. The ambience & service were just perfect!

Delicious Pizza with unusual toppings. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Nicely designed but not sure about the red material on the chairs doesn't quite go with the rest.

On my visit to Carbonara, I found the service to be friendly, the atmosphere welcoming and the menu varied enough to suit most tastes. All food is cooked fresh, and the waiting staff do everything possible to ensure that you enjoy your meal. The restaurant itself is quite small, however, clever placing of tables means that you have your own space in which to enjoy your meal and do not feel at all cramped. As well as the fantastic starter and main menu, there is also a delightful desert menu for those who still have room for it! Over all I would highly recommend this quaint little restaurant to anyone in the area who would like to have a pleasant meal in a friendly but not intrusive atmosphere, at a price reflected in the food and service.

I have eaten at Chantek on many occasions, mainly at lunchtime. I would agree that the evening prices are more expensive but I have never had any complaints about the size of portions. The extra menu available at lunch is a real bargain. You can have a starter and a main course for a set price or a main course with a drink. The main courses include either noodles or rice. You get a generous portion of food for both courses. Food choices are large and the flavours are authentic. I am lucky enough to live locally so I have even had excellent take aways from Chantek.

Had heard about the new chef owner and wanted to try this place. We went this sunday for lunch. The food was excellent. We both had the Jerusalem Artichoke soup with truffle oil and I had roast sirloin with veg my partner had a risotto. We enjoyed it very much and shall probably return.

I have only used this for its excellent pizza, but when eating in the other night I chose to order the steak and fries, superb quality beef thin frites perfectly cooked and incredible value. I also had the chilli stir fried squid which melted in the mouth. The bill for three inc booze was around £40. Great value. I totally recommend this place.

Always a pleasure to visit this excellently situated establishment, the views of the harbour are superb. Eric and Tracey make sure every one is looked after and leave happy. The staff are pleasant, polite and efficient. Menu has much to choose from and food presented nicely. Return visits are a must, over and over again, one feels so comfortable.

We have never been disappointed here.

When many other quality restaurants in St Ives have established themselves and are now letting their standards slip, The Cornish Deli reminds us how it should be done. The quality of food is excellent and the wine is fantastic. The staff are experienced and efficient. There is an enthusaism for food -and customers- that is undeniable. I can't praise it highly enough either for lunch or a sensibly priced dinner of great quality.
