Reviews in Penzance

Wow a hidden restaurant in a residential area with superb view across Mounts Bay. We booked a table a couple of weeks ago on a busy Saturday night. The food was excellent with vibrant colours and flavours. The Knowledgeable staff recommended the perfect wine to compliment the meal. It's well worth the visit, I for one will definitely be going back.

Wonderful food, excellent service. A lovely intimate cafe, I'll certainly be back.

This is a great place for dinner. Good food and a wonderful view.

Nice place, a little lacking given the £80 price tag for a dinner for 2 with a bottle of wine and a shared desert. Would probably head elsewhere if I were to spend that dough again as at the price I reckon there is probably better. We did enjoy our evening here and the food was good to very good. Service was with a smile though a bit lacking in knowledge and very informal, which suited us fine. they just seemed to forget to do all the right things at the right times, and this was on a Monday night in October.

Excellent and dedicated Health Food Shop and vegetarian Cafe. Great salads, inexpensive meals.

Brilliant all around.

We had heard about this place so we drove down from Devon, parking can be a problem in the town but the building was great, it was a bit windy so we ate inside. It was a very busy lunchtime and the staff were flat out and a little overstretched, it may be teething trouble but they didnt seem to be very confident and fluid. Anyway the food options and the drinks were excellent and the interior smart. We had a decent brunch and will probably return when they have settled in.

Friends brought us here while we were on holiday. The setting is spectacular. The structure was made entirely of wood which had a fabulous smell. The food was very good and if the service was a wee bit haywire it was just due to teething problems as they had just opened. Plenty of staff though. It will be on my places to visit list when I return to Cornwall.

Our annual visits to Cornwall - usually off-season are not complete without a stay and/or a meal at the Cornish Range. The accommodation is stylish, luxurious, positively oozing good taste and comfort. Dinner is always a treat to be savoured. The service attentive. The quality and freshness of the food continues the standard begun in Richard's time and and the menus are tantalising. I suppose it was inevitable that prices had to go up (dammit!) once the word had got about. Anyway I would still choose the Cornish Range over a 5 star hotel - and thankfully there are none as yet in Mousehole - are they?

wahho for the sandbar is all i can say!!!

Although it was a cold wet night outside, we found the CR to be warm and welcoming. The interior decoration is excellent and tables are well-spaced. The fish (surely the main reason for going) is unbelievably good but availability is obviously dictated by the catch (sorry to other patrons; we blitzed the Scallops in Cocconut Chilli sauce). One of us had beef which he said was also very good. Service was relaxed but very professional (efficient, without being obsequious) and matches anything you could hope to find in other top-class restaurants. Although I've rated the cost as 'Pricey', this is by local standards. By London standards, I'd probably say that it was the top end of 'Average'. Luckily, we have family in the area so we have the excuse to return to the CR whenever we're visiting them!

This has got to be our favorite Chinese restaurant of all time ! We have visited on many occasions and each time the food has been excellent, and cooked to perfection (Try the Mongolian Lamb - its wonderful), excellent service, very reasonable prices. Forget Eastern Promise at Grampound, this place is far better.

We stayed in the adjoining B & B part of The Cornish Range and as a treat eat in the their restaurant for the first night. The food was terrific and of very good quality, however, we found the service terrible. We had to ask for everything twice and our main meals took well over an hour to arrive - they then said it was out fault as we did not order starters?? in the end we were almost the last to leave after arriving at 7.30pm for a main and a desert and a bottle of wine.

Browns is the place to head for if you are in or around Penzance. Delicious vegetarian food in nice surroundings. It is just a shame they are not open more often in the evenings.

I took two vegetarian friends out one Sunday evening for a treat, we sat in the conservatory and chose a decent bottle of rose bubbly to sip and were brought some canapes on the house. We sat at a a window table and soaked up the atmosphere, the veggies were very well catered for and thought the food was excellent, large servings and well presented. I chose the steak which cut like butter and came with 'hand made chips'. The desserts were beautiful and the wine list had a good choice of half bottles so everybody was happy. Well done the Bay!

The best Chinese/Cantonese restaurant i have ever been to and its in cornwall!!! Excellent menu and the food is amazing. My boyfriend and I went there after a friend recommended we check it out and we've been back again and again. The setting is really cosy, a little like a cavern, nice for a romantic meal. i cant stress enough the fact that you really need to pay this little gem of place a visit.

Fantastic! One of the best meals I've ever enjoyed at a price that was very reasonable. Maybe one criticism would be that some of the portions are on the generous side, one thing for certain is that we didn't raid the fridge at home! We will definately go there again.

WOW !! What a superb meal, what a find !! Well worth the effort of seeking out this hidden gem off Chyandour Cliff Penzance. Views to rivel the best anywhere and although not cheap [my 3 course dinner with wine came to £34.00] I would say extememly good value. Marvelous Laksa [shrimp & noodle soup to the uninitiated] followed by monkfish tail baked in Pancetta with ratatouille & basil dressing. Veggies cooked just right & followed by brown bread & honey ice-cream.Mmmmm....heaven. No freezer to fryer or sous vide stuff here, just honest fresh food, prepared to order by experts who know what they're doing. Excellent wine & great service. You could do very much worse than to eat here... the locals do so that must tell you something!
