Reviews in Penzance

Excellent food, but decor not so good. Staff friendly. Eaten there many times. Good value. Go for it. Rick G

I have just spent 3 wonderful nights at Hotel Penzance in Penzance. Couldn't fault it. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, the food in The Bay was out of this world, breakfasts to set you up for the day - all in all a very relaxing visit in lovely surroundings both in and out of the hotel. (oh and they have some great handmade cards in reception for all occasions and some lovely art hanging which is also forsale). Would definitely recommend for yourselves, your family, your friend or clients who may be down on business. Didn't want to leave and can't wait to return. Always good to pass on good recommendations. 21st February 2008

Last weekend my girlfriend and I stayed for 2 nights, we had a most amazing time from the time we walked through the door till leaving. All staff were attentive and professional, the Restaurant team again were at the top of there game, fitting us in when obviously busy but still giving us great service. The food which as a chef is top of my priorities, was extremely well cooked and presented, the local produce list at the start is inspired and showed just how much emphasise is put on the producers. Something I also am very interested in. Easter 2008 Mitch & Paraskevi

Fantastic - Best Tom Yum soup I've had in years! - very friendly, and reasonably priced - if you get the chance to visit - don't miss it!

I went here for a meeting after work and had a great meal. There was a very good choice of vegetarian food and I chose the butternut squash and chickpea curry. Unfortunately they did not have the squash so offered to make me a different veg curry from scratch. It was delicious and all the veg were fresh and cooked perfectly. There was a nice atmosphere and the staff were very helpful and friendly. I will definitely go again.

A notice outside this pub restaurant claims that all produce is locally sourced when possible. Seemingly it was not possible to source fresh beans, carrots or plaice in late September (2007). All were evidently from frozen.

The staff at this restaurant saved my life. I was filming in Cornwall a couple of weeks back, and we couldn't find anywhere to eat - no one told us Cornwall shuts down around 8 o'clock. The only place in Penzance still open was the Sukothai restaurant. As we parked up, I realised I'd lost my phone - a complete nightmare on a film shoot. Luckily 3 of the staff realised what was going on, and came out with torches. They stayed with me half an hour until one of them tracked it down. Inside, the food and the service was unbeatable - the staff were really lovely, and we talked about Thailand and Cornwall, and they invited us out dancing the next week. I wish we could have taken them up on the offer, but we had to leave the next day. I will definitely be eating there next time I visit Cornwall.

Fantastic, authentic thai food in excellent surroundings, 10/10

Kegen Teg is a surprising find in St Just, as it is a funky little cafe with good music and a good selection of fresh juices and smoothies. It's great to find somewhere that uses good quality local food. I had the nettle and leek soup which was lovely and will go back to check out the falafel platter. They also do a selection of gourmet burgers which sound pretty good too. Highly recommended

We went for Sunday lunch and had the seafood stew special - it was amazing value at £9.50 and seriously good. There were razor clams, mussels, clams, tiger prawns, gurnard. The aioli was home made with saffron and garlic. Even the chips were great ! All in a relaxing atmosphere with nice service / coffee - much improved !

The ambience of the place is exceptional. Whether your looking for al carte or simplefare, you'll find your thrill. Don't expect fast food, it's quality, as is the atmosphere. A very warm welcome if you stay in the surf lodge or the hotel. So great, i stayed longer than planned!!

The Meadery is a real family restaurant with good honest food and lovely staff. The mead wine certainly blows away the cobwebs. If you want a good filling meal in a relaxed atmosphere i strongly suggest a visit.

I would like to highly recommend THE BAKEHOUSE Restaurant in Penzance. The food, ambience and service are all superb and I think that this establishment deserves a wide recognition.

Excellent, delicious,well presented food in unpretentious surroundings. Hope to visit again.

We had our staff do here, we had a Xmas menu which was lovely especially the veggie option. The staff could have been cheerier! The tables were set out with posh Xmas extras which went down well. The only downside were that our party were split up onto opposite sides of the room instead of together. I would really like to go again for next Xmas.

WoW Great food in a pub at pub prices!

A perfect night out was had by all. Amazing food, especially the puddings!! Wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff made us feel very welcome. We will be back - would recommend to anyone.

We love this restaurant, we tried the special regular local Food Hero night where the menu features local suppliers produce. The food both vegetarian and carnivore was as usual excellent from start to finish. I especially enjoyed a confit of rabbit, served with beautiful leaves and an amazing dressing. The staff were professional and efficient, a rarity in Cornwall. Try it!
