the menu was limited but everyone enjoyed their meals. the roast beef was fantastic with a modern Sunday lunch feel. The mackerel was the best i have ever tasted. The apple crumble was to die for. The atmosphere was relaxed and informal with large wooden tables and comfy chairs. The staff were friendly and attentive. All excellent but there was no alternative for children especially if you have fussy little ones.

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 !

it's just been taken over and it looks like the new people know what they're doing. amazing location, worth the trip for the home-smoked mackerel alone. loved the furniture, esp. the hammocks!

An excellent experience. Food, drink and service fantastic. Very cosy bar with views across the moor. Hoping to stay there soon!
