10. Quarryman

Found the Quarryman almost by accident, if I had missed the sign up on the main road we would not have happened upon this great pub and restaurant. We arrived mid Sunday evening and the place was packed but the staff assured us that they would find a table for us if we were prepared to wait a while. The bar was a great incentive to wait patiently, the range of local cask ale is superb and a small taster before deciding was no problem. The table was quickly found and we settled down with the menus, the variety of choice was excellent and we settled for Mackerel Pate starters with a Sunday special Roast Chicken as the main course. The pate was really good, fresh and delicious, the main course that followed was equally delicious and so plentiful, besides besides the roast potatoes and sausage meat stuffing on the plate with the huge portion of roast chicken there were two separate side dishes of vegetables, cauliflower cheese, swede, cabbage and carrots, all with a really good gravy. The meal was absolutely superb and the staff were so attentive, we shall definitely be adding the Quarryman to our must visit when in the area notes. It is really important to ring and reserve in advance, we were very fortunate to be able to get a table as they were so busy, not just an occasional situation but very normal for this very well patronised local establishment.

We came here on the 20th October for our wedding anniversary meal. After reading the reviews I thought 2 bad reviews, the rest brilliant - and it wasn't so big inside so we were expecting a more personal approach. This is not what we got. We ordered drinks and our meal at 7.02. The bar man said he would bring my cocktail over ASAP. 30 mins later still no cocktail!! My husband had finished half his drink! The barman looked busy so we assumed he was making the cocktail, no he went away from the bar and wiped tables!! We then said "excuse me, we are still waiting for a cocktail" he replied yes I know!!! He then came over with the cocktail which was mostly ice! The food - whilst that was quicker than the drinks HA - the burger I ordered was very rare. Almost still mooing! Then we noticed I was missing my onion rings - I didn't dare mention this as I thought I'd have a snappy reply. £41 - for a upscale Wetherspoons. We did enjoy the décor.

Stayed for a few days. Our room (Ketch) was lovely. Well appointed, tastefully decorated and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and of great quality and the staff could not have been more friendly. Located right in the heart of Padstow, itâs a delightful place we would stay at again when we visit this area

Arrived and stood waiting to be seated, 3 barmaids/waitresses standing chatting. Eventually one came over and we asked if it was ok to just have drinks and she said sure just take a seat and we will come and take your order. The room wasn't even a third full and we took a seat and after ten minutes we got up and left as the three ladies were still chatting and laughing at the bar. We remember it as the Upper Deck and had some lovely memories of those times. This however was not one of them

Booked a table here for my husbandâs birthday. They knew we were vegetarian so catered for us really well. Food was top quality and tasted delicious. Polite and friendly staff. Fantastic views from the table. Parking was easy..near entrance. A lot of thought went into finer details such as fresh roses on table, quality napkins all the simple things that make a difference. We will definitely return..soon! Highly recommended. Fine dining but not overpriced. Value for money.

We stayed at a B&B in Padstow recently and were recommended to eat here by our landlady. Always ready to take local advice we opted for the fish pie which was wonderful - big chunks of fish and really tasty. Very helpful staff and a very pleasant atmosphere - highly recommended.

We stayed nearby for 9 days so visited several times. The service is impeccable from all staff. Special thanks to Dennis. Food is of very high quality including the Sunday Lunch. Fish and chips is amazing. My only criticism would be the menu is somewhat limited but that is often, as here, a sign of high quality.
