The Basement

The Basement is built within 'The Drang', a small shopping area on the Quay, and has fantastic views overlooking the Harbour. The Basement has a comfortable inside seating area and a superb newley refurbished alfresco seating area with Harbour Views. It i

We always try to call in here whilst visiting Padstow. It has undergone a makeover with permanent walls and roof replacing the temporary structure, and is now lovely and warm even on a cold day. We had soup/fish finger roll which were delicious. Great view over the harbour and friendly staff, but hate being referred to as “guys”.

The Mowhay Cafe

Reviewed By Nick T

A 10 minute walk from the main Polzeath beach the Mowhay cafe is a daytime cafe which becomes an excellent restaurant in the evening. The daytime food and drinks are fine, but the evening menu is something else. The starters are interesting with reasonable portions and the main courses are just great. My son and I both chose the fish curry, the flavour of which knocked spots of most Indian restaurants. Many places let standards slip when it comes to desserts, falling back on catering pack or ice cream. Mowhay desserts are made in the kitchen to order, and are a type and quality rarely seen. The service is capable and friendly, and the bill is reasonable given the quality of the meal. Our visits were a highlight of our week in Polzeath.

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.

St Enodoc Hotel Restaurant

A privately owned boutique hotel in an exquisite hideaway with sweeping views over the Camel Estuary, Rock. The beach is a stone’s throw from the Hotel as is the passenger ferry to Padstow. St Enodoc is a stylish and relaxing place for your stay in North

Pleasant staff and nice menu but nothing spectacular fior the price - the local pubs serve better food !Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on TripAdvisor. I am sorry you feel the menu is overpriced, we believe that our prices are fair for the high quality, locally sourced where possible ingredients that we use.

Paul Ainsworth at No. 6

Reviewed By Dr_Bill_11

The gold medal went to the comparatively modest starter: raw sea bass on a base of crunchy slaw with creamy kotsuobushi flavoured mayonnaise droplets. Fabulous fillet of beef, beautiful meat perfectly cooked served with charred (carrot cooked on embers) and borderlaise sauce. Pear tart for pudding got the bronze but still Olympic standard (should have had the chocolate cake!)Super Pinot noir by the glass and good choice of non alcoholic drinks. Friendly greeting, service and good send-off. Nicer ambience in the dining room than I remember from last time (though can’t pin down why).

Enjoyed several dishes, each were excellent, my favourite being the red mullet. So many layers of flavour and to think this is all achieved in such a tiny kitchen!

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.

Finally visited here during our holiday and can totally see what all the fuss is about. Busy, buzzing, cosy atmosphere and quite simply the most delicious breakfast I’ve ever had! My husband says it was his best too and he’s even older than me! And REALLY fussy! The hash browns were heavenly! And what a great price too! Spot on. Well done to Ben and all the staff!

The Dining Room

A small, family run restaurant in Rock, Cornwall

Reviewed By KTS s

Having visited this restaurant under a previous owner many years ago we were interested to return and see how things had changed. Loved the feel of the simple layout, quality feel to decor and calming artwork by local artist Allan Caswell. We were warmly welcomed by the hostess/owner who explained the table was ours for the evening ( we booked for 715) a real bonus if you want to take your time and amke more of the experience as so many other restaurants locally in Rock/Padstow limit tables to a 2 hour slot and are quick to move you on through. An extensive winelist is available and was great that glasses were topped up slowly just at the right time. A small and delicious menu offered - 4 starters, 4 mains and fresh fish, a meat dish and vegetarian offered at each stage. We opted for Partridge and Gin soaked salmon dishes to start and Halibut main courses. Chefs appetisers of a beetroot/horseradish meringue and ham/potato mini cake was an exquisite to start. Fresh baked bread offered and GF options available. The food was perfectly cooked, beautifully presented and explained enthusiastically by the team. If you have room for dessert - the British cheeseboard is highly recommended. We are looking forward to returning next spring with friends.

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.
