"Was really hungry by the time I hiked into Redruth that hot August afternoon. Walking down the main street, I saw few obvious places to eat, so the Regal came as a welcome sight at the foot of the hill and I dived in. From outside, where a few locals sat drinking at pavement tables in the sun, it appears to be a restaurant combined with a cinema, which is unusual. Inside, COVID measures were in place. I obeyed the sign saying wait to be seated, but the guys behind the counter waved me to sit where I liked. Joint wasn't too busy. I found a two-seat table looking out at the street and was soon served a pint of Amstel by a friendly and careful but hesitant young man--perhaps still learning the ropes? (I had two drinks overall, but he left one off the bill, which I had to remind him of, bless him. The serving protocol of staff here is to bring food and drinks on a tray which you then remove yourself. I treated myself to an excellent feast. Main course was New York Chicken, with tasty bacon; decent, medium-chunk, square-cut chips; a rich, pink-coloured slaw; and fresh red-lettuce salad. Very satisfying. Followed by cookie dough and ice cream. Lovely ice cream. Never had cookie dough before--bit sweet for me, but worth the experiment. Chicken dish was priced at about £11.00 and the dessert £5.00; but I had a great bargain thanks to the Eat Out to Help Out discount! I'd call the Regal more of a cafe bar than a restaurant. My sort of place: easygoing, unpretentious, relaxing, and serving good food in decent-sized portions."
