"My friend and I spent the afternoon in St Agnes and had a reservation for 7 o'clock at the Fitty Pysk. However, we started to feel hungry well before then so asked if we could bring our booking forward to 6 o'clock. Not a problem, which made us very happy. The restaurant is approached by some fairly steep stairs but once at the top you realise that this provides a brilliant view of the bay. Inside, we were given uninterrupted views of a beautiful evening sunset from our table. It was difficult to choose from the tempting menu but eventually we both opted for the rum and ginger slow roasted pork belly, with seasonal vegetables. It's no exaggeration to say that it was divine, crispy crackling, melting fat and succulent meat. A very well-presented dish, very tasty; my only criticism would be that the vegetables were a little al dente for my personal taste but the pork was definitely the star of the show. Amazingly, we both decided on a pudding- this was reckless abandon as we were quite full and both on diets! Delicious frangipane tart for me and a chocolate pud for my friend. It was a bridge too far but had to be done, washed down with a half pint of delicious still cider brewed locally. The whole experience, the setting, ambience, service and food was a lovely end to my holiday and I hope to revisit next time I'm in Cornwall visiting my friend and seriously investigating the pub side of the Driftwood Spars, particularly the local cider."

Hard to fault, would go back there in the future. The food was excellent and the service was good. Recommend the crispy squid.

What more is there to add, I'm salivating just remembering that meal. I rounded it off with salted caramel whiskey ice cream, yum!

This bistro has a very attractive room overlooking the sea. The menu has wide choices and the food was excellent. Good wine list. We should have returned for a second evening in our week's holiday nearby if the service had been more restrained. No criticism of the speed (they clearly have good kitchen staff) but we don't need to gossip with an over-friendly waitress, or wait for our bill while she chats at length to other guests.

We have travelled from Kent to stay for the week as we do every year, and fancied a change of scenery. On arrival the restaurant was quiet but did not take long to fill up. The service and food was simply fantastic! I had treated the 6 of us to celebrate my parents anniversary and they couldn't say one negative comment. Only one problem was that the 1/2 kilo of muscles didn't seem to be cooked properly, so we asked the kind waiter if he could help us out and cooked another immediately. Very attentive and friendly staff. Thumbs up to the chefs too! Tipped generously!! we will certainly be back here next year!

We ate as a large family. Lovely location and premises but virtually empty which was worrying. Didn't do half size portions of steak for the children and I thought the prices were a bit steep for what ended up on the plate, bearing in mind mackerel is a very cheap fish. It was all cooked well but the portion sizes left a bit to be desired. Staff were over pretentious and we had to listen to a description of all the beers they had on sale. Just be friendly and efficient and be able to answer any questions diners may ask! Overall, dissapointing but not a disaster. May suit other people but we found better in the village. Not suprised that they are ranked low in St Agnes. Who knows, they could...

A light and modern restaurant with sea views and an interesting menu should be a little gold mine. Maybe it is, but when we went we were the only customers for over an hour. That said it did mean we had excellent service which didn 't deteoriate when other customers eventually arrived. However the service and menu aside the food didn 't quite match the expectation. The special scallop starters were well cooked and delicious, coral on for those that like it, but the cod and venison mains were both badly over cooked. A shame as the overall dishes you could tell would have been nice had the main event not been ruined. A nice wine list and delicious puddings (especially the orange and maple syru... View menu

Lovely location, we were made welcome by the friendly staff, but the food portions were tiny! We had scallops and a curried monkfish starter each and for the £7 we paid for each dish, although nice, it just was not enough. Same for the main courses; my cod salatimbocca was nice, came with parmentier potatoes , but instead of a full portion, there were five or six little cubes surrounding the cod. More of a decoration than a the portion of potatoes that one would expect with a main course. At around £16 for the main courses, this was not great. Beautiful presentation and good service from nice staff in picturesque surroundings. This is what is what the two stars are for. We had chocolate brow...

The place is absolutely gorgeous, very rustic and well decorated. It is connected with the pub downstairs, so if you want a drink they have at the pub they'll get it for you! The staff is very friendly and polite, and another plus for us, the restaurant is dog friendly. The choice on the menu is pretty good, with both fish and meat, and it's then topped up by a special board, again with a choice of both. However the vegetarian option is a bit small. I ordered one of the specials, sea bass with aioli sauce and sautéed vegetables. The sea bass was scrumptious and cooked to perfection, the sauce complimented the fish very well too, however the vegetables seemed more boiled than sautéed. Overall...

"So let us share our experience, We went in tonight as a family after seeing that it home made food on the drive to sennen and looked online and had a good look at the food available on the menu also looking to see if it was dog friendly and it ticked all the boxes, Upon arrival me and my wife went in 1st to ask if we could have a table for food and if dogs can go inside and staff were a little unsure but they confirmed we could upon asking for a table for 7 but one in a pram he said we don’t have the availability to cater I was looking at a table big enough and eventually said that this table was available whilst being seated we had 2 table one clean and the 2nd just been finished with so needed a clean but he came and cleaned both tables and he squirted the cleaner on a clean table and the over spray bounced off the table and went over our selfs then we were handed a menu freshly printed A4 paper thrown on the table (WET TABLE) so they stuck to the table upon agreeing what we wanted we went to the bar within 2-3 mins of being seated we knew what we wanted and when we asked for the meal it was OUT OF STOCK (Sunday lunch) ok fair so as I was with a family member at the bar I quickly rushed back to the table to ask my daughter of an alternative she wasn’t happy, So I made a meal up of all the extras on the menu so I went back to the bar to find my family member ordered 2 fish and chips then I realised my wife also wanted Sunday lunch so I quickly rushed back to ask her what she wanted and went back to the bar just as my family member left and asked for fish and chips was also sold out also! 99% of the menu was SOLD OUT this should of been discussed upon arrival not as we were ordering I run and operate my own business and this isn’t how I would treat my customers this isn’t how an establishment should be ran! Even when I was standing trying to order a member of staff was standing there arm against the wall doing nothing while customers are standing waiting to be served! So we decided not to eat and my family member went back to the bar to ask for a refund as we couldn’t eat as a family and the staff were iffy about offering a refund but 10 minutes later they did refund my family member as it became a scene for other people as they could see what had happened! This establishment should be call the 1st and late time you come here! We ended up walking to the chip shop down the road for food we are very disappointed in this company and establishment! For anyone who wants to eat please make sure they HAVE STOCK how can this establishment run without stock? Never again tonight they lost over £200 revenue due to this situation!"
