"my wife and I visited today at about 5.15we were well met by a lovely gentleman behind the bar who was very personable and helpful ,who also had a great knowledge of the area. we ordered two drinks and sat in the bar where we inquired about food . we were informed that the kitchen didn't start evening meals until 6 but the gentleman asked about any allergy or dietary requirements and went through the menu with us explaining the catch of the day, locally sourced ingredients and the specials for the day . as soon as the kitchen was ready he already had our menu choices and took it into the kitchen before time .. we decided on local mussels for starter, catch of the day sea bass for myself and chicken parm for the wife .. with everything cooked to order and the place being just starting evening service I expected a wait but I was pleasantly surprised when the mussels in a beautifully decadent sauce were infront of us before I finished my pint..they were provided with a bowl and a hot lemon water to wash your hands if you eat like an animal as I tend to do .I went up to the bar when we finished the starter and met the owner of the hotel who was very happy to chat and was proud to talk about his place and the food namely the connections to the local area .this gentleman served me at the bar and when I returned to the table he came and cleared off the table ..and returned with the mains in short order ..the sea bass was exquisite and fresh , the sauce it came in was incredible and the new potatoes where slightly pan fried to give them this small crunch when you bit into them the veg was a vivid green and obviously fresh ..it was all perfectly balanced beautifully put together and filling but at the same time a light meal ..perfection .the chicken parm was presented equally well and my wife enjoyed it massively. we tried a small piece of each others and would have happily ordered each others ..and still might we have a few days here..for our desert we chose the lemon tart that was made in house and was divine ...this is first class food .have no doubt about that ...the portions are substantial I'm an eater and if I were to leave a place feeling hungry I'd not write a review .I really enjoyed myself tonight i hope I can return to try some of the other items on the menutry this place you will not regret itBest food I've had since arriving here in polperro .rhys"

At this on the outside, cozy-eyed little restaurant/pub, grab a bite to eat. Food is as far as we're concerned about not having an affair until the price and the portions are very small. The taste on the other hand was fine. The fabric banks are dirty, large stains on the clothing and the beams of the low ceiling hang a lot of dust. Not for repetitive.

One star for the friendly staff. Dropped in for a Sunday Roast, was initially told they were fully booked (signs outside advertising roasts . Only three people in the place at 1pm! There then was a change of heart and suddenly the Chef could accommodate us. Within 3 mins of sitting down a plate with over cooked veg, 3 semi roasted half potatoes and a large lump of fat with an inch wide sliver of Pork attached, all somethered in gravy, was delivered. Returned without touching, and went to the Blue Peter for Sunday Lunch instead, which was 100 times better. Find some of the reviews here puzzling (get it? . Perhaps I just got them on a bad day. Fingers crossed!
