"We were able to secure a last-minute reservation during our weekend visit to Cornwall, which was fantastic. The food and cocktail selection was impressive! We arrived at 5 o'clock, half an hour earlier than our booking, and although we appreciated their accommodation, the service was a bit slow and the prices felt somewhat high. The rump steak was £16 and the regular fries were £4. They would have been much tastier as chunky chips! Despite the long wait, the meal was ultimately satisfactory. There were a lot of "young people" on the plate, which was slightly off-putting, but I just brushed them aside with a napkin. My partner felt the same about his cocktails—he enjoyed two out of three, but found the Surfside Spray unbearable due to its strong flavor. Will we return? Possibly. We’re curious to try the summer menu!"

Great location, right near the beach. Dog friendly. Plenty of outdoor seating for the warmer weather. It always, seems busy inside too, although we've never eaten here.

What a fabulous pub. Used as my peaceful, friendly, evening retreat after spending all day running around with family, this beautiful place has stunning views and excellent staff. Special thanks to Harry, Ruben and Josh who instinctively knew when to engage in conversation at the bar and when to leave me alone to relax. I was in Porthtowan for five nights and in the Unicorn for five nights. Thank you for being just what I needed! Walkability: Easy walking distance to my beach house Food drinks: Great selection

The Unicorn has gone through a huge change in the last couple of years. It 's always been a bit of an unsure place but this is amazing. The current owners have done a wonderful job with he decor (It always felt a bit 'grotty ' inside). Now it is lovely and light, beautiful furnishings and just the whole feel about the place is so welcoming. The food is amazing too. Burger was spectacular. The trout was amazing. Desserts were gorgeous. The staff were super friendly and helpful and willing to chit chat with us when we dillydallied when we couldn 't decide what to order. Helpful suggestions. Highly reccomend.
