The specials board included several fresh fish options. Good choice of wines, superb food & excellent service combine to make this a very special venue for both locals &... More

We sadly only tried the Lakeside cafe recently, despite living in the Newquay area for 3 years! What a mistake! Someone had told us that it was nice but quite expensive, but this was not our experience, we thought it was extremely good value, and they do not overcharge on the drinks. I had the mussel, crab claw and crevette... More

Popped in at lunchtime as have been hearing so many good things about this place. It was busy, always a good sign. Staff were very welcoming, found us a nice table. We had smoked haddock rarebit and fishcake which were both tasty and well presented. Definately like the look of it for an evening meal next time we are visiting... More
