| Never seen Sharpes Own before. And I like it. Great location. Friendly Staff. Great Pint. Thanks. Mappiman - 19 Apr 2014 21:56 |
| Agree with the last remark, some of the earlier reviews seem to be on a different planet! This is a decent pub, run by the Bennett family for donkeys years. Obviously a lot quieter in the winter when there aren't so many emmets around, but service is still top notch. Food decently priced and good quality and quantity is excellent. Not a gastro pub by any stretch of the imagination but still get dedicated table service anyway. Beer is usually staples Sharps Own and Doom Bar, St.Austell Tribute, plus a less common guest. The Tintagel Brewery often occupies this hand pump, the dark Gwaf Tan (Winter Fire) this week. PhilR - 20 Jan 2012 23:45 |
| Its always amusing to read some reports where they mix the pub up with another. This is a family pub that has been in the same family for three generations and is run to the best quality for what is a pub bordering on a restaurant. The pub mentioned below in the previous comments are unfortunately referring to Porth (not mawgan porth) which is two mile away and I can understand what they are saying about that pub but they are mistaken on this occasion. We visit this pub regularly when we are down in mawgan porth and the biggest clue is the fact that it is the busiest of all the local pubs with the local people (none of which I have ever met who is from Bury by the way). The beer is the best, the price is well below what you would expect and is one of the most competitive in the area and you have the premium of the amazing view to deal with. pubstig - 12 Dec 2011 10:35 |
| It's ok, certainly all right for an evening drive out and a meal with some Dartmoor Cornish Legend - but as a pub person I know that sounds like a driving of the nails into whatever pubbishness remains of this place. I don't object to diners but Kernow is now such a place of tourists that it is hard to discern the old pub drivers in such a place as Porth. The misses was driving. Which says a lot, but then with a small population of locals and a large population of grockles, what else to do? rainlight - 21 Aug 2010 22:27 |
| It has undergone a renovation. The bar is nice, new furniture, a carpet that must have been chosen by someone who is colour blind, the menu has been updated - as have the prices - but one suspects if the bells were not removed from the microwaves it would still sound like a church over Easter. It now falls uncomfortably between a modern pub (circa 1992) and a beach side drop in for the tourist masses.. Sorrowful - 28 Mar 2008 14:09 |
