Pretty good tourist pub. Beer limited to St Austell Tribute & HSD served in good condition and ok prices. baxterfish - 14 Feb 2017 14:30 |
This really was one of my favorite pubs. Use to use it in the late '80 before I moved away (yet again!). Visited about a week ago. The core of the pub was still the same but had been heavily extended at the back, but not to it's detriment. As for the beer, well......I asked for a pint of 'Otter', it was presented like something from the river Thames. But the manageress very quickly noticed it and replaced in no fuss.........changed the barrel but didn't clean the line first - result the second pint was hazy and 'tainted'. Must try a little harder in my opinion. Other than that it really still is a great pub. wolvesfan - 22 Dec 2013 17:28 |
Im not a great fan of carveries, but as far as they go, this is one of the best. NOT the usual soggy veg and dried up old meat. The meats were cooked just right and they didnt scrimp as some carveries do. Veg also well prepared. The problem with carveries is that if they are popular you find yourself queuing for your lunch like in a works canteen, and if they're not you get dried up meat and soggy veg. This place seems to have got it just right so well done for that. Oh and the beer? Mostly St Austell, well worth drinking, and a nice garden and surperb views cellarbuoy - 24 Jun 2012 22:45 |
Lovely friendly staff, delicious grub in large portions, nice and airy. Great place to stop on the way down or up country. BornAtheist - 5 Sep 2011 14:15 |
The Sunday Carvery here is pretty good. The meat is usually VERY nice and they give you plenty of it, but the veg can occasionally let it down. On the whole pretty good but other bar meals I've had there were nothing special. Anthropoid - 24 Jun 2011 00:21 |
