The Tywarnhayle, Perranporth

A great friendly family run pub, after a couple of visits the bar staff knew our drinks order and always had time for a chat, the food was great value for money and the portion size huge, the quality of meat was excellent definitely on our list on our return to Cornwall.

The Chequers, Burcot

Visited this pub recently, I was intrigued by the sign out side saying "best fish & chips in the world" so just had to go in and try.............but what a disappointment...... To start with the service was very slow, it wasnt as if it was busy, apart from my partner & I, there was another table of four people. When the meal eventually arrived, it did look nice, presented on a plate covered in newspaper with greaseproof paper on top of that, which I thought was a lovely touch in eating fish and chips the traditional way. We was disappointed however in the 'chips' they were more potato wedges!!! not at all traditional, the batter on the fish was nice and crispy, although too much of it, my partner had very little fish inside his batter and left the majority of it. So to sum up... The best fish and chips in the world I dont think so, i wouldnt even go as far as saying 'in Oxfordshire' as i have tasted better in a Fish n Chip shop in Abingdon for half the price.
