The Star Inn, St Just

A proper old time beer only pub. It was quiet when we visited early afternoon but there was a more than friendly welcome to be had. Nice chat with the landlord and the only other customer was an old cap propping up the bar but friendly nonetheless. Recommended.

The First And Last, Sennen

Sorry if I appearred to offend you firstandlastgirl but I can only point you to the comment posted by Pat Bateman. I have just come back from a visit to Sennen and I still can't get a good feeling from the F&L and believe me I want to. It is simply not a welcoming pub. It should be a winner, great beer, free entertainment on a Saturday night, what's not to like? But there is something about the place that makes it unwelcoming. I can't pinpoint why, nor will it stop me going back when I am in Sennen but I just feel i could be a friendlier place. My wife always references the "Slaughtered Lamb" scene in "An American Werewolf in London" it really does seem that unfriendly.

Old Sucess Inn, Sennen Cove

Great location, will be my local again in 2011 and great local cornish hand pulled ales but............
The beer and the view are to die for and the one night we dined, it was good. But as with most of the pubs in and around the locality they are all a bit shabby. A decent outside area as ever ruined by smokers but you can't have it all I suppose. The major saving grace is you can cross over the never busy road outside and sit on a bench and watch the tide come and go or watch a spectacular sunset with a fine pint of ale in your hand, so not all bad!

Seemed to be a bolt hole for the lads who volunteer for the lifeboat crew (heroes one and all ) as well as they were all in one night we were there tucking into a mountain of ribs and chips after a practice launch so for that alone I added an extra couple of points.
