Constantine Restaurant Julian Lloyd in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Dined here this evening (19 Aug) for the third time in as many months. It never fails to impress. Delicious food, beautifully presented, served by a happy and efficient team. I had the whitebait - great quality as opposed to quantity which tends to be the norm. My main was the linguine, which is stuffed full of delicious seafood. A very generous helping, but managed to finish it as it was SO good. I like to think I’m a chocolate mousse connoisseur, and this one was to die for! There are several restaurants nearby, badged under well known names, but I have to say the Constantine leaves them behind in terms of taste and value. The revamp of the restaurant has been a great success, improving the ambience, and providing a really enjoyable experience. Will be back soon.

A firm family favourite. There was no doubt where we were going for dinner to celebrate my Mums 70th Birthday. Food & wine as always was incredible. The service from Sam was charming. Thank you Tina for always looking after us. We will be back soon.

The food was excellent; a great choice, with lots of specials on top of a good varied menu. The service was efficient and friendly. A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Our first visit back to the area since Lockdown and really pleased to find the restaurant remains the same high quality. Staff friendly and food exceptional. Add he great view and this remains a real winner!

Much improved since our last visit in 2019. Very good food and service. Glad I broke my don't order pizza unless in an Italian restaurant rule, as my pizza was excellent - just wish they did a seafood one. Covid-wise: excellent with tables well spaced and staff wearing facemasks.

This is an absolutely stunning place to dine, with breathtaking views across the headland to the sea. It’s wonderful to watch the sunset whilst enjoying a delicious meal and the food is of a high standard, which would be expected given this is relatively pricey. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Disappointing however, is the complete lack of vegan options. There is absolutely nothing on the menu for those who have chosen to eat a plant based diet. Vegetarian options are limited too consisting of just a single starter and mains option, both heavily laden with cheese. I did enquire about whether vegan options could be catered for but was told a polite ‘no’. It surprises me that in an era when the fastest growing food preference is plant based and an increasing number of the population are becoming vegan that this hasn’t been embraced. Sadly, this otherwise delightful restaurant risks losing a significant amount of trade unless it addresses this.

So we never got to dine there. We saw this place in September 2020 - and planned to return. Planned our itinerary well in advance and booked this restaurant for Sunday 13th June approximately 3 months ago. Just had an email from the restaurant cancelling our booking as they - no alternative date offered:- “I am emailing regarding your Restaurant booking with us on Sunday 13th June. Unfortunately due to unforseen circumstances we are unable to offer evening service on this day. We apologise and hope to see you at Trevose some other time. Kind regards, Joe” “Some other time!” ? Don’t think so Joe! 😡 When I asked for an alternative date, was rudely directed to the online booking system - every evening of our stay now fully booked! Disgusted that we have been cast aside because they have a better offer - “European Legends”??? Doubt we will get a booking anywhere else decent now at such short notice. Meant to be a special meal after all this COVID stuff. Nice reward for my wife who has worked her socks off in the NHS. Please don’t give me the story about being short-staff - we have had our personal challenges too! Disappointed is an under-statement! 🤬

Such excellent food is rare indeed and to have it with such superb views is rare indeed. The menus is not as varied as some but the quality makes up for it. Any one who dines here is in for an good surprise. There is good golf as well

Played golf here with my 19 year old son, great venue 3 different courses and fantastic views out to sea. We had lunch here between our 2 nine hole rounds. £10.00 each for a day pass was great value I went for homemade carrot soup extremely tasty, with some chips as a filler, son went for scampi and chips, an excellent sized portion and wolfed down, we had a beer and a coke and the whole lot was aRound £30. Possibly a bit overpriced but worth it for the views. Staff were really friendly and the views are fantastic it is such a modern venue came back in for a 19th hole and joined by the ladies who had been in Newquay for the day, very enjoyable, so much so we are thinking of staying next time.

As we were staying in Constantine Bay, it seemed a good idea to try the golf club restaurant and its excellent sea view. Price-wise, no worse than many other restaurants in the area. A fairly standard menu. Service a little confused, and table not clean. Prawn and crab coctail starter excellent. Fish (sole) excellent. Belly pork nice and hot, though sitting on not so hot vedge. So not perfect, but we'd not rule out going again.

I HAVE USED THE BAY OVER THE PAST 3 YEARS AND RECOMMENDED IT TO FRIENDS ..HOWEVER THIS YEAR I WISH I HAD NOT SPENT THE MONEY...THE MENUE WAS NOT VERY INVITING FOR A SEA FRONT RESTARANT, I ORDERED TRADITONAL FISH SOUP..6.95lev it was not worth 2lev..there was no fish only small pieces of vegetables in a small bowl, no taste of fish?? then I had BABA GANOUSH..it said with salad...again a small pile of very fine chopped tomato,cucumber,onion, if it was windy it would have disappeared....8.95lev....what happened to the set menues ?? shish ? lovely fragrent chicken, pilaf rice, and curry sauce, and flat bread was about 12.95??? BEAUTIFUL...BRING IT BACK..THE PLACE WAS EMPTY....

Nice locational setting to watch the sunset over the sea but unfortunately other factors let it down. The food is nice but very average and not particularly something to go home raving about. It’s all pretty standard and could be cooked at home. This is a shame considering the high price that is charged. The dishes don’t feel cooked fresh, rather made in the day in the ceramic dishes and reheated for dinner service. The service is very friendly but not exactly attentive. Vegetarian options are limited and the goats cheese tart that I ordered off the specials had very underdone puff pastry with large rubbery bits of cheese inside. The ‘warm lemon posset’ also turned out to just be a lemon tart. The restaurant attracts large groups after golf, but considering the price and food one might be better off just using the bar facilities. Would if going, go for lunch not dinner. It’s a shame as it’s evident they have tried with this restaurant but certain factors let it down.

The view is to die for sun sea and sand. The food is even better if that is possible. And the service polite and friendly. They are also very knowledgeable about food and drink. A must eat place for dinner and breakfast.

Lived in the area for 6 years - first visit - service and food both spot on. Then there’s the view! Will return.

19 of us visited the golf club for a meal once again. First class service and food, the staff really can not do enough for you. 19 meals served one after the other so we all ate at exactly the same time.

The food at Constantine Restaurant is always first class. Whether you go for a sandwich lunch or for dining in the stylish elegant restaurant, the food is always wonderful and beautifully presented. It is one of our very favourite places to eat in the Padstow area. The staff are always efficient and friendly. The views from the panoramic windows are amazing too.

Very delicious food with a good choice of courses. Very attentive and lovely friendly staff. Highly recommended.

6 of us stayed at Trevose Golf Club played and then ate in the restaurant.Good menu of local fish and meats,good service,excellent views across the course matched by the food.We also had breakfast the following morning which was of the same standard.

Food great but menu a little limited IMHO. Quality food, service good but they take last orders in the week at 830 so worth bearing in mind. Nice wine menu and good gin selection 😋

First things first. The view from the terrace across the course and out towards the setting sun are simply breathtaking. Definitely worth a visit to enjoy a drink and a sublime sunset - but take something warm to wear as it's often breezy and very cold.

Nuestra segunda vacaciones familiares en la bahía (alquilando una casa en la calle del club de golf) Andy y yo, además de diferentes miembros de la familia han visitado el club de golf para bebidas y siempre me encantó el recibimiento y las vistas, así que pensé que sería ideal una cena como un corto paseo desde nuestra casa alquilada.

Called in for lunch on a Saturday with the clubhouse buzzing with activity. Nice range of sandwiches and larger meals. Really enjoyed the Fish and Chips very well presented.

We were given a voucher for a two night break here and ate dinner on the Friday even evening. The food was excellent and as good as St Petrocs.

El entorno en el Restaurante Club de Golf Trevose Constantino es sin duda espectacular, cenamos aquí el viernes 11 de agosto a las 6 de 0 Reloj. Hemos comido aquí muchas veces, pero no en los últimos tres años. El pescado y las patatas fritas eran de renombre como el servicio.

Comimos allí dos veces durante nuestra estancia en la zona. La comida es excelente y la vista desde el restaurante es fantástico. Nos sentamos y vimos la puesta de sol en una velada encantadora veranos. El personal es extremadamente amable y muy servicial. Recomendaría comer temprano como se pone tranquilo lleno (con partidos de golf - es un club de golf, después de todo!) tarde en la noche.

An excellent meal with a wonderful sunset over Constantine. Very busy though so service took a while. The scallops were excellent.

There is a good menu, most tables overlook the golf course, beautiful sunsets, if you eat there every night, it is possible to run out of dishes.

This was probably one of the worst meals I have had in a long time which was most disappointing. Surely a fresh Sunday roast is not too difficult to provide instead of a very tired, tepid, colourless excuse for a meal. The restaurant was not at all busy- I wonder why? Such a wonderful location and in an area that is now very well known for the variety of culinary venues, most of which are a great experience to eat at, however the restaurant here at the golf club is a sad excuse for an eating establishment. What on earth is the problem?Several of those in our party will not be beating a path to this restaurant for quite a long time. A great shame.

We've eaten here many times over the years and this is the least enjoyable meal we've had. The welcome was cool if not non existent. We were given a lovely table by the window but the girls serving seemed to forget about us as soon as we sat down. We asked for several bottles of wine during the meal and each time it took too long to arrive. The food was warm not hot when it arrived and the chips must have been sitting around for ages as they were awful. I asked for broccoli spears with almonds and got a bowel of very overcooked broccoli heads with no almonds and no explanation. The other members of the group had very average meals. And not once did anyone come over to ask if everything was alright, the girls were untrained, uninterested and unhelpful. At a place like this you'd expect much better food and much better service.

Attended the Xmas party. Good food great waiting staff, especially Ian. Disappointing buffet breakfast. Toast machine rubbish.

Played golf all week on the superb Championship Golf Course and the Sunday Lunch was equally champion. Beef was excellent and goof value for money.

The staff were lovely and attentive to our every need. The food was lovely. We thought 3 courses for£18 excellent value and were not disappointed. The squid starter is lovely. Perfect roast beef, crispy roast potatoes and perfectly cooked veg and delicious sticky toffee for pudding - the perfect Sunday lunch. Drinks and coffees all reasonably priced. The views finished it off perfectly.

We have eaten at Constantine Restaurant four or five times over the summer, as it's a short walk from where we stay and has gorgeous views over Constantine Bay. It's always been ok, nothing special but convenient. This last time was mid September and we arrived just before 6pm without a reservation but were fitted in if we gave the table back by 7.30pm - no problem. We were handed some menus and had a drink in the bar first. When we got up to take our table, there was nobody around, so we hung out for a bit. Finally a young lady turned up and said she wasn't sure which table we were at, but did we want to place our order right now. Standing up, at reception? That's a novel procedure. We said we'd rather take a seat first - we knew which table as her colleague had told us - and took a seat in the empty restaurant (the bar staff said they were fully booked but maybe they meant later. Ok, we are early birds!). Starters were Superfood Salad and Chicken Caesar salad. The superfood salad consisted mainly of a blob of cold, overcooked quinoa (and dried bacon on top. Not very superfoody?). We would suggest, in the nicest possible way, that the chef pays a couple of visits to London to see how superfood salads are prepared - ok, we're spoilt, but cooking quinoa is not difficult. The caesar salad contained a couple of unfortunate looking, undercooked pieces of chicken which I left to one side. Overall, it was ok, nothing special. Next up was lamb with vegetables and battered tiger prawns with fries, which arrived as soon as the starter plates had been cleared. Come on guys - it was only 6.40 at this point. Either accept walk-ins graciously or not at all. Again, it was all just ..... ok. In the midst of eating, the head waiter (I assume he was the head waiter by the level of cocky-ness) had a loud pitch phone conversation at reception. The whole experience was pretty disappointing. Aside from the food, the club house is looking tired and needs a refurb (especially the toilets). The bar staff are only interested in the golf punters (you don't exactly receive a warm welcome as an 'outsider'). You can't even use the wifi because 'all the campers come in and download their movies'. Beautiful setting, poor everything else. This visit will be our last - until such time that there is a management change, or change in chef - or both.

Table number 11 for lunch.Starter of pate with mushroom - top class.My wife had butternut squash soup - not my favourite veg but she loved it.Two portions of roast pork with a Yorkshire pudding, roast potato, snap peas, small carrots, cauliflower cheese and broccoli.Mustard and apple sauce.Great view from my table.Overall excellent value and a place that I would certainly return to.

We had just been for a long walk along the coast and were looking for a place to grab a Sunday roast. Having previously stayed at trevose golf course I knew we were in for a great view whilst we ate but the food, service and value for money was absolutely superb. We had a 6mth old with us and had just been walking for a few hours so weren't in 'normal golf club attire' but we were made more than welcome and the service team were so attentive and friendly it was such a pleasant change compared to other more pricey and pretentious restaurants in the area!! A 3 course Sunday roast came in at £16 and the roast was just amazing, I initially was disappointed when roast beef (favourite) wasn't on the menu but the pork lion was out of the this world... The starters and desserts matched the quality also. Seriously.... Forget the Rick Stein and Paul ainsworth offerings down the road and get up to trevose golf course (on a Sunday anyway).. The whole team for the chefs to the waiters deserve some credit for what the offer and the value for money of what o they produce.

We had visited the golf course before but never stayed long enough to try out the restaurant fully. All I can say is wow....The staff were a young and friendly bunch, all smiling and very proffessional. I asked for some fresh oysters that were not on the menu that one night and nothing was too much trouble.The Lobster I had was one of the best I have ever tasted, and I have eaten a few as I worked in the Caribbean for many years. Also the standard snack and food we had from sandwiches to fish and chips were all of a very high standard. I will certainly be back to stay and would even do so just to eat here again.

Well well after many a year strolling past of an evening enjoying the vista of Trevose head and it's isthmus we decided to give "the golf club" restaurant a try. As reviews before paint the glory of the views, expected by us, we were pleased at quality of the meal.that said,going by past reviews and studying menu from outside it's very evident the menu remains a constant fixture like the views.internal decor plain and clinical, but windows view makes up for that.A pleasing side aspect was the staff, all knowledgeable in food to wine choice, cheerfully busy and responsive, not a foreign accent to be heard.Pricing to meal quality very reasonable, 3 course for 2, aperitif bottle of wine 100. Heartily recommend you give it a go, next year we will at least once. Let's hope menu does change (can't get much better though).

We are staying at Trevose Golf Club, and decided to try the restaurant. It was first class, the view alone is worth going, we managed to get a table by the window. The staff where very professional and all with a smile.The food was cooked to perfection and hot. For starters I had tempura fish and wife the salmon, for mains I had the steak, my wife had the sole both dishes looked and tasted great and where good sized portions. The menu choice was good, they also have a bar menu which can be served in the restaurant. Try it you won't be disappointed.

This was our first visit to Constantines having planned to go several time since it's opening. We have a holiday home nearby and are used to the wide range of excellent restaurants in the area.Let me start by saying the views are spectacular and worth the visit alone.The restaurant decor is a little bland and indeed the more casual restaurant (Colts) has a little more warmth. Clearly trying to be modern but just not pulled it off.We were given the Constantine menu which is fairly short and were confused by hearing other dishes being offered around us. Turns out we had only been given one of the two menus available.I had Tempura followed by Goan Fish curry. Tempura was tasty but on the small side. Curry was good. My wife had mussels followed by fish and chips which looked good but apparently the mushy peas were awful.Service was a little mixed.A bit disappointed overall. Will try the more casual option next time.

Excellent meal at good value. Plaice especially tasty as were the squid nibbles. Good service. Will come back again but only if they turn the lights down in the evening, as it is like eating in a light house! Decor ok but Ikea influenced, with chairs and curtains lacking character.

Rarely does one experience a faultless dining experience, but my wife and I did today! Everything about our visit for Sunday lunch was exceptional. On arrival we had a drink at the bar and a very welcoming barman provided an excellent Pinot Grigio Rose and an excellent pint of St. Austell, Tribute bitter. Our table had a superb view over the golf course and the service was first class. We both had the roast chicken main course and it was outstandingly good. Cauliflower cheese, superb roast potatoes, beautifully cooked carrots and green vegetables, yorkshire pudding and bread sauce and delicous gravy. The chicken was cooked to perfection. Our desserts were outstandingly good and beautifully presented. Service was superb, the staff were very attentive and the whole experience was first class. And what excellent value for money. I recommend this restaurant without any criticism whatsoever. Well done and thank you . In a world of increasing mediocrity, this was a great experience.

Non-golfers are welcome at this club-house restaurant, brightly decorated, and with sea views. It is well away from the bustle of Padstow.Early evening was quiet, but booking is advisable, especially if requesting a sea view.Service was relaxed and helpful, but one of the servers was not quite up to standard.Food was superb, and my Goan fish curry did have the correct accompaniments. However, the baked scallops were sitting in a sauce watery from the bed of spinach.£100 total for 2, including 3 courses & wine.

I took a group to Julian Lloyd's new venture recently on the recommendation from a friend who had eaten in Stein's Australian outlet that Julian helped set up and it was every bit as good as I had been told...infact it was better! The menu had something for everyone - from calves brains and ray wing for those feeling a little more adventurous, to the likes of pork belly terrine, Dover Sole and a delicious chicken dish for those less brave (like me!). Choice was extensive but with the emphasis on seafood...and every dish was made with equal imagination, attention to detail ...not to mention creativity and thought behind the presentation.With so many great places to eat in the area my guess is that Constantine will be spreading a mixture of fear and joy...fear to the other restauranteurs and joy to all gastronomic connoisseurs! My only regret was having to leave...but i will be back!

At Trevose golf club. this restaurant has the best views you could want. Lovely food, great menu just a very special place to eat

Bloody marvelous.Expertly cooked unobtrusive service and good atmosphere. One of the best in the area and always on our top list when going out to eat.

My other half chooses scallops at every opportunity and the ones here - baked with bacon and Parmesan and beautifully presented - were rated as out of this world (which is a rare accolade as they're usually a big disappointment!). My confit belly pork on black pudding mousse was also excellent.There was a limited choice of mains - often a good sign - and my wife would have chosen lemon sole were it not for the fact that it didn't come with any vegetables. Instead she joined me with my customary choice (whenever available) of confit duck, served here on red cabbage with mashed potato and gravy. Well, that humble description doesn't do it justice, as all three elements were fantastic.I ordered a side of broccoli spears - the only additional veg on the menu - which in my view was as poor as the rest of the meal was good. It was seemingly cooked in olive oil - which if so was taking the confit idea too far - but it ill-behoved me to complain as the menu had said "(with olive oil)" and I hadn't queried the point when ordering. Sadly I can't comment on the desserts as nothing took our fancy on the similarly restricted menu.Apart from the broccoli the food was as good as it gets without becoming 'flashy', and we'd thoroughly recommend this restaurant.NB. You'll need a car...

Have been going to Trevose Golf Club for meals for years but with Julian Webber's arrival the food has definitely gone up a huge step! Been twice in one week it was so good - three excellent courses, all cooked to highest standards and proficiently served by excellent staff. About £70 for two people, three courses, with bottle of wine so not as dear as Stein etc. Ask for a window table as the view out to Trevose Head and the sea is absolutely spectacular, especially at sunset. Will be going again!

Fancied a meal out of Padstow itself, so came here following a good couple of reviews and chef's reputation. We were warmly greeted but then left sat for ages waiting for someone to take our drinks order. Eventually someone arrived to take our food order, not realising we had no drinks, to his credit he sorted out both. I had smoked duck starter, Asian flavours followed by Goan fish curry. Both were well cooked and presented, a bit baffled though that the curry came with mango chutney and raita but no popadoms or naan to dip in them. Luckily I'd saved some bread. On that point, the bread that came was white, I asked if brown was available and was told it wasn't, odd as I could see brown coming out with salmon starters. The chocolate fondant pudding was divine and the Sauvignon Blanc was good and reasonably priced. My partner's dishes of scallops, steak and lemon posset were also well received. Throughout the evening, service was haphazard to say the least. Rob, was the only one who seemed to genuinely care. The other staff just seemed to disappear and other tables had food arriving for individuals at the table at all different times, with drink orders being forgotten. In short the food was very good, but room for improvement with little things (e.g. Bread choice, popadoms/naan with curry), vast improvement needed on the service. No one seemed to be in charge and tables weren't individually allocated. A bit of a shambles. A shame really as we expected better

Visited the new Julian Lloyd restaurant last night and if that wasn't worth the trip down from London alone I don't know what was.Amazing.Before my 1st course arrived there was a little amuse-bouche of half shelled mussels with pesto and tomato. Yum.Being by the coast it would be a crime not to have fish and the Langoustine Ravioli didn't disappoint. Lovely thin pasta with a soft creamy centre. Lovely big pieces of langoustine too.The main course was Goan Fish Curry with beautiful pieces of gurnard more than standing up to the spicy flavours. Perfectly cooked fluffy rice, cucumber raita and mango chutney. Wowser. I could have eaten it twice. It's a must try!Finishing off was a decadent chocolate fondant with salted caramel ice cream. Watching the perfectly cooked fondant release its oozing soft centre was a joy. Well balanced against the saltiness of the ice cream this was a plate licking finish to a fantastic meal.All washed down with a chilled Gewürztraminer, this was a joy from start to finish.A huge recommendation. Get booking.

Julian Lloyd (formerly executive chef at Rick Stein's restaurant in Australia) opened this new restaurant in February in the dining room of the Trevose Golf Club. The food is delicious and both the Goan Fish Curry and the Sea Bass mains were as good as anything we have enjoyed at Steins, Outlaws or No6. Service was warm and enthusiastic and there is a very reasonably priced wine list. In summer the view over Constantine Bay will combine to make this an unforgettable dining experience. Ask for a window table.
