El Barco Restuarant in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We had been turned away from somewhere… turned up here and welcomed with open arms cold cider and good food… you could drive past this place but please don’t

October trip We used this place twice and have to say it was a great experience for us with the staff so nice and the food being so good. The ambience and feel was perfect for our young kids and us xx

The food is SO SO good here! I had a veggie dish (cannot remember the name) and absolutely loved it. The steaks and fish is always cooked perfectly. My son had a pizza that was bigger than his head!! The staff always go above and beyond, so friendly and attentive.

Asistieron a una fiesta para mis tíos 90 cumpleaños. El servicio es razonable para un grupo grande. La comida era buena.

Muy decepcionado, ensalada, no hay mucho triste nada. No volveré. Necesitarán su juego si quieren que la gente vuelva.

Large menu, with loads if fish/seafood dishes and several steak options. Will also let you order off the bencoolen bar menu if you prefer. Have been here several times, most recently with some friends. Food is very good, with some different/more unusual dishes that are really worth trying. Delicious Spanish style seafood dishes. Relaxed friendly pub atmosphere, ideal if you want a restaurant quality meal, without any of the stuffiness of an upmarket restaurant.

Eaten here many times. One of my all time favourite restaurants. Food is well prepared and imaginative with out going over the top. Portion size is good and a very pleasant staff. Highly recommended!!

Went to the El Barco restaurant. Had a meal from their menu and I wasnt disappointed. The food was tasty and filling. I returned the following sunday and had their sunday roast. It was delicious :) would recommend for both food and hospitality. The bloke behind the bar with a foreign accent went out his way to make us feel welcome.

We came across El Barco wile driving around the Bude area trying to find a restaurant that was not fully booked. We were made very welcome and the waitress was very friendly and courteous. I ordered a medium/rare steak with some trepidation as my experiences in the past with other restaurants have been less than satisfactory when it comes to steak being cooked to my liking. This was SPOT ON - nicely cooked on the outside and a lovely shade of red in the middle. It was absolutely amazing. My wife enjoyed her meal also (a chicken dish), The starters were excellent and generous without being over filling, so the main could be enjoyed. We went for ice cream as dessert but 3 scoops proved too much for both of us. The co-owner, Lorraine, spent some time chatting with us and made us feel very welcome. The price was definitely VFM. We would recommend this restaurant and will be more than happy to go there again if we are in the area.
