First and Last Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

As the pub is the 'last/first inn' in England, we felt it lacked that something that would make it more interesting. The menu has little choice, but, although the food was tasty, we felt it was overpriced for the amount plated. If down this way again, it's not a place to revisit sadly.

For starters it was so loud in there, not a relaxing Sunday lunch as planned, had to ask several times for someone to just clean our table from previous peoples food and drink!!!! Food was very average. Staff were not that friendly and when my son asked for a pool cue to play pool he was told there was none(apparently had all been snapped) 5 minutes later a local goes to the bar and hey presto there’s a pool cue for them(very strange) if your a local you might be ok!!! Told to get to the back of the queue when trying to order puddings when there was no order or queue to be seen. Felt like we weren’t wanted in there. Definitely would not recommend this place.

Went here for the first time having lived in Cornwall for 15 years. Pub is deceptively larger than it looks from the outside. Not a bad place, clean and tidy with a fair selection of drinks. Ordered Sunday lunch which was okay, nothing special, but the service was extremely slow, had to wait ages for the meal to arrive and others were also complaining about how long the food was taking .

So I arrived at the First and Last Inn and was greeted by a handsome man and lovely blonde barmaid (her name is Leilani) and the man's name was Leon. He was nice and polite but the barmaid was the star of the show! The way she made my Guinness was beyond exceptional. She told me all about the heritage of the pub and about how there is a terrible ghost named Annie.. this pub is not for the feint of heart.

I highly recommend bringing a picnic. The food is expensive and not tasty. The gluten free food was really disappointing.

So over priced 3 jalapeños for £6 5 chicken wings £10 making them £2 per item They weren’t even nice The chilli I thought was coming with rice and nachos but only cam with nachos £16 and it was disgusting They are taking the mick Greedy people

Living in Cornwall, we’ve been to a number of places around the county and have to admit this was very poor. Drinks were overpriced and food was nothing to write home about; small portions and quite bland. Feel this pub is charging excessive prices to fleece the tourist. Won’t be visiting again

Very average not a lot of choice seemed to be frozen food warmed up . Not a lot of choice. Nice staff beer was ok. Good children play area

Lovely pub but only plastic glasses in garden which led us to drinking inside . We have not returned as when you are paying over £6 a pint you do not want to drink it out of a plastic cup!

Stayed here in the stables. Had a lovely lunch, very tasty prawn ciabatta with the most tasty fries Very quaint, pleasant surroundings , polite staff and a great range of food and drinks. Lovely outdoor seating area with pleasant surroundings

Very disappointing jacket potato! Wasn't even able to mash the jacket potato at all. This first one was sent back even the new one was very lumpy. I was very surprised and it was a real shame.

We called in at the pub for a drink before doing the walk to Lands End . Well named place, the last pub as you leave the first pub as you arrive. Inside near the bar you walk over a glass panel which covers an...

We went to the inn a few years ago, absolutely loved it so when my sister in law and brother in law visited from America we thought the pub would be perfect. We were so disappointed, most of the smugglers stuff had gone, only the...

After five hours walking around Land’s End, my husband and I popped in for a meal and drink on Sunday. Great Sunday roast, tasty and generous portion. I love the red cabbages!

Popped into the pub for a qucik drink, staff were polite and friendly, place was smart, looking and clean, and had a pool table

We all ordered something different. I had the potatoe stuffed with pulled pork, excellent, and my partner had their fish and chips which was better than any we'd had. The batter was light and tasty, as was the fish. It's a wonderful place to eat...

We only dropped in for a quick pint but had some chips while we were there. Really good to have the option of a gluten free beer, even though it was only a lager not an ale, and i was impressed to see how many...

Lucky we found this place as we were struggling finding anything other than chips and sausages…. the food was great; mussels, special curry and the service was very friendly and full of charming local history.

Had a few pints in here, beer was pretty poor to be honest, some of the young bar staff aren’t pouring pints properly causing them to be flat from the get go….keeping glass flat as you pour? That ain’t the way to do it! Train...

I had fish and chips and peas for Sunday lunch and it was outstanding and lovely with a glass of pims

Booked a day in advance, and when we arrived, we were told we hadn't booked and questioned. We were given the last table in the middle of the pub, which put our dogs on edge the whole time. Tables around us were free the whole...

Typical pub food with good choice for children. Staff were very nice & even when busy found time to show 4 year old how they feed goldfish in the well !

Grossly expensive for frozen food & soft drinks - shoddy service , £15 for a 9in pizza , curdled sour cream on Nachos - Only 3 staff on + 2 chefs on a Friday night, never shall darken door again

Really disappointed Sunday dinner experience. There wasn’t a roast on the menu (?) and what was on the menu was all pretty unhealthy. We ordered a pizza and the chicken burger. The chicken on the pizza was so cheap and horrible and so was the...

We went to celebrate my nephews birthday. So impressed 12 of us for lunch. All the food was hot, tasty and everyone was impressed. We had teenagers in our party and they loved the food. Everyone was so full we had no room for deserts....

Tolles Ambiente (Pub und Restaurant), bestimmt 6 verschiedene Biere aus dem Zapfhahn, das Essen gut und vielfältig, Personal super nett.

Iv been to this pub many of time and its great food and always been a lovely place to visit however my last visit they had a new member of staff and he was very rude and looked grumpy when he was serving us I soon found out that this young chap had recently been arrested for selling drugs which I don’t think I would have someone like that working for me in a family friendly pub me and my friends and their children will not b going there anymore with staff like that all the old staff where lovely and it’s such a shame this has happened to a great little pub nice clean and fresh and always recommended it to friends

Como gente decidimos probar una cena ahora el pub ha reabierto tras un supuesto renovación. Un pobre acabado de los muebles, todo destartalados y no de una manera peculiar.

El nombre del pub señaló a nuestra fiesta a este lugar. La primera y la última pub en Cornwall tuvo que ser explorada, especialmente después de su extensa renovación que ha visto el negocio cerrado durante los últimos 6 meses.

We visited this place In the evening for a few drinksAll I can say is what a place ..see for yourself!

My son and I had lunch here and I really enjoyed the experience.The food was fine, but what set it apart from other pubs was it's history.There's a fantastic glass floor which allows you to see down into the smugglers tunnels. The history of the pub is displayed on the wall. All very interesting.I also enjoyed all the teapots on display as well.

A good traditional pub with character and with more than acceptable pub menu. Dogs are welcome as are kids.

This pub has been closed by new management and the staff sacked depriving the local community of its only pub over Christmas and New Year. Why? So that it can be refurbished and turned into another twee gastro pub. That is bad enough BUT why close before Christmas and New Year when, if such a refurbishment was required, it could have been conducted in New Year.The First and Last has been a traditional place of celebration for cyclists & walkers who take part in John O'Groats to Land's End activity for a few months of the year; AND it has been a friendly welcoming pub for the local Sennen community all year round.May I recommend that visitors now go down to Sennen Cove to the Old Succcess where they will get a warm welcome; and join the local Sennen community.I cannot say a little more iin the section below as the pub is closed and will re-open as something new.

We visited the First and Last on our recent trip to Blighty. (Can I say here that this was for 10 years my "local".) It is now advertised in the pub, and on the Pub website, to our great dismay, that the landlady and staff were being changed, and that pub would be "redone" and turned into a "gastro" pub.Since our last visit, (see my last review,) the owners, Land's End, have made obvious and detrimental changes. They have removed the pool table, the darts board, bars stools and the smokers shelter, thus making the place less welcoming. This place was at the centre of village life when I lived here, and since our last visit, that has radically changed.If you read past reviews here, mine included, you will note that most of the positive ones praise the mix of local and visitor, the locals gave the place colour and character.I dread to think what will become of this once great pub.A once great pub ruined.

This has been our local for years. Recently went there one evening for a bite to eat and a few drinks. Food was poor and over cooked. Place was empty. They have sacked all the staff and closing down to reopen as a gastro pub in the spring. This used to be a locals pub but it appears that ripping off the tourists the same as they do at their other place, Lands End, seems to be more of a priority. Looks like we will all be going to the Old Success down in the cove now. But what about the live music on a Saturday?Support the locals and avoid the First and Last.

No point in going, closed from 11 Dec. Ruined by owners, locals all left, no atmosphere, no pool, darts, smoking shelter, beer festival, fireworks,live music, etc. Come the grand re-opening there will still be none of these. Equals no customers except tourists. Do not support this or Land's End(owners, Heritage Attractions Ltd). No concept of community, staff sacked 2 weeks before Christmas, nice!!

The landlady here puts her all into making her customers happy,really good food and very varied. Good beers and lager.very friendly atmosphere even though the Inn is alleged to be HAUNTED !

We should have thought twice after discovering they had shut the kitchen for food before 8pm on a Saturday night! But, we returned the following day to have a bite to eat and especially considering the very limited menu were very disappointed. My food was not worth having, minuscule portion and my partners meal was very salty and burnt. Would not recommend.

We stopped here for lunch after visiting Lands End.Thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. The Hotel was in very good condition and the menu quite varied. The range of ales served was also good. Also no problem finding a carpark.

We were on our way back from Lands End and decided we would stop here to have a drink. We pulled up as it said it was open from 12pm till late, it was about 2.30pm and was stopped in the car park by one of the bar staff saying they were closing until 5pm! Extremely disappointing and if you are going to change your opening hours say it somewhere, not great at all! You advertise to come and visit by Lands End and then you can't because you decide to close.

Had a great meal at this Inn with very friendly staff and great service. Only downside was they only had one Cornish pasty left as a large party had arrived just before us, but I had the sausage and mash which was superb . Beautiful inside very old with beams etc spotlessly clean. A great meal and drink in a great location on a beautiful sunny day at the end of September. Thank you we will return

This pub is perfect! The food has really gone uphill! It's very good pub food cooked well! Great atmosphere! Roaring log fires in the winter! Bands on most sats!

We ate in the First and Last while staying in the Stable Rooms next door. The staff were friendly, and willing to take the time to talk to you. We had the Sunday Roast here, and the meat was delicious. We also had other traditional pub grub, and this again was lovely - particularly the Sea Food platter - which tasted fresh as it should. No complaints here - a very friendly and welcoming pub which hits the spot.

This place has to be visited.. First and Last !! Good beers and service, we stopped off on a walk from Lands End to Sennen Cove via the inland route, having already done the coastal route.

First and Last Hotel in England (depending in which direction you are travelling !!!) very acceptable as it's away from the crowds at Lands End itself. Quite an historic old hostelry with a pleasant ambience. Acceptable lunchtime menu, I had a curry which was scrumptious. Well worth a stop.

Excellent food and drinks. Really a nice and coy pub. Seafood platter was delicious. Staff very nice and friendly.

As a pub which has a great title location and attraction we felt very let down by the quality of food, viewing the menu we weren't expecting anything amazing but the food we were served was frankly attrocious. Nothing on our plate had been prepared by a cook apart from yesterdays salad garnish. Everything frozen and fried and to be honest even this was a poor quality for bought in food. The deep fried battered goats cheese well, really! I find it quite sad that a place with such great potential doesn't have the imagination or inspiration to use what are some of the finest local ingredients to be found and provide decent eddible food.

When we arrived at our caravan site, the caravan wasn't ready so we went to this Inn for a beer. There was nobody in the pub or the beer garden and according to the bar maid it had been busy but as soon as the sun came out and the rain stopped everybody disappeared, probably to Sennen cove. We had a draught guinness in the garden and took some photographs. A nice beer garden with a large wooden fort with slides for children to play on.

This is a great place to eat - Quieter than those by the sea. Great food in an old smuggling inn. Lots of small rooms to choose from. Playground outside for children and outside tables.

This is a lovely little gift shop that sells the usual collections including light refreshments. Lovely view to sit and have a break.

We arrived here after a long journey and simply wanted something simply to eat. Sadly, the vegetarian options were very limited and the only really viable option off the children menu was off. The pub is very old and interesting the people were friendly and apologetic for the lack of options even thou it was only 8.00pm. The food we did have was tasty and served its purpose. We will return and hopefully more options will be available. I can only comment about the vegetarian food. The night was pleasant in the First and Last but sadly the lack of vegetarian options was a disappoint for us. P.S the brandy wasn't a disappointment though.

Visited whilst staying at a nearby campsite, the staff very friendly and helpful when we first arrived and quickly accommodated our party of 8. The menu is not extensive but offers a variety. This pub gets very busy and so there is a bit of a wait for your food. we had to wait about 45 mins for our food.when it arrived it was nice but the portions weren't that big. There is a nice play area out the back for the children but it was raining when we were there so didn't use it.Overall I would say a lovely pub with a nice atmosphere, helpful friendly staff but quite expensive for what it is.

Me and my partner decided last minute that we wanted to eat out so we came here and within five minutes of ordering our food was out. We had the apricot belly pork with veg and potatoes. Was gorgeous, thank you very much

The staff were very welcoming and despite being busy they were very attentive.Me and my partner had our 8 month old son with us and the waitresses allowed us to stay in the cubby, away from the main bar and dining area, even after service had finished and the area closed off, so that we could enjoy a quiet drink while he slept.The food was flavourful, piping hot and the prices reasonable too!

Often have bands on that know how to get the crowd going! Lovely staff, local customers and overall friendly atmosphere!!

We called to the First and Last Inn for an evening meal .We were NOT disappointed !we decided to have a three course meal each. Myself and my son both had the lightly battered goats cheese with homemade chutney and my husband had the spicey jalapeno prawns..the starter was amazing...the amount was great and the presentation was brilliant. Then myself and my husband both had the Mega mixed grill and my son had the Homemade beefburger....it was cooked perfectly and the amount was amazing!Lastly we ordered a dessert. I had the raspberry pavlova and my son had the sticky toffee pud. WOW the pavlova was huge I couldn't eat it all and the sticky toffee pud was delicious.. in short there isn't a bad word I could say about the place, the waitress was polite and extrememy helpful..HIGHLY RECOMENDED...if tyou want a light bite or a three course meal..the First and Last has it !

The last inn in England always struck us as something special so we decided to give it a go. When we enteren there were only a few peopl, mostly locals. We sat down to grab something to eat and saw this "mixed grill" for a reasonable 25 £ for the 2 of us. It sure was a mixed grill and we felt kind of stuffed after finishing the platter.The staff was very friendly and helpfull so we spent a p)leasant evening in the pub.the last in but probably not our last visit.

I visited with my uncle as he lived down the road. I think this pub is a perfect balance of locals and tourists! The food was amazing and the Cornish ale was too! It's definitely a place to visit!

Local pub. Old fashioned traditional building and bars. Full of local fishermen and similar who seemed to enjoy each tigers company. Beer and food good. Watch out for hostile parking regime nearby.

We go there regularly. It has a fantastic local atmosphere. The staff are so welcoming and chatty. They get to know you have a fantastic time. They are all so lovely with my toddler. The play area is so fun for him and other kids. The food is always beautifully presented and so filling. We are always very satisfied it's so tasty fresh cod and salad garnish. The battered goats cheese oh my days!! I would recommend this place to anyone. Only a very short walk to lands end to

Dine on two separate occasions at this establishment in late June. Not an extensive menu but a warm welcome was experienced and the food was very good. We found the meals expensive in this part of the world and I understand that restaurants and pubs have to make their money during the tourist season. This was the case in this establishment. No hesitation in recommending this eating house.

Refreshing cider, friendly staff .. and locals too .. in an interesting building with a nice atmosphere and a pleasant outside area too

Friendly and welcoming pub with good bar/restaurant food. We had booked a table for 6 through the Lands End hostel and when we arrived all was ready with our name written in chalk on a stone.Not the cheapest but the food was good and the service friendly and efficient.Recommended

Visited with family recently and had a few enjoyable drinks there. The kids loved the new play area. We chose to eat there one evening and were a little disappointed that it wasn't better. The food was very expensive for the very basic food which was served up. We would return for a drink but not to eat I'm afraid.

Me,My Wife and 3 children have just visited for a fathers day meal. We've had a great day having visited the pub numerous times in the past we've always loved it but the kids always become quickly bored and we would leave after our meal as not to disturb other diners. Well all that has changed as they've now installed a fantastic climbing frame and outdoor area to now make the pub very child friendly on the outside this also allows people without children a little peace too as there's plenty of room for both sets of clientele to enjoy their visit together. That was the good bit and we was made up from the moment we entered!! It then got better once our food arrived I had a fantastic mixed grill (Definitely the best I've had anywhere) the meat was Fresh,Tasty and Beautifully cooked and presented. This was washed down with a crisp and refreshing pint of Lager (Having had pubs myself in the past it's clear the lines are kept in tip top condition).All this was complimented by friendly and efficient service from the Landlady,Bar staff all the way to the Waitresses (I even heard an off duty barmaid in the garden explaining to a couple on the best sightseeing locations locally).Although a frequent diner out at places this is the first time I've ever been compelled to use trip advisor such was my delight at my visit. A*** to the management and staff at this wonderful family friendly pub, You'll definitely be seeing alot more of us in future thanks again.

Took my son there for a belated meal, with other friends being local and been here lots in the past and knew it was good. Off we went, pub still the same, some of the same nice staff, love the location.Ordered, food came all tasted very nice, looked nice also presented lovely. Waitress asked if all ok etc etc, which we all said yes, because of our company.Fish and chips...... Looks nice and freshly cooked with a little paper pot of mushy peas. Also chips 17 of various sizes, probably not even enough for a toddler. Tasted nice.Chicken with cheese looked nice again not a lot on a big plate. And various other dishes.Steak and new potatoes with peas.... Small steak..... Spoon of peas and 3 new potatoes all on a very big plate..... We did laugh at the child size portions, ended up having a afters which was really nice, but sorry to say we went home and had toast..... When did the portions get so small and the plates so big, ridiculous to say the least, sorry it's just a drink for us from now on until we see any changes.

Arrived had a pint went to order meal, told not serving tonight as cooker had broken down. Told open all day so come back again. So two days later we went by bus for a meal, told they did not take orders until 18.00hrs, our last bus was 18.30hrs so we did not have a meal. back to our site and made our own, Deep Joy!

We had passed this Inn while searching for our holiday home in Sennen and decided to eat there on my daughters birthday on 8th June. We looked at the menu on line before we went so we all had an idea of what we fancied. When we entered the place was empty which was unusual for 7pm. We found a table and requested a menu. On line the menu was varied and exciting but the menu we were given was basic and boring. We never the less chose our various meals and went to the bar to order. Ham egg and chips. Sorry no ham. Gammon and chips. Sorry no gammon. Lasagne and garlic bread, sorry n0o garlic bread.This went on the more we tried to order. There was no apology or explanation. We were even told if we wanted anything that had bread we would have to have a slice if they had any. We obviously didn't stay. we continued on to another pub where we enjoyed a lovely meal and spent £140. There loss!!!

Plays on the fact they're a tourist attraction. Staff were playing with iPod behind the bar and didn't come and ask if are meal was okay, it wasn't! Chicken was tough as anything, obviously had been frozen, chips were disgusting, luckily my partners steak was cooked as he asked but that was the only thing decent. The sign reads "excellent home cooked meals" - I could cook better at home for cheaper! We had our baby with us, 8 months old. Asked for a high chair and was given a cloth one that attaches to the chair - not a problem but it had obviously never been washed as it stuck of sick and had food all over it, when we told staff they just said "oh sorry" and that was it!! Won't be returning, there's nothing good about this place apart from the history behind it.

Recently visited here on our holiday to Cornwall, after going a previous year and wanting to return we were not disappointed! Lovely atmospheric place, lots of history and original features which is great!! Staff very welcoming and friendly and food delicious! Just what you would call 'pub grub' but very well cooked and tasty! Will Deffo be returning again.

This was the first and last visit to this Pub. Such a shame considering where the pub is situated. Ok it does have a historic background and ambience but could really do better to offer the weary traveller a bit more selection when it comes to the food. We were so disapointed that we were served up basic pub fayre - (basic caterering fodder) which can be found in any pub elsewhere. It could be improved by sourcing local fresh produce and basing the menu on using local cornish wares from hardworking local small outlets producing excellent produce. This would also help the local economy as well. I can't help thinking the proprieters have missed a trick by not using traditionaly sourced products for the menu. We live in the middle of Devon and nearly 7 out of 10 pubs have already moved on to offer a locally sourced menu. They do very well as the majority of people now are looking for fresh cooked local fodder. Now for the praise.... the young staff were friendly and accomodating.

very noisy pub suited to those from the vast caravan site up the road otherwise its bleak as its completly soul less

Had a lovely meal here and we were made to feel very welcome by all staff . The food was great especially the beef pie ! And the service quick . We will definitely eat here again .

Friendly service and good for a drink, but poor quality food which was expensive. We will not be going back.

We were at the First & Last Inn on the 27th April 2015. We ordered 4 times the Mixed Grill but we didn't get our food at once. First we got the meat, 5 minutes later we got the sausage and another 5 minutes later the eggs. Sorry, but the meat was cold and the steak (we ordered medium) was more than roh. We will not come back to the pub again because there are many more better pubs around. The waitress was friendly.

Really nice food and the children really enjoyed having rump steak as an option instead of the usual chicken nuggets/fish finger

Came here for a meal. The pub seems neglected and run down - certainly not shabby chic. The food was OK but not worth the money we paid for it. Perhaps we came on an off day but we wouldn't return in a hurry

Had an excellent meal here this evening. The food was fantastic and the portions very generous. Good selection of ale and drinks available. I recommend the goats cheese starter very very tasty! Served with a delicious home made chutney. The fish cakes were incredible so fresh and flavoursome. The staff were friendly and attentive and the views from the pub are simply stunning especially at sun down. There is some interesting history for this place and I love that it's a traditional pub with traditional ale and home cooked food. Well worth a visit on way to or from lands end. Will recommend to friends.

Gutes Essen und netter Service. Nach einer tollen anstrengenden Wanderung ist das der beste Ort für ein gutes Abendessen

Had a lovely meal recently. 4 dined: two starters, 4 mains & 2 desserts. All dishes were different and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Washed down with a couple of bottles of wine and some excellent local ale. Service is very friendly too. If you're in the Far West, give it a go.

Great, friendly pub. Lots of character. Lovely, tasty food. Welcoming staff. Thanks very much. Will call there again!

When our family group turned up at the First and Last at luchtime it has to be said that it wasn't our first choice. We'd tried our first-choice pub a few miles across country, and had left disappointed after being ignored and being faced with uncleared tables.So, the spacious and character-filled First and Last. It can be briefly summed up thus: a cheery welcome, good, honest, hearty pub grub at good, honest prices, and a first-class pint of ale. The food unfortuantely arrived on cold plates, but we were assured that this problem will be addressed shortly.It'll probably be a few months before one of our cliff path walks takes back that way again, but return we will, and it's rather likely that we'll pick a lunchtime.

Me and my partner visited here today (Wednesday 11th) whilst on our week away, as soon as we entered we was greeted by a friendly woman, we grabbed our drinks and orderd our food, wasn't long before it came out and was absolutely delicious! We both had the rack of ribs and the meat fell off the bone it was nicely cooked and perfection, then we followed by having a brownie (I had custard, my partner clotted cream) and yet again delicious!! Great place, great food and great atmosphere.Recommend 5*

Took a friend here for Sunday lunch and sat in the bar next to a roaring log fire as the rain poured down outside. Welcoming service and tasty food. Excellent roast beef and gravy but the vegetables were very overcooked and they could do with some new cutlery - my fork was suffering from a dose of the Uri Geller's! Super raspberry pavlova. Shall return.

Called in on Saturday after visiting Lands End, decent pint in a bar steeped in history, food service started at 18.00 so we missed out, however we did have some rather tasty lemon drizzle cake. Nice too see all the t shirts of people who have made it from John O'Groats, i noticed when at Lands End that at least two people have died when attempting this feat.

A quality Tavern! Plenty of local ales and steeped in history. Very friendly staff and locals, with a proper log fire!! The Food is very very nice pub food although possibly a little over priced, but the pub is located in a prime historic location so I guess this comes with the tourism territory. Definitely worth a visit!

We stopped here after a nice walk around a deserted Land's end for a snack and a drink.Inside there are lots of interesting artefacts from times past and cyclists and runners who have completed the JOGLE route.The food was good - a couple of sandwiches with soft bread, chunky ham, side salad and some chips. As we ate we could overhear a loud exchange between the barmaid and a local who talking about the evening before.The barmaid laughed as she described how a local (who apparently would not be barred) who drank 14 pints of cider during the day, had soiled himself in the pub and how she had to clean up his faeces from the pub lavatories. If this wasn't bad enough, she then, in detail described each place she had found it, including a (to quote) "a smeared handprint on the wall".I did look over with a "we are trying to eat here" look on my face but she didn't stop.After this exchange we were then treated to musical chairs, as the staff rearranged all the pub furniture around us whilst we were finishing our meal.Quite an interesting stop at a famous landmark pub.

Despite the heavy commercialism of the area which in my view was completely unnecessary , food and drinks welcome and very good

Great selection of beer and also Cornish lager. There was a warm cosy atmosphere and it was well decorated for Halloween. The outside seating area had a heater which helped in the foggy evening.Friendly, welcoming staff. Food was reasonable too and much enjoyed by my friends daughter even though she couldn't finish it! It looked to be a good place to stay as well.

Great specials. However for a family of 5 it was slightly pricey for what we had and the value e.g order at the bar and compare that with somewhere that does not have the location however provides fabulous service and food - First and last you need to think about what your market is...

Having spent an age trying to get the few miles to Land's End we stopped at the First and Last Inn in Sennen for a late lunch. The place was pretty much empty and very dark, dark enough that your eyes took time to adjust coming out of the August sunlight. We ordered off the basic menu and sat to wait for our meal. The room was dark with a strong smell of beer and disinfectant mixed together making for an unpleasant welcome. The ceiling was covered with old T-shirts from past Land's end to John O'Groats charity journeys. The T-shirts spanned many years and told many stories of the success of those undertaking the trips but the charity messages were often sobering and sad tales. It kind of lent an air of quiet despair and melancholy to the place. While we waited what seemed like an age for our burgers and chips we noticed a huge spider climbing over the edge of one of the t-shirts stapled to the ceiling and begin its long drop downwards on a single strand of silk. It got us thinking about how many other things and years of dirt were held in the sagging ceiling coverings. The food finally arrived, and we had to then go and get our own cutlery from a stand at the end of the bar, plus tomato ketchup, already set out in numerous open small paper pots. I wondered how long they'd sat there, near the door to the toilet, with every client passing by on their way to the bar. The food was very basic, edible, just, but very basic. Had we any other choice we'd have gone elsewhere but there's nothing in the vicinity other than the shockingly expensive tourist trap rip off that is Land's End. I won't be back to the First and Last Inn....maybe that's where it gets its name from as that was my first and last visit.

We visited here as a family of four. Food was ok, service was good, I wouldn't rave about the place though. The only issue I had with the place was that the food service only started at 6pm, if you are trying to encourage family's with young children, surely 5pm would be a better time to start serving food!

We stayed in Truro for the weekend so just had to go that little bit further and see Lands EndWe chose this place after reading Tripadvisor reviews and what a find!!!You don't turn right into Sennen Cove you go straight on about half a mile and you'll see it on your left next to an old church By the way it is worth visiting Sennen Cove as you get closer to the sea than at Lands End with some spectacular pics !!The First and Last is a quirky pub steeped in history with a well covered in glass as you enter the bar....you can spot the tourists as they are all busy taking photos lolIt's the sort of pub you wished you had stayed the night in... They do accomodation The staff are really friendly and prices are easy on the pocket We all had the beef Sunday lunch which was excellent (£8.95) and my one daughter had the prime beef burger (special) priced at £10.50Great food and excellent value topped off with brilliant customer service A must visit from me !!!!!!!!

A wonderfully old and historical pub offering local hand pulled ales and meals. The interior walls clad with all manner of maritime photos and articles particulary its links with the local smuggling industry and just in front of the bar you can peer down through glass into an escape tunnel used to evade the Excise Men. Well worth a visit

Very nice local pub with plenty of parking the staff are always friendly and its always a nice beer and fresh food 5 *

Great ale and food.... simples. Freindly staff and great location, interesting historic old building as well.

We ate here a few times recently while in Sennen. Food was always really nice especially the pie, best I've ever had. Other reviewers have commented on the portions, they have either increased or these people are greedy. There was definitely enough food. The pub is inviting and has a glass window in the floor to a well, my little one loved the wheel on the wall. The prices are average c. £11 a dish. Girl behind bar very friendly and fast. Nice to have a kids menu that has a large choice, steak, rice and peas for £5 with a mini milk. Only suggestion would be to install a kid play area out the back. Dogs very welcome in the bar.

great pub and staff very welcoming, we had the Smoked Fish Chowder, when it arrived it was a piece of fish in the middle of the dish boiled potatoes placed around the outside, which had obviously been left to boil dry so were caught , they even left the burnt bits on them, the soup was a thick brown sauce which tasted nothing like a Chowder, we ate it as we were hungry. When the waitress asked us if we enjoyed it we did explain how we felt, and fair dos to the "chef" he did come out and offer us a free drink or sweet but we were reluctant to take up the offer he did not offer us a refund. We paid £12.95 each and it was definitely overpriced.

Called in for a evening meal prior to visiting the Minack Theatre, a decent pint but seemed very secretive about a menu. Was told they didn't start serving until 6pm....fair enough, but could we see the menu anyway...No !Menu was finally presented on a clip board from which we made our choice and the food was duly delivered. The food was good and fresh but quite small portions and overpriced. £10.50 for two slices of ham, two eggs and a few chips is excessive. They do tend to rely on their history a bit and I was not impressed by the Manager/landlord standing at the bar swearing away during his conversation with a local.A bit of discipline and understanding needed.

Ate there on a couple of occasions. very good staff, although their ordering system needs an update. Was always busy, catered for kids which was good.
