Hawkins Arms Probus in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Enjoyable meal after a long journey. A local pub - young management but doing a great job.

Understanding, welcoming and warm. I use these words as a support worker for adults with Autism and learning disabilities. Someone I was supporting wanted to try and go to a pub for a drink. I knew we were going to be passing the Hawkins Arms so I called ahead asked how busy it was and also explained we would need two tables to give space. The understanding and acceptance received from the owners and staff was fantastic. All staff had been made aware we were coming and helped every way they could. They genuinely made someone's experience fantastic by caring and that is priceless. Well done Hawkins Arms you should be proud.

We popped into the Hawkins Arms for a pint while we waited for our takeaway to be cooked. The pub was cosy and full of other patrons creating a great atmosphere. The St Austell beer was well kept and served in correct glassware, always a good sign of a pub who cares for their customers. Cheers to the Hawkins Arms.

My parents have lived in Probus for years and took me here recently after coming back for the summer from overseas. The food was fantastic and the staff were brilliant, very accommodating giving us a separate room because we have a young child. The kids menu was also great. Can’t recommend enough!

I dont normally go for plated roasts as I dont like hard veg but this place comes highly recommended so thought I'd give it a go. Not disappointed at all. I had the beef and it was amazing 3 massive slices and Lovely soft carrots, broccoli and red cabbage and roasts with a huge Yorkshire pudding 🥕 😋 Such value for the price as well!

Great food and service, the best Sunday Lunch we have had in years

Just popped in for a coffee and everything was great. We saw the food and were well impressed. Will come back for food next time.

Lovely pub, super friendly staff. Sorted some gluten free food last minute. Great beer garden

Food was ok, if you were hungry. Edible, but lacked flavour. People nice, tables sticky. Busy though.

The Hawkins is a typical village pup warm atmosphere, always a good welcome, good beers and food.

Really warm welcome from staff and locals alike. Generous portions of delicious food with a well stocked bar offering a good range drinks. Child and dog-friendly too!

I really liked this place, it is cozy, friendly atmosphere, delicious food, service I definitely recommend this place for a good stay Greetings from Ukraine 💙💛

What a great find. Very honest atmosphere with lots of locals enjoying a Sunday lunch. There was no problem about bringing in our two newfoundland dogs. In fact they made a real fuss over them. The food was well cooked and tasty. We had a beef roast followed by sticky toffee pud.

Great beef in the sandwich st lunchtime. My friends had fish and chips and said it was really good too.

Chilled atmosphere before the quiz, relaxing with a pint, friendly bar staff and locals.

Loved it here. Very friendly and a great meal. Had the steak and kidney pudding, highly recommend.

Lovely place to have lunch . Dogs as welcome as people . The food was good and reasonably priced. Menu mainly sandwiches at lunch time.

Great village pub, the owners were very friendly and the Sunday lunch was AMAZING, book a table to avoid disappointment.

Lovely pub... very welcoming lady behind the bar.. Had the lunchtime beef and horseradish sandwich with a side portion of chips... A little disappointed that didn't get a choice of bread, looked like just med sliced white bread from supermarket, which is fine if advised...but for the price I expected a little more.. Again,not alot of sandwich for the price, but on the upside,large portion of lovely chunky chips!

This is a great village pub, popular with locals and always very welcoming to visitors. Great food with the best value being fish n chips on a Friday (2 for £20). Beer garden with live music - check Facebook page.

Food brilliant, the service was good, however we were sat in the bar area and it was very noisy,which spoiled the evening a little but the food made up for that, next time we will ask for a quieter area if possible.

Positive and negative feedback. The negative we where part of a party of 20+ who booked in advance for a function, Hawkins Arms requested a list of meals in advance so they can be prepared which is fully understandable.We looked at the menu on their website only to find the menu online had not been updated so a few had to change their choice of food which again is not a major problem. What was irritating and out of order in my mind is when it came to paying every meal was £1 dearer than the online menu again because the online menu and prices had not been updated, at no point were we told until my wife questiond why the meals we had where more than it should have been. Bringing this to their attention they didn't seem too concerned over it and as they said "its ony a pound" I'm not hard up for £1 but its the principle. In my mind you could apply this to anything you buy, show it as one price but charge extra and say "its only abit extra" but it isnt correct in our minds. The food portions where very generous and the food was hot, that coupled with good service is a posative but the negative part of the overall experiance left a bad taste in our mouths. I would suggest you bring your online menu up to date and the prices. UPDATE Very quickly had a reply from Hawkins Arms and have to thank you for the kind gesture. Sorry to find out your website was hacked it would have put a differant light on how we felt had that been explained, sincerly hope that for your benefit you dont have that problem again. Still stand by the fact the food and service was good. Thankyou and good luck for the future.

Popped in mid week , quiz night ! Was very busy and buzzing .

Ordered a fish finger sandwich but was most disappointed. Cheap basic sliced white bread, 6 very cheap fish fingers (more breadcrumbs than fish and what fish there was, was grey and tasteless) and a tough lettuce leaf. Served with half a dozen crisps and a tiny amount of salad, inedible because of the dressing it was smothered in. Certainly not worth £8.95!

Nice lunch time food options. Lovely cheese and ham omelette. Cloudy Lemon infused Thatchers cider was a hit on a hot day out in the beer garden too. Young man serving was very polite and attentive. Good experience.

Fantastic place to eat. Food was lovely and a hefty portion as well. The owners were really friendly and welcoming. Even made our two dogs very welcome. Would highly recommend

Top garden! Lovely drinks and foods!

Fab food & lovely atmosphere,would recommend :-) ...........

Great experience, a real village pub.

Had a family meal. Food was good. Atmosphere was also nice. Definitely be coming again

Great fish and chips today, as the Friday special.

Graham is a lovely host. Great pub food

Fantastic staff, fantastic food and fantastic atmosphere

Good choice of beers and the food is good value for the money

Warm friendly atmosphere great for a Sunday Roast

What a fabulous pub. Great to see it so busy. Locals enjoying a good pint. The food looked delicious too. I will be back

Lovely food, great place and very dog friendly x

Fantastic new Tennents. We really enjoy a pint there .

It was a very enjoyable meal, my husband and daughter enjoyed their soup

Just had the best Sunday lunch I have had in years will definitely be going back

Very pleasant place, lager was crisp and clean very welcoming

I dropped in near the end of a days walking and was warmly welcomed by the landlady who kindly filed my water bottles and let me charge my phone for a quick half hour boost. I enjoyed a leisurely half of Proper Job an pleasant chat with some locals. I would be happy to recommend this pub.

Great food Lovely staff Highly recommended

Called in for lunch. A limited choice but good.

My local pub,excellent food and very friendly.

Absolutely brilliant, and the staff went the extra mile. I don't think you will be disappointed, fully recommended.

Popped in on a sunny Sunday afternoon to see if they may do gluten free meals, wow had some fabulous fish and chips. Thank you very much, made my day 😃

Great place to visit. ..the beer was supreme quality...a must visit if your in the area

Excellent Sunday lunch Cornish beer

Booked for an evening meal and really enjoyed it. The food was lovely and the bar staff were very friendly. We met the owners who were a lovely couple and they made us feel right at home.

Nice atmosphere with friendly staff. I enjoyed the Halloumi burger

It's a pretty basic local pub really. Pleasant staff... food was good value and very nice. Was meeting an old acquaintance mid distance and this place was right in the middle... it was the perfect place for a catch up a pint and a nice meal. Would use again.

Nice food and good entertainment for our first night out in over 2 years.

Worth the detour off the A390 for a friendly welcome from a great little pub and staff.

Fantastic place, lovely warming welcome from the staff and owner. Definitely go again.

Nice and warm on a very cold evening, nice atmosphere, great pint of Guinness.

Really lovely food, friendly and helpful staff, and a warm atmosphere.

Lovely pub inside and out, but the vegetarian pizza almost certainly looked like a freezer bag of mixed veg, carrots peas and broad beans?..

More menu selection! Wine nice!

Super friendly and welcoming So glad we visited, is a lovely place for drinks or dinner. Large garden for kids to run in and a cosy indoors. We were made to feel welcomed, considering we had a 1yr, 4yr and 5yr old we were still made to feel at home. Thank you!

Great local pub friendly staff good food and friendly locals made for a great evening

Our first visit was for a Sunday Roast, we found it welcoming and the food ok. We rebooked for a Friday evening dinner visit and could not be more disappointed! First we found that indoors was closed and only serving outside in garden. We waited 30 minutes for our drinks and they got the order wrong and the waitress implied that it was our fault for confusing her. Another long wait for the food of which 5 meals were good but the lasagne was pretty much inedible and burnt to a solid lump. When it was returned we were told that we couldn't have a refund as the owner was absent but a free drink was offered against the meal cost. Offer was declined!

Nice pub in Probus, good selection of beers and very friendly staff.

Lovely friendly pub. Good value honest food

The manager was helpful and friendly and so were the staff. Pleasant outdoor area to sit in. Covid compliant.

Excellent service very helpful stafg

Great local pub, staff are fantastic nothing is too much trouble. Took friends there from up country and they loved it. Dogs are welcome

Really good sized portions and such delicious food! Would definitely go back

We have been here many times and have been enjoiying the service, the drink and the food. Will be back again nd would definitely reccomend!

Very nice "but" vegetable pizza was a first time experience (carrots and peas) no peppers or olives, but I ate it so couldn't have been bad 😊

Lovely admosfare!really enjoyed

Best roast potatoes, fantastic staff, great garden. Love this place, definitely worth going. ❤️

Friendly welcome. Good choice of pub grub. Beer in good condition. Not sure my table was 2m apart from next guest but otherwise felt safe.

Lovely local pub. Pete and Anne Marie are excellent Landlords. They make a huge effort to speak to their customers. Special events are often organised. Love their Sunday roast.

Very good clean pub,Staff very polite just a short visit but will be back shortly

Lovely warm welcome and good service. Great food. Felt that good social safety measures were put in place

Only experience the outdoor garden. Friendly and relaxed staff.

The staff are amazing, we found it impossible to get a reservation anywhere in Cornwall, so glad we found this gem. Currently seating is outside in the garden so you will have to brave the elements, but the team and the food definitely make up for it. The moules mariniere were so good and a really good size, the T bone steak was more than enough. This place is definitely worth a visit.

Decided to venture out to local pub - first time since I know what - anyway pub closed but able to use garden for refreshments - very enjoyable - hopefully opening next week etc. Will return

pleasant little pub with nice food

Lovely staff and good selection of beers! Food on the more expensive side and lacking for vegetarian options but rest of our family said the roast was lovely!

Was told when ordering that Saturday was curry night. £20 per person but included a carrif of wine. Three small dishes arrived with rice, meat curry and third with curry potato ans a few prawns. Poppadoms with pickles 2 small pieces of nambread and onion bhaji. Very small portions for 2 people and definitely not value for money. Having said that staff were friendly and service was good as we were in a hurry

A proper pub where you can meet friends for a drink. Quiz night on Mondays. Various events organised (day at the races in March). The best thing however is the food prepared by the chef Angus. One of the best pub restaurants in Cornwall. You can also have bar food. Such a brilliant friendly pub hosted by Peter and Anne-Marie and set in a brilliant friendly village.

We felt we in the way today! Not being local (Par and Redruth) didn't know meals were not available...crisps were 'ansom!

Amazing food, amazing service, top rated pub

Lovely cornish village pub. Welcoming staff and great food and drinks offer. Well worth a visit when the A390 has taken its toll!

Good beer, made to feel very welcome. Great

Just popped in here last Saturday for a bit of lunch, very friendly welcome, cosy warm fire, good beer and lovely soup and bread. What more could you want. Oh and nice loos! 5 stars! :)

Delicious food. Ample parking. Nice friendly staff. Recommended.

Very friendly, traditional pub with excellent food

Nice to see it busy. Long may it last. Good luck to Peter and Anne-Marie

TRIP ADVISOR needs to change the introductory pictures, the atmosphere is so different and the new tenants need to be congratulated in thier choice of decor. The food is good and it has been known to be crowded over the recent weekend. Well done Probus.

Much improved change of decor, good chef nice polite new couple. A breath of fresh air!

Came for a Sunday lunch, this is a hidden gem with the most amazing food and service. Can't recommend this place highly enough. The amount of effort the chef has put into preparation and cooking would put most high end restaurants to shame. Everything locally sourced perfectly cooked vegetables and lamb that melts in the mouth.

Great food lovely staff and service

Excellent...friendly welcome and the best food for miles around

We all enjoyed our beer and food very much. Thank you.

Great food, and a really friendly welcome and service.

Great friendly pub with excellent entertainment
