Nipped in for a drink on Sunday evening on our walk home. We had a cocktail each. We had a choice where to sit on some comfy sofas. We ordered and paid at the bar and drinks were brought over to the table. Nice decor and fits with the theme. Good atmosphere. My cocktail was good (creamy one) , my husband was not as impressed with his.

Happened up on this place earlier this year we happened to walk in off the street as we were starving and wanted to try somewhere new. We hadn't booked or heard anything about it, luckily they squeezed us in as only 2 of us. Oh my word the food is delicious and amazingly presented as well as large portions. The kitchen is open plan so you can see the food cooked and it helps decide what you want. I can't speak highly enough of the staff the waiting staff and the kitchen staff. It's definitely our favourite place to eat in Newquay as we've been back but booked. We weren't disappointed, they even moved us to another table as I couldn't sit comfortably on the seats that we had. We will be back and know to book in advancr 😊

This is exactly how drinks should be done, crafted with care, presented beautifully, looked amazing and tasted great. When the food arrived it looked great and tasted even better!

Fave place to eat in Newquay for meat! Massive inside, nice chilled atmosphere, great choice of music playing in the background, friendly staff. The starters were bought out quickly, hot and delicious! Our mains were the same! The burger was really tasty and great value for money, the portion sizes were generous too. The beef was thoroughly enjoyed and cooked really well! The dessert was really nice! Highly recommend visiting this place for food, it's the second time we've been and never been disappointed yet!

We had Sunday lunch here and it was really good. We both chose the pork belly and it was a substantial slab of well cooked meat with lovely crackling. Veg and Yorkshire puddings and gravy were all really good. My only slight quibble is that the roast potatoes were a bit tough. But that is minor and I would absolutely go back if we visit Newquay again.

We visited on Saturday night at 5.30, unfortunately it took ages to be greeted. The service was then slow to take orders and the food took one hour to come. It was average unfortunately. The meat was dry and tough rather than fall off the bone. The burnt end beans had fatty cut offs from other meats in there. The squid was a side size rather than a started. Charlestown was brilliant when we visited, unfortunately this was average and we wouldn't return

This place is an amazing find in Cornwall. My partner had the fried chicken burger and I had the brisket. Both were amazing. The chicken burger was light and refreshing (I think there was maybe some lemon grass in the slaw, whatever it was it was very good). The brisket was to die for - the mash was cheesy, creamy and smooth. The coleslaw was good, I don’t like it overly wet so it was perfect for me. The chips were also very very nice. The squid on the starter menu was lovely, not rubbery at all. The cocktail menu is very impressive and each one tasted really good. The service was lovely, waitresses were friendly and chatty. The restaurant also has a lovely feel to it. Would 100% recommend.

Experience started well, seated quickly after booking a table, staff were friendly and efficient, the starters were 10/10 halloumi and prawns - delicious! Ordered beef brisket and beef short rib - disappointing to say the least. The brisket was chewy and stringy and you only got 2 slices. The beef short rib - the most expensive thing on the menu at £22 was fatty, the meat was chewy and not tender and everything was swimming in crispy onions - I love these as much as the next person but it was all over the meat and mash and it was all you could taste initially. This place has a lovely atmosphere and such potential but I feel is overpriced for the quality of food we received.

I must say we were really looking forward to eating there. We stayed In Newquay for 4 nights and this was going to be our last meal . Website looks amazing and we just wanted to have a good BBQstyle Meal . When we got there on 30th August it was about 5:30 pm , Friday evening . We were told our table Was ready , when we got to the table was dirty and sticky and waitresses were surprised to learn about that. Restaurant was very quiet and looked dirty. We should have left at that point but have decided to give it a benefit of a doubt. Ordered our starter and mains. Started arrived so quick almost like it came out of microwave . Quality was poor and mine was cold. Main we had Meals From the smoker apparently but I think going to Wetherspoons would have been better . Also main arrived on cheap stainless steel trays which were very uncomfortable to eat from and not very nice experience.

Food we were here served can only be described as terrible. Would have given a 1 for the food except the staff were friendly so upgraded to a generous 2. I ordered the southern fried monkfish stack which arrived with a soggy bun and water literally dripping from it. Not very appetising. The stack was mainly bap and lettuce. I have to confess the mash was tasty although doesn’t look very appealing. I never tried the coleslaw as looked like it had been sitting out all day. The kids crispy nuggets is more like 5 pieces of popcorn chicken. Son had eaten them all in under a minute. He also enjoyed the mash to be fair. Service was ok but nothing special. As mentioned, the staff were pleasant enough. Wasn’t busy so no excuse for serving poor food. You don’t go to a restaurant to enjoy a small bowl of mash. Very unsatisfying experience in general.

During our recent visit to Newquay, Cornwall, we had the pleasure of dining at Rebellion Restaurant, and it turned out to be a fantastic experience for our family. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly and polite staff, who made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was lively yet cosy, creating the perfect setting for a family meal. The decor had a modern edge, with just the right amount of charm to make it inviting without being overwhelming. It's clear that a lot of thought has gone into making the space comfortable and appealing for all ages. As for the food, it was nothing short of excellent. We ordered a variety of dishes, including a classic burger and fries, succulent beef brisket, and deliciously tender pork belly. Each dish was cooked to perfection, with flavours that were rich and satisfying. The burger was juicy and well-seasoned, paired with crispy fries that were impossible to resist. The beef brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender, with a smoky flavour that highlighted the quality of the meat. The pork belly was equally impressive, with a perfect balance of crispy skin and tender, flavourful meat. The service was exemplary throughout our meal. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, ensuring that we had everything we needed while allowing us to enjoy our meal at our own pace. They were especially accommodating to our young family, making sure that everyone felt comfortable and well taken care of. Overall, we left Rebellion Restaurant very satisfied and with full bellies. It's a place that not only delivers on great food but also excels in creating a welcoming and enjoyable dining experience. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Newquay, whether you're looking for a family-friendly spot or just a great meal in a fantastic setting. We'll definitely be returning on our next trip to Cornwall!

First time at rebellion in newquay despite being a local! So glad we decided to try some where new rather than our usual spots. ☺️ For starters I had the crispy beef which I'd never tried before and my partner had the hallumi. They were both very nice, but I personally struggled to eat all the crispy beef as was quite a large portion. For mains, I had the steak and my partner and the burger. I was very happy and impressed with my steak, perfectly medium rare!😋 and my partner loved his pulled pork burger, flavours on point! The service was a good, and the waitresses were lovely. Unfortunately the table next to us were quite grumpy and rude to the waitress always finding a problem with something, which resulted in them pointing at and talking about my food. Which made me quite uncomfortable. However the waitress did apologise even though their behaviour was not her fault, and we made light of it. We are definitely coming back, when silly season is over 😂

This review is really frustrating for me to write, because I really wanted to like this place. I came here with my family for dinner, booking a table here is fairly easy and it does get quite packed so it’s well recommended if you wanna avoid disappointment. We were seated at our table, and we ordered our drinks as well as our mains. Now fair enough the restaurant was fairly busy, but that is no excuse for making mistakes such as bringing the wrong drinks or forgetting our order, meaning we had to order our drinks and our entire starters and mains all over again. And it doesn’t seem like this was an isolated incident with us, as I heard another table nearby us was complaining to one of the staff members, who I will give credit to was very professional about the criticism. Once our food arrived, the starters were nice, item such as the fried pickles and the squid bites are nice appetisers that will get you prepped up for your main without filling you up before you eat it! However, the mains I’m sorry to say are average at best. I ordered a chicken snack burger which was smothered in oil, I mean I took one bite of it and the oil practically started pouring out. Makes eating it a very messy affair. Also for the money you spend on them, the quality you get I’m sorry to say, I just don’t think it equates to it. I didn’t order an alcoholic drink, but my relatives who did say they were nice and they are admittedly worth the money you spend on them. Atmosphere wise it’s nice in there, it’s like a proper steakhouse vibe so on that point they’ve got spot on. But I feel like the staff in there aren’t supported as much as it’s clear they seemed kind of overwhelmed by the busyness of the restaurant, which probably led to the mistakes that happened that night. I would hope to one-day visit this place again, because I really did want to like this place, and the service wasn’t that bad it just needs a bit of work.

We started with cocktails and they were incredible, although it was very difficult to pick from as every one sounded amazing. . The beef brisket was difficult to even pick up as it was so perfectly cooked. The mash was out of this world and the crispy onions added so much more to them. Words cannot do justice to the bbq gravy. My partner had the bbq monkfish and fries. The fries were crisp and delicious and unfortunately, some of these made their way onto my plate! The monkfish fell apart and was soon demolished. The baked cheesecake was so sweet and a perfect way to end a perfect dining experience. The staff were attentive but not intrusive and made us feel very welcome.

My friends and I all met through working in a restaurant, so every few months we meet up and try somewhere new for dinner. We arrived at 8pm and ordered 20 mins later but felt a bit rushed as the waitress was hovering over us telling us the kitchen closes at 9. I’d been recommended by a coworker as we had decided to try Newquay for a change and they said they had a superb menu and cocktail list - we love a good cocktail so we’re very keen! I chose a Bloody Mary as it’s my fav and the menu looked like they knew what they were doing - only for a mug with ice, vodka and tomato juice with a dodgy bit of lemon poking out of the top of it! I mentioned to the waitress that I thought it wasn’t quite right so she took back up to the bar and then brought it right back and said that’s how it was served and they didn’t have any garnishes for it. I was obviously displeased so she suggested I order a ‘Zombie’ next and then walked off! Decided I was lumbered with this and took a sip to discover it was overly spiced and tasted disgusting so just drank a glass of water with my meal. Luckily my friends had passable cocktails but they were all fruity with pretty garnishes which made mine look even more drab in comparison. The food might I add, was blimming incredible! The buttermilk chicken burger with fries and slaw and all the sauces was delicious and well cooked, the lamb burger was to die for and my friend who’d had a big lunch had a pudding of cheese cake which she was going on about for ages! We all agreed it was worth it just for the food! Towards the end of our meal the waitress popped up repeatedly again, asking if we were done and then started clearing my plate away whilst I was still chewing!! We tried to see the funny side but honestly I’ve never experienced anything like it! We were then left for a while whilst the waitresses gossiped in the corner which was kind of weird considering how quickly they wanted us cleared out. We asked for the bill and then were told we were ‘clever’ for being able to work out our own individual bills by the waitress, which we didn’t really find funny and actually found kind of rude and condescending. We ended up going up to the till to have the waitress then point out for each of our transactions the option of adding a gratuity, with a big grin and hopefully smile. We all declined. Having worked in hospitality we all carry £5 -£10 in cash each, as a standard tip and had expected to have more than one cocktail or more puds but the service made us feel like we weren’t welcome. This was the first time not one of us wanted to leave a tip. And the moody face the waitress pulled when she saw each of us decline tipping only made us less willing to leave something, which was a such a shame as the food really was phenomenal. My apologies to the chefs.

First time here as on a mini break. I had catch of the day (sea bass), son had a chicken stack burger, partner had the beef rib. We all enjoyed our food, I thought the fish was done very well and would love to come back if I get the opportunity again. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the lay out/atmosphere was very nice.

Wow. Amazing food. Lovely staff. Great cocktails. Definitely worth a visit. I had the Pork Belly. The crackling was to perfect. The meal so tasty. Photos don't give the food justice, that I've loaded, but thought would share. The Thai sauce was divine.

We were in Newquay for 5 days and we visited Rebellion for 2 of those. Staff were extremely welcoming and pleasant. The food was absolutely delicious on both occasions. I had char su pork belly and my partner had a chowder special, and smoked sausage. Our plates were cleared. Highly recommended.

Pleasant atmosphere, good service and traditional Guinness to accompany it. We opted for the Sirloin Steak and Smoked Pulled Pork accompanied by potatoes. Both dishes were very good and were well served. The menu features several meat options. A good option in Newquay.

Ate here for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. Staff were all fantastic and couldn't be more helpful if they tried. My son is coeliac and this was no problem for them. If we return to Newquay then we will definitely be back 🙂

10 minutes waiting to be seated then waited 20 minutes and finally got up and left, didn't get offered a drink was told it was table service the menu looked good and the food going out looked good but couldn't tell you how it tatsed if you seat someone standard practice is to ask if they would like a drink not just walk away also they wasn't busy so God help them when they are.

I recently ate at rebellion and it was amazing! The pulled pork stack was spot on. The tomahawk was delicious too. The staff were super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The cocktails were fantastic, especially the mad hatters mojito. Definitely a place to check out if you want great food and drinks!

Really disappointed with the standard of food and service we received. Firstly we were waiting 35 minutes for our drinks for them to Come back to the table and said they forgot the order so we needed to order again, waiting another 10 minutes. The starter's were served different to what was stated on the menu and the excuse we got was that the menu had been changed but there was no apology or replacement. The mains were missing items and not at all what we’d were expecting at all especially for the price of everything. The waitress and what I guess is the manager had no care in the world and had faces like thunder. One waitress was even rolling a cigarette right in front of us while we were eating mains. As locals it has put us off coming back. Even when we mentioned it there was no sorry and no compensation whatsoever, they were not bother at all. Disappointed is an understatement.

I must confess, my feelings on this particular visit were more mixed than a hobbit's breakfast on an empty pantry day. Upon my arrival, the staff seemed as uncertain as a dwarf in an elf's garden about finding me a table, but thankfully, they did. Seated at last, my thoughts turned eagerly to a refreshing drink. Alas, the menu stared back at me for what felt like the length of two elevenses, as no one came to take my order. Realizing that a food order was being handled at the bar, I trudged over, asking for cider and food, only to be directed to wait for the colleague who manages both food and drink orders. The drink maker seemed as slow as an ent's storytelling and the only one that day to be handling the drinks. After standing behind another patron—who, by the way, was ordering for an outside table—I attempted to place my order. The waitress, however, sent me back to my inside table with promises to come and take my order there. On my way back, I saw what seemed to be a pint of cider, only to be told it wasn’t mine, and mine would take a long while longer. Back at my table, doubts began to creep in about ever seeing that cider. Finally, the waitress arrived and took my order: halloumi fries, beef brisket with chips, and the long-awaited pint of cider. Other waitresses buzzed about like bees in a clover patch, delivering food and drink, yet my pint remained a distant dream. The kitchen, in full view, was a marvel. The head chef was like a wizard casting spell after spell, producing delicious-looking meals with ease. My food arrived promptly, a shining tribute to the chef's skill and the waitress's efficiency. But still, no drink for this thirsty hobbit. I watched the drink maker, with the patience of a tree root, complete many orders of 5 and 6 drinks, but not mine. By the time my cider finally arrived, I had finished my halloumi fries and was halfway through my beef brisket. The long wait cast a shadow over my otherwise delightful meal. Had I known, I would have delayed my food order, preferring to savor a drink before starting my feast. Despite the wait, the food was a triumph. The halloumi fries were thick and golden, the beef brisket tender and succulent, and even the chips—typically not my favorite—were crisp and tasty. The waitress jested about me leaving some, but I nearly devoured the lot. In conclusion, the food and cider at Rebellion Roast House were as splendid as a Shire harvest festival, and some of the staff were as friendly as a warm hearth. Yet, the sluggish drink service was a disappointment, especially for a lone hobbit seeking solace in a pint. While the positives were plenty, this flaw prevents me from giving a perfect rating.

Buttermilk chicken burger was delicious & my partner had Sunday pork roast, the only disappointing thing was that their Sunday menu which they have on their website has clearly not been updated as when we were given the paper version in the restaurant there was a few dishes missing, but overall had a good experience. See you guys soon :)

This place is incredible! Honestly, the Brisket barely required a fork let alone a knife! The Chips and some their gravy was soooo good. Also, try the coleslaw! The cheese cake was amazing. Best part of all was the service folks and the cook. Totally top drawer!!💯

Was here on a Saturday for my mum's birthday, food was perfect! Our server, Lazlo was great! The overly drunk stag do made for an interesting challenge for the kitchen and wait staff but they handled it well, delivering a great, professional service that we were very happy with!

It was our first time dining at Rebellion and it will most certainly be our last. Although the waiting staff were quick to move us away from a leary stag party on the next table, it was unfortunately not enough to compensate for the poor service. After waiting 2 hours for food it was pretty much impossible to turn our opinion of this restaurant around. The service was so poor, we even served our own drinks that had been left at the bar... twice! Maybe we caught it on a bad night, but what is for sure, is the staff working at the resturant had no sense of urgency.

Took 20 mins to get 3 drinks - they weren’t cheap either …… wasn’t busy no real excuse to be honest. Pity we would have had food there but it put us off.

We had 6 meals for a birthday and all were very low standard We have been going here as locals ever since it opened and has always been good, not this time. The chicken on the chicken burgers was stuff you would get in the frozen section in Aldi and warmed up. The pulled pork burger was just sloppy pulled pork on a bap which went soggy and the beef brisket bland fatty and bland. We mentioned it to the waitress and she informed us that they had got a new head chef who’s re done the menu. We will never go back there again, shocking

Great welcome and some amazing fish overlooking the harbour. Some delectable wines and amazing Cornish Gin. The grilled scallops simply the best and the Newlyn Crab quite perfect. Do not forget the desserts-the Fig Tart with Rum Raisins tasted out of this world just beaten into second place by the Pavlova. The staff really cared and with a small number of covers allowed for really effective delivery of fresh and well cooked food delivered to the table with perfect timing. Argoe deserves to star in Penryn.

Wonderful visit again. Here for our annual visit and still as consistent as ever. This time we visited twice, midweek and for the sunday feast - and what a feast it was! From the moment you enter Sophie makes you feel right at home and explains the menu perfectly. Small and sharing plates means you can have a taste of everything. The music playlist is that good we asked for it. A must visit for us each time we are here and will be back next time. Thank you for a great experience. How hospitality should be. 10/10.
