I made a booking for 5.30pm on Christmas Eve . We had been caught up in traffic and to make sure we arrived in time bracket I telephoned the Meadery at 5.20pm to say we were just down the road and on our way. I was told that we had missed our booked table time so was given to someone else. I told the female on the phone that our booking was fir 5.30pm and was just 5.30pm. She told me it was for 5pm , I told her I made the booking for 5.30pm and was told I made it for 5pm. On arriving back home I checked the booking confirmation which stated the 5.30pm time and sent a copy to the Meadery. Awaiting an apology but know I won't get one. Over the last 30 years we have been a very good customer to the eatery but will nit be using them again. This was our Christmas Eve treat, very disappointed with the service. Can't leave any other feedback because we didn't get inside the door to try ! I have since had a reply from the Meadery. I quickly checked that our confirmation had been accepted BUT read that our table was available for when they opened at 5pm was stating their opening times. If I had read this differently I would had realised the time had changed we had , had a busy day visiting family . We are a local CORNISH family and only wished to renew old memories. We rang out of courtesy so they new we were going to turn up but could had been there for the 5pm time and were very disappointed. The Meadery soon filled the table so happy that they were not left out of pocket . Hapoy New Year to the Meadery and hope they have a prosperous 2025.

Our club had its Christmas meal at the meadery. Brilliant. Fabulous surroundings, friendly, helpful staff giving excellent service and such a lovely informal and relaxed atmosphere. Food was great too,not to mention the fruit mead I can honestly say that it was the best Christmas do that l have ever attended. A thoroughly enjoyable experience which l would recommend to anyone.

Really good service and food and atmosphere, yes at a first glance the price may look a little bit more than you thought it would be but trust me it definitely is worth the money when you see the food and the portion sizes. Definitely recommended if your in Redruth or the area, only pick up if any and I can say this about 90% of places in Cornwall and that's the parking as you have to try and find somewhere on the main road.

Redruth Meadery, on Friday 6th September. It was for my Daughter’s birthday, I live in Spain and was here for a family bereavement, my granddaughter also came, making it a nice night out. We got a sitter for my 2 grandchildren, and booked the table for 6:45, to ensure we would not be too late back to them. We ordered our food at 6:58, we had our drinks brought to us, followed by the starters within 15 minutes. It was well over 30 minutes before the table was cleared. We were noticing that other customers were receiving their food who came in after us. At 7:50 I spoke with a waitress regarding the food and she informed me she would speak to the kitchen. At 8:15 still no food and even more no update from the waitress which was not really acceptable. So then I had to make my way down the stairs, which to be honest was not good, due to a recent fall and operation, I require a stick most of the time. Found the Manager Emily out the front of the building having a cigarette, which considering she knew how busy it was, as she kept saying to me. Well I informed her about how long we had been waiting now and was quite unacceptable. She then went off to the kitchen while I made my way back upstairs, and the waitress was then serving our food. The manager Emily made her way to us to say ‘oh you have your food I see’, She then decided to go into saying about how busy it was, and the wait was totally acceptable, which I responded to say that 1 hour and 30 minutes, is really ridiculous! She was very rude and actually arguing whilst we were trying to eat our food as we were conscious of the time. The e food was lovely as normal, we do go quite often. When we made our way down the stairs to pay the bill, the so called Manager just put it down on the counter without any apologies, never even had courtesy to give an explanation. I went on to actually say to her about the poor service tonight and was she going to apologize or offer any good will gesture. She literally just said ‘No’, and I have to say it was like speaking to a rock, she was very hard and harsh. Having worked within the Customer Service industry for many years and having a degree to back it up, have never come across such behavior.

Great place with a great theme, more or less all the way through. Food was good, but dessert did seem very 'bought in bulk'. Never had mead before and was great that you could buy small tasters. Cherry mean is VERY sweet BTW! Main course was very tasty, and for me, the steak was perfect. Would've loved to have seen the theme passed down through the food, like perhaps an all you can eat medieval banquet! ☺ Overall, a great place I would visit again should I be in Cornwall again.

Visited with my mum for a Friday night meal as a treat. The staff were really welcoming and friendly and especially Leah. Food was quick and hot and really was just a nice atmosphere and great place for everyone. There were other people there who had to Wait a bit longer for food as they had a big table in of 20 but they still went over and made sure everyone was ok and had there food after there waits but this is expected in peak Holiday season in Cornwall. Definitely a must visit when in Cornwall if thinking of a place with authentic atmosphere and lush food.

I hate that I have to say this, but we visited this weekend and were seriously disappointed with the quality of the food. When you go to the meadery, you’re not expecting haute cuisine, but soggy chips and just generally uninspiring food all around. Even the bought-in death by chocolate was somehow dry and seemed to be a much smaller portion than I remember! It wasn’t helped by the curtains blocking the sun which were hanging half open, just enough so that the sun was blinding two people on our table while the rest of us sat in near-darkness. The young team of staff did their best, but I’m not sure they wanted to be there anymore than we did.

Have been going here for more than 20 years, though not been for many years recently. The food was still good, though far too much and a lot of waste. The service was very below average. The waitresses were very blunt and quite rude. Certainly no service with a smile. Service rushed and were out again by 8pm. Will have to think long and hard before going back again

Booked here as came highly recommended by several friends , we also invited some friends to join us for the evening, however the experience did not get off to a good start when I ordered a pint of bitter shandy & was brought a pint of bitter in a pint glass & a half of lemonade in a separate glass to mix my own..was not expecting that...our 4 main meals took over a hour to arrive, which really is unacceptable seemed to have inexperienced staff & very short staffed. Out of 4 meals ...3 were terrible. 2 rump steaks ordered both were very tough & could not eat , mushrooms deep fried over cooked & full of fat dripping out of them....peppercorn sauce was forgotten had to ask for it again that arrived so thick it would not tip out little jug onto the steak, scampi was very poor cheap quailty & completely tasteless. The lasagne was homemade & enjoyed, so 3 disappointing meals out of 4, felt very embarrassed that we invited our friends out & they had such a awful disappointing meals overall a disastrous evening..so sadly won't be returning or recomending to anyone.

I have been eating at the Meadery for over 30 years and as a family we love eating there apart from tonight……. We arrived as a family of 5 including a 2 year old, we had our starter and after waiting for a long time we were told the chicken was delayed and would be at least another 20 minutes, eventually when the food did arrive the night was already ruined as our 2 year old had already lost his patience and we all wanted to go home, my chicken was not the usual crispy Meadery chicken, it was slimy and looked like they had forgotten to actually fry it, I ate very little and complained to one of the staff, she phoned the owner who explained our time to complain was when the staff asked if our food was ok, I explained they hadn’t asked and she said the staff had stated they had, it felt like reluctantly my one course was refunded, unapologetic staff , poor food and poor service means after 30 years of eating at the meadery this will be the last

Good mead, nice authentic feel to the place but a 45 minute to an hour wait time on food as a bit much. Seemed understaffed as could see the staff on were struggling to keep up with what was going on. Ribs were not good as were really chewy (so probs frozen and quickly cooked). But the fried chicken was pretty good so we shared that instead of the ribs. All in all an okay place, just needs some work

A very mixed bag during my visit, really. Upon booking a table we were told they close at 9pm, so we booked earlier than we planned, ending up arriving at 1930. Our table was not ready at this time, so we had to wait a few minutes to be seated. We sat and someone arrived to take our drinks order despite still waiting for two late arrivals, so we asked the waitress to come back once everyone had arrived. They ended up not coming back for drinks orders until 1955, which meant we had an hour to order and eat our food (we were a table of 9!) - which I presume was the reason why we were asked for a dessert order before we had even had starters! We said we did not know and to ask again after the main meal. Our table water and glasses were all dumped at the corner of the table next to me, meaning I was the one serving the table their glasses and water not the waitress as it should have been. The food is clearly deep fried from frozen because one batch of breaded mushrooms was stone cold in the middle - although these were replaced quickly and without any fuss. All other starters were fine. The main meals were generously portioned cooked well, and the chicken skin was incredibly crispy and tasty. Unfortunately, the offer of dessert was not given again. This isn't the first time I've been here, and this time unfortunately the service levels have fallen right off. The food itself was great (other than the mushroom saga) but I feel like the staff members are all too inexperienced (they were all incredibly young) and it really shows.

We found the whole experience unpleasant, everything you touch was either sticky or greasy, seating was very small for 5 adults and extremely hard. Their original business model is pile it high and sell it cheap. Not for me I'm afraid.

We booked for 5 people and were seated in a booth just big enough for 4. It was obvious that it was 'tight' but instead of moving us to the bigger booty next to us, they sat a couple in there. The waiter was very pleasant but seemed unfamiliar with the ordering system and got part of the order wrong. This was sorted when we paid. The salad, which is an extra charge and not explained at the time of ordering, was disappointing. The rest of the meal was fine. More could be done with the tables and food service to make it a meadery rather than an ex church with a few flags and plaques. Parking is difficult too.

Food was good. Service was great, and Atmosphere and theming was amazing. Found on Google when looking for somewhere to purchase Mead, we had to drove through redruth to get home from Lands End. Without paying too much attention I began our journey. Redruth Meadery did not disapoint. The medieval theming and vibe is spot on. A bustling busy resturuant that felt like stepping back in time. We were greeted in a friendly maner and were given somewhere to sit dispite not having a booking and also having a pushchair. We were sat down very quickly. Service was friendly and snappy. Our waitress took our order and drinks arrived in no time at all. Food soon followed. Food was good, adequate and satisfactory. Not fine dining by any means but delicious and generously portioned I had the Fried chicken with chips and salad my wife had the scampi. A highlight was the selection of mead, a tasting board was had. And when the hubub and noise of the other diners occasionall lulled down you could here the medoeval background music. Overall I had great time. I would definately return again and really recommend Redruth Meadery for the whole family. Definately book ahead so you dont get disapointed.

My parents enjoyed their food, and we were pleasantly surprised by the vegan options.. very tasty. However It was way too hot upstairs and no air flow, made worse by not being offered any additional drinks to the ones we ordered with our meal. We were given our food, mum asked for an extra plate.. we didn't see a waitress after this and didn't get the plate, weren't offered desserts or anymore drinks. Was nice but the service just fell a bit short.... The staff were NICE just didn't see them enough..

Fantastic place, that my family have visited on trips to visit our Cornish family over the years. I It certainly has a big element of authenticity about it , with parts of the menu ie the choice of meads and chicken in thr rough dish to the historic origin of the restraunt . But certainly it keeps upto date with more modern things such as onion rings and missisipi mud pie. Atmosphere was very pleasant, very authentic feel with the medieval interior which I got the impression was close to the original . Staff are helpful , very pleasant and attentive . Would definitely reccomend, and will be back.

Rocky toffee afters was incredibly sweet, which was what I wanted :) Service was good, mead was delicious. Friendly staff. Good giggle with the lady while paying and they were very appreciative of our tip. Great experience. Yes it's not the most modern venue but they are recreating a medieval era dining experience. Anything ultra modern would look out of place. Tremendous amount of food. My friend's Scampi was piled very high! Toilet was clean when I visited too. Will be back to this meadery.

Visited here with friend recently. First impressions were disappointing with the restaurant entrance looking very tired. Things didn’t get much better once inside, the service was ok, atmosphere in the restaurant was flat and food quality very average. Menu said they pride themselves on locally sourced fresh food, to me it felt as if it was more of the pre prepared frozen variety. I also think it would be much more hygienic if they provided each person on the table with a finger cleaning bowl, not just one for everyone. If you want the kind of food offered here I think you would be better off heading to your local cheap and cheerful chain such as Wetherspoons. You will save yourself some money and probably enjoy a more tasty meal. I think the meadery was probably a really fun restaurant once upon a time, however I feel like it needs a bit of a revamp to compete with the ever growing crop of quality Cornish eateries popping up all over the county.

Lovely surprise party for my husband. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. However, we had over an hours wait for our food from the order being taken, and only half of the meals came out. It was then a further half hour before the rest of the party of 17 meals came out. When paying our bill, I was told the wait with the meals was due to an accident in the kitchen. None of the waiting staff relayed that information to us, and no real apology or jester of goodwill was offered. The food was lovely, and we all love a good family get-together at the meadery. It's been many years since I had last been, as we had been living out the county. So yes, we'll go back. Hopefully, the staff will be better trained and the chef is ok after the accident. One question: What happened to the small salad garnishes? The leaf of lettuce, slice of cucumber, and slice of tomato? I know it's only a little thing, but the plates looked like they were missing something 😕

It was a busy Friday night, so very noisy ...it made it incredibly difficult to hear the waitresses and hear conversations!! But I guess that reflects the reality of medieval banquets. I enjoyed the night and would visit again for a hearty meal.

Lovely food, massive portions, its ashame they don't do half and half on the chips/ salad as the meals are to large for me, but value for money. Will go again.

Just spent an absolutely wonderful evening at the Redruth Meadery! The staff are amazing and extremely polite. We had a slight issue with a steak being overcooked, it was sorted very quickly and staff came to check that it had been cooked correctly the second time! Food was fantastic and very well priced. We got sent home with any leftover food and the desserts we desperately wanted (one of which was on the house due to the steak issue) we haven't managed them yet but im sure they're as good as the look! Thank you to all the wonderful staff, myself and my wife will certainly be visiting again!

Not been for a few years but wanted something different for a birthday meal treat. Sunday night, just walked in and ordered a takeaway. Friendly staff as I remember and even told me about the app so can order in advance and arrange a collection time (nice to know). Didn't have to wait long for my order (5 adult meals (Chicken in the rough, Scampi and Jalapeño bites) plus a couple of sides). The extra sauces were kept out of the bags so they didn't get squashed (nice touch). Got the food home and everything piping hot and fresh. Amazing portion sizes and tasted amazing. Thanks guys and gals...was an amazing meal.

Booked the meadery tonight for our first ever visit. It won't be our last. Beth took our order promptly, meals were hot and such large portions. My crumbed mushrooms was excellent and hubby had scampi. We was both full and satisfied. Very reasonably priced. Salad...

Had my worst experience eating out by being given the beef lasagne instead of the vegetarian one. I asked the waitress if it was the vegetarian one before it was given to me and realised that it wasn't on my second mouthful. When I asked again and showed it to the staff I was told no it wasn't and was really quite upset about it. A member of staff spoke to their boss, waived the fee for it, brought out a vegetarian one and apologised, which was acceptable but the owner/manager never came over to apologise or check if I was OK? I had lost my appetite by then and was only able to eat a couple of mouthfuls and I felt they didn't fully understand just how awful a mistake like that is and how it can potentially be quite serious if someone has food allergies or religious reasons for not eating certain foods? I highlighted it to the person ( owner/manager?) who I believe was in charge and took payment for my drink but they gave a lukewarm apology and told me that mistakes happen. I said that this had never happened to me anywhere before and it was actually quite a big mistake especially as I had asked at the time they gave it to me if it was the vegetarian one. At which point she said "No way" I asked her what she meant by "no way" and was told that no way did that happen as the waitress was a vegetarian and would never have given it to me knowing I was one as well! I stated that I definitely asked the question and was then once again told "No way!" I was really shocked by the attitude and suggestion that I was a liar and said that I couldn't believe that she was actually standing there calling me a liar! She then accused me of shouting at her and a lady from our table interjected and said that I definitely did ask the question as she had heard me, to which she was also told "no way"! She again said that I did as she, her partner and three other people had heard me! The woman mumbled something about already having apologised but was obviously not interested and was trying to make me look like I was the one causing a problem! I told her that her apology was worthless (as she was clearly not sorry at all) and that I would never step foot in there again! I have never experienced such dreadful customer service and am totally appalled by this lady's lack of empathy and downright disgusting attitude!

Over all the portions were enormous and good food. The atmosphere was fun and we loved the mead selection. I unfortunately service and time management let the meadery down. We were told to arrive earlier than we had originally booked because our group was quite large. We were split across 2 tables. One table was left waiting 40 mins for their mains, the other table were served dessert at the same time we had our mains! I had to ask passing staff for a drinks order multiple times, one young lady said she couldn't remember the 2 drinks we asked for and would send someone back with a tablet. No one ever came back! With a few tweaks and more attention to the upstairs guests this could be a fabulous place to eat out.

This place is best for groups of friends or family I think. These meaderies have never been particularly cheap, but I thought our last visit was expensive considering the menu is fairly limited.

Great visit tonight! Food was what I expected, huge portions, freshly cooked and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Recommend if you want a place that sells reasonably priced wholesome food, and good for families.

‘Student vibe’ but great for a family meal as very welcoming. Dog friendly, great online food and drink ordering system and really friendly and efficient staff. Good selection of food choices and quality was great. Overall, really good and highly recommended.

Without a doubt the friendliest pub in St Ives. Fantastic landlord, manager and staff who always made us feel welcome. Our son was always made to feel welcome too, he loves his football and music and pool! Had something for everyone everyday. And a special shout out to Yogi Bear the pub dog who is adorable. Great choice of drinks, reasonable prices what more could you ask for on holiday or local for that matter! X
