A great pub with friendly staff and great food. Dog friendly too. I had belly pork and mash, my partner had slow roasted lamb. Both were well presented and delicious

From the menu I was expecting the usual pub grub but the standard was so much better than that and portion sizes were good too and pleasantly priced. Would definitely recommend even it it meant going out of my way by a few miles.

Well this was a special day meeting new family for the first time at The Rock. Our large party had a wonderful Sunday Lunch here with a great team providing a lovely atmosphere in an extremely busy place on Mothering Sunday. There were four choices of meat with plenty of it for everybody. The roast potatoes were just perfect with a choice of 6-7 other vegetables, as well as great Yorkshire Puddings and stuffing along with a choice of sauces to accompany the meal, as well as tasty gravy. The puddings looked excellent, but we had no room for anything else. Thanks to the staff at The Rock.

I stay with family in Roche several times each year and this is their local, and now it's mine too. So I have visited very frequently for both food and drinks. Always a pleasant atmosphere and great service.

The sunday roast/carvery. possibly the worst ever. On arriving we were told that no pork was available.ok so move on . Plate sizes smaii for the price.In fact as we had taken friends we were embarresed. The Victoria Inn nearbyis far superior

The clays doesn’t come with the greatest of reputations so entering here for some food was meant with some trepidation. If there was a complaint, I will say it’s noisy when you enter and you can’t quite cancel the amount of noise from the separated dining area, though I should mention it was a Friday night . However, as far as food and service go, it was exceptionally good considering the price. I was delighted with the range of choice and I will certainly come here when it’s potentially quieter as I think that will lead to an even better experience

Booked a table online and arrived to a friendly greeting at the bar. Had an amazing carvery with a choice of 3 meats, all cooked superbly and lovely and tender. A choice of fresh vegetables with Yorkshire puddings, stuffing and amazing crispy roasties( even had crackling). Highly recommend for a Sunday lunch, with lovely friendly staff.

Hubby and I have passed this pub umpteen times and at last we booked Sunday lunch there last week. Why didn't we go before? The best roast potatoes I've had since my dear mum's years ago. The beef was flavourful and tender and the yorkshires perfect. Complimented by real gravy. Excellent meal and very reasonably priced. Would eat here every week. Our new favourite.

The staff are friendly and keen to assist, the Carvery was superb, loads of fresh cooked vegetables and a wide variety. The Beef that I had was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. I will be back and take a group of friends with me next time as the menu looks superb too.

Had a lovely evening meal at the Rock Inn, there’s a great selection of drinks, burgers were delicious and it’s also reasonably priced, especially with the 15% discount on Tuesdays. Also it’s dog friendly in the bar which is an added bonus!

I have to admit that I am not the person that comments on anything and everything, nor do I ever right a review of my experience. If I am unsatisfied with the experience, I just won't return again. But ... I have been seeing the Development of this establishment for that past 20 years and treated myself quite often to a night or two in any of the corner or best suites ( highly recommend those ) and enjoyed the ambiance and service this hotel had to offer. Our experience: Arrival to the hotel : We planned to have drinks prior to our meal. Found the bar area as busy as usual. With no free seats in sight, I ask the Brasserie manager if we could order drinks in the main lounge, whereas we been told that there normally is service but he has no clue what they doing today. Not answer I was hoping for. The entrance to the main lounge also been blocked off for some reason. Luckily the wait at bar was sufficient enough to pass the time for a table to become vacant. In previous visits, a relaxed table service was offered but not this time for some reason . Guess it’s an informal 5 star service.. , had to ask for bar menus as neither been on the bar or tables to see what’s on offer. ( also no usual complimentary nuts that used to be offered ) Restaurant We arrived early to our Booking at the samphire and were delighted to be able to be seated, unfortunately without any menus. It took about 10-15 min of us staring holes into the warm air, when I lost my patients and had to get up from the table to ask for menus at the entrance of the Restaurant. Yet again it took quite a while for us to order drinks and food as it seemed to be a chaotic service with everyone doing everything and no restaurant Manager nor head waiter in sight ( please note.. all evening ) . The lack of attention to detail was incredible .. table settings with knives to left and forks to right on every table .. just wow - giggle Food and drinks order done. ( ordered a glass of white wine with my mains, which never arrived ).. Drinks arrived what seamed ages. Overheard table next to us complaining about the slow service too, which been given a small apology but no solution to increase the speed of service ( yet again a lack of management ) Noticed the young waiter being unfamiliar on how to correctly present a bottle of wine and opening it, which I thought should be a training standard for a 5 star establishment. not only did he seem untrained, he also dried his hands in a used napkin left on the table next to him where diners just left. The pork belly starter , was below luke warm which was shame as its been rather tasty. I guess if a portion of this size is sitting on a kitchen pass for mere 3 min, it naturally will loose its core temperature, suggestion.. Next time use a cloche! I wanted to point this out to the service but yet again no manager or headwaiter to be seen and the waiters seem too busy to be bothered. Once they did ask if everything is alright, but by that time we finished what we had on the plate ( which is not a lot if you are hungry ) Unfortunately the main course of the hen and the monk fish not been any better and yet again being luke warm. Dessert of the frangipane tart and pineapple been ok, but yet again no attention to detail, as the dessert been bought out without cutlery being replenished prior. Ordered coffee to be served in the lounge, which arrived with no sugar or spoon and had to be asked for separately. When I paid my bill, I mentioned that the wine I ordered with my main course never arrived. No apology was offered.. A "informal fine Dining " experience. 95% informal - 5 % fine Dining. :-( Over the past 20 years I always chose the Headland hotel for its perfection, attention to detail and impeccable service, this time it's not delivered to its promise which is a shame cause that's what I will remember.. Coming from a 4 to a 5 star .. I expected more ( go back to 4 stars !!! You been better then

I will start by saying the restaurant did reduce our bill and throw in a few free extras but we were very surprised by the quality and portioning of the food. At the time the cafe was very quiet but the staff seemed a little bit chaotic. Orders not being put through properly, items missed off and not knowing what beer they had available. A couple of us ordered the chicken burger (£13) and my son had the kids version (£8.50) but his came with chips. I was pretty shocked when we both received exactly the same sized portion. A small bun, 1/2 a small chicken fillet and one piece of lettuce, not exactly worth £13. The staff did even comment that they there was an issue but still felt it was fine to serve and just expect people to pay. The pizzas were but ok but again surprised when we we charged £3 for 2-3 sliced olives as an extra. We've eaten at many other places up and down the coast and based on our experience we would not return.

We chanced upon this cosy, historic pub while out walking along the Saint's Trail from Perranporth to Cocks on Thursday, 5th December. We initially popped in for lunch - sandwiches, dripping cooked chips plus drinks - and ended up returning that evening for fish and chips, and again on Sunday lunchtime for the Sunday roast. We were that impressed!!!! The haddock and chips was sublime, as was the roast pork, which came with all the trimmings plus the excellent cauliflower cheese as an extra. The desserts of sour cherry roulade and sticky toffee pudding were also excellent. Finally, Matt clearly knows how to keep beer as both the London Pride and Landlord were perfect. As others have recently commented, the new landlords, Matt and Diane, are a class act and we found them very friendly, accommodating and professional. They have a lot of experience from previous ventures and we wish them well at the Bolingey Inn - we will certainly return there, next time we are on holiday in the area and will happily recommend it to others.
