Seven Stones Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Fantastic food, friendly staff cosy surroundings well worth a visit-we had such fun one evening and will miss it greatly

Completely delicious lunch (huge portion!), great pint and stunning view. My favourite pub on The Isles of Scilly, and it never disappoints.

We of course couldn’t go without a few visits to our local pub whilst on holiday Based so close from Karma hotel where we stayed. The food was very nice, strongly recommend their burger as it comes with 8oz burger, pulled pork and bacon. Fantastic!! Staff are also incredibly nice!

We had a lovely evening at the Seven Stones I had Lamb Tagine and it was delicious …. it was great to sit out side and enjoy the wonderful views ! When back in Scilly we will definitely book again ….please go you won’t be disappointed .

Unfortunately this isn’t the pub we know and love. Extremely limited menu this year with smaller portions and higher prices than the nearby hotel. It was noticeably quieter than normal….

We spent a week on St Martin’s and the Seven Stones is the best. Food, vibe and crew….special thanks to Dan, Cassie, Sophie and Lily…simply the best 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you so much. Andy n Ren

Nice ales and decent choice of food with lots of outside seating with magnificent views. Inside it has a traditional pub feel.

Fabulous views, great atmosphere & v g food (even if the menu is rather short). we were told that this wa thebest pub in Scilly & after a week there, we agree.

The view was fantastic from this great location. The surroundings are comfortable and pleasant. We have been many times before, and had had great meals, but this year we were sadly disappointed; the menu choice was far more limited than on previous occasions, and the prices were astronomical. I think £14.50 for a pasty and £10.50 for a sausage roll with a few crisps sprinked on the plate is daylight robbery. We will continue to visit, but just for drinks and the view, until sane management returns.

Our first time of making this Inn. Every time we've been to St Martin's we've either ended up at Karma or had something at the Bakery. This place is a gem........ the staff were fabulous and the food was top quality. Love the outside space but please, please visit, its awesome.

Called in for lunch. Had the best BLT and mayo ever! Friendly service. Thoroughly recommend. Lovely and peaceful setting.

Fine watering hole for a yachtie! Just a stroll from the north coast anchorages or the harbour Very welcoming staff Beer and food top quality and sensible price Going back next week And the showers made a new man of me! Thankyou

Friendly staff. Good food reasonable prices Nothing fancy but great atmosphere Would deffo go again

Our favourite pub in the UK, unbelievable views, great choice of beers on tap and really friendly staff. They were easily able to cater to our large group of 12 with no dramas and the ciabattas were brilliant. Thank you all

Top Class! Great pub food and nice selection of cold beers, plus wines, spirits and cocktails! Really nice atmosphere and service, and best of all, great views! Minutes from Lower Quay beach.

A week sea kayaking round the Isles of Scilly had us based in the excellent campsite on St Martin which was matched by the staff, service and food/drink in the Seven Stones Inn. The best view of the IOS was enjoyed through a Solar Haze and we were sustained by the superb pies and ribs. Both Sophies, Dylan, Chess and Emily have the best "office" and their playlist was the icing on a very tasty cake. Wholly recommended.

Went here several times during a holiday trip. Staff very friendly. Fantastic views from the outside tables. The menu was decent with good variety. We tried several dishes and they were all very good, obviously a decent chef working hard in the kitchen.

Visited whilst on a day trip to St Martins. Pub a bit tucked away up a lane but well worth seeking out ( it is also the only pub on the island ) Really characterful , friendly and traditional pub in great location with views from tables at front.......in good weather. Liked it so much would consider staying on St Martins next time !

Owner Drunk We were a party of 6 enjoying the the company . The meal was outstanding. Then We had to listen to the landlords stories sitting listening swearing

Called in here for Sunday lunch. Had the most amazing roast lunch. Great food generous portion. Service was excellent and the view looks out over the bay.

Called in for a drink en route to catch the boat back to St Marys. Lovely terrace with views down to the coast, good choice of drinks, and although we didn't eat there the food passing our table looked fantastic. A lovely setting and apparently a popular pub for food.

Gorgeous gorgeous! Lovely and clean and perfect for our family .We honestly cannot say enough about this lovely place. We will definitely be back.The staff could not do enough.

A good location with a splendid view. Pub has an eclectic mix of furnishings and a wide range of drinks. Well worth a visit

Best pub on the Islands, gorgeous views , excellent food, well kept beer & cider & of course brilliant staff, thanks to to Chess,Emily, Rowena & Sophie for creating a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere and being super efficient no better how busy the pub is.

We had 3 excellent meals at this pub during our stay. Inventive menu, good choice, well cooked and delicious. On every occasion, the food came out hot and quickly. The service was excellent too. Would definitely recommend it.

Visited on a sunny June evening to sit outside and enjoy possibly the best view in Scilly. The food was good including fresh locally caught lobster and hake. The staff were friendly and helpful.

We cannot speak highly enough about this place. Whether you want a few pints in the evening sun or a hearty meal with one of the best views of the isles, then this is the place for you. Found on the western side of St...

Fabulous pub with great beer, food and really friendly relaxed atmosphere, oh and amazing views across the Scillies. The staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly.

I have been visiting the Isles of Scilly for many years, in fact from 1975! Although we have only been to St Martins a few times. Fantastic walks, views from all round, beautiful beaches, what more can you want? Oh yes a good pub! We...

The Stones was recommended to us and wow what a pub & food & location with views, excellent food great staff, will definitely go back

Great pub with an excellent sea view. Friendly staff, delicious food and a good selection of drinks. Can highly recommend.

We visited The Seven Stones Inn several times during our stay on St Martin’s. A great pub with good beer and food with extremely friendly efficient staff. There is a lunch and an evening menu with specials, so no problem for variety! When we return...

Beautiful pub, Stunning views, perfectly located. Staff was very welcoming and the food arrived quickly. Though the food was very nice the menu was lacking in opinions. We felt for a pub there wasn’t enough pub classics on the menus for example a simple easy...

Lovely food , good choice served by helpful people, owners done a lovely refurb, lovely views while dining.

We always pop in the Seven stones for a beer when we visit St Martins. The views from the beer garden are some of my favourite, when the sun is out on the sea, the views to Tresco just take your breath away. We have...

Good quality food, although they do seem to run out of stuff quite a lot. Portions could have been a little more generous for the money. That said, it is very pleasant to sit outside, fantastic views and a cold glass of beer in your...

Just a short stroll from the Karma hotel is the Seven Stones Inn. What a varied and adventurous menu we were presented with! Service was excellent and food well cooked and presented, A world away from the only hotel on St Martins, but worth a...

Another lovely lunch on this gorgeous island. Really great burgers, tasty and succulent. And another banging soundtrack through the speakers 😎

Excellent service by Reggie, for the evenings we ate there. The mussels were out of this world so were the spare ribs. On Sunday the band played on and on which enhanced the entire experience.

Cracking pub with great beer, food & views. Well run busy pub with friendly staff, always worth a visit.

Another fine evening spent on St Martins! How can you not visit the local pub and you would struggle to find better views Busy busy venue but great lagers and ales on offer Wife and myself very happy to return here for an afternoon drink...

We popped in for a quick drink to be met with a huge queue at the bar, one man behind it who was under pressure but was also answering the ‘phone at the same time which I find particularly irritating: your paying customers should come...

We had several meals here during our stay on St Martins. The pub looks old but has been built in keeping with the area. The inn is furnished in antique and vintage furniture, it exudes a wonderful atmosphere. Importantly the menu was varied with daily...

This is the only pub on St Martins and thankfully it is exceptionally good. Everyone that worked there was super friendly, the food was fantastic, so much so that we went back several times so we could try other stuff on the menu. The ribs...

Camped in St Martin's for a couple of nights. The staff, food and pub environment was amazing! Even got to see a local band playing there as we were heading off the island

Fabulous view - we make sure to visit every year. This time we had the scrummy lamb flatbread to share. Make sure to arrive by 2.30 as they stop serving then.

Great looking pub full of character. Fun and friendly staff. Delicious flatbread washed down with a selection of Cornish ales

The only pub on the island which gives them a monopoly. Very quirky and looks as if it’s midway through building improvements. Family run and helpful friendly staff. Very popular so booking for dinner essential.

We was staying at Karma hotel for a few nights but decided that the cost of food was too high so booked two nights meals here and was not disappointed food was fabulous many thanks.

First visit to St Martins and we made a beeline for here. First off, this is a lovely spot. There is a great view out over the bay and most of those famous seven stones! There is plenty of outside seating space with rustic reclaimed...

Great location when it’s sunny. It was a bit cooler and rather dark indoors. We had friend baby squid, tomato salad, grilled (very garlicky) prawns and chips washed down with beer and cider. You order and pay at the bar then they bring it to...

This pub has great potential - nature has provided it with a wonderful view… The current owners need to spend a few days clearing the abandoned vehicles, pallets, bonfire, building materials etc. As a customer, I wonder… if the front looks this messy, how tidy...

I dropped in after a long stroll along the beach a low tide and was given a really friendly welcome. I was recommended the Shellfish Linguine which featured mussels and langostines in a sauce of basil, coriander, garlic and lemon. This was a completely delightful...

It’s taken me a year to write this review but genuinely still thinking about how good the crab and lime ciabatta roll was last July for lunch. Probably the best sandwich I’ve ever had and the best views. Just perfect on a sunny day with...

After a hectic and long day in St Marys, watching the gig racing, we called in to the pub on the way back after getting the 8pm boat back to Higher Quay. I enjoyed the red wine and fantastic atmosphere, staff were really friendly. There...

We visited St Martins recently and spent our evenings enjoy this wonderful pub, great food drinks and service. Superb friendly with a real local feel, we really felt welcome,must visit food amazing,really quirky pub beautiful log fire.See you again one day ! Phil and Juliette

Great visit. We landed here after a long hot walk around the island (and after finding almost everything else closed due to Covid). We only had 45 mins before our boat left. But they fed and watered us in time! The menu was really interesting...

Great food, great atmosphere and great views. Loved it. Between the pub and the restaurant at the Karma hotel, we felt very well catered for on St Martin's.

Absolutely perfect. We had some great weather so went over to St Martin’s for the day. We walked up here for lunch after the beach. Perfect beer garden, incredible view, lunch was fantastic… everything about it was great!

Great food , friendly staff and delightful ambience . The menu choices and food are far better than the resort next door . So glad we found it . Highly recommended for lunch , dinner or just a passing drink . Beautiful view from tables...

Been going to the Isles of Scilly for many years. Stopped at the Seven Stones Inn on St Martins last week for a coffee...great view of the sea and a building site, including a rusting and decaying JCB in the lower field. Coffee was cold...

A welcome stop after a walk to the other end of the Island only to find the cafes closed. A superb view on a beautiful day to enjoy the well earned lunch and a pint.

Th Seven stones is always a good place to stop for refreshments after a long walk. I haven’t been over to St Martins for a few years and was pleased to find the pub was even better than my last trip. There is plenty of...

A friend of ours took us to Seven Stones. We had a lovely lunch and the landlord made us very welcome. My daughter and I even bumped into him again at a festival and he remember us, or our dog snoopy. Would definately recommend anyone...

Fantastic location and excellent meals at a very reasonable price. We keep going back to the Seven Stones and are never disappointed. Friendly and hardworking staff look after you very well. Enjoyed sharing platters, macaroni cheese, Cajun chicken burgers and pasties!

Everything about this pub is excellent. The food is always superb, the service and friendliness from the staff is always excellent and as for the view....!!

Great service despite COVID times and a busy crowd I was attended to very well. Sit outside if it's a nice day - you'll get incredible views across Lower Town towards Tresco.

A beautiful spot, lovely pub. Such friendly staff who welcomed us, even though we only had a drink and not food.

We had the most delicious lunch here. My crab ciabatta was absolutely stuffed full of crab and was absolutely delicious. What a spot to sit and eat. The view is so good that the husband stayed on his own for one more beer whilst we...

Amazing place to eat on St Martins Island. Best place to eat by far and MUCH better than the completely tasteless and very expensive meal that we had at nearby Karma St Martins for our anniversary meal. We ate here on 3 nights of our...

Visited here on day trip to St Martins lovely old pub. We had a drink and Filled Ciabatta with Ham and Cheese. The food and drink were all lovely qnd the bar area very clean

With more and more places catering for fancy tastes, it was refreshing to find a traditional pub, and this one has spectacular views! We just wanted coffee, and yes, it was available. Filter coffee. Nothing fancy. No options, just hot coffee. Just what we wanted....

The setting is beautiful with a fantastic view and nice outdoor area. However, we were disappointed with the bored and unenthusiastic attitude of our waiter and the lack of choice on the menu. There are no substantial meals- it's either wraps/sandwiches with a handful of...

Had the most fantastic seafood platter here after a boat trip we just had to go back a second day as enjoyed this inn so much. The staff are the friendliest I have ever met and made us feel very welcome as well as being...

If you are visiting St Martins in the Scilly Isles, you simply have to pop in here for a bite to eat or a delicious cool drink with views out over the sea. The food is delicious, a family run pub with a warm and...

Walked the length of St Martin's and ended up at this great pub. Had a simply delicious crab and prawn salad sat overlooking the bay. Great service, fabulous food at a good price, whats not to like?

Had the most amazing tomato and mozzarella ciabatta for lunch. So fresh, so tasty, and a good price. First visit here, but we’ll be back.

The only pub on this Island. You might think they would be complacent with a captive market! No, you would be wrong….. Welcoming, charming, eager to please & delightful staff. Excellent value for money & delicious lunch. Don’t walk past it, you will love it.

This is the best pub/ restaurant I have ever and will ever go to! The atmosphere, food, people everything is perfection! I was devastated to leave the island and the Seven Stones had a lot to do with that! I will be dreaming of platters...

Relaxed outdoor atmosphere with friendly and helpful staff. Light lunch menu ideal for walkers. Quaint interior with extension dining room. Fabulous views!!

Once again, great crab salad and really good service ! Stunning view, which is the USP of the pub, BUT, not sure who decided on putting a bright pink shed to hide some of the view this year ! Not in keeping with the environment...

Yes this maybe the only pub on this idyllic heaven of an island, but it's a great pub! Excellent food, fantastic service and amazing views. We went three times during our stay. Between us we had the burger, seafood linguine, ribs, caesar salad and ciabatta...

I felt ripped off, I paid £19 for the half lobster with salad. There was the equivalent of 4 king prawns on the lobster meat and it wasn’t tender. I was left hungry and ended up buying a sandwich on St Mary’s

We ate here every day on our holiday on st Martin’s it was fantastic , staff work very hard and are very friendly . Great value for money , the views are priceless . Defiantly recommend a meal and drink at this little gem .

We had lunch and they had some lovely vegan food, I had a vegan pasty and my daughter had a beautiful salad

Another Isles of Scilly pub emerging from lockdown at top speed. The pub has changed little over the years but outside things are changing for the better. Whilst this happens the traditional seating is unhindered. Attentive staff who will do their best to get you...

Some friends and I visited at the end of October and we spent the day on St Martin's. We looked ahead to see opening hours and noted that Seven Stones wasn't open on a Tuesday so we worked around this. Especially with COVID we thought...

Have been coming to St Martins for over 35 years and was very dissapointed to find that the exterior of the pub has worsened since my last visit in 2018, if that were possible, and it is now closed on Tuesdays (guess when we arrived)....

We loved The Seven Stones Inn. Hayley and Jack are superb ambassadors for the Island as well as the pub. Super knowledgable, exceptional customer service and lovely warm welcome every time despite difficult times, mask wearing and restrictions. Oh, and great taste in music! We’re...

Whilst walking around the Island we stopped at this epic spot for a drink and were treated to blue sky's and a great view! Definitely recommend and very friendly hosts as well.

Had lunch here today whilst on day visit from St Marys. Extremely busy but food was simple and delicious. We had a smoked mackerel caesar salad and a crab salad and drinks is. Hayley worked hard to accommodate all that arrived for lunch or drinks....

we came here two days in a row and it was stunning . Beautiful views fantastic staff and service... and yummy no nonsense food ! Thankyou so much !!

We have recently visited here - beautiful position and fantastic views. The food was excellent. Well organised, kind staff , excellent customer service , felt very safe in these unprecedented times, Covid aware & secure, but not over the top. Would highly recommend & will...

We stopped here to shelter from the rain! What a wonderful place. Service was excellent and the food was superb. We had sandwiches and chips and it was delicious. Food and drink was very reasonable. The lid itself is beautifully done and the atmosphere was...

St Martins is a very special place as is the Seven Stones Inn. We ate there several times and all meals were super. I think those who make any criticisms have very little understanding of life on an ‘off Island’ on the Isles of Scilly....

The pub is very pleasant and both inside and outside. The menu is not extravagant but the service was excellent and the bench style tables outside are practical and inviting, especially if you go for lunch and then choose to stay for a while into...

The whole area around the pub needs tidying. Part of the Scilly experience is the unkempt look unless you are on Tresco, and that is spoilt by the over tidyness, but this goes beyond normal with abandoned stuff everywhere hiding in the bracket around the...

Staying nearby and found this delightful pub with a great chef and a brilliant waitress (Hayley). So pleased we booked a table for Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings- the crab salad is fantastic but sells very quickly. There is some walk- in tables available but...

You’re always guaranteed a warm welcome at the Seven Stones and the food is excellent too. A rather limited menu, due to the pandemic, but the mackerel salad was very good. A lovely view as you eat your lunch, too.

Been to several pubs during this period of Covid19 and mostly found a very good safe and pragmatic approach. However, we arrived during the time where it was drinks only which was fine because that is all we wanted ie a couple of beers and bag of crisps.However, completely unimpressed when given 2 bottles (fine) but no glasses. Then opened by the person serving at the door using a bottle opener which has been handled throughout the day and then expecting people to then drink direct from the bottle top! Don't mind spending £9 if served properly with glasses and toilet facility etc..Yes there was no toilets open so not sure about the business acumen of owners who are trying to sell drinks but not have a toilet?Pub itself still run down and nothing being invested in the building or indeed valuing their customers. Made the mistake of coming here twice now in the last 2 years and definitely will not be returning.
