The Angry Anchovy in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Popped in quickly to grab some takeaway pizza and grab a cold pint while we waited. The staff were well presented and really friendly, the cider was ice cold and the pizzas were exceptional.

We came here last night whilst on holiday in Port Isaac. The staff were so lovely (in particular the lady with the brown curly hair in the ponytail - she was amazing), the food was great (pizza base was 100/10) and an overall really nice find in this little town. :)

Great quality pizza served by friendly staff. Dog friendly and a wonderful atmosphere. Sharps brewery beers on tap.

Excellent Pizza and service, highly recommend!

Great food and service, friendly staff - pizza's possibly the best in town! Highly recommend and will return to eat here next year hopefully..

Excellent pizza and great service in a friendly and comfortable restaurant. Check Facebook for opening hours. In November it was open Fri and Sat only from 1900.

A really lovely little place, the pizzas were delicious. My son is gluten free and he had the nicest GF pizza he’s ever had. The staff were all lovely, very friendly and attentive and even the dog was made a fuss of with her own pizza and photo on the wall. Would definitely recommend.

This is a cheapish and cheerful cafe, with friendly staff and a good atmosphere. It serves tasty homemade freshly baked pizzas. The menu would benefit from a bit of variety - like a pasta dish or two... and some different salads. We enjoyed our meal here. The food was good and not over-priced and we would have stayed longer if it was a bit more comfortable (the wooden chairs were very hard).

Delicious pizza, super friendly staff and so so dog friendly - our furry friend got her picture taken and was added to their wall of doggy fame! Definitely a must visit in Port Isaac!

We visited with my parents and our dog . A quirky little place with great pizzas and the sweet potato fries and salads were great ! The staff were so friendly and accommodating and certainly made the experience even better ! We also ordered takeaway pizza from here . Highly recommend!

Myself and my humans dined here, the parents and grandparent said the pizza was awesome!! But forget that let’s talk about me! I got my photo on the doggy wall and wait for it… can you feel the suspense… my very own Doggy pizza 🍕 🐩 That makes it a 5 star venue for me. I award this the highest score of 10 paws 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 thank you love Bonnie the Bear x (I didn’t get a photo of my pizza as it was gone in seconds!)

Went tonight for our last holiday evening (what a shame) what a wonderful place slightly quirky in a brilliant way being a music lover few great photos around, pizza for 3, flyn the dog loved his, easy recommendation will definitely come again, lovely place

Loved it best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had friendly service cool atmosphere we will definitely be returning

Such a lovely evening, I'm gluten free and this was the best pizza ever, Dexter dog got his own little pizza and hubby had a clean plate! Definitely one to recommend x

My daughter loves this place and rightfully so. The pizzas are lovely. The ndjua was my favourite. They also bring out a mini pizza for your dog. The service also deserves a mention. The lady who served us was so friendly. Great experience

Really disappointed by the owner’s attitude. We tried to eat in this restaurant yesterday and while the member of staff was really helpful the owner blatantly ignored and to be frank treated my wife l like something on the bottom of his shoe. While I have no doubt the food is excellent we will never eat in this restaurant out of principle.

What a lovely restaurant! With an anxious pet dog who can't be left alone for more than an hour or so, we needed somewhere dog-friendly to eat and the Angry Anchovy exceeded all expectations. Though busy the staff were happy to meet our dog and chat and the pizzas were top notch. We loved it that our dog's photo was added to the hundreds adorning the restaurant wall

Ordered a Meaty pizza for collection. We were slightly late due to traffic but it was kept warm for us. It was sooo tasty. Full of flavour and peppers and onions still had a little bit of crunch. Lovely staff. Can't wait to have another one.

We been there around 7 on Sunday It was not busy only 2table were in serving yet they refused to serve us Moreover they refused to get take away . Before going there we called and lady shut the phone without complete conversation saying we can’t serve take away or eat in .

Great pizzas and plenty of choice. Each of us has a different pizza and we were all happy with our choices. Happy to recommend

Lovely pizzas and side salads. Friendly waitresses and nice atmosphere. Very accommodating to our family reunion group and a nice first meal of our holiday - recommended

Had a meal for the four of us; loved it. It’s a quirky place that demands pre-booking, and rightly so. Great food, very clean and friendly staff. We only had pizzas, we didn’t try any sides but the pizzas were just top dollar; (hopefully I’ve successfully weaned my family off of stupid big-chain horrors at long last). I wish they had more capacity but then perhaps that’ll detract from the atmosphere. If you’re nearby, book and enjoy. Oh, they don’t just automatically add a service charge so please make sure they get the tips they deserve:- service is second to none.

We've meant to come for a meal here for some time and wondering why we hadn't come earlier - it will certainly be a 'must'on our list on future visits to Port Isaac! A warm welcome, complimentary olives and breadsticks to start. We had the hawaiian pizza and a white pizza with mushrooms, truffle oil and extra anchovy topping. The green salad we ordered was also beautifully presented and everything delicious. Very nice merlot too! We brought our dog Basil with us and he absolutely loved his free doggy pizza...and a few salad leaves too! Looking forward to next time!

Been wanting to go here for years but it had always been fully booked. This time we planned ahead and made two bookings. It was well worth the wait. Great Pizzas - complimentary olives & breadsticks - and a Nutella calzone & ice cream to finish Eclectic decor - album covers from my era, film music & Doc Martin memorabilia. Great service & good value So nice to have a pizza without lots if deluveroo drivers queuing up to collect orders - but then Port Isaac is rather hilly and has limited phone signals! Will book ahead again when we return for 2024 Endellion Festivals.

I’d put zero stars but unfortunately it isn’t an option. Got there tonight for a takeaway and told us they were fully booked for takeaway. I always thought takeaway was to be cooked on request but obviously not in that shop. Safe to say I won’t be trying again. Co-op is closer and cheaper for me and probably taste nicer.

Clearly staff attitude issues here this evening as quite a few other reviews are relatively positive or are the expections of others lower? Phone not being answered for takeaways. Drove (several miles) to place order personally. Greeted by an entirely lifeless young lady with barely a fundamental grasp of customer service who made it quite obvious she couldn't be arsed to "add to her workload" by answering the phone! Even after this we're told it'll take TWO HOURS to fulfill our order of just THREE pizzas. A business model built on "why care - there'll be another mug punter holiday maker just around the corner"!

We ordered a take away from the Angry Anchovy and unfortunately three out of the 5 pizzas we ordered were incorrect. While the pizza was tasty (although the pepperoni was particularly oily), we would have preferred to receive what we ordered. I appreciate that if we had contacted the Angry Anchovy, they may have rectified this, however by that point we were starving!

On holiday in Port Isaac I rang up on a Saturday night to order a takeaway. They were busy but took the order for 2 hours time. We turned up and the order wasn’t ready but we were given a seat to wait and offered a complimentary drink. The pizzas were freshly cooked, plenty of toppings and thin, crisp base. Absolutely amazing. The restaurant itself looked fun and quirky, it’s obviously a popular place and it’s easy to see why. Highly recommended, next time we’re in Port Isaac we will definitely book a table for the full experience. Thank you.

Lovely pizza place with a wide range of pizzas all perfectly well cooked and presented . Very busy although I booked 3 months in advance to make sure . Service was very pleasing and the food was very nice indeed. Overall a great experience especially...

We booked the restaurant for a pizza night while on holiday, including our dog. The welcome was lovely as are the quirky old school desks that we ate at. The choice of pizzas are very good as is the drink choice. Like everywhere in Port...

Excellent meal here as a final night treat after a lovely week in Port Isaac. The pizzas were divine, cooked perfectly with just the right amount of crispness & heavy with toppings. The serving staff are extremely attentive and they really are dog friendly - our pooch got spoilt rotten with his own pizza, treats and his photo on the wall- highly recommended, but I suggest you book ahead!

Takeaway review - lovely, friendly staff and pizza was ready to pick up on time. Pizza base was excellent but toppings disappointing. We found the menu to be a little repetitive and lacking diversity in flavour. They tasted nice, albeit a little salty for our...

We got takeaway pizza's and had drinks while we waited for them. The young ladies at the bar that evening were fabulous. Very friendly and chatty, local girls too. Was lovely talking to them. Delicious pizza

Lovely restaurant. We were really looked after and it was very dog friendly. We got a complimentary pizza for our pooch. He loved it. Our pizzas were delicious too. Make sure you book in advance as it is very busy.

Great pizza! We ordered over Facebook messenger and they were super busy but managed to squeeze us in. Thanks!

Absolutely fantastic evening with 5 families. We pre-ordered our meals & everything ran like clockwork. Lovely staff couldn’t do enough for us. We love this place & dog friendly too 5*

Amazing place! Food is stunning, staff are wonderful and Dog Friendly is an understatement. The dogs get their very own mini pizza!! (see pic) Music was great, banging out all the classics and there is even a dog wall of fame where your pooch can get a pic taken! Such a wonderful little gem. If you're in Port Isaac you must eat here (with or without a dog!)

Excellent pizza, very fresh and tasty. Amazing value for money! Dough authentic and tomato sauce beautiful. Will definitely be retuning!

Arrived at 8pm to a restaurant with a few empty tables. We didn’t have a reservation but were told they were fully booked. Seems like the couple behind us were told the same thing. Walked back past 30 minutes later to see an empty restaurant bar one table. Seems like the lazy staff didn’t want to serve anymore so were lying to potential customers. I’ve read similar reviews so seems like it’s an ongoing issue. I’d recommend having a back up plan if you’re set on eating here.

Penny is amazing. Definitely recommend for friendliness, food and fun

Lovely pizza in a warm and friendly restaurant. Good menu choice.

Lovely looking little restaurant and does pizza to die for. Best pizza base I've ever eaten, bar none and the sweet potato fries are beautiful. Thanks very much folks, we loved it.

The food was fab! I came with a friend and our 3 dogs, the team was lovely and so welcoming! We loved the atmosphere. We ordered pizza, it was soo good and the cutest thing was that every dog got his or her own little pizza! They were so happy. We also took a dessert which was very good. Best place, can highly recommend! Can't wait to go there again. A lot of love from Leeds

Fast and friendly service. Busy place with a good atmosphere. The pizzas were good and the dogs were given their own mini pizzas as treats by the restaurant!

Great pizza's, you can also get your dog a complimentary pizza. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere.

Unless you live in a 10 yard radius, don't bother!! Tried to order takeaway and was told they were fully booked. How can you be fully booked for TAKEAWAY!!! Co-op pizza much nicer anyway. I now now why its called Angry Anchovy...he obviously couldn't get served eitherl!!

We stopped here for dinner two nights in a row while spending a few days in Port Isaac and I can highly recommend The Angry Anchovy - great service from Penny and her team who made us feel very welcome indeed! The pizzas are delicious and they also do gluten free bases - if we're ever in the area again, we will definitely be back! 😄

Really lovely dinner! Great value, beautiful fresh ingredients and really helpful and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit or two if you are staying locally!

Just back from The Angry Anchovy in Port Isaac. Great vegetable pizza at a reasonable price and a limoncello ice cream/meringue dessert to die for. Quirky place with good atmosphere and very attentive cheerful staff. Will definitely recommend.

Really lovely friendly local restaurant serving very tasty pizzas with lots of gluten free options. The GF pizza bases were great. Love all of the dog pics as you enter!

We had a good time here, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the food was great with a good range of options. If there was a downside it was that the staff spent a lot of time chatting to customers to the detriment...

We visited the Angry Anchovy after a long day of walking on the South West Coastal Path. We were cold and very hungry and this was the perfect place for dinner. We had two pizzas and two lots of chips. I had a gluten free...

Fabulous fabulous fabulous fabulous. Highly recommend. We tried a walk in the night before but they were fully booked so we booked for the following night, which was the last night of our holiday.  Fabulous - Service. A Mother and daughter duo, Penny and Ali...

Would be 5 but didn't have the dessert nearly everyone at the table wanted.

Lovely place to eat, the food was brilliant Nice vibes in the plac. I must say both service ladies were absolutely fantastic, very friendly. A credit to the business.

Best pizza we have ever had. A perfect example of a simple menu done well

Had a family meal last night the food was absolutely amazing and staff even better highly recommended.

1 of our faves! Great Pizza, lovely staff & dog friendly. We live in Cornwall not far from Port Isaac so love to eat here when we get the chance 😋

Good pizzeria, really good food, lovely staff.my granddaughter gave it a 10 out of 10 and she not wrong great night thanks.

Excellent pizza! Really tasty base and toppings. Staff are very friendly and the service was very good. Booking in advance recommended as they get busy and they were turning a lot of people away when we ate. Reasonably priced for Port Isaac too!

Website says food stops at 9pm, but wouldn't take an order at 8:30pm. Don't bother

One star only because I can't leave a zero star review! Don't believe the information on the website that last orders are at 9pm as the kitchen shuts when ever they can't be bothered to cook pizza, on the evening we wanted to order it was shut at 8:30. Customer service on the phone was awful, no apologies for the kitchen shutting early and couldn't get me if the phone quick enough. Their loss as we spent £75 elsewhere that gave fantastic customer service and great pizza too.

A lovely meal with excellent staff - thoroughly enjoyable

Best meal of our holiday! Such lovely personable staff who take excellent care of you, the food was incredible and the complimentary pizzas for our dogs was awesome. Would 100% recommend!

Great little pizzeria with quirky fun decorations (think fairy lights, world maps, tin signs). Lovely and attentive young staff. The food was delicious and not expensive. A really good find.

We booked a meal at the restaurant in advance after reading reviews on it. The restaurant is at the top of the hill near the car park. The tables are old desks from a school. The restaurant is very dog friendly and has pictures of...

Brilliant food. Very reasonable and tasty food in a beautiful setting of the fair lights. Dog friendly also with even a doggy pizza for Alfie which went down a complete storm!

Food really tasty, excellent service who gave us local knowledge and recommendations. Very dog friendly!

Super friendly, accommodating and lush pizza.

Very nice pizza, and a nice little restaurant.

Loved it, super food, great service & brilliant film buff vib.

Lovely staff, very busy and popular place. Would visit again

Lovely little pizza place in port Isaac. Incredible service and dog friendly -They even brought her a small dog pizza! Would definitely return and recommend to others.

Very friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere, prices very reasonable.Staff joined in with joke played on my wife with her dessert.

Excellent food, brilliant service, special mention to Penny. Definitely recommend.

Fabulous pizzer in the middle of Cornwall. Penny served us how had outstanding customer reporta. A wide variety of thin Crispy pizzers.

Absolutely fab pizza in Port Isaac. With an outstanding waitress called Penny , very pleasant but not pushy.

Lots of good points, but disappointed by the inflexibility of charging for swapping items that I could not eat. Whether you're allergic or vegetarian or vegan, if you swap it for something else you'll be charged extra even if the original item was pricier! Was...

We are honestly very open minded and love going anywhere. Our Mum and Dad booked a table here before we came down on holiday as it seemed it was very good and gets very busy. As we went for our table at 7pm (when it...

Second visit to the Angry Anchovy and it never disappoints. We really enjoy the atmosphere and easy going vibe. The service is excellent and nothing was too much trouble with our table of multiple dietary needs. They even bought our dog a complimentary pizza! Which...

Penny is an absolute star at FOH.

Called in late on a Thursday evening and was told to phone at 7 to order takeaway for the following night. Phoned at 7 and they were already fully booked for takeaway. Amazing how that can be done 1 minute after opening!

Suprisingly great pizza and sides. Expensive wine but it was all nice, food really good value for the quality. The atmosphere and vibe of the place was great, easy going really friendly and comfortable. Very welcoming to kids and dogs. I have to say the...

Being pizza snobs from the US, New Haven CT area, we were pleasantly surprised with our pizza. Fresh ingredients on our pie as well as a fresh salad. Servers were lovely. Def get the Nutella calzone for dessert!

Just had a takeaway pizza and I can honestly say that is the best pizza I have ever had. 😋

Visitinb Port Isacc and have to say the best Pizza we've ever had. Price was so reasonable. The lady that severed was so friendly. Cosy feel to the restaurant. Would highly recommend.

We had wanted to visit the Angry Anchovy for ages and we finally went last night. We were not disappointed. The service and pizza were brilliant and our dogs are now importialised on their photo wall. We highly recommend it and will be back to...

Simply the best pizza we’ve had in a long, long time. We didn’t expect much having seen the small wooden building from the outside - how wrong were we! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. We were given complimentary...

Another Angry Anchovy visit for us (2 in fact) and as always lovely food and the warm, friendly atmosphere the restaurant does so well. Love the music and decor too, plus the quiz! Non fish options can be limited in Port Isaac - unsurprisingly -...

Arrived 5 minutes after opening time to be told there was an hour and fifteen minute wait for take out. The place was almost empty and we passed a man carrying 2 take out boxes on the way in. Staff were apologetic but no explanation given. Perhaps they have a very small kitchen, but they're clearly offering more than they can deliver.

Veery nice Pizza. Authentically tasty. Yum-O. Nice people too and good prices. Job done. Tick!

Great Pizzas and relaxed atmosphere. Thanks again,

We have eaten at the Angry Anchovy before and it was good. We had a table booked to eat here again during our holiday this year. We arrived at the date and time we had booked but it was closed with a chalkboard notice saying...

Fantastic place. Fabulous pizza and a lovely warm welcome. Pre booking essential. Quirky fun and would return

Such a good atmosphere and delicious food. We were a large group and there was no problems getting food in good time.

Delicious pizza. Friendly staff. Extremely efficient and good value. Found us a table on a busy Monday night. Thanks!

We have been to this restaurant multiple times over the years when on holiday, and it is always wonderful. The mother and daughter who work here/run the place are fantastic, very polite, attentive and friendly (I am so sorry that I cant remember their names!)...

Great pizzas with the thinnest and tastiest base possible! The ‘Hot’ could have been hotter but that’s just my taste! Super friendly staff, and a special ‘doggy pizza’ for our dog made for a great evening.

Ordered a takeaway pizza and salad one evening last week. Very friendly service and pizza was ready and waiting for me when I arrived. Restaurant looked warm and cosy. However, pizza wasn't very tasty. Hardly any tomato sauce, very large crust and topping crunchy. Very...

Really lovely takeaway, with the restaurant only a few minutes walk from both Port Gaverne and Port Isaac. This meant we had the choice of both locations to eat, got our pizzas on time, really tasty! Would highly recommend booking in advance as it is...
