The Atlantic Inn in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We’ve been coming to Porthleven for years and we’ve watched the place change, but thankfully the Atlantic never fails to deliver. Good beer, good food, the pub is grounded and warm. Stretch your legs and walk up from the harbour.

Four of us enjoyed the great food at The Atlantic. We were very well looked after by the landlady and found the pub to be better value than some of the other inns nearby.

Booked while on holiday Ordered off the specials board Gammon 2eggs onion rings mushrooms and lots of fat chips in basket Also mussels in sauce with thin chips Good value for money at £14.75 Good selection of main menu Shame the music was cancelled Would certainly go again

Brilliant pub, great staff. A proper local with a real heart

Was good but I hit my head on the ceiling. Not their fault, nothing they can do about it but I'm now 6 inches shorter.

Nice pub and friendly bar staff (Fiona) and the food was nice and reasonably priced we would recommend and would call in again next time we are in Porthleven.

Great Sunday lunch. Done most places in the area and this was a fab Sunday lunch for the money. Good quality, great service and felt very welcomed.

Took family there today for lunch and was very satisfied. Food excellent, plenty of it and very reasonable price. Service very good and wide choice of drinks and real ales. Only under new management recently so well done. As locals, we will be back soon.

Fantastic food, good prices, friendly staff, dogs welcome and given treats. Our service was spot on. No long wait for meals. Veg lasagne is definitely worth trying. Mixed grill was huge. Presentation of food really good. Would 100% recommend visiting.

A little way out of the harbour but worth the couple of minutes walk. Great food and atmosphere.

A great pub/Restaurant All the staff made us very welcome and the food was brilliant This pub is used by the locals who have been at sea for many a year with storys that keep you riveted, all friendly people.

Eaten here a few times , lovely pub food very good ,staff very friendly which l like , had a small problem in the kitchen which resulted in a longer wait than normal,but kept us updated, and gave us complementy drinks ,would visit again soon l hope 👍👍

Very friendly pub, great staff & lovely food. I had the sea bass from the specials board, delicious 😋

Lunch today - wet, cold, stormy June Thursday - absolutely top notch. Fantastic fish & chips.

Great food and good value for money. Friendly staff who let us sample an ale before we bought it. Fantastic views and top quality Sunday roast

When in Porthleven... but unfortunately there was a problem with the beer pump, so equally appropriately I had a Sharps Atlantic. Very nice pint served by a cheerful, friendly lady. Good view from here too.

Great location, out of the huddle and reasonably priced drinks. Lots out outdoor seating

Did well serving a large last minute group. All the food was really good. Lovely service.

Good old local drinking hole. Food looked good, reasonable prices. Could have done with more variety of beer / ale.

So happy to see a new landlord who wants to support locals but wants to encourage regular visitors also! Please visit! Best ‘locals’ plus ‘regular visitors’ pub ever!

Occassionally pop in for a hot chocolate. Staff are polite food is ok average. Quite pricey but competative on the whole. Gets very busy at times and packed out. Good for most ages. children are welcome. Can get noisy. Live music is played .Best to go when empty as long waits. Magical views nearby. Popular with tourists.

I can honestly say I was blown away by this hidden gem! Just a short walk up from the harbour, with a friendly welcome, we all thought the food was amazing, well presented and great value. Apparently it’s just been taken over and if this is their first week I can’t wait to see what it’s like in August when we return! It was very busy when we were there and the team weren’t fazed a bit! Highly recommended.

Proper little corniche pub amazing food and the steak and ale pie is fantastic would be my local if I lived here, not enough stars to fully quote honestly

A lovely, dog-friendly pub. Nice outside space, cosy inside. Very welcoming.

Very busy Six Nations Saturday, bar packed, TV on, great atmosphere. Four of us ate ‘in the back’ restaurant area. Substantial portions of tasty, unpretentious food, delivered in a very reasonable time and friendly manner. This is a dog friendly pub where ours were welcomed. Nice big sign politely asking customers to please keep their dogs off the furniture, which is fair. Treats were offered too. Will return.

Whilst not "pretty" this locals' freehouse pub is located in an elevated hillside position with wonderful harbour and village views. Popped in for a pint of well kept real ale. Featured in the Good Pub Guide and descibed as a friendly buzzy pub in a great setting above the harbour. Log fire and doggy friendly. Simple and unpretentious. Friendly and engaging bar lady. They provide a popular Sunday roast I am told and need to book early to avoid disappointment. 🇬🇧🇳🇿

Beautiful Sunday roast, piping hot, delicious selection of vegetables, melt in your mouth meat selection, gravy was excellent. Great value for money. Cracking waitress fiona, full of smiles and pleasantries.

Good locals pub. Great music venue.

Arr, let me tell ye a tale of the Atlantic Inn in Porthleven, me heartie! I be havin' meself a proper jolly time there on Christmas Eve Eve, and it be a place I've frequented more times than a seagull dips in the sea. The Atlantic Inn, she be like a treasure chest of good times, aye. The music on Christmas Eve Eve – I tell ye, it be better than a chorus of mermaids serenadin' the moon. Had me tappin' me peg leg and swingin' me tankard like a true buccaneer. This place, it be more familiar to me than me own ship. I've navigated these ale-soaked waters more times than I've said "ahoy." It's like comin' home to a cozy cove after a day of high-seas adventures. The atmosphere, matey, it be as warm as a Cornish pasty fresh out of the oven. The locals, they be chattin' away like seagulls gossipin' about the day's catch. The staff, they be friendlier than a pod of dolphins escortin' a ship into harbor. And the grog – oh, the grog! They be pourin' pints of joy that make ye feel like ye've found the fabled Fountain of Ale. I've hoisted many a tankard in that fine establishment, and each time it be a celebration fit for a pirate captain. Now, the Atlantic Inn, it be a place where the laughter flows like rum and the memories be as rich as a ship's hold filled with plunder. It's a proper Cornish haven, and I'd give it more gold doubloons than I've buried in me secret treasure chest. So, if ye find yerself in Porthleven and crave a rollickin' good time, set a course for the Atlantic Inn. It be a legendary spot, and mark me words, ye won't be leavin' disappointed. Aye aye, Captain's honor!

Thank you so much the food was delicious, service was great .Such a lovely atmosphere , we will be back . Merry Christmas all .

Quite chilly in here. Lunchtime Sunday with three customers before we got there. Roast dinners were being eaten and they looked quite tasty. Friendly enough staff.

Went there for Sunday lunch on 26-11-23, and it was amazing. Great atmosphere with a brilliant live band , service was second to none.

It’s a very nice pub. No Thai food anymore though.

Just had a wonderful meal at Langley’s restaurant at The Atlantic Inn. One Cornish Burger and one gammon, pineapple, mushrooms, peas and chips. Really good food and drinks- great prices. Will definitely be eating and drinking here again. Fantastic staff. Great ambience! Well done a cracking pub

Sunday roast is fantastic for the price, live music was on so we stayed and had a great night. Definitely recommend.

Sunday roast, excellent food and plenty of it

Warm and friendly staff and stunning views

We have been before but a few years ago. The Atlantic is the bet pub in Pothleven with a great atmosphere and well kept good value beer. It was at least a pound a pint cheaper than the pubs on the harbour side. A great "locals" pub with live music and sea views. We will be back.

The food was fantastic. Even better thank before. We’ve been coming here for years and this is consistently one of the best and most friendly places in Porthleven. This time we hade Mussels, Octopus, Fish and chips and a crab pasta dish. All absolutely fantastic.

We went as a part of ten to eat and drink. The fantastic staff couldn't do enough for us. The food was delicious. I ordered the large battered hake and was given the extra large for no extra charge. Everything was perfect. We had such a great night. Thank you to you all x

Really nice place, food is good, fresh and attitude here is awesome. Would definitely recommend and would come back, also fairly priced so win win.

Girl behind bar very friendly. Chips were good. However the rest of the food (fish salad and hake batter) was not very lack lustre. The hake batter was rubbery. Complained to the server but he did not seem to be bothered

Friendly local pub with some of the best sea views in Porthleven. Dawn, Steve, Alex and Co make you feel really welcome. Well worth a visit.

Nice little pub.. and the views fantastic.

A magnificent meal in an underused pub. People need to know about how good this pub is for food, beer and friendliness. Where else could you find at least 6 different types of fresh fish on the menu for very reasonable prices. It has tremendous views across the harbour and is dog friendly. It is situated across the harbour opposite the Ship Inn. Do yourself a favour and visit for a lovely home cooked meal.

The best hospitality in Porthleven! The new owners are so friendly (as were the old owners) but these guys go the extra mile to ensure their customers are happy. Dawn, Steve and their daughter Alex provide a personal service to ensure everyone enjoys their visit

Had read good reviews of this place but food we ordered was absolutely awful. I had the burger and my husband had the scampi. Burger was comparable to something you would buy from a value selection in a supermarket the chips were frozen and so overbooked they were dry and inedible. The scampi was greasy and mushy. Will not go back.

Lovely pub in great position above the town. Great outdoor seating with glimpses of the sea far below. Everyone was really friendly, with lots going on like quiz night & open mic etc. Food is tasty (esp due to link with local fisherman) but quite a limited menu

Excellent service and brilliant views. The perfect respite spot.

Very friendly staff, best food we found was the fresh fish on the specials board

From sea to plate the freshness of the fish today was stunning. Four of us ate Dover Sole, Rock Salmon, Megram Sole and Monkfish scampi all freshly cooked and served just the way we asked. We even met the fishmonger who supplied the fish. Desserts were knickerbocker Glories and Banana Splits and really tasty. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

9 of us booked a table very nice staff at the bar and from the kitchen food lovely no complaints and very reasonable prices

Good ale and interesting menu (rock salmon 👍) Dog friendly. Fantastic views & a real suntrap

We stay on holiday often near here and sometimes go to this pub as it is in walking distance from where we stay,a local told us it is not tourist friendly so if you are local fine,but my family always find it a bit frosty !

Excellent pub, lovely atmosphere and good beers. An unbeatable view over the bay.

Great choice of food for kids and fantastic ice creams. They did an Easter special - half an Easter Egg filled with ice cream, sprinkles and four different sauces - boys very happy 😊! Run by a friendly couple who were great with the boys and allowed them to play a few games of pool. He is also a local fishmonger so freshly prepared fish on the menu - yum! We will definitely be back next time we are in Porthleven.

Has a pool table , nice view on hot day , has a choice of drinks staff were friendly wasn’t busy at all compare to ship inn

It's an excellent bar but needs more support from locals and the general public

Enjoyed a drink here after a days walking on the coastal path. Warm welcome. Worth exploring outside of the harbour area

Dog friendly, welcoming and not pretentious ( the latter very refreshing!)

Whats happened to Atlantic,original owners have left! Unfortunately, new folk ,sad to say appears,to have no interest in the pub,no food,no atmosphere, no warm happy welcome,always loved Atlantic on our numerous holiday visits to Porthleven nowadays that's not the case 😢

The pub itself, I would say , is very much a "locals" pub . Nothing wrong with that in the slightest. My partner and I were initially treated with warmth by an almost exclusively partisan clientele. Most of which I felt embraced us with affection (I'm quite gregarious and honest) and humour . Things turned a bit sour , when a certain individual took it upon himself to be offensive , disrespectful and rude to my partner. We had shown him no reason for such insulting and degrading behaviour . We left soon after . It was the first day of our holiday in Porthleven. Thankfully , it was a "one off" , and probably not a true reflection of The Atlantic, which I'd visited before , and had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon listening to live music. But be warned folks .......not all "emetts" are received with warmth .

Beautiful food, lovely staff. My husband and I have eaten here a few times. This time we were with friends and all really enjoyed our evening.

We visited this pub on a Sunday evening, there was live music, we sat outside in the sunshine and watched the sunset. Amazing sea views. We both had the fish pie which was delicious. We were staying in a nearby Airbnb and had walked past this pub a few times going down into the town. We only went in on our last night but it was so good we wish we had visited before.

Really lovely location away from the fray with a gorgeous view of the water. Had a some great spinach soup and the fish pie which was really very good and came with a nice side of much welcomed veg! The place felt really homey and the staff were very very friendly! Another at the table ate short ribs ( very tender) and another the rump steak ( grilled to perfection).

We decided at the last minute to eat out for Sunday lunch and as we were staying close to the Atlantic Inn, we thought we would try it. After reading some of the reviews on Trip Advisor we decided albeit a little tentatively, to give...

We have eaten here on many occasions at different times of the year. Never have we had a bad meal or service. The staff and Management have always gone out of their way to ensure that both the food and the service have been excellent....

Had a meal from menu. Very overpriced and not good value at all. My minted lamb burger was dry with a piece of limp lettuce on side of plate. Won't rush back. The roast looked nice...but alas fully booked for that....

King Arthur's ale, a real head wobbler.

Ah... the Atlantic Inn. Admittedly it's a little tired in decor, but what it lacks in style, it makes up for with lashings of character and charm. The staff are friendly and enjoy a good sense of humour. I've read several reviews about staff being...

Relaxed atmosphere and dog friendly. Situated in an elevated position just up from the harbour. The food was priced well for Porthleven with many option being priced below a tenner. A strange menu with most options being based on a Brazilian Barbeque. I had a steak option which was just £9.00. It comes with a choice of side so I chose Brazilian Dirty beans. Didn’t look too impressive (see photo) so The order of chips was definitely needed to bolster the meal. That aside the food was good and as mentioned priced well. Well worth a visit.

Really friendly pub. A bit off the beaten track but well worth visiting. Nice views out to sea. Seemed to be mostly locals but we were made to feel very welcome and the locals were all very friendly as well. Good, proper pub. Will definitely be back next time I visit Porthleven.

Rude staff agree with all the other reviews. Staff will write back with whatever reply they chose to deny it, But they are rude rude rude.

Good to find a ‘real pub’ in Porthleven. A bit tucked away from the main harbour side but it’s worth the climb up the hill! Good outdoor seating area with fine sea views. Tastefully decorated inside with some tables in the window bay again with...

Stay in porthleven every year - Love the pub and where it is situated - only recently tried the Sunday lunch and it’s Absolutely amazing - I would say the best from the other restaurants in the village x shall be back

Stunning local pub on the outskirts of a beautiful fishing town, very welcomed, extremely dog friendly and food is thoroughly recommended

Nice local pub, good atmosphere and the food is cooked fresh and really tasty. We will be returning to Porthleven next year and this pub will be on our itinerary again.

Sunday well spent , Food exceptional wasn’t expecting our taste buds to dance they way they did . Roast beef cooked to perfection . Fresh veggies seasoned beautifully and best of Yorkie puds ever ! Friendly staff just a FABULOUS place for food highly recommend...

Great locals pub with great views

Nice little pub has a sea view window

A truly hidden gem!  What a lovely local Cornish pub. Friendly, good beer and brilliant food and music. If they have it on when you visit, you must try their catch of the day.  A lovely cut of hake on a bed of seafood saffron...

Not changed that much since last visit in 2019, other than the owners. Not much sign of a South American theme but a nice variety to the menu. Spicey chicken and chorizo lasagne was a really nice alternative to the normal lasagne. Tofu curry was...

This place brings back so many memories of my upbringing in Porthleven, although attending for a sad event the service and food were fantastic.

Popped in as renting a little house for the week in Loe Bar Road. Didn't want much to eat so ordered Cheesy Chips which were delicious. Beautiful views, friendly atmosphere. Definitely visit.

We were made to feel welcomed, friendly atmosphere, the landlady was very approachable and chatty, good food, great beer 🍻 enjoyable, relaxing time was had by all

Happy relaxed and fun atmosphere.

Based on the recommendation of our AirBnB hosts we tried The Atlantic Inn. The welcome was warm & friendly as was the service. The food, we had Beef stir fry, was fantastic, great flavour everything cooked well, the cauliflower still had a crunch when bitten...

We had a fantastic evening at this pub. A lovely fire was glowing and there was an amazing atmosphere. The staff were so friendly and went out of their way for us. Definitely recommend a visit. We will be back hopefully soon.Fantastic well priced food

Came here as a birthday treat and was disappointed. Food was overpriced so we didn't eat and both the waitresses were abrupt and unaccommodating.

We are reasonably local but make a point of popping in occasionally. Sea views are a bonus. Coal fire very welcome in February. Excellent menu with Brazilian vibe. Great value. Dogs welcome and car parking.

Nice setting but terribly rude staff and car was vandalised over night. Not a great experience overall

Pub open 12 noon toll midnight. Very friendly staff and well presented pub serving a good range of drinks. Outside sitting area also available. Dog friendly .

Friendly staff lovely atmosphere a bonus great views,and on a cold night a blazing fire

We decided to have lunch here as we are local to the area. We were told the chef had only just arrived at 12:15 so might take a while for the order to come. We we’re the only people there. We ordered a marinated pork...

Wonderful locals pub serving excellent food

Great service, great food, great view...thank you 😊

Been here many times. Great food, friendly people, great live music. Love the Sunday afternoon Sunday sessions. Super pub.

We had visited the Atlantic Inn twice on a previous visit to Porthleven and enjoyed our meals so much that we decided to have Sunday lunch here during a long weekend away. I chose the turkey roast and hubby chose roast pork, both came with...

We eat there in July, very accommodating for a late booking for 10 . Great food , good beer etc. Very comfortable winter visits post Christmas just now . Lovely pub .

Great boozer will be there again and again
