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

If you are in Newquay this place has to be somewhere to go. We have visited twice this week and never been disappointed. Great service, drinks and food. The fish chowder was amazing! Perfect for us as our boys could stay on the sand and play while we waited for food. Tried to visit last October but they were closed. So happy they stayed open this year however they close after tomorrow for Winter. Thank you The Boat house it's been lovely. We will see you again.

We came here for a drink as we were staying at the nearby harbour hotel. We ended up staying for dinner and the rest of the night! I had the pizza and my husband had the burger and both were delicious. Our Atlantic Roots were playing and it added to the great vibe of the place. We loved the terrace as you could still sit outside whilst feeling sheltered even when it's raining. I'll be back to try the sauna!

Lovely find. We really like this place visited several times during our visit. Good choice of drinks and great food to choose from. And the view over the harbour is beautiful. Go visit!!

Lovely find with a fantastic view of the harbour. We came in for drinks once, stayed for food and came back few times during our trip. Menu options are plentiful and food is delicious, will definitely visit when I'm in Newquay again! Keep up the good work!

We ate here twice as very close to where we were staying and both experiences were good. The first time we were a little later arriving so menus had become limited as it is a popular place. Great table on the edge of the harbour with the sea lapping at the wall. We tried two different pizzas and they were lovely and fresh - great flavours. Topped off by a waffle ..which was a little rich for me but my other half loved his and the remainder of mine! The second time we were earlier in the evening and came back for the prawns and salt and pepper squid with a portion of cheesy fries..this time sat on the benches on the beach watching the tide come in. Food was lovely and fresh and full of flavour. Wld highly recommend the walk down, either down the road or down the steps by Harbour Hotel if the tide is low enough. Ordering is easy and it’s just a lovely experience.

No vegetarian options minus a pizza and a wrap. Extremely disappointing when it’s reviewed so well. The idea of it sounds good but… expensive drinks to drink out of plastic.

Great variety and atmosphere. Visited whilst on holiday. The access we used was down a long and steep side road and steps. This routes not idea for everyone. There was a good variety of food and drink from burgers pizza and curry to paella Its not the cheapest but the food is good quality and tasty. You order via a phone app/ online and the food is delivered to your table. A dog friendly location.

Such a cool little place with lots of food choices and nice views over the small harbour and towan beach. There is a barcode on each table which you scan to order what food/drinks you want (like a food market). Dog friendly and something to eat for everyone

I called in here for some lunch with my two children and my girlfriend and her children. The boathouse is well located on Newquay harbour with all the lovely views that go with it. Surrounding the boathouse are several semipermanent Street food vendor is offering a varied selection of food. The best thing about this place is that you can go to a table scan, the QR code and order from all of the vendors who will then deliver straight to your table. On this occasion I ordered a lobster roll which came in a brioche bun with salad and Marie Rose sauce and nachos. The lobster was tasty and fresh and the whole sandwich was a nice lunch. Following this we ordered a waffle with bananas, caramel sauce and ice cream, which was very naughty, but very nice! This is a really relaxed place to eat and was nice when we came at lunchtime. Also nice when we pop back later in the evening for the kids to have a play in the harbour. I recommended food visit when in Newquay.

Great location. Lacked flavour. Buck Becketts lobster roll on brioche was a big disappointment for £15. Needs more effort as fresh fish on the beach should be an experience! Brioche rolls are common place everywhere now, sliced iceberg lettuce felt cheap (more kebab than lobster), a sliced cherry tomato, some cheap thin mayo and some crispy fried onions on top. It would have been so much better with some Helmans, perhaps with a little seasoning herbs or spices mixed in it, maybe chopped pickle and definitely some better salad leaves. Quantity of lobster was ok, came with nachos

Cannot recommend this place enough! We came for dinner on the last night of our holiday and it was the best meal we had. My partner ordered a Philly cheesesteak pizza and I ordered the fish tacos. Both meals were incredible (would highly recommend adding the lemon garlic mayo to the fish tacos, it was dreamy!!) and arrived quickly (around 10-15 mins) even though it was very busy! Location is also beautiful. It is worth mentioning that seating is quite limited here (we were lucky to find a table as soon as we arrived but a queue quickly built after we sat down!) so it may be worth going earlier than you usually would for dinner or you can expect a long wait for seating. However, takeaway options are available too which I think is a great idea. Overall, a fantastic experience and hope to return one day!

1st visit to the boathouse street food, sat an early Saturday evening, so very busy but queued up and soon got seated. We had a part of 6 , easy to order drinks and food , lots of choice food from all over , our favourite was the jerk and also the Indian !! Great service , food really great flavours. Highly recommend if your in the area

Great food and great atmosphere - not cheap but lovely none the less! Large selection of food. Encouraged to order via scanner which can be difficult with poor signal but understandable when it’s busy

What a fun, fantastic venue. We loved it. Great food and great drinks by the water. Loved that people can order differently depending on what they fancy. Dog and children friendly.

Was initially really disappointed to find after years of visiting Newquay that The Boathouse as we previously knew it no longer existed, wasn’t too sure about the idea of multiple street food vendors. Having said that, once I saw the set up and ordered from a couple of the vendors my mind is firmly changed. What an excellent idea ! Lots of little independent businesses with a great range of affordable (and very tasty) food and drink options. Turns the Harbour area into a contemporary food and drink venue that everyone can enjoy.

Found this on our first day in Newquay, what a brilliant little quirky place. A few independent street food restaurants which you can order from using one menu. Food is absolutely delicious and delivered quickly! We have been 3 times in 2 days already, would...

Excellent! Great range of food, delivered quickly and to a high standard. Great experience, highly recommend.

We ate here a couple of times on holiday and everything was fab: pizzas, fish and chips, curry and desserts. Main food came out hot, all served promptly via the app ordering. Pina colada was also great! 🍹 Service is friendly and efficient. 👏 Great...

If you like pop-ups, you will love the Boathouse. The location is superb, especially when the tide is right in. We had burritos, which were very tasty. The kids had burgers, which they said were brilliant. You order on the app, food and drink came...

We visited on the RLNI fundraiser day at the harbour so it was very busy. Saying that we got a table straight away and ordered drinks and food through the app. Both the food and drinks came quickly from the various locations to the table...

Previous to our visit on Wednesday 26th July we had 3 amazing meals and experiences at The Boathouse. However, this visit was a complete disaster. The service and general competence of the staff was shocking and unacceptable. Yes there was 12 of us but two...

We love coming here on a Friday after work for one beer before we we go home and put the kids to bed. A very peaceful location, really relaxed with stunning views. Some friends visited from London recently so we took them here and ordered...

Poor value for money. The lobster had rolled out of the roll, the crab had done a runner out of the salad and the salt and pepper squid could have substituted for Lewis Hamilton's tyres. The location was great though and beer pleasant.

7 of us ate here one night with a large dog. Fantastic idea, lots of different vendors serving anything from Pizza, Curry, Fish, Burgers even Lobster!! All freshly cooked not an empty plate. A wide range of drinks can be ordered both non alcoholic and...

Came here after our adult children found it and have to say the venue and food was excellent, all fresh and really tasty food and the range of different vendors and flavours there is something for everyone, only fly in the ointment was using the...

We have been Coming for a while and watched the evolution of this place. It’s a fab venue and clearly catching on locally. The inside is now open and you can order direct from each cabin not if the app if you want to. The...

Excellent selection of shellfish, also fish and chips sushi and waffles. Great staff. A must visit if you come to Newquay

What an absolute great find right on the beach. We used 4 different vendors, there was something for everyone. The seafood platter was out of this world. The best we've have ever had. Can't wait to return.

An awesome little space, easy ordering from a selection of great food trucks, delivered to me with a pint of rattlers. The bacon burger was to die For. All with a beautiful view of the bay. A hidden gem worth the decent down the hill!

Timing is everything! This tasty street food venue gets rather busy. Tried getting there early for dinner but not all the vendors were open. Then went late and the vendors kept closing due to how many orders they had! Otherwise great service and food! Great...

What a fantastic concept, great food in beautiful surroundings. The food was well cooked and tasted great, despite my family ordering from multiple kitchens it all arrived within a couple of minutes of each other. The menu will cater for most tastes and budgets. Will...

Great place to eat, lots of choices of different cuisines and lovely cocktails we had the strawberry Bellini best one I’ve had. Crab salad and chips was delicious as was the jerk chicken quesadillas. We watched a seal in the harbour and with the death...

Fantastic atmosphere near the harbour and a great scene for what it is. Massive shout out to Bubbles Fish Shop. Absolutely delicious fish dishes and can't wait to try more.

Really enjoyed our visit here, thought the concept was good and all of the food we tried was great (I think we used all of the vendors on the day apart from the sweet ones as we were a bit late) Nice place to sit...

The Boathouse was one of the highlights from our recent holiday in Cornwall. I don't know what it was but it just gave instant relaxing holiday vibes. There is selection of small local food outlets which change weekly (some of which are permanent). You can...

An amazing venue for food and for drinks. We began by being greeted by a charming bartender in bright sunglasses who immediately complimented my American accent and made us feel more than welcome through conversation which continued as we returned to the bar each time...

The best restaurant in town, please take time to walk down to the harbour and seek this place out. You wont be disappointed. A fantastic idea to be able to select from 4/5 different menus, in our family some had curry, some had waffles for...

I always try and make a visit when in newquay, fabulous seafood platter, 🦞 lobster, muscles, fish, squid and prawns this time and it was fantastic, washed down with a cocktail, when we arrived there were no seats but they were very quick to accommodate...

OMG!!!!! Had the fruits de mer sharing fis platter. Was meant to be for 2 people but we had it between the 3 of us and we still couldn’t eat it all. Absolutely delicious!!!

We ate here a couple of times while we were in Newquay for the week. Lovely to eat with a view of the harbour. All the food was really good, we tried the pizzas, fish tacos, smoked mackerel salad and crab sandwiches. Also had great...

Amazing! We had some Indian food… all veggie, all beautifully served, and the best bhajis… soooo delish. And a pizza with pumpkin, pumpkin seeds and little sage flowers. Delightful.

Incredible food! We are from three separate street food carts and it was all amazing. Fabulous location, sheltered and beautiful. Nice quite side of the beach.

No menu ,can only order through app ,app not that clear ,shocking wait times ,no one tells you there's a delay in orders ,when I enquired at the hut was greeted by a very unpleasant chef who simply said he was to busy,it will come...

Awful service rude and I by staff . Waited 30mins just for a portion of completely overpriced chips , I asked for some ketchup and was told it was £1.50 just for some sauce . I’m local and will never go back . Appalling apart...

Great location overlooking the harbour. Disappointed with Thai food, ran out of rice so had noodles but not a good meal. So much fish sauce in the meal, tasted like a fish dish, either that or cooking fish and chicken in same wok. 4 tiny...

Food was lovely and when ordered came in a really quick timer. Plenty of food vendors on offer with a range of cuisines, from cocktails, to Japanese to Pizzas. We started with drinks from the main restaurant, reasonable price for a harbour side establishment. I...

Just wasted £80 here this evening. You can’t access the menu if your phone is on EE and there was no internet, apparently it was down. The Fish tacos were a real disappointment. The tacos were straight from the packet not cooked, and there was...

We started off with a couple of pints of cider in the restaurant. We then had a look at the menu. We wanted a few picky bits for lunch. We ordered the cheesy garlic bread from Salt Yard Pizzas (so yummy) with aioli (the best...

I was really looking forward to coming back here after a great visit last summer. We arrived later in the evening around 745 and food was served until 9 only to be told by 1 vendor they were already closing down. Yes it was late...

Brilliant food from all of the vendors we ordered from. 1st time down this year and it was lovely to have some indoor seating also. Will definitely be back.

The lobster roll was an overpriced joke. Cheap horrible roll and the smallest amount of lobster I have ever seen. Not very tasty. Having had quite a few fresh lobster rolls from other places, this was very poor and an insult to such a good...

Really great concept. We had Thai and it was delicious! Very child friendly and lots of choice. We used the app which made it very straightforward.

I really enjoyed this dining experience and am so glad I made sure to go! We went for lunch and it was quite busy being a bank holiday weekend. I'm not sure if it is wheelchair friendly as we used the stairs, even with a...

We visit here every year, lovely food and great selection that varies each time we come. Not to mention the gorgeous location😻

I was told about this place from friends who strongly rated it so my expectations were high. On first impressions I thought the place was pretty basic and it had a strange disconnected vibe. I suppose that’s what happens when you have lots of different...

What a fab little place! Looked like it should be a fancy seafood restaurant but instead was full of street food vendors but all delivered to your table! Ordering is via a QR code was alright for us but can imagine would be difficult for...

Absolutely insane food and vibe, sat near the most amazing view and with a varied selection of amazing street food. We enjoyed this so much that we came back 3 times for different foods! We first had the bao bun from Fat Cat and it...

We visited post an early evening performance at the Old Hall. Great food, huge drink selection with wonderful friendly service. Excellent value, definitely go back when in the area. First class!! Congratulations to all the staff making the evening so enjoyable!!

Nice location, nice idea, but had to wait 30 minutes for a coffee and that is after having to go to the vendor to ask where our order was. I am sure that this is not typic of the other outlets here but if you...

A lovely summer day wandering around Newquay. Walked along the beach & found this brilliant pub/ restaurant. But they refused to serve us. It's all Scan me codes, OR. The whole experience of a meal out is now destroyed by, no service, stabbing around the...

The food is lovely and the setting is great, I’m a local so have been many times but every time I go I swear I will never return because the ordering process is so painful. You order via a QR code which is all quite...

Burger 10/10 Chips 9 / 10 Prawns 10/10 Onion bhaji 10/10 Wings 6/10 Tacos 8/10 Fish n chips 6/10 Would definitely go back ordering through app was fast and the food was solid. The burger I would give 100 out of 100 it was the...

Visited with husband and two daughters in the evening. Wasn’t sure what to expect based on the reviews but we were very pleasantly surprised. We ordered from the Mexican (fish tacos and Mexican snack box) Thai (chicken pak choi with noodles), Indian (chicken kebab in...

Lovely location and outdoor seating area at the harbour. We visited on a sunny day so made a difference to our experience. We ordered a katsu curry which was kindly split into two portions for me and my child, and we ordered the bang bang...

First day in Newquay after long drive. Great vibe here. Awesome food, brilliant atmosphere and so cool. Very easy to order and pay at table with a smartphone. The kids loved it and it made us grown ups feel like we had arrived on holiday.

We returned to the boathouse after loving it as a restaurant. It adapted through Covid so is now a hub of street food vendors, seating and beautiful setting. Staff are super friendly, the ordering system makes it so so easy to order from multiple vendors...

We came for both lunch & dinner on Saturday! The food & variety was just amazing, but the portion sizes & quality was impeccable! The moules by bubbles & burger by gourmet was sensational! The only negative was the pizza as we were unfortunately their...

I have to say I was disappointed when I saw the ordering by phone off a QR code at the table … but it just worked. The three of us all had different meals from different vendors but it was all ordered in one easy...

We have eaten here twice, and the service by the waitress on both occasions was exceptional 100% first class, great food and service from Bubbles Fish bar Compliments to Jack the chief 👍

Lovely spot for some street food and a drink, very chilled vibe, and great food. Ordering on the app is easy and there is a wide choice of street food. Located on the edge of Newquay harbour (literally!)

Great food with lots of different choices. The chicken tikka In naan bread was amazing and the pizzas were a good size and also tasted brilliant: lovely sitting outside we spent the whole Afternoon there.

It was a busy Friday evening but we got seating relatively quickly after queuing for a short while. It was well managed and appeared to be organised. You scan QR code for the menus from different restaurants, type in your table number and order whatever...

Awesome selection of World favourites. Ordered on the web and the food arrived before I’d even done the drinks order. Super efficient, great food, & perfect shady balcony for a summery lunch. Recommended by our coasteering instructor Matt @ Cornish Wave- spot on thanks Matt!

Clever idea if you all want different types of food. Mexican, Indian, pizzas, burgers, waffles, fish and chips. Just be aware that ordering from different stands means meals come at different times. Seemed to be a queue when we got there but we were seated...

There's something for everyone! Staff couldn't have been more helpful and the prices were reasonable.

An absolute gem! The food was incredible and there was something for everyone. We were a family of ten and ordered a range of food including the tacos, burger, pizza crab sandwich… all of which was simply delicious. It was such a fab atmosphere and...

This is located right in the harbour and the view is fantastic. It is not clear what it is but appears to be a collection of different food providers with the Boathouse being the most dominant and you decide what you want using the QR...

There are couple of stalls serving various cuisines which is great so everyone has choices. Great atmosphere by the harbour. Especially love the seafood stall with fresh ingredients and had a fab meal there.

Nous gardions un excellent souvenir de ce restaurant où nous avions mangé de très bons plats à base de poisson...

Visited with partner and child for dinner. Was lured in from the beach by delicious smells. We ordered burger and chips, Thai green curry with rice, 1x spring rolls, 1x chicken satay, 3x soft drinks which came to £43! Partner enjoyed green curry. Burger was...

Such a lovely night 💞 Came down with 3 of my mates and all our food came really quickly and with a smile 😄. Bar staff came over and asked if everything was alright and was super helpful 🥰 Overall a great experience

Food is ok, I wouldn't bother walking down again for that. Shame that they couldn't do more with a great location. The staff are also quite obnoxious and pretty awful.

Gorgeous location right on the harbour see front, what excuse can you possibly have for not serving great sea food. Multiple “street food” vendors wide choice of food(not cuisine). It’s super super average, plastic glasses, food served in cardboard boxes, staff who have no idea...

We loved it here on our family holiday. Lots of different options, all very good. Gluten free for the members of the party with intolerances. Great family fun dining.

Visited this lunchtime after spotting the pop up food stalls. Absolutely superb set up. Delicious food and drinks from a variety of the vendors. Lovely views and nice chilled vibe and clean toilets. We will return.

When I walked down to the boathouse I was really looking forward to it, situated right on the beach with a relaxed and fun atmosphere I was really excited to sit down and have tuck in to some lovely food in the sun, this was...

Looks good at first, you have to have a smart phone as you can't order anything without going through the QR code. After about 15 minutes of hassle getting the QR, we ordered. Drinks were fairly quick, food less than average and overpriced. We moved...

Recently visited Newquay and went here twice. First time was good second time was terrible. Ordered two Pizzas and one Tacos. One Pizza took 45 minutes to come, was 30 minutes after the food for the rest of the party and wasn’t cooked whilst the...

The idea is great but the execution is rubbish! This is a beautiful setting but the food is overpriced and underwhelming. Tonight we had a small box of butter chicken from one vendor for £16 and the worse fish and chips I’ve ever had for...

Had a meal here with the mrs, both went for Thai. I had a massaman and my mrs had a Thai green - both were amazing, flavour was perfect! However one little annoyance was that the potatoes in my massaman were pretty much solid.

A great view of the harbour and lots of choice, which was perfect for our family of four. While the kids and I had Chicken Tikka, which was full of flavour, my wife had fish and chips. There are multiple shacks that serve different types...

Visited here twice during our week’s stay in Cornwall. Amazing views over the harbour and beach with plenty of food choices. Lovely relaxed vibe, a great way to spend an evening!

Having got over the fact the boathouse seafood restaurant had gone ( use to be our favourite in Newquay) and replaced with a fantastic multiple street food vendors what a great idea we ordered from the boat house restaurant some fantastic chips and some fried...

We visited twice during our stay in Newquay and both times were disappointed. Drink service from the bar was quick and friendly but the food from the different vendors was poor service and bad quality. 1) Mexican street food, the Tacos are tiny and dry...

Good place to eat or collect food; large variety of food between pizzas, Mexican, Thai, seafood; it was really tasty and good proportions too

This place is a hidden gem!! We had some of the best food ever here! Honestly no where compares to it we came back twice and tried most things from curry to kebabs, Mexican to pizza it was stunning!

Lovely setting overlooking the harbour. Lobster nice and fresh as were the prawns. Good service. Dog friendly but we did sit outside.

Lite krångligt med att skanna qr-koder för att beställa eftersom varje beställning tar lite tid att genomföra om man inte...

Achar Indian Street foods Cheddar & Chilli Naan is not to be missed! Great atmosphere, not a bad view either X

Very poor choice of seafood. From a harbour street food place I would sincerely expect more variety of choice on seafood plates.
