A comfortable relaxed place. We both had fish and it was fresh and well cooked. Brill fillet was well seasoned and had a crisp skin.

We booked the table day before, when we arrived they tried to give us a table by the door, (it was a chilly windy eve) Eventually managed to get a table upstairs. Ordered the fish & chips, it arrived burnt, & dried up. Staff knew as nobody asked if everything was OK. WORST FISH & CHIPS WE HAVE EVER HAD.

A spontaneous decision to eat at The Boatshed was a good one. There was a wide selection of fish and other things. The desert was particularly nice. Service was relaxed and friendly.

We arrived as they opened at 6:30 in the hope of a 'walk-in' opportunity. We were not disappointed. The portions were crazy but good value for money. Starters and mains were lovely, we had no room for desert. The staff worked beautifully and collaboratively and you could sense the positive interactions between them, two ladies and a guy, upstairs.

I rarely review but this experience has compelled me to write one. We recently dined as a family of four, plus an infant, and, unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. The food took over 40 minutes to arrive, and we had to follow up with the waitress regarding the delay. When the food finally arrived, it did not meet our expectations. The sea bass, potatoes, and beans lacked flavor, the deep-fried scampi contained water, and the balsamic vinegar tasted more like oil. None of the dishes were properly seasoned, and the chicken goujons were not breaded as anticipated. When the waitress asked for our feedback, we politely mentioned that the food was bland. However, she walked away without acknowledging our concerns and appeared displeased by our comments. We also observed that another couple’s negative feedback was acknowledged, while ours was not. We noticed that we were the only people of color dining at the time and couldn't help but wonder if this might have influenced why our feedback was not addressed. This made us feel uncomfortable. To add to the disappointment, a mandatory service charge was included in the bill, despite the subpar service and food quality. Regrettably, we will not be returning and cannot recommend this restaurant to others.

I made an online booking for 6.45 ( i hate to be late so arrived at 6.30) the place was locked up, another family were outside also so i hoped they would open, they did eventually at 6.35, i suppose this was going to be the theme of the evening. starters and mains ordered and the wait began..... scallops and two garlic mushrooms arrived, the scallops at £17.95 for 6 was a little disappointing but the frozen garlic mushrooms in breadcrumbs were overcooked and wet inside. the mains did not arrive until after 8, i think i was probably past it by that time so did not enjoy mine, the other two were OK. I was hoping for so much more, you live and learn...

Visited on a quiet Tuesday evening, with only one other table eating. Online booking was easy, the waitress friendly, and the food delicious - fresh, good portion sizes, tasty, and nicely presented. Drinks & food were fairly priced too. We enjoyed our visit which, although slightly lacking atmosphere, was very enjoyable. Happy to recommend on a visit to Penzance, and only the shortest walk from the town centre too.

Good food, terrible service. Kids waitressing spending time on their mobile phones instead of attending to customers. Has to get up and walk to the counter to order more drinks, find out what the dish of the day was, get salt and pepper etc. They served out pdduings without cuttlery. Took them 10mins to bring a spoon and they didnt know what a teaspoon was. The chef came out and served another table. Shame as food was great.

Our garlic mushrooms were over cooked and hard to cut although they did knock one of the starters off the bill. The mains were OK. Nothing to write home about. I would have expected a dish listed as a butterfly chicken breast to be both side of the chicken and not just a thin slice of breast meat. What I found most frustrating was the constant banter and jollity coming out of the kitchen. (28th Sep) between the cooks and waiters. I'd rather you all just concentrated on the job and produced nicely coked food.

After reading the reviews I was really looking forward to this meal, however it was a disaster. It took an hour for our mains to come out - luckily we had ordered a sharing starter. The kids nachos arrived with whipped cream rather than sour cream. The poor waitress was in tears people were walking out due to the waiting time...I really hope this is a one off. My fish tasted really lovely, but I wouldn't go back.

Dit was een hele matige ervaring. Waarom er dan toch verschrikkelijk staat, is voornamelijk de prijs. Je gaat letter het schip in bij The Boatshed. Het eten heeft weinig tot geen smaak, is niet gaar en gewoon niet lekker. Je merkt gewoon dat er niet over na is gedacht. Bonen die niet gaar zijn en niet goed gedopt. Frites zonder saus, garnalen die smakeloos zijn en raar gepresenteerd. Er werken alleen maar jongeren in de bediening, waardoor we tijdens ons bezoek ook vrij mild zijn gebleven, maar er moet iemand achter zitten die dit bedenkt. Het jonge personeel kan er dan waarschijnlijk ook maar weinig aan doen. Ik zou ten zeerste afraden om hier te gaan eten, je betaalt echt teveel voor wat je krijgt. Er is weinig tot geen sfeer en het eten is gewoon echt heel matig. Zoek even verder en je vindt iets leukers!

The staff were lovely, but i ordered a starter scallops which were very over cooked/ burnt followed by the main mussels which was brought out with my starter so by the time i got to them they were cold so barely ate them. So was a bit disappointed as was looking forward to this meal as it is a lovely place.

Don’t like leave negative reviews but … I shall regard the terribly slow service as a bad night - although that doesn’t appear to be the case from other reviews. About a dozen things were not done as they should. Most, in isolation, would not be too bad but as a collection it was appalling. In the end, we walked out before our main meal. We should have noticed the early warning. Was told our table number and that it was upstairs and were then left to find it ourselves. But the state of the men’s toilets was a shock. On the floor under the urinals was a mass of cloth - towels? I didn’t dare look too closely Would be bad enough in a stadium but in a restaurant? As a bonus, the hand dryer didn’t work. If you choose to go here, good luck

We visited this restaurant twice and both times the welcome, service and food were great. There is an excellent menu choice featuring local fish. The staff are welcoming friendly and efficient. I would recommend booking as on both evenings that we went it was so...

After reading all the good reviews we had high hopes for this place. Very friendly staff but that’s where the positives stopped, the sharing starter was nice enough although most of the components were out of a jar (olives, sun dried tomatoes etc) so not...

This restaurant is a gem! Located just off the prom, serving wonderful food. I would definitely reccomend the ampules Marinere or the scampi! The staff are thoughtful and offer an incredibly high standard of service. Looking forward to returning next time I am in Cornwall

We were wandering around Penzance on a Monday evening trying to find somewhere average to eat. To our great fortune, we stumbled upon the Boatshed in an unprepossessing area of the waterfront that excited few expectations but delivered a great meal. Special mention should go...

A pleasant welcome, attractive smallish space downstairs (upstairs closed for winter). Reasonable menu selection. Food delicious tho' to be picky, presentation lacking finesse - enormous bowl of soup and hunks of bread as a starter; super Cornish sea food dish but overflowing and veg "heaped'....

We visited the Boathouse on a rainy night between Xmas and New Year. The staff were super friendly and the menu was huge, even for that time of year. Large portions of delicious fish and crispy chips. Highly recommend.

We ordered lobster roll expecting some beautifully presented lobster curled round a tasty dressing. What turned up was a scant tablespoon of chopped overcooked lobster in a cold, cheap, tasteless white finger roll of bread that would have disgraced the bargain shelf of the cheapest supermarket. It was inedible. The side of hispi cabbage was well cooked, thankfully, or I would have left feeling very hungry. There are no loos. You have to use the dimly lit and droughty public loos in the adjacent council carpark. This is possibly the worst restaurant in St. Ives.

Always use Buzz's when visiting the region. Have done for a number of years now. Still the best fish and chips in the south West.

Such a warm welcome from everyone and enjoyed seeing the locals at the bar laughing and enjoying themselves, a real feel of Cornish community about the place. Extensive menu so you don’t have to just stick to fish and chips, fish pie, curried cod and prawns to name but a few other choices. If you can get a window seat above the old lifeboat launch ramp do it. Enjoyed our meal here and a must visit if you are in the area.
