The Cornish Arms in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Lovely atmosphere, amazing pizza and excellent beers! I would 100% recommend stopping by for a relaxing evening, outstanding service from staff !!

pizza’s were amazing aswell as the wide range of beer and ciders from local brewery’s. The new team which have taken over this year are lovely and welcoming . Definitely stop by and give it all a taste!!

What a fantastic pub! Didn’t plan to come here but so glad we did. So much nicer than the pubs in Port Isaac. Landlords, staff and friendly were so friendly and welcoming. Great pizzas and ales and great service too. Hope to come back soon!

Its OPEN!! The Cornish Arms in Pendoggett is truly a gem! The atmosphere here is fantastic—warm, welcoming, and full of character. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, you’ll feel right at home. The selection of craft beers is outstanding, offering something for every palate, from numerous IPAs, ales and interesting lagers. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable about the beers they serve and always happy to share recommendations. Friendly and approachable, they make sure every guest has a great experience. If you're in the area, this pub is an absolute must-visit!

A great local pub that is now OPEN after a recent change of ownership (July 2024). Serves a very good range of craft beer from local micro-breweries. Available to taste in 1/3 pint measures so you can sample the full range! The new owner is a lovely guy & very welcoming, knowledgeable & helpful. Just a short walk/drive from Port Isaac / Port Gavern on the B3314 - make sure you give it a try - you won't be disappointed! We'll definitely be coming back...

With so many local places closed down for the winter it was a relief to find a pub open and serving food. It was a bonus to find an initiative in place offering reduced food on a Thursday, though I don’t know how long this initiative will be running for. The food was average, perfectly edible but not of restaurant quality. The beer was good and there were plenty of tables to choose from. We’d visit this place again if we were in the area.

Don't have the stew. No gravy or liquid and the meat was tough. Masb was cold. When we asked for gravy, they served a tepid brown water. Adding a photo. Dark gravy was with a different meal. Light brown was the tepid brown water I was talking about. This is the only bad review I have ever had to write. Avoid at all costs.

My husband and I were accompanied by our dog here in September 2023 to celebrate our wedding anniversary and my birthday. We both had steak, which was one of the best we have eaten, followed by desert and coffee and a couple of glasses of prosecco. The service was excellent from the moment we got there to the time we left. I would highly recommend a visit you will not be disappointed.

If I could give less than one star I would. I am not one to put a bad review on or complain if it wasn’t a true representation. If anything, it always feels good to be writing a lovely review!l however, I really can’t say the same for this pub. It was my brothers 19th birthday and we are here on holiday. We have been coming to Cornwall for the last 5/6 years and have experienced different types of Pubs and have found some truly lovely Cornish pubs with great pub grub! This one was the worst we have ever been to…. The pub itself has a lovely feel but when we ordered food, we did not expect for the Mac & Cheese to be sat in water and for the burger buns to have mould on. We told the girl who was on the bar and she couldn’t have been more apologetic and took them back for them to be re-done. They came back, the chips had been microwaved as were soggy, the burger buns were stale and the burger was red raw in the middle. My partners was barely even browned on the outside. We were all so disappointed and put off our meal which had now ruined my brothers birthday. The waitress apologised and said all food would be taken off the bill which we explained, it was not about the money but about the fact the night had been ruined. The chef then came out and explained there was a trainee in the kitchen tonight and had seen the food and sincerely apologised. He said he was filling out paperwork and wasn’t supervising. It has truly ruined the night as, due to the time in the evening, there is no where else serving food. The owners response was appalling and didn’t even speak to us personally. The only positive I would say would be the lovely waitress who must now been extremely embarrassed.

We were staying locally and used this pub twice for food and drinks . Lovely pub , wonderful building and overall staff were really good . Atmosphere in pub was very friendly and food superb . We will definitely be going back next year .

Even though we had to sit outside on typical cold British spring evening the warm welcome at this wonderful little find more than compensated. Great food and friendly service. Thank you to Sandra for finding and returning my wife’s forgotten handbag. We’ll definitely remember to return The Cornish Arms.

We stopped here for a few drinks at 3pm and ended up staying for dinner at 5pm! Superb Mojitos made us stay along with amazing crab dishes. The owners here also have the Krab Pot in Port Isaac and their crab dishes are superb as well as a hard to finish 12oz gammon and crispy buttermilk chicken served with mac and cheese. We loved the crab and ginger tart and the crab cakes too. Can't wait to come back and try the Margaritas! Thanks a lot for a few great days in your garden

Cornish Arms has beautiful gardens, amazing food and great service... pints of Doom and Guinness perfect too. Cran dishes in particular are worth travelling for. Looks like a beautiful old world interior bar and we will be back to experience the accommodation in Summer when we're allowed!

Was staying around the area for few days and went to the Cornish arms everyday as the food was so fantastic and they do a great pint would highly recommend this pub

We visited in May so outside pub and dining experience. Great place, food, atmosphere and staff were wonderful, we ate or drank here most evenings whilst staying in a nearby cottage. We would certainly recommend it. I loved the vegan Thai curry ( even though I’m not a vegan eater) Special thanks to the brilliant chef and Joel our wonderful waiter.

Visited upon reopening following the easing of lockdown restrictions in April 2021. Really nice garden with picnic tables and big parasols for shade. Although the garden was very busy, we had some lovely pints and great food. Crab mac and cheese, crab linguine and beef burgers were all excellent. Very pleasant and accommodating staff - will certainly be back again!

Called in for tea where we had crab salad and a crab & prawn linguine. The salad was very well presented on a board and lots of it. The linguine was plentiful. Both were very tasty and satisfying after a day of exploring.Very good Doombar beer and Rattler cider.Joel our server was friendly, but not overly so, and attentive ensuring all was ok and brought a water bowl for our dog.Would definitely come here again

Delicious lemon light battered fish and chips - yummy flaky fish. My daughter had the crab mac and cheese which she enjoyed too. Nice area to sit outside and not many pubs open in the area before 17 May.

We had a short break here last week and were the first guests since opening after the most recent lockdown. Adrian, Sandra and son were so welcoming and friendly. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Delicious dinner on our first evening, crab and prawn linguine. Breakfast cooked by Adrian also delicious on both days. First visited the Cornish Arms 35 years ago and it was a cosy haven then in filthy weather, and so it was again. We do hope that things get easier as the country gets through COVID. Thanks Adrian and Sandra!

Stayed here for 5 nights just before lockdown on 2nd November 2020. It was absolutely faultless in terms of ambience, cleanliness, covid awareness and location was great. We parked up and caught the bus to Port Isaac which saved trying to find parking and the long walk to the main car park from the village. The room was a lovely Queen room with horse wallpaper and a four poster bed. It was comfortable and cute. The breakfast was cooked from scratch by the landlord every morning and he provided a great bit of information about the area and the village and surroundings. We ate dinner there on 4 of the 5 nights and the night we went elsewhere we were left disappointed as the food in the Cornish Arms is so good. the menu is fish and vegan focused which suited us and the crab and prawn linguine and fish and chips were exceptional as was the vegan curry and vegan burger. We found it to be great value for money and the room was a steal at 130 per night as we stayed 1 night before a mile away and paid 240 for a much smaller room which was not clean. We loved the staff they are very helpful and happy in what they do and it shows. Highly recommend this and we have booked again for April in the hope we will see Doc Martin filming

Myself and my partner stayed here for just the one night on a weekend getaway after the first lockdown. The pub was beautiful and quaint and perfectly positioned for our visit into port Issac. The staff were friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean and the COVID precautions made us feel really safe. The food was stunning and the bed was super comfy. I would definitely recommend this beautiful inn. We will certainly stay here again if we are in the area. If I could make any suggestions it would just be to warn customers that the inn doesn’t actually open until 3pm (not just the check in) so if you arrive earlier than that then you can’t sit in the bar and have a drink while you wait as you might hope to be able to do. It’s not a problem as long as you are aware in advance

Really warm welcome from landlord and staff. Beautiful traditional room with a sumptuous and super comfy bed. COVID precautions perfect. We had previously eaten elsewhere but the food delivered around us looked yummy, with hearty portions and a good selection of pub classics and a couple of twists on the classics. Thankyou for a really lovely stay. We will be back x

Definitely recommend a visit, great service, nothing to much trouble, Irish hospitality at its finest, looked for the grumpy Irishman, definitely couldn’t find him.

We were greeted with a lovely warm welcome from the owners We really enjoyed our stay friendly staff comfortable rooms & great atmosphere Both our breakfast & evening meals were first class Would highly recommend this Inn great location

If there is One word to Describe this place it is fantastic the room the food the service the Location the price. All brilliant

on arrival we were asked to pay ( before seeing the room, number 4 as mentioned in other reviews ) There was a constant hum which together with traffic noise most of the night meant a sleepless night. Also, no bottled water, no phone signal, no internet , tv remote not working,shampoo dispenser not working. listened to next doors tv due to poor soundproofing between rooms.All this for a mere £117 !!! In comparison with our other nights in cornwall this was ,by a long way, very poor value for money

Had a 4 days stay at this establishment and I must say our experience was fantastic, the host and owner of the establishment along with all his staff are some of the friendliest people around , the food was unbelievable and the location great for all venues , Port Issacs , Padstow , Rock, Newquay, a must stay if you want the whole package. Mr & Mrs Ware

The host kindly accepted a late booking for dinner and we got a very friendly welcome on arrival. We had the crab Tian followed by crab linguini, both of which were excellent, fresh tasting and just the right amount of chilli. Then treacle tart for dessert, which was delicious with Callestick Farm ice cream.

A character place , clean and comfy , good food and great customer service . Easy parking . We stayed four nights and would recommend.

Booked here for a 4 night break - great location just outside Port Isaac - the inn was cosy although quieter than we expected late evening. The room was pleasant, clean and comfortable but basic for the cost, however, Cornwall seems generally expensive. Room would benefit a bit of a move around to accommodate a small dressing table shelf and stool as could not use mirror when drying my hair or putting make up on. A small touch but would make such a difference. Ate in the restaurant bar most evenings - unfortunately little choice if you didnt eat fish - food was cooked and presented nicely albeit a tad pricey, however, that seems to be Cornwall prices again ! The breakfasts were plentiful with good choice, served in a bright breakfast room at very reasonable times. The staff here were wonderful whether just having a drink, having breakfast or eating in the evening - nothing too much trouble and provided a second to none service - this made our break worthwhile and felt valued customers. Whatever the inn lacked was certainly made up by the staff team running it, which gave an overall very pleasant stay.

Our 4 day short break for my wife's birthday started off poorly having driven for 6 hours through driving rain to be told we had to sit on the stairs for 45 mins until the 3 o'clock opening as opposed to being let into our room to rest up, then book in. However, the Inn is comfortable, the room was clean and well appointed although tv reception is intermittent due to a poor signal for the area. The staff are lovely people, breakfast is excellent. The weak point is the evening meal which applies the same brief menu all week and requires a quality upgrade. The crab tien as a starter for £9 a time requires more than a teaspoonful of minced crab on the same amount of squashed avocado!. Similarly a cheeseburger usually comes with the cheese, not £1.50 extra for the cheese and melted under the grill on top of the burger NOT dry grated cheese under the meat patty which makes the whole meal practically inedible!!. Overall the Inn is a comfortable place to stop for a break but look elsewhere for your evening meal!

Fab little place.Warm and friendly welcome.Whilst the menu wasn't massively extensive - ALL of it was tasty.Family had steak - locally sourced (and you could tell), and cooked to perfection.I asked for a recommendation and went for that - crab and prawn linguine: absolutely divine!Fish and chips, fish pie also top notch.And they also had a children's menu which went down well and nicely presented.Would definitely come again when we're next in the area. Thank you!

Staying in Trelights and found this wonderful, family run friendly pub with great food if you like a fantastic steak pay thi place a visit.

Me and my family came here last week for a few drinks and some food we had a great time food was excellent nice selection at the bar will definitely be back

We came back here again after a lovely experience last year. The food was delicious we had a crab and prawn linguine, crabby mac and fresh cod and chips. The staff are really friendly and welcoming and explained it was table service only and we must wear masks if leaving the table. Tables are well spaced out with beautiful leather dining chairs and we felt safe and well looked after by the staff. It is obviously a family run business and that makes the difference, these people really care. Brought our dog who was fed too many treats and spoiled rotten by the bar man. Highly recommend

We were staying in an Airbnb nearby and visited this pub several times, sometimes for food, other times just drink. We were blessed my good weather so drank outside in the lovely beer garden - you generally had to book to get a table inside. Good selection of drinks on the bar and friendly bar staff. The food was ok - typical pub fare, if you're expecting gastropub style food, you might be disappointed. If you're looking for a decent local pub to drink and fuel up on pub grub, you won't go far wrong with the Cornish arms.

We thought this looked like a lovely quaint place to stop for a drink. We were ‘greeted’ by a VERY RUDE Irishman who barked orders at us and told us we could sit at any of the tables in the main bar area because they were all reserved. The kitchen didn’t open until 5:30 and it was barely 4:30 and we had intended to stop for one drink.There were 20 plus tables free... I’m afraid we aren’t prepared to be spoken to like that or to be made to sit in a corner of an empty pub. We left and we won’t be returning.I think in the current climate that this sort of treatment of customers is foolhardy but good luck to him if treating people this way is paying off.

Visited twice this week while staying at a nearby Airbnb within walking distance. Good food, good beer, friendly service. Nice outdoor seating. Dog friendly. Nice pub.

Booked a table for 3 for evening meal as I had not visited since new ownership.Well laid out tables & chairs and maximum of 2 people at bar. Very friendly and efficient staff, good service of tasty food served very hot. Nice atmosphere making it a traditional pub. Good evening enjoyed by us all.

We was staying at a nearby cottage for a week and visited this pub four times for an evening meal. The pub had plenty of character and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food was good on the whole and the place had a nice ambience.

Excellent stay at this very welcoming Cornish Pub all staff very pleasant, rooms comfortable. Food very nice

We’ve been staying at an Airbnb close by and have been to the pub for two meals and drinks in the evening. The food is excellent and the staff are really nice and very accommodating. A sod friendly pub which was great for us as we had our 5 month old puppy with us! Highly recommended

Really enjoyed our evening at the Cornish Arms. One of the nicest meals had in a pub restaurant for a long time. The mussels were amazing and such a huge portion, the seafood linguini was also lovely. The food was fresh and plentiful and the service was friendly. We sat in a lovely room which allowed social distancing. Would highly recommend a visit here if you are in the area, lovely food and a great pub.

We had booked into “The Cornish Arms“ for an early evening family meal. We were pleased to see the pub supporting the “eat out to help out” scheme to encourage mid week diners. We ordered scampi tacos which were a soft flour wrap rather than a taco, filled with refried beans. salad & deep fried scampi. Not a common or palatable combination. It came with dips and chips and was ok to fill up on but not tasty & the refried beans did not compliment the scampi. We did not try starters or puddings as our table was required back within 90 minutes of the booked time and we felt this gave a rushed feeling to the meal and we felt uncomfortable to order further items. Based on this visit unfortunately could not recommend it.

Absolutely fabulous, thanks for squeezing us in last minute. So glad you did amazing food great welcome from staff a delicious pint of rattlers with my homemade fish pie delicious, could do with a bit more kids selection would be better please like a kids fish pie or fish and chips etc, even made room for a sticky toffee pudding mmmm yum

Stayed for 2 nights; we booked a standard room at 120 a night as nothing else was available, though we expected a little more for 240, it was so, so basic! Bathroom was very grubby; splashes all over the walls. The room was just very bland; a feature wall with forest wallpaper didn't detract from the very basic room with the smallest tele on the wall, which we put on to drown out the noise of a fan/ generator??? Or else the late night chat of guests/ staff sat drinking at the pagoda below our bedroom window till late. Evening meal/ breakfast first morning was nice, probably because the boss man was serving/ overlooking, though the food the second night amd breakfast was not so good. We asked for crispy bacon, but it came out cremated! I had higher expectations of this place after reading positive reviews and paying 120 a night. Maybe we caught it on a bad few days. The owner/ manager??? appeared very rushed, with no landlady around, as stated in earlier reviews. We didn't like to request anything further as it didn't seem like he has time on his hands!

Thank you to the team at Cornish Arms especially Adrian and Sandra the landlords who we got to know. Fantastic couple who own it, Sandra was so helpful from the moment we booked it. It was cosy spacious and our room was very special as we had the big room for us, a tv in each room and then a door into a jack and Jill room which could be twin beds or 1 king depending on how many children you have we put it together as one ! Then that leads into a big bathroom.We felt at home stayed for 4 nites, fab atmosphere great location and food. Such kind people and very generous breakfast. We will miss you, our boy will miss SnapsJuliette,Warren and Harley

We are fans of Rick Stein and the restaurant at the Cornish Arms, just outside Port Issac did not disappoint. With a good size restaurant and external seating for warmer times it is ideal for parties both small and large. The staff were friendly, welcoming and attentive. The food quality was high, we had Scampi, Cod Curry and Hamburger and portion sizes generous. Followed by 3 portions of Sticky Toffee Pudding, it was a treat that was reasonably priced given the above. We had a few drinks afterwards with the locals in the relaxed bar area. With plenty of free parking and being dog friendly, what’s not to like?

The people that own and run this pub are absolutely fabulous people! They make you feel so at home and like you’ve known them for years! The food is very classic pub food delivered with a smile! Can’t say enough lovely things about this place. Can’t wait to go back

We stayed at the Cornish Arms for 5 nights friendly, homely & welcoming from the time we arrived, great food ( breakfast & evening meals) lovely rooms. Owners and all staff went out of their way to make us feel part of the family nothing too much trouble. We’d highly recommend it and would stay their again.

Wow Thank you for a truly fantastic meal. From walking in our experience was top class. Our service like our food was perfect. Highly recommend the fish burger we will be coming back for more.

After a 3 day stay in Pendogget we visited the Cornish Arms twice for an evening meal, amazing food the menu is great and the quality of food is outstanding.Nellie and Jo so friendly and really make the pub.Thank you for a great timeJames and Sam

Outstanding food and service, staff incredible and friendly and accommodating with our children. Will visit again definitely. As holiday home owners, we’ve included this place in our eating guide for our guests. Well done to all at the Cornish Arms.

With a couple days off of work, I’d booked a spontaneous nights stay at the Cornish Arms to visit family that lived nearby and was looked after so well by all the staff that I decided to stay for an extra night. I stayed in room 7 which had been recently refurbished, it was spacious and well decorated with a few little nautical nods towards the nearby coastal villages. I was provided with a fantastic fried breakfast on both mornings at a time to suit me by the very accommodating landlord Adrian. The pub also has a brilliant evening food menu which I took advantage of on both evenings of my stay! Overall an extremely pleasant stay with friendly locals & very welcoming staff providing a nice traditional country pub atmosphere. Will be back to stay again before too long.

Called in here for food and drink after Christmas very friendly pub warm cosy big open fires extremely good fish and chips dog friendly large gardens to the front very well maintained good choice of beer ales and spirits will definitely return

We stayed here to be near Port Isaac, which is a short distance away across the fields. the walk is said to be about 45 minutes , but in winter it was extremely wet , boggy and difficult to find , taking more like two hours. the pub itself is typical cornish, fairly rough and ready. The rooms are clean but uninspiring. Bed was comfortable. shower room a bit last century. not very convenient for anywhere in cornwall unless you have a car, the local taxis are expensive and non-existent.

Had a beautiful 7 nighy stay over Christmas in a huge room with an antique four poster bed. Absolutely fantastic. Bathroom fully renovated as well. Great cooked breakfast made by the owner himself every morning. Very friendly staff and locals at the bar are very welcoming and full of tales of times past. Good pub food well cooked and presented large portions.Highly recommended with free parking bus stop opposite which goes to Port Isaac one way and Tintagel in the other direction. Alternatively we walked to Port Gaverne down the back fields which was beautiful. Very good location but the room was the star of the show thanks for a great time

Would highly recommend. Lovely spacious, clean room. Yummy breakfast and really friendly manager. Great communication, offering us an early check-in wihich was much appreciated.

We dropped in for food with our family and friends a few times while on holiday in the area, the owners are lovely people who went out of their way to make sure everyone was enjoying food and drink and the pub itself. Menu has a good range of items, all of which were cooked to order. It's nice to see good pub food on the menu with good portion size too, so many have gone the nouvelle cuisine route.

Went in here for a midweek evening meal. I called to book a table, but when we arrived, there were only 3 other couples actually there.

We have just spent three nights at The Cornish Arms, and I want to thank all the staff for making us so welcome. There is plenty of space inside to eat and have a pint. There was a good atmosphere when you wanted it, and then the bar did wind down early once all the diners had left. The bedroom was clean and certainly sufficient for our needs. The breakfast was all you needed and the chef was flexible to any requirements. Thank you.

All the locals have gone dosnt care about bar and regulars only that the rooms are filled thats what he said to a local shocking!not homely like it used to be,its now cold and unwelcoming, dont go in drink at the poldark in delabole its amazing all the locals from the cornish arms are there and adrain and tracy are amazing warm and welcoming hosts and. Food and rooms are fantastic x its gonna be a long skint winter for the cornish arms

Lovely friendly village pub with fabulous beer garden, owners and staff couldn't be more helpful, very friendly locals. Food choices good, fresh tasty well cooked food we will be back for sure

On arrival, the so called land “lady” that’s a joke, requested our room payment immediately without even letting us inspect the accommodation.The first night of 3,we went to bed after the long drive to Cornwall looking forward to a good nights sleep. As soon as we got into bed at about 11pm we noticed a constant drone through the room which sounded like a large fan motor running all night. I complained the next evening to the landlord who did nothing. This went on for 3 nights and the owners could not be contacted because they didn’t live in the pub. This noise was in rooms 4/5, as the guests in room 4 also complained without result. On the final morning, all the guests were told there was no breakfast available because the chef hadn’t turned up. What a total shambles of a pub, and no chance of refunds. We are now in the process of going to solicitor to make a refund claim against this couple of con owners.

Extremely unprofessional owners. Rooms 4 and 5 very noisy all night. bar closes at 10.00. Breakfast hit and miss.

Called in for a snack at lunchtime and was very impressed.

This pub doesn’t take bookings but as a group of 12, on a busy evening, they still managed to find a table for us within an hour and we were happy sitting in the bar. Food was good. Standard pub stuff but done very well plus a very popular outdoor pizza oven. The pizza took almost as long as the wait for our table but, unlike some other places, there was no problem bringing it inside so the kids could eat with the adults. I’d recommend.

Knew we weren't in for the greatest culinary experience when we walked in and there were more dogs in there than an episode of Crufts...

We enjoyed a tasty meal in the pub beer garden. Ideal if you're holidaying near Port Isaac (5 minute drive). Friendly staff. Easy parking.

The Cornish Arms are subscribed to the Brit Stops scheme we contacted them to check availability and arrived at 5pm for an overnight stay. The car park has an area to the bottom perfect for larger vehicles and we were directed there when we telephoned.

We stayed at the Cornish Arms this weekend to see the Fishermans Friends at Port Isaac. We were so glad we did! The owners were lovely and couldn't have done more to make us welcome. My parents had a room upstairs which was immaculately clean and apparently extremely comfortable and we were lucky enough to be able to spend the night in our camper in the car park. It was no hassle to pop in to have breakfast with my mum and dad the next morning and the Cornish brekkie was just what we needed. When we had arrived back from Port Isaac the previous evening, there were some men playing traditional music by the bar and the atmosphere was amazing! Great drink choices, great food and great people there to top it off. Would highly recommend!

Stayed here for 2 nights with out three dogs. Nothing was to much trouble for the staff. Breakfast was amazing especially the smoked salmon& scrambled egg. Will definitely go back again. Landlord & Landlady are fantastic.

After popping in for a drink on Sunday night we thought we would return for a meal, hence to say very disappointed.

Antica locanda del 1600 riadattata a pub e B&B.; Offre camere ampie e pulite, con ampia dotazione di facilities, accappatoio compreso. Ci siamo fermati anche per cena nel pub e ci siamo trovati bene, così come per la colazione compresa nel prezzo. Da apprezzare l'annesso parcheggio gratuito

Excellent food served in a pleasant dining area of the bar. It was dog friendly, lots of interest to look at in the bar

The food here is not good enough for a prison. Steaks described as rump were silverside cut off the roasting joint reserved for tomorrows Sunday lunch.

We stayed here whilst down checking out a campsite for the summer and had an enormous dog friendly room with everything supplied including fresh milk for cups of tea, dental, shaving packs and the usual shampoo and soap packs. It was all really well thought out.

Very nice country pub with rooms. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staff Was cery helpful and welcoming. We stayed for dinner. Lot of local ales and beers, fresh fish and daily specials.

We stayed in a cottage down the road from this pub. We had food here twice which was lovely! The owners were very accommodating, one evening they even helped us with planning our visit to the Eden project. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back.

This is our 2nd time at The Cornish Arms. As before Karen was a great host nothing to much trouble. On this occasion we had the pleasure of meeting her son and daughter and there family. The ambience is perfect and you get to meet the locals. Food is good.Rooms are beautiful, beds comfy and you get a great breakfast. Book direct as in the winter they have an offer 2nights B& B with a 2 course meal with a bottle of wine on your first night per couple all for 140 pounds, bargain. Thank you Karen for a lovely stay, we hope that Geoff is on the mend.

We had a late lunch here on Tuesday whilst on holiday in the area. Despite it being a midweek lunch, and 2.15pm, the pub was still relatively busy, with a good collection of locals, who were all very friendly and chatty. Nice cosy interior with wood-burning stove.

We visited here last week for lunch. We found friendly staff and great food at a good price Nothing was too much trouble for the girl who served us our lunch she was most attentive.

We went for lunch here today with our little boy. Our little boy loved his meat ball pasta. Superb fish and chips and great burger. Cheap good quality food. Very attentive young girl serving food couldn’t do enough for us. Liked so much have booked Sunday lunch. All in all great local pub, friendly owners and good food.

This is a real gem of a pub/motel/restaurant.

Three of us had the Christmas menu at the Cornish Arms. We placed our order in advance. Two of us are vegetarians and enjoyed a tasty nut roast.All in all we had a splendid evening with a great atmosphere and superb food and service.

Stayed a night - clean room, comfortable enough, lacked style. Cupboard sized bathroom. Tasteless food. Wouldn’t repeat experience

Well presented, good value basic pub food. Good gin list. Wine reasonably priced. Good atmosphere, owners very welcoming. Would recommend.

Had a great meal with friends at this restaurant in Penzance. The service and atmosphere were really good. The restaurant is undergoing a refurbishment and look forward to going back for another dinner.

Have visited this pub 4 times in the last year and have been very impressed with the Sharps beers and steak and ale pie. Staff, local customers and landlord always make us feel welcome and this quaint pub has become a favourite stop off point when travelling in and out of North Cornwall

Only here for 1 night, but the service was exceptional, the food was very good and the rooms had everything you could possibly want. To top it all there was a huge gin list, pity we were only here for 1 evening.

Just back from a long weekend at the Cornish Arms with my Wife, really enjoyed our time there, friendly & helpful staff with good food & beer. Although it is a b&b; it is still a proper locals pub and they made us feel really welcome with some real characters.

My wife and I stade here on the 13th of October unfortunately only the single night , we found pub to be very welcoming from the reception bar staff and breakfast staff. the food was of a very good standard as was the morning breakfast.

We ate at the Cornish Arms three times. Lovely staff and good, well priced food. A specials option would be a good addition - so would chunky chips As an option

We were staying about a mile away at Higher Hendra, and this was our nearest watering hole, so we got to know Geoff and his staff pretty well during our week's stay in Cornwall.

Picked this place for a night away from the norm and for its close proximity to Port Isaac so we could visit during the day. It's a lovely old building with lots of charm and character. The room was excellent. Very clean, really comfortable beds, nice powerful shower and very well equipped in terms of amenities. Breakfast was also very good. Had a fun evening in the bar.

We found this pub after a visit to Port Isaac, on our return home to Trewarmett, and were so impressed by the comfortable, friendly ambience and the welcome we received from both staff and the many locals who use the pub (always a good sign) that we decided to return and have a meal on our next visit to cornwall.

Nice food and atmosphere, staff friendly and helpful. Easy reach for those visitors staying in Port Isaac.

We have been in this pub about 5years ago and food was great. Then we could not find it again. We have found it today! It is under new managment but still Food was great . Waited for a bit but came cooked fresh and smelled&tasted; divine. Yum. Calling you all to visit this charming place. Not far from Port Issac and Tintagel.

We visited here for dinner with friends after booking table before hand. The food is ordered by table service while drinks can only be ordered at the bar. Free WiFi was available when we asked.

The food is very over priced £15 for small piece of pan fried fish with 4 new potatoes broccoli and carrots Fish was small but ok but the vegs were dry and the 4 small new potatoes were grey and inedible when i said to the gentleman who cleared the plates I could not eat the potatoes he said "no one else has complained" he then disappeared never to be seen again.
