The London Inn Restaurant in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Maybe we turned up at the wrong time on a bad day but…. Friendly and good service and a pint of Tribute is a pint of Tribute.. Very disappointed with the carvery on offer, can only suggest having a look at the counter and if you are happy, then purchase a ticket.

Went for the Carvery first last Sunday which was the first day it was fantastic and just what we wanted. Went for the OAP lunch on Thursday and yes lovely. When in Kilkhampton please visit you will not regret it

Nice welcome and a pint of Rattler is always positive! Mrs went for an IPA and all the barrels went at the same time which was a little unlucky as she had to wait for a bit but these things happen. Decides to just have snack so went for the medium hot dirty fries. Food was good and service was excellent! Had another couple of drinks and explored a bit. Out the back is a massive chilled space which we enjoyed. As we’re local we explore all the local pubs, some we don’t bother going back to but this isn’t one of those, will definitely back. Think will book in for Carvery next

£12 plus for ham (which was paper thin)egg, and chips not good value at all. Asked for some bread and butter but they had no bread!Only about 5/6 meals on the menu and portions are small. We had a sandwich when we got back to our holiday home as we were still hungry! It was like something that you would rustle up at home. Staff pleasant but full of apologies as we were the first customers since they had started serving food. In summation average food at best for the same prices as other establishments who provide better fare. Needs to improve greatly in my opinion.

Came here on Xmas Eve Eve for a quick pub grub! Can see straight away it’s a family pub :) super dog friendly and food was good old comfort food. We had the rump steak and the curry half and half (was spicy but I love spicy food) dog had a water bowl given to her and had lots of fusses from the children there. We would have stayed longer but dog was getting hot by the fire but we were happy with our choice of pubs :)

Well, where to start. We arrived on spec and despite the restaurant section being very busy the staff quickly found us a table with just a short wait. We placed our order for Fish and Chips, which when it arrived was enormous and beautifully presented with salad and peas, it was certainly one of the best if not THE best fish & chips we have ever been served in a pub. The bar has a good selection of beers and ciders served by very friendly staff, there is also a covered outdoor area perfect for families and children. Dogs are welcome and various events including live music and a pub quiz take place regularly. All in all we re unable to fault the venue, the staff or the food and will certainly be visiting again on our next stay in Kilkhampton in the spring of next year.

Well I can’t agree with the previous review. We are visiting family and booked here for a quick meal in the evening. Service was good. We got a ‘hello how are you’ when we arrived. Food was good. It is pub food but was served all together, hot and perfectly edible. No problems. It was certainly pub food level and that’s reflected in the price but we had no complaints. I thought the service was good - certainly not over fussy as previously described.

Even with a new chief the food is still really bad. Tasteless.And now they have a young boy helping out who is really annoying hovering around when you’re eating a drinking . We have given thus place so many chances but won’t be back again.

Warm welcome, did not have to wait long for our food ordered a Special of Sea Bass and mash which was very nicely cooked and tasty, good portion size. For dessert chocolate and strawberry sponge with a lovely jug of custard which was a real comfort food. We could not fault anything so returned again the following night and again had a really good meal. highly recommend.

Little gem with great food and service with a top class team. Didn’t book just called in and the young lady on the bar was so helpful and found us a table. The young man waiting on was a joy. We had excellent service and tasty food. Chicken fajitas came on a sizzling plate with 3 x wraps. Great portion and price. Also dog friendly which is fabulous.

Best breakfast for miles. The full English here takes some beating well presented cooked to perfection and plenty of it. The staff very pleasant and can’t do enough for you. Highly recommend.

Absolutely terrible. We chose 2 dishes from the "specials options" and both were awful. The slow roasted pork belly was fatty and looked like it was cooked weeks ago and just warmed up. No veg, just a lump of fat on a warm plie of mash covered in jelly. I gave it to the dog!!!

Great food. Had a lovely sandwich with proper chips! They had a good and varied menu and food was nice and hot!

Barstaff and servers were5☆, but the food, however not good, had the HOMEMADE spaghetti bolognaise ,soggy pasta, no sauce .just plain flavourless mince ,had better out of a tin

Not sure who wrote the other reviews, plus I very rarely write reviews myself, but my family’s advice is to save your money; you’d be better off cooking for yourself at home! The first sign that the experience wasn’t going to be great was the lack of customers when we arrived, when we’d struggled to get a reservation anywhere else. The food and drinks were FAR from great; the lasagne was dry and tasteless with very cheap meat, we were convinced the curry was a microwave meal and you needed strong teeth to rip the naan bread! We actually chose to go and pick a dessert up at Morrisons rather than waste more money ordering at the pub. We were back at our holiday rental within an hour feeling disappointed with our experience after looking forward to going out. Try to get your dinner reservations booked in advance to ensure you get a great meal.

We ate in this lovely pub two nights in a row. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the menu had a good choice. We enjoyed the food so much we went back the following night! The young lad who served us was fantastic and very confident. We wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

We booked in advance, a family of five plus our well behaved dog. Food was plentiful and tasty with the service to match. Great hospitality from the hosts and the venue was clean and welcoming. The menu is simple but caters for all. A great selection of alcoholic beverages behind the bar. We were invited to join in the pub quiz which was well organised and a relaxing way to spend our evening. Not sure how but we managed to win the quiz with a wildcard guess at the killer question. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Amazing little find! We stayed in a local cottage- unfortunately we found this beauty on our last night! So friendly, all the staff were great! The young servers were great, nothing was too much and they checked we had everything! Food portions were great and prices were good. Would go back, if in area! Highly recommend!

Popped in for dinner this evening. Fantastic setting great food and very polite staff. Food came out very quickly. Thank you to all the staff

Fantastic food and wide range of drinks and the staff were amazing. Do not miss out this pub on your trip as it has it all, great food, entertainment for all

Always friendly staff, Lorraine’s behind the bar and the young man always provide exceptional service! Came in for live music night on Saturday and had a fantastic time! Would highly recommend

This place is what everybody would think of as the perfect local. We booked a table for a dinner one Tuesday evening, via Facebook, for 2 adults and 2 children and asked if they were dog friendly. The reply all but begged us to bring...

Found this place while staying on holiday in Bude, looking for somewhere to have evening meal with family and our pet dog, booked table and staff were very friendly and welcoming, service and food was excellent, we were so impressed we went back there for...

Cozy village close to where we were staying on holiday . Was fully booked the first time we tried . Dog friendly which is lovely to see and staff really friendly . Food was good and not overpriced

Had food here as we were staying at a nearby lodge and wanted a Sunday roast. Did not disappoint. We all had a few pints, roast beef and a dessert. Food was great. Service was great. Atmosphere was great!

We went as a birthday celebration so we were prepared to pay for good food, excellent service and atmosphere, London Inn ticked all the boxes

Dog friendly pub so got our business!! Meal for 4 great portions great price would recommend!! Cost for this meal with x 2 pints x w wines x 1 lemonade x1 water £70

It’s now the second time we have stayed at The London Inn in Kilkhampton. Thank you Paul and Sue for making our stay so pleasant, you always make us feel at home. The staff are friendly, the entertainment was great, the bar filled with laughter...

The person behind the bar was friendly and you can take your dog there but the food was awful. Ordered a fish finger sandwich and I am not sure what they think fish looks like but it isn’t grey! The thinnest white bread and some...

We live locally in Bude but had never been, very glad we stopped and will definitely be returning. The decor is lovely, proper cosy pub with bunting, a fire and nicely decorated. The welcome we received was as if we had been many times before,...

We stayed in Kilkhampton for 2 nights and went there on both evenings, mainly because it was steps away from our accommodation, but also because the welcome and service was tip top. It was Lorraine's first night but she shone and looked like she'd been...

We ate at this establishment 3 times during our weeks stay in Shadymouth Bay. Twice for dinner and once for breakfast. The service was impeccable every time and the food freshly cooked and presented brilliantly. The beer was also very good, selling a variety of...

The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and attentive. We enjoyed a lovely Sunday roast which was a huge portion! The dog even got a treat. Highly recommend

Yummy food ! Me & hubby were very impressed and portions are huge we had the steak grill and the fish pie definately no room for pudding sadly! The atmosphere was freindly and staff were so helpful and polite. We popped in on our journey...

Lovely Sunday Carvery, choices of succulent meats, perfect spuds & tasty seasonal vegetables. Well recommended. Evening meals also a great speciality. Thank you

Excellent Sunday Roast as always thank you. The food was delivered to our table quickly and was so tasty.

A really nice family pub! Went here last week for dinner and Sunday lunch with my partner. Friendly staff and owners. Great food from chef Pete. Recommended.

We have just come back from a weekend at the London Inn. All I can say it was amazing. Sue and Paul are great hosts. Peter the Chef is brilliant, food was amazing. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in one...

What can I say, personally Cornwall makes me feel like the dogs are put first before people, which is great :) Drove past this pub on the way to our holiday park, looked good so was going to be one place we used, we were...

A group of us visited for dinner. Lots of items unavailable from the menu. Many of the beer pumps and ciders also not available including only one type of white wine available! We ordered a variety of meals, mostly Overpriced for what we received. A...

To be fair the beer was ok and the staff was friendly, it was just the food that was bad. I shouldn’t think there was much actual cooking involved for most of the dishes that came out of the kitchen. Still that’s what some people...

Two weeks ago today my husband and I had our wedding reception at The London Inn I can’t find words to explain how amazing this was. Paul, Sue, Becky, Ben and Henry Went above and beyond for us all. Exceptional party thanks to them x...

This pub looked really nice on the outside but a totally different story inside. We were a family of 6 adults and 1 child, it stated it was home cooked well what a joke that was.. my granddaughter had “homemade pizza” well that wasn’t true...

tried phoning all day to book a table no reply didn’t even go to voice mail to leave a message, when we arrived was rudely told we don’t have availability didn’t event ask if we wanted to eat outside or in lounge area not impressed.

Found the Pub was lovey but poor quality food. Visited as a family of 5 and spent over £50 to receive kids nuggets overcooked, slider burgers tasted like they were from a burger van, no veg with the kids meal and my partner had the...

We were supporting a gentleman with learning disabilities they went out of there way to welcome us. The food was good which made us go ther again.

Lovely village pub. Staying locally so we went for Sunday Lunch. We hadn't booked and were given a table straight away. Bar staff very friendly. Food was lovely, came out quickly and all cooked fresh. Quiet and relxed pub inside which we like. Parking is...

Wanted to stop for some lunch on our way back from Bude whilst on holiday , 3 adults & a 16 yr old . The pub itself was lovely inside and out and the bar staff were friendly so if your calling in just for...

Pub cannot cope with walk ins I came in and the pub was empty so I asked if we could have food Was told no as they were fully booked Completely empty I am baffled Looks like a lovely pub so a shame they’re fine...

Whilst staying at Penstowe Park, we visited this pub twice in the week. Very prompt service and excellent food. Good atmosphere. Recommended

What a lovely pub. Food was amazing, entertainment was fantastic and the staff go above and beyond. We were made to feel at home within minutes of stepping foot inside. Highly recommended and we'll be returning on our next trip to Cornwall. Thank you Sue...

Food is absolutely not worth visiting for. Burgers were thin, frozen type you normally see at a fairground, scampi was the same. Ploughman’s was disappointing too. No childrens menu which was a shame and also made it very expensive with a lot of food waste....

Great decor but poor service and food. No chicken burgers left, but only told when we went to order. Cod was soggy and greasy, lasagne disgusting and overloaded with oregano and salt. Salad was appalling and consisted of three leaves and a few slices of...

We were visiting friends in Bude and we came here for some drinks, and I have to say, I felt very welcome, we all did in fact. The staff were chatty and the vibe was nice, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our evening here.

We spent a lot of time in the London Inn while staying in one of the attached cottages for our summer break. The food menu consists of traditional pub grub and we enjoyed trying various meals during our stay. Dog treats are provided at the...

What a lovely place to eat and spend some time chilling - we met friends there, took our 7 nth old puppy and received the warmest of welcomes. All of the staff are so friendly and the food is top notch. We liked it so...

Our first visit to the London Inn for a sunday pork roast and everything was perfect, lovely food, great service and a fantastic warm welcome!

Found this pub whilst out touring Cornwall countryside. It was quite a find food was delicious and staff friendly and welcoming. Had a very enjoyable meal.

We used this pub a couple of times during our holiday in Cornwall,it has a homeless atmosphere and serves nice meals ,we would definitely use this pub again when next in the area.

Normally, if I can’t write a good review then I don’t bother. But in all honesty this has to be the worst meal we’ve eaten out. Specifically went there because I fancied pie and mash with vegetables. My husband and I ordered our meals and...

We found this on a drive out and very glad we did. Very friendly staff, lovely food and local beer, for me, perfect. The place is well maintained and you can clearly see that it’s very popular with the locals, being welcoming to everyone. If...

I really like this place food was fantastic especially the steak and ale pie the service and friendliness as soon as you walked in the door the dartboard was an added bonus and loved the korev beer is great comparing it to Moretti too

Beer is ok but the food is a bit Wetherspoon’s. If that’s your benchmark then this is the place for you. Not the sort of place to celebrate your mother’s birthday if you get my drift.

nice dinner for my elderly father and myself. Nice food, helpful staff. We both ate from the main menu and food was good qulaity.

Amazing food, friendly staff, what more could you ask for! Food was fresh and delicious, great value for money. Really recommend anyone coming through on the A39 and in need of stop, this is where to go.

I think the meal I had in the London inn today was probably the worst I’ve ever had. It was truly shocking. The owners don’t seem to have any experience of hospitality. Once the holiday makers have gone I should think their business will fold.

Nice and cozy traditional pub, family run Great hands on owners hosting brilliant live music and a large beer garden and play area. Family run ✅ Great value ✅ Live music ✅ Village pub ✅ Play park ✅ Beer garden ✅ Family friendly ✅ Restaurant...

While staying in Appletree Cottage in the village we visited this pub once for a drink and then 3 evenings for dinner. The landlord and landlady are very welcoming and all the staff were very friendly. All the food we had was delicious. We had...

This place is what people want good food good beer. My food wasn’t great as the steak pie although filled with lots of steak was very dry, the mashed potato was like it had been heated up and the gravy was just watery bisto gravy....

Very nice welcome and good food good price. What more could you want. Definitely would call again on next holiday.

Three of us (my wife, myself and Bailey the Labrador) had a short stay in one of the lovely holiday cottages adjacent to the London Inn and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Bumblebee cottage was warm and comfortable with cool decor and a brilliant shower !! and...

We were staying locally so decided to call in to have an meal. My wife had to choose three meals off the menu before she found one that they had some left. She eventually ordered ham egg and chips which they had some left and...

We were in Cornwall for a three day break away and on the first night we decided to eat out. The two people behind the bar were very welcoming. We ordered food and this was a lovely meal. The steak pie was one of the...

A nice welcome, followed by well priced food. The nice large 'fully filled' steak pie was great, and the girls veggie food was great too. Many thanks.

While staying in the village on holiday, we popped in for an evening meal, we could not have found a friendlier place and the food was great tasting, good value too. The Steak and ale pie was a great hit. We went back for the...

Fantastic all round service Food was quick and hot and delicious Friendly staff Would thoroughly recommend

Lovely family and dog friendly pub, serve food, very welcoming would definitely recommend to anyone holidaying in the area. Paul & Sue who are the Landlord/Landlady really make you feel welcome, well worth a visit. We are hoping to return and stay at 1 of...

Was in Kilkhampton for the weekend, thought we’d try the London Inn. What a great decision we made. Both us humans and the dog received a fantastic welcome from Paul & Sue (Landlord & lady) all the staff and even the other customers. Wide selection...

Came here this evening for a family meal, we all had different meals and each one was amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Will definitely be returning soon! Thanks so much x

We visited this pub for food whilst on holiday in the area, on a Saturday night as a family booking. Unfortunately it was very mediocre- service was adequate but fairly disinterested. The dining area was not busy, only 2 other tables (maybe that was a...

We were un-able to host our Lunch Club in our village hall so opted to take our 16 guests to the London Inn. They did a brilliant job of feeding us all, the presentation was great, food was delicious and the service was lovely. They...

An amazing pub with a real community spirit. Great food and such a warm welcome. The owners and family have created something very special and should be very proud. Families are welcomed only one problem, you won’t want to leave 😃

We were staying local and consulted Tripadvisor on best places to eat locally. We went on reviews and viewed pictures on Tripadvisor. 😔 errrrrr…. The staff were amazing. Friendly, polite and accommodating… the food let all this down. Wish we had taken pictures but the...

Looking for somewhere to get something to eat rather late at lunchtime we came across this little pub that welcomed dogs as well as people! We chose to have meals from the Small plates menu and were amazed at the food when it came as...

We stayed around the corner to the London Inn and my grandparents had been twice in 3 weeks. The best food I have had in ages and would highly recommend the steak and ale pie with creamy mash! The staff were so welcoming. Even though...

Such a cute little pub with amazing service and friendly staff and owners. A lovely meal which was quick service. We were out the way in what looked like the dining room but we’re not forgotten about! Absolutely dog friendly (thought we wouldn’t leave with...

Me and my partner stayed in the cosy little butterfly cottage, the space was immaculately clean, lots of thoughtful touches including blankets, mood lighting and was a really well thought out space. The pub atmosphere was brilliant as we were lucky enough to catch a...

A lovely evening meal here, the pub is very nice, the food was lovely, homemade lasagne, and grilled cod, we didn't have to wait very long for the meal and the waitress was very pleasant. we will return again if we visit this part of...

We chanced upon the London Inn as it was local to where we were staying. It was so good, we immediately booked again to make it our final dinner before returning home. The menu is classic pub food, but clearly made in-house with quality fresh...

What an amazing restaurant, food is out of this world, perfect owners and service was first class highly recommended the London inn. Can’t wait to come back again Kim from Southampton

Very friendly atmosphere and we were warmly welcomed. We had our two four month old German shepherds with us and these were made very welcome. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. Certainly will be booking again when next down in December.

We had a delicious lunch and were made very welcome despite arriving with three dogs. It was lovely that they had waterbowls and towels for the dogs and even served doggie ice cream. The bar staff and lamnd lord were extremly friendly and helpful. It...

Smiley helpful staff made you feel welcome, it was a good food at reasonable prices. Pies were beautiful and highly recommended.

We visited here whilst staying at yurt accommodation just down the road. The food, recommend the steak and ale pie, ambiance and draft Rattler were all fantastic.

Every time we come here - even though its often 6 months or a year on - the food is still perfect, the customer service is still everything you might hope it would be. No matter what meals our party has the outcome is still...

Lovely pub with great food the only disappointment was the reduced lunch menu, we visited in May and ate here several times and was really looking forward to doing the same, because of the menu we went in for Sunday lunch twice and it was...

This very nice pub became OUR local for 2 weeks was staying just around the corner lovely family have taken this over staff equally as lovely .. we was made to feel very welcome by all very good food give the steak & ale pie...

The staff were really friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately the table we had was right by the door and I was sticking out into the walkway. We asked for another table but they said they were fully booked. The food came promptly and was average pub...

Clean gastro pub with traditional bar set up. Very few people in at lunchtime. Pasty and chips went down well. Prices reasonable. This pub has live Friday night music. Clearly a popular event as it was fully booked on the Friday we visited. Parking limited...

Very friendly and welcoming pub in the village. Menu is extremely good value for money. We went with our 3 year old daughter and felt it was so good, we went back again in the same week. Lovely village pub feel. Highly recommended to anyone...
