The Rising sun in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We had been 3 ti.mes before the experience we had last week. We had always been in the resteraunt but this time 5 of us was put on a tiny table in the corner of the bar..lt wasn't comfortable leaving at all.The staff were friendly but we asked for water 3 times and never got it We had been raving about the pub to our family but this time we were disappointed. We were going to book 20th Oct for an occasion but have de cided to go somewhere else just in case. We will come again but on our own. Such a shame as we loved it before.

We were recommended this place to eat . Personally if I was driving by I would not stop as the place does not look inviting compared to other country pubs . However the decor inside is traditional, the welcome was warm , and it was full of returning locals creating a natural atmosphere. ( dog friendly in the bar ) The food was delicious, locally sourced fresh and well presented and service was delivered with a smile , reasonably attentive and good. I would go back again . We recommend this place .

Sunday lunch for 8 of us as a birthday celebration was just excellent. From the welcome and service of Nick and his colleagues to the quality of the starters, mains and puds, all was outstanding. We have been many times before and it has always been a joy. Look out for the scotch egg and the fish courses, YUM!

Went for Sunday lunch at The Rising Sun Inn. The food was exceptional, the staff were friendly and accommodating. What a fabulous find, we will be returning many times; can’t wait to sample the rest of the menu! Absolutely the best meal out in a long time.

Due to excellent experiences at this restaurant previously, yesterday evening we took our family to celebrate our daughter’s 18th birthday. The food was absolutely delicious. Across three courses it was pure heaven! Our party was made up of those who regularly eat at higher end restaurants as well as farmers who love a good feed, and everyone was happy! The staff who looked after us were fantastic as always, attentive, conscientious and personable. Many thanks as always to the team

Walked to this pup as sadly the place we were staying at had no phone signal or Wi-fi. The restaurant was fully booked on a Saturday. We should have called. Not sure how lol. We put our name on the waiting list but as they only employ one chef that was 1 hour 20 mins minimum. Had a pint and left after 30 mins. Moral of the story call before you turn up if you want food. Didn’t feel like returning after this one visit.

Not one to complain and have visited with family before. All five of us felt that for what we paid didn’t equal to the amount of food we were given.We walked in starving and walked out after our food starving.I think when we all meet...

Great little place - incredibly friendly and welcoming- very well made and excellent tasting food - well worth a visit

Brought her by friends for a really great evening meal.A lovely old farm house turned into a delightful pub with restaurant deep in the Cornish countryside on the edge of Bodmin moor.We ate mainly from the fish offerings which were beautifully fresh and presented with delicious saucing.There is a small but good wine list at reasonable prices,I am also told there are excellent local beers.The scallops were wonderful as was the hake main course. Indulgent puds were also on offer. This place is well worth finding and is not over priced for the quality it offers

The Rising Sun could not have provided a more welcoming atmosphere after our morning rally around the lanes of mid-Cornwall. Service was excellent, the range of beers and ales superb and the lunches we all enjoyed were absolutely perfect, from traditional roasts to vegan meals, plus the desserts were exceptional. This has my top rating for any eatery in Cornwall and provides good value for money. Do not miss it!!

We enjoyed a fabulous meal with our local friends here this week. The food was simply the best we had during our stay in Cornwall. Feel slightly heart broken that we have returned home and that the Rising Sun isn’t our local. We will come back soon!

We can across this lovely little pub after visiting the Davidstow war museum. We popped in to see if was dog friendly and open for food, luckily for us it was a yes to both. We was given a really warm welcome and the dog was given fresh water and a couple of treats so he was over the moon. We looked over the menu and specials board after ordering our drinks which we was able to put on a tab. The menu and specials board had some lovely dishes on so we was stuck as to what to have. After we had made our mind up we went back up to the bar to order. To start we had the grilled sardines and a seafood chowder. The sardines were amazing and the chowder really tasty and full of fish and came with a slice of fresh homemade bread. For our mains we settled for the mussels in a garlic and cream sauce with frites and the liver with bacon, mash and veg. The liver was slightly over cooked to our liking but both dishes was tasty and quite large portions. For desserts we ordered the profiteroles with cherry ice cream without the warm chocolate sauce and a panna cotta with wine soaked blueberries. The panna cotta was really well set and really enjoyable, the profiteroles had the cherry ice cream inside and again was really tasty. The cost for the two starters, mains and desserts with drinks came to less than £61 which for the quality was great value for money. Overall this place is a great dog friendly pub that serves good quality food with superb friendly owners what's not to like. We will return.

We were attending a wedding at a near by venue and we were a big party. The manageress was fantastic! We were managed brilliantly, their service and communication considering the party size (30 odd) was fab! Now the food ... rarely do you have such a large party who are all impressed with their food. This place achieved that! We all had mains and sweets, all very impressive. Both appearance, quality and taste. Also impressive selection of beers, ales etc Friendly chatty locals too.

Eight of us enjoyed a splendid lunch here. All ordered off the specials lunch menu and the normal menu. All dishes from starters to desserts of excellent quality, good value and promptly served. Great to have such quality in our local neighborhood. Well worth finding as ‘ off the beaten track’, but most definitely worth the effort. The St.Nonna local beer - a cracker.

We nearly passed the above public house, but decided to go in for a drink. Whilst ordering our drinks we decided to stop for dinner. Very friendly chap behind the bar, took our booking with no problem at all. Menu had lots of choice, including quite a lot of fish and local meat. We had starters and main courses. it was excellent.

I stayed here last year in the campsite and had fab food at the pub. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. I came again to stay on my own. I felt very welcome and at ease. The food, pork chop, was amazing and great beer. As someone else has said, don’t judge from outer appearances

Ett otroligt varmt och glatt välkomnande! Sedan åt vi olika rätter och bedömde att det var det godaste vi ätit på år och da'r!

Came here for lunch today,all four meals were excellent.had 3 courses which we don't normally manage as the food was so good. Well priced. Only downside no Doom Bar!!Will be back- best meal in a long time.

This evening my family and I went to The Rising Sun Inn in celebration of my partners Birthday. As a vegan I am always apprehensive about options that restaurants have. When we arrived Vicky reassured me that the chef would not disappoint and that he would make something up. I was presented with an asparagus dish to start accompanied with a delicious sauce. Main and dessert photos to be uploaded.

Visiting the Rising Sun Inn twice over our weekend in Cornwall made our break. Food excellent plenty of choice and staff welcoming and friendly. Wish we lived closer. Hope to return soon.

We discovered this amazing pub while house hunting in the vicinity and arrived an hour before opening. We had a look around on TripAdvisor in case there were other pubs open in the area and nothing seemed as good as the Rising Sun so we chose to wait. We were then spotted by the landlord who came out to let us know he’d opened early having seen us waiting!

We booked a table for the family at 6pm on a Friday evening, we mentioned the children when booking and this did not seem to be a problem. When we arrived everything was fine, we were welcomed warmly and the staff were helpful. We were about 20 minutes late to sit at our table as we were in the bar having a drink. We left the restaurant at 8:20, after two courses.

Four of us visited for an evening meal. Excelent food and the Cornish cider was very good. We had hoped to revisit the next evening but they were not open on Sunday evenings.

Second visit here and another lovely lunch

So pleased we got to dine at the Rising Sun this evening which was recommended by our host at Trevadlock Manor. The owners were so friendly and food was just amazing. Two of us had the duck meal which was beautifully cooked and not too much on the plate. Hubby enjoyed his "posh bangers and mash" very much and our foster young man had a yummy beef burger which he gobbled up in no time! Dessert was simply divine and tonight's special was a favourite - pavlova with passion fruit and raspberry! What's not to like about something so profoundly delicious. All in all, a wonderful experience for food lovers! If you're holidaying in the area, do pop in to this very friendly pub and experience gourmet food at a reasonable price. You won't regret it!

Yet again the food experience was very good. Excellent choice of dishes and specials board. Worth a visit

It is refreshing to visit somewhere where everyone was so passionate about the place. We were welcomed from the moment we walked in. Such friendly people. The food was awesome, it’s not often I eat 3 courses but it was just so great!

The food was fantastic, and really surprised us how good it was compared to the pricing. They could charge a lot more for that quality. The specials were gorgeous. Thanks for having us, wish we had more energy to stick around longer.

Me and my partner popped in for lunch and we loved every minute we were there. It's an atmospheric pub, amazing views and the steaks were delicious. We were made to feel very welcome and I honestly can't wait to go back. Thank you guys.

After walking on Bodmin Moor decided to have something to eat (and to dry off!)

we booked a table for 6 of us had a welcoming greeting, the resteruant was busy but we were served quite quickly the food was stunning everyone was very happy with our choices

We visited this pub/restaurant on Friday and words just don’t do the food justice! It was absolutely amazing. We all had different meal choices and they were all equally delicious. The service, presentation and taste was top class. The owners Andy and Vicky are lovely hosts and the staff cannot be faulted. Perfect.

Despite my initial concern, as it was in the middle of no where and looked a little run down, I’m so glad we went in and experienced the Rising Sun Inn. Absolutely delicious food, the staff were great fun and atmosphere was really pleasant.

Whilst we enjoyed the food my friend had an issue with his ale. He did complain to no avail and when he continued to moan at me, we received uncomfortable stares and glares. Personally, it would have been less hassle and more customer friendly just to have changed it for him especially considering we were paying for food and desserts.

So good !the staff are friendly great ales, food was superb I had the box eater steak with peppercorn sauce best steak I have had in years mate had mussels which he raves about fresh bread was amazing

There is a good choice of well kept beer. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Food choices were imaginative, tasty, and well presented. A good menu and Good specials board offered a wide choice. We'll be back.

We visited for lunch as we had just arrived in the village for a cottage break . The welcome was lovely and attentive but without being fussy . The menu offered a good selection and the food was well made. We will certainly be back . Please don’t be put off by the outside as it looks a little worn . Once inside you will find delightful roaring fires , great hosts and tasty food . Even the locals was chatty and friendly .

Arriving here on a cold wet November evening was a very underwhelming experience as from the outside this place completely hides what's waiting for you inside. The bar was a cosy enough place for a typical country pub but the restaurant was a real surprise. It was a really a nice place to be and you could look straight into the kitchen and see what everyone was doing. They had some interesting choices on the menu at very reasonable and typical prices, and the food was excellent we commented on how much we enjoyed everything we had ordered. Service was excellent.

we went on sunday for roast, the pub was cosy and warm on a mizzly day, we both had roast beef but at £14 a head i was shocked!! definitely could have done with more on the plate for that money.

I came here with a group friends for dinner one dark, blustery evening. It was my first visit. The bar was very busy - mainly locals enjoying a drink. There's a quieter restaurant area separate from the bar for a more formal meal. The menu comprised a good range meat and fish, and a few vegetarian options, all at very reasonable prices, and there was a decent wine list to match. Service was friendly and efficient. The quality of the food was exceptionally good - I had Cornish scallops to start, and a rare steak for the main course. The combination of a proper locals' pub with a high standard of cuisine serves this remote location well. I look forward to a repeat visit.

I’ve been in this cosy pub in the day for coffee while out walking with the dog. Dog friendly. They have local ales on offer,also a good choice of other wines & refreshments. Keep meaning to go back for an evening and the menu looks so good. WOW I’m so glad I made the effort. Just as cosy in the evening, lovely happy bar staff. Two open fires. The Ales are a fantastic clean and cold enough to be refreshing pint.Tried a few. Each course was excellently put together. Had the box eater steak , delicious. Mackerel pate with horseradish butter. Yummy .. could tuck into more while writing this review. The chef should be proud of the exceptional food that is delivered. Thankyou. Chocolate Pudding was mighty fine, need to go back to try some of the others on offer. Reasonably priced for quality . Will definitely be going back.

We have just eaten at the rising sun and the food was fantastic highly recommend a very cosy pub with top class food will definitely be returning also the staff were so friendly and polite

Lovely pub with modern restaurant area, food came quickly, was presented well and tasted delicious! Would recommend the Field Mushrooms on toast and Burger, my friends enjoyed their prawns, scallops, steaks and sausage and mash, can’t wait to go back!

Fantastic food, fantastic service, what a find. In the middle of nowhere this pub is well worth a visit. The food was fresh, plentiful and cooked to perfection. Ok all four of us had the roast beef so we didn’t really explore the menu but from the looks of the faces on people not in our party I’m pretty sure that all the food was of a great standard. Fantastic.

This pub is like something out of a period film, but with good food and great staff. The beers were lovely and the food was impressive. It was lovely to experience a proper Cornish pub that dates back hundreds of years.

Stopped here as a mid way point on our cycle route. Warm welcome as you step into the bar area, friendly warm atmosphere with a good mix of areas to cosy into. Menu was outstanding, our lunch was simply superb. The kitchen must have a brilliant chef, the presentation was spot on, thank you.

Found this pub by chance today and after a drive down a VERY narrow lane were rewarded with a wonderful experience. If you don’t want to go down the lane adjust your sat nav options.

We were visiting the area and was recommended the Rising Sun and wasn't disappointed!

As we live a hours run by camper van from this secret gem which offers everything you can wish for, it is the ideal place to base your walking holiday,with strong local connections to the land with local produce and real ales,

Arrived for Sunday lunch on recommendation, food atmosphere fantastic also very friendly staff Must try sticky toffee pudding and chocolate pudding with raspberry coulee, to die for Most certainly will be returning in the future

Amazing little gem stumbled across this place . Amazing atmosphere friendly staff . An the food is out off this world . Just wish we lived nearer as on holiday an found on the last night , wish we found sooner . If in the area again will definitely be back .

Never judge a book by its cover , looks are deceiving ... From the outside looks like a smugglers inn and not appealing at all . But once in side the welcome we received was amazing , the bar man had great customer service skills , so helpful and polite .

Great atmosphere, attentive very pleasant staff with a great selection of quality beers along with an excellent menu. Scallops, goats cheese, beef and salmon all presented well cooked to perfection and the taste, fantastic. A warning though we had one sticky toffee sweet to share, bad idea it was so good we ended up fighting over it, order two!

Firstly I need to comment on the manager. What an absolute legend. He has a natural talent for this industry and should be showcasing his skills in a bigger, better place. He is a brilliant ‘front of house’ man.

Although the manager of this establishment was friendly and welcoming, our waitress although polite was surly and really looked as though she wished she were elsewhere. Both starters were delicious but the mains were overpriced and sadly mediocre at best. Disappointed as this establishment came highly recommended.

What a great place for a meal. A lovely country pub and restaurant.The food and service were excellent. My Wife has some food intolerance problems but nothing was too much trouble. We went with friends and every dish was brilliant. The bar also serves some great local ales. Win, win.

My husband and I visited with our friends we were pleasantly surprised as set in quite place .Our friend is a vegan and the chef made her something which was a total surprise which is a rarity she was blown away. We all choose something different Liver and Bacon, Duck and a Steak Beef Burger .All food locally sourced.,cook well presented very well and obviously eaten with delight.

Greeted by friendly bar staff and treated very well in the main restaurant. Great food in a cosey little restaurant. Couldn’t ask for better

Came here with my husband and our friend who eats gluten-free and we had a superb meal. Our only disappointment was that the seafood fondue starter had sold out, however our alternative starters were lovely. I had a seafood chowder that was packed with fresh fish. The main courses were delicious as well, we couldn’t manage a dessert as we were pleasantly full. Although the pub was very busy the service was great with just the right amount of time waiting. Being local we will definitely be back.

I rarely make comment, but this place is the best , all boxes ticked top draw food staff and hard to find

We visited as part of a family celebration for a birthday. From the outset the welcome and service was friendly, helpful and professional. The food was just superb clean plates all round - seafood, pates, steaks and duck. All delicious, beautifully cooked and really well presented. A great wine list too. The real pearl was the personal welcome, from the chef, that our 3 vegans received, having called ahead to let them know of food intolerances and allergies. He explained that he was cooking a bespoke meal for them rather than the usual run of the mill veggie fare. When it arrived it looked even more amazing than the other dishes from the menu. Bright colours and really interesting flavours - every plate was cleared. They were all equally impressed with the vegan desserts too. The other highlight was the attentiveness of the waiting staff. They couldn’t have been more attentive while not over bearing or ‘in your face’. Thank you all for a very lovely evening - it will live long in our memories and we’ll definitely be back!!

We were staying close by to the pub and decided to go for a drink on our first night and the staff were friendly and the food smelt lovely so we decided to book a table for the following evening and we were not disappointed. We ended up going again later in the week as we enjoyed it so much. Recommend that you book a table as it does get busy.

Visited for a family members birthday. I'm sure on previous visits (over a year ago) I was fairly limited with what I could have off of the menu. Having food allergies can make it a bit of a nightmare eating out. But I was pleasantly surprised when they said it was all cooked fresh so most dishes could be adapted to suit my needs. I had scallops to start and the monkfish special as a main. Which they happily adapted so there were no gluten or dairy containing ingredients. Made a welcome change for the venue to change the dish rather than me settling for something I can cook myself at home. An excellent place for those with more particular dietry needs. I will be sure to request we visit again! Thank you for being so accommodating and not judgemental.

Our first trip to Cornwall as a family, and we decided to have an evening meal here. The service, food and atmosphere was brilliant. There was no rush to eat and leave, and everything was cooked from fresh and tasted awesome. The waitress who served us was fantastic and treated our daughters like people. It's a shame we don't live closer.

I'll be honest, I didn't actually find it - a friend took me there. Out of the way it certainly is, but do worth the visit. Fantastic atmosphere and truly superb food. The crab salad with mango and avocado is particularly tasty and worth the visit alone.

A nice traditional pub that has clearly extended in order to offer more food service, we arrived on a Sunday evening and it was pretty quiet in the restaurant, they only had one waitress who was rushed off her feet and very apologetic as there should have been more waiting staff but for what ever reason there was not.

Great food. Good range even for vegetarians. The steak was the best I've had in a long while. Staff were very attentive but not "in your face". This pub we have put on our list for regular visits as we live about 2 miles away.

We are on holiday in Cornwall and the restaurant was suggested to us by our hosts. On arrival we were welcomed by a very enthusiastic and jovial barman who was extremely helpful. We then moved on to the restaurant where we find a wide ranging menu and wine list. On delivery of our choices we found the neck of lamb and pork to be both exquisite and full of taste. The service within the restaurant was attentive and friendly. A place we will go back and I suggest you all do the same.

We came as a family group of nine: a couple of septuagenarians, two in their sixties, a couple of thirty or forty somethings, a pair of early teenage girls, and a two year old. Orders for food and drink were understandably varied and inconsistent but the cheerful staff bore with us and clearly nothing was too much trouble. From the warm welcome on arrival to our eventual departure we were made to feel entirely comfortable and at ease.

We have visited this restaurant previously but if anything it was better than before. The menu had changed but I would defy anyone to not be able to find something that they would like on the menu. Plenty of fish dishes, plenty of meat dishes, small meals, large meals. Our choice was foe a hake dish with fresh veg, dressed crab, baked cod, fish chowder and a crab salad washed down with cider and wine. The meals were all served promptly and everything tasted fresh and it was all piping hot, Us ladies can always push down a sweet so we had a panacotta and a sticky toffee pudding which was served with a Pedro Ximenez ( a fig and date sherry). We sat and talked with our friends in a friendly and welcoming atmospheric pub restaurant. We certainly will be visiting again and we won't be leaving it so long next time. A thoroughly ernjoyable meal.

We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Risng Sun, whilst on holiday. We ate in the bar as our dog was allowed to be in there with us. The atmosphere and service was very pleasant. My partner had the fresh cod with parsley sauce and creamy mash, and he loved it ! Scallop starter was delicious and I had a gorgeous salad as a main. My only disappointment was the sticky toffee pudding, which, I thought had been left in the microwave too long as it was rather hard. Other than that it was a perfect evening in a very friendly place.

You are always guaranteed of a warm welcome at the Rising Sun pub. On this occasion we popped in for Sunday lunch which was delivered promptly and delicious! Gluten free an vegetarians can be catered for ( as in our case on this visit). Good value for money.

Really nice place with plenty of space in the restaurent.Staff all very nice and helpful.Would definately return

Hubby and I went for a meal here and was'nt dissapointed the menu has been changed a little but that was fine, the Duck breast was delicious and also the chocolate pudding is to die for

Came here width family for a drink and sit outside. Been here a few times and it improves each time. The seating area at the front is so much better, benches and brollies. Very tranquil.

Myself and my wife eat here twice recently. The food is top quality, service is super and the price is reasonable. When we are in Cornwall again its on the list to visit again. One negative being the iffy wifi connection.

Went to Jamaica Inn just to see if improved, beer pricey, food outrageously priced, saw that the Rising sun not too far away, lovely setting, beer reasonable and food excellent, had crab salad and the steak, very friendly place

Don't be fooled by appearances (assuming you can find the Rising Sun in the first place - you'll need SatNav!). This is a gem.

A wonderful meal at the Rising Sun. The food was excellent and the staff friendly. You can take a dog if you don't mind eating in the bar.

Went with 3 other couples after a gap of several months, the food was always good, but I have to say we felt it was better than ever. Good attentive staff with an imaginative menu coupled with good portion sizes. Will be back soon.

Come hear for some dinner with the misses and the dogs made very welcome. The dogs are allowed in the bar area. Had the box steak which was great well worth ordering.

This pub must have one of the best burgers in the area. Their food can be highly recommended. Great atmosphere.

This is a very special pub. It's location, food, service and selection of drinks are all excellent.The chef is also the proprietor and what a great job he does. if you like steaks then the ' BOX EATER ' is the one for you, preceded by the seafood chowder.

Took the in laws here for dinner- they are VERY picky- and it went down a treat. We had the fish, the lamb and the pork, sadly the venison was sold out. It was excellent. The staff are also fabulous, from the super barman as you walk in to the waiting staff. Reasonably priced too.

We enjoy the atmosphere of this pub and have done so for years. We did find though that, alhough the food is good, it is over rated and the prices have become too high. Pity.

Popped in for lunch en route to St Mawes. Very friendly service and 3 good meals: take, guinea fowl and an improvised vegetarian meal. Good beer from a local brewery. Would visit again. Pretty local village.

From the outside, this appears to be just an ordinary country pub. Walk inside to the bar and you immediately get a warm welcome from the friendly staff. We were shown through to a lovely restaurant and were served a beautiful meal ( duck for my wife and guinea fowl for me). All beautifully presented by the friendly staff. Highly recommended and we will certainly revisit next time we are in the area. Thank you .

Great service from the start, really warm welcome, lovely range of choice on the menu, with some mouthwatering specials, so much to choose from. Exquisite food, proper gastro pub/ high end restaurant food, attentive table service. So pleased to see the same owners are there and that the standards are still as high as previous visits. Thank you, we will be back.

Our second visit to this pub while visiting Cornwall. Excellent food, friendly staff and excellent service. A Must for anyone visiting the area. Best to book as popular!

Really lovely place. Great staff, very friendly and welcoming. Felt really looked after. Food is beautiful, got to be the best steak I've ever had.

We've eaten here a few times now and it's very good; beef, pork and seafood all cooked perfectly and vegetables are just right (maybe a little underdone for some). The desserts are beautiful-pavlova with strawberries and chocolate fondant with raspberries-there is care with the cooking and presentation.

Every time I go to the Rising Sun I'm blown away by the welcome ... & the food. There is always an enthusiastic welcome, which can't be a bad start! The food is excellent. We travel a fair distance for their crab sandwiches alone. I would rate them as the best I've ever had ... I know, a bold statement! But I challenge you to try for yourself (& see if I'm wrong! ).

Visited a couple of weeks ago for a Saturday lunch. First of all, plenty of parking. Lovely warm welcome as well. Chose a starter from the lunchtime menu, of scallops with crispy Parma ham and a main course from the specials board , a free range breast of chicken , served with a delectable sauce flavoured with Tarragon, puy lentils and a delicious selection of fresh vegetables, including small slices of fennel which really complimented the whole dish. This was one of the best plates of food I have ever tasted, so many layers of flavours it was perfection. My partner had a steak and ale pie - - a proper pie, delectable pastry top and bottom, crammed full of top quality meat. Believe me when I say, this chef knows his job. Desserts of a very good Pannacotta with poached rhubarb and just the right amount of wobble , homemade sticky toffee pudding and really good coffee. Great range of wines and real ales. Have booked again for Mothering Sunday. If, like me, you are someone who appreciates quality food, expertly prepared, cooked and presented in an atmosphere where you can relax, then go here. This place is a real find - - you will probably need to book.

We stopped to have lunch in this excellent country pub. We received a very warm welcome from the owners which was helped by the two log fires in the bar. Really lovely atmosphere in this unspoiled, traditional pub. We enjoyed a delicious home cooked looked which was washed down by a couple of pints of ale from the local brewery in the village. Will certainly be visiting again.

We've been coming to this part of North Cornwall for almost 26 years but had never been to Altarnun. We decided to take a chance on this inn because the reviews were good.

When ever we stay in Trewen we make sure we book in advance to visit The Rising Sun as the food is excellent. The pub is a fab place to visit with friendly staff and locals. Wish this was our local!!! Look forward to our next visit.

Visited for my fourth time and as good as ever. Always like to visit when I’m in the area and it never disappoints. Good food and drinks along with a nice family atmosphere and friendly staff.

My husband and I sought this pub out en route after a few days away. It was difficult to find because you had to go some way of of the village of Altarnum to find it - but ask a local! It is very easy to park as it truly is in the middle of the countryside. It has no frills and is a basic honest pub. But the blackboard (on this cold and miserable winter day) has some additional options to the menu and we had a very cheery barman!

Very good food, good atmosphere, great traditional pub. We did not like though a dog being allowed to lay on the bench (covered of material) next to the owner. The publicans should not have accepted this.
