Fresh fish, homemade chips, friendly staff. Can’t complain!

We had a lovely Sunday roast here. It is dog friendly and had gluten free options for me.

Had a carvery paid for a regular but the kids carvery was the bigger for kids served on the same size plate. It was smothered in garlic and not cooked thoroughly enough. Floor greased more than an ice rink. 🤮 I hope this place improves drastically.

After hearing this is now the sister pub of the tavern Inn in Newquay we decided too visit, the food was superb, equally as good as the tavern inn in Newquay which is one of our regular haunts, will deffo be returning too try the Sunday carvery🤤 my partner couldn't believe the size of his fish goujon ciabatta 🫣 I think it's safe too say we will be alternating between here and the tavern inn 😊

We had an amazing stay at the Shepherds Hut at Travellers Rest in Cornwall. Picture perfect interiors, clean, accessible, yet feeling like you’re on your own and could not see anyone else but the cows and the sea. We loved switching off, hiking and surfing all just 5 minutes away. Couldn’t recommend highly enough

Fantastic vegetable curry and great service

Stopped nearby, went in for Sunday lunch and drinks, so can't comment on staying there. Popular pub.

Stopped off with a couple of friends . Lovely pub 👍

We promised our friend visiting from Finland a traditional Sunday lunch, and the Traveller's Rest's carvery did not disappoint! The food was great, and the staff were lovely. The chap serving even took a second to bring a bowl of chunks of beef for our dog which was unexpected and lovely. Nb. I've not rated the rooms above as we only ate here, we were staying nearby.

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER •NO ONE SERVING FOOD FOR A WHOLE HOUR SEATED AT 4 ATE AT 5 AT A CARVERY. •THE CHAIR BROKE WHEN WE SAT ON IT AND THEY HAD THE AUDACITY TO SAY “Did you break it on purpose”

Great location. Easy to find from where we were. Friendly staff. Food was just ok. The mussels weren't fresh - the texture made them seem frozen at some point and some were cold, seems like a supermarket boil in the bag pack. The sirloin was ok but a bit bland.

Have never stayed but the restaurant is good, food excellent and the atmosphere is nice

Great little pub, lovely beers, been coming here when on holiday in Newquay since 1982.

With no booking they squeezed us in to eat. Nice location, nice pub, great food, friendly service. Would we return? Definatly - thanks for a really nice meal.

WiFi is very good, I had travs stack burger best thing I've ever had, wedges a 10 👏✌☺

Me and my partner each ordered the stack burger and I’m glad we checked before we ate it, the buttermilk chicken was pink all the way through. The rest of the meal was nice but we really did not want to risk eating the chicken so we both left it.

So disappointed after visiting tonight. I've been going to this pub for years whenever I'm on holiday near by. Whilst there was nothing wrong with much of the meals that we ordered, there was nothing special about what we had, especially given the price. However it was a member of my group having their concerns about undercooked chicken being dismissed in the way that they were that I found most disappointing. There was a half hearted offer of getting it replaced, but that would have meant a member of the group eating after the rest of the party. Like I said, I've been a loyal if infrequent customer for over 20 years... but that may now change.

I ordered the buttermilk chicken, expecting the typical battered deep fried chicken breast, however I was presented with 3 ratty bits of chicken that were visibly undercooked. When asked if everything was OK with the meal I raised my concerns and was quickly assured that they cooked the chicken twice so it couldn't possibly be raw and my concerns were dismissed. Wouldn't recommend eating at this establishment

Great! There’s a pool table and a darts board along with varied options to eat and drink.

Brilliant place dog freindly warm cosy atmosphere good prices for drinks Food looked good on menu we didn't eat here just popped by for a drink on our holiday Excellent service warm and freindly

Telephoned reservation, and left message, they said they would call back. Didn't call back, so assumed they were busy. Arrived on time and was told no reservation as they don't accept messages, when I said the answering machine mentioned they'd call back, I was told they ignore that so I wi know next time. Website menu turned out to be totally out of date. Placed order at 6pm including a Special of the day and was informed 5 minutes later they had run out, at 6pm that is ridiculous ! Food was just average Definitely NOT recommended!!!!!!!

Just ate at the travellers and how disappointed.. both had burgers.. ( well a load of crumbled burnt peppery mince)couldn’t eat… brioche bread roll which wasn’t stipulated on menu so thought it was bread roll… some the chips were ok but some raw… best part was portion onion rings… staff were made aware

Great food, great beers on tap, fantastic location and good service too. Will be going again!

Good value and friendly staff at the sunday carvery. Three choices of meat with limited vegetable options. Roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and crackling. Tasted homemade. Like granny makes! Three sittings at 12, 2pm and 4pm.

One of the best pubs I've visited! We were staying in the area for 10 days and ate at The Travellers Rest twice, both times the food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Seafood Linguine (this is to die for!!) and vegan tagine on our first visit, and the food was so good we had come again. We both ordered steak M/R with no sauce, just the flavoured butter it comes with. We usually have low expectations ordering steak out, but the meal was outstanding. The meat was tender, and everything on the plate was so full of flavour, even the tomatoes! Our 2 year old daughter had cheesy pasta which turned out to be tagliatelle with the most decadent cheese sauce. I would have happily ordered that a side dish for myself! The prices were very reasonable with the steak costing just £20 (about £10 cheaper than back home!). We visited a couple more times just for a drink in the garden, and the service from all front of house was excellent every time. They were very friendly, happy to cater for dogs and small children and always had a smile. The decor inside is beautiful with lots of fairy lights, and the pub had a great feel to it. You felt comfortable going for a casual meal/drink or dressing up a bit. Highly recommend a visit! We will most definitely return.

Came here for food whilst on holiday. Food was incredible. The rosemary salted chips are 😍 everyone's meal was cooked beautifully and didn't leave you hungry. Nice atmosphere, fabulous wallpaper. Staff efficient, friendly with plenty of personality. We don't have children, but the staff interacted so lovely with children on other tables, so definitely family friendly

Lovely place, decor inside is beautiful and staff are really friendly and polite. Sunday roast was amazing, best iv had in newquay and the puddings 😍 will definetly be returning.

Very good pub the beer is brilliant.

Local pub with a good menu selection, including a daily fish special. The smoked haddock risotto was amazing, the triple cooked chips were very tasty, but the triple burger was way overcooked and inedible, which was a shame. Location was a nightmare to find with Sat Nav.

Didn’t actually stay at the Travellers rest but had an evening meal there. Friendly staff clean and tidy pub with a good menu would recommend the Trav burger great value for money washed down with a cider. If your not driving the have a good selection of lagers, ciders and real ales.

Dropped around the coast road for dinner. Fabulous views from Watergate Bay, then a few minutes drive to the Travellers Rest. Lots of parking spaces. Plenty of seating. Very clean building. Had fish and chips. Lovely hot food.

Visited this yesterday for food they completely change the menu from the last time I visited so I ordered a fish pie bur was so disappointed it was mostly mash potatoes with a few prawns thrown in no other fish and the vegetables over cooked terrible for what the prices were.

I went to Travellers rest with my 2 year old son. As I walked in the staff were extremely friendly to me and my son. We went for food. The food was amazing like I had gone to a top notch restaurant. I like my steak rare, normally I get given medium rare in restaurants here I got rare! The amount of food you get is very generous. Service was quick & staff were helpful. Regulars at the pub were extremely friendly, chatty & didnt mind my son patting their dogs! My son & I definately will be going back next time we visit! Highly recommend this place! Its Child & dog friendly with a lovely atmosphere.

This place is not dog friendly and will not have dogs backing had a bad time and won't be back

Stopped by for our evening meal, very impressed with the lasagne we both had, garlic bread was homemade and portion size was good for the price, the staff were very attentive and friendly considering how busy it was, would definitely recommend if in the area.

We had a marvellous dinner, the prawns were delicious & the burger was lush ! My husband had the linguine & it was full of flavour & fish , prawn & crab . Could not fault it. Very reasonable prices. We will definitely be back , staff were friendly too ...👍

Came for a motorhome stop over and had steak with lovely homemade onion rings, a huge portion of triple cooked chips all of which was absolutely fantastic. Can’t fault the food, staff were really friendly and helpful & very impressed with the quality of the food for such a reasonable price. Fantastic place, can’t wait to come back!

Good location, food was nice. Great service from Rikki.

Located close to Mawgan Porth, this friendly pub offers a warm welcome and a good range of local beers. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring the beautiful Cornish countryside. I decided to try the steak and ale pie, intrigued by its promise of wholesome comfort food. The pie did not disappoint—it was hearty and flavorful, with tender chunks of meat enveloped in a rich gravy. The triple cooked chips were a standout, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, they were some of the best I've ever tasted. However, my dining experience was marred slightly by the side of fresh vegetables. While peas and carrots are a classic pairing, the combination felt uninspired, especially when served alongside such a delicious pie. My son jokingly referred to it as "prison food," and although I found his assessment a bit harsh, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment. Nevertheless, the quality of the main dish and the exceptional chips more than made up for any shortcomings. The friendly service and cozy atmosphere further added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Overall, I would recommend this pub for its tasty food and welcoming ambiance, just be prepared for the occasional misstep in the side dish department.

Just popped in here for a spot of lunch a had the biggest bowl of mussels I have ever seen in my life, absolutely delicious, well done Kelly and Simon, what ever you touch turns to gold, to have one great pub is a achievement (The Tavern) but to have two is brilliant 👏 😀

A very warm welcome and a decent range of beers. We opted for the Tomahawk steak sharing platter for 2. It was a sight to behold, easily enough for 3/4 people. The meat was tender and delicious and cooked just as we like it. The Staff were very friendly as were the locals one of whom said he had the Tomahawk for his birthday and had failed to finish. We were also defeated. We had a lovely evening. Highly recommend the Traveller’s Rest for its food, service and ambience.

Brilliant , very comfortable , everything you need , fabulous views ,great food , will definitely be back 🙂

Nice little pub friendly staff good food.

Lovely place, had a great lunch here recently! Will try and go for Sunday lunch, but been warned to book in advance.

Fantastic pub with outstanding food. Really friendly staff. Portion size is insane, in a good way. Dog friendly. Well priced for the quality of food.

Stopped there after a long rainy walk along the cliffs, it was wonderful ! The mains were amazing, tasty and fresh, and as for the apple crumble with custard, it was simply awesome. Thank you for everything, we’ll come back for sure ! 😉

Best Sunday lunch we've had during our winter in Cornwall.

Lovely friendly staff, food was incredible and the portion sizes were out of this world, will absolutely be returning on our next holiday in Newquay

Go here every few months when we are out that way. Have had the carvery a few times and also food from the standard menu. Good selection on both and well priced.

Plenty to eat only thing wish veg and gravy not put on the plate pref secretly and food could have been warmer.

Lovely friendly staff and good food. Child and very dog friendly.

We didn't stay at the inn, just enjoyed the restaurant.

Excellent service and cuisine. Friendly owner, took order and had an amazing Gammon and chips. Blown away by quality of food and size of portion! What an amazing place!

On holiday as a family of 5 and 2 dogs, have been twice, food really good, friendly staff and the Sunday roast was probably the best we've ever had. Definitely recommend

Was quiet when we was here but our group all had lovely food and staff was nice
