It was raining we were hungry so we went in a was lucky to have a table. We had the mussels and fries and it was absolutely amazing. The sauce was so tasty I could have just had a bowl of that !! The chefs obviously are brilliant at what they do all the good that went to other tables also looked delicious. Service was 1st class and we cannot wait to go again

I actually think this is better than Rick Stein's Sea Food Restaurant, which we had visited a few days prior. I had to change my booking time at the last minute and it was accommodated with no fuss. The scallops and Mackerel starters were delicious and our mains, sea bass and John dory were just as good. Good portion size meant there was no room for dessert, but the wine and beer were both excellent too.

Overall very disappointing. Mussels were pale & flavourless. One of our party chose sea bass and at £10 more than all other dishes expectations were high. It was so small, for the price you’d expect a whole fish but it was one very small fillet. The scallop main dish consisted of just 2 scallops, pretty outrageous really. So sadly won’t be returning to this pub.

Auf der Suche nach etwas Essbarem an einem stürmischen Sonntagabend sind wir im Tolcarne Inn gelandet und wurden absolut überrascht!! Von außen erwarteten wir ein normales Pub, wo man auch etwas zu Essen bekommt! Der Blick in die Speisekarte verriet uns schnell, dass wir hier vermutlich mehr bekommen würden, als wir eigentlich wollten! Der Entschluss zu bleiben hat sich jedenfalls gelohnt!! Super leckeres Essen, freundliche Atmosphäre, zeitnahe Bedienung, alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Abend! Nicht ganz günstig, aber es war seinen Preis auf jeden Fall wert!! Seafood- und Fischliebhaber kommen besonders auf ihre Kosten!!

Lovely tapas style food with freshly prepared fish, and shellfish. I had scallops with smoked aubergine lime pickle and dukkah which was a little bit overpowering for my taste. Breaded Monkfish with scallop row taramasalata and courgette, pickled fennel and capers salad was deliciously refreshing. The sourness of pickled salad balanced the fried monkfish. We shared Mackrell Niçoise salad which was delicious,

We had a lovely meal at The Tolcarne Inn. The devilled egg, ray terrine and trout starters were all delicious. Mains John Dory and Silver Mullet. All impeccably cooked and presented. With a bottle of Viognier and service our total bill was £160 for two of us. This was a cool showery Monday evening in Newlyn and apart from a couple of other diners the inn was empty. A table laid up for six appeared to be no shows which must be a source of extreme frustration for the inn. Highly recommended for anyone like us for whom this was one of the big holiday nights where we were braced to receive the bill!

We arrived on a dark cold and wet Saturday night to a warm and welcoming refuge in this cosy and well run inn. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Service excellent. Good choice of wines. The homemade bread was also excellent. My devilled anchovy eggs a flavour bomb. Partners oysters were fresh and well presented. The fish we had was cooked to perfection and served with well judged accompanying vegetables and sauces. These chefs know what they are doing and the food is prepared with care and attention to detail. This was the best meal we have had for a long time - all the better for being unexpected. Food to feed the soul. Thank you!

Overpriced and mediocre. The service was slow and poor (we were asked whether we would like tap, still, or sparkling water upon arrival yet had to ask for it 20 minutes later; dirty plates left on the table for inordinate periods despite waiters drying cutlery. The table beside us had the same experience: they became so bored waiting for their plates to be cleared that they went outside for a smoke, returned, and still waited. They also appeared to receive the wrong mains on a night when they ostensibly were celebrating.) The food does too much. Scallops cooked perfectly but then overpowered by slices of sausage; John Dory seemed cooked well yet was smothered in hollandaise sauce; courgettes with harissa is a mash that favours neither element. This came to £160 inc. a bottle of wine. (Payment of which, having waited again for some semblance of service, we sought and paid directly at the bar.) An expensive meal with food that aspires yet disappoints and service that abandons.

What an experience! Brilliant food. From beginning to end, the food was marvelous - delicious homemade bread & smoked almonds; two very special starters, smoked salmon and scallops, clearly well thought of and beautifully plated; John Dory as a main plate with courgette and lemon butter sauce on the side; and finally, two amazing desserts: Pistachio, almond and peach tart with ice cream and dense chocolate mousse with red wine cherries. We absolutely loved it! Well done to everyone behind it the making of our experience.

£6.10 for a pint of lager, £6.85 for a lager shandy - you get half a pint of lager yet still charge you for a pint and then an extra 0.75p for lemonade! that's how it is and in my eyes that's a rip off. I disputed it with the barman he agreed with me

Stayed in St just for a week, booked and went for a 50th birthday meal here in Newlyn, such an amazing place the inn it’s self was quaint and lovely old building, nice outside eating area in the sun, As for the food everything was cooked to perfection, the Chef certainly knows his stuff, the only down side was there wasn’t enough to eat, ( I could have eaten everything twice at least, ) 😄 Will be back again as the food was stunning and well worth going for. Thanks for a great meal.

I was recommended to try this restaurant and was not disappointed went for lunch. I wanted something off the evening menu no problem the chef was happy to cook the fish. Ordered the home made bread it was warm a good start to the meal. The fish was cooked perfectly one of the best I have ever tasted, much better than a well known restaurant in Padstow. The staff were very welcoming and attentively so nice for the solo customer.

Sailing along the south coast towards Isles of if Scilly, we stayed a couple of nights in Newlyn. And saw this little restaurant with a menu that's changing every day due to fresh catches and dito delivering. A real treat! We orderd first a main fish dish and that was great. The dessert could not meet the same level, and now we know you shoud not ask for cafee at the end. Not cheap. The venue is simple, the way we like it. Chairs coud be more comfortabel.

This historic maritime pub, masterfully helmed by chef and restaurateur Ben Tunnicliffe, offers a culinary haven for seafood enthusiasts. From the moment we arrived, the warm, inviting atmosphere set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The pub’s charming maritime décor, coupled with its prime location overlooking one of the UK’s most important fishing ports, creates a unique and cosy ambiance. The menu, thoughtfully curated and reflective of seasonal abundance, showcases the freshest local seafood. We started with the salt cod fritters – a delicate, perfectly seasoned delight. For the main course, the goujons and monkfish were outstanding, each dish crafted with impeccable attention to detail and bursting with flavour. The chalkboard menu, ever-evolving to highlight the best of each season, ensures there’s always something new and exciting to try. Service at the Tolcarne Inn was exemplary, with attentive staff who were knowledgeable about the menu and passionate about their offerings. Despite it being a busy Friday evening, the team maintained a friendly and efficient service, making us feel truly valued. To top off the meal, the dessert was a visual and gastronomic treat. The rich, decadent chocolate tart with pecan topping and a scoop of creamy ice cream was the perfect end to our culinary journey. Overall, the Tolcarne Inn exceeded all expectations. Its combination of top-notch food, excellent service, and picturesque setting makes it a standout destination in Cornwall. We left with our hearts and bellies full, eagerly anticipating our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Newlyn – the Tolcarne Inn is a true hidden gem by the sea.

Food was absolutely wonderful, well presented and really good quality. The only negative thing I have to say is that the tables are a bit squashed in and the chairs unfortunately rock on the beautiful slate floors (which is going to happen really) They seem to have tried their best with the rocking with the tables by putting wedges under the table legs...so you can't really do much about the chairs. The issue is that you have barely enough room to move to cut your food because we were sta pretty much shoulder to shoulder.

Myself and my partner knew nothing of the place prior to visiting, we saw that from the outside it looked inviting and seemed to be ideally placed very close to the harbour and the fish market and we could see from signage outside that they served sea food so we'd give it a go. For a start we would like to especially commend the staff, a young brunette lady and a young moussy brown haired man with glasses, both were very polite, friendly and helpful and after some poor experiences with rude and judgemental staff at other premises it was an absolute breath of fresh air. We ordered salt cod fritters with aioli as starters each, these were presented beautifully and ample in portion size and were absolutely succulent and delicious. A short while later our mains came out, these being cod, turbot and trout goujons with lemon and herb garlic mayo and funky leaves. Yet again, beautiful. The fish was decidedly fresh and succulent, beautiful batter and well presented, simply delicious. The whole while we were asked along the meal if we were happy and enjoying our food, but not in an invasive way, in a friendly and polite manner. Myself and my partner were so pleased with everything I asked how best to go about personally providing positive feedback towards the staff members for being fantastic and was told to write a review on TripAdvisor which has brought me here to write this review. Highly recommend.

My partner and I (with 2 dogs) visited for lunch today. I hadn’t made a booking prior but popped into the pub and asked if there was availability for us and the 2 medium to large dogs. I was told we could have the table by the door as it would be the only one availability. Great and no problem I thought, we were happy to get a table & we were happy to be sat there. (Although what became apparent as more locals came in without a booking that there was flexibility in where people could be sat - though I understand without a booking and not being a regular this may have been their unofficial protocol. Though that wasn’t an issue in our eyes I just wanted to include for this review). What started as a positive experience, as we were looking forward to sea food, gradually became a bit of a sour experience and disappointing. Whilst we are ‘tourists’ we wouldn’t return. We were made to feel like an inconvenience by the two hosting ( and young female with brown hair tied up). A summary of the experience: - the female hosting (young female, brown hair tied back) huffing to the other server she had given the seats to us when further people came to enquire about tables. We could overhear this being so close to the bar and the till. - not being asked how the food was / anyone checking on our meal once the food had been served - no calories detailed on the menu -the portion sizes are small -the fish didn’t have any particular taste to it / it wasn’t anything special. Though in contrast, the chips and garnish salad alongside the meals were delicious. - Charged twice for our drinks when the bill came - no apology from the male server when we raised this (young male, brown mousey hair with glasses). - when asking about the parking refund being told as I had paid via the app they couldn’t do it as he needed “evidence in the till”. I offered to email my digital receipt across. A few minutes later was told that was ok and was handed the refund in 20ps in cash. I trusted what I was being handed but it transpired I had been severely short changed. For me, it is not the fact of the value (c.£1) it is the dismissive attitude of the server and the deliberately short changing / being difficult with 20ps. (If they only had 20ps no problem but say so). If they market themselves as dog friendly and offer pay back for parking then this should be a standard offer & if those that ask for this are not made to make those visiting feel a burden. I did notice retrospectively on Facebook a couple of people had included this in their reviews.

We were looking for a good fish restaurant without crowds of tourists. The Tolcarne Inn is a cute, sophisticated pub serving excellent food.

We had a very nice roast lunch here today. So flavoursome & an exquisite dessert. Nice polite staff too. The only downside for me would be where we were seated. I booked approx middle of the week but I think I would be correct in saying that we probably had the worst table in there. Right next to the door & opposite the bar. Yet I did notice others who came in on speck had much better tables. I think for the price & considering the interior layout we wouldn’t return. Pity.

This place gets a lot of good reviews and I can see why! It is certainly not in the cheaper range of places to eat but sometimes you want to spend a bit more (especially on holiday) and get something a little extra! It's cornish and by the sea and as expected they have a lot of very good seafood on offer (they have meat dishes too but fewer purely vege options - I'm a vegetarian who sometimes stretches to fish so was okay but if you just want vege it's worth pre checking the menu). The food however was exceptional! I think it's worth the price and would happily go back. Service was friendly and unpretentious and it was very busy on a Wednesday in the first week of January! Good selection of wines and good recommendations for them by the staff (plus they gave me very generous sized 'tasters' of a couple of wines each time I asked for something different. The sign of a place that's confident to be judged on what they offer!) Loved it and would definitely go back

RATS IN THE GARDEN & SMELLY MUSSELS!!! My husband and I experienced both of these whilst down in Cornwall last month. NOT AMUSED! We decided to go for the mussels and was advised one portion would be enough for both. This was of course not the case. There were 11 in total with only 6 of them of size that was worth eating. I also expressed my concerns about the unfresh smell radiating from the bowl in front of us. I was advised that they were mussels, they are meant to smell! Totally unimpressed but at least we made the rats happy with the smelly mussels we threw down for them before leaving.

We’ve been here three times since 2020 when we’re on holiday and every time we’ve had consistently great well presented food! With really delicious fresh fish from Newlyn harbour being the star of the show. We’ll be back next year I’m sure

if you charge £13 for a crab sandwich, you best make it the best one I've had! Decided to stop here as we cycled down the coast but we could definitely have got something better elsewhere - tried to order the crab sandwich from the main bar with the other food but were told that it needs to be ordered at the hatch (bit weird, but ok)... then, even though we were eating in the beer garden, the food came separately and the sandwich came in a (pointless and single-use) plastic sandwich holder... why not save plastic and throw it on a plate?? Whilst you're at it, for £13, why not put a couple of lettuce leaves, slices of Cucumber, onions or pea shoots if you want to be fancy! Basically, it's a decent pub, beer garden has a view of a wall, food is decent but not worth the price, service is with a smile but could be better. Unless the price comes down, go elsewhere.

Very well deserved 5 stars, wandered in off the street, seen the menu outside, big fish fan; what a find, impressed. Later found out I've eaten at the sister restaurant/pub, the Packet Inn which I was equally impressed with.

Exceptional dinner. Fresh ingredients masterfully prepared, delightful atmosphere, excellent service, a beautiful selection of wines, and even the playlist used in the background was so tasteful, with indie bands of the 2000. Even the coffee was good, which to me is always a pleasant surprise. A must, if you are around.

The food was amazing. The mussels and scallops are fresh. The kids love the fish fingers and chips and also the dessert. Sticky toffee pudding was the 💣

If you want to know what top rate fine dining food is, in a friendly pub atmosphere, this is the place. The wife & I were quite blown away. I had the popular lemon sole and she had the scallops. Both, melt in the mouth gorgeousness of what really good food can become, in the right hands. Cheese & a lemon posset for pud. It was simply some of the best quality food. We can't wait to go back again.

Popped in here for a cream tea, deliciously warm scones with jam and clotted cream, a real treat. Very reasonably priced. The staff were lovely, very friendly, would definitely recommend.

The ice creams here are beautiful! Really generous portions and are very well presented. The customer service we received was outstanding, my daughter had a massive meltdown (ASD) and they were nothing but supportive, understanding and helpful. We'd had a very tough day today with meltdowns galore and this one was by far the worst of the day yet I never felt alone or judged. People like you make the biggest difference and I am so very grateful for you going out of your way to help and care. Thank you x
