Trennick Mill in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Very welcoming and food good, we went there after being disappointed by another place we went for lunch today and wish we went here first

Staff nice, but cheese scones disgusting. Over heated in microwave, so soggy and tasted very sweet. Think they'd used sweet scone mix and added very small amount of cheese. Said this to manager, but it seemed to make no difference . Chocolate brownie was passable, very sweet, but not very chocolatey

This is such a brilliant restaurant, the staff are extremely efficient and although it was busy we didn’t have to wait. The food is freshly cooked and hot and well presented and there is plenty of choice. I highly recommend everyone to visit. It is in a lovely position opposite the park and easy to park.

I had breakfast on two occasions as well as Sunday lunch. The seating area is comfortable and the service is impeccable. All credit to Demelza and her colleagues. There is an excellent choice of dishes on the menu, all the food is home cooked and couldn’t be better. Very good value for money.

Lovely location. Very friendly staff. Varied menu plus Sunday Roasts. Seating inside and out. Parking on the road outside. View over Boscawen Park and next to the duck pond. Very enjoyable look forward to the next visit.

We have a great grandson who lives with us he is 8 and we wanted to make his birthday a day to remember he has such dreadful times before arriving with us. So I booked a meal at Trennick Mill and they also made him a theme birthday cake which they brought out after our meal and sang happy birthday to him. He was so surprised and slightly embarrassed but he loved it. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for making him feel special and loved. What a wonderful place, excellent food and wonderful staff.

Always the best! We have never had a bad experience here. Exceptionally good food, the Sunday roast especially. The staff are always friendly and welcoming. Dogs are allowed in here too which is great, our dogs are better behaved than some kids!!! I’m really shocked at the bad reviews left for this place, don’t let the minority put you off, Trennick Mill is clean, welcoming, serve the tastiest of food and is highly recommended.

We eat here a lot as we live nearby but had never had a Sunday roast. We popped in on Mother’s Day without a booking and we were made to feel very welcome as they squeezed us in before a later booking. I thought I would write a review as it was the best roast we’ve had in a very long time! Two of us are vegetarians and the nut roast was delicious. I highly recommend Trennick Mill to anyone who wants a quality, home cooked feel Sunday roast.

Apparently the owner isn’t bothered about this review. Nobody reads reviews anyway! So here is my review that nobody will read anyway… We were at the park and had to get lunch. It was close by so we went in, we’re given a table and served quickly. Told about a wait on food which we were fine with and carried on. The waitress was distracted by an emergency on a nearby table and my son had ordered the ham, cheese and pineapple pizza off the main menu. The cheese and pineapple pizza (which we hadn’t ordered) came out for my son and we assumed ham was hiding under the cheese. It wasn’t. We asked the waitress why there was no ham on the pizza, she bought out a plate of ham!! On leaving, we mentioned to the staff that our child didn’t like the pizza, it wasn’t what we ordered and could we have our £8.95 refunded because 1) it wasn’t what we ordered and 2) it’s a cheese and pineapple pizza! The waitress who took our order said no refund as we hadn’t mentioned anything before, we actually did and that’s why we were delivered a plate of ham! She went to find out from owner and apparently because they’d sold 11 pizzas and had no complaints they wouldn’t give a refund or even a partial refund. I said it wasn’t a complaint about the pizza, it was about not getting what we ordered. Out comes the owner! She said the order was read back to us (it wasn’t due to ongoing emergency on another table) and it’s our fault. Well, it’s not our fault though is it! It was their mess up and we paid for cheese, pineapple and bread (it looked pretty RANK!) and we told them this and she got uptight that I was calling their food rank. Well, if it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck… Tourist trap. Not looking after locals who keep them going through the cold wet winters. Absolutely diabolical, non existent customer service! The owner is what makes the business and even though the other staff did what they could and agreed with us not getting what we ordered and getting a refund, the owner said no and got aggressive! As soon as she came out the kitchen she was determined to argue instead of talking rationally about it which is shocking as an owner/manager! Anyway, I won’t get a reply to this as “they don’t respond to negative reviews” and again, “nobody reads reviews anyway!”. What an amazing attitude to get by in business in a cost of living crisis. Puts me right off even spending money out on substandard food!

3 of us went for lunch at Trennick Mill today, cousin had a gammon ploughmans, I had the cheese ploughmans and son had a 12 inch pizza. Excellent value for money and we all really enjoyed it. Will be back for a return visit soon.

Generous and freshly made sandwich. We wanted to share, so they gave us an extra plate. Full of fresh chicken. Very quick service

Well CONSISTENCY firstly service: we arrive and wait to be seated we are seen and ignored several times before finally approached and seated. We order Gammon Steak is just warmed up ham rubbish, chicken is old/over cooked and tough, baguette is a chunk (small) of bread and inedible rock hard. Good location but everything else is terrible - AVOID, AVOID, AVOID.

Just came in on the off chance with my mum. 2 lovely ladies behind the counter made us feel welcome . My mum had egg mayonnaise in brown bread with salad, and I had the quiche with new potatoes, salad and coleslaw. Absolutely lovely food, cannot fault it at all.

Amazing breakfast,great menu selection. Staff really friendly also dog friendly. Highly recommend this place.

Set in a beautiful parkland setting this restaurant/cafe has a lot going for it. Simple, perhaps a little basic, menu but something for everyone and very tasty. Amazing cakes. Bank Holiday visit and very busy. Service a bit slow, tables could be cleaner and not sure what to make of waiting staff - not unpleasant, did their job but something missing. Possibly a place to go when less busy. If you want to eat/snack fine but if you want to dine go elsewhere.

Went for lunch with family including young children, food and service was great. Kids loved the cornish ice cream.

My partner and I popped in to Trennick for a quick lunch and were directed to a table away from the roaring fire as was told the two tables in front of it were reserved. It was cold sat by the window and we are one retired farmer and on retired chef, had big coats on and are not whomps. The food, was good however and the staff pleasant and prices good for Truro. After an hour no one appeared to take up the seats as the fire roared on. at the reserved tables. However a member of staff did sit to eat her lunch. When I paid 27.95 for two with drinks (winner) I asked when the guests for the reserved tables were due. ‘Oh it’s in case a party of six comes in on the off chance’ we only have those two tables of six. So while the eight other customers made up of 4 x 2 sat freezing but spending money as I heard a gentleman mention next to us, Trennick staff were reserving tables just in case a six turned up. Ridiculous, I’ve run two restaurants as a chef and manager and we would prioritise the foot fall every time, if you are through the door you’re a captured gem. Especially in these times. So come on Trennick make the most of what you have. If a larger party turn up just humour them. So 8/10 for food but 0 for common sense.

Visited the cafe today - I go quite often and usually don’t have a problem. But today I was made to feel like a burden - the cafe was quiet with plenty of free tables. I went in with my new baby in her pram and as I was going inside (struggling with the door) asked by a member of staff “how old is your baby” to which me replying with “4 weeks old” her telling me they don’t let prams inside due to it being a small cafe. Which is fine except I’ve been in multiple times with the pram before today and the cafe was very quiet with plenty of free tables. Whilst I was in there having coffee I was made to feel like a burden with the staff member constantly moving the pram - which again was already tucked out of the way. It’s not the easiest thing getting out and about with a new baby and going out for a walk and coffee is usually something I really enjoy, but today I was made to feel like I wasn’t welcome at all and shouldn’t bother going back. Really let down by such terrible service, a shame as I really liked this cafe.

Perfect! This place is one of our favourites. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and the food is faultless. Location is great if you’re bringing your dog as the outside seating area is comfortable. Highly recommended.

Friendly service, good array of breakfast items. pancake stacks were huge and very tasty. Coffee was smooth and very tasty. Family and dog friendly decks outside, lovely area

I have visited regularly over the past few months and have always found Trennick Mill to be lovely. Food is really tasty and fresh with nice service. Dogs very welcome (well behaved ones), staff are welcoming and approachable. The team work really hard to try and keep everyone happy.

I regularly come here and more often than not need to book as it is usually very busy. Coffee is always amazing and I can honestly say they make the best BLT’s. I have pretty much had everything on the menu over the months and the quiche is one of my favourites too. I always find the staff friendly and they can’t do enough to make you feel looked after and happy. This coupled with the fact it is in an amazing position for walks and wildlife I couldn’t recommend it enough.

A late afternoon Sunday Lunch and only beef was left - and that was a bit on the 'sinewy' side, Veg etc well cooked and pleasant We were virtually the only diners and hence a certain lack of atmosphere which to be fair may well have been different earlier on. What cannot be criticised is the size of the dinner, We had the medium meal which we thought would be big enough for most, Sounds like a moan but the position was fine and the staff friendly. We left content enough - but hardly enthused.

Popped in for breakfast this morning whilst out for a dog walk. Great food and a nice atmosphere. Definitely recommend 😊

Called in for lunch, was served very quickly and the food was very good. The coffe too was lovely. We also had cake and we were given a generous sized piece. The quality of everything was first class and the staff were efficient and friendly....

Had heard good reports about the Mill, so we were a little disappointed. The place is in a really nice location for good walks in the nearby parks & along the river. The service was 'so/so' young kids simply needing better training. Tables were not...

Very slow service on a quiet day, waited over 45 minutes for food to arrive. Expected a high quality breakfast for £10, but overall disappointing with cheap low quality ingredients. Dirty tables, and echo-y atmosphere was a let down. This is a tourist trap. Wouldn't...

Amazing find on the outskirts of Truro. Perfect for our family and fluffy baby. Sat outside on the decking. Good varied menu to suit all tastes and amazing puddings. Service was good and portion size was excellent. Would definitely recommend

We visited twice last week, while on holiday in Cornwall. The food was great, well priced and consistent. They also provided great kids pancakes, which my daughter loved. The only snag was the gents toilet was out of action, which resulted in me having to...

Had the most amazing lunch here yesterday. Completed the tresillian to malpas river walk...very hungry. This place did not disappoint. Lovely location opposite the park. Coffee and sandwiches were perfect. Freshly prepared. Lovely staff. Great atmosphere. Provided water for our dog. They had gluten free...

Was on a recent short break near Truro and picked this place to have lunch based on previous reviews, we were not disappointed. We both had the fish platter and it was absolutely lovely, so much so were returned again a couple of days later...

Stopped in for lunch as we wanted somewhere to eat that was outside of the City Centre. Trennick Mill is in a lovely location by the river and, despite the December rain and hail showers, there were a number of people around. We were seated...

Visited with friends for lunch a few days ago.Having previously had a disappointing visit, I felt it only fair to say that this visit was a very different experience.Food was really lovely and a prompt service with a smile. The staff were attentive and friendly.Thank you.

Hi. can I just say how amazing your breakfasts are. we came down this morning as a little treat to yourselves to chirp us up as our week off hasn't gone to plan.. But I must say the visit really made up for it.. on...

I popped in this lunchtime with my dog as we were killing time until I had to pick the car back up from the garage. Found a seat outside with a doggie water bowl (refreshed and rinsed by the lovely waitress upon request) and ordered...

I went to meet friends today for coffee while we were waiting for the coffee myself and friend stood to the side by the small table with sugar on, near the rear exit. At present there is one way in and one way out due...

A fantastic takeaway service during lockdown. Thank you Becky and team. The lasagne and bacon and cheese pasta bake were epic. The desserts are so naughty, but gorgeous.

Met friends in today and experience totally spoilt by 2 seniors who chose to feedback to staff it was noisy due to children. The waitress then chose to inform our party of this feedback making it uncomfortable to stay and enjoy our afternoon. It’s advertised...

We visited on Sunday 2nd November for Sunday roast. As per usual a fabulous meal, the staff we most friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend it, if you are looking for a great meal at reasonable prices, look no further....

Visited today and service began ok, food good and arrived promptly. We visit here often and food is always good but service often slow. Waitress then changed and we waited quite some time for our plates to be cleared so we could order dessert. In the end we gave up as said waitress attended to others and continued to ignore us. On paying I aired my grievance to which she grunted sorry. I was going to purchase some more xmas products today but due to this very poor service decided against it and would be cautious to return in the future

Twenty one of us went for a meal last week. The vegetable lasagne was delicious and the bakewell slice excellent. Friendly service and nothing was too much trouble.

Fab from start to finish, food is delicious, it's location is super, the Waitress was just lovely and even though it was a tad Rainy outside, you would never have known it in this cosy wee groovy spot. Yes I thoroughly recommend

Passed the Trennick Mill while holidaying in Cornwall and thought we would pop in for a snack.Beautiful and clean.. service with a smile and the dog was made to feel welcome.Food was superb but the stand out was the homemade cheese scone with black pepper.Would eat here every lunchtime if I lived here.

It is a family-run place who very friendly and makes you very welcome. The restaurant is near a park and is on the River Fal and near Truro City. You take the road to Malpas just follow the road and you will find it on the left.

Booked table for twelve, seven children under seven and six adults. Orders promptly taken, friendly waitress. Argument between kids as only given two colouring in menus, swiftly sorted by additional menus and big box of colouring pencils.Lovely food, only criticism is that adults received food a long time before children, and some meals finished before others arrived, would have liked children to have got their food first. Adults don't mind waiting, kids do!.

Been here a couple of times whilst staying near by. We’ve had a selection of panini’s like Brie and cranberry to chicken and sweet chilli sauce with cheese. Some pate with toast and also cheesy chips. All had been very tasty and the service was excellent and polite each time. The cakes are all homemade and taste fantastic. Thy also serve lots of hot and cold drinks along with a good selection of alcohol.

I had phoned in the morning to reserve a table outside for 3 as it was a beautiful start to the day.

It definitely was a treat! The staff were very friendly and helpful, we had a table by the window for the 4 of us and a baby. It was perfect, until, we realised we were sat in front of the disabled entrance, when a woman proceeded to push the door into my arm, saying, 'you shouldn't be sat here, it's the disabled entrance, my mum shouldn't have to take the stairs or be put out because someone chose to ignore the disabled entrance'. Well, I thought, lady with the disabled mum, I didn't choose to be sat here in front of a door, which isn't clearly marked out to be the disabled entrance by the way, we were placed here by the staff, we also are here to have a nice day, no need to ruin it with your attitude and blatent disregard for any other possible reason why we were there. We also have 3 disabled members of our family, and I had my pram, but by all means, keep pushing the door into my arm that I was using to protect my child from said door until I could move out of your rude way.... Anyway... Rant over... Despite this brush with rudeness, we were treated to a 3 course meal of yumminess!! It was incredible. Especially the roast!! I'm a huge fan of roast potatoes and they did not disappoint . We will definitely be going back!! Although, we may request a table without a door right next to it. Definitely a place for the people watchers amongst us too. Plus, the coffee and the cakes are incredible. Thank you to the staff for making us feel welcome. Fab job on a busy day.

Have just read a criticism of Trennick Mill and I cannot and do not believe the comments/insults. We have been coming to this restaurant ever since they opened in Truro and also before at Pine Lodge. We have had Birthday gatherings and lunches with lots of friends and relatives from far and wide and every time there has been nothing but praise all round. I sometimes think that spiteful “reviews” are merely an attempt to get a free meal and I do hope that genuine people will appreciate the friendly, family atmosphere and superbly cooked food that is offered here.

We were looking for quaint Cornish place to eat not sure how but we came across this place and thank goodness we did. Very friendly helpful staff. The best fish cakes I have tasted. My husband had fish and chips which he expressed how lovely the batter was. Delightful area and I’m sure it would be even better in the sunshine.

What a beautiful day to enjoy my first ‘outside lunch’ of 2019. Friendly family run business. A lovely, varied menu. Our food was hot and absolutely delicious!! I’ll definitely be taking my Daughter there for lunch in the future. Thank you.

We were served quickly by a friendly older lady and went to find a table. After 5 mins our coffees arrived, which were nice. However our food (two panini) did not appear until 20 mins later by which time we had long since finished our drinks. The panini’s were not panini’s but part baked rolls you buy from the frozen section, and they were tiny. When I order panini I expect a flat Italian bread (ciabatta or similar) not a white roll that has been put into a panini machine. The filling was sparse and bland with semi melted cheese (assume it’s the pre-grated plastic cheese as this seems to resist melting completely). I didn’t even eat the second part as it was not edible. I took this to the counter and asked for it to be wrapped up to give to my dogs. I thought this would incite a question about whether it was ok, but nothing was said. I then informed the waitress that it was bland and not nice at all and expected at least an apology but all I got was ‘we’ve sold loads of these today and no one else has complained’. I think when someone brings a half eaten meal back to the counter the least you can do is to consider that something was not right or was not to their taste and offer the appropriate words (whether you agree or not)..its called customer service! Anyway I got the food back in foil, and the waitress could barely look at me as I paid up. There was no offer to reduce the amount even if it was by a couple of pound. If you are in the service industry you cannot treat your customers with indifference or a couldn’t care less attitude especially when there is a complaint about food quality. Needless to say we won’t be going here again, such a shame as it’s in a nice setting.

This is a review not of the restaurant but of Christmas pudding which Trennick Mill made to sell at a craft fair held in Truro in the run up to Christmas. I am very fussy about Christmas pudding, most commercially made ones are vile so I always look for hand made ones produced in small batches locally. The ladies selling were charming and I had a sample taste, which was good but as it was cold, nothing like as good as the hot pudding on Christmas Day. This one was expensive but Oh...it was Very Very Good Indeed! Moist, full of delicious fruit and flavours, with none of the bitterness which ruins so many. It's very rich, so the larger size gave 10 portions at Christmas - not expensive therefore per portion. Well done Trennick as I think this was your first time at selling in the marquee and I'm telling everyone I know in the hope you'll do it again next year and there'll be enough for me!

A group of about 8 of us went for afternoon tea and cake. I enjoyed their hot chocolate which can come with flavours, marshmallows and cream. They had a variety of cake and we all enjoyed various cakes. The service was friendly and efficient and we enjoyed our afternoon.

Six of us booked lunch at this lovely location and were not disappointed. The staff were friendly and professional and we were soon enjoying a great lunch. Four of us decided to have the home made pie which was really good, tasty and tender meat supported by potatoes of choice. Two others had the fish platter and the lasagna and were equally pleased with the presentation and quality. A great lunch and I would have no hesitation in returning in the near future.

Lovely warm welcome, nice fire, very cozy, good Breakfast and pot of tea. Home made Cmascakes looked good.

First time here, had lunch with a friend, good decor and service but very disappointed in the 3 cheese salad, it was 10.95 and consisted of 3 large chunks of cheese (a little too much) and a very boring salad lettuce, tomato, cucumber a few strips of pepper and a line of beetroot

Malpas is one of the loveliest hidden corners of Truro, by the estuary, while the Trennick Mill is to be recommended for its bright environment and its pleasant service and atmosphere. Food-wise I would suggest it is merely passable. Not bad, but some way short of great. Nevertheless it is a place I would return to for a coffee and a snack, when I've found that lover with whom to walk and talk in such a beautiful corner of the locality.

Found this lovely spot purely by chance a couple of years ago. Staff friendly and helpful, food very good. Bought a Christmas cake last year and came back this year to get another one we enjoyed it so much. What is lovely is you can sample the Christmas cake and pudding before you buy. The Christmas pudding came with a small pot of clotted cream and had been warmed - heaven. The bonus is they are home made as well. We will be back again next year when we come back to Cornwall. I love to support local businesses and this is definitely on our list to return to.

My wife and I went for a drive, we decided to take the Malpas road as it was lunch time we thought we would try Trennick Mill opposite the park, plenty of parking on the road and to the side of the property is a lake with ducks swimming and feeding a very pleasant walk around the lake with plenty of benches to sit and watch the birds. On entering the Mill we sat at a table for two with very comfortable seats, the waitress came and asked if we required drinks and also told us the special was a roast dinner with either chicken, gammon or beef and a sweet for ten pounds we both chose the roast chicken a pot of tea for one and a Diet Coke, the staff were very friendly it was a very pleasant experience, the roast was plated with about five roast potatoes, cabbage,parsnip, carrots and chicken, gravy it was delicious, time for the sweet we both chose apple and blackberry crumble with custard, yum! We will return.

Literally found this place by accident whilst on holiday in the area and walking our dog down by the river - and what a find !! Had coffee on our first midweek visit and after witnessing the lovely food at good prices came back for the 3 course Sunday lunch later on in our holiday. Absolutely lovely food served by a team of great staff in a nice location. Very highly recommended by us - and we would 100% return when we're next in the area.

Well worth a visit if your in the area! Food is all fresh and very tasty, have eaten here a number of times and visit regularly with my family! Pancakes are a must 😍 well worth the prices 😊

Visited today and enjoyed a delicious cream tea. Lovely large warm fruit scone with a generous pot of cream and tasty strawberry jam. Friendly waitress. Lovely park opposite to walk in and admire the beautiful flower beds.

Whilst out for a walk in this lovely summer heat we saw the menu for a 3 course roast for £16 .. we might have got funny looks due to the weather but had to try it out.. wow. And boy am I glad I did. Staff amazing. Time between dishes amazing. Setting amazing and the food itself was much better than I expected for the money. Every part of our visit was faultless.

Great ice cream and coffee, not stopped for food yet but will sometime. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Popped in as decided to go out for a bite to eat and sooo glad we did! Had 3 course meal , the main being Roast chicken. Meat was cooked to perfection, not at all dry. All food was lovely. Great staff, fab position by the park and very good value for money

I pass this attractive spot frequently and keep meaning to call in. While out on a mobility scooter "walk" yesterday I thought we would pop in for a cuppa and snack with the intention of checking out the menu for an evening meal. The access for my scooter was good at the outside tables and the area with it's pond adjoining and the Truro River opposite is beautiful. We ordered a tea, a coffee, one cake for my wife and a toasted teacake for myself and paid £10.05. The order was brought out, less the teacake which we were told would follow in a "couple of minutes. First niggle, no sugar which we had to go inside to fetch. Minor but irritating. After 30+ minutes my wife had eaten her cake and drunk her coffee, I had drunk two cups of tea but still no teacake. OK, it had been forgotten. It happens, usually when the establishment is busy (it wasn't), and I accept that. I went into the counter on my crutches and asked the price of a teacake; £1.95 said the lady. Could I please have money money back, I said, as we had been waiting for a long time and had to leave. After visiting the kitchen the lady said "a few minutes". I said no, I have been waiting a long time and have to leave. Grudgingly I was refunded the £1.95. I am not complaining about the error, I resent the poor attitude and the complete absence of any sort of an apology. A smile would have been welcome but noticably absent. I was polite at all times and did not use offensive or upsetting language. I regret I will be unable to try the full meal now as I do not wish to be served with a surly attitude. Very disappointing.

We have visited this place 3days in a row. We had evening meal with our son one evening. Coffee and cake another. Breakfast the last day. All three visits very good. Food very good for the money. We are hoping to move near here defiantly will be making this our regular. What we have had so far very good and very enjoyable. Think the breakfast little bit expensive £5.95 fine but it's only one of everything. You can pay £2.00 more and have extra which hubby did. He likes his cooked breakfast and have tried quite a few. He said breakfast excellent. Looking forward to our next visit now. The young lady that served us on Sunday morning at breakfast her customer service excellent,Very friendly nothing to much trouble. Well done customer service is few and far between these days. She is a credit to you.

This review contains facts from my visit with my personal opinion written at the very end so as not to influence you. If you like my review please click "HELPFUL", I would be very grateful for each and every vote.

Revisited with family and friends today. Our food order was forgotten and when asked where our child’s food was we found out it hadn’t been cooked. No apologise and a terrible attitude. Used to be a nice place to eat. Staff didn’t seem to have an idea what they were doing. Avoid!!!!!!

Well worth a visit, lovely roast dinners, beautiful location and friendly staff, we visit often and have never been disappointed! Dog friendly too which is a bonus!

A group of us had a good lunch provided by friendly and efficient staff. Whenever I use this restaurant, it seems to be pretty empty which is a shame as it then lacks atmosphere.

Whilst my reason for visiting Trennick Mill were not auspicious as I was attending a family funeral, the location, setting and service were lovely. Having ordered in advance, the catering team were able to offer as a great range of tasty vegan food, including roasted vegetable pasties, a selection of sandwiches and cakes in the style of afternoon tea and vegan cream teas. There were plenty of hot and cold drink options plus a licensed bar. The interior was pleasant although a little cramped for the number of guests gathered. Perhaps a large group would need to request a rearranged table.

We were looking for a venue to hold a family get together following the funeral of my mother. It was suggested we contact Trennick Mill due to its location and pleasant surroundings.

A tasty breakfast, a little pricy but really nice coffee. Friendly service, wife loved the sausages.

Visited today (Sunday 18th feb 2018) for a late lunch just before 2pm and have visited before and had good food and sometimes just coffees etc....unfortunately today was not a good experience

we usually have christmas dinner at a hotel restaurant but decided this year we would try somewhere else. we had a lovely Christmas dinner with my family, food was delicious very reasonably priced, staff were friendly and welcoming couldnt have been more helpful especially for my who is gluten and dairy intolerant. will definitely would not hesitate in booking again

To keep it short I will never visit this restaurant again it’s such a waste of a venue under the correct management this setting would be amazing sorry to say the food is below average and the service is horrendous it has a very unwelcoming atmosphere how it is classed as a restaurant I do not know. Felt robbed paying for such a awlful service

I can safely say in all my years of visiting restaurants and Cafe’s, that this was one of the worst!

Four of us went here after lunch for some cake and hot drinks. We all loved the place. The service was friendly and helpful and the chocolate cake was delicious!

Lovely atmosphere & setting, ordered the pancakes which were home made & amazing, definitely recommend! Friendly staff & dog friendly ☺️ well worth a visit.

Since our last visit to Trennick mill we understood they might no longer serve Sunday roast. We decided to book a table anyway. On arrival we were greeted and shown to our table. I could see on there display board above the fire place that they still served Sunday roast which was good. We decided to go for the three courses for £16.00. I asked if you could order just one course or two which they said you could if wanted ( £12 for one £14 for two. I decided on roast beef, which I’m going to say was the best restaurant roast I think I’ve had. I think you will need to book a table because by the time we left it was fully booked.

Having booked in advance, I visited here with six friends for mid-morning refreshment. The restaurant was quiet and we are able to sit together on one table in a room which we had to ourselves. Our orders for teas, coffees and toasted tea cakes were quickly taken and served shortly afterwards, by a friendly waitress. We were then able to enjoy an enjoyable leisurely get-together over good food and drinks, without interruption. We would certainly come here again, when we are in the area.

We happened upon this lovely place overlooking the park and beside part of the river. All the staff were very friendly and could not do more to help us, whether it was an ice-cream, a snack or lunch. They have a huge selection of ice-creams and all of their food is prepared with care and attention. Delicious. We will be going back again and again. We sat outside when the weather was good but inside is clean, tidy and welcoming too. Thank you to all the staff! Full marks for service, food and value.

Visited Trennick Mill on a sunny Sunday afternoon. I rang to book in the morning - which is advisable for any day of the week/time as they can be very busy.

Stunning location, wish I could say the same about the food. I saw offered a 'Fish Platter' on as a special, as it was very expensive I enquired (to justify this expense) whether it was all fresh and was informed that they have daily deliveries. Great I thought I would treat myself, sadly I got tinned sardines, defrosted prawns, vacuum packed smoked mackerel how sad is that in Cornwall. Beware the food it highly priced for you get! However, stunning location.

We booked for lunch at Trennick Mill 3 days ago, and were very impressed by service,food & friendliness of staff.We had forgotten that it was Play Day in Boscawen Park, and very busy, but the staff had put cones outside the restaurant so that customers could park. The order was taken very right away and the food arrived very quickly. Plates were hot, and food well cooked and tasty.Last time we went to Trennick Mill, twelve months ago, we were disappointed in the food and the service. Things have improved so much now -- we will definitely be going back again soon.

Arranged a party of 17 for a baby shower. Everything went to plan and nothing was too much trouble despite a few last minute changes to the requirements.Linda & the team were fantastic and made the day thoroughly enjoyable and I'm sure many of the group will visit again. I certainly will!

Wanted to order a couple of paninis, unfortunately paninis were out of stock. Was offered the same toppings on toast to which we agreed, not realising it was going to take 45 minutes to essentially do cheese on toast. 3 couples arrived, ate and left while we were waiting for ours! Basically this is a place run by teenagers who are clearly out of their depth!

Returned to Trennick mill on another visit to Cornwall this is a very friendly place in a lovely location, we only had a sandwich and coffee this time but was delicious with plenty of filling and a nice bit of side salad which had their home made dressing on, this has to be tried its lovely, i had to buy a bottle to take home.

Superb breakfast and great coffee. Salmon & eggs on toast and blueberry pancake stack yum! Friendly staff highly recommended.

Called in for breakfast as it was handy and on our route. Reasonably priced, and the Coffee was good. It's located just outside Truro near the local park and duck pond. A popular place for families, dog walkers and cyclists etc.

We had a nice relaxed lunch with friends. One of whom wanted gluten free there was a good selection to offer her which was great. Easy place to access. Great.

had drinks and food at various times and days during our stay in Malpas and each time was greeted by a polite, warm and friendly face....thank you.

Good food, freshly prepared, we had the lunchtime roast option which was delicious also quick to serve and polite staff and service also a lovely location.Definitely worth a visit.

Lovely, convenient location next to the park. Cake and coffee served is good quality. We had one of grumpy staff members who on two occasions was very cold and reluctantly explained which cakes were available - and couldn't raise a smile when my daughter smiled at her. The other staff member was much more chirpy but sadly we did not have her serve us. Hopefully you will have a better experience on your visit!

Lovely place to meet up with friends. Great relaxing, clean environment. Well recommended. Great to walk around boscowen park afterwards.

We went here because we had a 2 for 1 deal from the local paper for the Wednesday roast and firstly noticed that there were no prices displayed for this. However we ordered 2x roasts and a glass of red wine which was £4·95 and a pint of proper job. The bill came to £20-50 , which means that even if the beer was £4. then each roast was over £11!!! The roasts were definitely not worth that and the price does not warrant having to have plastic tablecloths!! The food was hot but vegetables overcooked, but roast potatoes and meat was good. Would not recommend.

Called intoTrennick mill for a drink and a cake and i was made to feel very welcome, a log burner was giving a wonderful homely effect ,with a good selection of home made cakes and a proper pot of tea not one of those awful metal things that dribble everywhere along with a slab of sloe gin fruit cake i didnt want to leave. well done Trennick

Nine of us were about to walk in the area and went in for a morning drink - coffee and hot chocolate. The service was efficient and friendly and the place was clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the drinks and were well prepared to walk!
