Always a treat to come here. Absolutely packed even on a Wednesday night out of season. Food was lovely, service was great. Such a shame the council are bulldozing it to the floor next year. It will be sorely missed :(

Always brilliant, an absolute must when visiting PZ. We have been going to the Waterside for 20+ years and remember the Regent Meadery too. Just been three times in one week. So sad that it may close as early as March 2025. If you’re in PZ and thinking of dining there before then, make the most of it. We will miss it when it’s gone. Thanks for Cornish Mead, the Meaderies and all the good times.

As a local family that has spent a lot of time (and money) in The Waterside our latest visit with a group of friends really left us questioning whether or not we would go back again. This is not a complaint about the food or the service of the waitresses at all but the owner. We were sat in one of the booths by the till. As a frequent visitor of the Meadery, I remember the days pre-Covid when the booths had netting separating the tables rather than the brown leather(?!) screens. The addition of these and the insistence of keeping them post-Covid has meant that these booths now have less air flow, making them hotter. This was also the case last year when we visited during Golowan - it was uncomfortably warm. During this visit, it was so hot in our booth so we rolled up the brown screen a little. This provided some ventilation. The owner came down and he was so aggressive and rude towards us and as locals we felt that this was unnecessary. He told us we had ruined the screening because we had taken all of the drawing pins out - we hadn’t. We had in fact taken one out. He then stormed off. This ruined our experience at the Meadery and we will not be returning before it is sadly knocked down. What was once our favourite restaurant seems to be a million miles away from how it was in its heyday. If the owner wishes to open up elsewhere then perhaps a course in customer service would not go amiss. The Waterside Meadery will be a huge loss for all of us in Penzance and the surrounding area but the customer service of late will not be!

Things started off well with very attentive service but as the evening went on, and things got busier, it dropped off. The starters were hot and tasted good. I had vegetarian lasagne for the main and it was a crime against food. It was bland and didn't have a single vegetable in it. Desserts were ok but I feel some of them were overpriced. Weird atmosphere but the building is pretty cool. If you like deep fried, bland, beige food then give it ago.

Very first time eating in a meadery. It was nice but very dark inside for those not expecting this like me. Nice theme inside, you are pretty much showed to your table and that was it really. Appeared to be short staff and waited quite long for service. The food came out fresh and was not bad at all. I found it of nothing special and mostly deep fried. It is one of those places you go to as per your preference one of which I will be putting down as experienced.

Was looking forward to a great evening out and got far from it food wise, 3 of us , 1 from a different table , ordered vegetable lasagna, on arrival it looked so very cheesless but we continued thinking it would be better inside like lots of healthy veg but alas, I'm afraid it wa mixture of watery tomato sauce and NOT ONE VEGETABLE 😲. Don't waste your evening going there.

My experience was fantastic - I was greeted warmly and service from all whom I dealt was friendly and accommodating. The food was served very quickly and portions are huge! The BBQ spare ribs are, honestly, some of the best I have had anywhere around the world, the meat so tender and falling off the bone. The place has a great and different theme and I can’t believe that the council wants to knock such a unique place down to build a car park. Surely it has to be one of the standout places of Penzance.

No wonder this place is closing down. We had friends staying with us and wanted to give them the meadery experience. Unfortunately, it was a disappointing one. We were seated quickly at the only table in the whole restaurant with the brightest bulb you've ever seen, no exaggeration you could have got a suntan from it. You wouldn't have it at home let alone a meadery. Straight away this wasn't the atmosphere we were looking to show our friends. Every other table had a bulb more fitting to the restaurant. The whole point of these places is to sit in the dark and eat with your hands. The bulbs were LEDS so we checked they weren't hot (obviously leds don't get hot) and stuck a napkin in the shade so it looked like all the other tables. We couldnt ask to be moved as the place was full. We had been served by a nice waitress who said nothing about it what so ever. She even laughed saying this table is always a bit too bright. Half way through our meal the waitress changes to some useless girl who looked about 16. She had a terrible attitude and looked like we had asked her for a lap dance instead of one of our group asking for a knife and fork. She also ignored requests for sauce with our meal and so our night showing our friends a meadery that was soon to close was becoming a bit of a disaster. THEN the useless waitress could be seen from our table that faced the kitchen pointing and talking about our table. This went on each time she went back to the kitchen. To the point where my friend had to mouth to her "what are you looking at?" It was embarrassing for us in front of our friends and just plain rude. School kid stuff. The manager then comes over and says it's a fire hazard to have the napkin in the shade. We asked her to touch the bulb it's cold, it's an led. She did that and then said it's too risky. Which was laughable. All because this little girl didn't want to be serving tables, she thought she'd cause some trouble. I'd think her nickname is probably Karen the Supergrass at school. We ate our food, which was good, made sure there wasn't a service charge, and left them not a bean as a tip. We would have normally left at least a fiver each for good service so they didn't luck out that evening. Also, how much does a coloured bulb cost? Pennies. So in short we are now glad it's getting bulldozed. We only live up the road, but maybe the attitude was how the are to tourists, which they probably thought we were. They get by on the one time trade I expect as you'd not go there again. My husband said he bets the useless waitress with the bad attitude is related as its family run. All I'd say is the poor parents! An awful person costing you money. I'd stick her out the back where she doesn't have to be polite. I also explained to the manager we had bought our friends here for the meadery experience and why isn't this table like the rest. She just shrugged and said it's always been like it. No apology or anything. Well, maybe spend three quid to make it look like the rest of the place. Come next year it will be in the dirt anyway, so maybe she's saving that £3 for a rainy day. From now on, we will go to the one in Newlyn or St Just. Nice people and way better inside.

The atmosphere of this place is awesome and it really feels like a medieval pub. Staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was plentiful but unfortunately the quality was not as good as the fish was very dry & the meat was only ok in taste.

We went here because it was highly recommended. We walked in right as they were opening and were promptly seated. From that moment on, the service was only responsive (meaning we had to track our server down to get any attention). The mead is the highlight and we indulged. It was STRONG and sweet. I couldn't drink it all, but I think most people would like that. The portions were all ample. I ordered the chicken with salad. It's the worst salad that I've had in England. It was mostly cabbage and the ingredients didn't blend well. There was no dressing. It was just blah. I had to put my bag on the floor because there wasn't enough room for our party in the booth. When I picked it up, it stank. I had to wash it. The lighting is so dim that you can't see the menu or what you are eating. I think the dim lighting may also hide that the place isn't that clean because the table was kind of sticky too. It has a pirate feel, but not really. There are some cheap pirate themed things hanging up, but it doesn't really feel like anything special. The worst part was the check said, "Service not included." Nowhere on the menu, or anywhere else, does it talk about a service charge. I think this was done because we are Americans. This is not standard in England and we did not encounter this anywhere else.

No where near to park. Tried over 2 days on the phone to book with no answer. Turned up and was told they could fit us in, drove to car park and walked to meadery to be told no space. We reminded them that they told us 15 nins before they could fit us in. They sat us in horrible seating, no good for me with arthritis in my back so they kindly moved us. This next table had us sat side by side and miserably had us facing a wall. Meal was OK, little choice of salad and staff were quite friendly.

The food was very poor, it was extremely greasy and the chicken was only just warm and not at the temperature which is required for it to be safe to eat. The tables were very sticky and probably had not been cleaned since 1970 when this opened. I was invited to a Christmas meal by my friends the table was not large enough and seating was extremely cramped. The staff were very poor I was not offered coffee or a dessert and they could not wait for us to leave. My friend was extremely embarrassed when she was told that dogs were not allowed, when she pointed out this was an Assistance Dog she was told they were not allowed. The staff obviously are very happy to discriminate against people who can't g out without their Assistance Dog. They have no respect for the laws on discrimination. Avoid this place at all costs

We managed to book this last minute which was lucky as it was busy. It’s quite dark and certainly fulfils the premise of a pirate ship! The menu is limited with the starters and mains being the same but different portion sizes, there is not a separate kids menu but again they do smaller portions. The food was brought out really quickly. The kids had melon for starters, I had the prawns and Nathan had the fish fries. For main we chose the chicken in the rough of different portions sizes and the ribs. I was the only one that didn’t finish. The ribs were massive! I was offered a take away bag. Our waitress was outstanding, very friendly and attentive. The mead was also good! Overall we enjoyed the food and the experience.

The staff were simply lovely, and the range of meads was impressive. We were able to get a table on a busy evening without a booking, which was great. Don't expect fine dining, as they mainly serve huge portions of junk food (which arrived unusually quickly and was not quite in keeping with the tone of the place) and the menu is quite limited (no vegan options when we visited), but if you're starving and fancy a few glasses/pints, it hits the spot.

Visited after a year's gap. Excellent friendly service and atmospheric décor. Food was standard fare but well cooked and well presented. The chicken was good quality - much better than that offered in most KFC outlets. The wine was reasonably priced and the fruit flavoured mead wines are well worth a try.

Hemos tenido un amigo venido desde Alicante en España durante dos semanas, ella tenía el Waterside Meadery en su "lista". Ahora he vivido en Cornwall durante 20 años y visitó Penzance durante más de 30 años. Por lo tanto, se puede imaginar mi sorpresa al encontrar un restaurante con un ambiente muy agradable y buena comida el nivel justo. Siempre pensé que este lugar era un lugar turístico y no para mí. Yo estaba equivocado. El personal es amable y servicial. Yo no sé, por ejemplo, que el limitado horario de apertura tiene Meadery noche. Yo no sabía esto y uno de mi grupo era que lleguen después de las 8 PM. El cuidado de la cocina abierta para nosotros. . Lo que fue un gran. cosa que hacer. Tuve una buena parte de la empanadas de setas (que recomiendo) y una cerveza que estaba correctamente Worthington sirve. Los otros de mi grupo tenía el pollo y el pescado las rodajas. Todos eran muy agradables. Sí paquete del chip aspecto congelado. Pero estas patatas fritas eran fresco, de buen tamaño y bien.

A varied menu chicken and chips in the rough ie eating with fingers is very popular especially WITH CHILDREN OF ALL AGES!! Finger bowls provided. Childrens portions available if required. Portion sizes on the plentiful side so be warned! We visit because of the atmosphere also children choose it for various celebrations birthdays family get togethers as it caters for all ages.

Questo locale è poco più di un fast food.. Se entrate sappiate che il menù e' una paginetta con 7/8 portate di antipasto che fanno anche da piatti principali a seconda della porzione desiderata!!! Per cui la scelta è risicatissima e tutte le portate sono fritte, gamberetti, funghi, pollo, pesce.. Puoi scegliete il contorno di patatine o insalata. L'unica cosa non fritta del menu erano una lasagna vegetariana, le costolette o lo sgombro affumicato.. Vedete voi! Per noi molto deludente.

Another of the small chain of Cornish Meaderies, similar to the better-known one in Newlyn. The food is much the same in all of them - huge portions of chicken or scampi with chips and salad. Pretty dark inside, like Newlyn, which young children love. If you have to wait for a table at Waterside you can have a drink in the upstairs bar overlooking the harbour.

We recently enjoyed a lovely meal at Waterside Meadery, we have been a few times now and the we received the same warm welcome that we always receive from the staff, the food was delicious and well cooked. We will go back again to Waterside Meadery.

This is a very friendly welcoming restaurant. The staff are excellent - really cheerful and helpful. The food is standard fare but done exceptionally well and great value for money. The interior of the building is really atmospheric catering for large groups and yet having plenty of little alcoves for couples and smaller groups. Well worth trying the various fruit meads on offer.

Blackberry wine, need I say more? I have visited The Meadery twice as my boyfriend's Mum used to go there frequently when she was growing up, and the first time something about made me fall in love. It's so dingy, yet absolutely fabulous. The food is absolutely delicious, so comforting, the staff are so lovely and the mead is incredible. Honestly it has been an absolute highlight of a holiday to Cornwall for two years running and I would recommend this fabulous place to anyone visiting Penzance.

We were very excited about visiting here as my partner came here a lot as child when he lived in the area. The place itself is very interesting looking in the inside lots of little hide away tables for privacy and he decor just added to the atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful- love the outfits they wore again just added to the experience. The mead was amazing - my first time having any and by God it was strong. Good job we were staying in walking distance. The food was amazing!! Chicken in the rough was delicious!! I couldn't fit any more inside me then my partner wanted desert. It was just how my partner remember it as a child and he was very excited and was extremely happy. Will be returning to the area in the future and definitely coming back to this restaurant.

The best fish and chips I have ever had! We are staying for a family holiday and have waited all week for this. It did not disappoint. Great portions and value for money.

First time I’ve ever left a review immediately after leaving a place. Genuinely the worst chippy I’ve ever had. Swimming in grease and tasteless, made both myself and my partner feel physically sick. There’s plenty of decent places to eat in Newquay, I’d swerve this place.

Best seafood in town! The staff is wonderfully attentive. The food is always amazing and consistent. They offer a great selection of local wine. The chefs are the best! And if you're seated at the bar you can watch as they make the tastiest edible creations. SO DELICIOUS! We're locals and this is our favorite spot. The halibut florentine is a must or blackened halibut too!

Wanted somewhere special for my birthday a couple of week's ago. We booked for Sunday lunch and we booked well in advance and asked for a good harbour view table. Was a bit disappointed to arrive and find the table at the back of the dining room directly in front of the wood burner (was a tad hot). That being said, the roast lunch was exceptional - we would go as far to say probably the best roast we've ever had. Restaurant is looking a little shabby around the edges (when I pulled my chair out to be seated there were crumbs/debris on the chair), a table leg being held level by a serviette and generally could do with a tidy (downstairs loo a bit shabby and the door handle is broken). I suspect after a busy summer season they will shut for maintenance. We would recommend and would return - just needs some slight improvements. Food cannot be faulted and staff were lovely.
