The best restaurants in South West

Best roast that we have had in a very long time. Amazing value for money, everything on the roast was cooked to perfection. Staff are lovely and attentive. Great selection of drinks, including Hawkstone lager.

Visited today with my elderly mother with very specific requirements on colour and style. Staff were extremely helpful and it felt like most of the ladies wear team were looking after us. Thank you so much

Amazing food, brilliant staff and nice atmosphere. Rooms clean and comfy. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

I am so disappointed and I don't write this review lightly. We were holding an event and ordered some pizzas a few hours before it went ahead. Whilst the pizzas were being made we were told that GF was not available. It was not made clear that whilst it was not available that our order was on hold. Our pizzas ended up being 1.5-2 hours late and to apologise, they gave us a voucher for a free dip. When the food arrived none of it was labelled - some were vegan, some were vegetarian and one was meat. We had to try and figure out which was vegan and when we asked were told 'the vegan one has cubed cheese'. It was almost impossible to tell to a point where one of our vegan guests ate a pizza with dairy. I am extremely disappointed.

I have nothing but praise for the consistent quality of food, wine and beer provided by this gorgeous pub on the edge of Truro city centre. It's an award-winning combination under the masterful stewardship of Tom Hannon. Don't leave Cornwall without paying a visit. If you're a local, you should already know just how good it is. I'll be back, as soon as I can...

I work close by and we have been to lunch there several times(before we were all turfed out of our offices due to Covid). Always reliable food and service. Reasonable prices, and nice environment. Was sorry to see news of the fire in the building, hope they recover soon. Once they are open again, give them a go!

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. We stopped in for a festive mulled cider, which was delicious. We will be back.....

Ten of us family members aged 11 to 78 sat down for a lunchtime meal together - not a takeaway. Excellent food and plenty of it, promptly served and well presented too. As it was lunchtime we had to prebook with a deposit, and we needed to pre-order what we were to eat. As it turned out there were no other customers while we were there to overhear or be disturbed by our chatter, so these precautions against no-show and waste made sense. Prices about par but good value for money. This establishment deserves to be busy (and for all I know it may have plenty of evening trade!)

Visited here for a lunch date with my husband during a visit back to my hometown. Checked Tripadvisor reviews and seemed a good choice. Our experience wasn’t that positive. Upon arrival we were told to wait outside to be seen so we did. Completely understand it is small inside so didn’t mind this until we waited over 5 minutes before we were seated by a different waiter than the one who told us to wait. 5 minutes doesn’t seem long but when standing outside (in rain) it definitely felt like it. At one point we were debating whether to move on but being short of time to pick children up from grandparents we waited. The waiter who told us to wait outside looked up twice from the bar area during this time at us and we felt this was rude not to address us. The restaurant was not overly busy and we could see at least a few staff on which sufficed for the area so not really acceptable. The waiter that served us was pleasant enough so we ordered Tacos and a burrito and two drinks. When the food came it was underwhelming - I had two tacos which consisted of two mini tortillas with a dollop of marinated shredded chicken on top - £9.50. There was no sour cream, guacamole or salsa which we’ve always had previously at Mexican restaurants. My husband had the chicken burrito which was more substantial but again there was a lack of condiments - £9.50. We noticed after that the menu stated sour cream, salsa etc as paid extras but the waiter didn’t make us aware of this which we feel would have been appropriate. We also order two grapefruit soda drinks - £3.50 each. Upon getting up to the till to pay we had to wait again because the waiter was talking to a friend outside and no one else came over. I quickly checked the bill and paid. I should have checked closer prior to paying as on the receipt I noticed almost £3 as a 10% service charge. I am not happy to have paid this with the service received that day. I didn’t go back to speak about this as we had to get off to collect our children. I would not recommend and will not return. I have had better Mexican food and service at a festival! I don’t usually leave reviews but in this circumstance thought I’d just let people know prior to visiting what you may encounter.

Very cute place to visit, nice cafe, nice mocha and good service well worth to visit.

We stayed for three very pleasant nights and dined twice. An attentive manager supported by his young but professional resturant staff enhanced an excellent experience. Obviously with its good resturant grading we expected good food. We got it - A very good chef resides here. We tried fish & chips the first night - absolutely lovely. The second dinner we went for nibbles to start followed by Cod chowder dishes with new potatoes, amazing special fries & fresh peas with asparo. Very good portions were served and all were perfectly cooked. The french wine we chose was equally good. Next time we visit the area we will stay & dine here.

Great welcome from the hosts, who gave great advice on things to do and see in the area. We had a lovely 1 night stay at the Notley Arms. Lovely clean and comfy room. Great evening meal and breakfast in the pub which had a great atmosphere. We would stay here again.

Fantastic hotel. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Room was very clean and quiet and the location is close to the train station and the town centre. Breakfast was very nice with a large selection on offer.

Popped in this afternoon for a cream tea and I must say these are some of the best scones I’ve ever had! They are made fresh every day and are partnered with some delicious jam too! Lovely outdoor seating areas for you and your dogs. Super reasonably priced as well! The members of staff working were so friendly and hard working! Definitely recommend a visit if you’re in Looe 🍓

Think staff a bit rude, place nice and clean.
