The best restaurants in Chacewater and Kenwyn Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Having wanted to go here for an age, we finally made it and wasn't disappointed. The small restaurant was a delight, with the owner (I'm guessing) being very knowledgable and attentive and the food was very, very good. Highly recommended.

We stopped in for a cream tea after a nice walk through the woods and enjoyed the cream tea. The scones were delicious- best we’ve ever had! Lovely ladies too! Highly recommend :)

Amazing little gem of a place! Situated on the side of a forest, farm shop stocked with everything you could imagine and more (local produce). had a simple but delicious cheese and tomato toastie with salad, just what I needed after a long walk in the woods next door. The staff are amazing! Super friendly and attentive, and happy to have a chat. We couldn't have felt more welcome. My dog was treated like royalty, and even had his own plate of biscuits given to him (for free!) The atmosphere is great. Rustic, quirky upcycled tables and chairs with a relaxed, comfy feel. There's armchairs and even a book shelf stocked up for you to have a cuppa and a read. There is a wonderful selection of plants in the nursery avaliable to purchase, and they have lots of workshops and events going on throughout the year - from foraging to pottery, glass making and basket weaving and more. There is also a bird sanctuary, which is just fantastic. I will be returning again and again, as will my family. Luckily we are local!

An outdoor Cafe for users of the coast to coast trail at Twelveheads. Great food at reasonable prices and with vegan options

Best pasties in Cornwall. Family say they are like my own homemade pasties so got to be good or we wouldn't buy them. Can be seen being made at the back of the shop

Our regular Saturday night takeaway, cannot fault these guys. The food is 10/10, atmosphere is great and the staff are fab, so friendly every time. The best "Food of the Gods" by far. Would highly recommend!

Nestled amidst the picturesque backdrop of Truro, The Penrose Kitchen is a gastronomic haven where every detail is orchestrated to create an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment my wife and I stepped into this culinary sanctuary, we were swept away by the elegance and sophistication that graced every corner. Our evening began with a libation that set the tone for the culinary journey ahead: expertly crafted martini cocktails moistened our palates as we perused the menu, our anticipation grew, knowing that we were about to embark on a culinary adventure unlike any other. For starters, my wife's choice of twice-baked soufflé was a testament to the chef's artistry. The delicate rise of the soufflé was a prelude to the exquisite flavours that awaited within. My own selection, the scallops accompanied by a bold partner – black pudding – was a harmonious pairing of textures and tastes that delighted my senses. As the evening progressed, we were introduced to a refined duet of main courses, which were accompanied with an exquisite Argentinian Malbec, my wife's choice of halibut over a bed of vibrant broccoli showcased the chef's mastery of marrying ingredients with what can only be described as a Zen like balance of flavours. The halibut, tender and succulent, seemed to glide effortlessly across the plate. My own dish, a filet of beef, was a rhapsody of flavours that reverberated with each exquisite bite. The Malbec, proved to be the virtuoso companion to the rich tapestry of flavours that emerged from every mouthful of steak. In the midst of this culinary opus, the service and staff shone as brightly as the cuisine. Attentive, knowledgeable, and discreet, they guided us through this culinary symphony with a grace that elevated the entire experience. The husband and wife team behind The Penrose Kitchen are nothing short of a culinary tour de force, their passion evident in every plate that emerges from their kitchen. As our evening drew to a close, we surrendered to the final movement of our dining experience – a finale that embraced both indulgence and refinement. A Cointreau liqueur coffee, bold and warming, bid adieu to the main performance, leaving us with a lingering aftertaste of satisfaction and contentment. The Penrose Kitchen is not merely a restaurant; it is an embodiment of gastronomic excellence that transports diners to the echelons of fine dining without the intimidating price tag. For both residents and visitors to Cornwall, this establishment is an invitation to savour Michelin-quality fare in an environment where every detail is curated to perfection.

Went in there today , music blaring out behind the bar and a drunken idiot sitting at the bar whining and screeching etc along to it, and also his language was appalling. After a short while my friend and I had enough of this prat and finished our drinks outside and then left. It was our intention of having a few drinks and then later on having a meal but decided to go somewhere else because of this numpty, as we got up to go I overheard him saying " F -off then " I've been a regular in this pub for some years now but it has gone right downhill since the previous landlady left. People who go in there for a meal etc especially with children don't want to hear this sort of anti - social behaviour . My friend complained to the bar maid who said she didn't hear the swearing etc bearing in mind she was at the bar next to this ponce. You might be making a few quid out of the likes of him having his couple of pints but how many other customers does this put off, Me and my friend will not return anymore

The food is super delicious, everything all home made, her cakes are very fresh & sandwiches are all fresh. The staff are just great always helpful. Always welcomed. So clean and fresh, just lovely.

A very special place in such a wonderful setting. The owners are lovely and very accommodating. We had an amazing lunch and the cafe is the nicest we have had in a long time. We would recommend this lovely tea garden and the area is worth visiting as it is stunning. Thankyou.

We stayed here for two nights just after Christmas. We had a lovely winter break. The ship was a fantastic place to stay, food and drink amazing as were our lovely hosts Dianne and Lee. The breakfast was fabulous, the pub food was fantastic especially the fish pie. Thank you for your lovely hospitality.

“Ridiculously good” was my son’s verdict about his burger at the Woodman’s cafe today! My daughter and I had the all-day breakfast, which was buy one, get one half price, and they were great as well. Quality ingredients, well cooked. The eggs had the yellowest yokes! I wish I’d known they had had hash browns as that would have made it perfect! This is such a great little cafe, brilliant for a bite to eat after a walk in the woods. It was raining today and we were nice and dry in their shelter. People don’t seem to know about them, but it’s great there! Go, eat good food, and support a local business!

Myself and husband decided to have breakfast here today, we both ordered a family breakfast. The gentleman who served us was very polite. On arrival of the food, it looked well presented and steaming hot. It was a lovely breakfast, can’t fault it at all. Everything was hot and tasted lovely. Would definitely recommend and will definitely have another trip there

Lugar increíble - disfrutamos mucho de la comida, el ambiente y toda la experiencia - el personal, en particular, era encantador y amable. Reservamos para la cena basada en comentarios, y no nos decepcionó - nuestras comidas eran deliciosas, y no demasiado caro para el centro de Londres. Nos divertimos tanto que probablemente volveremos de nuevo!

3rd visit for dinner in as many months. Great menu and good value for money. Wonderful services and an atmosphere filled with people clearly having the same experience. Will be calling again sometime very soon.
