The best restaurants in Colan and Mawgan Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Beautiful place to eat very friendly staff and the food was amazing, kudos to the chef and his team.

Fabulous inn. Lovely welcome and a great ambience. We had ham, egg and chips and a scampi and chips. Food was hot, tasty and good portion sizes. Also much better value than many similar eateries around Padstow. Dog friendly, spotless and a lovely little village to explore. Highly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful stay for my girlfriend’s birthday. Couldn’t fault anything and look forward to coming back

Glorious sunshine. Wonderful surf. Great food.

WOW WOW WOW just had the most amazing dinner I had the lamb and my husband had the sirloin steak both of which were cooked to perfection. The portions are very generous and came out piping hot

The carvery experience at The Traveler's Rest surpassed all expectations. The moment we entered, the aroma of roasting meat filled the air. The beef was the star of the show – tender, juicy, and bursting with flavour, crispy roast potatoes and fresh veg. The generous portions ensured no one left hungry, the attentive staff added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. If you're a fan of perfectly cooked beef, The Traveler's Rest must..

We had a lovely Sunday roast here. It is dog friendly and had gluten free options for me.

Their coffee is unique. We tried the Moose Knuckle and Snickers Latte and it was awesome. I enjoyed their breakfast sando in biscuits which I would order again.

The setting of this restaurant is out of this world! But the restaurant was much better when it was part of the hotel. It’s now trying too hard to be fancy and we missed the old menu! Especially the steak and chips! Totally underwhelmed by the food but overwhelmed by the view. If you can take the old restaurant menu and merge it with this location then you’d have a winning formula!

We have never failed to be impressed by the quality of the food in the Living Space but this evening we had the pleasure of being greeted by Mathilde the restaurant manager ; an absolute gift to the hospitality industry! Not only does she have a warm and engaging personality but also the peripheral vision required to be aware of what is happening in the environs of the restaurant at the same time as dealing with individual customers. Mathilde , we sincerely hope we have the privilege of meeting you on our next visit.

Despite visiting the garden centre on numerous occasions, I’d never visited the Potting Shed , what a find! The food was splendid ( the sausage and mash was probably the best I’ve ever tasted ) but the real assets for the restaurant are the staff , everyone of them was so genuinely friendly. The young man who helped me at the ice cream counter went out his way to help me with my friend’s dessert ( my friend has Alzheimer’s and can be quite specific in her likes and dislikes) . He went the extra mile and I’m only sorry I didn’t note his name but thank you , it made my friend’s day ! We will definitely be back !

Lovely lunch, great location, beautiful hotel surroundings. The spa was being enjoy by couples while we were relaxing with a couple of drinks and lunch. We chatted so much that we ordered cream tea, however the scones were extremely overbaked and we sent them back, else it would have been a 5* review.

Really friendly service and lovely, freshly made food. Also had coffee and hot chocolates and all were really nice. Gera place for a quick bite to eat.

We hired a beautiful field on the Cornish cliffs with the most spectacular views. So lucky to have found such a hidden gem for our perfect wedding venue. Absolutely wonderful owners and extremely helpful. Could not have had a better day! Thankyou so much for allowing us to use your stunning wedding field. It was one to remember! X

We were recommended the cafe day by day by our relatives who were staying at the caravan park but the day we got there to finally have the recommended super breakfast-there was only the owner there closing it up for the season! He offered us bacon butties initially but when he found out we had been planning for days to come for the sooo highly recommended full English breakfast-he put all his tidying aside and cooked us the most amasing breakfast we've had for the entire stay in Newquay- and served it with a smile! It is so rare these days to see a business owner with such genuine warmth and willingness to help. Thank you Mark-we had a fanomenal breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed the morning-thank you your kindness. Much appreciated!
