The best restaurants in Penryn East and Mylor Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Some friends and my husband and myself were staying locally and we went to the Cornish Maid for breakfast. The food was lush and the lady the runs the cafe was friendly, bubbly and very funny. We felt welcomed. Thank you 😊

Bought the family to the lovely Beanys cafe - I had the gutbuster breakfast it was awesome. Kids were well fed with a good choice - great value for money.

We enjoyed a Sunday roast here. The meat was tender and there is a good array of vegetables. The gravy was a bit thin and the cauliflower cheese was a bit dry but overall it was good. What we particularly liked was that we were able to stay for nearly three hours at a very comfortable table where we felt very able to relax. The valentines pudding and cocktails added to a good meal. We don't usually stay this long but it's a big venue and it was only in the late afternoon that it started to get very busy. Service was friendly and efficient. One funny thing was the table water which tasted and smelt very strongly of chlorine. I don't recall coming across this anywhere else. My partner is a lot more fussy about water than I am and asks if you could filter it. It would be nice to put lemon in it too. Prices are pretty much average. I would definitely recommend the place. It's very family friendly

After visiting a year ago we eagerly returned. Unfortunately they did not have us booked in despite our email and their phone call 2 weeks ago to confirm. To be fair they responded positively. The wait for service was long .During our wait a large group of 15 people arrived to be seated next to us. They stood up chatting loudly with their backs withing inches of us .No consideration to us eating when our meal came.They were stood waiting for rest of party to arrive. At no time were they asked to sit down in restaurant. We could not hold a conversation our selves as they were so loud. Meal was about 50 mins until served and drinks forgotten. Total bill was 170 pounds ,food was spoilt by ambience in restaurant with noise and bumping into us. When paying for meal I said food was OK but experience was spoilt by noise and no control in restaurant. I was greeted by "Thats out of our control".Not an apology. The 4 of us won't return.

Nice staff, good beer and plenty of space inside and out.

Excellent, best pub in town! Beer, food and service superb. Ate here twice in a few days, we would all definitely all return.

I visited The New Inn last night in a group of 8 friends for our Christmas meal night out. The pub was toasty warm with a log burner going near our table, just what we needed on a wild stormy night! We had the three course Christmas menu and the food was delicious, and there was plenty of it! I had the lamb main course and there was loads of meat, and none of it fatty. My starter was spicy parsnip soup with bacon, also delicious, and for dessert I had the biggest slice of cheesecake I've ever seen! We were also given a palette cleansing sorbet in between the starter and main which was a lovely surprise. Would definitely recommend!

This cafe should change it name to the first and last . It was first time going and it be the last time we be going .it was that bad . The service was slow the lady taking orders was more entrusted to talk on her phone or smoking .didn't have a morning just a grunt . Took us 15 min to take are order . The best thing was the sun was warm .chips dry and bought in cheap beefburgs. Tomato sauce was cheap pink stuff .

I have been here quite a few times since my first visit in 2022, and it's not disappointed me yet. The staff are friendly and efficient, and the meals are plentiful, no small portions here! This is the 2nd year we pre-booked for a Christmas dinner and it was lush, everything was perfectly cooked and tasty but we couldn't finish it all so we were offered boxes to take some home (turkey sandwiches for tea!) We'll be back next Christmas and several times in between.....

Had a standard cappuccino here and it would've cost me less to get a taxi to Lidl and make it myself. Probably would've tasted better too.

Called in for lunch after walking from Mylor to Flushing. Lovely food, great service and friendly staff. When we’re back in Cornwall we’ll definitely visit again.

Good local pub with a good quiz on Wednesdays. The pub has a very unique door which is shaped like a barrel.

We picked up a cheeky little cake from here whilst in Penryn. There was lots of selection and the cakes were delicious mmm

What can I say? This place is awesome! We go to Cornwall 1 week a year and we are treated like old friends. Great Landlady. Fun happy and friendly staff. Hillarious pub quiz. Welcoming locals. Reasonably priced drinks. And a juke box that has the Fraggle Rock theme tune on it (the Lighthouse from Fraggle rock isnt that far way away). Good atmosphere too. Would 100% recommend
