The best restaurants in Penzance Central Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

It was a dark and stormy night in Penzance. Luckily, intrepid diners that we are, we ventured out. What good luck should befall us! The Singing Rooster. Vegan pierogis and vegan bigosi. Outstanding! Tasty Polish beer, and house-baked desserts: a light chocolate cake with raisins infused with cherry vodka and a berry tart. Lovely atmosphere and decor and a delightful host. 5 starts.

Wonderful place, delicious food and a really warm and welcoming atmosphere!

Lovely coffee, great place to catch up! It's the first time coming here but can definitely recommend it, especially the chocolate!

Great coffee, sandwiches and cakes. Recommend brie and mango chutney roll, cheese and pesto toastie, victoria sponge cake and almond and raspberry cake. Probably only seats 8-10 people inside and 4 outside? Young staff friendly and welcoming despite being a busy Saturday.

I was at the Redwing Gallery (to attend a brilliant Portraiture class) when I ordered a meal from their cafe.... Quesadilla (tortilla with refried beans and vegan cheese). Absolutely delicious. Also, the coffee is perfect. They always try to meet your requirements when you ask. The Redwing Gallery is a great place, run by lovely people and is a wonderful asset for the people of Penzance and its visitors. I heartily recommend a visit.

Nos paramos para desayunar, ya que habíamos visto que el menú era interesante. Tuve el aguacate con un huevo escalfado en chili y tostadas de masa fermentada. No es una combinación que habría pensado, pero funcionó muy bien. La estufa de leña añadido al ambiente acogedor del lugar. Encantadora decoración moderna de estilo rústico. Volveremos

I have to say, I thought the food here was delicious. It was cooked well and the flavours worked so well. The staff were friendly and the service quick. If I lived here - I would eat here all the time !

We called ahead to book a table to guarantee seating, since it was a Sunday night and many places were closed. But there did not seem to be an issue seating people without bookings. This restaurant has a "tapas" menu, or small plate menu. It was suggested that we order two or three items per meal. I have an allergy to plant peppers & paprika, and I had difficulty finding two items that I thought I would enjoy. I chose the tomato/olive salad, but I had to specify NO green olives that are pimento stuffed, and the Blue Cheese Soufflé. Both were quite tasty. My husband ordered some type of seafood with capers. We both enjoyed our meals. He had a Spanish beer, which he said was terrific. I'm not a beer drinker, so I cannot offer an opinion on that. There were three young men running the restaurant, and they were all rather entertaining. I felt that I had to work extra hard to convince the young man of my allergy, and he even asked "how bad is it?" It was when I mentioned that I have an epipen that he seemed to finally grasp the situation. Most restaurants manage to take my allergy seriously without asking the severity. We were seated near the bar, which resulted in a cold draft every time someone came in and out of the door. Something worth considering if you are sensitive to temperatures. There was a large party coming in, so we chose to leave quickly as there really wasn't anything else tempting on the menu, and between the drafts and the noise, we felt it best to just get on our way. There was another room, a few steps up, near the front of the building, where many walk-ins were directed, but I have no idea what the ambiance was like since I never went to look.

Senara never fails to impress the young servers,front of house are friendly and welcoming the young chefs are outstanding,today myself and two friends enjoyed a lovely lunch two of us had beer battered cod the most beautiful white fish and crispy thin batter and one had Celeriac Risotto followed simply the best Sticky Toffee Pudding three very happy diners.

Well done, really amazing. Big love from Barcelona

A beautiful experience from start to finish. Bruce has created something very special with Shore.

Food in the cafe here is really fresh and delicious. The salads are really vibrant and varied. The shop is also full of really great quality health foods
