The best restaurants in Roseland Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Great Sunday Lunch Pork Yorkshire Pud and vegetables, pan cooked Hake and a magnificent orange cheesecake dessert in the cosy pub.

Returned again here on Saturday, food was great and the waiter was extremely helpful and chatty, my favourite restaurant in at.mawes. Highly recommend the megrim sole.

Lovely coffee shop. Probably the best in St mawes. Great pastries and cakes. Cannot fault the place or the staff. Will definitely go again thus holiday.

It has been some years since my last visit and the Quarterdeck has had a significant extension which I have to say is fabulous. I was not disappointed. The new entrance to the Quarterdeck did cause a few problems negotiating the cobbled paving with a wheelchair wasn't that easy but possible (certainly above my pay grade) but, with my dear friends son and daughter in Law it was negotiated. Having said that the staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Once in, there is a disabled toilet which comfortably accommodates both the wheelchair and helper (I say that because many aren't big enough). Movement around once inside is completely fine, we had a lovely table next to an open sliding window overlooking both the pool & garden and of course the beautiful sea vista. Then we ordered food: To start, one smoked salmon & crab cannelloni (no pasta involved just crab wrapped in smoked salmon), one french onion soup with croutons and 2 bread rolls, and one fishcake, all 3 of us thought fabulous. For main course courses: 2 of us had Lobster, one grilled one Thermador (requested), 1 moules frites, and 1 catch of the day (sole). Again, the cleaned plates and grins on everyone's faces showed how much it was enjoyed. Then one Eton mess (which I have been assured is how it should be done), one Dark chocolate Torte with raspberries & salted caramel ice cream - absolutely divine and one affogato. Yes, it was a bit of treat for a 91 year old lady who is wheelchair bound, (who alway lets me park up at hers when I go off sailing) accompanied by her Son and Daughter in Law. Criticisms : 1) the entrance path isn't very wheel chair friendly but manageable - and without being able to park virtually next to the door, as we did, it would have been very hard work getting a wheelchair down the steep slope from the car park (maybe that should be a disabled parking bay?) 2) I was a bit disappointed not to be given any bread with the drinks, but actually I am so grateful they didn't as I had room for 3 delicious courses (good marketing) I am just so naughty with freshly baked bread and then find I either don't have room for a delicious pudding or come away thinking I have eaten too much! I'm sure I'm not the only one?? I think my lesson to me is if you go somewhere special and really want to enjoy . . . kick the bread to start.

I took a guy on a date here and it was really really nice, I had the pithivier which was super tasty and my date had the funghi blanco pizza which was also very good. The staff were really great, polite and overall very pleasant people who looked smart and were attentive to our table. Recommend to anyone visiting st mawes. Try and get a in during the day for the sea views!

We booked a take away for 5-30 so we turned up bang on time thinking we might have to wait a bit but we didn’t as we walked in the final pizzas came out the oven . We ordered a marguerite for my daughter which she loved, pepperoni for my son which he loved ,I ordered a Nduja which I loved as well but I start of the show was my wife’s prosciutto and whole burrata stole the show and yes you guessed it she loved hers as well. We loved it so much we had to take the guys in the restaurant some very cold beers for after service that night which I hope they enjoyed and yes we went back again the other night and bang on as good again but I didn’t have any cash for beers this time sorry.

Friendly, great setting and decent pub food. We didn’t stray from pub classics and what we had was as good as you would expect. However the whole experience was marred by the smell of cooking fat that seemed to resonate through the place, to the extent I probably wouldn’t go back. Perhaps it was where we were sitting but we were not far from the bar in the central part.

We ate here two nights in a row the food was excellent, coupled with great service and very good value, l would certainly recommend a visit

We are locals, have been here a few times before and always had an excellent meal and service. This time however, it wasn’t great. Our waiter was doing her last shift before heading back to uni, and I don’t think she could really be bothered with us. Food was pricey and unexceptional. Felt like the chef had decided to move to the autumn menu - squash soup? Asparagus being offered well out of season. My Dover sole was ok, wife and daughter had John Dory, which was ok. Coffee was the teeniest tiniest espresso that I have ever seen. When you are dropping nearly 400 pounds on a meal, you expect it to be memorable, but on this occasion it wasn’t (or rather it was, but for the wrong reason). St mawes is lovely, but I’ll be giving Tresanton a swerve for the foreseeable.

Fabulous food ,varied menu with added specials Great friendly staff & landlady Good acceptable prices Great entertainment at weekends

Had takeaway chips today - what has happened??? Normally have takeaway chips from here when visiting St Mawes and they have always been lovely traditional fish and chips. Today the “chips” were chunky frozen wedges style potatoes . Knew it wasn’t going to be good from the smell when waiting - not the normal chip shop chips. Awful - won’t bother again. Have also previously eaten in the restaurant but would not again after this experience.
