The best restaurants in St Austell Bay Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

A day on the beach followed by chowder and chips. Fantastic food. Will definitely call again when back in Cornwall

When you pay by card their machine asks you how big a tip you would like to give 10% 20% 50% etc. I sometimes feel like just handing my bank details over! I think this payment machine annoys a lot of folk.....how big a tip should you give for two coffees a chocolate brownie and 2 seconds of conversation?

Great place for a coffee and some cake. Also serves alcohol and meals. Nice atmosphere, with tables and lounging sofas. Staff very helpful, live sports shown. Has outdoor seating, some of which is undercover.

Great spot for a lovely lunch, friendly staff and fantastic location! The Boathouse burger is genuinely amazing, could be the best burger I’ve ever had!

Really nice and friendly shop. Well presented and the cakes were Epic!! I drink a lot of coffee and in London am spoilt but I will be back in here when I’m next in Cornwall. #livingthedream

We really enjoyed our visit and meal at the Pier House, Although the menu is not extensive, the food was excellent. Personally I would like the option of vegetables as a side. (We were amazed that each table had a tall lit candle, they seemed precarious and you could see the dried flower decoration had been singed already. Just thinking, after the previous fire here) Service was very good.

What a lush anniversary dinner we had mid October - it was mid week, and all the diners on one side of the restaurant. This worked really well. Really decent vibe - the waitress was just lovely, and even wished us a happy anniversary when we arrived. Really had a lovely meal - probably the best we’ve had at the longstore. Can’t describe why it was - but everything was just perfect with the food, service and made for a fantastic last minute anniversary dinner. That and the bottle of Malbec which was mighty fine.

Me and the Mr popped in for a post sea-swim breakfast and ssooo glad we did. Staff were welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. Food was good quality, very tasty, and well presented. My tea came in a non-leaky pot, and was hot and fresh. Bacon was crispy, eggs were a rich yellow colour, and well seasoned. Carrot cake was moist and the frosting was lush! Will definitely be back. Thanks, you've pitched it just right! 👌🏼😍😋

Fantastic staff and an amazing roast dinner. Lovely waitress took some pictures for us before we headed back into the storm!

Recommend this delightful place. An asset to Charlestown. Wonderful icecreams, beverages, cakes and food. Helpful friendly staff. Local business who create a great vibe. Whether it is Halloween or Christmas etc.

Have had a couple of Sunday lunches at the Bay View and I have to say both have been really good, a three course dinner, very good food with excellent service throughout, thanks to Brett for great service, a clear favourite with the regulars. I would recommend and will be back.

Their Cornish pasties were made the traditional way and NOT full of minced gristle like ginsters but with chunks of tender stake and fresh veg with a lovely flaky pastry. Such a shame it's not in existence anymore .

couldn't say, closed everytime i have visited- i have wanted to try this place as i watched it being built -I hope if I keep trying i will get the chance one day

Went on the basis of other reviews and was not at all disappointed. The mackerel baps were brilliant as were the fried potatoes. Perfectly cooked, well seasoned and all from friendly staff. 10/10

Visited here twice as it was a little gold mine to escape the rain. The breakfast and cake I had was fresh, hot and very tasty service was quick and very reasonably priced for the quality. The caramel doughnut I had was so soft and filled with fresh cream. Best cream cake I’ve had in years. Will return next time I’m in the area.
