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

Whilst visiting family, we opted for a fish & chip supper at Francines. Previously walking past, the aroma was enticing and smelt delicious. We were a group of 5 and being fairly hungry after a long walk earlier in the day, opted for cod & chips & a pineapple fritter. My daughter & myself chose the large size. The portions were more than ample & we could have shared 2 portions between us all, if we hadn't been piggies. Friendly staff with a prompt service, we look forward to visiting again. You can also place your order online or by phone, to collect at a time to suit.

Amazing staff that makes you feel at home so polite and helpful, food is perfect and well plated professional Well recommended to all, there cheese cake is to die for 5 star service

During COVID lockdown I do yearn for something yummy. Thank Heavens Tom's is still open! This week I popped in for my usual Organic Sour Dough Bread, and Organic Malt Loaf, and decided to indulge in a Saffron Bun (whilst on the move). It was sooo delicious, moist, and perfect! I also managed to hide it from the ever marauding seagulls of St Austell - BEWARE!!! low flying thefts of anything eaten outside

Fantastic! Friendly staff, delicious food (can look small but is yummy and filling!) and a calm, welcoming atmosphere, all for a very affordable price. I would recommend reserving in advance though, as I was turned away when I didn't reserve because of how busy they were. Would highly recommend.

Best chicken I’ve ever eaten, by far. Staff are excellent and nothing is too much for them. I used to come here just for the food but after learning that MJXCC hosts a night for trans+ people has really sealed the deal for me. Will definitely be doing more to support the business. Thanks for excellent food and service 😇

Great pub, amazing food and brilliant service. Thoroughly recommend the trio of sausages with lovely creamy mash. My husband loved his surf & turf burger and the chips were superb! We had a brilliant evening, really enjoyed the karaoke. Very friendly bar team they made us very welcome. Employee of the month should definitely be awarded to Kieran, especially as he doesn't even work there but had us in fits of laughter and entertained us whilst he served our food and drinks. I was very impressed with the basket of sanitary items in the ladies toilet for use should they be needed, very thoughtful & a wonderful idea.

A truly great restaurant, you won't be disappointed. Decided to have dinner here during a recent trip to Cornwall. Was pleasantly surprised and surpassed my expectations. Staff were friendly, kind & attentive - adding to the overall experience. A menu of unique dishes that are exciting & really work, capturing a variety of flavours. For a regular lover of Indian cuisine, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. A perfect end to a wonderful evening. Johann

In a town that is pretty runs down, this place is a little diamond in the rough. The service was fantastic (small request to change a meal which was dealt with really well). Staff great and friendly with our kids. Food was excellent and the portions very generous. Would highly recommend this place to eat.

One of the best Chinese takeaways I have come across, and I have used a lot on my travels. The batter on the sweet & sour king prawns was simply fantastic. Highly recommended. If I lived down here I’d be a regular. Give it a go, you won’t be disappointed.

Last time the large fish, chips and curry sauce very good. Today what a difference. Large fish was not worth £8.50, skinny( more like a flat fish) and nearly broke my tooth on the chips so hard on the outside. Disappointed.

If you need to visit St Austell then you could do worse than stay here. There is a small free secured carpark to the rear. The hotel is old so no lifts, multiple floors not always on the same level, stairways are narrow as well. Reception is not 24 / 7, so if arriving late or leaving early you need to make arrangements. The bar and restaurant is well served. The breakfast was nice, the hotel allows walkins for lunch and dinner and it is popular, given the limited options locally it is not surprising. The room was adequate but small, good size bathroom, with shower over the bath. Would I stay there again yes.

Absolutely amazing food! Great staff and very reasonably priced. My father goes in weekly and the food is always top quality and on another level! Highly recommended

Fantastic food! So sad that we were just visiting the area and that this isn’t my local place. Naans were perfect. All the dishes we ordered were delicious and spiced to perfection. The staff I spoke to were so friendly too. I would definitely recommend this place.

Great food at a decent price. Really good value for money.
