The best restaurants in Truro Moresk Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Absolutely outstanding fish and chips! Crispy yet fluffy chips cooked to perfection, beautiful fresh fish with the lightest batter. We also had pineapple fritters, which were the best we've ever tasted. We found Charlie's by chance after reading a blog recommendation as a last-minute dinner, we were so impressed we went back again on our holiday. Huge thank you to the staff for being so kind and friendly. You are really great ambassadors for Truro and your business.

Love the ethos of the place. "The staff and volunteers are being trained in invaluable skills and hospitality experience to help them improve their career prospects. Guests are welcomed to make our house their home for the day, sample the menu and meet the wonderful people who are giving back to the community!" The environment is warm and inviting and the staff are super friendly. Prices are very reasonable. I'd gone there, as part of time put aside specifically to sit and reflect on the memory of someone. I wanted somewhere relaxed and unhurried, where I wasn't made to feel I'd overstayed my welcome. It was certainly better than many places in that regard. It transpired that they run their own radio station which was transmitted into the cafe. Great idea for those involved in creating and running that. However, the music wasn't to my taste and was rather loud, so I was unable to relax. Of course some visitors will actively enjoy this aspect. I wanted to point it out because it may possibly affect people's ability to enjoy the place fully, as a cafe and meeting place. I would have struggled to have a tranquil conversation with someone over coffee. It would be a great place for small groups to have informal meetings but again I think the level of the radio transmission would be unhelpful in that situation. It may be that the radio station isn't transmitting all day, every day. I can only review my own experience there. The place was quite "buzzy" enough to create a warm atmosphere Some very quiet, non abrasive background music would have been perfectly acceptable to me, I just found this to be too invasive. It may be that the benefits to the volunteers in operating the radio station, far outweigh the benefits of maybe getting more customers into the cafe ... and I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm sure the project is all about balance and I wish them every success. If you don't mind loud, fashionable music, then it could be a great little hideaway for you.

Food was excellent, as were the owners! 10 Out of 10! will definitely be back

Wow, what an amazing meal we had last night. We booked for the tasting menu and the service and food were all excellent. The price is one of the best value for money tasting menus we have seen too. The atmosphere was really relaxed with explanation of the dishes and a great selection of drinks available. We will definitely look to come back again when in the area.

One of the nicest pubs I‘ve ever been. Great tasting food, decent wines, and a lively and lively atmoesphere in a historic building.

We went as a couple; Tuesday evening. The food was very ordinary; but the service was good. The king prawn dish I had, appeared to be made with frozen prawns and the spicing was not right. Unfortunately, a miss for me; but lovely people running the place.

Everything thing was a positive for us! Great atmosphere, friendly staff, great service, fabulous food and reasonably priced, 100% be back! Tnx to all the staff for a great experience

Beautiful Hotel, great location the staff are excellent 👌 Tasty food relaxed atmosphere.

I have eaten here many times before and brought my family as a special post-Christmas meal. We were beyond disappointed. We waited for ages at the bar the staff saw us arrive but didn't come over until I went to ask. The restaurant was very quiet but most tables had dirty glasses on them, including the bar, staff all made us feel like they didn't want to be there. 3 of the party's drinks came I had to wait a further 10 minutes for my drink having to ask two staff members before it arrived. We ordered scallops to start & catch of the day. Once the order went in They then told us no scallops and the starters we chose were all very disappointing. The service was terrible with the waiter going outside to vape when he could. We weren't offered drinks until we asked and they kept asking if they could clear our glasses making is feel like they all just wanted us out so they could go home. The food was well below average and expensive, service was terrible. Sadly nothing like the meals we've had in the past here and i felt embarrassed at how poor everything was!

Delivery never turned up, 2 hours and 2 phone calls later I got told someone knocked on my door and we didn’t answer. I have a ring doorbell and sat waiting for the delivery so that was rubbish. Had no phone call to even let me know what had happened! Avoid!

Flipping outstanding really nice local pub with grub and nice staff and friendly. Definitely recommend

Saw this place on social media and was very excited to try. I have to say the cakes are nothing like you see online and in person they’re very disappointing.

Had few drinks here whilst staying in Truro for weekend. Everyone was really friendly, staff nice & there is a gorgeous pub dog to welcome you.

We had our work Christmas party here for the third year. It was again a fantastic evening. The food was delicious and the service was brilliant. Special mention to Clare who was very welcoming. We will be back next year thank you!

Last visited this establishment in May, and yet again was not disappointed. Good food, good staff no complaints looking forward to my next visit.
