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

Our meal was very disappointing and it not that cheap either. I don't mind paying for good and tasty looking food. But this I wouldn't even give this to my dog. So where do I start. Std fish and chips X3 and a extra std portion of chips ( with free oil ) that's right the chips were soft undercooked and full of cooking oil. The fish batter was very soggy and most of the batter stuck to the box lid, the fish was was not nice. I am not even sure we were served Cod. We also found a blonde hair. Not sure how they achieved the award winning title of best fish and chips if they serve disgusting food like I had.

So the hot drinks, served out of a machine, which is ok I guess, but only fill half the cup they server it in, which are tapered too, so you get about 3 mouthfuls if you are lucky, for £3.50! A comment was made that they weren't serving half measures, the cups are just big, no, the cups were perfectly normal, you are serving very small hot drinks and now, we'll never go back. What would it really cost to just fill the cups up? There was a button on the machine that indicated it could do a larger drink, use it, and your customers will be far happier. It's places like this that make it hard to support local independent businesses, £3.50 would have bought me a far larger drink at somewhere like Costa, hand crafted, and not out of a machine that's probably using instant powders. It's a real shame as the location is fantastic and the view is really good, it was quiet, and plenty of space. Didn't try any food, if they even did it, it was hard to tell as we saw little indication of menus etc. There is plenty of room to improve things, just hope they can.
