The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Padstow Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

We have visited The Venue countless times and it really is a “home from home” for us. The owners and staff couldn’t be more welcoming, they want you to enjoy your time here. We’ve only ever received the best customer service be it in the peak of Summer or depths of Winter. They serve really good pub grub at fair prices (a rarity round here). We’ve eaten here so many times and would especially recommend the fish and chips and the Sunday carvery. We’ve had numerous Sunday roasts around the area, but always book the Venue now, as it really can’t be beaten for quality and cost. There is regular entertainment on, but if that’s not your thing you’ll always get a warm welcome from Sam upstairs in the Sports Bar. Check out the Facebook page which is regularly updated with what’s going on as well as available offers on food/drink. I rarely write reviews, but this place really does deserve a good one!

Nice quiet static caravan park.

St Petroc Where to start? We arrived on time and the table wasn’t ready…fair enough. Things started badly as the next table were clearly unhappy as they had asked for a dessert wine menu some time before and it had not arrived. When it did the member of staff failed to open the bottle, not once but twice. We were given a menu, wine list and drinks menu. Around 15 minutes later a member of staff came to take our order and we attempted to order cocktails. However, the overly confident and inept staff member decided we had to order our food at the same time, not ideal. We also ordered a bottle of wine. This was borne out by our starter arriving with no cocktail or wine, totally unacceptable, and we complained. The manager arrived with our cocktails, explaining that they were out of an ingredient for one of the cocktails and had to send out to another restaurant. Maybe telling us that would have been good? When we finished our cocktails we poured our own wine as no member or staff was in attendance. The starter was good but we noticed we both had redundant side plates; should we have been served bread? We were told they were there in case we ordered a dish with bread, which sounds rather odd. Shortly before the main course arrived we were given half our cutlery, our forks arriving after. When ordering my fish I noted that no potatoes were mentioned so asked if I should order some and was told I should. I was therefore surprised that it did. We sat with dirty plates for around 20 minutes as tables were set around us and, when they were finally cleared we were asked if all was OK. On saying that service was non existent the member of staff was extremely sarcastic and also spilt food on the floor and made no attempt to clean it up…totally shocking. We spoke with the manager, who was quite accusatory saying this staff member claimed I swore, which was totally untrue and I presume him covering himself. I explained the whole experience was far from fine dining but was corrected, saying it was “relaxed dining” and the other restaurant was fine dining, implying we should have gone there if we actually wanted good service. She said they were short-staffed and the staff member in question usually worked in the cafe and knew “some of the menu”. Goodness knows how they will cope with the season? As we left another couple were being apologised to for the “mix up on food and drink” and I now see reviews are going downhill. I last visited St Petroc’s over ten years ago and remember it fondly, although a visit a few years ago to the restaurant in Falmouth was far from good, and a number of places, such as Porthleven, had closed, maybe a sign of the direction they are taking. There is only so far you can go with a name, as Jamie Oliver found out, you do have to deliver, and this place really isn’t. We are on a tour of the UK coast be motorhome and have spent the past month dining out. This is by far the worst experience we have had.

Nice location but food from 1-10 I will give 5 stars … for two people we spent over £120 with wine

The music jam is great. Barman is sound.

Lovely breakfast, staff very friendly and the service was good

Had planned a visit on Sunday 9th March checked the website to see the venue was open, yet when we arrived the lights were off and the doors were locked. Whilst we understand that venues do change their opening times out of season, It would be good if they could update their website accordingly.

Stopped in for a drink was pleasant pub

We stopped in for a light lunch and it was delicious! Excellent service , fresh tasty food, delicious cocktails and all served up in a cosy space.

Had a takeaway and have to say really very impressed. Well cooked, crispy bottom, fresh flavours. Better than some well known pizza chains, Suspect there may be another one this week! Very good for vegetarians. Friendly staff and felt clean and safe, thank you.

Been to Padstow so many times as don't live to far. Never ate here until today. We were impressed. Non fussy restaurant, clean and welcoming. Portions were massive and chips nice and crispy. The chips (fries, thin ones) with the child's meal looked not cooked, very pale, could have done with a bit longer. But otherwise really pleased. Will definitely eat there again. Very busy Cafe. People coming in all the time. Thankyou
