Wanted somewhere special for my birthday a couple of week's ago. We booked for Sunday lunch and we booked well in advance and asked for a good harbour view table. Was a bit disappointed to arrive and find the table at the back of the dining room directly in front of the wood burner (was a tad hot). That being said, the roast lunch was exceptional - we would go as far to say probably the best roast we've ever had. Restaurant is looking a little shabby around the edges (when I pulled my chair out to be seated there were crumbs/debris on the chair), a table leg being held level by a serviette and generally could do with a tidy (downstairs loo a bit shabby and the door handle is broken). I suspect after a busy summer season they will shut for maintenance. We would recommend and would return - just needs some slight improvements. Food cannot be faulted and staff were lovely.

My husband has followed Dan Dan the Lobster Man on Facebook and we visited Porthleven purely to eat here. Sadly we were disappointed. The food was expensive and the crab sandwich was bland. We waited about 45 minutes for a bland crab sandwich and a pot of cockles. The cockles were tasty. Other people sitting near us had a sharing platter which looked good. Go and try it and make your own mind up.
