Excellent food from a varied menu. Nice and busy, with outstanding service, especially sir and madam instead of you

Had a Carvery here on Sunday and have to say it was one of the best I had in a long time. The welcome and service were good and it had a nice atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back to try the alacart menu. If I have a slight criticism, the tables are I bit too close to each other, but this won't stop me trying here again after so many years away.

As soon as you walk in, it’s a warm welcome from all the staff. The atmosphere is second to none. They have a wide selection of beers/spirits and the food is incredible. Dog friendly too which is a bonus. Highly recommend.

The food was amazing and the staff were Very friendly and attentive but not too overbearing. We had a fabulous lunch. Compliments all round.Parking: There was good parking space and plenty of room for my friend and I to get in and out the car. We are both disabled and need room for the car doors to open all the way. The entrance and space is nice and flat so able to manoeuvre around.

3 of us went for lunch and the food was lovely. I had the pork belly which was a proper treat, really tender and tasty.. Beautiful pub with friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Looks like it has a nice beer garden out the back so looking forward to returning when the weather warms up.

Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options, but not many. There were none on the specials board. However, I highly recommend the spicy bean burger.

The restaurant was busy with a large group which turned out to be bad news as the service was slow. The menu is a generic pub grub menu with little fresh or original food offered. Worryingly, the burger ordered arrived cold and raw inside having probably cooked from frozen. We sent it back to the kitchen and it was returned in a better, cooked state but without much of an apology. There are better places out there to eat, avoid this one.

Went today for a family lunch, the carvery was superb, unfortunately they was out of Lamb and Beef so ended up having pork, it was delicious, service was good and we all enjoyed it, a special mention to Chris, who I believe is new to The Turnpike, he was fantastic, and made our lunch even more special, thank you Chris and thank you Turnpike 5 star.
Had Christmas lunch here with my family. First time we've ever eaten out Christmas Day and they made it a wonderful experience. Well worth the money with a drink on arrival, a starter, our main course, a pre dessert then our main dessert followed by a hot drink and mince pies. All the staff were lovely and waited on everyones needs. The food was fantastic. Best Turkey I've probably ever had. The table was laid out lovely as well. I've been before and the food was always great. Thank you for making our day feel like a family day at home

I run a dog rescue group here in Cornwall and today we had a meet up with adopters and their rescue dogs. Phil and Brigette and the barman Jamie went above and beyond to make our visit extra special. Nothing was too much trouble and they even came and petted the dogs. Wonderful people and great food and most important to me great animal lovers.

AVOID!! Horrible food, overcooked vegetables and raw meat. Over priced and the landlady is so rude and the staff were miserable! Will never go there again.

Just returned from a totally delicious Sunday lunch carvery. The pub is improved on what is was before, and the service was superb, friendly and attentive. The carvery was fabulous, lamb that melted in your mouth, and beef slightly pink and oh so tender. Good selection of vegetables and a really delicious gravy. £16 for one course, slightly steep in our carvery experience but the whole visit justified the higher price in the end. I hope it does really well, it deserves to.

I attended with family following a tour of the Christmas lights. We wanted to arrive 30 minutes after the kitchen closed which the pub were happy to accomodate. Staff were very friendly and the food extrememly tasty. Portions were a more than adequate size. We were all very impressed. Fantastic pub grub. We will be back.
Excellent buffet ,especially the Cornish pasties.
