The Shore Restaurant
13-14 Alverton St, PenzanceWe visited The Shore to celebrate our first wedding anniversary in August and Bruce did not disappoint. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed and the service provided by Bruce was faultless.
The food was amazing, some of the best fish we've ever eaten and each dish came with an explanation of where it came from and how it was cooked. I'm not a fan of shellfish but the smoked fish custard with mussels was my favourite of the night, as well as the rosemary posset.
If you enjoy good food I would thoroughly recommend booking, it was 100% worth it.

45 Queen Street
45 Queen St, PenzanceTried oysters for the first time here and I am glad I did! It was a fantastic experience.
We got the half dozen, which offers two of each variety of their oysters (great for a couple) and saves £4 compared to ordering them individually. Purists will probably laugh at me but you MUST try the baked oyster in spicy tartare sauce. Absolute banger!
They have two happy hours where the drinks are £5 each but do take a proper look at the menu for a better idea of what’s on offer.
The service is friendly and welcoming and it seems the staff are very familiar with the locals, so if you’re a tourist you might find they half expect you to know how everything works. They’re not eager to seat you or let you know you should order at the bar.
Love how dog friendly this place is!

Admiral Benbow
46 Chapel St, PenzanceAre you looking at reviews to see if its worth coming to this pub? Read on if you want or just stop wasting time and biok right now.
We stopped here without a reservation on the night before NYE, figuring it won't be that busy. They were fully booked, but were so accommodating to us, straight away got us a table for 2 and said we had a 90min slot which really is plenty of time for a meal.
The beers were spot on ?. We had a pint of Rattlers and an amber ale from their own brewery (on a par with Doom Bar).
We ordered Fish n Chips, which was locally caught haddock and was served with some kind of homemade secret recipe garlic tartare sauce which is just genius and a fish pie which totally satisfied the taste buds yearning for that mix.
The price was great and the old pub has kept its looks and secret corners up, making it a nice intimate place to eat and drink instead of the dinner hall feel of some other places.
I've marked it on here as a place to return to next time we're back at that end of Cornwall.

Artist Residence Clubhouse
20 Chapel St, PenzanceHad the most amazing meal there for my husbands birthday. From start to finish it was a lovely experience. The atmosphere is relaxing, the decor is just the right side of eclectic, and the staff are very friendly and attentive without hovering. They understand the menu and could recommend accordingly. The food was delicious. For starters we had the Cornish crab nachos - which sounded like an odd combination but we fancied trying it - which were surprisingly tasty, worked really well together, and very generous. We also had the smoked ribs which had a strong smoked flavour and quite a piquant sauce, they were extremely tasty. For mains we had the duck - it fell off the bone and was mouthwatering - and the special of sea bass - which was cooked to perfection with a super crisp skin but moist and juicy flesh. Even the chips were spectacular- possible the crispiest chips we’ve ever eaten. We didn’t have room for desert, but the ones we saw being brought out looked delightful. We passed our compliments on to the chef (who I believe was called Gareth) and had a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Highly recommend people trying it.

The Boatshed
The Harbour, Wharf Rd, PenzanceI ate at the Boatshed twice during my stay, on the first evening I had the meat free burger but booked to go back on my final evening as I wanted to try the quinoa burger - my experience was equally great on both occasions and I'd definitely put the Boatshed on my list of places to eat again next time I'm in Penzance.\n\nI would say the quinoa burger was among the best vegetarian burgers I've ever had - as an idea they can be very variable depending on the chef and these were first rate, with a wide variety of pieces of vegetable mixed in (I'm pretty sure I spoted beetroot, yellow pepper and small broad beans in mine). Served with great chips, and peas which were done to exactly the right degree.\n\nThe service was great, on both occasions - exactly the right balance between being on top of spotting when a diner needed something and letting alone.

I love everything about Lovetts, it’s such an asset to the community & I always know I’m going to have a delicious experience. The toasties are obscene in the best possible way. The warm banana bread is a go-to. And I’ve even been impressed with the matcha which has been very hard to find in Cornwall. But it’s truly the coffee that has my heart. I love the buzzing energy & 99.9% of the time I bump into someone I know, so it’s always a social stop. Thanks everyone at Lovetts xx

The food itself was pretty good however we felt the hogs pudding lacked flavour compared to what we have previously had elsewhere. Also at £15 for the regular breakfasts and the cost of a few individual items for a child we felt that it wasn't quite as good value for money as other places we have visited due to the size and quantity of breakfast items included. Service was excellent and the staff we met were incredibly friendly and helpful.

8 Market Jew St, PenzanceAbsolutely outstanding pasties.
We are a family of pasty connosours ? For over 35 years we have been visiting Cornwall, staying in Hayle and therefore we are big fans of the famous Philps Bakery.
Today we visited Mounts Bay Pasty Company in Penzance.
We were welcomed by two really friendly ladies, one who had not long returned from maternity leave (sorry didn't catch your name)
We purchased two standards, a steak and stilton, a lamb and mint and a sausage roll. These came with free doughnuts and cookies!
I have to say, these are outstanding and I have to say, they even beat Philps! The pasty was so tasty and buttery but not too flaky. Really fairly priced and so delicious I don't know which I liked the best.
We will almost certainly be back!

4 Riverside, Longrock, PenzanceWhile visiting Cornwall recently we looked for somewhere to enjoy a Sunday Lunch . After doing a bit of research we found the Mexico Inn . We booked for a Sunday lunch the first weekend we were on holiday, we found on arrival that there is very limited on street parking so headed for the nearby Longrock car park. The parking charges are very reasonable and it is only a five minute walk back to the Inn. After browsing the menu we all opted for the beef brisket Sunday lunch although there were many tempting alternatives on the menu and specials board . The roast was a generous portion was really delicious. We just about had space for pudding but couldn’t decide on what to pick , solution, The Mexico Inn do a sharing board with all their puddings to share ! These were as excellent as the main course . We would highly recommend coming here for lunch but best book as it gets very busy . We enjoyed it so much we came back the second Sunday of our holiday for the same again !

The Cornish Oven - Penzance
Jelbert Way, PenzanceJust bought and ate 5 pasties. 2 Flaky pastry steak, 2 Cheese and vegetable, and one short crust steak. General opinions in the family are that this is top tier delicious as good as anything you'll have anywhere pasties.
The flaky pastry was crisp and delicious, a stand out alteration to the regular short crust. But the filling was also top notch. The steak was delicious and generous, less peppery than many other pasties but in no way disappointing. For me, maybe my favourite Cornish pasty ever. The cheese pasties basically just substitute cheese for steak and I stole a taste and they were really good.
If you're in this part of the world, make the detour to this stonking good pasty shop.
There are cakes and sausage rolls and drinks available too, but this is just a straight up pasty review. 10/10, 5/5, 100/100.

Mousehole Deli & Kitchen
N Cliff, Mousehole, PenzanceVisited for brunch as a group of 4 adults and a 3yo. We all had either small or regular Cornish breakfasts and a few breakfast items for our daughter. The food itself was pretty good however we felt the hogs pudding lacked flavour compared to what we have previously had elsewhere. Also at £15 for the regular breakfasts and the cost of a few individual items for a child we felt that it wasn't quite as good value for money as other places we have visited due to the size and quantity of breakfast items included. Service was excellent and the staff we met were incredibly friendly and helpful.

S. Jelbert's
9 New Rd, Newlyn, PenzanceJelbert's has been selling vanilla ice cream for years and years, and long may it continue. There are no fancy flavours here, no coffee or exotic pastries. Just (probably) the best vanilla ice cream in Penzance/Cornwall/The UK/Europe/The World (delete as appropriate).

Mounts Bay Pasty Company
8 Market Jew St, PenzanceAbsolutely outstanding pasties.
We are a family of pasty connosours ? For over 35 years we have been visiting Cornwall, staying in Hayle and therefore we are big fans of the famous Philps Bakery.
Today we visited Mounts Bay Pasty Company in Penzance.
We were welcomed by two really friendly ladies, one who had not long returned from maternity leave (sorry didn't catch your name)
We purchased two standards, a steak and stilton, a lamb and mint and a sausage roll. These came with free doughnuts and cookies!
I have to say, these are outstanding and I have to say, they even beat Philps! The pasty was so tasty and buttery but not too flaky. Really fairly priced and so delicious I don't know which I liked the best.
We will almost certainly be back!

Smugglers Den
10 Causewayhead, PenzanceThis is our second visit and the staff are really very friendly,the food is no nonsense and generous portions served.The coffee is good. Not a great problem but it would be nice to see the staff in a t shirt or something in keeping with the theme I think they have taken casual dress a bit far . Great to see dogs were welcome. We will most definitely return

Paul, PenzanceWe camped close by as part of a cycling tour and booked here for dinner. Team was super friendly, and they clearly had a lot of bookings but communicated when we could order and the food came very fast. Great varied menu with plenty of veggie options, snd local ingredients. The mussels starter and bake main were both delicious - thanks for a lovely evening :)

45 Queen Street
45 Queen St, PenzanceTried oysters for the first time here and I am glad I did! It was a fantastic experience.
We got the half dozen, which offers two of each variety of their oysters (great for a couple) and saves £4 compared to ordering them individually. Purists will probably laugh at me but you MUST try the baked oyster in spicy tartare sauce. Absolute banger!
They have two happy hours where the drinks are £5 each but do take a proper look at the menu for a better idea of what’s on offer.
The service is friendly and welcoming and it seems the staff are very familiar with the locals, so if you’re a tourist you might find they half expect you to know how everything works. They’re not eager to seat you or let you know you should order at the bar.
Love how dog friendly this place is!

The Mexico Inn
4 Riverside, Longrock, PenzanceWhile visiting Cornwall recently we looked for somewhere to enjoy a Sunday Lunch . After doing a bit of research we found the Mexico Inn . We booked for a Sunday lunch the first weekend we were on holiday, we found on arrival that there is very limited on street parking so headed for the nearby Longrock car park. The parking charges are very reasonable and it is only a five minute walk back to the Inn. After browsing the menu we all opted for the beef brisket Sunday lunch although there were many tempting alternatives on the menu and specials board . The roast was a generous portion was really delicious. We just about had space for pudding but couldn’t decide on what to pick , solution, The Mexico Inn do a sharing board with all their puddings to share ! These were as excellent as the main course . We would highly recommend coming here for lunch but best book as it gets very busy . We enjoyed it so much we came back the second Sunday of our holiday for the same again !

Artist Residence Penzance
20 Chapel St, PenzanceQuirky rooms and hotel, lovely food and drink options and opportunities. Brilliant location. But be warned if you sleep light not in any fault of the hotel the road outside can be noisy after hours from local pubs and general goings on. If I get a chance to return would maybe look for room away from room or higher in building.
But other than that brilliant place. ??

Relubbus Ln, PenzanceLovely in every way: people, atmosphere, and food all receive high marks. The Mediterranean veggie tart was crisp and gooey like they all dream of growing up to be. My friends and I shared the pear - grown locally - crumble dessert: they were poached to perfection. Bonus: fab music selection this evening with the 80s playlist. Thank you for a cozy and relaxing experience!
