The decor is amazing and creates an amazing historical atmosphereThe food was good but I ordered the scampi which was nice but after I got them I realised I probably should have ordered the chicken.I ordered the buzzy bee desert which was incredible.Not as nice as the other meaderies but still great. Would recommend.

Go regularly but have never waited so long for service. Usually very quick but not that night.

The only reason I am giving a 3 for the food is the price has gone up by a considerable amount, for instance the prawn cocktail used to come with a warm wholemeal bread roll and butter, not anymore! and there's more lettuce than prawns! The wine is quite expensive ie £5.60 for 1 glass, when considering you canget it cheaper at the supermarket £11.00 for a 75 cl bottle.I'm not complaining about the taste of the food it's great.If you want the atmosphere don't sit on tables 36 or 37 as you are put on the level between the waiting area and the main dining room, feeling like an unwanted guest at a wedding reception.If in the main dining room it's great.I would suggest removing the tables on this level as the meadery has always been about the experience , at least since I've been going there from the 1970s.Do us a favour and get back the values you used to have.On the last note the service is always good.

Food was lovely However they forgot 2 of our meals 2 scampi apologised then charged us for 3 and refused to give a refund. Saying someone had eaten 2 meals. Had they actually done a table check they would have clearly seen that no one had 2 meals. And the server would have known if she had given someone 2 would she not? Absolutely no problem with forgetting meals mistakes happen but trying to say we lied about how many meals we had is just not on. Will definitely be going to a different meadery in future. Very disappointed as we love Newlyn.
Quite a disappointing visit to be honest. The food was nothing special to warrant the price, portion sizes were pretty standard but the service was okay. I felt like the theme was a bit gimmicky given the latest top 40 pop hits were blasting through the speakers instead of 'ye olde strings' or similar...We arrived (a party of 6) with some elderly folks who struggled to read the menu with the dim lighting and only a single flickering battery operated candle to aid.Even though there were so many available tables, some of which were much bigger with a lot more space, we found ourselves cramped together around our assigned seats (two small tables pushed together) that would have better suited a smaller party.Also worth mentioning, we noticed that another party of people followed us in, but were for some reason asked to wait in the bar area downstairs. Given the amount of available places they could have easily occupied upstairs, I'm left to presume it was to sell them 'pre drinks', which is a little saddening, although they could have been waiting for more people to arriveThe salad bar was quite a nice touch, with lots to choose from, I can't help but feel this should be a refillable option though as extra helping of salad were chargeable.I personally ordered the ribs and left hungry, but the chicken in the rough option looked quite filling and tasty.

We booked a table because we had a couple of dogs with us, and the tables were out of the way. Food was very good.

Great fun. The chicken was as juicy as a juicy thing. The staff were amazing.
