The fish and chips were a solid choice. The batter was light and crispy, the cod flaky. Took it down to the quay to eat in the sun, which was just right. A decent lunch spot.

A real gem of a delicatessen. The garlic chutney is fantastic. Angela on the floor was so helpful, she suggested a lovely Spanish red that worked perfectly with the cured meats I picked out. A bit of a wait at the counter, but worth it for the quality.

The pizza here is a real treat. That thin crust is spot on, crispy but still has a nice chew. They get creative with the toppings too. Had one with nduja and honey, worked a treat. It&#39;s popular, so you might queue a bit, but it&#39;s worth it.

Had the Cornish pasty here, it was huge and really tasty. The coffee was decent too. Service was quick, which was perfect because we were catching up with friends and didn&#39;t want a long wait. Good spot for a casual bite.

The hot chocolate with real flakes was a treat. Their barista coffee is solid, but the chocolate drink stole the show for me.

Booked ahead for the Sunday carvery - smart move, it&#39;s packed. The wait was short, and the staff were on it. The house red was a solid match for the roast.

Just had the steak pie here. It&#39;s proper home-cooked stuff, massive portion for the price. Place was packed with locals, had to wait a bit for a table. Feels fresh since the refurb.

Nice little spot for a light lunch. The soup and sandwich combo hit the spot, and the view from the window was lovely.

Mussels were fantastic, best in ages. Portion was generous, really well done. For the price, you get a lot of food. Solid value.

The roast beef sandwich was really tasty, the beef was tender and the bread fresh. Portion was generous with a nice side salad. Owners were lovely, made us feel welcome. A solid lunch spot.

Lovely spot to bring the dog. The daily changing menu is a nice touch, but the portions felt a bit small for the price.

Really liked how clean and family-friendly this place felt. The team was working hard even when it was packed, service stayed pretty efficient.

Decent coffee, not too pricey. Grabbed a breakfast roll after parking at the wharf. The portion was just right for the price, actually. Good spot for a quick bite.

Stayed overnight, the room was clean and warm. The bed was super comfy, got a great night&#39;s sleep. It&#39;s basic, but honestly, for the price I paid, it had everything I needed. Can&#39;t complain.

Popped in for a pre-dinner drink. The space is really nice, and the service was quick. The wine list had a decent selection of by-the-glass options, which is always a plus for me. Saw some great-looking plates going to other tables. Might come back for a proper meal sometime.

Popped in for a coffee. Owners are lovely, you can tell they really care about where their beans come from. The place just feels nice and warm. ☕️

Been coming here for years, the Sunday roast is the real deal. The beef is always spot on, falls apart with a fork. They do a smaller portion if you ask, which is handy. Decent spot for a relaxed Sunday.

Popped into this old village pub for a pint. The lounge bar is a proper cosy spot, low ceilings and a real fire. Just the kind of place you want to hunker down in on a damp afternoon. Pint was spot on.

First time here and the menu really surprised me. That beetroot tartare with horseradish cream was a wild idea, but it totally worked. The new kitchen team knows what they&#39;re doing.

Stopped in for the veggie English breakfast. The space is really bright and airy, with big windows. Makes for a nice, relaxed spot to start the day. The breakfast itself was hearty and fresh.

A proper family-run spot, feels like someone&#39;s home. The staff are lovely and chatty. I saw a mix of locals grabbing a quick bite and tourists with maps out. Really nice vibe for a relaxed lunch.

Popped in for a late lunch. The chips were spot on - crispy outside, fluffy inside. Coffee was a proper strong brew. Staff were friendly and quick. Prices felt fair for what you get.

Lovely family-run spot. The sea bass special was a pleasant surprise, and the owners are so friendly.

The menu had loads of vegan and gluten-free choices, which was nice. I went for the vegan nachos and an oat milk latte. The whole place just felt really relaxed and easy.

The rustic decor is lovely, and they have a great selection of local wines by the glass. A very relaxed spot for a long lunch.

A lovely family-run place. The staff were so friendly even when they were run off their feet with the takeaway orders and the full dining room. Felt really looked after.

The mushrooms on toast were gorgeous - super fresh, with a nice mix of herbs. The dark hot chocolate was rich but not too sweet, just how I like it. A really solid brunch spot.
