We hosted a 90th birthday lunch for my father at The Old Quay in Hayle, in their upstairs function room. From the initial email communication to the serving of the final glass of champagne, Trevor and his team were exceptional. They were highly organized, helpful, friendly, and remained calm under pressure - exactly what you need when planning a surprise birthday lunch for over 30 guests! The event ran seamlessly and the food was delicious. The function room had its own bar, dance floor, and restroom facilities, as well as two sets of stairs with a stairlift. The venue was spotlessly clean. The location is convenient, just off the main A30 bypass on the estuary outside Hayle, with plenty of...
We rang and booked as we wanted to eat early and from previous experience the restaurant get busy especially at peak times. Very friendly over the phone and our booking was taken efficiently. We arrived and were met by a member of staff who couldn't do enough to help us. The interior decor was fresh and felt welcoming yet still cosy if that makes sense, this location next to the estuary is idilic especially when the tide is in. Our order was taken quickly and we were eating within a short time. The food was piping hot and tasty, portions were excellent. I had the steak which was cooked to perfection special mention were the chips being crisp on the outside but fluffy in the middle just how I...
Quite why there are so few reviews of this restaurant/pub is a mystery as it is so close to the A30, has great ambience and offers lovely views from the garden tables. Our group of 4 enjoyed lunch indoors and found the food quality to be good (but not very good) and the staff and owner friendly. However, a pie order produced an incorrect pie (the recipient chose not to send it back) and the chips on another order were not fresh cooked (I call it the heat lamp problem). We were also surprised to find a charge for milk (for coffee or tea) added to our bill small but irritating on a hot day! We enjoyed the location so much, we called againg for coffee later in the week.
Perched on the edge of the estuary the location is perfect however the welcome was a little frosty and having been seated on the smallest table available the atmosphere could only be described as a little odd, functional not friendly and verging on dismissive. The menu offered a good selection of interesting options and in part the food was acceptable. Some elements were not the best quality but in general our meals were edible if a little pricey. We didn’t feel that The Old Quay House really wanted people to do anything more than eat and leave. A huge shame really as the location offers so much at first sight.

This Inn is brilliant for Sunday lunch. My husband and I booked 10 days ago for carvery lunch for today. The service was prompt and staff were very friendly and efficient. The portion size was very generous, delicious and good value for money. My husband and I are gluten intolerant and they provided gluten free Yorkshire puddings and gravy. We also were fortunate enough to have see view. We shall be be definitely coming back again.
We had a wonderful lunch, as usual, at this restaurant. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. I ordered the fantastic cod and chips with perfectly crispy batter, while my husband enjoyed his well-cooked gammon. The owners were welcoming and we have never been disappointed with our meals here. I don't see why there are any negative reviews.
The food, service, and atmosphere at this restaurant are fantastic. A big thank you to Trevor, Margaret, and the wonderful staff for hosting another fabulous lunch and awards event for Penzance Bowling Club. All of our members have nothing but praise for you. We look forward to returning next year as usual.
