Good main course food. That's about it really. Terrible service. Slow slow slow. Waited too long for table to be cleared and sweet order to be taken even after complaining. Waitress seemed pre-occupied with other people and not us. No sweet we left . Got fed up waiting. No apology's. No smiles. We were a family of 6 adults and... More

Just spent 3 nights here, and really enjoyed it. Room (No. 3) was nice, tea/coffee, water etc, and very comfortable bed. Staff were unfailingly helpful and pleasant, food was lovely, flexible breakfast, and lovely evening and lunch menu. Pretty garden for warm evenings, and a bus to St. Ives practically outside, takes about 10-15 minutes, no parking problems this way!... More

We stopped in for dinner and wished we'd found it sooner. Excellent food at reasonable prices, The staff were welcoming and friendly and the general atmosphere was a delight. We will definitely stay there when in Cornwall again.

I popped in here on my way through St Ives on business for late lunch for one. I didn't expect much, and was I surprised. great beers, friendly staff and locals and possibly the best fish I've eaten to date in England. I love fish, but rarely does it live up to my expectations. I had sardines to start, and... More

What a treat! To be honest I wasn't expecting to much when we first arrived. The place is slightly dated. However those doubts were thrawted with the warm welcome and good food. We did have a mix up with the order and my brother got the wrong meal, but again the wine recommendation and sincere care from the landlord made... More

What can I say? Such a cute B & B. Very cosy, comfortable and well maintained rooms. Food was very good and as a pub, you can just nip down stairs for a sneaky drink or 2! Owners are very welcoming and friendly. Make you feel very at home. Just a few minutes drive, or a nice leisurely walk into... More

Extremely welcoming staff. Good advice on local things to do & where to go. Really good food. Great atmosphere as it's a 'local'. Looking forward to visiting in warmer weather as garden looks attractive. Rooms comfortable.

Lovely staff and a really welcoming atmosphere. But the food is not good. Those of us who live locally were all hoping that when The Badger was taken over by the people who run the wonderful Coldstreamer in Gulval, we might be in for a treat. Sadly, the menu has stayed the same - too tired, too big and too... More
