Harden's survey result
Summary
“A great find while on holiday” – this cool modern bar from Penryn’s Verdant craft brewery serves tapas-style portions of fresh local seafood to accompany its impressive beer selection. There was limited feedback in our survey this year, but all was positive.
Summary
“A must if you’re in Falmouth” – this “hipsterish bar” from Penryn’s Verdant craft brewery “serves very hoppy cloudy beers and some seriously good seafood, in all its forms from raw to frittered”. “Knowledgeable staff” are on hand to help you pair tapas-size plates with the brews on offer. “The cheese fritters are also stunning, light but flavoursome and perfect with that edgy beer!”
Summary
“Great food, great beer, great staff – what’s not to like?” – Penryn-based Verdant craft brewery opened this tiny taproom just off the Falmouth seafront four years ago, matching their brews with a small-plates menu of French, Italian and more locally inspired seafood, ranging from fish balls and fish-finger butties to pan-fried gurnard with mussels and crab sauce.
Summary
For “brilliant, fresh seafood in a tiny side-street setting”, plus their own “amazing craft beer”, try this “great tapas bar” from craft brewers Adam and James. Their “really unusual menu” is “sort of tapas-style, and there are some lovely pudding offerings to finish it off”. You’ll find a younger sibling, The Sink Inn, in Newquay.
