Harden's survey result
Summary
“A quirky hotel and restaurant serving excellent local fish” – this whitewashed, seventeenth-century hotel in a coastal bay is “always outstanding”. Chef James Lean (appointed in 2015) oversees a menu that’s naturally fish-focused. “Friendly service and great Cornish ales” complete the picture.
Summary
“So popular with tourists and locals alike”, this seventeenth-century hotel is “a very special place” in a “secluded bay” and has a “top-end kitchen brigade”, whose “fresh and simple plates of fantastic food” are “cooked right before your eyes”. Highlights include “lobsters from the bay”, “home-grown herbs and ingredients foraged from the sea-shore”.
Summary
“Fish and seafood dishes are the ones to go for” at this privately run hotel and restaurant – a local “favourite” owing to the “consistent quality from the kitchen” (though service can be a tad “variable” at times).
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
