Dont be put off by a few bad reviews. We were a little worried after reading them. No need. The food was lovely and the staff friendly. My only comment was a few more dishes to give a wider choice. Really nice evening so thank you. Would def go again if over this way

Wonderful. Probably the best meal that we've ever had. Lobster sharer and Monkfish sharer more than enough between four of us.

Super ! Truly surprisingly and exciting flavors, almost too many but not quite. The quality and level of cooking are very high indeed. Staff super friendly in a very relaxed atmosphere. Happened here by chance while in a walk and had read or known nothing about them beforehand so it was a lovely surprise. Would recommend to anyone tired of pasties and chips and in need of bolder and sharper flavors with an Asian bend.

Wow. We’ve been coming to Pilchards for years but when we dined with them in May they have really really upped their standards - it was absolutely delicious! It was so fabulous to see all of the Cornish produce (mainly seafood) with an Asian twist, everything just SANG! Can’t wait to go back!

Tapas bar with some Korean flavour and great view into the small bay. Muscles were served with some delicious green curry sauce and the octopus dish was rich and full of taste. We shared a stuffed baked Turbot which is a massive and tasty fish, accompanied with perfect fries and a lovely made bok choi. Lovely place

One of my favourite places to eat. Beautiful setting with amazing sunsets. Food is just amazing. Tapas style. BBQ puff bread 👌🏻 Asian slaw, prawn panang curry plus beef, chicken and a gorgeous cod special. Highly recommend 😊

An absolute gem in a picturesque and peaceful setting. One of Cornwall’s finest, a must visit. Friendly service, great decor, amazing food, great music. We were totally impressed. Reasonably priced for the quality and quantity. Worked our way through most of the tapas items (recommended is 2-3 items per person, with a couple of ‘for the table’ items to start, desert, plus cocktails! All excellent! Will visit again next time we’re in town. Worth a detour from your planned route for a visit. We think the menu changes from time to time (which is great!) but note that the menu you read on a booking site might not reflect what will probably be most up-to-date on their website. Tip: arrive early if you can, both to secure a parking spot nearby (very limited!, or to park up the hill in the public car parks and take the short walk downhill. If you do end up being early (or leave needing a little walk!) take the time to have a walk up along the coastal cliffs, views are outstanding.
