"On a pleasant, sunny evening we decided to visit the Regent Cafe. On entering the cafe, the staff were fairly uninviting, although not unpleasant. The food was fairly expensive, and the bottle of wine very expensive. We sat outside to enjoy the sun and when the food arrived, it was pretty good. The cafe has been updated recently, after a change in ownership, but it looked pretty austere and cold, particularly from the outside."

"a party of 10 of us has eaten today in the top house inn. the bar staff who took our very late reservation were really helpful, but I fear the dinge went down as we eat back. we asked what was the answer in the seafood plate was “Seafood”. probably right, but not massive helpful. two of our party had the sirloin steak, both ordered medium-sized rare. the steak arrived very fast, but sad was extremely hard, and we tried to send a back. I really appreciate that in these times it is really difficult to find big employees, but I will just actually repeat our experience and let others judge for themselves. first, the waiter suggested to cook the steak longer, as this would make it more tender. hmmmm. a hard steak is a hard steak, but it is cooked. our unfortunate diner refused this offer and suggested that the steak could best be taken from the menu. the waiter replied that they had bought too many to do this! at this point we decided to chat with the cook. his first advice was to tell us that we had cut the steak wrong, which is why it was hard. what I'm not sure I've ever heard before. is there really a real and wrong way to cut the steak? if so, should the restaurants instruct and give a diagram? then it was obvious that our diner had cut and eaten only from the edges of the steak, apparently the middle would have been much better. that could be so, but I have rarely thought of cutting only the middle of a steak and leaving the rest! it is sad to leave a bad review, but the relevant steak was £22 not cheap in this part of the world and I think we had claim to a better meat cut. to make sure that it was not just the opinion of a person, four of us tried it, and all agreed it was difficult. but I think the main hour I would learn is that there is no problem that cannot be made worse by bad customer service. to be fair, the questionable steak was removed from the bill when we asked for the personal. I wish the top house all the best for their future and hope that the current difficultness to get big employees into the gastfreundschaft industry, this kind of experience not more regular, for us or others."

"We live near St Austell, Cornwall and decided to take a trip to Kynance Cove and The Lizard. We enjoyed a lovely walk along the coastal path. When we arrived at the center of The Lizard, we were in search of a restaurant or cafe for lunch. Remembering our positive experience at the Coast Cafe years ago, we decided to give it another try. We were extremely pleased with the prompt service and the delicious meal that exceeded our expectations. We would definitely give it a five-star rating. Excellent job!"

"Thank you TA for showing his this gem. After a windy, wet, misty day doing all the sights we finished at Lizard point. Decided to stop at the village on the way out for something to warm us up before the drive back to...our holiday cottage and so looked up on TA. When we entered two lovely smiles greeted us and we asked if they were still open, a nice bit of banter about their work day out the following day and we sat at the back of the room by the wood burning stove. Great menu selection from cakes to snacks to full on fresh fish dishes we were tempted by the sea bass but know we’re having in St Ives so we both went for the Fish and chips. Huge portion of fresh cod, with melt in the mouth batter, proper (real) mushy peas and home made tatar sauce. We also had (greedy) halloumi fries wow huge sticks of portions. If you are having coffee our flat white and cappuccino were spot on wish we had room for pudding as the chocolate cake our table next to us were having looked amazing! Hope they have a fun staff day out they deserve it ."

"Friday 25th August 2023, My husband and I we saw a sign for a 17th Century Seafood Inn at Cadgwith Cove, and so we decided to explore this further. A steep narrow lane winds down to a small cove, divided by a small rocky promontory. Thatched stone cottages cluster round the beach. It is a working fishing port and local fishermen catch mainly crab and lobsters out in the bay and these are sold at the fish market on the quay. We parked the car in the car park at the top of the hill and took the path down to Cadgwith Cove. The path wound through a wild flower meadow and then down through the thatched cottages, even through gardens on the way to the cove, a very idyllic place with pastel coloured cottages and lovely cottage gardens. A flight of steps brings you out opposite the harbour quay, with its brightly coloured fishing boats and buoys, nets, chains and winches used in the catching of lobsters and crabs. Cadgwith Cove Inn was a lovely thatched inn, with a lovely outside courtyard, where you could sit and eat in the sunshine; they also have a nice indoor restaurant. My husband and I had a nice table for two inside. The restaurant is oak beamed and has pictures of seafarers and boats and plaques about boats which have been lost to sea in the cove. We perused the small but interesting menu; it had lots of lovely fish dishes on it and we ordered our food. We both had starters; my husband had scallops and I had crab pate served with brown bread and butter. The starters were delicious and were just the perfect size to get the palate started. My husband for his main course had the prawn, hake and monkfish curry served with rice, which he said was delicious. I had lobster thermadore served with a nice crispy salad and buttered new potatoes. The lobster was to live for and I had lots of fun excavating the meat, so all that was left was a pile of sculpture like shells. The meal was delicious. We washed all this lovely food down with a nice chilled bottle of Chardonnay white wine. We both had a dessert; my husband and I both had the dark chocolate and almond torte, which was sex on a plate and seductively delicious but lovely and light and was perfect finish to our meal. We did not bother with any teas or coffees afterwards as we were both well fed and very content. After our meal we went outside to listen to the locals singing ‘Sea Shanties’, there were lots of people there and it was nice to be part of this wonderful celebration."
