Jacobs Ladder, Falmouthback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Great pub!! As a new person to the area, I can confirm that this is a proper pub!! 2 good ales on tap, and even a proper cider (Old Rosie) Regular entertainment, the best staff, pool table, proper jukebox. And just in case there is any doubt, they don't have alcopops, and they do serve proper food, not micro crap food!!!!! I welcome any genuine comments from people who have actually been in there. I have been using it for the last 4 months 3/4 times a week!!!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'VE TRENDIFIED THIS PUB!!! Why oh why are all our characterful inns and quirky pubs being turned into homogenised, sterilised, bland, boring drinks dispensaries??? We used to have such a laugh in here, admittedly it was pretty grimy, but the fun factor always overlooked the aesthetics. BRING BACK OUR MAD OLD PUBS and somebody stop these awful pub companies wrecking the life and vivacity of our traditionally sociable, enjoyable late night watering holes, where we can relax and be ourselves. There you go, rant over. But you know I'm right. I really, really hope the new owners are sensitive to the pub's past. Will report in once I've visited...

I used to drink in this pub four or five years ago. It may've been on the scuzzy side, but there was always a great time to be had, always some off-the-wall characters and with music every night, I felt I could always head there for a reliable laugh. It does seem to be an unfortunate trend that pubs with a great party atmosphere accumulate grime, but I know I'd rather have a good time than a clinical one. I was very, very sad to hear it's been thoroughly made over. I hope the building keeps some of its mischievous love for life and imbibes the new owners with it!

This place has closed down now. Probably for the best because it was a shithole.

I like this pub, lots of regular free music, relaxed, friendly atmosphere. It could do with some better beer and though I like the shambolic look of it, it could be improved - those glass swing doors, for example, really don't work. It's probably not the best idea to walk down Jacob's Ladder stairway after a few, hard and steep!

A traditional pub but also quite a dirty one, the pub seems to thrive on a kind of organic likeness, does not work, overpiced in my view aswell, needs an overhaul and an eviction for the football table would also make some sense. Nearby seaview is more pleasant,relaxing and clean.

Not the best pub in the town because it was such a cliche art student pub. But I miss those days and even that place brings a tear to my eye.

A pub filled with atmosphere. Excellent beer, cheap wine and doubles bar. Live music 3 or 4 nights a week. Home cooked food every night. Mo's curries on a thursday night are the best.
