| Have visited several times when down in the area over last 10 yrs. All the pubs in this area have prime seafront views so don't really have to try that hard, as most of them don't sadly. This one however is the best there, a proper pub, clean, decent beer, not sure who runs it now but a couple of years back there was a very nice friendly new boss who I think was South African. Only crticisms: sometimes bar service very slow, depending on who is at the bar. Some customers who have come in have been a bit mouthy and intimidating to folks like us who they didn't recognise, especially in the pool area. Sorry, just our experience on a few occassions. ladyday - 19 Jul 2008 16:18 |
| revisited on a holiday trip last week. would re-iterate my previous comment from last year. st.austell tribute, hsd, buccaneer on as cask. one of the few places in babbacombe I can consistently get a good pint o cask with a decent head!. reynard - 30 Jun 2008 18:23 |
| Nice although rather pricey, but the beer was well kept and different from most other pubs in the area. As well as HSD and Tribute they also had another St Austell beer called Buccaneer when I was there. Its in a great spot, the terrace has been well thought out and the atmosphere is lively and friendly, with all ages among the clientele. Ideal to pop in for a pint whilst you are waiting for the fish and chips to be cooked in the shop around the corner! Fuggle - 17 Sep 2007 14:44 |
| Cliff-top, sea-view bar, with open front and decked outdoor seating. Pleasant in the summer. Modern style, with a vaguely nautical flavour. Ship pictures, ships wheels, etc. Pool. Quiz Thursdays. 2 st.austell casks. Tribute and HSD. On form but a little expensive at around £2.76. reynard - 23 Jul 2007 18:08 |
