| Visited this place Saturday teatime and. Enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and unobtrusive locals as we sat and relaxed after a pleasant walk around town. Very reasonable and the Heligan Honey out of the barrel was top notch.3 Gravities and 3 on pump well kept makes me wonder why it isn't in the GBG?? Returned after an evening meal at our Hotel to find a 50th Birthday & standing room only. Seems popular & would recommend a visit to anyone. dotball - 7 Apr 2009 09:34 |
| In such a touristy harbour town as St Ives, the Castle seems to have a wide appealing approach that fortunately doesn’t too far towards the coach party brigade. The exterior is quite bright and alluring and the spacious, open interior has all the trademark old world low ceilings, flagstoned floors, old paneling and basic furnishings that you would expect. The maritime theme is fairly underplayed with just the occasional lifebelt and foghorn among the various nick nacks, certainly nothing too pretentious or obviously overbearing. The coloured paneled glass makes for a spectular frontage and bathes the interior in a kind of green hue.There is an unobtrusive darts area to the left of the bar 3 Ales (Betty Stoggs, Abbott, Bombardier) and a Real Cider (Cornish Orchard) served direct from the cask (despite the approrpaite hand pumps located on the bar). A hefty collection of beer mats are congregated behind the bar and across the ceiling beams. Like many pubs in Cornish towns, they display a list of banned patrons so the local trawler brawlers appear to be kept at bay. Well worth seeking out. RogerB - 19 Mar 2009 13:50 |
| My favourite St Ives pub. Turned up this year on the first day of a 2 week long beer festival. Beer always well kept, and there is always a good selection on offer. When I drive down to St Ives (390 miles from home) the first thing I do when I get there is to have a pint or three at the Castle. It's what my holiday is all about! clodsthecat - 26 Sep 2008 14:34 |
| My favourite pub in St Ives - manages to avoid being an overpriced tourist trap or a 'locals-only' venue. Probably the best beer range in town as well. daveinbrum - 21 Sep 2008 20:15 |
