| A pleasant enough pub in the main shopping street. The walls were plastered in old black and white photo’s of St. Ives, mostly focusing on it’s nautical heritage. I’m sure they’d make a fascinating study for a historian, and were very interesting to an uneducated punter such as myself. There’s a dart board in one corner, although it didn’t look to get too much use judging by all the tables in front of it. The walls are part wood panelling at the bottom, giving way to an orange plaster above, which is then covered with the aforementioned photo’s. There’s also a couple of leather sofa’s dotted around a fireplace. The barman seemed pleasant enough, and generously offered to top a pint whose head had settled without any prompting. The choice of piped music was a bit weird though. The solitary beer on tap was Doom Bar, which was a little disappointing. Ciders were Cornish Orchard and Cornish Rattler.

| Doom bar and hetty stogies on the draft and my brother beer was a little warm - guniness fairly good. Very average pub in a town full of ones much better. Castle and Queens much better - staff seemed a little stuck up, food supposed to be good but didnt try it londonsteve - 21 Apr 2010 16:48 |
| Very similar in style to the castle next door. Lacks the selection of ales though with only Doom Bar available at the time. Food is good particularly sunday lunch. costello - 13 Sep 2009 18:55 |
| Really like this pub. Doom Bar and Betty Stogs both well kept. Went in here virtually every night this time on holiday. Nice atmosphere, friendly locals and staff. Didn't eat here but the food looked good. clodsthecat - 26 Sep 2008 15:43 |
| Rather like this pub, food was fine, very busy as most pubs are in St Ives, but still maintained a nice pubby feel, rather than just a tourist gastro pub. nicnocs1 - 22 Sep 2008 16:47 |
