The Watering Hole, Perranporth

Words cannot describe a hot summer night here!!! You may dream of Australia but you can find it here at Britian's only beach bar, tucked into the sand dunes along the vast Perranporth beach. Catering to the trendy young set, not so much a drinkers pub as a small night club. Can get hot and sweaty - always goes off. On the A-list of Cornish live music venues with nationwide pub circuit and occasional name bands, wide variety of musical styles to match the great choice of food and drinks. Occasional problems with very high tides lapping at the door. Don't wear your best party shoes; DO be ready for a memorable night! And the whole 3-mile beach to explore after hours if holiday romance should strike you. Closed all winter and occasionally in season during storms.

The Tinners Arms, Zennor

Great country pub in a picturesque tiny village. Handy for coast path walkers, 1km off the path and the only refreshments in the area. Well kept St Austell ales, great food, wonderful warm welcome. Gets very busy in high summer, but you can also be alone in the bar some nights off-season.

The Pirate Inn, Alverton

Well kept ales and regular entertainment nights. Mostly a locals pub for the adjacent council estate, also recommended by the youth hostel staff to their customers for a quick evening drink.
