    We had the Hake special which was delicious and shared the Turkish Delight panacotta. The panacotta was light and was perfect to end the meal.

    This restaurant is perfectly located with beautiful views over the fully working and busy harbour. The menu is simple, however that isn’t a criticism, the food was delightful, full of flavour and well presented. Staff were busy, but still managed to be really attentive and helpful. If you go to Mevagissey, book a table here, even if it’s just for scallops and chips!
