Excellent fish dishes with ingenious and delicious accompaniments. A couple of interesting vegetarian options. Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient service. Short wine list with good range. A treat all round.Vegetarian options: One vegetarian option per course on the night we were there. But let's face it, fish is the main purpose and attraction here.

We had a wonderful meal here this week. Food was delicious - service friendly and they also made my 3 dogs feel welcome And gave us a table with plenty of space for them. Would definitely return the next time we are in Cornwall. Thoroughly recommend.

Just amazing food . Perfection nothing else to add! Service was very good . Dogs welcomed but personally as a dog owner glad I didn?t bring as I could really enjoy the experience. A casual place so no need to dress up. The only criticism I?m going to make is change the carpet in the Ladies it lets you down .

Again another fabulous evening meal at The Tolcarne Inn. The food is fresh and cooked superbly by Ben Tuncliffe & his team. Fresh oysters and Turbot were delicious. The restaurant never fails to deliver top class cuisine. We have been coming her for over 17yrs and it never disappoints us. Big Thankyou to all staff.

Upfront, my culinary knowledge and experience is excellent. I have worked in the hospitality industry for over forty years. If this is Michelin standard then something is wrong. Food service was poor. Service staff could not and did not pour water or wine. They did not engage with us in any way. Not even the stock standard hospitality phrases. They only asked if our meal was ok at the end, no communication through the meal. If they poured the wine it would be a good opportunity to check in with the customer on their dining experience. The food was very disappointing and priced way above its worth. Of the four meals ordered the Turbot was very poor. Served with beans and hollandaise sauce. I have seen apprentice chefs cook better meals. We all said the fish was not as fresh as it should be. The cod dish was a mix of ingredients that did not really compliment each other, possibly a good sauce to bring together. Yes that is the point, a great sauce brings a fish dish to light. To end this review I would say profit over good hospitality standards is the main focus in this restaurant.

Very disappointed with our dinner after reading so many good reviews. Menu very limited with what seemed to us odd flavour combinations. Meal was very mediocre, and extremely expensive compared to other restaurant. Staff were pleasant and we had a nice bottle of wine, which was the only enjoyable part of the evening.

It is my first time trying monkfish that brings a fresh taste. The sauce flavor is weird and delicious.

A Food oriented pub, a reasonable drinks selection, with friendly service, and an attractive from room.

How could you miss this restaurant everything is so good and fresh. The chef Ben put all his heart int the cuisine and select the best products for our pleasure and he has got the perfect crew. I warmly recommend and I know a lot about good food as my family was in the trade

A great meal and evening in Newlyn last night, cosy pub atmosphere, delicious fresh seafood, cooked perfectly and fantastic service. If you want a great local spot serving the days catch, this is the place to go! Highly recommended

We had been meaning to visit for some time and went here as part of my wife's birthday celebration. The menu is small and is centred around fish and seafood. On the whole the food was good, excepting my wives brocoli was hard. We arrived early but were told our table was ready for us, which was appreciated.I have to say though, overall the service was sadly lacking a little finesse.

We?ve been here three times since 2020 when we?re on holiday and every time we?ve had consistently great well presented food! With really delicious fresh fish from Newlyn harbour being the star of the show. We?ll be back next year I?m sure
