See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.
This harbourside hotel, known to locals as the Commercial after its former name, affords pleasant views over the harbour of this small fishing port. A large open-plan bar room on the right also leads to a separate bar and restaurant in an extension to the left side; families are welcome. The main bar is decorated with pictures of both local and nautical themes; it is also furnished with TV sets for sporting occasions, and hosts a pool table to the rear on a slightly raised wooden floor - the pool team meets on Mondays. Thursday is quiz night. The outside tables on the edge of the harbour afford the best views. Regular live entertainment appears most Saturday evenings, otherwise background music is generally played. Accommodation is in 15 ensuite rooms. The changing beer may be from the 'Small Batch' series of special brews. Dog friendly, the pub has excellent staff with a warm welcome making a visit to this establishment well worth the effort with family and friends An hourly bus service (U4 Penzance to Falmouth) stops close by.
