Fraser’s Fish and Chips on the West Promenade in Penzance are a former National Fish and Chips award winner. They have been here since 2016 and hail from the award winning Harbour Lights in Falmouth. This all sounds like excellent fish and chips provenance to me and a prime reason why we sought them out…

Cooking the Sabzi Dahl
Last Autumn we had breakfast at the rather lovely Sabzi in Padstow and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The food was divine, a total taste sensation and full of flavours that my palate rarely gets to enjoy. SEASONAL BREKFAST AT SABZI For the record I had a bowl of their seasonal breakfast which turned out to…
Pub Food at the Old Ship Hotel Padstow
The Old Ship Hotel seems to be one of the most popular pubs in Padstow. Every year when we visit the front courtyard has been rammed full of people all happily supping their drinks and scoffing plates of pub food. I took this picture early in the morning before they opened as all the other…
Pucellis in Padstow: Good Italian Grub
Pucellis in Padstow is a really good spot for a bit of Italian grub at ‘reasonable’ prices. The menu is mostly pizza and pasta dishes but they also do a fair number of traditional Italian grills too. Another bonus is that it is walk-ins only so if you haven’t managed or remembered to book a…
Breakfast Muffins at the Terrace in Penzance
The Terrace in Penzance is a rather nice, quirky and bright cafe serving excellent sandwiches, cakes, coffee and more on Market Jew Street right in the heart of the action. We had parked up down by the harbour and as we worked our way up the slope into the town this attractive looking place was…
Breakfast at Sabzi in Padstow

I usually like a traditional fry-up or at the very least a bacon and egg cob, but every so-often I have the urge to shift away a…
The Golden Lion in Padstow: Pub Grub
The Golden Lion in Padstow is a 14th century inn and the oldest pub in town. It is a proper old fashioned pub, frequented by regulars and packed out with tourist hungry to dine, it really is one of the more popular haunts in town. This week we were lucky, popping in on the off…
Cornish Breakfast from Grounded in Truro
Today we were hunting for a breakfast in Truro and found ourselves at Grounded a small family run cafe tucked away in plain sight along the narrow New Bridge Street not far from the river. The place was very cosy and the people very friendly, there was not that much space inside just a few…
Mussel Box in Padstow: Fresh local mussels and frites
Tonight we were dining at the Mussel Box by the harbourside in Padstow. We had found a recommendation and menu in our AirBNB guide at the cottage and as it was only just around the corner from us close to the harbour we figured it was worth checking out The website welcomed us with the…
Back to Chip Ahoy in Padstow
Chip Ahoy in Padstow is my most favourite of all the chippies in town. It helps that it is less than 50 yards from where we usually stay and also that it is right next to one of our favoured drinking holes the Padstow Tasting Room. I have written about this place before on the…
