The Springer Spaniel, Treburley 01579 370424
For those of you who don't mind travelling a bit further to find excellent pub food, The Springer Spaniel has won various awards and is named in the `The Good Pub guide 2006' with a great seasonal menu. There is a bar area and a more formal dining area. Booking advisable particularly in summer. If you go, make sure you have Springer chips and Springer ale!!! It takes about 20 minutes to drive to and costs for 2 courses, approx £12-15 per person. Treburley is on the Callington to Launceston road - you can't miss it.

Langmans, Calllngton 01579 384933
Only open Thurs, Friday and Saturday evenings more's the pity! An excellent restaurant in Callington. They have two fixed menus. The taster menu is a six course meal for around £30 per head, the wine is extra. Also, they have gourmet evenings, which include a different selected wine with each course for about £50 per head. Booking essential.

The View, Whitsand Bay   01752822345
As seen on Caroline Quintin's Cornwall programme on BBC, set high on the cliffs at Whitsand Bay on the stunning Rame peninsular, 'The View' is modern and Vibrant. The menu changes daily, with a bias towards fish and seafood in the spring and summer, more meat dishes appear as the Autumn leads to winter. A great place to take in some fine Cornish views and watch the sunset on a summers evening.

Tapenades, Liskeard 01579344844
A wonderful restaurant hiding in Liskeard in South East Cornwall with a deceptively small front which belies the spacious rooms inside. This restaurant is the best for service, cuisine, choice and attention to detail. The standards never drop, there is always something new on the menu.
At Tapanades they prepare wonderful fresh, Iocal food, using first class products which are beautifully cooked and presented. What’s more the staff are always polite & welcoming.

Finny Gook Inn, Crafthole 01503230338
One of our personal favourites. You can enjoy a real log fire and eat out in comfort or take in the wonderful sea views from the beer garden. It’s also the perfect spot for enjoying a pub lunch after an invigorating walk along the beach, bringing the family for a Sunday roast, or treating yourselves to dinner or a light bite.

The Seafood Restaurant, Padstow 01841 532700

St Petrocs Bistro, Padstow 01841 532700

Minimum fuss, just a fusion of great tasting ingredients rustically plated up and served with a postcard perfect view of the beach.
