Fantastic fishmongers and fish restaurant. Great little place and always very busy. If you can't get a table you can always go across the road and try their newly opened bistro Barnaby's.

Drinks & Nightlife

Full of locals and tourists. Great local beers and wines. One of the Steins restaurants where you don't have to book. It can get busy in the season but well worth the wait. Great staff including 'Boxer' who is about 100 years old (only joking- he'll kill me!)

Parks & Nature

Trevone is a seaside village and bay one mile from Padstow. There are two lovely beaches, the main beach was awarded a Blue Flag in 2017. RNLI lifegaurds are present during the summer season. The other beach , known locally as the Rocky Beach, is full of rock pools which will keep toddlers and older children entertained for hours. At low tide a natural swimming pool appears. Trevone is also set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with many beautiful coastal walks which can lead to Padstow in one direction and Trevose Head in the other. You can also walk to Harlyn Bay, about 1 mile and have a very well deserved drink at the Harlyn Inn!
