There's nothing better than some good quality food when you go away on holiday & Cornwall definitely offers that & more. Whilst we were in Padstow (& anytime we go really) we ate the "standard" seaside food as well as venturing out for something a little bit different.
Here's some of the places we visited this time around...
1. Rick Stein's Fish & Chips
As Padstow is now known as "Padstein", we couldn't not venture down to the harbour for some of his fish & chips. Now these aren't your bog standard £5 bag of chips but I really do think it's worth it. I absolutely love the scampi as it's so light & fresh but if you really want to push the boat out you can have oysters & scallops.
2. The Basement
When we first started going to Padstow, The Basement was a really small indoor cafe which served your basic British food. It's slowly grown & is now a lot more refined & has opened a really fancy outdoor section.
As we'd got up at 4.30am on the Saturday to make our way down, we headed that way for a delicious full English breakfast which didn't disappoint!
4. Harbour Ice
This ice cream parlour has so many flavour to choose from but my favourite is the double chocolate in a waffle cone with marshmallows on top. Perfect for sitting on the harbour.
5. The Mariners
What's not to love... English style pub food restaurant opened up by Nathan Outlaw & Sharp's Brewery. I had some tasty ham hock croquettes & a delicious roast beef Sunday dinner.
6. The Waterfront
Now, these mussels were as good as they looked & made even better with the crispy fries. If you've made the trek from Padstow to Polzeath, then these waiting for you at The Waterfront is heavenly.
Love,
