Perched high on a hill just outside the centre of Falmouth, The Boathouse claims excellent views (the best sea view in town no less), which I can vouch for (having dined upstairs). 5 cask ales on the go, though I have to say mine wasn't the best. A range of keg options as well, as you'd expect.
To be honest, unless you're staying locally and don't fancy the hills, you're most likely here for the food, and it works well in that regard.

We thought we'd already negotiated the worst of Falmouth's steep hills, but the climb up the High Street to this one is every much as bad. You arrive to find a large mainly covered outdoor drinking at street level, along with a small entranceway with the pub's toilets. A further climb up a set of stairs leads you into the sub-divided main bar/dining area.
Most tables were taken or reserved, leaving us with just a rather large table next to the bar to occupy. The majority of customers were diners and it seems that the layout used is designed to maximise views of the estuary for pretty much all of the tables.
4 real ales are offered - St Austell Tribute, Dynamite Valley Gold Rush, Treen's Sunbeam & Firebrand Beast of Bodmin. No real cider was available. For a Good Beer Guide pub, this felt a bit too foody. Nevertheless, my Beast of Bodmin was in good condition and the pub was still worth the hike up the hill from the town centre.
