Decent enough old pub that resists being too much of a tourist trap, at least in the main downstairs bar. Nautical and proper pub decor and a decent atmosphere, actually quite rowdy though it was mostly filled with groups looking for food. Four St Austell ales and a fine pint of Trelawny was served by a friendly barmaid. Loses a point for the totally unfitting contemporary R&B/dance music, but I felt very cosy in here.

The interior is well described below, though much of the Summer custom is at outside tables on the large tarmac square adjacent, which feels like a car park but does overlook the harbour. The outside was crowded, noisy and smokey, so we were very pleased to find a table inside. The staff were pleasant and helpful, even asking whether we were CAMRA members so they could give us discount. Treats and drinks were offered to dogs. Food was excellent if a little pricey. Ales on were Bath Summer’s Hare, Tribute, Proper Job, Trelawny and Betty Stoggs, all in perfect condition. Definitely worth a visit.

Pretty well what you would expect from an old harbourside pub: low-ceilinged with lots of woodwork covered in nautical junk. there is a very large outdoor area of tables out on the quayside, but beware the seagulls if eating. Upstairs has been nicely modernised, with a dining area and a separate restaurant with its own bar and superb views, which can be hired for functions. Draught ales mainly from St Austell/Bath but including Betty Stogs and also draught ciders.
