The Ferryboat Inn

FALMOUTH

West Cornwall

4/5

Based on 10 reviews

Refurbished in 2018, this pub opens all day and offers indoor and outside seating. In good weather the outdoor seats are at a premium and it's a great place to sit and watch the boats come and go along the estuary. Parking is up the hill so be prepared to walk as there's no parking on site.

Superb 10/10

What a great place! We went for dinner and had a fabulous meal. Excellent service and so welcoming. Would highly recommend booking so you don't miss out on this treat!

Friendly service and delicious food

Despite being very busy and struggling with staff due to COVID pinging, the service was excellent and the food delicious. Everything came quickly and was piping hot and the odd alteration we asked for was no problem at all. I would highly recommend.

Not for people who have mobility issues!

Nice food and lots of activity to watch but very inaccessible. Do not try it if you have any mobility problems

Expensive

We came here in October - not half term. We just wanted a snack but found the prices to high. Maybe worth outside of peak season times they run a different menu offering reasonable priced sandwiches and bowls of chips not at over £3 ago. Yes, great location but they missed out on business for 5 people as we went elsewhere.

We had a lovely lunch here on New Years Day.
Always a reliable place to get good pub food.

People Watching!

A very busy pub, particularly during the summer, but worth fighting for a table overlooking the beach just for the entertainment...... and the food is excellent! Being foodies, we were particularly impressed by the bread baked on the premises.

The Ferryboat Inn has just come under new owenrship and had a complete refurb by the Wright Brothers who also own the oysterage just around the corner on the Helford River. A great new menu boasting a 'farm to plate' philosophy, good looking new interior and views to delight.
