This little pub rests conveniently on a walking route back from the Lizard. It's a bit unassuming and easy to look over with the characteristic blackboard sign outside with quirky witicisms trying to draw hungry hikers through their door.
It's easy to walk past it, very easy in fact. And if you're one to judge a book by the cover then you might be hesitant to try this pub. What drew me into the pub was a small white menu posted outside their cream colored pub - a questionable move but either way I glanced and it and saw something called the "Nemo Burger." It was a breadcrumb battered fish fillet with gherkins, and salad between two ciabatta buns. I ordered it happily thinking I would get a fairly decent sized burger but instead the monstrosity they placed in front of me would have sufficed for at least a small family. The only way to describe it was a fish and chip sized fillet in between two slender ciabatta buns. My husband ordered the fish and chips , which were of an equally sizable portion and ate his without giving me a taste (rude).
When we went it was not a particularly nice day, that is to say, it was awful. It was blustery, with a biting wind, and spitting rain as the cherry on top. After a fairly lengthy and very cold coastal walk sauntering into this little pub, being sat next to a warm fire, and eating this amazing feast was the perfect way to end the day. The price of the food was a bit pricey, the total cost for food and tea for both my husband and I came to £35 but for the amount of food we received it was well worth it. He servers were extremely attentive though we were the only diners in at the odd hour and our food came quickly.
So if you find yourself at the Lizard, tired after a long day of walking I would recommend getting a pint, warm food, and resting your weary feet here. read more
