Food @ The Coastguard
The day boats and trawlers of Newlyn tie up just two miles west of here. So you'd rightly expect our menu to have plenty of fish and seafood. It does.
But we don't underestimate the quality of Cornish beef and poultry, game from local estates and cheeses from some of Britain's best dairies.
We have built the reputation of all of our kitchens on the maxim that the best things in life are kept simple. And it's truer than anywhere here in Mousehole.
This is a traditional Brasserie menu that takes good ingredients and gives them a very simple but classic treatment. A menu that changes a little through the seasons.
Where to eat?
At scrubbed pine or oak tables on the Upper Deck and in the bar, some perfect for groups of 10 or more. Nearly all with views to St. Clement's Isle.
Or on the Sun Deck at sofas with just a pane of glass between you and the palm tree lined gardens.
Or, best of all and more frequently than you might think, eat on the terrace looking down at the sun-dappled sea.

Large Groups
We don't mind not having a Private Room at The Coastguard. This is a democratic place and one of its beauties is the sense of continuity throughout the downstairs rooms.
You might be limited when booking online to 8 persons or so. If there are more of you than this, please do email us or drop us a call. |

Children
Our own experience is that The Coastguard is a place for parents to kick back while the children amuse themselves in the protected garden running down towards the sea.
We have short children's menus for both very little ones and the slightly older. Menus that come with a free glass of apple juice. Or they can order from our usual menu. |

Special Diets
We are always happy to look after guests who have dietary requirements. Just let us know in advance when you book.
We have for some time taken an open approach to those who don't eat fish or meat with plenty of alternatives throughout our menu.
