A friendly, family-orientated pub, this mid-19th century building was originally a hotel. A lot of slate has been used in the bar, tables and floor, reflecting the local industry. The beer range includes St Austell Cornish Best in summer and specials in season. Food is usually available daily although actual times should be checked by phone before making a special journey; a takeaway menu is also available. A jam session is held on alternate Wednesdays, also disco and karaoke evenings are held. The pub offers good views of one of the first wind farms in the county, and has its own camping field behind the large car park. Evening closing times may vary depending on custom.
