Seaview Inn||||Falmouth||||Authentic Friendly Pub with rooms||||We stayed here so that we could spend some time in Falmouth for a cheeky weekend away!!||||What a find!! A proper old fashioned pub with some rooms and with a fabulous cheerful friendly West Country welcome and hospitality.||||The rooms are a bit on the snug side but well appointed clean and with all the facilities you need for a weekend away. The views lived up to the pubs name with a great panoramic across the water and harbour. (see pictures)||||The pub is located about a third of a mile up from the Harbourside but remember it's uphill back!!! (Top tip - There is a route to the shops down a set of steps path/green and alley immediately opposite) The pub itself is warm and cosy with a roadside outdoor seating area||||There is no parking at the pub which they stated clearly on the website and it's a lottery to get a space close to the pub (it's street parking and free) Top tip: with some patience we got a space after about 15 minutes||||It's a proper classic local pub that serves a high standard of pub food and classic favourites. It was packed when we arrived but they got us checked in quick and we managed to bag a table to order some food.||||We decided to have our dinner here on our first nights stay The pub menu was on a chalkboard with all the usual pub classic suspects but also choices like Hake with a chorizo and bean sauce. We had the steak and Ale pie which was home made and delicious.||||This is a popular pub with locals and students so you will get a bit of noise until closing time - The best bet is to join in !!!||||Breakfast was served in a breackfast room on the first floor They served fresh coffee and Orange juice In addition there was home made jams and marmalades which I particularly enjoyed and can recommend. We had a cooked breakfast on our first days stay which was really well cooked and poached eggs the next day again all very nice thank-you very much Tony||||So if you are looking for a reasonably priced B&B for the weekend or so, close to the town offering great food, friendly hospitality and a fantastic old style pub vibe then the Seaview the Landlord Paul and all his...

Read moreWriting as a pub - never stayed in the rooms and don't know if they exist anymore. This was a cosy if somewhat grotty - in places - pub (everything a proper pub should be). Taken over by Verdant brewery and closed for several months for a refresh. So we went back in with a lot of trepidation over the weekend to see if they had destroyed it like other so called updates to local pubs. And - well no they haven't it retains a lot that the original pubs had but things that needed doing up have been. It is a pleasant atmosphere the toilets are much better (they were pretty grim). As the opening weekend it was full of a new clientele who appreciate the Verdant brand, lots of beards and checked shirted 30-40 somethings. All good - Nice to see it busy. We were too late for food but it smelt amazing. Sad that the old cheap pub menu has gone but the food prices did not seem excessive. So why the three stars? Well like a lot of pubs now the beer prices are eye watering you need to consult your financial adviser before buying a round. Its such a shame pubs will continue to die if this cant be fixed and the old locals wont keep coming back or at least they will hang onto a single half most of the night if they do. We are witnessing the death of pubs and local breweries need to be aware that they cant just keep rocketing prices up. Low alcohol drink prices are extortionate too. It would be nice if the breweries like verdant tried to address the issue. I think there is a gap for a middle ground session type beer say at 2 - 2.5% strength which could be much cheaper. Maybe something to think about but something needs to be done. The loss of these social centres is driving people into their homes more and impacting mental health. Aside from the breweries this need to be looked into by the...
