Bolingey Inn — Restaurant in Perranzabuloe

Had lunch there yesterday . We both had " home made pies" one steak and ale one mushroom and chicken with duck fat chips . Definitely not homemade. !! Pastry was two frozen puff pastry lids with a bit of filling in and normal frozen chips served with a tonne of peas. Very tasteless. Atmosphere was dreadful young lad and girl just stood there either staring or looking bored stiff no conversation and we were the only people in. The whole place absolutely stank of wood smoke that made me sneeze and eyes water. We so regret not turning around and leaving straightaway. My husband asked how long they had been there and a bored looking youth said since november! Well all I can say is much improvement needed or you'll be gone by september.we are both local to st.ives and would love to reccomend this pub but sorry I would say avoid at all costs. I feel like ive been...

The food was delicious and really hit the spot, I had the blue cheese chicken with potatoes and seasonal vegetables. There was just the right amount of sauce for the meal with lovely complimentary tastes. I also had the honeycomb cheesecake and was surprised by the size of the portion. I always find that normally dessert portions tend to be small but this was the opposite. It tasted good with a lovely base as well.

There was a friendly atmosphere to the inn with the bar lady/waitress doing a great job getting around to everyone. The food came out in a good amount of time meaning that the party I was with could chat a bit first. We didn’t feel rushed at all either when eating which was great. Highly recommend although I’d also say that you’re best to book in advance to save...

Very very poor, we prebooked for Sunday roast, three meats on offer, out of a simple order four meals where wrong and when this was stated to the waitress nothing was done about this at all she just looked at us, the plate was over half full with mix veg out of the freezer, the two sliced carrots and one parsnip were uncooked. All I can say is stay away as after at bit of local research, it was found that the pub had only just regained its food hygiene certificate after gaining zero in the last inspection. If this was known we would have stayed well away, apparently 4 years ago the pub was amazing when it was run by a local family and was thriving. But I can safely say I don't see this lasting long now as it has changed hands over eight...
