The Dolphin Tavern

Four of us visited twice and both times, as it was very busy, there was quite a wait for food but we were informed of this. Food was hot and nicely presented. The cod and chips was very good and a seafood linguine was excellent, my wife said. The sizzling dishes were a great success with my brother in law. On the second visit my special dish was lemon sole and although very tasty I found the portion too small. The Pinot Grigio was of good quality although a little pricey. The staff are lovely and there is good atmosphere in the pub.We will definitely return when next in Penzance. You are advised to book in advance, even on weekdays.

The pub boasts charming lighting and impeccably clean toilets, making it comfortable for even the most germaphobic individuals( *cough* me *cough*) The patrons and staff were friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere, and the drinks were excellent. Beth's presence alone is worth a perfect 10 rating, making a return visit a must. 💕

We went on a wet Sunday evening without a reservation and were surprised to find the pub so busy, mainly with diners (definitely more of a restaurant than a pub). I would say that the food was fine rather than amazing (I found my hake a bit overcooked) but full marks for the service, which was very friendly, quick and efficient.

When we arrived we were welcomed into our room at 11 as the room was available. The slight smell of fresh paint and the immaculate clean decor was impressive. Our room was overlooking the Scillonian ship. We had a beautiful room with a lovely shower room. Our shower was large and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. Staff were so friendly and attentive. Breakfast was excellent. We were very impressed and will definitely stay here again.

Stopped off here for a drink. What a fabulous pub. Beautiful inside and very friendly bar staff. If we hadn’t of had other arrangements we would have eaten there too. Menu , home cooked food was good and food we saw being served looked fabulous. Lots of empty plates. We will be back. Loved the quiz cards too on the tables.

Stayed on a cold wet February evening to watch the pirates v RN Staff were alll very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fantastic and plenty of it. Room was lovely and bright and clean with harbour views. Would stay here again if in Penzance.

I highly recommend the Dolphin Tavern to stay and socialise in. We stayed 2 nights. The room was clean and comfortable and had tea, coffee, hot chocolate, biscuits and bottled water available. The staff were all super friendly and efficient and we felt like we had known them for years by the time we left. We had dinner in the evening and it was delicious and good value. All freshly cooked to order as was breakfast. We will definitely be returning soon.

Another overnight stop on the way to Scilly. Excellent customer service as usual. Thanks

A traditional inn on the harbour with a great atmosphere. Richard, the owner, and his team do a tremendous job. Highly recommended
