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.

Great service, pleasant food

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.

Ultra clean with exceptional service

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.

Perfect play for a drink or food.

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.

Superb

Great staff,very welcoming friendly polite service, quick food delivery. Food excellent and value for money, took some home as there was too much. Peaceful atmosphere and lovely decor Close to amenities. 

Lovely place

Visited The Dolphin by these reviews… On arrival, the place wasn’t overly busy. Arrived just after 4pm, Sunday lunch had already sold out. 
The child and ball’in chain opted for the homemade lasagna (£13). 
I took the homemade curry (£16). I was asked if I wanted chips or rice, chips this time with a side of onion rings( paid extra and Frozen (not fresh& homemade). 
Given some of the time on the special board, next to the sea and the price of the meals i.e fish dishes; I was expecting more than what we we got. 

We had to wait a while, a good 40mins and the bar manager( shirt & tie) did inform us that our meals won’t be long and are been plated up.
So, the meal. 
The lasagne, arrived on smaller dish in dinner plate with a quite a fair size garlic bread and a bit of salad. Erm, no chip! You pay extra for them🙄. My curry, it had a nice hum to it and a few chips, 1 popadom. That’s was it. No finesse at all. 
The curry was ok, you could taste the curry powder and zero individual spices.Really was homemade and basic.
The lasagne, both the girls said it was ok it even have the burnt edges around the side, on top..
So, the issue is .. the price for this. Certainly was worth what they are charging!!. We visited Taylay in St Ives ( Thai food), all freshly made and you could even identify all the different  spices. It came with good size bowl of rice( variety of rice dishes to chose) which we had a few extra side too. Very nice indeed and would revisit. Bearing in the mind the location, sea front etc .. £70 plus drinks. 
Just no comparison at all with this meal at The Dolphin , yet £64  for lesser quality and quantity. 
I don’t recommend this place at all and would have opted to go Frazers chippie or The Navy Inn( rounds the corner). Plus, I’m glad I didn’t opt for the Fish dishes they had on the special board for fear of the price for one, plus the quantity and quality again. 

Well, you live and learn and wont be revisiting or promoting this place

Go elsewhere

Visited for a quick stop. Order arrived quick from friendly staff.
Food was great the pub looks amazing. Staff and atmosphere were great  will definitely be visiting again soon. Well worth a visit while in Penzanze. 

Great food and atmosphere

It was a lovely pub with really nice, helpful staff. We were quickly served with our drinks, and the waiting time for the food was quick as well.
Food was cooked to order and was delicious. We had fish & chips and a cheeseburger, and the prices were good for the quality of the food.
Would definitely return if in Penzance again.

Lovely pub, delicious food!

We didn't pop in last year as it was rammed, think the heatwave helped.
However this year its much cooler & Penzance seems much quieter.
Enjoyed drinks & returned the next day for a roast...& glad we did! Tasty & plentiful, you can tell the gravy is made from the meat juices...its lush. Roasties were to die for as was the veg.
Daughter had the sizzling chicken which was also fabulous.
What makes this pub stand out are the staff. They all work hard & seem rushed off their feet but in fact they are aware of customers & always helpful & smiling. A real credit.
Wish this was our local.
