New Inn - Cornwall,Isles of Scilly

I went here for dinner with my wife. As we approached the landlady was smoking on the doorstep and she flicked the butt into the weeds. No greeting as we walked in from the landlady. The staff were friendly though. I ordered spicy chicken breast and my wife ordered sea bass. The chicken looked like a frozen ready meal, but not as appetising. When it arrived the waitress had to keep stopping, despite wearing oven gloves, because the plates were too hot to handle. The chicken tasted deep-fried and microwaved (not sure how they managed that). The sea bass was oily and accompanied by soggy veg. A truly shocking experience and right up there with the worst pub food we've ever had.

Having tried to book at the brewery pub in Rosedale where we were left in no doubt they couldn’t cater for us we went to the New Inn. We were welcomed by some very friendly staff and ordered our drinks, all beers were excellent and service very good. We ordered gammon (cold ham), steak pie, chicken burger and fish and chips. The service was excellent and the food was ok. Really enjoyed the steak pie, F&C was ok but fish a bit tasteless, the chicken was spicy but rather than having gammon steal it was cold ham. No complaints, enjoyed our meal and great service.

We had lunch here. The grilled haddock was on the specials board, and was served with local veg, washed down with half pint of Tribute

I went to The New Inn tonight for dinner with some friends. I was very impressed with the home-cooked, excellent food that was presented beautifully. The staff were extremely polite, friendly, and efficient. The restaurant was very clean and had thorough COVID safety measures in place. I will definitely be returning soon.

The restaurant offers a small menu but the food quality is exceptional. The staff remained cheerful despite being under pressure. There are seating options available both indoors and outdoors.
