The Cove At Maenporth

Came across this restaurant by chance as it is dog 🐕 friendly, lovely place, great view out to sea, staff friendly and attentive but not too much. The food was delicious and well presented a lovely end to our 30th Wedding Anniversary. Will certainly go there again the next time we’re in Cornwall.

Quite possibly some of the best seafood I’ve had in my life. DOG FRIENDLY ! Cove view what more could you want .

The Cove is under new ownership from the beginning of February 2025 and we loved it! Bright, cheery and stylish interiors and outstandingly good food. They’ve only been open for a week and we look forward to returning often. And what a welcome bar for dogs!

Didn't look like much from the outside and just thought we would try it , and I'm so glad we did the staff was lovely especially the young girl and the food was amazing! Would definitely recommend and will definitely visit again when I'm back in cornwall

The food was very well presented and delish . The service was very friendly Lovely view. Quite and relaxed. Thank you x

Amazing restaurant, friendly service, the quality of the food was superb. We will definitely go again when in the area

The Cove is under new management in 2025 and having visited this restaurant every year over the last 10 years whilst on our annual Cornish holiday at the Maenporth Estate this year without question was the best! It makes all the difference when you have a manager who is outstanding, he was exceptionally friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble and the service team supporting him was excellent - the service was fantastic! The food was the best meal out I can remember having, such incredible flavours, beautiful presentation and really good portion sizes (always a relief when trying to feed hungry teens with the group). To top it off the tide was in and our table was perfectly positioned to watch the sun set. The pricing is on point, fair for the quality of food, service and beachside location - previously prices here have been exceptionally high - the new management have got this spot on. I would highly recommend visiting if you are looking for a special experience, thank you to the chef, manager and the service team for making the first night of our holiday in Cornwall so special. Wishing you years of success here!

I had the tastiest meal I've had anywhere in a long time. I just wanted to savour every mouthful of my easter sunday lunch. The flavours were amazing... Who would have thought that a salmon, rhubarb and celeriac espuma would work, but it was a revelation. It felt like I was eating in a Michelin starred restaurant but the prices were way more affordable. I'll be back for another meal before my holiday ends, and I'd definitely recommend this restaurant, even if you need to travel a bit to get to it. Amazing food, beautiful views and friendly welcoming service

very nice experience - with vegan options. Frienfly staff. stylish refurb by new management

Now this Restaurant looks out over Maenporth Beach. Just next to it lies a 'real' smugglers lane which meanders up to Bareppa. At night this is another romantic cornish haunt with small lights glinting amongst the trees and cliffs and would be a wonderful place to take someone special. Food= Very good Staff = friendly Taxi = Best way to travel to and from During the day The Cove is a very fashionable location.

The Cove is right next to Maenporth beach just down the coast from Falmouth. We went there recently for our works Christmas lunch, the food was really nice and was great value at £13.95 for a three course meal, the staff were friendly and helpful. The view from the seating area is great looking out to sea down over the beach, we were in a side alcove just off from the main restaurant which is great, almost a private room for larger groups. The main menu for the Cove seemed a little expensive but considering the quality of the food we'll probably go back for a treat at some point.
