Dine with Us.

The Water's Edge restaurant has held 2 AA Rosettes since 1989 - that's 20 years of consistently producing delicious food thanks to the abundance of high quality local produce from the land and the sea. 

The restaurant has its loyal fans who return regularly - not only for the food but also for the surroundings in which they enjoy it. The Waters Edge offers every diner a view out over St Mawes harbour and a tantalising three course Table D'hote menu full of local, seasonal flavours.
In the summer time, it is possible to dine out on the terrace overlooking the most idyllic and romantic view. The restaurant's interior reflects the essence of the view with clever use of gold, sand and blues to create an intimate, opulent but non fussy environment that has character, charm and warmth.

For those who prefer more informal dining, The Rocks offers a varied lunchtime Brasserie menu in the Bar and in the evenings, a Tapas Menu is available in the Bar and the harbour views from the terrace are there for all to enjoy.

"The pleasure of the food is in more than just the eating. Conviviality, bonhomie and ambience are most helpful in enhancing the sipping, supping and savouring of delicious fare." (Something that should have been said by someone like Oscar Wilde but alas remains anonymous)!
