The Wheel House in Cornwall

Reliably incredible food. I love the comparatively minimal menu where everything sounds (and everything we've tried over the years is) delicious. The only slight drawback is the sometimes cramped tables, with limited space for making a mess (and with spider crab there's plenty of mess).

Welcoming as ever and delicious sea food - sweet scallops, tastiest mussels and succulent prawns as good as I remember them. A fabulous experience. Friendly informative staff who are hard working while being friendly and charming.

Such a gorgeous evening sat in a boat outside warmed by heaters in December. Almost like sitting in an enchanted garden... The service was top and the food was incredible. They have a one hell of a chef there! Absolutely the best night of dining in a long time! The experience and setting was like no other. Fully and highly recommend if you like shellfish. The best around by far.

It's a cool experience and I loved my prawns. I'm not a seafood fan, unlike my friends, but they loved the food. The rating is low because we waited absolutely ages for coffee, say - 30 minutes, and had paid the bill, when the coffee arrived. It really would've been appropriate not to charge. Also, it was cold next to the window.

We were really lucky to get a table due to a last minute cancellation. We had the most fantastic evening. All the staff were delightful - friendly and very helpful. The food was divine, we had lemon and chive scallops, Thai mussels, crabs and a chocolate pud. Every mouthful was delicious. The decor is fab too. Thoroughly recommend.

Just fabulous . Lovely staff food was amazing. We had scallops mussels crab and lobster. All fantastic . Really good ambiance.

One of the top shellfish dinners I’ve ever had. Delicious fresh seafood at a very reasonable price. Make sure to book well in advance as it is very very popular - for good reason to. Nice homely feel to the restaurant and friendly service to top it all off.

Always love coming here, great atmosphere, friendly staff and fresh good quality food. The Thai sauce for the prawns and muscles is very very good! It's a lively place to eat and the way you order food means you can try a variety of things from the menu! Need to book well in advance though but worth it!

Thanks Tina for another lovely evening, the improvements you’ve made to extend the restaurant are fabulous. Food and service is second to none.

Amazing, what a find, the best this year. If you like shellfish then this little restaurant is a must, small menu but everything they do is absolutely perfect. It is quirky, one of a kind and very special, you must book in advance as it is very small. Worth booking first before you book your accomodation!
