We just had a drink on a Sunday evening and really enjoyed the view with all the sailing boats. Our gin and tonics were good too.

·

Really nice food, good selection. Staff were lovely. Food and drinks were served fast. Great view of the river Fal

·

£5 a pint and this isn't the most expensive, decent though although if staying in the above hotel you can afford to drink here

·

Lovely place food could have been hotter .Staff very polite.

Six of us dined this evening for the first time at the Working Boat and we were not disappointed. The staff were welcoming, pleasant and very helpful, the view from our table over the harbour was a delight, and the food was absolutely top notch. Our sharing platter with added halloumi was delicious, and the main courses of Caesar salad, crab salad, and jambalaya were wonderful, very generous, fresh and delicious. How the chips stayed hot until the end of the meal was incredible, and they were perfectly seasoned too. A proper gem, well worth visiting.

Great view over the harbour from the Marquee. Great food. My beer was flat so I has to send it back. Service generally quite poor only seemed to take an interest when there was possibility of a tip at the end.

This review was written during covid times. We booked a table as lockeddown restrictions were eased and got a table under the marquee. The staff were friendly and we were served our food and drink quickly. My girlfriend and I both got the fish and chip then got the chocolate expresso with shortbread as dessert. The chocolate was very thick and rich and neither of us could finish it.A few days later my mates went to the working boat without a reservation and they had a totally different experience. They had to sit outside and could only order the fish and chips from the menu. Now that the restrictions are eased even further I'm not sure if this is still the case but be warned you should book before you pay them a visit.

A mid-week visit in early October to this quaint spot looking over the water, broke up the monotonous routine of working from home.If you have never been here before, just note; it's not the most well signage venue and as it is tucked away from the main part of Falmouth, we did have to keep our eyes peeled, but it was worth the walk.A mix of traditional menu options like fish and chips as well as some other modern classics like mackerel pate and squid in almost a tempura light batter is what we found on the lunch menu. We were informed by the staff that their menu had been streamlined due to COVID dining restrictions but what the management/chef chose to put on the menu was a good variety.Each dish was presented very well and arrived at our table quite quickly.For two people that had a starter, a main and a glass of wine each our meal came to just under £29 per head which I thought was very reasonable.The staff that served us were attentive and swift and made for a lovely lunch spot.

Service was good and food good too, but went cold quite quickly because it was served outside because of Covid restrictions. But that wasn't the Pub's fault.

We booked a table at The Working Boat for a night out with friends. Had a brilliant meal, the food was delicious. The service and atmosphere was very good despite them being very busy you felt that nothing was to much trouble. Would definitely recommend going here.
