Lovely woodfired pizza in a pretty courtyard setting in the heart of Crantock and only a 10 min walk from the beach. Food is excellent in a very chilled and friendly restaurant. Don't go if it's raining!
You can't book so be prepared for a wait but you can order drinks. Parking can be difficult so if busy park on the beach and walk up, it's a National Trust car park.

Fantastic food in beautiful surroundings. Overlooking the beach, the decked area has one of the best views of all the restaurants in the area. Perfect for a spot of late lunch. Best Greek salad in the UK, probably!
You can't book, but not normally a problem getting a table.
During COVID restrictions the restaurant has been open to guests only so call first.
