Nice restaurant, the meal deal is very cheap 2 mains for 11.99! The starter portions could be a bit more on the plate, but i can really recommend the spicy chicken burger, very tasty!! I also wanna add that the waiters are very friendly and fast in service. If you add more food on the plate it will be 5 stars.
Visited last minute for Sunday lunch- and the food was absolutely lovely. We called ahead to see whether we could squeeze in, and the lady we spoke to on the phone was extremely friendly and polite.
It was busy when we arrived, so there was around a 5-10 minute wait to be shown to our table but this wasn't an issue. Once seated, we decided to opt for a roast dinner. We were told a waiter would be over to take our order, but after around 20 minutes of waiting we went to the bar to enquire. Shortly after this, a waiter arrived at the table to take our order.
It took around an hour for the food to come, but the pub itself was comfortable and welcoming. This wait time is understandable for a busy Sunday service with large parties at other tables. The staff appeared to be extremely busy and stressed- which is no fault of their own.
Overall, the food was lovely, but the service could have been better- but it will not deter me from visiting again when I'm back in Helston.
Staying at the Premier Inn, Helston, the May Tree is within the same car park, easy for my morning breakfast and evening meal. The meals are delicious, very hard working staff, all very bubbly and making their customers feel welcome, thank you to Ellie, Tiff and Emily for waiting on me, my stay was brightened up in the evenings with your lovely personalities, oh, and helping me decide what to choose to eat with the "Smothered platter" and "Smothered Chicken" . Chef Kelly, wonderful meals, an absolute delight to have sampled... I hope to visit again in the future. Best wishes to you all. - Paul. 24/8/2023
