Lovely pub spent a lot of time in it over the last few days.Good food and beers and friendly staff.Next to a little stream with friendly locals and entertainment this is a gem and should not be missed by visitors to Portreath
Excellent service. Friendly staff. Excellent food
Lobster tonight was amazing. Easter Sunday lunch the best iv had in a long long time... Staff are so nice... Brilliant place !!!!
Hubby and I stopped in to have his birthday celebration dinner. Nice little 200 + Yr old pub, tucked away from the beach. Service was great. Food was really nice. Love they have tapas on the menu. We didn't book a table, but they accommodated us. We got there 15 mins. before dinner started (starts at 5:30p) It started to get busy around 6pm with those who had booked a table. Would definitely go back when we're in the area again.
We had a lovely meal here on the last day of our holiday in Portreath. I would recommend booking a table as it was really busy. Especially if you have a dog. There was a lovely friendly atmosphere as it seems to be a favourite with the locals. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Very relaxed atmosphere. I had seared scallops with asparagus and Dijon mash. My husband had chicken, bacon and brie, chips and salad. Both from the specials menu and both very tasty. The price was very reasonable with drinks as well. We met and chatted to some lovely locals.
A jolly place to be. From the staff to patrons. Everybody extremely friendly even the dogs. The food was exceptional and mo rip off prices. Thank you for making our week in Cornwall so welcoming.
Popped in on sat for a quick pint. Bar lady was welcoming and friendly. I chose the Skinners Porthleven ale. Really really fresh and tasty.. if I wasn't driving I could've stayed drinking that all day. Nice location with some parking. Parking available free on the hill or on the sea front just 1 mins walk away.
Popped in for a quick drink and stayed for dinner. Lovely local pub with friendly staff and customers. Food was great and we went back a couple of times before coming home. Well worth a visit
Visited Basset Arms on the Sunday afternoon of our holiday in Portreath. What a lovely atmosphere, the sun was out, live music playing outside and lots of people having fun. We had had food and drinks which were lovely. Would visit again if we holiday in this area again. Also nice to take our dog too as well.
Fantastic food, great service and lovely atmosphere. Very friendly people in a lovely location.
We both had the Basset burger which proved to be an inspired choice. It was divine, a good beefy patty proper bacon & cheese and a hash brown, the chips were perfect, golden and crispy outside soft & fluffy inside and a nice fresh salad on the side. Recommended.
Very friendly welcome and service throughout. Good selection of well tended ales. Outstanding creamed mussels and fries on the daily menu! Not our first visit and certainly not our last! Well worth a try!
Food was brilliant - really good and home cooked. Brilliant atmosphere & the staff are very welcoming. Mussels were caught the same day, tasted brilliant with the sauce. Steak was cooked to perfection - homemade chips were delicious. A bit expensive - but you get what you pay for. A stones throw from the popular Portreath Beach. I’d highly recommend you give it a go.

Delicious burger in traditional pub, thanks....after a sundown in portreath beach
I went in for Sunday dinner Belly pork nice tender. Lots of veg Yorkshire could have been more softer little dry and crisp
But id give it another go
Seafood pasta was lovely. So much seafood in it. Mussels, prawns, white fish. So well cooked. Chilli hot as I like it. Will definitely come back.
What a lovely friendly pub! A big party of around 25 of us were on holiday over the new year period and at different times had some of us popped in there on the way to or from the beach. One day we all landed there all wanting to eat, staff were fantastic and very accommodating. All the food was served hot and in good time and delicious! Dog friendly too.
Would definitely recommend to others.
My friends and I visited yesterday and were very impressed by the friendliness of all the staff despite how busy they were they went out of their way to provide us with food. We had missed lunchtime so were provided with Coronation picnic boxes of delicious homemade food. They also provided a vegetarian picnic box which the chef cooked specifically for our vegetarian member. Thank you for making us so welcome.
