Mussel Box

I have been here many times over the years but since it has been the “mussel box” i fear it’s a bit hit and miss. the food is “good” and service “good” but it’s not much more than that. i’ve experienced that if you come at off peak times, as we have in october this time, the menu options are a bit lacklustre and the outside glass dining space was freezing. my partner had a whole hake which was very skinny, and hard to find much to actually eat on the plate. the starters however were gorgeous! i don’t doubt this place has good food and service, i just don’t think it’s one i will return to as there are definitely better option in padstow .

Lovely location, nice staff, and quick service. food was excellent. we had mussels in south indian sauce and crab tacos. mussels were quite exceptional and great value.

This is a firm favourite for breakfast everytime we are in padstow. the food is delicious and the staff are super friendly and helpful. what makes it for us is the view you get of the harbour. we've always gone early and out of prime holiday season, bit we've found it a very relaxing spot. only had breakfast but the evening menu looks good. we've got a food allergy in our group and they have always been very accommodating. really knowledgeable about their menu and don't mind all the questions!

Really fantastic food, perfect if you are looking g for a nice meal/lunch during a visit to padstow harbour. i went for the cod curry, really fantastic good quality food. tasted amazing and fresh/clean. would definitely recommend here :)

Indian muscles & muscles mariners mariner so tasty and succulent half shell scallops with sausage extremely generous amount. lovely whole sea bass perfectly cooked. not over seasoned (some chefs are way to liberal with salt) pudding was again really good.
