its a Friday night, you've been out for the evening, and you fancy a drink on your way home. What do you do, call in to the local village pub. Only to be turned away by a rather abrasive young woman behind the bar who said she was shut and we couldn't have a drink. Understandable at gone 11 you... More

We stayed there for two nights. the accommodation was very clean as the room had just been redecorated and Bertie the owner said that they were in the process of refurbishing the accommodation. The food was excellent, plentiful and well cooked. We sat in the conservatory which was very pleasant over looking the garden. The breakfast the first morning was... More

The Badger has always been a place to visit, renowned for its food and service, but things don't seem as they should. I can't comment on the rooms as we only had food. Our two meals were nice, a little on the small side served with slightly stale crusty bread. Service was ok too. The price was on the high... More

My wife and I have just returned from a 5 night stay at The Badger. This was our third visit. This inn, which has 7 letting rooms is ideally placed for St Ives either by road, train from Lelant Saltings (park and ride) or for the more energetic: the coastal path. The Badger is situated in a quiet village (except... More

We visited this place because we were driving past and were hungry - the sign outside said good food home cooked or something to that effect. We got inside - the decor was tatty and the menu uninspiring (as well as massively overpriced) - £11.50 for a 6 (not 8), yes a 6oz burger!! Against my better judgement and my... More

I had an excellent stay - the room was very clean and tidy - the service at the bar and in the restaurant was second to none as was the breakfast and coffee in the morning and very reasonably priced too. The locals were very friendly and I understood from talking to them that the Pub had very recently been... More

Ate every evening, would like to point out on one of the nights I stayed, I decided to choose the excellent steak and kidney pie from the specials menu. (the pie was up there in my opinion as 1 of the best pies I ever tasted.)... More

Yes it's weird the contrast between reviews, maybe it's a seasonal thing. We visited in October 2010 and had no hesitation in staying again this year. OK the bedrooms are small, but we only want to sleep in them and who really cares if the beds have valances. The important things, friendliness of staff, standard of service and quality of... More
