This place really delivers. It would be very easy for a venue of this location to serve average fair with disinterested staff- but they really stand up to expectation. We came here on a grey lunchtime, dogs were welcome so long as they were on a lead and off the furniture. The antipodean staff (a young lady and a gentleman)... More

We visited The Rising Sun Inn on numerous occasions while staying in St. Mawes in May 2013 on our first trip to Cornwall. The food is fabulous and the staff are very friendly & obliging. The pub has a great atmosphere with lots of different seating areas, including a really nice outdoor terrace overlooking the harbour & Roseland Peninsula, ideal... More

Visited the rising sun for lunch on Saturday 27 April. Food was delicous. We all had different. One of us had the one of the vegetarian options. Which she said was heavenly. They have some different veggie options to the normal run of the mill stuff. Will definitely visit again. Lovely village, lovely pub fab views.

This is a well located pub type restaurant in the Centre of St Mawes, with some sea views sand plenty of outdoor seating in a Sunni and sheltered spot. The menu is indifferent pub fare at prices which reflect its location. Dogs allowed. Wine by the glass quite poor. No comment on accommodation since we only had lunch here.

We visited the Rising Sun for four nights with our two Border terriers. Our room was clean, warm & comfortable with a sea view. The specials in the bar/ restaurant were so good we couldn't be bothered to eat anywhere else. Fish &chip night on Fridays was particularly good and brought in the locals. Dogs were allowed in the bar... More

We stayed at The Rising Sun in St Mawes as we were walking the coastal path. Our room was nicely decorated with a lovely view out to the harbour of St Mawes. The bathroom however was not very clean, the toilet would not flush properly. The temperature control on the radiator was covered in tape so you could not turn... More

This is our second visit to St Mawes andThe Rising Sun this year. I was rather dissapointed with the fish and chips on our last visit but can honestly say that on our most recent visit on the 12th of October things had changed they are now frying their own cut chips again and the meal was excellent. Well done... More
