Foodie Cornwall

Aspect of delights

Looking for delicious food with a stunning sea view? Look no further than The Bay Hotel. 

This small, family-owned hotel, has stunning views over the sparkling waters of Coverack Bay and is open to non-residents for breakfast, lunch, Sunday roast, cream teas, afternoon teas and dinner. Dine in the newly refurbished Hevva Restaurant, the comfy lounge and bar, or, weather permitting, outside on the terrace or gardens, all with spectacular sea views. 

The full Cornish breakfast menu offers homemade granola with Greek yoghurt and fresh fruit to start, accompanied by Cornico coffee or Cornish Tregothnan tea, juices, croissants, and pain au chocolat, followed by a traditional Bay breakfast. If a full Cornish breakfast isn’t
for you, try the sautéed mushrooms and poached egg on sourdough, salmon with scrambled eggs, a classic Arnold Bennett omelette, or the delicious Pain Perdu. 

An all-day bar menu serves favourites such as crab sandwiches or beer-battered fish and chips with homemade tartare sauce. If you fancy something a little more adventurous, why not try a dish from the seasonal lunch specials offering options like lamb’s liver with wild mushrooms on brioche, pan-fried Cornish mackerel with niçoise salad, moules and frites, or bouillabaisse with rouille crouton? 

Cream teas at The Bay are a treat not to be missed. Enjoy delicious homemade scones accompanied by Boddingtons Cornish strawberry jam, Trewithen Dairy clotted cream and a pot of Cornish Tregothnan tea. 

Relax with a glass of wine or a cocktail and take in the spectacular sea views from the Hevva Restaurant or, if nature allows, outside on the terrace. The Hevva menu reflects the abundance of fresh seafood on offer, much of it sourced sustainably from Coverack’s fishermen, with lobsters and Cornish king crabs delivered by Lew, who lives just next door to the hotel!
