Harbour Food with Character
Casual dining, lively vendors and some of the best views in Newquay.
Situated on Newquay’s historic harbour, you’ll find The Boathouse. Besides being somewhere to grab a bite to eat, you’ll be entertained by views of fishing boats bobbing nearby and the sea just steps away.
It takes the idea of a food court and gives it a distinctly Cornish twist, where a wide range of street food stalls serve everything from fresh seafood and gourmet burgers to vibrant global flavours, craft drinks and indulgent sweet treats, all enjoyed from a mix of indoor and outdoor seating, all with sweeping views of the harbour. Whether you’re tucking into something delicious with sand still between your toes or listening to live music as the coastal light spills across the harbour, it’s a venue that you won’t forget in a hurry.
Many of its vendors use locally sourced ingredients, and there’s a strong emphasis on low-impact dining that consciously avoids flashy gimmicks. It’s just good food made by people who care. You feel that as soon as you arrive, everyone from the chefs to the bar staff seems to enjoy being there and what they do.
The Boathouse is a place where locals and visitors rub shoulders. So, whether you’re a surfer grabbing a quick bite after a session or a family enjoying a leisurely meal, there’s a welcoming vibe that makes everyone feel at home. It’s not just about the food, it’s about the atmosphere. With its relaxed, no-fuss charm, it invites people from all walks of life to come together, share stories, and enjoy the simple pleasures of good food, great company, accompanied by stunning views.
In a town famous for surfing and nightlife, The Boathouse is a more grounded kind of magic. It’s where Newquay slows down and invites you to stay just a little longer to appreciate and take stock.
What’s more, it’s open 7 days a week, 9am – 9pm, no booking required.
