Set in a beach hut above Carbis Bay (across the bay and a short walk from St Ives), the views are stunning. On a clear day the sand is white and the sea is bright blue. There really is no where else like it in England.  Make sure to request a table outside in on the deck, nearest the beach in good weather.

The food at the Porthminster is fresh, seafood based, slightly asian inspired and always good. There is something for everyone though (if your not a fish eater).

If you can’t get a reservation, you can always pop along anyway to the take-away booth, where there is no bad table since you can sit on the beach!  All my friends love going here, as do I!
