Cove Restaurant

You’ll find Cove Restaurant set inside Newquay’s famous Esplanade Hotel. Boasting an incredible costal setting, this venue offers outstanding views of one of the UK’s most famous surfing locations and it’s just a few minutes’ walk to the shore. Visitors staying in the area can choose from a variety of rooms, including spacious family suites and couples’ rooms, and the hotel staff are delighted to welcome four-legged friends too. With a sea view or your own private balcony, you can wake up refreshed by the invigorating sea breeze while Quicksilver and Roxy-themed rooms are contemporary and cool – ideal for keen surfers, who will also love the hotel’s proximity to Fistral Beach.

Over in the Cove Restaurant, diners are offered a relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere where everyone is welcome, whether you’re staying in the hotel or just looking for a tasty meal out. The restaurant itself is light and airy and the large windows provide an unbeatable view of the sunset each evening – it’s the perfect spot for a romantic date. Why not celebrate your day by the sea with some traditional seafood? Begin with a starter of fresh mussels in a zesty lime and coriander sauce, before indulging in a dish of traditional Cornish ale-battered fish and chips. Or if you prefer turf to surf, try the meat antipasti board followed by a juicy fillet steak with mouth-watering confit tomatoes, grilled mushrooms, rustic chips and salad. Vegetarians aren’t forgotten either: the deliciously crunchy Thai stir-fry noodles are full of flavour and the superfood salad is zingy and refreshing.

For those dining earlier in the day, the lunch menu awaits. Expect delights such as creamy wild mushroom risotto and loaded potato wedges, as well as freshly made sandwiches and toasties. On Sundays, the irresistible roast lunches draw guests from far and wide. Enjoy your favourite succulent meat along with all the classic trimmings and an unbeatable ocean view. With its scrumptious food and exquisite views, a trip to Cove Restaurant is an unforgettable experience. Visitors find themselves returning again and again and the excellent level of service at this hotel has been recognised with a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
