Dolphin Tavern

Judge Jeffries held court in this harbourside pub during the 18th century. Back in 1585, Sir John Hawkins used the tavern as his headquarters when recruiting Cornishmen to fight in the Armada. Said to be the most haunted pub in Cornwall, The Dolphin now serves great home-made food accompanied by a full range of St Austell beers, plus accommodation. Fresh, locally caught fish features on the daily specials board, and the menu offers a tempting selection of meat, vegetarian and children's dishes prepared from the finest Cornish ingredients. Look out for real ale tasting evenings.
