The Summerhouse

This beautiful restaurant in a prime location in Perranporth is a disappointment. The food and drinks are basic, bland, and overpriced. It is only open in the summer to take advantage of tourists. As a local, I recommend avoiding this place as the quality does not justify the cost. The staff seem uninformed about the food they are serving.

The food at this restaurant was fantastic. We ordered the Lobster catch of the day, steak, and chicken burgers. Even my hard-to-please kids enjoyed their meal. The staff was excellent, and they truly cared about making sure we had a great experience. We will definitely be returning to Summerhouse. Thank you #theaigbes.

We were turned away due to lack of space, only to see two couples being allowed in shortly after. It was quite absurd. I would recommend avoiding this place entirely.

We visited this restaurant after making a booking. The location is stunning with views over the Perranporth bay. The service and food were excellent, top class. We would have rated 5 stars until what follows.....However after 2 courses we were told we would have to moved to the windy decking/bar outside as our time slot was finished. We were complete surprised by this as only having been there 1.10 minutes, we were going to order desert and coffee. Never during a meal have we been asked to move midway through. We queried this and were told that as a couple we only had an allocated time slot of 1.5 hours! We were not made aware of this during or prior to booking. Neither is this a fast food restaurant where you would expect the turn around to be quicker. The manager did apologise and said it was due to extra Covid cleaning cleaning and re setting the table)! Such a shame as we did not feel we could finish our perfect evening under such time constraints and we left to eat desert elsewhere. I suggest the management review the 1.5 hour time slot given to consume a 3/4 course meal. The restaurant is not cheap or part of the eating out government scheme. Please look after your customers!!!

A great place to eat overlooking the beach, with huge waves pounding and some plucky surfers. We had lunch, mine was thick slice of brown toasted bread with mashed avacordo and salsa, very tasty and beautifully presented. Followed by blackberry posett. Again very tasty and well presented. The staff were delightful and so helpful and friendly. Will go back soon.
