The Restaurant
The deck and views on the Estuary make the hotel restaurant one of Fowey’s favourites. You can expect fine dining and with our delectable menus for breakfast, lunch, afternoon high tea and dinner, it’s a treat not to be missed.
This popular venue is also an ideal location to host intimate small weddings and parties. The bright restaurant leads out onto a spacious terrace where on a sunny day you can enjoy afternoon tea (the Cornish way, of course, jam first!), a pre-dinner glass of champagne, or a long and lazy lunch.
It’s a great spot to watch life on the estuary unfold, from boats of all shapes and sizes to the local wildlife which includes resident swans and the occasional dolphin.
Our expertly selected wine list is crafted to complement each course on the menu.
The Location
The Old Quay House is tucked away in the heart of the quaint, bustling seaside town of Fowey.
Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the town hangs off the west side of the Fowey estuary where the large, deep water harbour is a magnet for sailing fans. As you walk the ever narrowing streets of the old town where mediaeval and Georgian buildings cast shadows over each other, a vibrant maritime history comes to life.
Lining the main Fore Street you will find many small, independent shops selling unusual gifts, artwork, clothing and books, as well as our beloved hotel.
Attractions such as the Bodinnick Ferry, Fowey Aquarium, St Catherine’s Castle and Readymoney cove, make this Cornwall hotel a popular holiday destination.
