The Dock Inn

8.4/10 — Setting 8 Selection 7 Service 10 Food Value 8 Overall 9

Had the pleasure to visit this gem on Boxing Day 2025. Was doubting I would find it open having walked by the same time two years ago to find it closed. Thrilled to find the pub open, therefore walked in to try a couple of halves, with the expectation of leaving within 45 minutes. Friendly staff and two locals struck up convo, and a session developed with an exchange of rounds so I ended up stopping the best part of 2 hours. Three handpumps in use dispensing Penzance Crows an-Wra, Spingo Middle an Sharps Doom Bar. I enjoyed multiples of the first two - Crows an-Wra being absolutely exquisite. Thank you Phil and Brett for great company on a cold dull Boxing Day. A true gem is the Dock Inn - you will not be disappointed.
