    A ferry ride from Padstow drops you in Rock, where this large, buzzy gastropub sits right on the estuary with terrace views over the Camel. Part of Paul Ainsworth's Cornish stable, it leans into hearty, no-nonsense British cooking: shepherd's pie and fish and chips alongside whatever the day boats brought in. The crowd arrives sunburned and hungry, which is more or less exactly the clientele the place was built for.

      “For those looking for something a little more seasidey, then the Dogs Pollock crisp pollock hotdog may hit the spot, served with pickled cucumber, triple mustard, dill and parmesan and salty skinny fries.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
