Of the two attractive-looking pubs in the tiny square of St Keverne, The Three Tuns looked the more characterful and the menu displayed outside offered a wider choice.
We were pretty late for lunch (around 2:30pm) so were not surprised to find that there were...only two Sunday roasts remaining. My mother and sister each chose a roast and I opted for haddock and chips.
The meals were very good and the pub has a cosy, old world atmosphere. Eating Sunday lunch in a place like this took me back a few decades. That said there was nothing old fashioned about the range of dishes on the menu or the bright, friendly service.
There pub offers a good range of West country beers and ciders and, had I been staying in St.Keverne, I would happily have whiled away the evening in the convivial bar.
My only very small negative is that the haddock was rather overdone (due, doubtless, to the late time at which we were eating) and, despite being described on the menu as 'large' was actually rather small.
But overall, a very nice lunch in a great little pub.More
