"Sixty Bistro - Cream of Afternoon Tea"

I visited Sixty Bistro on Wednesday to have my first ever afternoon tea to celebrate my birthday. On arrival the staff were very welcoming and friendly and our order was taken very promptly as there was a choice of sandwich fillings and tea or coffee. The food took a little while to arrive but I didn't mind as anything that can be made fresh is done so and I have to say it was well worth the wait as it was beautifully presented and looked really lovely. Everything tasted absolutely amazing, the scones were still warm and there was plenty of cream and jam for us both. I couldn't of wished for a better more tasty afternoon tea and I will definitely be going back again especially as it was such a reasonable price for the amount of food you get.

"Pentire Hotel - Great Stay"

The hotel was perfectly walkable to Fistral beach so didn’t have to move the car. In a quiet location. Would go again.

"Sixty Bistro - Late Lunch for Family of 3"

Having decided that this was the place for a late lunch we were greeted by polite, professional staff and shown to a table. Lovely setting, well styled. We each chose a starter; gorgeous.. Recommend the pate. Mains, 2 selected steak with a sauce each and son had pepperoni pizza and side of chips. He definitely had eyes greedier than his belly. Excellent pizza. Side order good sized portion. Steaks were cooked exactly as requested. Shall definitely be returning. 5 out of 5 for friendliness of staff. 5 out of 5 for the quality of food.

"Pentire Hotel - Great Stay"

"Pentire Hotel - Wedding"

We were looking for a venue to hold our wedding and the Pentire ticked all the boxes. The wedding co-ordinators were so good. They couldn’t do enough to help us and made sure our day was flawless. We loved the transition of the whole day; from ceremony room to the restaurant to function room on the evening - there was no having to hang around while the room was changed around. Food was delicious, piping hot and lots of it. Everyone enjoyed it so much. Breakfast was good and Sixty Bistro was amazing too. All the staff were brilliant! We wouldn’t hesitate in going back and definitely will.
