There are two rooms both with their own bar. The bar to the right of the central passageway is the oldest part of the pub. A large antique clock is a feature of this bar. Breakfast served between 8am-11am, with a new lunchtime menu recently introduced. Thai food in the evening. In addition to the rear outdoor area there are tables on the Market Square in front of the pub in warmer months (on days when there is no town market) making more of a cafe culture. Accommodation is available with four affordable rooms. HISTORY - The White Hart dates back to the late 1600's and along with the Royal Oak is probably one of the oldest pubs still trading in St Ives. The current building dates from the 18th century. Note the stone flagged passageway floor as you enter the pub.
Castle Inn
16 Fore Street, St Ives TR26 1AB
This friendly town centre pub has been established since at least 1841 and is thought to have formed part of the offices of the Union Castle shipping line. The comfortable and roomy single bar with its open beams and slate floors is characterful, with numerous nautical artefacts depicting the past, and stained glass windows at the front.. Of the beer selection (up to 6 in summer, four in winter) there may be a Skinner's beer or two mixed in with a couple of nationally-available brands and representation from microbreweries. The pub also offers two or three varied real ciders or a perry. A busy pub with broad-based local support, the atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming. Good but simple pub food is available, and there is also a large selection of gins and tonics behind the bar. Quiz night is Mondays (20:30)
Golden Lion
High Street, St Ives TR26 1RS
Under new management from early 2019, only minor changes have taken place to this town centre pub, a 'locals' local. Close to the harbour and beach, this former coaching inn is full of life and local characters. There are two distinctive bars, the rear 'games'/live music bar drawing mainly the younger drinker; the more mature who prefer a drink and a chat tend to gather in the front, where the big screen TV is rarely on. There is an ample courtyard garden at the rear, suitable for families. The number of guest ales may reduce in the winter months; real ciders may be available.
Queen's Hotel
High Street, St Ives TR26 1RR
Large, internally-modernised town centre pub, having an open interior with a monochromatic theme including a beautiful white marble bar top - the pub has the appearance and feel of a cocktail bar. There are three separate drinking areas, one with a large gilt-framed mirror and book library, another houses the gas fire. The St. Austell beer range may increase in summer, when the pub is often crowded. The room incorporates a pool table, sofas and small seating areas, while a separate dining area serves quality food. Live music at weekends.
Sloop Inn
The Wharf, St Ives TR26 1LP
One of Cornwall's oldest (reputedly from 1312) inns, situated right on the harbour front. Especially popular with the tourists, its three bar interior is full of character, with slate floors and open fires to reflect the past; beware the low beamed ceilings. Local artists' work is displayed around the walls. Seafood is a speciality on an extensive menu, which is served in the lounge and cellar bars. Bench seating outside offers panoramic views over the harbour. A number of rooms/apartments are available. The beer is expensive for the area, pulled through sparklers, and may be served very chilled (down to 6C).
Three Ferrets
17 Chapel Street, St Ives TR26 2LR
This local back street hostelry has been variously a stables, a munitions factory and a funeral director's office. It is now a no-frills (although still friendly) one bar boozer, refurbished in a minimalist modern style, though with plenty of woodwork including a planked floor and a dark beamed ceiling. Seating is on a few upholstered wall benches and a sofa, and a few stools and tables scattered around the central area. It attracts an interesting cross-section of drinking society but mainly the younger drinker, and the lively, sometimes boisterous atmosphere (especially evenings) reflects this; there is a pool table, and large TV screens show continuous pop videos or sport as the occasion demands - the continuous piped music can be fairly loud and this is supplemented by live entertainment at weekends.
Union Inn
20 Fore Street, St Ives TR26 1AB
This small, congenial town centre local has a warm and friendly atmosphere, and is full of character reflecting the area; it is a popular venue which can be crowded during the summer season. The pub is carpeted throughout on two levels, and old photographs of the nearby harbour and related activities adorn the walls, reflecting past connections with the Union Castle shipping line. The food menu is available at all times and offers several veggie options. Live music appears at weekends. Draught cider is Weston's Old Rosie.
Western Hotel
Gabriel Street, St Ives TR26 2LU
This is a solid granite-built town centre local drinkers' bar, part of the Western Hotel. The ale range may increase to three during busy summer periods with changing beers from Bath Ales and the St Austell main and small batch ranges, but reduce during the quieter winter months. Food is available only in high season on Mon to Sat. There is a large function room in the hotel which can also supply real ale when needed, and a courtyard garden at the back of the hotel. The town's main venue for live entertainment with blues on Monday, acoustic jam sessions on Tuesday & Sunday, open mic on Wednesday & Friday, rock & roll on Thursday and a band on Sat.
Rum & Crab Shack
Wharf Road, St Ives TR26 1LG
Tucked away up a flight of granite steps above the waterfront, the Rum & Crab Shack may seem at first an unlikely place to find a real ale bar, the clue to its main activities lying in the name. However, the small, L-shaped bar inside the door does (occasionally) offer real ale. The beers vary, with an emphasis on Cornish microbreweries. The room itself is U-shaped and spacious, with the bar at one end and the remainder mainly for seating and eating, with impressive views straight over the harbour and bay as a bonus. Furniture consists predominantly of old wooden benches and settles, the décor reflecting the theme and including rum barrels and a sea chest. The bar end, where dogs are also welcome, also offers a huge range of rum as well as bottled beers from Belgium and the US. Food is somewhat but not exclusively crab-orientated, and is available daily. The bar may close during the month of January.
Pilchard Press Alehouse
Wharf Road, St Ives TR26 1LF
Newly opened in June 2016, this tiny bar in an old stone-walled cellar is Cornwall's first micro-pub. Difficult to find ('and that's how we like it') and easy to miss, being up a side-alley off the harbourside near the Lifeboat Inn, it is nevertheless well worth seeking out. The wood-topped bar has a few bar stools to sit on, and there are two tables with chairs; total capacity would be around 20-25 people at one time. It offers up to 6 real ales from micro-breweries, mainly although not exclusively from Cornwall. There are also up to 4 ciders available, especially in busy periods. No food is available. Note: the pub may close earlier than Sunday evening if the beer runs out. 'Winter' opening times extend from October to the following June.
St Ives Royal British Legion Club
Higher Stennack, St Ives TR26 1DB
Friendly, welcoming recently refurbished Club Is found near the top of Higher Stennock approx. 10 minutes walk from the town centre. It comprises two slightly irregularly shaped bar areas; the bar at the front is a spacious well-decorated room open to the public, whilst the adjoining pleasant rear bar ls mainly frequented by members and their guests although no restrictions apply. A pool table and dartboard are available where club members can play in their respective teams. Both bars serve an unchanging real ale and a real cider. The club is pleasantly furnished with a mixture of standard furniture and carpeted throughout except near bars where parquet-style flooring is present. Outside is a patio with limited wooden seating and tables, with the small car park adjacent.
