Pilchard Press Alehouse

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.
