Welcome to the Pandora Inn
When you visit the Pandora, it’s easy to forget you’re in the 21st century. Its spectacular setting on the edge of Restronguet Creek is timeless. Parts of the Inn date back to the 13th Century and, with its flagstone floors, low-beamed ceilings and thatched roof it’s not difficult to believe that little has changed since that time.
Cosy & traditional
While the Pandora’s wonderful setting remains unchanged, everything else in this cosy traditional inn is 21st century comfort and quality.
Award-winning pub using fresh, local produce
Publicans John Milan and Steve Bellman have been at the helm of the Pandora since 1999. Their attention to detail in everything – from the food and service to the décor and furniture – has established the Pandora as an award-winning pub that aims to give you an enjoyable and memorable experience whenever you visit.
Chef John Poole uses the freshest, local, seasonal produce. There’s an extensive wine list and traditional real ales from St Austell Brewery.
Combine this with a spectacular setting, roaring log fires and a warm welcome from your managers Catherine and Lester Croft and a trip to the Pandora is a must.
We love this time lapse sequence of our pontoon on a busy summer’s day – there’s so much going on and the scenery is stunning! This was produced by Toby Ackland one of our multi-talented members of staff. You can see more of Toby’s work here:

Memories
We first came to The Pandora over 40 years ago, before it was extended and altered. Over the years we have returned and never been disappointed. It has managed to retain its character through the changes and it is still my favourite place. This year we sampled the cream teas. Wow! The scones were the best I've ever had. They were so light and wonderful. The staff were all friendly, helpful and welcoming. Hopefully I'll be able to return in the next few years. Well done to everyone concerned.
Fantastic!!!!
Fabulous location. Quick service from friendly staff. Great food with a varied menu. Excellent.
Wonderful !!
This was recommended as a great place to paddecto from Falmouth and stop off for lunch. Sadly the tide was against me so ended up driving to Pandora Inn. Was not disappointed. The food was amazing and there was so much. Certainly don’t go here if you’re on a diet !! ? great choice on the menu and good value for the amount you get .Will definitely be returning , hopefully next time by water ?????
