About this restaurant

Dog-friendly
Charming
Neighbourhood gem

A charming village pub nestled in the heart of St Keverne in the unspoiled Cornish town, Helston. This soul-soothing, local pub offers a fresh, seasonal menu coupled with local craft beverages, all of which can be enjoyed in our vintage, west-country setting. Our alfresco lawn is the perfect oasis for any passing visitor or returning local. Take in the panoramic views of the rolling hills and the Ford brook with a drink in hand. With 6 luxury bell tents hidden in our rear garden and 5 ensuite rooms above the tavern with views across the village square, you can make The Three Tuns your Cornish escape any time of the year.

We've been visiting the Three Tuns for the last 5 year's and unfortunately this was our worst visit. The food was good albeit portions were quite small. Service was poor, we were not brought all the drinks we ordered and were told that there was no Bacardi....poor for a pub. We were completely forgotten after our main course was delivered, to the point that we gave up and went for dessert in the pub opposite. In addition, not reflected in my scoring but we heard a couple complain that the fish was all batter and very little fish. We then overheard the waitress call to the chef that this was the second complaint about the fish. The chefs response delivered to the table was that there was nothing they could do as that's how it was......very poor...i certainly would not have accepted that response.

Very good Sunday lunch, beautifully cooked with plenty of vegetables. Lizzie is an excellent hostess and the other staff were very friendly. First time at The Three Tuns was a good experience and we’ll be back.

Hi Karen, You have our deepest apologies for your experience with us. Unfortunatley we had a fault with our ticket machine which ultimately led to your food ticket not being printed. This has not happened to us before and can confirm we have fixed the issue. We are very sorry this issue affected your night and service, if you come back to us in the future we would like to show you what our normal service is like. Best wishes, Bethan

This was a special lunch to thank my editors who were visiting from Leeds for my book launch this week. It was important to me that the meal should go well. I need not have worried. The food was excellent and nicely presented. Everyone was happy with what they ordered. I had the trout, which was yummy. My husband and I will certainly book again.

Thank you for such a lovely review! We're so happy to hear that you and your editors enjoyed your meal with us. Congratulations on your book launch! We hope to see you and your husband soon. Best wishes

Lovely quaint little pub, very nice inside. Nice service. Unfortunately food was a bit lacking - roast was quite small and not very warm, one meal came quite late.

Hi Laura, This is quite surprising to us as the team members that checked back on you believe you said everything was lovely. If this wasnt the case we could've done something on the day by either replacing your meal or adding extras in for you. However, I will still pass that onto the kitchen team and hope you come and try us again for a better experience than the one you had. Best wishes, The Three Tuns

This was a return visit to Three Tuns and we had a very pleasant meal in the traditional, friendly pub. Staff were welcoming, polite and friendly. Food was tasty, well presented and enjoyed. Desserts also. Three Tuns have thought about every aspect of their guests visit and I was very impressed with the thought put into the care products in the ladies toilets and the thought provoking posters encouraging women to care for their health. Well done Three Tuns.

Fantastic Sunday lunch - one of the best we’ve had and we eat Sunday lunch out A LOT. We arrived during the mid afternoon lull, the pub was pretty quiet with no one inside and a few tables taken outside. The welcome was lacklustre and not particularly welcoming. Outside front tables were not cleared for the hour we sat outside. Rear beer garden could be lovely but was over grown with lots of dead pot plants. Overall the Sunday lunch was exceptional and we would return, but would hope that the care and attention being put in to the food is also cascaded to staff enthusiasm and training.

Thanks for such a lovely review on our food. As we are only just coming out of winter we expect the flowers will start to bloom soon, as our regualr gardner has informed us. In terms of staff enthuiasm, I shall speak to the staff that was on. This is quite an unusual comment for us as you can see from the other comments so I will make sure we get down to the bottom of it. Thanks again.
