Stopped here for Sunday lunch, if l could give 0 stars, I would. Had the 'vegan version' so no cauliflower cheese, no Yorkshire pudding which is fine as I make the choice not to have dairy. But I'd expect at 15 per roast to have more than 4 tiny pale, bland potatoes and the tiniest slab of mushroom and pumpkin bake which was so dry, it was like it had been sitting under some form of heat lamp or the bottom shelf of an oven and re cooked more than once.

The veg came out in a school dinner style metal tray, full of cold soggy veg sitting in a puddle of water I had so little gravy (tasted like Bisto granules) that it had dried onto the food. Everything was cold and awful and the Manager only offered a 50% refund as my husband ate just slightly over half of his meal before giving in and quitting. I'm not one to complain as all my other Google reviews are positive but I feel like warning others.

There's a much better pub down the road called The Anchor where we had a fantastic and large meal after leaving this establishment. This js a genuine and honest review, I like to go out for nice food and want the same for others too!

Fantastic spot, a stone throw from the beach and a couple of nice pubs to eat and drink at. The staff are very friendly and recieved a warm welcome when i arrived and all the staff were only to happy to help with whatever you asked for. The single room was a good size, infact bigger than some doubles ive stayed in at different hotels! The room was clean and tidy along with the bathroom and didn't lack anything at all.

Only stayed for one night as a stop off on the way to the lizard but will definitely book there again whenever im back in the area next. The cooked breakfast in the morning was nice although didn't go to much on the sausages, but thats probably just my taste! All in all I'd give the dolphin hotel 10/10

Can't think of anything wrong amazing staff so friendly and helpful room was great nice and spacious and top marks to the chef will be counting weeks down till we come again ty so much everyone xxx

My stay at the Dolphin was lovely in April, clean and tidy rooms. Towels provided, tea and coffeerefreshments in the room which gave it a real nice touch. The staff are welcoming too. I've been back since for food which was really nice and I've booked to stay this month. So I would recommend anyone to eat/drink and stay here.
