A thriving hub, there are plenty of places in Penzance to whet your whistle. Whether you are after an indulgent hot chocolate to warm you up after a bracing winter walk or are ready to see out another balmy summer’s day with cocktail hour, you will have more than enough choice.
One thing Penzance is certainly not short of is atmospheric pubs. Some foodie, some quirky and some completely up the wall, these history-rich haunts offer a truly unique setting for a pint or a glass of wine. To dive straight in, the Admiral Benbow and the Turk’s Head are absolute musts.
For wine and nibbles, make way to the Alverne Lounge, or for something to take back to your private accommodation, pay Polgoon Vineyard a visit. Dedicated to producing a range of artisan (and certified vegan) Cornish wines, ciders and juices, this family-run vineyard and orchard in Penzance is open year-round.
