A
Lewinnick Lodge
Nestled on Pentire Head, this lively gastropub wins the sea-view prize hands down, with a grassy terrace and gloss-wood dining room offering panoramic Atlantic vistas. The food's not bad, either, with mains including rump steak, chargrilled chicken and confit of duck.

B
New Harbour Restaurant
Refined dining by the harbourside, with fishy treats from roast cod, crab claws and monkfish medallions to a king-sized fruits de mers. Food is cooked in the outside grill-shack while you sip cold Chablis with a view of bobbing fishing boats. Divine.

Chy
Chrome, wood and leather dominate this stylish café-bar with a patio above Towan Beach. Perfect for a gourmet breakfast or lunchtime salad, or pitch up late when the DJs take to the decks, the beers flow and the beautiful people arrive en masse.

Fistral Blu
Another great sundowner option, in the glass-and-steel retail complex behind Fistral Beach. Thai and Med flavours mix with Cornish ingredients in the upstairs restaurant while the ground-floor cafe turns out fish and chips and Ben & Jerry's.

Café Irie
Run by surfers for surfers, this cafe's famous for its coffee and hot chocolate (just the ticket after a morning in the ocean swell) plus veggie wraps, piping-hot jacket spuds and gooey cakes. The decor's cool, too: vintage vinyl on the walls, multi-coloured plates and coffee mugs, chalkboards scrawled with specials.

Fistral Chef
Fantastic fry-ups and chunky sandwiches are the mainstays of this popular all-day café, which champions its all-day breakfast as the best in town and opens for Thai meals several nights a week.

Tin Fin
Perran's dining scene is dominated by cheap-and-cheerful pubs and fish-and-chips shops, but if you fancy something more substantial, this bright and breezy bistro turns out the town's best food. Slate floors, multicoloured chairs and light pine tables give it a fresh seaside feel, while the menu is chalked up daily on the blackboard.

Fifteen Cornwall
Jamie Oliver's social enterprise restaurant opened on Watergate Bay back in 2006, and it's proved enormously popular. Underprivileged youngsters learn their trade in the kitchen preparing Oliver's trademark zesty, Italian-influenced food, while diners soak up the beach views and the buzzy, beachy vibe. It's a red-hot ticket: bookings essential.

Beach Hut
If you can't get a table at Fifteen, head downstairs to the by-the-sand bistro at the Watergate Bay Hotel. It's similarly beachy in feel, and the menu's classic surf 'n' turf: fish curries, 'extreme' burgers and a different fresh fish dish every day.
