The Mariners Public House – Rock

Introduction

The newly re-launched – and much lauded – The Mariners pub in Rock ticks all the boxes when it comes to elevated dog-friendly dining. The 130-cover eatery overlooks Cornwall’s Camel Estuary, and boasts a seasonal daily-changing menu with an array of local craft ales and gins, and Sharp’s Brewery leading the beer offering.

Paul and his team work closely with a range of local suppliers, to source the very best seasonal produce, including Philp Warren, Flying Fish and Ross Geach at Padstow Kitchen Garden.

The Mariners is open daily, with food served across both floors.

* It’s worth noting that booking is required for tables inside, though this may
differ slightly with current COVID-19 restrictions.

Dine with your dog

Dogs are welcome to accompany you downstairs, as well as on the lower outside terrace. Bowls are provided, along with a treat for well- behaved pups!

On the menu

Daily-changing menus, designed by Paul and head chef Joe Rozier, with a focus on British pub classics that champion the best of carefully sourced Cornish and British produce. Expect a selection of traditional dishes, made with local and seasonal ingredients; fish and chips, ploughmans, a Sunday roast and inimitable ‘The Dog’s Pollock’ crisp hot dog, cooked to perfection.

Where to walk

The beach, directly opposite is dog friendly, and there are a multitude of walks just across the estuary in Padstow. Pick up the passenger ferry that runs at regular intervals throughout the day and enjoy circular walks from Padstow, either via Crugmeer, Trevone and Stepper Point (seven miles) or for a shorter option, via Hawker’s Cove (four miles).

Another popular route, taking in some wonderful coastal scenery along the way is Padstow to Polzeath, via Rock and St Enodoc Church (around three and a half miles).

What Partridge says

The Mariners strikes just the right balance for us canines and our humans to enjoy a great lunch or evening meal that doesn’t feel pretentious. Super comfy, with lots of great foodie sniffs, the terrace is a pawsome spot for fellow-four-legs watching and just a stick’s throw away from a brilliant beach to run and play on.
