🌧️ HAPPY BANK HOLIDAY FROM CORNWALL! 💙☀️☔️ CORNISH, CORNISH, CORNISH!

Is it raining? Yes. 😂
Does that stop us celebrating a Bank Holiday in Cornwall? Absolutely not!

Because let’s face it… a little Cornish rain never hurt anyone, and we’ve had a pretty amazing summer! ☀️🌊

People say, “Why holiday in Cornwall?”
Oh, absolutely no reason… 😂

🌊 Just those turquoise seas.
🏖️ Beautiful beaches on our doorstep.
🥧 Proper Cornish food.
🍓 Homemade treats from our kitchen.
🍺 And a cold Cornish Rattler sunshine optional! 😂

Here at The Griffin Newquay, we’re pretty proud of where we call home, and we like to keep plenty of Cornwall on the table too.

From Cornish pasties and homemade pies to mini Cornish jam & cream scones, our food is freshly prepared in our own kitchen, alongside the homemade pub food we serve throughout the week. 👨‍🍳❤️

And after such a brilliant summer, we’re incredibly grateful to live and work in this little corner of the world.

So if the Bank Holiday weather isn’t quite playing ball today… come inside! ☔🍺🥧

🍳🥓 AND COME DOWN FOR A CORNISH BREAKFAST!

We’re serving breakfast from 10AM TODAY perfect after a wet and windy Cornish morning! ☕️🍳

Come in, dry off, grab a coffee and tuck into a proper breakfast. ☕️🥓🍳

Good food, cold drinks, a warm welcome and absolutely no need for suncream. 😂

🏖️ Or make a holiday of it!

We have 15 bedrooms right here at The Griffin, in the heart of Newquay a brilliant base for the beaches, town and everything Cornwall has to offer.

Sea. Sand. Breakfast. Homemade food. A cold Rattler. A bit of Cornish rain. And somewhere to stay.

Because if we waited for the rain to stop in Cornwall, we’d never get anything done. 😂☀️☔️💙

Happy Bank Holiday, everyone!

🚨🍺 BEFORE THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS END… WE NEED TO SAY SOMETHING.
So before we head into the final week of the school summer holidays, we want to say something that really matters…

To every single person who has walked through the doors of The Griffin Newquay this summer whether you stayed with us, came for dinner, had a pint, tackled a Sunday carvery, booked a function or simply popped in to say hello thank you for supporting your local.

And what a summer it’s been! ☀️🌊

We survived another brilliant Boardmasters 🎶, celebrated Newquay Carnival, watched plenty of FIFA football, enjoyed Wimbledon with what felt like ALLLL the Pimm’s 😂🍓🎾 and even had an eclipse thrown in for good measure!

We’ve hosted weddings, wakes, 40ths, 50ths, 80ths, family celebrations and everything in between. 🎉

We’ve celebrated new beginnings too, with our chef Simon and Chloe welcoming beautiful baby Freya into the world. 🩷

And sadly, this summer also brought loss. We said goodbye to Sam, our much loved bike man. ❤️

There have also been some lovely moments for our team, with medals handed out to members of staff in recognition of the brilliant job they do. 🏅👏 Sometimes the people working away every day deserve to hear just how appreciated they are.

We welcomed our new neighbours at The Nici and have loved building a friendship with the team next door.

And somehow, amongst all of that, our chefs have produced thousands of homemade dishes breakfasts, lunches, dinners, Cornish pasties, homemade pies, scones, buffets and more Sunday carveries than we dare count! 😂🍽️

So a HUGE thank you to our chefs, bar staff, front-of-house team and everyone working behind the scenes. It takes the whole team to keep The Griffin ticking, especially through a Cornish summer. 👏❤️

But this isn’t only about us.

🍺 With nearly TWO British pubs closing every single day, every pint, every meal, every room booking, every function, every review, every recommendation and every time you come back genuinely matters.

So here’s a shout-out to all our fellow Cornish pubs, hotels, restaurants and independent hospitality businesses working their socks off alongside us. 🌊🍺
So before another Cornish summer slips away…

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 💙🍻
Keep supporting local. Keep supporting independent. And let’s keep our pubs alive. ❤️

🥧 MADE HERE. BAKED HERE. SERVED HERE. ❤️🍓
This is our latest buffet at The Griffin Newquay, and EVERYTHING you see here has been prepared right here in our own kitchen by our chefs. 👨‍🍳👏

Turkey & cranberry sandwiches, a mixture of cheese, ham, meat and egg mayonnaise sandwiches, Cornish pasties, homemade bacon & egg pie, and those lovely mini Cornish jam & cream scones topped with fresh strawberries. 🍓

It’s easy to look at a buffet and just see the finished table but there’s a huge amount of work that goes on behind the scenes. Preparing, baking, filling, cutting and getting everything out fresh.

A huge thank you to our chefs for preparing it all and to our lovely Polly for putting everything out and arranging the buffet so beautifully. ❤️👏 A proper team effort from kitchen to table!

And while we’re showing you behind the scenes… can we just appreciate how CLEAN those ovens are too?! 😂👏✨ Absolutely immaculate!

That says a lot about the standards our kitchen team keep every single day.

From birthdays and weddings to wakes, celebrations, meetings and private functions, we can cater for all sorts of occasions.

Proper buffet food. Prepared in our kitchen. Made in Cornwall. And made with care. 💙

🥚🥛🌾 CORNISH SCONES. MADE IN CORNWALL. MADE FROM SCRATCH. 👨‍🍳❤️
#🍓Jam first🤍Cream on top.
This is how you do it…
We needed 96 freshly baked scones so our chefs got straight to work. And in speedy time, too. 💪🔥

No shop-bought scones arriving in boxes.
No “just heat them up.”
No unnecessary preservatives or nasties.

Just proper, simple ingredients:

🌾 Self-raising flour
🧈 Butter
🥛 Milk
🥚 Eggs
🍚 A little sugar
🧂 A pinch of salt
✨ A little baking powder for that perfect rise

And we know where our eggs, milk and flour come from.

Because a scone might be a simple recipe — but getting a simple recipe just right comes down to great ingredients and knowing how to cook.

And our chefs certainly know how to cook. 👨‍🍳👏

While they’re producing these, they’re also dealing with…

🍳 Breakfast menus
🥪 Sandwich menus
🍽️ Main menus
🥗 Buffets & functions
🥕 Sunday carveries
🔥 Specials & everything else a busy pub kitchen throws at them!

Then someone says, “Oh, and we need 96 homemade scones…” 😂

No problem.

That’s the bit you don’t always see when your plate arrives at the table. The organisation, timing, experience and skill happening behind those kitchen doors every single day.

Then, of course, there’s only one way to finish a Cornish scone…

🍓 Jam first.
🤍 Cream on top.
🍓 A couple of fresh strawberries.

We’re Cornish. We know the rules. 😉

💙 Cornish scones. Made in Cornwall. Made from scratch at The Griffin.

96 scones. No shortcuts. No shop-bought. Just a kitchen team that knows how to cook. 👏🔥

🏆 “THE BEST PUB AND CARVERY IN CORNWALL!” 🏆

What an absolutely gorgeous recommendation to receive today. 🥹

And when someone enjoys their visit enough to come back TWICE, we reckon we must be doing something right! 😂🙌

Great food is important to us, but hearing that our team were friendly, helpful and made the younger members of the family feel welcome means just as much. ❤️

A massive thank you to Marnie and family for choosing The Griffin twice! and for taking the time to leave us such a lovely recommendation.

Safe journey home, and please tell the twins we’ll do our very best to keep hold of our new title until they come back to Cornwall! 😂🏆

💙 From all of us at The Griffin, thank you! 💙

If you’ve stayed with us at The Griffin, there’s a very good chance this lovely lady has been part of the reason you started your day with a full tummy and a smile. ❤️

Meet Lisa our fabulous Breakfast Fairy! 🧚‍♀️

Lisa is one of those brilliant members of the Griffin team who is always happy, always smiling and always ready to look after everyone and we rather like her for it! 😂❤️

She’s up and about making sure our staying guests are well fed in the mornings, from a proper Full English with all the trimmings 🥓🍳🍅 to poached eggs, toast, tea, coffee and plenty of orange juice.

And she doesn’t stop there…

After our residents have been looked after, Lisa also occasionally welcomes our walk-in breakfast customers from 10am, Monday–Saturday. 🙌

Fancy something a little special? Our Eggs Royale with smoked salmon, poached eggs and hollandaise is looking rather fabulous too. 😍

So next time you’re in for breakfast, give Lisa a wave and say hello. 👋

She’s an absolute gem, a great part of our Griffin family and mornings simply wouldn’t be quite the same without her. ❤️
