About Havener's

Havener's sits directly on the Town Quay in Fowey, as close to the water as it is possible to be, and is run as one of St Austell Brewery's managed pubs with rooms rather than a standalone hotel. The building's position gives it an immediate, working-harbour atmosphere, with boats unloading catch within sight of the terrace tables.

The kitchen focuses on fresh fish and local meat, with a changing seasonal menu and a well-liked Sunday roast, served either inside or out on the quayside in good weather. A small number of bedrooms sit above the pub, some with river views, simply but comfortably furnished, with the emphasis firmly on the pub and its food rather than hotel-style extras.

It suits visitors who want to be right on the water at an accessible price, happy to trade spa facilities and room service for a genuine harbourside pub atmosphere and a short stumble upstairs after dinner. The pub has picked up brewery-wide awards for its standards of management and sustainability in recent years.

What guests say

Martin Gammon

We only dined in the restaurant one lunchtime. The special of the day was whole Cornish Dover sole. I have to say it was the best-cooked fish I have had in several years, and that includes other fine dining experiences. In fact, the whole dish was delicious! The setting, right on the estuary, is very picturesque, particularly if you dine outside as we did. The staff were very personable and engaging as well.

If you are looking for the quintessential Cornish getaway, look no further than Haveners. Perched right on the water’s edge in the heart of Fowey, this place manages to be both effortlessly chic and incredibly welcoming. Here is why it earns a full five stars: * The Location: You couldn’t be closer to the water without being in a boat. Waking up to the sound of the tide and watching the life of the harbor from the window is pure magic. * The Food: Absolutely top-tier. The seafood is as fresh as it gets—the mussels and the catch of the day were highlights of the trip. Even if you aren't staying overnight, the terrace is the best spot in town for a sundowner. * The Atmosphere: They’ve nailed the "sophisticated coastal" vibe. It feels high-end but without a hint of pretension. The rooms are bright, airy, and impeccably clean, with those thoughtful touches that make a stay feel special. * The Service: The staff are the real stars here. Genuinely friendly, attentive, and full of great local recommendations for exploring the hidden coves around Fowey. Verdict: Whether you’re a foodie, a fan of stunning views, or just need to recharge by the sea, Haveners is a total dream.

Recently spent 2 nights here. Staff were wonderful and friendly. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Best bed I have ever had in a hotel! Food was fantastic and reasonably priced. Amazing selection of drinks. Nothing was too much effort for any of the staff. Will definitely be returning the next time I’m in Fowey !

4 of us ate here on a Sunday evening early June. We got seated straight away, the service was prompt, efficient and very friendly, we were seated near a window and the view was amazing. The choice of food and drink was good. We had 4 different meals and we all enjoyed what we ate. Would definitely recommend and would definitely return.
