Our Falmouth Restaurant

Breathe in the scent of sizzling bacon as the sun rises. Dive into the freshest seafood as a spring breeze whips across Falmouth bay. Dine on Cornwall’s bounty as the water laps beneath you. This is a restaurant experience to be savoured.

Our two AA rosette-worthy, award-winning Water’s Edge restaurant offers relaxed fine dining. Executive Chef Nick Hodges and his kitchen team have a simple ethos – to bring local produce to life, with imagination and creativity. We are open every day to non-residents with free parking, daily changing chef recommendations, and a traditional roast on Sundays for all the family.

The Water’s Edge restaurant, bar and terrace serve food all day until late, so come at a time that suits you. All you need to do is order, relax and drink in the view.

our executive chef Nick hodges

Nick, born in Falmouth, has been cooking since an early age. Having worked with legendary chefs and personalities such as Keith Floyd and Jean Christophe Novelli, he returned to his home town after time working and travelling around the world.

In 2014, he joined The Greenbank as Head Chef, refocusing the menu to highlight Falmouth seafood and Cornish produce. The Greenbank was soon awarded two AA rosettes and the re-opening of the famous Working Boat pub soon followed, which delighted local residents and visitors alike.

"A fixture on the town’s waterside since the 1700s. Expect spectacular views, cosy vibes and expert fish cooking."

Olive Magazine

"If there’s a place to dive into local fish and seafood, this is it. Executive chef Nick Hodges is a Cornishman through and through, and consequently leverages the area’s natural larder to maximum effect."

Foodism Magazine

"A previous haunt of salty sea dogs and weary wanderers, The Greenbank has watched over Falmouth’s historic harbour for almost 400 years. And while its guests are now nomadic weekenders instead of weathered captains, Cornwall’s fleet of fishermen are still honoured in a menu swimming with the latest catch."

Food Magazine

"The place to be on a Saturday night in Falmouth. The team are simply the loveliest people. All local, all smiling, all giving you the impression they genuinely love being there — it makes such a difference to the experience."

Alice Tate, Flash Anthology

"Executive chef Nick Hodges brings together a fusion-focused menu, with dishes like the baked flaky hake fillet with saffron, lemon and crab risotto and for vegetarians, the hearty homity pie with baby carrots, tenderstem brocolli and a delicious roasted onion puree."

The Independent

"Dining in The Water’s Edge restaurant is a hearty affair, with all produce sourced from the South West. Executive chef Nick Hodges attempts to highlight the very best of Cornish fare with his rustic fine dining."

The Telegraph

"The hotel’s restaurant is long and thin, taking full advantage of the wonderful view across the harbour which is mesmerising by day or by night."

Travels with Kat

"This well-fed town isn’t short of phenomenal vantage points, yet the views to be savoured over supper at the Water's Edge are arguably some of the best Falmouth has to offer."
