Conveniently situated on the main street into town a short walk from the railway station, hotels and beaches, this is a traditional Wetherspoon's shop conversion with partitions offering some privacy to drinkers. The walls are adorned with pictures of old Newquay, Towan Blystra being the former name for Newquay before the arrival of the railway and tourism. A narrow drinking terrace overlooks the main street, while disabled access is via an alley off Springfield Road at the rear. All guest ales are currently (Spring 2026) £1.49 per pint.
