The Turks Head

Experience: St Agnes | Food and drink

The most south-westerly pub with stunning island views

The Turks Head is a welcoming, family-run pub holding the title of the most south-westerly inn in the British Isles. It is a place where locals and travellers alike gather for a pint of real ale in a friendly, authentic atmosphere. Whether you’re dropping in for thirty minutes or staying for the afternoon, the warm island welcome makes it a central heart of St Agnes life.

The kitchen focuses on quintessentially British, home-cooked comfort food served seven days a week for lunch and dinner. A highlight for many is the weekly “supper boat” from St Mary’s, which allows visitors to enjoy a dedicated evening meal on the island. This unique service offers the perfect window to experience the pub’s hospitality paired with the freshest local flavors.

The true star of the experience is the spectacular view over the turquoise waters toward the neighboring island of Gugh. From your seat, you can watch the tide sweep over the famous sandbar that connects the two islands, creating an ever-changing coastal backdrop. It is an idyllic spot to enjoy honest food while overlooking one of the most beautiful tidal pathways in the country.
