Pull up a chair in our harbour view pub with endless history

Forming part of the historic quayside, the Chain Locker is believed to be one of Falmouth’s oldest buildings. Today, our 16th-century pub offers tasty dishes and perfectly poured drinks, with cosy rooms to stay the night overlooking the Carrick Roads sailing waters. Sit outside beside the harbour or sink into a window seat on the first floor, where dreamy balcony views await. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing break in Cornwall or a pint or two of our award-winning beer with something hearty from our menu, you’ve come to the right place.
