About us

The team warmly invites you to join them at The Lugger Inn, Polruan — not to be confused with the pub of the same name in Fowey.

Situated right on Polruan Quay, just yards from the Fowey-Polruan foot ferry, The Lugger is one of two pubs serving the local community and visitors alike. The building, which first opened in 1794, has a fascinating history, once housing sail lofts, fish cellars, and private homes.

Today, The Lugger offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere with an excellent selection of St Austell Brewery’s award-winning ales, carefully chosen wines, and a superb collection of gins. Our passionate chefs create a seasonal menu packed with locally sourced ingredients and classic pub favourites, designed to deliver the perfect Cornish pub experience.

We are proud to be fully dog friendly, so your furry friends are always welcome.

Join us every Thursday for quiz night, including a special charity quiz once a month — full details available on our socials. As part of our commitment to supporting local causes, we also host a weekly meat raffle every Sunday, with all proceeds donated to local charities.

For your convenience, we offer essentials for sale including our very own range of frozen ready meals — perfect for taking a taste of The Lugger home with you.

If you’re staying with us, you’ll enjoy one of our four comfortable ensuite bedrooms, each boasting stunning views of Polruan Harbour. One of our rooms even features a private roof terrace overlooking the estuary — the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the scenery.

Whether you’re here for great food, a lively quiz night, or a relaxing stay by the water, The Lugger Inn offers an authentic and memorable Cornish experience.
