location: Flushing, TR115TY
Our favourite pub now under exciting new management, The Seven Stars is a traditional pub just a few steps from The Green House and The Blue House fronting the quayside with lovely waterside views out towards Falmouth Harbour. Busy throughout the year, The Seven Stars is mainly inhabited by locals and fishermen who appreciate the cask conditioned ales and traditional pub food. Busy in the evenings, the views of the River Fal cannot be beaten. Watch out for Pie nights, Fish and Chips nights, and the excellent Pizza nights.
