Brasserie on the Bay

You're sat right on Gyllyngvase Beach—properly on it—with the Atlantic doing its thing while you eat. Brasserie on the Bay doesn't pretend to be something it's not; it's a proper neighbourhood restaurant that happens to have one of Falmouth's best views attached to it. The menu reads like a brasserie should: familiar but done well, leaning into seafood because, well, you're staring at the sea. It's the sort of place locals actually return to, not just tourists ticking boxes on their holiday.
