Price also very reasonable, stay away from being ripped off in Padstow and come here instead. View all feedback. What Michelle B doesn't like about Rafferty's Cafe Wine:

Rafferty's restaurant in St. Merryn offers a mix of experiences, with some customers praising the top-notch service, delicious food, and reasonable prices, while others were disappointed with long wait times, under-seasoned dishes, and poor quality meat. The dog-friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff were particularly appreciated by many patrons. Overall, the restaurant seems to have potential to offer a fantastic dining experience, with some improvements in food quality and service timing needed to reach that goal.
