Falmouth has a great number and variety of places to go have a drink. There are pubs right down on the harbour, a lively pub to go watch the football, cosy venues where you can go listen to music or larger pubs where you can enjoy the atmosphere of the locals and students mixing on a Friday night out.

All of the pubs I’ve listed feel friendly and safe. People just want to have a drink and an enjoyable time.  And there is a nice mixture of age ranges. So oldies like me can feel comfortable mixing with a y0unger crowd, without feeling like I’m standing out.
