Bar 7

We held our wedding reception and weekend at the Seven Stars. We cannot stress enough how incredible Kiren, Darryl and the team were at making our big day special. Nothing was too much effort, and Kiren always treated any challenges with a sense of humour - you are an amazing human and St Austell are lucky to have you! Thank you for all of your help, especially when we were facing challenges with our ceremony venue, and you immediately just brought me a glass of cold white wine to calm me down! You are a legend! The food at the Seven Stars is second to none. I already know the venue well, and that the food is great, we've never had a bad meal here! We ate here with our wedding guests over the course of the weekend, and were blown away with the quality of the food. It's locally sourced where possible, and Darryl makes incredible home made soups and fresh cheesecake! I also had curry and fish and chips, calamari too over the course of the weekend and everything was perfect. Our wedding breakfast was a 3 course meal, everything was beautiful. Canapes extremely filling, and evening buffet was not your standard 'iceland' frozen affair - home made scotch eggs, home made slaw, houmous etc - really top quality. All guests commented on how good it was and how generous the portions were. Breakfast is beautiful - freshly baked croissants, juices and milk in ice, fresh fruits, breads etc, and a great cooked menu including pancakes and the best breakfast bap you'll ever eat! Coffee also always fab. One of the reasons we wanted to have our reception here was the beautiful ballroom which has been modernised with beautiful lighting and glitter ball, which made the evening so sparkly! Staff helped us decorate the venue too which I was not expecting as we booked the venue to do our own decor, and we were so grateful for the help and expertise in setting up the room! In addition to this, the assembly room at the front of the venue upstairs was incredible to get ready in, and bridal party were able to have breakfast privately up here whilst getting ready. There is beautiful natural light at the front of the room. Parking is easily available for the weekend booked in advance over the road at Morrisons very cheaply. It's located close to the river and bridge which is great for photos. The staircase looks very grand as you walk up to the ballroom. Ballroom also has a private terraced area and own bar upstairs. We had Agatha Christie room as our bridal suite which has a jacuzzi bath, stunning four poster bed with tapestry, and seated area by the window to overlook Totnes. There is also another seating area which was very handy to open wedding gifts, and the lovely housekeeping ladies decorated our bed with fresh rose petals which was such a beautiful touch. Thank you, so much! We'll definitely book again to celebrate our anniversaries, enjoy the venue and relieve our day. THANK YOU! We just want to say thank you to St Austell and all of the staff who helped make our wedding day so beautiful. We really can't wait to drop in soon. Kelly & Cian O'Brien

Had another amazing Sunday lunch cleared our plates! Vegs' were perfect, not soggy or under cooked plenty of meat (we had beef) and an extra pot of gravy! No need for pud, although they look amazing. All staff were really friendly and seemed genuinely happy to see their customers. Another visit will be made next time we are there 😋😊

The service is now becoming extinct slowly slowly. Apart from a few very nice people who will go out of the way to serve us, the others and newer ones do not know about service at all. Let us remember, the very reason we go out is to treat ourselves. Please enhance table service and be friendly when the clients order and take water, glasses, cuttlery etc. and the drinks and the food to their table. This is a hospitality place. It is the least you can do regarding service. Thank you to the people who have been wonderful for a few years now and have saved the day.
