The Living Space

Really bad experience here. Unfortunately we came here as a Christmas present as part of the Spa Dine deal. We were hoping to do this deal regularly as locals but will not be returning. The service in this restaurant was awful. Seated with no menus for 15 minutes, food arrived before drinks, we had to remind the staff to get them, starters only cleared when we purposely stared at a waitress to get her attention, main course plates were left dirty on the table for 35 minutes, when they were finally cleared one of the plates was still left, we asked for dessert menus which never arrived. The final plate was only cleared after we eventually gave up and found a manager. We ended up requesting our pre paid deserts to be packaged up so we could just leave as we had been sat for so long. As we complained we received a drink each complimentary which in hindsight doesn’t make up for such poor service. Unfortunately there were many staff working, and not many tables occupied at all the staff just didn’t do anything! We could see other diners getting up to go and ask if they could pay as no one was seeing to them either. Disappointing as we found out the had been a manager in there the whole time who then insisted this never usually happens. Doubtful.

Beautiful restaurant with stunning views. Food was absolutely delicious and staff were attentive and friendly. Would be better if were able to book beforehand but worth the trip down here to check. Only additional feedback was the kids menu is a little limited but found something he would eat.

Nice relaxed atmosphere- with a fantastic sea view. Good range of dished, which all tastes delicious. Service was friendly

My wife and I are massive foodies and eating out is almost a religion to us. We've been to the Living Space number of times and it just gets better and better. We only had lunch this time and ordered Ndjua Burrata and Satay chicken. Both were incredible. We come to the Watergate Bay Padstow area quite a few times a year and we'll definitely be making the Living Space a permanent for dinner fixture on all our visits.

I have been dining at this restaurant for 15 years and have spent a lot of money on their fantastic service and food during that time. However, when I visited today, I was surprised to learn that we had to pay for our food and drinks before even having the chance to eat them. The service was lacking, as the waitress seemed embarrassed and couldn't provide a justification for this new policy. Despite this, the restaurant continues to charge premium prices.
