The Bucket of Blood – Hayle

A Legendary Pub with a Gruesome Past

According to local legend, the pub got its name centuries ago when the landlord pulled a bucket from the well, and it didn’t contain water… The body of a murdered smuggler/tax man had been dumped down the well, giving the inn its name and a pretty gruesome legend.

Under new management, the old pub in Phillack serves excellent food and a wide choice of drinks. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, you’ll love our welcoming atmosphere and our commitment to quality.

Choose from our cosy interior (mind  your head!)  or an outdoor terrace.
