We are excited with the changing seasons and this is reflected on our specials board. We take time to source what we cook from local Cornish producers, fishermen, artisanal food makers, and purveyors of specialty ingredients. Our deliveries arrive daily. We champion fresh!Homemade Bread is out of our oven by 11.30 every day and it’s not unusual for us to bake twice a day!We have a professional kitchen, and we like to use our skills, we make our own sauces, butcher our meat and fish, prepare and cook to order and serve it to you in a wonderfully relaxed environment either in our dining room or the bar (or on the patio weather permitting).Our dining room seats 40 people and we can cater for private luncheons, dinners or buffets for various celebrations including small weddings and anniversaries.
