The Cutty Sark has an informal pub style dining area on the upper level as well as more formal restaurant on the ground floor that is also available for private party hire.

I booked a table by phone and was surprised to find the Pub restaurant almost empty. We were worried whether this was because the food was not up to much but were in for a surprise.The roast lamb with vegetables we ordered was lovely and rich, very tasty.Quite a different experience from other Sunday roasts in town recently, which haven't been up to scratch one way or another, from lukewarm or uncrispy roast potatoes or swimming in gravy.We found out later that the Pub had only just restarted offering Sunday lunches.Definitely worth another visit or two.

More a dining experience than a restaurant. A beautiful menu of modern British cuisine with a European influence. Bustopher Jones also offers an extensive wine list to compliment the food with a unique selection of cocktails.

Great food and cocktails which all enjoyed. Glad booked table as very busy when we arrived. Good staff. Only issue was the wait after the starters, was informed about a delay with the one meal when ordered as it takes longer to cook but maybe that should have been taken into consideration when the starters went out. Bizarly that dish arrived 5mins before the others! Enjoyable night anyway. Would go back.Hello catsailor2014We would love to see you back and remember that we are always here to talk to you about issues that may arise during service whether it's an issue with the food or as you mention a timing issue.All your comments will be shared with the team and we appreciate the fact that you have taken the time to write a review and for mentioning that the night was enjoyable.

Serving the very best of local and home grown produce in the beautiful surroundings of tranquil lily ponds. A daily changing menu of classic British and European dishes with a select wine list.
Reviewed By Susan C
We were staying with friends in Truro who very kindly took us for lunch at Penrose Kitchen. It was a wet and miserable day and the restaurant didnât look particularly inviting from the outside. However, our friends also love good food and had dined there several times so we were still hopeful of a tasty lunch. As soon as we stepped inside we were warmly greeted by Sam and as we looked around were pleasantly surprised by the warm and cosy décor. Sam and her front of house team are friendly and helpful but not intrusive which can be a rarity. The food, particularly the first course of slow cooked lamb, was soft, tasty and absolutely perfect. We have eaten lamb on a couple of occasions in restaurants since our visit (including one with a Michelin star) and both my husband and I found this dish to be far superior and are using Benâs lamb as the benchmark. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and speaking to Ben after our lunch and had to be dragged away by our friends so that he and Sam could prepare for dinner that evening. I love everything they are doing here particularly keeping it local and sustainable and it was evident that Ben is very passionate about food. I have one regret â that this restaurant is more than 300 miles from home!

Nigel Tabb is the best chef in town and further afield for that matter. His menus are well crafted and brilliantly balanced. You will get excellent food cooked with passion and care. The same passion and care will be seen in the service you receive. The wine list is exceptional value for money with a selection of sensational offerings by the glass and by the bottle. This is a special dining experience not to be missed. Booking is essential.
