Oliver's 'the eatery', FalmouthIntent on ‘bringing the fun back into food’, Oliver’s is found in Falmouth and does the seaside town proud. If you’re after a taste of something extra special during a stay in self-catering Cornwall accommodation, Oliver’s is just the place. Serving local produce and a daring menu created with skill, the owners of Oliver’s have the experience to cook with flair! Look out for the daily specials too. Chef and owner, Ken, has worked at The Dorchester in Mayfair alongside Gordon Ramsey, and his passion shines through in his cooking. It's best to book though! |
The Lifebuoy Cafe, FoweyFor a refreshing and informal cafe during a stay in Cornwall accommodation, bear The Lifebuoy Cafe in mind. This fun, happy cafe is a real favourite and it’s a great way to enjoy the local fish in an informal atmosphere. With locally-sourced Fowey fish, even the cafe’s meats, bread and eggs are produced in the area – so it offers a true taste of Cornwall! Number one for Fowey on TripAdvisor, the cafe is dog-friendly, so bear it in mind during a walk with your pet – and there’s a take-away service available too. |

Paul Ainsworth at No 6, PadstowAt number three in the reviews it’s Paul Ainsworth at No 6, and it’s been heralded as the best food in Padstow and Rock! With a great location in the centre of Padstow and an impressive decor, the restaurant is striking, exciting and won’t disappoint. The imaginative menu is based around Great British theme, and there are one or two surprises if you’re feeling brave. The perfect place to try something new during a self-catering holiday in Cornwall, this quirky restaurant is as much an experience as somewhere to enjoy a meal.

The Wheelhouse, FalmouthIf you love seafood then this is THE Cornwall eatery for you. Second favourite with the TripAdvisor gang, The Wheelhouse in Falmouth has a loyal following! This cafe has a cosy feel, and as it’s not very big it’s worth reserving a table to be on the safe side. That said, this shellfish restaurant has proved so popular that it was even mentioned in The Guardian in 2010. The Wheelhouse has twinkling fairy lights, and a determination to use locally-sourced fish to its best. The menu’s dishes are intended for sharing, and the scallops are renowned! |
