The dinner was an intimate affair for just the two of us and the Sunday lunch was for a group of four. In both cases the atmosphere matched the occasion. The evening meal was as usual for the restaurant but the Sunday lunch only happens approximately twice a month. It is very special and well worth looking out for. Whatever you choose you can be sure of a great experience. Booking is essential.

Nigel takes great pride in his cooking and Debbie is so correct in her service without being the least bit stuffy as you can find in other top restaurants. The combination is a perfect and incredibly relaxed lunch. Nigel came out at the end of service and it was great to talk to the chef. If you have not tried one of Nigel’s Sunday specials, I understand that there are still some spaces left for the two dates in August. Check the website for details.

For those who know their wines, it has one of the best , well balanced and value for money wine lists around. Service is impeccable and supports the intimate atmosphere that has been created in this former pub just a relatively short walk from the centre of Truro. For a special celebration or one of Nigel’s occasional Sunday roasts (check the website) it is well worth seeking out. Booking is essential.
