New Yard

Top choice


Run by a new chef, Jeff Robinson, this upmarket bistro on the Trelowarren Estate is passionate about local sourcing: fish comes from a Cadgwith boat, meat is from Warrens in Launceston, and most veg is grown on the estate. The converted barn space is light and airy, and the food bang on trend – artfully presented and flavoured with foraged ingredients.
