Eating Out

Whether you are looking for a five course meal, a cheeky cocktail or simply a snack on the run Truro has all the best.

Cornwall’s culinary heritage has been commonly linked to the Cornish pasty and coastal treats such as fish and chips. However over the years Truro can boast an ever expanding range of eating and drinking experiences, making it one of the best gourmet destinations in Cornwall.

What makes Truro a special gourmet destination is the shear diversity of its offer – from Cornish celebrity chefs creating top quality dishes using the finest local ingredients through to a punnet of chips or pasty on Lemon Quay to refuel during a day’s shopping.

There are plenty of places for families to eat out and during the summer months a selection of Truro’s eateries can offer outside seating areas to relax in the sun.

If you’re planning to catch a show at the Hall for Cornwall, many restaurants also offer pre-theatre menus.
