A substantial & much needed refurbishment project in recent years has awarded the restaurant with a stunning new interior.

The bistro is most definitely back. Gordon's doing it, Marco's doing it and we've been doing it for years. The first bistros originated from Paris and offered simple home cooked food to the public from basement kitchens plus wine and coffee at equally simple prices.

Our lunch and dinner menus, together with our daily specials' board, remain true to this ethos and some of our most popular dishes include beef bourguignon, steak and chips or a bowl of local Fal mussels. We also offer traditional dishes with a Bustophers' twist: The Bistro Burger with pancetta and Gruyere cheese or a starter of potted rabbit with carrot jelly.

Fixed plats du jour range from surf 'n' turf on a Wednesday to T-bone on a Friday and our best kept Sunday secret - roast beef.

Restaurant manager and experienced sommelier Tom Hancock is responsible for the informed selection of wines, spirits and cocktails and will advise you on what best complements your meal and palate, from a glass of lightweight organic Beaujolais to a heavyweight Argentinean blockbuster.

Our new state of the art open plan kitchen serves authentic modern British cuisine using the very best in seasonal Cornish produce.

Our chefs provide honest and reliable dishes maximising our position near the Cornish waters. Indeed the variety of seafood landed in Cornwall ensures our popular fish board is always brimming with an abundance of truly diverse fish and seafood.

Enjoy a morning cappuccino and a copy of the Daily Telegraph. Indulge in a cool steely dry glass of Chablis and steaming bowl of River Fal mussels over lunch.

In the afternoon relax in our landscaped courtyard with a pot of Tregothnan Estate Classic Tea. Treat a loved one to a romantic evening meal with a fine bottle of Burgundy, preferably Nuits St George. Throughout the day Bustophers meets the needs of the occasion.
