Menus

The Reef Knot Restaurant serves the best of Cornish sea-to-table cuisine. Sustainably caught fish, from our own dedicated fisherman Gareth, is landed daily at the quay at St Mawes and served alongside the finest local seasonal produce.

Our menus are a true celebration of Cornwall and offer an unforgettable culinary journey, with a strong emphasis on seasonal flavours, keeping true to our sustainability ethos.

Advance booking is recommended.
