Cliftons provides this selection of Truro’s restaurants and pubs which cater to suit all food preferences. Please mention our name if you patronize any of these places to eat.

The Rising Sun

Set on rising-sunMitchell Hill, a short route from our Guesthouse (through Agar Road), in a quiet historical quarter, The Rising Sun is the hub of the local community and a destination for visitors to the county.

At The Rising Sun they offer superb food, showcasing local, seasonal produce. Tom, a hands-on owner and dedicated chef is incredibly knowledgable on seasonal produce and writes his menus accordingly. They work in a very flexible way, changing dishes and menus regularly to coincide with, not only seasonal produce but also the very best quality Cornwall has to offer.

The Longstore Lemon Street

The Longstore on Truro’s historic Lemon Street is the place where you can enjoy dinner or drinks any night of the week. Wednesday to Friday they’re also open for lunch, including their set lunch menu options. On Saturdays they open early for their brunch classics and bottomless brunches. And then on Sunday lunchtimes, they serve their famous Longstore Roasts.

Hooked

Hooked | Cliftons | Bed & Breakfast | Truro's Premier Guest HouseHooked’s rosette-awarded kitchen focuses on classic dishes with a modern twist. Or sometimes a twist just isn’t needed. They believe that simple food is often the best. Especially when it’s fresh, Cornish and in the hands of our talented chefs. With a small but passionate team, Hooked in the City has quickly become one of the top seafood restaurants in Cornwall.

Kathmandu PalaceKathmandu Palace | Cliftons | Bed & Breakfast | Truro's Premier Guest House

Found in the heart of Truro and shadowed by the Cathedral, the Kathmandu Palace is well known for its welcoming hospitality and excellent healthy cuisine. It is a family run business which has won many awards and is a firm local favourite for its Restaurant. Nepalese cuisine is a combination of subtle tastes in flavours: ginger, garlic, cumin, coriander, chillies, turmeric, etc subtle, refreshingly different and lighter than its Indian counterpart.

Pandora Inn

When you visit the Pandora, it’s easy to forget you’re in the 21st century. Its spectacular setting on the edge of Restronguet Creek (near Mylor Bridge)  is timeless. Parts of the Inn date back to the 13th Century and, with its flagstone floors, low-beamed ceilings and thatched roof it’s not difficult to believe that little has changed since that time.

Publicans John Milan and Steve Bellman have been at the helm of the Pandora since 1999. Their attention to detail in everything – from the food and service to the décor and furniture – has established the Pandora as an award-winning pub that aims to give you an enjoyable and memorable experience whenever you visit.

Chef John Poole uses the freshest, local, seasonal produce. There’s an extensive wine list and traditional real ales from St Austell Brewery.
