Old Quay House, Fowey.

In keeping with the narrow streets of Fowey, one long narrow restaurant in the Old Quay house.....

leads out on to a terrace that provides a constantly changing view as the river traffic passes just feet away....

from the comfort of your table......

including the unlikely juxtaposition of a steam slipper against the backdrop of a UK Border patrol boat making her way up the river.....

eating can be enjoyed inside at the table or out on the terrace, the menu is chocker with local produce (smoked duck in the foreground), the portions generous, the service impeccable - the moules mariniere with big, fat juicy Fowey mussels just perfect. The head chef, aptly named Ben Bass, champions local produce where possible to produce dishes with heavily influenced by the best in traditional french cooking - shades of his time spent with Raymond Blanc.
