Our Story

---

By Simon Hobbs & George Buckley

At the age of 21 I was given the opportunity to follow my dream and Lease the bar and restaurant at Tintagel Brewery, coming out of covid restrictions in May 2021. After working nonstop throughout covid I was in the fortunate position to do so, I dived straight in with much to learn and improve as we progressed. 

Fast Forward to November 2022, my best friend, George Buckley joined our kitchen team. After his small business in Camelford, Nom Nom Gourmet Takeaway was forced to close, due to the squeezing financial pressures that the post lock down hospitality crisis caused. 

This is when the Bar & Bistro as we know it Today was born. Both myself and Geroge, now both only 24-year-old, have a clear vision in mind for our establishment.  

An award-winning restaurant with one goal in mind. To stand out in North Cornwall, to be recognised as one of the best in the area. Flipping the idea of a brewery on its head. Serving exquisitely prepared dishes using the amazing  produce that Cornwall has to offer. Keeping Province by using the quality real ale, produced in the brewery next door, in as many of our dishes as possible.
