A multi award-winning North Cornwall craft brewery will officially reopen the St Tudy Inn on Saturday 4 December.
Harbour Brewing took over the renowned country pub back in the summer, opening the bar just for drinks to quench the thirst of locals and visitors alike while it recruited the right team to fulfil its vision.
Eddie Lofthouse, Harbour Brewing’s managing director, said: “We’re excited to finally be reopening this beautiful village pub and its boutique accommodation. Located at the heart of the St Tudy community, it holds a legacy as a real foodie destination, and we now have a fantastic team in place to deliver the outstanding, local but accessible, food offering we’re striving for here.
“Our experienced head chef has been working hard to create our unique menus, which will pair well with our own Harbour beers and extended drinks list.
“We can’t wait to start welcoming people to dine by our roaring fires, and have people clinking pints in time for Christmas.”
At the helm of the kitchen is new head chef, Siaka Touray. He joins the pub with an impressive background in hospitality, working at Harvey Nichols’ Fifth Floor Café for 10 years, as well as other London establishments before relocating to Cornwall in 2014. He’s worked for Rick Stein, and has most recently been the head chef of Pilchards at Port Gaverne for the last three years.
Siaka said: “We’ve designed the menus to have some of the classics you’d expect from a rural country pub, but with a modern twist which will be unique to St Tudy Inn.
“Our team is ready to go with some great dishes we think our diners will love, and we’re proud to be championing local Cornish produce throughout.”
The main menu will feature braised pork belly, Harbour battered cod, rib-eye steak, whole baked Cornish sole, and a sticky toffee pudding with clotted cream. Bar snacks include ‘nduja scotch egg, scampi with tartar sauce, pigs in blankets with honey and mustard, and goat’s cheese bonbon with squash and sage, as well as a club sandwich and a Cornish cheese toastie.
Diners can celebrate the festive season at St Tudy Inn this year, with three course Christmas party and New Year’s Eve set menus available.
The pub also has four en-suite rooms for bed and breakfast, and has plans to convert two more rooms above the bar in the new year.
