Source Kitchen

Source Kitchen is a cosy and relaxed restaurant and bar tucked away on a quiet cobbled street in St Ives, Cornwall. The husband-and-wife team behind the place take pride in showcasing the best of Britain’s farmers, fishermen, and artisan producers by serving thoughtfully sourced, seasonal dishes. The menu reflects a blend of European and Middle Eastern influences but is firmly rooted in local ingredients, with fresh dayboat fish, regenerative farm meats, and plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Plates are designed for sharing, so you can enjoy a variety of flavours, from Cornish oysters and mussels to rich grass-fed beef and delicate seafood dishes. The atmosphere is informal and welcoming, making it a brilliant spot for those who appreciate good food in a laid-back setting.

Alongside the delicious food, Source Kitchen offers a well-curated wine list featuring UK and European wines, plus creative cocktails like their famed Cornish Espresso Martini made with local vodka and coffee. The venue is suited to food lovers keen on sustainable, seasonal dining and friendly enough for casual lunches, early evening meals, or a Sunday roast feast. With its intimate setting and a focus on quality and locality, it’s perfect for anyone wanting a genuine taste of Cornwall’s rich culinary scene.
