Cornwall is packed full of delicious delis, culinary creations, and fantastic food. During your visit thereโ€™s plenty for you to try!

Take a look at the Choose Cornish video and our list of some of our favourite local producers, farm shops and farmerโ€™s markets, below.

Farm shops

Lobbโ€™s Farm Shopย at Heligan โ€“ย aย huge range of local produce can be found at Lobbโ€™s Farm Shop. Take your picks from a selection of meats, cheeses, preserves, bread, fruits, and vegetables. Thereโ€™s also a fantastic deli.

Cornish Food Boxย โ€“ anย award-winning company run by sisters Tor Amran and Lucy Jones features the very best food from Cornish producers. The delicious delights include freshly baked bread, jams, cheeses, curry sauces, puddings, pies and more. Visit them in Truro or order online for delivery to Bosinver.

Grampound Produce Market โ€“ last Saturday of the month, 10am-1pm

Specialities

Cornish Pastyย โ€“ you canโ€™t come to Cornwall without trying an amazing Cornish Pasty! Itโ€™s a matter of Cornish Pride and personal taste, but we recommend Roweโ€™s bakery in St Austell, Pearnโ€™s Pasties in Stickerโ€™s Post Office, or a hand-made pasty from a local butcher.

Butchersย โ€“ we highly recommend the multi-award winning Charlieโ€™s Butchers in Tywardreath, as well as Kittows of Holmbush (located near St Austell).

Fresh Fishย โ€“ Cornwall has a lot of coastline, so itโ€™s no surprise that the seafood is excellent here! Thereโ€™s nothing better than freshly caught fish, and Mevagissey is the closest place to go. Meet the fishermen and buy it straight from Mevagissey Wet Fish on the quay!ย Alternatively you can order online fromย Wing of St Mawesย and have your selection delivered to Bosinver.

Ice Creamย โ€“ aย holiday isnโ€™t a holiday without an ice cream or two! Try outย Roskillyโ€™s Ltdย on the beautiful Lizard peninsular for tasty treat. Or tryย Callestick Farmโ€™sย amazing ice creams near Truro.
