The Cornish Barn Restaurant & Bar

The Cornish Barn is the restaurant, bar and smokehouse of the Artist Residence hotel at 20 Chapel Street in Penzance, a revitalised Georgian coaching inn. The cooking is built on Cornish produce and leans on small plates and meats from its own smokehouse, with dishes such as Middle Eastern spiced scallops, honey roast beets with feta and balsamic, and smoked sirloin steak. The bar keeps craft beers and wines from local independent vineyards alongside a long shelf of gins and spirits. It opens seven days a week from breakfast through to dinner, with lunch service at the weekend. Dogs are welcome. Out the back is a beer garden that comes into its own in summer, with barbecues and a ping pong table. The hotel itself has boutique rooms with freestanding baths, exposed beams and a wood burner in some. It suits hotel guests, couples wanting a relaxed dinner and anyone who likes smoked meat and small plates in an informal setting.
