The Navy Inn in Penzance is the kind of pub you have to be told about or you would never know what awaits you. It’s unassuming from the outside and tucked away on a quiet street but once inside its true nature is revealed; professional and knowledgeable staff, a well-stocked premium bar, great wine list and a secret al fresco area. It’s AA-rosetted with a passionate and experienced chef at the helm. Keir Meikle has a background with top establishments such as The Savoy and Antony Worrall Thompson. He has turned a run-down local into a relaxed and informal pub restaurant with original wooden floors, navy blue and off-white décor, a mixture of Moroccan and high-backed leather chairs and pews. Local artists’ work is also on display. Food-wise, Keir and second chef Jay produce extraordinary renditions of pub classics with a smattering of more modern and unusual dishes. Keir is really motivated by the quality of local produce available and says it’s a joy to cook with. There’s a consistently good Sunday lunch with beef from ‘St Ives Beef’, huge Yorkshires and properly made gravy. Superb vegetarian dishes which are exciting, amazing desserts and everything home made right down to the chips.Awards | 1 AA Rosette | Cornish Accredited Restaurant
