Food at THE PIG-at Harlyn Bay
We’ve got an obsessive commitment to home-grown and local produce: simple food done well
It’s all about the Kitchen Garden
The Kitchen Garden is the beating heart of our operation at THE PIG-at Harlyn Bay. Everything is driven by our Gardeners, Forager and Chef – they grow and find the food – the chef then creates the menu; uncomplicated and simple British garden food, true to the micro seasons and with a real focus on simple and fresh flavours.
With an obsessive commitment to homegrown produce and a serious love of all-things local, the garden and kitchen teams will work hand in hand to create our 25-mile menu, which will be supported by passionate local farmers and small producers, who supply anything that we cannot grow or produce ourselves.
Often called the UK’s food capital, four in every five people who visit Cornwall say the food and drink is one of the reasons they choose to visit. We think that Cornwall produces among the richest variety of top quality fresh produce from land and sea available anywhere in the country.
Fresh-from-the-harbour seafood, award-winning English wines and spirits, hyper-local cheeses, fantastic meats and even saffron! Did you know that Saffron buns and cake are as much as part of Cornish fodder as pasties and clotted cream!
Our commitment to a 25-mile menu not only means we support and celebrate Cornwall's local suppliers, but means we can be 100% honest on the provenance of our ingredients.
