Cellar Bistro prides itself on friendly and welcoming customer service and a wonderful dining atmosphere. The restaurant is cosy & atmospheric with soft lighting and candles, you will feel equally at home in your best bib and tucker or a comfy pair of jeans!

Once again we had a fabulous evening. Great food, staff very professional and friendly. Lovely atmosphere. Love the new lounge area for pre/post dinner drinks. Always our first choice when eating out in St Ives. Genuine and passionate owners/staff who always give 100%.

We had an early booking so were seen to immediately and shown to a nice table in corner with the one only & only sea view. This was nice . Waitress was pleasant & very attentive. Food was amazing. My husband had the chicken in cream sauce & I had the sea bass both spectacular. We shared portion of green veg. We were both quite full so decided just to have coffee & a handmade truffle each afterwards .This was also fabulous. Woukd not hesitate to recommend.
