Featured Plymouth Restaurants
1. Àclèaf at Boringdon Hall
British, Modern restaurant in Plympton
Boringdon Hall - PL7
Highly rated in feedback this year, this well-reputed destination – a raised gallery in a five-star hotel converted from a 16th-century manor house just outside Plymouth – tweaked its formula somewhat in July 2025, a couple of months after our annual diners’ poll had concluded. As well as its existing four-course format, there’s a new seven-course tasting menu curated by head chef Scott Paton, dedicated to ‘heritage flavours’ and ‘hyper-seasonal produce’ (for £180 per person).
2. HonkyTonk Wine Library
British, Modern restaurant in Plymouth
2 North East Quay, Sutton Harbour - PL4
“A wine bar with amazing character and great food” – Zoe Brodie & Fitz Spencer’s wine shop/deli overlooking Sutton Harbour offers some “fantastic small plates and sharing boards” – including ‘Fitzy’s Fat Boy Board’, which comprises pretty well the whole menu for £130.
3. Thirty One
restaurant in Plymouth
31 Stonehouse Street - PL1
“What a fantastic new restaurant in Plymouth!” Chef Lee Calver made his November 2023 debut as patron alongside partner Chloe Lillicrap in the venue formerly occupied by well-known Rock Salt Cafe and Brasserie (RIP). The former Navy chef is aiming to provide ‘relaxed fine dining’ with an affordable brasserie-style menu. Fans say they “should be very proud of what they’re doing: the food is excellent, obviously a lot of thought goes into their menu and attention to detail is wonderful”. Top Tip – “Sunday lunches are outstanding value and delicious”.
