Intimate dining with seriously good food.

The Old Bank is like that cozy little secret you can't believe you’ve been missing. David Savage raved about the Fowey mussels with Nduja and cider, and with a menu like that, who can blame him? The intimate space and brilliant service make it feel like a special occasion every time. Gill Wootton called the food stunning, and with a young, talented team in the kitchen, it’s clear they know what they’re doing.

Emilia S and other patrons echoed the praises, highlighting the juicy roast chicken and the creative tapas-style menu. It's a social way to eat; just grab a few dishes and share them around. And if you’re in the area, booking is a smart move. You’ll want to secure your spot at this gem.
