Àclèaf

★ Michelin££££Modern Cuisine

The impressive Boringdon Hall Hotel plays host to this cosy, intimate restaurant, which sits under wooden beams within the former minstrels’ gallery. The building itself dates back to the Domesday book and still exudes a historic feel. Prime seasonal ingredients feature in exciting modern dishes which are refined yet restrained and demonstrate great attention to detail. The range of internationally influenced flavours are knowledgably balanced, aptly demonstrated by the cured hamachi with subtle yuzu ponzu.

Barbican Kitchen

££International

An informal eatery in the Plymouth Gin Distillery (where gin was once distilled for the Navy). Brasserie menus offer a good choice of simply cooked dishes, with classic comfort food to the fore; vegetarians are well catered for.

Fletcher's Restaurant

££Modern British

It may be just around the corner from the Theatre Royal, but this warmly run restaurant is so much more than a convenient spot to eat in before curtain-up. From the good value lunch menu to the à la carte, the eponymous chef-owner, who is a local himself, knows how to cater for all tastes – and it’s clear that plenty of care and attention go into every dish.
