Dining
North Street Kitchen
In the busy months you might have to queue at this simple, trendy boat house conversion – but it’s well worth the wait. The menu is constantly changing as it’s informed by the freshest catch from nearby waters, with the array of seafood allowed to shine with a delicious purity thanks to the simplicity of the preparations. Fowey oysters are often a favourite, as is the signature brown crab rarebit. Owner Ethan cooks on his own and there’s an endearingly rustic, no-nonsense feel to the place.
