Michelin **

Restaurant Nathan Outlaw, Port Isaac
Nathan Outlaw's Michelin 2* restaurant at the top of the village is a smart yet casual restaurant in a great headland location – the views from the first floor dining room are stunning. No-choice set menus focus on ultra-fresh fish and shellfish landed at the nearby harbour. Classical combinations are very carefully crafted, keeping the focus firmly on the main ingredient.
