Culture is definitely a "bit of an event"!
A really calm, tranquil space (with space for 25 or so), its almost like visiting a life long friend for a dinner party.
Service was welcoming, relaxed, personal but most importantly there was such a clear passion for the project / values that Culture wants to foster and support.
The food was excellent - cooked fabulously, offering interesting and sometimes surprising combinations! We were rather indulgent and opted for the wine paring and cheese (and we'd advise you do the same!)
All in all a great evening out!
3 couples went for 3 siblings birthdays and it was a very special treat. No only was the 7 course tasting menu and wine flight amazing, but the service and experience was as good as I've had. It wasn't cheap, but there was just one sitting with everyone being served together. We arrived at 7pm and didn't leave until nearly 10:30, so it was a long evening but we never felt like we were waiting and the time flew by. We WILL do it again and would recommend it to anyone.
Myself and my partner went to Culture for our anniversary and birthdays. The experience was great. Hilton and Bobby made us feel very welcome. The food was delicious, well prepared and thought out. Further to this I like that they source their food from local businesses and keep sustainability and the forefront. I would gladly recommend Culture to anyone.
Second visit to Culture, loved the meal, the relaxed atmosphere and the personal service from all the staff.
The food was delicious, every course was flavoursome and perfect portions. The flurry of snacks, settled us into the journey for the evening.
I loved the bread course using Williams Grains and the monk fish particularly, the fish melted in the mouth.
The Grampound Hills duck egg and grains was so tasty.
The lamb dish was delicious and so full of flavour and texture.
Then the desert was a perfect chocolatey end to the most perfect journey.
We took the wine flight this time, every wine complemented the dishes.
I am looking forward to visiting again in September.
FANTASTIC! Best meal I have ever had (I’m nearly forty).
If you love truly locally sourced, freshly created food and a gorgeous seasonal menu, try it. Not only are Hylton & Bobby amazing hosts, the food was out of this world. My wife and I will be coming back.
Just finished the dinner journey and It was amazing! I couldn’t thank the chef enough for the delicious food and also how welcoming the two men were, such a great experience and very well planned! Absolutely love it 100% recommended! Thank you again guys!

Our set tasting menu at Culture really was a Journey through Cornwall. Each dish was immaculately prepared and presented, with local ingredients shining as the stars of the show. Incredible experience!
The journey menu at Culture completely blew our minds. Locally sourced produce and foraged ingredients used to make incredible dishes. The wine flight was beautifully paired for each dish too. We will be visiting again for sure!!
Amazing lunch at Culture, a must try for foodies visiting Falmouth. Service and Journey Menu were sublime.
We had such an incredible experience at Culture last weekend. The ambience, the concept and the service were phenomenal and the main event was the food.
Wonderful use of fresh produce and so cleverly put together - and the wine pairing was a really great value way of trying new wines that went perfectly with each course. Thank you!
We celebrated a birthday at culture and really enjoyed the experience! Great flavour combinations and loved the food journey through Cornwall. Attentive service and great to chat about the producers and locally foraged foods. Loved the wine flight too.
We are on holiday in Cornwall and celebrating my wife's 50th so I was keen to find somewhere where we could enjoy a special meal that was a bit different. And while it may put some people off that the menu doesn't explicitly tell you what you will be eating. You have to remember that this is really the point of this type of meal! It is food theatre, and part of the experience is the suspense of not knowing exactly what you will be eating until it arrives. Personally we loved it. The chef clearly prepared significantly in advance so that he and the maitre d could spend time after food preparation to explain the source of the food and method of preparation. Both were professional and the food was to a very high standard. The wine flight is highly recommended and closely complements the dishes as intended. An excellent experience and highly recommended.
Real gem of a place. Hidden away down a passageway, this 24-cover delight is wonderfully managed and enjoyed by the 3-person team, dedicated to sustainability in every sense, including their own quality of life. This comes through in spades in the food - every thoughtfully crafted course inspired by local suppliers is truly innovative such as the confit mackerel with pickled cucumber and slooooow roast lamb with beets and stunning jus entirely created from highly localised ingredients. Amazing personal service - we really appreciated the teamwork & sheer joy of their work. This team really deserves every accolade and especially their Michelin green star. I’d love to see them inspire others to run more restaurants like this.
Had a very special experience at Culture! First time in Cornwall on a trip with my mom and couldn’t miss this spot - it easily exceeded all of our expectations. Variety that kept us engaged for the time we were there, met with sweet hospitality made it a memorable time - if you get the chance to speak with the owners, absolutely do it, it will make your time there even more enjoyable to learn about their journey and just get to know them, super sweet and talented people doing some very cool and sustainable things.
We had a wonderful evening at Culture enjoying some delicious locally sourced ingredients presented beautifully whilst telling a story along the way. Culture's strong local ethos and intimate surroundings made it the perfect evening. We can't wait to visit again. Congratulations Hylton & Petro!
Gastronomic tasting journey. totally new tastes - fresh, local,vibrant intriguing mixtures & textures. Chilled & personable service. Fab experience
Incredible experience at this fantastic restaurant. Loved the stories behind each of the dishes. Nice ambience. Food was delicious. Great duo of a waiter and chef running the place. I have a gluten intolerance and husband has a shellfish allergy and the chef accommodated this despite it being a set menu. Would definitely come again.
What a delight, the whole ethos of Culture is to be admired and enjoyed - great atmosphere, such a welcome that we'll be obliged to do the 600mile round trip again next year just to see what treats they are preparing.
But please only tell your best friends...😄
Thank You so much for an unforgetable evening. Amazing what you created from local products, for us it was one of Cornwalls highlights, difficult to eat better in ranges of fine dining!
