This is the richest, most pleasant restaurant I’ve been to. I ordered the steak. The steak is to DIE FOR!! It has such a rich flavor and I bet I can eat 3 steaks in one sitting. Lots of options for deserts, and my friend really liked the sticky toffee pudding. We really DEVOURED everything we ordered. Get a nice cup of tea.
It may seem small at first but it’s actually a lot bigger than you would expect. It’s got a bar as well, if you want some drinks! They even give you little easy-to-bite mints at the end.
The waitresses are extremely kind and helpful and they will provide extra information for your benefits.
Also this place has the most amazing fries/chips!!! We asked them how they get it to that sort of texture and level and they happily told us. We will try it. Definitely will come here again for vacation!!!

Were it not for the sound of music coming up from the stairs it would be quite easy to miss the entrance to St Ives Cellar Bistro - which would be a shame. Chandeliers in the hallway leading to the stairs down into the restaraunt create an air of opulence and sophistication that's enforced when greeted at the entrance to the large dining room. Although below street level natural light is provided by a window at one end of the long room as the old venue is built on a steep incline overlooking the harbour. The polished boarded floor is furnished with polished wooden tables spaced to create a calm and uncluttered feel to the dining area.
We chose the grilled goats cheese to start, the herb encrusted hake for our main and the chocolate brownie for desert. We have dined at over a dozen restaraunts in St Ives and the food in the Cellar Bistro stands head and shoulders above the rest. The herb encrusted hake was amazing, perfectly seasoned and exploding with flavour. Every dish was beautifully presented. The chocolate brownie with salted caramel was breathtakingly fabulous! All the staff worked tirelessly as a team and still made time to engage in conversation at the tables when appropriate. Our whole evening was a superb, sophisticated yet friendly and down to earth experience and a culinary delight of the highest order. Simply fabulous!
Wonderful food. Service was good. I would certainly go back. Be sure to make a reservation.
We had dinner quite late there. It was very cozy and the service was good. The food was excellent! I especially recommend the sticky toffee pudding, which was to die for.
Four of us went to Cellar Bistro at the end of our holiday to St Ives, and we were not disappointed.
The service was impeccable, always attentive but never pushy. The food was outstanding, my wife and I had goats cheese to start and hake as a main course. Both courses were magnificent, the goats cheese was full of flavour without being overpowering and the hake delicate and tasty. We will be coming in on our next visit to St Ives. Well done Cellar Bistro, if I could have given more than 5☆, I would have done.
So glad I had booked in advance as we found throughout our stay in St Ives that unless you had booked a table you probably weren't going to find anywhere to dine in very easily!
The service, the ambience and most importantly, the food, was divine!
My partner and I shared the 'chicken supreme', the chicken was cooked beautifully and the sauce and potatoes were bursting with flavour. Also the sticky toffee pudding is to die for!
If it wasn't so far away, I'd visit all the time!
One of the best meals we've had in a while. The food was amazing and the service was top notch. I can see why this restaurant is so highly rated in the area.
We had 3 courses which can be seen in the photos. The portion sizes were good and the price was reasonable for the food quality you were getting. If you want a really cheap night out then this is not for you, you definitely get what you pay for here.
The restaurant is tucked away and can be difficult to find unless you knows its there. There is a nice ambience inside and I would definitely return if coming back to St Ives
We had a lovely appetiser and dessert wine date here! Cheeses on our cheese board were yummy, wine was delicious and the Black Forest sundae was decadent. A very romantic vibe too- highly recommend for a date night :-)
We were lucky to get a table as their website had no bookings available so worth emailing/calling to ask.
Had the set menu and overall the food was amazing, I can recommend the Hake and Roast Chicken.
The only let down was where we were sat, in the corner next to the window, as there seemed to be a load of flies attracted to the window. Sea view though!
Dessert I would probably give a miss next time as the Elderflower mascarpone pot was just overly sweet.
Hidden Gem !! This Is Must Try.....
Fantastic Food , Great Service and Lovely Setting.
