Experience Plymouth’s best cosy dining spots for winter and beyond.

Whether you’re searching for a warm pub with an open fire, an intimate Michelin-star restaurant, or a quirky bistro, Plymouth offers inviting options for every taste and occasion. 

From locally sourced ingredients to welcoming atmospheres that shelter you from the chill, this guide features eateries loved by both locals and visitors, perfect for festive get-togethers, hearty Sunday roasts, and winter comfort food.

                                

Àclèaf at Boringdon Hall

Indulge in intimate luxury at the Michelin Star Àclèaf at Boringdon Hall. Àclèaf , which means Oak Leaf in Old English, offers locally sourced food in an elegant setting, where head chef Scott Patton promises a gastronomic journey with a unique four-course meal.          

                          

Fisherman's Arms

Dine by the roaring fire in what is reputedly the second oldest pub in Plymouth at the Fisherman's Arms. Dishing up fresh popular pub classics at The Barbican, the venue is a cosy spot to head to. A warm, welcoming atmosphere is guaranteed with every visit.

           

The Waterfront Pub

Settle down with a drink and relax with unrivalled views of Plymouth Sound from The Waterfront Pub on Plymouth Hoe. The pub underwent a makeover in the Winter of 2023 and offers comfortable dining in a welcoming environment. Keep warm by the bar, or enjoy a hot drink on the outside terrace. This pub has it all.

                    

The Odd Wheel 

Escape to a peaceful coastal setting at The Odd Wheel in Wembury. This charming countryside pub is filled with cosy touches, from its glowing log burner to its comfy seating and seasonal festive décor. Their menu is fully homemade using delicious local produce, and their much-loved Sunday roasts are a real highlight. It's the perfect pitstop after a long walk along Wembury beach. 

                 

Salumi 

Spread across three levels, the popular Salumi offers a delightful ambience and great dining options this winter.

Their popular bagels are hit with the locals, while Sunday Roasts, including the delicious roast beef sirloin, are always worth a try. The accommodating team provide a fantastic atmosphere in the qwerky venue which is conveniently located between the city centre and the seafront.       

             

Cosy Club

It would be rude not to include the aptly named 'Cosy Club' in this feature. Situated in the popular Drake Circus, The Barcode complex, its stunning chandeliers and luxury furniture create the perfect atmosphere to enjoy brunch, lunch, dinner or one of their gorgeous cocktails.

                        

Jolly Jacks 

Dine beside the boats at the Mayflower Marina in the warm and welcoming bistrot of Jolly Jacks. The dog-friendly venue offers a relaxed dining experience with views spanning across the water to the Royal William Yard. It is the perfect location for a get-together, whether that be a big brunch to gear you up for the day or a mouthwatering Sunday roast dinner.
