North Street Kitchen in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Lovely spot for lunch in Fowey with a great selection of small plates. Some of the barrels that you can sit on aren’t very well designed when actually trying to eat though, as there isn’t room for the plates, so try and sit at a table if you can. The frozen margaritas were delicious, so definitely get one if they’re on the menu!

A pure delight. I would definitely try the crab sandwiches. No more words needed, check it out yourselves. Beware, queuing guaranteed!

Stopped by for an early lunch and was lucky enough to get a seat. This is exactly what food should be - fresh local seasonal produce. Yes you pay a bit for this of course, but it’s worth every penny. Every dish was outstanding and you can feel the pride that is taken in every plate that is sent out. Good honest food, stunning location, a total and utter joy. Sharing plates restaurant and fish heavy menu but as a non fish eater there was certainly enough for me.

Exceptional food, easy service and interesting decor. Ht best picked anchovies I’ve ever had! Lovely bubble and crispy focaccia, everything coming g out the kitchen looked exceptional. Fair price for what it served!

This place never disappoints....lovely friendly service, food delivered promptly and it was obvious that they use really fresh ingredients. Every dish we chose was delicious. We love the rustic atmosphere and vibe. Well worth a visit if you haven't been before. Just a note you can not book a table so arrive early to avoid disappointment.

Brilliant. . Brilliant. . Brilliant. . Food ,concept, service and drinks with a fantastic cool atmosphere. . Cornwall at its best. . I’m a massive fan of this place and go every time I’m in Cornwall.. DONT pay attention to the new sayers on here with their negative reviews. . I think the fact you have to question to get a table every time it’s open says it all. . Anyone leaving a negative doesn’t understand the concept and quality and really should stick to going to chain restaurants and take any coupons they can muster. .

They need to update their google page as it says they are open and they are not. Been before and it was great………………………………………….,,,,,,,,,,….

Ate here twice on our stay in Fowey. Both times the service was a little indifferent, one waitress much friendlier and less offhand…as they add a ‘discretionary ‘ 12.5% for service to the bill this needs to be considered. Food is excellent however although a bit pricy as mentioned in other reviews but the flavour is all there and I loved every mouthful so am prepared to pay. Vibe is cool and ‘street-foody’ with an open kitchen and open to the road with a harbour view. Loved it really even if the wine glasses were too small ❤️

bad service awful food over priced £5 for small new potatoes a fish that was so small it should have been thrown bake in to have abit more free lifea total rip off avoid at all cost

Fantastic fresh food. Very relaxed and beautiful views. I love the vibe. Staff were so friendly. I will definitely visit again.

Really expected better - tiny tasteless drinks in tumblers at very high prices. The waitress seemed not to like customers and the portions were tiny for the price - what else can I say!

Great fish based dishes which differ every day dependant on the ingredients available. Everything freshly prepared to order here!

Great old warehouse building with open front and river view. Brick interior and sharing tables with an open kitchen make for a great vibe. Fabulous choice of seafood and fish options which are sharing/small type plates. Superb tasting food with a changing menu that literally changes during your visit. No seafood or fish restaurant is cheap so I don't know why so many posters 'complain' about the prices. The picture menu at the back, with prices can be seen from the street. I did find the 'water size glass' of beer at £3 not so good value but overall this is a great lunch restaurant and would return

Family of 5 ate here. Lovely fresh fish and seafood. Varied menu board which was ever changing whilst we sat and ate. We had between us battered hake in a bun, mackerel from the grill in green sauce, plaice, new pots and bread which was really tasty. The emphasis is on smaller plates and sharing. They’re only open at lunchtime, there’s no reservations, just turn up and wait, they’re dog friendly too

Food and is fresh and good but very dear for what it is and the small portion size. Didn’t feel at all valued as a customer and I got the impression that the staff were all at pains to just be really really cool. I think the place aspires to be laid back and chilled , trying to encapsulate the early Jamie Oliver wannabe Aussie vibe of relaxed dining prior to resuming beach life and hanging out with mates .

I was really excited to try North street kitchen after walking past a number of times and never being able to try it out. After a long car journey, we decided to go for a drink, it was myself, my boyfriend and we have a 9month old baby (she was in a carry strap on us) I have to say, we had one of the worst welcomes Iv had in a long time at a restaurant, the girl who we approached and asked if we could just have one of the bar stools for a drink, looked as if she wanted to turn us away, eventually she said we could have the bar stools at the end of the bar (next to the toilet and staff door) there wasn’t enough room to swing a cat, let alone 2 adults and a baby, there was however room at the other end of the bar, and when I asked it was possible to sit there, I got told (quite rudely) it was only for people eating. I was so close to saying forget it and walking out, but as I said, we had travelled far and just wanted a nice chilled drink. Luckily another member of staff came to serve us who was lovely, and made us feel a lot more welcome and actually asked if we wanted to move as there wasn’t much room where we were. That being said, the vibe is good at North street and I loved the interior, it’s just ashame the customer service by certain staff is so poor and because of this we won’t be returning.

A quick review for a quick lunch visit. I had seen this place online but had to stop in after passing impromptu for some oysters. The food, location, service and ambience were all perfect and I highly recommend NSK if you are anywhere near Fowey.

An amazing place down the far east end of Fowey. Such lovely, fresh food. I would highly recommend lunch here. Tapas style.

Truly stunning meal… fresh fresh fish, creative serves, stunning simplicity and heavenly marriages of flavour. Also, lovely friendly service and a great view. Not sure what more anyone could want. Rustic sharing tables, fish-heavy menu, but all heavenly. Well done team!

I really liked the “vibe” and wanted to for ages. I was really impressed with the service, the staff were attentive and friendly. However the portions in relation to the prices were a Micky take! £5. For six potatoes!? £5. One eighth of a bbq cabbage!? I except that fish is pricey but really? A prime example of as I seen you coming!

Fantastic food though as others have said it is pricey and small portions, however I cannot fault the service. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, especially with catering to diatery requirements, even willing to modify dishes by request. The oysters were absolutely fantastic as...

Had heard a lot about this place, so decided to go for lunch. Interior and location are great, very chilled London borough market vibes. BUT, what let it down for us was the value for money- VERY small portions for what you pay and definitely...

Nice food, friendly, unreasonably expensive. This lovely little set up is now in a garage, just on the walk out of town with a view of the river across a carpark It's nice but if you are even slightly concerned about money then avoid. This...

Chilled rustic vibe. Crab roll (£14) Delicious and just what we wanted. No bookings do you just have to wait. Place was bustling which was lovely, Highly recommended

Came across this delightful little foodie place by chance Very very tasty fish soup … bit pricy for lunch and the portion size was disappointing. The serving of wine was not advised on size on the drinks menu and honestly were the smallest I’ve ever...

More on an impulse stop really as it was raining and we were seeking shelter 🤣. Thought we’d may as well have a hot drink too as we dried out. The waitress informed us curtly that they don’t sell hot drinks as there are plenty...

Ambling around Fowey from the Mevagissey ferry and stumbled on this spot on 12. Looked interesting so gave it a go. Friendly staff explained the menu. Cod roe on toast was great as was the mackerel in green sauce. Informal wine supported the atmosphere and...

We had Cornish sole, simply but skilfully cooked on the grill with grilled cabbage and new potatoes. The price was reasonable for a high quality meal. The let down was the service. There was a set service charge of 12.5 %, so the servers presumably...

The food is okay but the portions are tiny and expensive. I don't mind paying well for good food and atmosphere but for me the cost is not justified at this place. The mussels come in a very small breakfast size bowl and they don't...

I can't believe the negative reviews - what did they expect, pub grub falling off a plate ? If you are not prepared to pay for quality head for the fish and chip or pasty shop. My meal was superb, satisfying for a lunch and...

Have just dined at North St kitchen and have not stopped raving how great it was..service attentive friendly excellent.We had anchovies and they were superb..then delicious cod roe pate..both dishes served with home made bread and then the Crab Roll. Good value for money with...

We wanted a light lunch, so chose fish soup with a side order of bread. Service was slow and disinterested. The soup was £9 for each very small bowl full. The croutons had dissolved into the soup. The taste of the soup was fine, just...

This is my second visit to North Street Kitchen in Fowey, and both times I have really enjoyed my food and experience. It’s a great concept, keeping it simple, using fresh seasonable ingredients and minimising waste! You may have to share a table, or you...

Loved this little gem of a place. Simple but well executed menu, with attentive friendly staff. Has a Jamie Oliver/industrial vibe about it. Had a mixture of dishes and all were great. Nothing fancy here, but if it’s decent seafood you want then it’s a...

Honestly one of the best Brunch spots I have ever been too. The staff are friendly, polite and very welcoming. The food menu is diverse and has a wide range to cater for everyone. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun - perfect for our Sunday...

One of the nicest places I have ever eaten. The food is sublime, the atmosphere is friendly and casual but the staff are incredibly well trained, know their menu (which changes weekly) and have a strong eye for detail. Jugs of ice cold beer and...

Arrogant staff, tiny portions (food and drink) and rip off prices. 3 of us and we had a g&t tiny served in a ‘school dinner type tumbler’ lots of ice gin of unknown origin and tonic of unknown origin but clearly draft or large bottle....

We almost skipped this place based on the reviews but we wanted to make our own minds up. We had great service and a lovely lunch. We would definitely recommend it and would definitely be back. I would only suggest that bread come with the...

Walked past this place on a trip to Fowey ..sun was shining and it looked inviting. Situated by the harbour we liked the look of the place as it had a laid back mediterranean feel to it. Five of us were seated at a communal...

Wish we'd read reviews before sitting down and ordering. This place is a joke. Their ethos seems to be how can we get money out of you. Portions are saucer size. No sides or even garnish. The food was not great. They tried the ol...

Just had lunch and we throughly enjoyed this quirky place. Having had dinner the night before at their sister restaurant, Fritzroy, we decided to give the North Street a try. Absolutely loved the layout, I.e. ambience! The staff were excellent and menu perfect for us....

Delicious food served in a quirky ambience - great selection of fish dishes and vegetables served tapas style/plates for sharing. Mussels, Salt Fish and Ling all served quickly with a smile and at good prices. Will definitely visit again. Only a short wait for seating...

This is the most fantastic place I have been to for a while. A great team working together, professional and such quality dishes. Funny how the simple buildings things often are the best. We had Mussels, oysters, mackerel, sardines, grilled cabbage, and lots of other...

Nice but overpriced. Haddock rarebit cost £11 and nice enough though the cheese overwhelmed the fish; the portions were small; the mackerel was lovely but stupidly overpriced at £19 for a single fish. It would have been easy to provide some bread or perhaps a...

I must have visited a different place having read some of these reviews. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and great watching it all happen in the kitchen . Our food surpassed expectations. The ling was scrummy, the gazpacho with crab intense and delicious. Then came the...

We had mixed feelings about this place........ Firstly, it is walk-ins only and is very small and tight. We got a table, but had to wait 20mins. The staff were all chatty and attentive - very good, to be honest. Ambiance - yes, it did...

Had 6 utterly delicious, fresh creamy oysters, followed by, possibly the best sardines ever. The grilled cabbage was great. Great chunks of bread to go with the mussels, washed down with a litre of local ale. It was all perfect. Service was polite and prompt....

Lovely lunch away from most of the maddening crowd in the centre of Fowey. Lovely position on river with views and a modern vibe with art and poetry on one wall. Plates are for sharing and we had the Porthilly rock oysters (large and creamy),...

This place is a real gem for food lovers. There are no frills when it comes to the decor of layout of the restaurant but I think it adds to the relaxed charm of it. The wine doesn’t come in bottles, but we had a...

If you are familiar with Portuguese bodegas then you will be delighted with this place. It is not cheap but it is perfect for lunch on a hot day. We had oysters, sardines, mackerel pate, crusty bread and butter plus 500ml of wine and thoroughly...

Gazpacho with crab - weird I thought even more so when the waitress said the soup had bread in it - but it was delicious. Friendly and enthusiastic knowledgeable staff. Open kitchen. No bookings. Can't beat it.

We (2 adults) are staying in Fowey for a week and decided to try North Street Kitchen. Waiting to be taken to a table (no booking, just walk in (after a lengthy wait)) the aromas coming from the kitchen smelt heavenly; memories of barbecued sardines...

Hubby is turning 50 this year and after a truly awful past 12 months with the sudden passing of his Mum , I intend on making his 50th year a treat . We decided on a day out to Fowey , visited many many times...

If I could give this place six stars I would. Unpretentious and relaxed, and food that’s out of this world. Our son even broke his veganism of three years to try the mackerel in this place! Wonderful, attentive team, who get it spot on. Will...

I had no idea about this place. We came for my sons 20th birthday - the sun was shining, the vibe was chilled and attentive. The food was sublime. Not cheap but worth every penny. Perfectly cooked and seasoned food delivered as and when each...

Rude, disinterested staff, mediocre and overpriced menu. I would suggest spending your hard earned holiday money elsewhere. Perhaps with a restaurant who value their customers.

We came here on our first day in Fowey, we are from Bristol/Bath so are used to city prices, the prices here are London prices. At the end of our holiday we are still talking about the price of our meal considering the portion sizes…...

Total foodie and happy to pay premium but this place was just awful and total rip off. Pretentious young staff, poor food, awful wine, insult adding 12.5% service charge. Please avoid. I really don’t like writing bad reviews but don’t want others to waste there...

I’ve been a couple of times now - my husband loves fish - I don’t ! …. Yes it’s a bit pricey … but it’s so good … staff are great .. I just don’t get the other reviews, everyone, without exception, was friendly and...

I was so happy to see this cool little venue pop up last year. It looked so very different to other places in the area. We actually only stopped for 3 drinks on the way in to town last week. It was vey quiet… only...

After wanting to eat here for a while we decided to visit this week. Well what a complete disappointment. The food was mediocre and only a 3” piece of monkfish and a quarter of a pickle with a huge dollop of mustard mayo-£14 what a...

RIP OFF RIP OFF RIP OFF… Passed here a few times meaning to go in. Should have read trip advisor beforehand…what a huge mistake on my part. I’ll never get that cash back, time & left still hungry. The owners must have friends as Michelin...

Visited one of our favourite destinations today Fowey Cornwall Having had two fabulous visits to the North Street Kitchen we headed straight there. Quite disappointed today. We understand the menu is dependant on what is available on the day but we were a little disappointed...

This sea food kitchen was recommended to us , probably inspired by the connection to Fitzroy We were truly disappointed and have never felt so unhappy about anywhere we have visited . It is not our nature to write disparaging comments on TA as everybody...

I don’t always leave reviews but felt compelled to because of my surprise at how overpriced everything we ate was. In particular the drinks. £4 is perhaps not too much for a grape juice and soda water “spritz” but the size of the glass was...

I visited receny with my wife who had been before -There is a new less interesting menu than last year. The food was perfectly "OK' but not outstanding as previous reviews suggest and a bit over-prices for what was on offer. Possible style over substance?...

Quirky place, no frills, sharing long tables with others which is fine as they are cooking fresh food and so it is a ‘street food’ feel. However, this is not street food prices, the food was good, lovely Lemon Sole Caesar salad but 2 tiny...

We had a very enjoyable lunch here, a sunny day, lovely setting. Perfect space. Staff were friendly and efficient The food was very good, but some of it does seem overpriced for what you get. I would say that sticking to the delicious and well...

So excited to plan a return visit with the family having been ‘wowed’ last year and felt thoroughly fleeced! £4 for a handful of leaves called a salad, £3 for 2 slices of sourdough and the curried mussel dish was half the size of last...

A discretionary tip should be just that. If your going to add 12.5% to the bill just add it to the cost of the as it happened already over priced food. Yes it will amount to the same total but at least you won't be...

Fresh and interesting menu. Local produce delivered well. Earthy and basic venue but it’s just right on all levels. Highly recommended.

Nearly an hour to wait for a table only to be served 4 minuscule bites of monkfish for £11!! The curried mussels were lovely but at £14 I could literally count about 10 in my bowl. Considering you can pick these up for a few...

Dropped in for a bite and a drink. Food bland and poor…drinks were tiny and massively overpriced. One of their cocktails - frozen marguerita - wouldn’t fill an egg cup and they charged £8.50!!!!! Small can of IPA - £4.50…really? By the way, they don’t...

Amazing location friendly staff & fresh food cooked in front of you . Highly recommended for seafood lovers. No frills or huge menu what you see is what you get. Very impressed.

A lovely setting right by the river in Fowey, We were attracted by the menu but put off by the prices! Eventually decided to go for it anyway! Generous amount of crab meat in the crab roll, but pricey at £14 each! Fish soup with...

A crazy spend for what we had. The food and beer were fine, nothing special. Staff were lovely. I guess you're paying a premium for being in Fowey, but I think a pasty from the bakery by the river would have been a much better...

Excellent food and service. Simple decor great location highly recommend this delicious place small portions but highly recommend trying these dishes

If there really is only one place you have time for lunch on a visit to Fowey, it’s the North St Kitchen. You can’t have dinner there, because it doesn’t open for dinner. Then of course there are caveats…be prepared to hang around to get...

Average food consequently over priced for what we ordered, however I have to mention the total extortion of the drinks prices, £3 for a very small glass of draught cider which I suspect would struggle in volume to reach 330ml . But I suppose at...

Terrible service,average food served cold,certainly not worth the money. Staff were not friendly or helpful will definitely not be retuning.

A queue around the block at midday can signal either overhyped hangout or undiscovered gem. Bustle your way into NSK's bunker and you'll soon see that in this case it's the latter. In the wrong hands, a tiny kitchen and backyard griddle could scarcely promise...

Great varied menu of fish dishes Delicious salads and cornish potatoes Wonderful flavours All freshly prepared Bbq going

Despite having to wait 40 mins for a table, the lunch we had here at the weekend was brilliant. It’s not cheap but we’ll worth it and the staff are welcoming and knowledgeable about what they are serving. Highly recommended.

Top food. Oysters were the best I've had, really sweet. Hake Kiev sublime, and grilled mackerel done to perfection. We arrived at 11:30 but glad we stayed until the opening time of 12 noon because the food was well worth the wait. Whist waiting, i...

We came last August and it was on our to do list this again year. The food was still amazing, the service was excellent we all enjoyed, again. 2 adults and 2 eleven year olds There have been negative reviews but queue to get on...

Limited food and drink menu which was all great and quite unique. It was a little pricey but the quality was excellent. The guy who took our order (shaved head and moustache) was super nice and helpful - he had a really good way. Covid...

Delicious fresh fish. Quirky place. Good service. Prices are eye wateringly expensive!! £22 for the smallest piece of cod ever served in a restaurant. £5 for 3/4 boiled potatoes!! Mini glasses of wine. Food was delicious but just very expensive

The food here was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was fab. The Cornish Potatoes from the barbecue were a revelation, really stunning.

Ate here twice during our weeks holiday as we liked it so much. A really nice relaxed place in an old warehouse only open a lunchtimes and no booking so wise to get there at 12 and wait to be allocated a table unless you...

Grim. I think I was charged for the wait, it certainly wasn't for the food or drinks. Bad attitude. Sit in the carpark for best part of an hour then grab a stool. I think the drinks must be served with a pipette.

We'd noticed this place (packed out) after having lunch elsewhere, so later on during our stay, we had a late lunch here. The staff were a tiny bit brusque (I didn't want to sit inside, preferring the vacant table at the side which felt a...

Fabulous food. Really memorable. Buzzing atmosphere. We are a pair of greedy guts so we ordered a lot of the small plates to fill us up. Amazing seafood soup, crab ,partner thought it was the best oysters he'd ever had, Agree with reviews it is...

We have eaten at the North Street Kitchen on several occasions and each time we have had stunning food and great service. The food is exquisite and flavours second to none, great atmosphere and a lovely chance to chill out close to the River with...

Had been recommended here by my son who visited - we were prepared to queue but not for the attitude of the staff who frankly were busy but also brusque and disinterested in being friendly or helpful. We were in Fowey for a week so...

A total rip off! The service was excellent and so was the flavour of the food but the price was extortionate! I ate here today with 2 friends we chose 5 tapas dishes to share from the menu and were assured that would be plenty....

We had a fantastic Lunch. Staff were delightful, professional and efficient. We waited 30 minutes for a table but when we sat down the drinks came straight away and the food soon afterwards. The food was exquisite and beautifully cooked. The portions were not large...

I hardly write bad reviews but for this occasion I thought I had to give honest feedback to be of help for other people. The waitress warned us at the start that ‘the portion is small so order lots and share’ and she was absolutely...

Extremely average food at ridiculous prices. Poor service - nothing is too much for these people! Don't queue it's all hype and certainly not worth the wait.

In fairness, the food itself wasn’t bad - flavours and textures were there. However, this was unfortunately overshadowed by the headache-inducing prices. £5 for 3 potatoes? Where are these being sourced - the Garden of Eden? £7 for a spoonful of mackerel pâté? £21 for...

Overpriced, filthy toilets, and a sneaky service charge added. Avoid at all costs. The words Dick Turpin spring to mind.
