Well what can I say, absolutely delicious and I don't normally eat fish. The flavours were so good and Bruce is a character full of life. If your in penzance, I'd advise a visit if you a foodie.

I must say that Chef Bruce is truly skilled at preparing fish dishes. I cannot give him enough compliments for consistently bringing out the flavors of the fish. Fish can be tricky to cook and sometimes tend to be overcooked, but that is not the case here. My favorite dish is the fish custard with roe and crab. You have to try it to know how delicious it is. I hope this restaurant will get a Michelin 1-star rating.

Read a review in an international travel magazine- made reservations a few months in advance. We’re told not to be late as the meal starts promptly at 7pm. Bruce shared his thought process, ingredients sources, cooking method, drink pairing and loads more as each course was served. I tried many new things - oh, you need to like seafood. 🐟🦪 delicious and adventurous but not scary

a very special meal. my partner took me out for a birthday and anniversary meal, and I got to choose the resterant and chose shore - for my love of japanease dining and intimate resteraunts. it lived up to all expectations, each course was immaculate in its own way - the layering of flavour working in unison. The wine pairing were probably my favourite part of the meal - not just focusing on wines - but getting a incredible variations of drinks that were the perfect sips with each bite. I think my partner fell in love with Bruce and his explination of each dish. He has been fangirling over his knowlege of food ever since. we left giddy and excited to come back in a different season.

Bruce is exceptional! I took my partner here for her birthday, splashing out on a bit more than I'd usually spend. Every penny was absolutley well spent. I had chosen Shore because of reviews stating it's just Bruce cooking and serving and I wanted a personal experience, that is exactly what we got. We chose to include the additional drinks pairing which I would 100% recomend for the full experience. Before each course Bruce talked us through what he was serving, where it was sourced (down to the name of the boat the fish was caught on). His knowledge of flavour and food theory was mind blowing and was represented by dishes that appeared simple if not for the number of steps Bruce had taken to get the ingredients to your plate. From 3 year homemade Miso to smoked fish custards and lacto-fermented vegtables. I will be reccomending The Shore to everyone I know as it has been the single best cullinary experience I have ever had and I look forward to the day I can afford to return. Thank you Bruce!

This is the 3rd or 4th time we have visited The Shore and every time it has been a fabulous culinary experience. Tuesday’s visit was no exception, a truly delicious menu prepared with precision, attention to detail and love by Bruce, ably assisted by his friendly and welcoming front of house manager. It was great the learn the provenance of each of the 6 dishes served from the chef himself. An intimate experience for people who enjoy trying unusual pairings and love the freshest ingredients from the local area. Well done Bruce, you do a fabulous job and we hope to be back next year!

A very special restaurant with all dishes using different fishes and cooking styles. The chef will have a brief introduction on his cooking philosophy at the start and then would briefly describe each dish before serving. Moreover, you can stay behind to share with him after the dinner. The first time I can have such close & free communication with the chef.

It was an excellent experience! It was amazing food theatre, from two different but equally passionate food professionals. The decor and story behind the carefully selected menu will thrill and excite anyone passionate about sustainability, supporting local British agriculture and fishing. I still cannot believe our host sources, preps, cooks and plates these dishes on their own. It's a massive show of art and skill that what is delivered from the door to plate is done with such character, finesse, and heart! They manage to produce what normally needs a team of people. But it's stripped back, family style dining is so refreshing and a joy to experience! It's a MUST for any true foodie

Bruce’s tasting menu was the highlight of our 10 day gastronomic tour of Devon and Cornwall. For someone who claims never to have visited Japan, his kaiseki menu would do even Endo proud. His interpretation of chawanmushi was sublime with a fresh and crunchy shitake and caviar. Superb fish fresh from the quay and the locally grown vegetables were delicious. Even the shiso tasted like shiso tastes in Japan, a remarkable achievement given that shiso in UK is generally bland and disappointing. Three things to bear in mind: 1) try to show up at 6.45pm to get the best tables. Dinner starts promptly at 7pm. 2) don’t expect any meat. 3) Bruce leaves the kitchen between every other course to describe the following two courses. His account of where he sourced the ingredients and how he prepared them is truly fascinating. - Finally, a meal at the Shore is not only a true feast for all your senses but also incredibly good value.

When dining in the Shore he talks you through each course , on his diverse menu His creative flair is second to none and you come away feeling more enthusiastic about Seafood, than you ever have before. His personality is infectious and you feel like you have been baptised by a local fish priest:) If you're in the Penzance area, please make sure you visit The Shore, you won't be disappointed !

One of the best meals we’ve ever had. A set menu of five fish dishes plus dessert prepared with passion and presented with self-deprecating enthusiasm by chef-owner Bruce Rennie, using Japanese techniques to bring out the best in his local produce. Every mouthful was delicious with each course complementing the one before and the one after. All the diners had to arrive at the same time, giving the evening the atmosphere of a supper club. The wine pairings are optional, but worth it because they are very carefully chosen. One course on the night we ate at The Shore was accompanied by sake, served at room temperature and perfectly smooth. The whole experience was delightful and one we will remember for a long time.
