Temple, Bude - Cornwall,Isles of Scilly

Quite superb- interesting and very flavoursome food with eclectic wine list. One of the best meals out I 've had for a long time. Dinner is an innovative set menu where there is a fixed trio of vegetarian dishes, with a main course choice. Plenty of thought has gone into complementary textures and flavours. This place deserves a wider audience.

Came for dinner mid week. They have a set menu where you get all the starters and then pick your main and there’s optional add ons. We had monk fish and hake both beautifully cooked and added on the scallops which were lovely. For dessert I recommend the rice pudding that was very special. With the extras, a bottle of wine, 2x Proseccos and 2x whiskeys it came to £150 which we thought was reasonable.

Food good but grossly over priced. Around £250 for 4 of us with just 1 drink each is absolutely over the top. I am used to paying that sort of price in London but I am taken aback to hit such level in Bude.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I brought my son here as a treat and a break from his mammoth trek north (Land's End to John O’Groats) and we couldn't have been more delighted. Even if he hadn't been subsisting on dried meals in a bag, the food way surpassed any other restaurant meal we could have opted for. Vegetables so beautifully prepared as to bring out the best in them with sprinklings of toasted hazelnut, herbs and seasonings. Gorgeous cocktails with a second half price. Tender chicken and crispy/fluffy potatoes. And a few wonderful combinations of things I'd have not thought of that worked so well. Definitely go if you can!

I cannot praise this restaurant enough. The food completely exceeded our expectations. It's like experiencing the best of Ottolenghi at a fraction of the cost, and not many people know about it. The side dishes were simple yet incredibly delicious (I'll be craving the hazelnut green beans), my hake was fantastic, and I can't even begin to describe how amazing the chocolate mousse was. Every wine or cocktail we tried was fantastic, and the service was impeccable. I just wish I lived closer to Bude! Thank you for a wonderful evening.
