Quick info
About Butchers Bistro
Butchers Bistro sits on Cliff Road in Newquay as a bistro and seafood restaurant that also covers steak. The menu pairs a regular list with daily specials, including a catch of the day such as hake, a lobster tagliatelle, and a menu of the day option. Diners can settle at the counter along the open kitchen to watch the cooks at work, and the wine list runs alongside the food. Dogs are welcome inside. The format supports walk-in service throughout the day, and a small, changing list of specials gives regulars something new to try on each visit.

“The food was delicious and fresh. The staff was really helpful and friendly. Really recommend Butchers Bistro”
- Yong Lee
“The wait for the food was excessively long considering the restaurant wasn’t busy. The food was overpriced and the menu lacked variety. The food itself was average, I don’t understand how this restaurant has such good reviews. I won’t be returning again.”
