The best of Cornwall's food and dining industry was celebrated in Porthleven on Friday night, with big winners from both the Falmouth and Lizard area.
Taking place on the opening night of the Porthleven Food and Music Festival, the Golden Oyster Awards returned for a second year.
The Pandora Inn at Restronguet was named best pub with food, while Olivers in Falmouth was named best restaurant.
The Gylly Beach Cafe in Falmouth was voted the best place for alfresco dining for the second year, with the Poldhu Beach Cafe also retaining its title as best cafe.
Trevaskis Farm at Hayle was once again voted as selling the best produce, while Ann's Pasties at The Lizard won the new "best pasty" trophy.
The awards were supported by St Austell Brewery this year and presented on the night by musician Rosie Crow.
Jeremy Mitchell from the brewery said: "Cornwall’s foodie offering is world renowned, and is often quoted as a key draw for visitors to the county. The breadth of Cornwall’s food industry, from the well-established to the up and coming, always surprises and impresses me.
"It’s great to see Porthleven Food Festival’s Golden Oyster Awards acknowledging and celebrating all that Cornwall’s food industry has to offer."
The awards ceremony was followed by street food, live music and dancing until late, with performances from The Urban Voodoo Machine, Porthleven’s The Rosie Crow Band and The Motown Pirates.
