A restaurant in a Cornish resort is celebrating after having been awarded gold in an industry awards ceremony.

Una Kitchen at the Una St Ives resort in Carbis Bay has added to its awards haul with a Gold in the 2022 Taste of the West Retail & Hospitality Awards.

The awards are designed to promote and support the fantastic local food and drink in the southwest, organised by the largest independent regional food group in the UK, Taste of the West.

This year’s winners were announced on January 24, with Una Kitchen chalking up Gold in the restaurant category.

Announcing the accolade, the Taste of the West judges called the restaurant a "gem hidden in plain sight and we thoroughly recommend it!

"Una Kitchen is a lovely relaxed and inviting restaurant.

"The range of options on the menu certainly provided good choice for everyone, with the added benefit of a superb woodfired pizza oven."

Judges also applauded what they called the restaurant’s "excellent value for money."

Making the most of seasonal, locally sourced produce, Una Kitchen has gained a reputation in the area for wood-fired cooking at its finest, featuring a menu of local fish dishes, authentic pizzas and classic Sunday roasts.
