the highest welfare standards.Our fish and shellfish come from West Country day boats and other sustainable
sources in the South West. If our fish choices are sometimes limited it is because we are rigorous in only choosing what we believe to be sustainable. This season is good for crabs, turbot, plaice, mackerel, mussels & oysters.

POGO-18 tours, 27 th January 2017
The Devonport Naval Heritage Site and Visitor Centre records the development of The Dockyard and Plymouth’s pivotal role in supporting the Royal Navy through major conflicts since 1300, including two World Wars. Through its collections, pictorial interpretation and interactive experiences the drama of the close relationship of Devonport, the Royal Navy, the Dockyard and the people of Plymouth can be explored
HMS Courageous provides a fascinating glimpse into the operational world of the ‘Silent Service’. It is a 285ft (87m) long, 4300 ton, Churchill class, decommissioned nuclear submarine, the only exhibit of its kind in the UK. Her time submerged was limited only by the food that could be carried and the endurance of the crew. Her nuclear reactor was a virtually
limitless power supply driving both the propulsion and the life support systems onboard. Making fresh water and even oxygen from the sea water around her, she could remain beneath the surface for months at a time.
Plymouth Gin is produced in the historical Black Friars distillery, the oldest working gin distillery in England. Since 1793 its unique recipe of botanicals with soft Dartmoor water and pure grain alcohol has resulted in this particularly English gin becoming as famous and well-travelled as those who first tasted it. From the building’s origins to the Victorian copper still and the modern day bar, a tour around the Black Friars Distillery is not something you’ll soon forget.
