Rafferty's Café & WineBar
Nestled in the heart of St Merryn near Padstow, Cornwall, Rafferty's Cafe & Wine Bar offers a welcoming retreat where culinary passion meets warm Cornish hospitality. Owner Ed Rafferty's philosophy centres around 'The Three G's' – Great Food, Great Wine and Great Service, creating the foundation for a truly memorable dining experience. The contemporary modern decor provides a relaxed atmosphere where guests are greeted with a warm Cornish welcome, setting the tone for an evening of exceptional dining. Ed passionately believes that fantastic meals come from quality seasonal ingredients, sourced locally within the region. The kitchen takes these quality ingredients and matches them with a passion for exciting innovative dishes on a menu that is always evolving, ensuring each visit offers something fresh and inspiring. The culinary approach reflects Ed's extensive experience, from his early training at Simpsons-in-the-Strand through to his years at Rick Stein's Seafood Restaurant, bringing together influences from his travels around the world. The wine selection at Rafferty's is particularly noteworthy, crafted by Ed who trained as a Sommelier. Each wine has been carefully tried and tested, with great thought given to matching the selection with the food menu. The knowledgeable team is always happy to recommend the perfect wine pairing for your meal, ensuring every dish is complemented by the ideal vintage.
