Proper Cornish seafood, not imported stuff

You're in Cornwall. The seafood here is outstanding and it would be a shame to serve anything less. Our platters are built around what's fresh that day — Cornish dressed lobster, crab, shell-on king prawns, smoked salmon, smoked mackerel pate, and more.

They work brilliantly at weddings and anniversary parties, often paired with a sharing platter. If you're renting a cottage in St Ives or Padstow, a seafood platter delivered to your door is a cracking way to start a holiday.

“Saltwind came up to sunny Devon for Jo’s 60th party. Everyone absolutely loved the Hog Roast. We had a party of 55 and we were still finishing off the food at 3am. Mark and the guys were great and worked so hard to keep everyone fed. The crackling was awesome! And we all loved the beef as well! Was everything we wanted and more ! Cheers to Saltwind!”

Where it comes from

Newlyn, Looe, Padstow, Mevagissey — boats land daily and the catches are at harbour markets the same morning. That's what we buy.

We don't buy frozen imported prawns and call them Cornish. Pot-caught lobsters, locally dressed crab, mackerel smoked in Cornwall. You're getting the real thing, not a supermarket platter with a Union Jack sticker.
