At Restaurant Meudon, we have striven since day one to use local suppliers for as much of our produce as we possibly can, because…well, why wouldn’t we? It would make no sense to import food and drink that we could source from Cornish suppliers when Cornwall is known nationally – even across the world – as being a veritable food-lover’s paradise.
Here, we're surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, with rolling green hills and centuries of experience in farming, fishing, bakery, brewing…you name it. In fact, we are spoilt for choice with local suppliers these days and the Cornish food and drink industry has gone from strength to strength in the last decade, as people across the country have woken up to the quality of what we can offer. It’s now quite standard to be able to walk into a high-end restaurant in London and order Cornish mussels or fish, or to sit at a bar in Liverpool and order a pint of beer brewed in our beautiful county.
The benefits of buying local are many, and it goes way beyond just the high quality of the produce. There is an obvious reduction in environmental impact when your meat, fish, vegetables etc are transported a few miles rather than across the UK (or even from another country). There is also a hugely positive impact on the local economy, helping Cornish firms thrive, keeping generational family businesses alive, and encouraging new start-ups to flourish.
Being able to visit the farms, factories and boats where our delicious food comes from, meeting your suppliers face to face, and having a close relationship with them also helps to maintain a strong network based on trust and high standards.
It’s fair to say that we know a thing or two when it comes to creating dishes of the highest quality at Meudon, and we leave no stone unturned when it comes to seeking out the best local suppliers, providing the type of fresh produce that can elevate our menus to the exceptional standards that our guests insist upon. Our Head Chef, Charlotte Vincent, never settles for second best, or takes the easy route when it comes to sourcing the finest ingredients: "I never take for granted how lucky I am to live right in the middle of such a bountiful source of the finest produce. I may be biased, but Cornish meat, dairy, vegetables and beverages are as fine as any I’ve worked with in the world, and I always prioritise buying local for my dishes. If for any reason there is an ingredient I cannot source from Cornwall, I will only work with the highest quality providers, ensuring incredible flavours and the highest ethical standards".

This ethos of using Cornish suppliers is just one of the reasons Restaurant Meudon gained both Taste of the West and Cornwall Tourism Awards in 2022 in our first year of opening. For a peek at some of our suppliers, and what they offer, see the links below. We are always on the lookout for the best produce, and this list may be updated as we move forward.
