In a stunning Cornish Atlantic setting, just a mile from St Ives, Ugly Butterfly restaurant and bar offers spectacular views across one of the worlds most beautiful coasts, Carbis Bay. Ugly Butterfly showcases chef Adam Handling’s passion for converting locally-sourced, quality ingredients into beautifully-presented dishes, packed full of flavour. Offering an all-day dining experience, the Ugly Butterfly bar uses trims and offcuts from the ingredients used in the restaurant to create delicious drinks and bar snacks. This bar menu will illustrate that there is no such thing as food waste, much in the same way that there is no such thing as an Ugly Butterfly.

    Delicious food as always, beautifully cooked and presented with lots of interesting flavours with super fresh local products. We were especially impressed with the way the chef and staff catered to a vegan in our party. Excellent vegan menu packed with flavour and taste.

    Always a joy to visit the Turks Head when we’re on holiday. Fabulous atmosphere in the cosy bar area where friendly locals mix with tourists. Bar staff are super efficient with always a smile and the food is excellent. I think we’ve tried pretty much everything on the menu over the last few years and without exception they’ve all been wonderful in every aspect, and great value too. You Must visit. Actually, please don’t as we want to be able to book next time we’re here!
