The Old Ale House - Truro

A great traditional pub in the town centre, with a large selection of ales.  Upstairs is a restaurant, which the Brewery have done as a collaboration with The River Cottage (Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall).  Menu showcases great pub food (the Yarg and Bacon Popcorn is already a firm favorite and the ribs are fabulous).  Great place for lunch when visiting Truro: http://old-ale-house.co.uk/
