Salumi Bar & Eatery in Plymouth has established itself as a go-to spot for the city’s residents, thanks to its flexible dining approach and ultra-friendly service. Whether it’s a Saturday brunch or Sunday lunch, a date-night dinner or cocktails and a sharing board with friends, all bases are covered.

Inside Salumi Bar & Eatery, Plymouth, turquoise-painted tables, chairs and fittings contrast with oak beams and exposed brick walls to create a rustic-cool vibe. Seating is split across multiple levels, plus there’s the opportunity to dine alfresco in the restaurant’s Garden of Dreams – a large outdoor courtyard area with wooden benches and a fire kitchen, where many of the dishes are prepared.

Chefs Dave Jenkins and Jake Hardington have created menus to suit any whim, be it for full-blown feasting, brunch or nibbles over drinks. Lunch dishes such as pan-roasted stonebass with prawn agnolotti, vermouth butter sauce and fennel sit next to casual steak burgers. Evening à la carte menus include fresh fish and finer cuts of meat alongside crowdpleasers like ox-cheek lasagne with salsa verde, aged parmesan and garlic sourdough.

The food is modern British, encompasses flavours from across the globe and isn’t constrained by tradition. Take the Sunday lunch menu, which features classic roasts alongside small plates such as bao bun with barbecued king oyster mushroom, soy, sesame and chilli.
