    Ogo at Bedruthan Hotel & Spa

    The Bedruthan Hotel & Spa has recently opened it's new restaurant, 'Ogo'. Translating to ‘Cave’ in Cornish, Ogo is inspired by the coastline’s natural bounty with menus emphasising a commitment to deliver seasonal, high-quality ingredients. From beach foraging for edible seaweeds and berries from the clifftops to working with local fisherman for their daily catch, Ogo showcases the best of hyper-local produce in the Southwest.

    Located within the Bedruthan Hotel in Mawgan Porth, Ogo takes the place of the former 'The Herring' and brings a new direction for the restaurant. Head Chef George Richardson’s keen passion for showcasing the best of Cornish produce is reflected through partnerships with handpicked local suppliers and farms who share his commitment to sustainable practices. Focussing on in-season produce, the daily changing menu will vary according to the season and retain a focus on provenance: from what the boats bring in each day along the South coast, to foraged ingredients from the surrounding countryside.
