Taste South East Cornwall is centered around the picturesque fishing ports of Looe and Polperro, whose reputation for local food and fine dining has been well established since the first Taste event was held in 2005. Our mission is a year round promotion of South East Cornwall as a destination for discerning food lovers, by showcasing the quality of its restaurants, food producers, suppliers and accommodation providers.

Taste South East Cornwall 2009 includes foodie events throughout the year, culminating on New Years Eve - one of the great UK New Year Venues with restaurants offering great food and wine - including Day Boat Fish from the quay right here in Looe!
