    We really enjoyed Sunday lunch at Host. The roast beef was excellent and all the veg attractively presented in little pots. Good red wine, friendly attentive service and a relaxing atmosphere. We will be back.

    this was our first trip to St Ives and Host came highly recommended by our Airbnb host. we went for the Sunday roast which was one of the best we have had in a very long time. beautifully cooked and simply delicious. it was so good we went back for dinner three days later. the food was just as good and the service was fast, efficient and very friendly. i would highly recommend this place.

    Service pre-Booking with Nicole was timely, kind and friendly…. We Loved the space, had a drink sat by the Fire before moving to our table… The young lad working that day was Brilliant and really just willing to go the extra mile. We had a Fabulous Roast, we wanted to add on Cauliflower cheese but in all honestly the set veg were fantastic…. Can not recommend highly enough. Thank you team Host
