Chris and James Tanner's eponymous restaurant is growing from strength to strength and fast becoming a destination for both their unique twenty-first century cuisine as well as the contrasting medieval style décor consisting of refectory style tables, tapestries, an illuminated well and florid quotes inscribed on rough stone walls.
 
Having gained experience at some of the best restaurants in London, Bath, France and New York, the brothers zeroed in on the Prysten House, one of the oldest residential buildings in Plymouth as the venue for their venture in 1999. Within a span of eight years, Tanners scooped the AA restaurant of the year award.

The food there is anything but ordinary with dishes such as pan fried Cornish Pollack, lemon and herb linguini, tomato fondue, confit 'gressingham' duck leg with vegetable soup and corn-fed chicken and ham hock terrine, prune, hazelnut and smoked oil featuring on the menu. Guests are also provided a good range of wines from across the globe.
