Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

Convenient for the town and railway station, the 'Wig' offers a pleasant interior and quiet, friendly atmosphere. Originally the Star Inn, it was renamed with the coming of the then new law courts nearby. Many of its customers are passing shoppers, visitors or from the nearby law courts, and has a strong emphasis on food, although there is a loyal following of local drinkers too. The single, carpeted L-shaped bar has wooden furnishings throughout. Beers may be varied within the St. Austell Brewery portfolio and include a 'house beer' called Judge's Gavel at 4.0%abv. There is a strong emphasis on quality food, cooked in-house using local produce; the pub basement is generally available for functions. The small patio is popular in good weather.
