Internationally inspired flavours, local produce and fresh ingredient small plates

Meet Tim, Greg & Bertie

Three men smiling in a foodservice window, one wearing a black apron and two in red sports jerseys, with a sign reading 'silco' on a small digital device in front of them.

Founded by the Thompson brothers, Silco grew from a shared passion for great food, expertly crafted drinks and unforgettable hospitality.

With roots in St Ives, the trio work closely with local farmers, fishermen and producers to create vibrant, seasonal dishes that are full of flavour. Their ethos is simple: keep it local, keep it ethical, and always serve food that's made to be shared.
