The Tartan Fox, Newquay

Andrew Tuck joined The Tartan Fox as Senior Sous Chef when it first opened, working alongside Chef Adam Handling MBE. Within a matter of months, the pub was added to the Michelin Guide and Andi was promoted to become its first Head Chef. A well-known Cornish chef, his cooking style incorporates creative fire and smoking methods and Cornish local ingredient sourcing. Working with Chef Adam has further developed his relentless passion for cooking and sustainability.

Andi first fell in love with food whilst fishing in Cornish waters with his father as a young boy and has since led St. Kew Inn to 36th in the Estrella Damm Top 50 Gastropubs list. A rising star on the British food scene, known for his fire cooking skills, Andi has also featured on Rick Stein’s Cornwall Series and competed on the 2023 and 2024 series of Great British Menu, representing the Southwest and showcasing his food on a national level of excellence.
