With his signature blend of Cornish roots and London-honed expertise, Chris Eden stands as one of the region’s most accomplished chefs. He mastered his craft in London under renowned chefs Phil Howard, Chris Galvin, and Paul Gayler before returning to Cornwall.
At The Driftwood on the Roseland Peninsula, Chris made history as the first Cornishman to win a Michelin star in Cornwall, maintaining this prestigious accolade from 2012 until his departure. His culinary journey then took him to Devon’s Gidleigh Park, where he earned another Michelin star in 2023.
In October 2024, returning to his home county, Chris joined Watergate Bay as the new Executive Head Chef – Chris sees this homecoming as a defining moment in his career.
