The Wig & Pen

The Wig & Pen is a historic gastro pub on Frances Street in the centre of Truro, where dogs are welcome inside as well as at the outdoor seating. Staff keep a jar of dog treats on the bar and bowls of water ready, which makes it a straightforward lunch or dinner stop in the city with a dog along.

The building has more than 200 years of history as a Truro pub, and the kitchen works from seasonal menus built around Cornish produce and local suppliers, with every dish made fresh on site. Alongside the all-day menu there is a Pub Lunch Club and a Sunday lunch menu, a dedicated gluten-free menu is available, and Pard Card, Blue Light and Forces discounts are offered.

Tables can be booked online, while Christmas 2026 bookings are taken by email only. The main entrance is up steps, but a side entrance gives step-free access to one of the outdoor seating areas; there is an accessibility ramp on site but no accessible toilet. The pub has no car park of its own, so drivers use Truro's city-centre car parks.
