The Gwithian
The Gwithian, named after one of our beautiful beaches here in Cornwall, is a truly sumptuous feast. This rustic picnic has a crisp fine bean salad, lemon & thyme marinated organic Cornish chicken skewers served with a spicy Gourmet Picnic chutney. There's also the delicious pork & pistachio terrine, served with baked fig and mozzarella with an aged balsamic vinegar dressing.
Following on we have the selection of Westcountry cheese, homemade marinated provencal olives and hand fried crisps made in Cornwall, and of course our homebaked rustic bread, baked each morning in our wood fired oven.
To conclude this veritable feast, we provide Cornish strawberries with a dollop of Cornish clotted cream, all washed down with two bottles of the award winning Polgoon Cider.

Whilst Gourmet Picnics make every effort to ensure that your picnics will reach you in the perfect condition it will leave us in, these are perishable items which must be eaten on the day it is delivered. The contents must be kept cool and out of sunlight. Due to the nature of the contents we cannot be responsible for any illness associated with shellfish or the ingredients included in our picnics.
Our courier company APC assure us that in most cases deliveries will arrive before 12pm however we cannot guarantee it.
Your picnic will come packed in a polystyrene cool box, which unfortunately although not biodegradeble is fantastic for growing seedlings in, or even keeping your wine and beers cool on a barbie day!
Inside the box your: chosen picnic is freshly made that day by our chefs, and each course is individually packed in our special containers made from polylactic acid (PLA), a bioplastic produced from corn and other natural starches such as wheat.
