UK-born Paul Ainsworth is the successful chef and restaurateur behind Paul Ainsworth at No6, Caffè Rojano, Padstow Townhouse, Mahé Chef's Table and Development Kitchen, and The Mariners - all located on the North Cornwall coast. In 2005 Paul became Head Chef at Padstow's No6 before taking over the business with his wife Emma in 2009, earning a Michelin star in 2013. The four course menu at the restaurant showcases Cornish produce at its best. In 2011, Paul acquired Rojano's in Padstow, now called Caffè Rojano, and inspired by the couple's love of New York's Italian American café culture, it serves a Mediterranean-inspired menu. Padstow Townhouse opened in 2015, a six-suite boutique hotel in Padstow's Old Town, realising the couple's dream of offering their guests somewhere to stay. In 2019, they acquired The Mariners Public House in Rock, across The Camel Estuary from Padstow, and reopened it following a major refurbishment.
