A beach cafe in the most rustic sense - a beachside shed with some outdoor seating. It is a National Trust-owned hut, but run by a local couple who provide 'Feast Nights' - now made famous by their appearance on ITV's 'Cornwall with Caroline Quentin'. You need to buy tickets, but the hut is generally open to everyone, except during the winter, so check times on their Web site.
You will find this little gem opposite the church car park and whilst the church is worth a visit for the gardens alone, this little cafe in a hut really is something special. Visit for drinks, homemade cakes and one of the best cream teas in the area.
Overlooked by stately Pendennis castle, this attractive, award-winning family run cafe is relaxed and friendly, serving locally-sourced food. Get lost in the wonderful views from the deck looking out across the sea to the Lizard.
A funky, independent cafe with excellent eco credentials and a delicious, wholesome menu. Miss Peapod's is situated right on the water at Penryn wharf. Sit out on the deck and watch the boats go by, or lounge inside on the retro sofas and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere. Miss Peapod's won a well-deserved gold in Cornwall Tourism's cafe of the year awards, 2009. If you're looking for something for the weekend, Miss Peapod's is open for evening meals on Fridays and hosts live music on Saturdays.
Renowned internationally for growing England's only home-grown tea, Tregothnan is a privately-owned working estate. They do more than just tea and its sundries however; flowers, food and gardens are all available to the public.
A lovely little local cafe that showcases modern Cornwall. Local ingredients served in a fresh and friendly shop.
This family run cafe offers a wide selection of fayre to suit all types of dietary needs. Very reasonably priced freshly prepared food - ideal for lunch or to just indulge in homemade cake!
This cafe is located on the beach at this quiet cove on the outskirts of Falmouth. There is easy nearby parking, a fun bouncer, crazy golf and a water-sports school, making it a perfect location for families. You could try your hand at fishing from kayak and take your dinner home with you! The cafe offers light lunches and ice creams to die for!
You'll find a cafe, deli and gift shop combined into one and well placed next to the harbour. Seasonal changes are made to the menu with products chosen for their uniqueness.
Sit by the water and watch the world go by from this lovely spot. Open for breakfast and lunch, food is cooked to order and daily specials are available.
