This is an amazing little tea room situated just a 2 minute walk from Porthcothan Bay. They have a nice selection of sweet and savoury dishes. We went with a big group so we had nearly all the menu choices between us. The portion sizes are very generous as even the pasties come with a nice big handful of salad garnish including coleslaw and potato salad. I'm normally one who goes for a mixed grill at restaurants to fill me up but my lunch here filled me up.
The milkshakes are amazing and great value for money, in fact I'd say they are the largest and best value for money in Cornwall. If you ask for a large you get a pint of milkshake, not a tiny little 3rd pint dome cup thing you get elsewhere.
Only reason why this isn't 5 stars is because we were sitting near the kitchen window and all we could hear were the staff shouting at eachother which was very unprofessional. Don't know what happened but someone either got woken up too early or someone messed up somehow. It just sounded like a very toxic work environment for the employees for which I felt sorry for as your employees are your family. Treat them horribly and they...
Read moreI had looked up best cream tea near me on Google and this place had popped up. It was the last day of our break so after a walk on the beach with the dogs we decided to give it a try.
Unfortunately we made a BIG mistake, and ordered their ploughman's lunch before we had the cream tea.... The ploughman's was amazing, loads of local cheddar, salad, pickles, coleslaw, potato salad and pasta salad, as well as a nice warm, crispy baguette.
Oops... Now too full to have the cream tea so we asked if they would do a take away... And they did! Two huge scones, homemade jam, clotted cream and what seemed like a punnet of strawberries were packed up for us to take away.
Cannot recommend this place enough... Mum cooks and bakes, daughter manages the place and Dad was a great host. Tea Room itself is lovely, with an area for dogs too as well as a more formal non-dog...
Read moreWow, what a fantastic tea room!
Excellent service, delicious food and all in a beautifully presented tea room. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, who were all very friendly and helpful. ❤
The cream tea itself was delicious! The homemade warm, heart shaped scones were lovely, and so was the cornish jam and cornish clotted cream.
Inside, the tea room itself was a very pleasant and inviting place to sit. The seating was particularly comfortable and the tables were nicely dressed, each with a small vase of flowers and pretty table runner.
We will definitely be returning here soon when family come to Cornwall for their summer holiday! We will be reserving a table in advance though, because this gem of a tea room will inevitably be very busy during the summer months!
Thankyou Team...
