Gorgeous little café shack right on Chapel Porth beach. This place is an absolute must to visit if you are in St. Agnes. They serve everything here and are famous for their "hedgehogs" (not what you are thinking as in an actual hedgehog) it's their famous ice cream which is not for the faint hearted nor the dairy intolerant lol! Food was excellent, price is not cheap - but nowhere is in cornwall! They also, more importantly, have delicious coffee (decaf too) and non dairy milk, which is hard to get in cornwall! So it was perfect for me. You can pit stop here and pick up the coastal path to either direction of st. Agnes or to porthtowan or spend the day at Chapel Porth beach and just mooch about and watch the world go by. I came here on a Saturday and there was an organised trail run/hike so it was very busy. As it's a small beach/cove, try and get here early to get a good spot and enjoy having the cafe right there. Great loos, too, which is a huge bonus! Dog friendly too and all the staff there were super sweet kind and helpful. There is plenty of parking which you will...

There can sometimes be a wait as it gets very busy and it's only a tiny kitchen, but it's well worth the wait, and you're by the beach, life isn't meant to go quickly. Absolutely recommend, even if you're just buying a coffee and a cake, the flapjacks alone are worth...
Read moreA really cute beachfront cafe run by the most adorable couple. They have a tasty selection of food although the full menu isn’t always available. There’s also a good selection of soft drinks and a lovely seating area plotted in the sun. I’d really recommend stopping of here before venturing across the beach to Porthtowan or over the cliffs to the old mines and St Agnes. There’s also some toilets which is always helpful when heading out for a long walk. Just a heads up: Avoid Tuesday around 11am as the car park have their septic tank emptied, it’s a...
