A poor introduction to Cornwall.
Let me preface this by saying I am Cornish but no longer live local so this comes from the perspective of both a local and now more recently a visitor.
I dipped in for my cream tea fix before I made my way back up country. On the plus side; ordering was easy enough and the staff were very pleasant.
However; the cream tea itself left a lot to be desired. The scone had the structural integrity of sand and was basically impossible to spread jam/cream on without it falling to bits. I appreciate a crumbly scone but this was ridiculous.
Furthermore the price was quite high, I felt, for what I got. £5.50 for one scone, a small pot of jam and cream and a cup of tea. Had it been two scones I felt the price would of been justifiable, even then though I would have been disappointed due to the afore mentioned mediocre quality.
In short. While it wasn't horrible it certainly didn't leave me feeling like I had got something of value for my money and was a bit of a let down. I would advise trying somewhere...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWow! If your a ice cream lover your spoilt for choice and certainly taste. We ordered a kaskelots sea salt and caramel and a banana and kiwi ice cream and have never enjoyed one so much, creamy, full of flavour ice cream you will get, I can see why it's award winning, absolutely wonderful, we then decided to order a steak pasty and a large slice of fruit cake which both looked mouth watering, it did not disappoint! The pasty was beautifully seasoned and crammed with large chunks of steak and potatoes and season veg, a beautiful and award winning pasty which after tasting I could see why, the fruit cake too was lovely and moist, crammed with fruit and cherries a delight! And above all served with a lovely smile and helpful staff, well done to you all, anyone visiting, give this lovely place a visit well worth it! Also check out the waffles too they...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreDonāt waste your money here. Rubbish cream tea. Dry cheap scone with a small pot of jam and cream (may I add the jam and clotted cream were lovely), nowhere near worth the Ā£5.50 paid. Iced coffee was rubbish too. Easily the worse Iāve had. Wouldnāt come back. Service isnāt anything to write home about either. And nor should I be compelled to take my personal views to a member of staff. Iām entitled to share my opinion with other google users. Not a problem with paying Ā£5.50 either for what I received, as written itās not WORTH the amount paid. Most rubbish scone Iāve had in my life. Thatās my opinion and take it...
