The Cornish Barista - Quarryside — Restaurant in England

My partner and I had just completed the Via Ferrata course (which was great fun). This cafe was recommended to us by a member of staff for their cakes. My partner has an eating disorder, so we brought our own sandwiches and drinks, but we decided to purchase their cakes to try. However as we started to eat our sandwiches, a middle aged lady came over and told us to leave the premises as we aren't allowed to eat our own food, despite buying the cakes from this cafe. Although we were still paying customers, I assume £8.40 for their cakes were not a big enough spend for us to be eligible to sit inside of their cafe. I assume that eating disorders aren't taken into account at this cafe, or we would have not been asked to leave...

I did not want to embarrass my partner, so I did not argue and mention that she has an eating disorder infront of a room full of other customers, so we left the cafe as we were instructed to leave.

However if we were to have been forced to purchase hot food from this cafe to stay seated within the cafe, and my partner was to react badly to their hot food, due to an eating disorder, who would have been at fault and who would have been to blame?

We got made to leave, despite us both being paying customers. Unfriendly staff.

I assume I will get a sarcastic response...

Visited today for Mothers Day lunch. It was a last minute booking and even more last minute adding 2 extra people on but they were so accommodating and responsive. There were 7 of us and we had a wide range of food from the breakfast, mac and cheese, beef brisket, avocado on toast and it was all absolutely lovely! Service was quick although they were busy. Everything was presented nicely, wasn't as expensive as we thought and definitely worth the money! Other food was also being served to other customers that looked absolutely delicious so we are already looking at coming back sometime soon to try other stuff. The easter eggs are also very good priced, absolutely delicious and the staff members were so kind and helpful. It was absolutely service with a smile! Would recommend to anyone and we cant wait...

I went to The Cornish Barista and ordered a Chai Latte. My Chai Latte was soooo sickly sweet and tasted of sweeteners. I asked if the syrup used was sugar free and was told yes. I requested the Chai Latte to be replaced by a normal Latte as it really was awful. I was asked to pay for another Latte!!! I have never ever been asked to pay for another Latte when that was not drinkable. I was then told management would give me a second Latte at half price!! Omg!! Really? The chai Latte was awful. What happened to the customer is always right. They not only put in so much syrup that it just tasted of sweeteners, I was subjected to paying for another Latte because the first one was undrinkable. The staff might be very pleasant but management need to learn how to handle...
