Not too far from the busiest part of town, but also kinda not too close to there. I chilled out here for a good while and read, enjoying the atmosphere thoroughly. I like it and I'll definitely return next time I'm in St Ives.

Voted by the Times as the second best place to eat Ice Cream in the UK…read more.. I don't know who came in first, but I can't argue with the fact that this is pretty tasty ice cream in a pretty gorgeous location. The Ice cream is produced in Zennor, a tiny village with 28 inhabitants which we had passed through while walking the Cornish Coastal Path. The company is family run and the ice cream is made from milk from Daisy, Primrose and Sid Vicious, and many other Friesian cows on Tremedda Farm. They then produce about 30 different flavours of ice cream and sorbet which it then sells through this little shop in St Ives. The shop itself is tiny with just a couple of small tables, however they still manage to serve cream teas and coffees along side the ice creams. Its situated right on the beach front so perfect for take away, particularly when the Cornish sun is shining. I went for the orange and mascarpone flavour which was simply divine. Would I like a free wafer with that? Of course, does anyone ever say no?! I would have to agree with the Times, certainly one of the best ice creams I have been lucky enough to taste. Send some up to Sussex please!

The cafe offers a great selection of food and drinks as well as housing a small souvenir shop. They also offer free wifi to paying customers, pick up the code at the cash desk. They have a prominent green policy (a rare thing in this area) with plenty of recycling facilities and a very thorough waste purifying unit in their lavatories - details on the back of the door! A great stop off point if you are walking the Cornish Coast, or just for refreshments if you are spending a day on the stunning beach at the Cove.

Run by a local family, it greatly enhances one's visit to Kynance's glorious beaches and caves. Bear in mind when checking the prices that the produce - along with the staff who must bicycle or walk or pay to use the road - has to be bought and, brought personally via a very long, steep and tortuous track; no possibility of discounted bulk deliveries here! Looking forward to lunching there again now the weather has turned soft. JXC Cadgwith

I booked here way in advance for our early September trip, we were seated on the open air balcony with Newquay marina as the back drop. It seemed a little chilly to be seated outside at this time of year, but lo and behold they already thought it out with plastic covers at both sides of the balcony and heaters right at every dining tables. Not only did it create a cozy ambiance but made it warm and comfortable as well. We started our dinner with salt and pepper calamari to share with a glass of Rose and I then ordered Brown crab with salad and fries on the side, while my partner ordered grilled pollock. The dishes were undoubtedly fresh and came out in timely fashion. It is beauty about traveling, discovering new places and truly enjoying it. This experience was made even more awesome due to the hospitality and great customer service from the staff. A must try if you happen to be in Newquay!

Very noisy and some loud buzzing sound coming from the kitchen. Music is on loud trying to cover the noise.. Not working lol. They had surf and turf. Surf was ok.. Turf was undercooked and no flavor. I had fish and chips. Big piece of fish and large chunks of chips. Will say I didn't try the peas. Fish was ok, flavorless batter tho. Our young server didn't seem like she wanted to wait on us, but figure that's because we are Americans. She only came to check on us once. Younger man was very friendly.

Didn't eat bread as am not a bread person but shell fish....yum. The menu didn't have dairy-free desserts so they made me dairy-free pavlova which was so absolutely perfect - I'm taking off my imaginary hat. Service was good - attentive and making me feel very welcome. If you're ever in Newquay - go for it.

The only thing she could eat here was chips. I had the mixed fish linguini, my partner had some chips and my daughter had the children's tomato linguini. The Fish was very special; freshly cooked prawns and lovely mussels. The linguini in both dishes was cooked to perfection. Service was quick and polite. The chips were amazing which was brilliant for my partner as all holiday she has seen everyone around her eat lovely food while all she could eat was the most basic things. The restaurant still has an old charm to it, it hasn't been polished into a chic modern restaurant, and I love it more for this.

I especially love their impressive array of flours, nuts and dried fruits and the the fact that they carry "Lizard Leaves" - baby greens grown by local farmers. Without a doubt, these are the freshest and most delectable baby greens I have ever eaten - and yes, you have to come all the way to Cornwall to find them. Also, they carry one of the best pasties in the UK...it may sound unbelievable, but it is true. Their pasties are made with spelt flour, vegetable oil (not lard) and the fillings are fresh and tasty without being overly salty. The result is a crispy, flavorful and delicious product that will win the heart of even the most demanding Brit. We have tasted every pasty in Falmouth and they are in the top three with the Cornish Miner and Presto. As a New Yorker, I have shopped in some of the finest and most lovingly tended health food stores around and The Natural Store is right up there with some of the best.
