"You'll soon find that any restaurant in the Porthminster collection is sure to be a hit but there's no better than the flagship. Porthminster Beach Cafe can be found on the beach and it's worth enjoying the walk to the restaurant whilst you're staying in our luxury self catering cottages as you get to take in the whole of the town along the way. With views to die for and the cuisine falling into a similar category you'll find yourself wanting to go back every time you come to St Ives."

"Porthminster is another beautiful beach that boasts exquisite views of the rolling white sand and clear blue sea. So, of course, Porthminster Café has views that reflects this!. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor dining that is again just a few metres from the sand being between your toes and although you may not be eating early enough in the morning to catch the sunrise on this beach, it certainly is one of the best morning sun spots."

"Hidden away on the beach of Porthgwidden is the smallest of the Porthminster collection of restaurants, but by no means does it not offer the same exceptional quality. Perfect for a bite to eat, a relaxing drink by the sea or a night out Porthgwidden is the closest restaurant to our luxury self catering accommodation, so what are you waiting for?.

"There’s no surprise here, Porthgwidden Beach is another special location for many. This small but sweet cove sits perfectly between Porthmeor and Bamaluz beach and, if you are in need of some serious vitamin sea whilst enjoying some wonderfully fresh sea food, Porthgwidden Beach Café is the spot for you!. If you’re sat in their outside area, you’ll be able to smell the fresh sea air from your very seat."

"The SILCo Searoom (formerly know as plain “Searoom” and “The Tearoom”) is right on the harbour overlooking the beach. It is a lovely, modern but rustic looking cafe with chunky wood furniture. Their coffee and cake is wonderful (I highly recommend their coffee and walnut cake) and the staff are extremely lovely!"

Top 10 Budget Restaurants and Cafes in Newquay
"The easy way to get here is from East Pentire (the cafe’s car park is between bungalows on Newquay’s western headland); the long way is to cross the river Gannel via gorgeous Crantock beach: at low tide, paddle through the sandy shallows; when the water’s up, climb aboard the Fern Pit’s own ferry. Either way, you arrive at a ramshackle boathouse shop (a curious mix of beach kit, souvenirs and tanks of live of crabs and lobsters), before taking a long flight of steps that meanders through a wild cliff garden to the cafe, run by the Northey family since 1910. The food may not be the finest (think jacket potatoes and cheese and pickle) but it is well worth the climb for the views, the chickens in the garden, the rustic picnic tables and the fresh crab sandwiches (£7.25) made with crab caught and landed by the Northey family’s own fishing boat.• Cakes from £1.25, sandwiches from £4.50."

"Open throughout the summer months, the Fern Pit is located on the bank of the River Gannel between East Pentire headland and Crantock Beach, a secluded little hideaway serving fresh crab sandwiches using a ready supply of shellfish caught and landed by its very own fishing boat. The garden’s ample seating is a great place to enjoy lunch on a sunny day, with a takeaway service also available, and a convenient ferry service runs from the dock below the café if you fancy a walk on Crantock beach. The foot bridge is free to use if the tide is out too."

"The child and dog friendly Scoff Troff Café has fast earned a great reputation in St Ives. Whether you’re having a Croque Madame at breakfast, a New York Salad at lunch, tucking into their Italian inspired evening menu at dinner or simply swinging by for an indulgent slice of cake coupled with a coffee, any member of the family can feel at home in the bright, fun and friendly atmosphere of the Scoff Troff Café. With good sized tables and baby changing facilities, Scoff Troff is suitable for both very young and older children and while you’re there you might also be lucky enough to meet Kodie, The Scoff Troff’s own resident pooch who holds pride of place at the front of the café to welcome visitors."

"09/06/2021: We arrived at this restaurant without a booking since we read on the website that they weren't taking any reservations, only walk-ins, and were deeply disappointed when they said they were fully booked inside. Luckily, there were a couple of tables outside and we decided to stay. The food was very nice and we really enjoyed it, but the whole experience was a bit tainted by the fact that we didn't know we could book because of incorrect information on the website and therefore ended up eating in front of a busy street.Would go back if we could eat inside."
