Arch Cafe at Kresen Kernow in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Fantastic for a drop in snack or a full lunch. Also recently catered for 50 people for us at an event. Top quality food and service.

Probably the best breakfast/ brunch in the area! Absolutely delicious food, great flavour combinations and nice twist on some classics. Service was fast and friendly, and the tea was lovely too. Very competitive prices as well, and to top it off a very interesting location. Will definitely be going back to try more of the menu!

Came here on the hoof looking for breakfast. It was well reviewed (although not that many of them) but the food looked good and specials on FB sounded tasty. We were not disappointed! Drink came- coffee full flavoured and hot (win!). Partner had eggs benedict and I had banana bread (that's putting it very simply). It was absolutely delicious. Just the right amount portion wise, very reasonably priced. I don't understand why it's quiet here on a Saturday morning!- not complaining too much though as service very quick and atmosphere lovely. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Went to lunch with a friend as she as never been here. Delicious food hot drinks great menu

Michal provided a delicious meal for our private party of 100 people. He listened to all our requests and offered a choice of vegan and Halal curries with a scrumptious vegan brownie dessert for a very reasonable price. The café was a beautiful setting for our event and the service was faultless. Thank you so much - we will definitely be back!

I was treated to a superb meal at Arch Cafe during a private evening event held at Kresen Kernow. Every single item in the hot buffet was vegan, delicious, full of flavour, nutritious ,designed and cooked with passion. We all loved it.

We love this cafe. I highly recommend to everyone.

Sadly not impressed. Visited just for coffee, oat milk nit available for coffee, which wasn't very hot. Lady on next table asked for some more milk for her pot of tea, not allowed any more! What??? Sorry, definitely not good enough. Won't be going back.

Fantastic food! Ordered for a group of 8 people with some specific dietary requirements. The food was delicious and beautifully presented and the dietary requirements were all catered for perfectly. We will definitely come back.

Fantastic food, a beautiful spacious cafe and lovely service. We will definitely be back!

My friend and I came here for the first time today and we will definitely be back. I had the giant scone and my friend had the American pancakes. The food is beautifully presented, reasonably priced and excellent quality. It's a lovely spacious cafe.

I had the best American pancakes, with maple syrup, the crispiest bacon, cheese and egg. It was absolutely divine and every bite was delicious. Great range of food and drinks for all. It is fantastic value for money, I can't wait to come back and try more of your tasty looking brunches. They do different specials every week and there are cake options available also. My friend had the largest scone I have ever seen, it looked incredible and such good value for money. Can't wait to come back and keep trying your food 😋

Lovely homemade cakes. Their American pancakes are unreal! The coffee is good as well, especially their Brazilian variety. Definately good stop for a brunch.

Delicious food and excellent, friendly service. I chose the omelette which was perfectly cooked and my daughter had a breakfast roll. She said it was absolutely delicious, particularly the vegetable patty. Coffee is also good. We’ll definitely be visiting this café more often.

The food and service are excellent, it is a lovely place and it really like it at the Arch Cafe. The chef's food is delicious.

Fabulous!! What a gem. Breakfast all made fresh to order and delicious. Interesting location, we will definitely be coming back.

Really delicious food, we've been there a few times, contrary to the review below, they do have cakes and they are really good. The food does look like the photos, a lot of care is taken into the presentation. I can highly recommend the sweet potato soup served with a bit of blue cheese and seeds, an amazing flavor combination. Also recommend waffles with fruit, the courgette fritters, the apricot cake and the blueberry cake. The owners are always friendly and the Kresen is a beautiful space.

The food served in this café is truly delicious - well worth a visit!

Absolutely awful coffee no cakes to speak of and the photos are made up as the food doesn't look like it. Staff that are unhelpful, don't bother. I left my coffee and we left and went to gold centre and enjoyed a proper meal.

So pleased that someone has taken on this cafe at Kresen Kernow, fabulous historic and beautiful setting which we watched being created and the cafe is the icing on the cake. My friend and I had a BLT each, loaded with mountains of delicious bacon and in GF bread for me which was not a problem for the chef. The coffee was excellent too. We shall definitely be back and I hope more Redruth residents use this amazing facility too.

Kresen Kernow is great, so it's fitting the café is delightful too. Good coffee, and tasty food – including some really unusual and delicious specials alongside favourites like BLT. (Also: loads of great GF, vegetarian, and vegan options.) I was tempted by the Slovakian haluśky (bacon, spring onions, and paprika on potato dumplings) and I'm so glad I tried it. Yum! This café is a gem; an excellent choice whether you're already heading to Kresen Kernow to study and see the exhibitions, or you're just in Redruth and want something different – good food in a vibrant, calm, and inclusive setting.

We had lunch here for my Husband's Birthday on a very rainy day so we wanted to stay local. The cafe is inside the Heritage Centre & is light, airy & historic. There was a very inventive menu & unusually lots of choice for us being Vegetarian/Vegan although the menu is not exclusively veggie. My Husband had the Grilled Halloumi with water melon salad & I had the Quinoa and Tofu balls with spiced tomato sauce & courgette and carrot noodles - both were absolutely delicious! The cakes equally so - Banana Bread with Blueberries & Fresh Mango cake. The prices were very reasonable too, our only niggle is that card payments were preferred & we had cash as it was a Birthday treat but that is personal preference I suppose. So pleased that this lovely place is on our doorstep & we will definitely be back to try some of the other tempting dishes. Bravo to all involved!
