Atlantic Coast Express in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We were walking from Padstow and took a diversion to have lunch here. It was well worth it with very tasty crepes and cakes. It was windy and a bit cloudy so the food and coffee was a very welcome treat. We carried on our long walk feeling well fed and positive we will return next time we visit Padstow. The chaps serving are very polite and it's definitely worth trying.

What a lovely place to have a coffee. We were cycling the camel trail and stopoed here on our way back. Great drink, very friendly people and beautiful views

Great cafe on the Camel Trail! we had coffee and crepes. Small independent and fun cafe with great views. Stopped in while on a cycle ride.

There are a lot of joggers and bicyclers so it’s in a nice area for people to relax and take a break. It was a very cute place and the kids loved it. In all, I highly recommend this place in Cornwall.

This is a lovely place to stop along the Camel Trail! We biked from Wadebridge to Padstow with the kids, and Atlantic Coast Express is halfway. The food and coffee was excellent, the service is lovely, and the views are beautiful.

A great snack stop right next to the river and cycle trail. Really friendly staff and crepes to die for.

Best brew of tea ever and always friendly service. Great view. Also pleased to see they do their bit for the environment.

We have travelled around the world this year and this is by far the best cup of tea we have had! No one else even asks what strength you prefer and it is brewed to your perfection

We visited the ACE while walking from Wadebridge to Padstow and then on the return. We only had drinks but would highly recommend a stop off at the cabin.

It was such an enjoyable evening in a unique setting , great food under the stars , we will definitely return.

Returning to Wadebridge on our bikes and had a lovely refreshing smoothie and delicious milkshake. They said they were open but actually they were closing but still more than happy to serve us for which we were very grateful. Will definitely stop next time hopefully during opening hours!

Fantastic place between wadebridge and Padstow on the camel trail great for a pit stop or chill out

Had a beautiful brie and cranberry crepe and strawberry milkshake . The staff were so polite and friendly. Will be back x

After deciding to walk the Camel trail from Padstow to Wadebridge with the dogs, finding the Atlantic Coast Express was like finding an oasis in the desert Great coffee friendly staff and fabulous views Excellent stop off

Amazing spot, beautiful views and service! Crepes are lovely and the cake is delicious! Loved the toot toot of your order being called and the soft reggae playing in the train carriage whilst they prepare your order! Only the trained ear would pick it up! Really worth a stop off.

Beautiful cuppa, had a caramel latte and it was lush. Staff were polite and nice. Would be good yo have toilets there.

Oh my oh my, what an amazing feast. The lobster was soooo delicious & the strawberry cheesecake, totally divine. These guys are amazing!

Really friendly, great coffee, and the most adorable whistle I’ve ever encountered at a cycling path-side cafe. I would wholeheartedly recommend a quick stop here.

Raced back from Wadebridge along the Camel Trail to stop for a crepe and we're disappointed to find they'd stopped cooking them despite it being almost an hour until they close! Couldn't believe they stopped serving so much in advance of closing 😡

Lovely service. Amazing food. The ice cream and crepes were delicious. Would definitely recommend and come back again.

Excellent service and food, lovely happy faces. The crepes were excellent, would certainly recommend it! 😊

Absolutely love our visits to ACE. We always make a point of calling in when we are in Padstow. The food, staff and location are all excellent. The Sunset Supper Club events are amazing. We would definitely recommend going to one of these events if...

We were so lucky with the weather, we had the most magical evening, eating delicious food, and watching the sun go down over the Camel estuary. We hired bikes from bridge bike hire and cycled to our supper.

This is amazing I think it is the best place to get food along the Camel Trail i do Coasters for All and it is a great place to go on a Friday when it is open as some people are not up to going...

Fabulous spot on the Camel Trail on the way to Padstow, great friendly service and the cakes are wonderful, thanks!

Fantastic spot on the camel trail. Delicious ice creams, great value and really friendly guy. Highly recommend 👌

Fantastic food, smoothies are to die for. Excellent customer care along with amazing views. You could not ask for more.

Lovely stop on the camel trail for an ice cream, or drink. Lush views with lovely staff, nothing was too much trouble despite being short staffed.

Great coffee, great cake, great ice-cream & probably the best customer service in Cornwall!! Dougal will keep you entertained & definitely brighten your day, we can’t recommend this place enough, it really is the perfect pit stop!!

It’s a cool spot to stop for drinks and snacks! There are nice seats to sit on and check out the view. Staff are very friendly & welcoming-thank you

This is a great place to stop on the Camel trail. Located between Padstow and Wadebridge it's ideal for a stop for coffee or lunch. It's eco friendly and has everything you need whether you're walking or cycling. Don't expect a gourmet meal. It's an...

What a lovely place to stop off on your bikes or walks to have a refreshing break. The Full Steam Ahead smoothie was just lush along with the peanut/flapjack bite. We stopped off following cycling the Camel Trail from Bodmin to Padstow The lady serving...

First class stopover cafe at a scenic location. Great, fun and creative service. The ice-cream and ice coffees were great. Thank you and good luck!

Great coffee, ice lollies, crepes and people! A must stop half way between padstow and Wadebridge. Highly recommended it

This is one of the best coffee tea and cake stops to be had. It’s so good a stop is hard to avoid. Service is great and staff are chatty and friendly.

Beautiful spot with lovely view. Great outdoor seating with shelter from sun (or rain ☔️) friendly staff and great menu/drinks selection x x

The supper clubs are always amazing, the ACE team make you feel so welcome and the food is delicious. The setting is stunning, both the view and the actual sun setting!! really fun to ride down there on our bikes too. We will definitely be...

The weather helped - but the atmosphere and the food were what made it really work. Gordon and his team were relaxed, engaging, and engaged. By coincidence, the couple next to us knew one of our party - so we made new friends as well!...

Even though the coffee train was not officially open, the love man who was just there on a cleaning day took pity on 6 soaking wet women! We'd ventured along the camel trail to experience the excellent coffee we'd first tasted last year, only to...

Fantastic service! Tea and cake served to us in squally weather, just when we needed it! Thank you so much.

A welcome break half way between Padstow and Wadebridge. Waited a long time for a crepe and it wasn’t worth it… not cooked properly. I’ve cream was good though.

This is a little gem of a place. Although we don't visit Cornwall often, we always make a beeline for here when we are visiting. The coffee is superb and the crepes are really scrummy! The staff are so friendly and welcoming and went out...

BRILLIANT service, quirky and with an excellent sense of humour. Made a fuss of, and involved son and given a pack of seeds for a lovely competition. Really made us smile. Love how they go the extra mile and blow a train whistle when order...

Best coffee I’ve had since arriving in UK. Really friendly service too. Perfect little stop on the bike ride. Thanks guys.

Dougal Kelly & Co run a first class enterprise ! Lovely coffee, cakes and crepes - all organic and homemade ! Service with a beautiful smile !

Lovely little stop off for our cycle on the camel trail! Amazing friendly service and highly recommend the carrot cake 😋

Ideallic spot on the Camel Trail to have a cuppa and a crepe with extremely friendly staff and exceptional service. Including a lovely train whistle to tell you food is ready! Was impressed they even took the time to ask about how strong I’d like...

Top-class, friendly and fun service + great tasting ice cream with great views to boot. Well worth having a stop off here!

Been our must visit eatery for years since our first crepe from their tricycle in the car park at Padstow. Always had a genuinely warm welcome from everyone who’s worked there, now in a superb position in the camel trail between Wadebridge and Padstow. If...

We came upon this place whilst cycling from Wadebridge to Padstow along the Camel Trail. Excellent service, good coffee and amazing crepes. A lovely spot for a break.

A lovely tea shop on the camel trail with great views over the estuary. Very easy going and friendly team delivering much needed fuel and water. Everyone should stop and pop in

Pre booked summer supper club and cycled down from Wadebridge. Lovely friendly welcoming evening, sharing chat with folks around up and eating the most delicious grilled mackerel then dessert. Really great way to spend a summers evening.

Fantastic place - extremely friendly, great selection of food and drinks and amazing views. We were away as a family to celebrate my Dad’s 80th and decided to cycle the Camel Trail (including my Dad!). The Trail is stunning from start to finish but to...

Really Great coffee. Made with care, best of our trip. Lovely location, great surprise. Would make it a planned stop next time we explore the camel trail

Superb cafe, super food and drinks, with delightful friendly and efficient service. We couldn’t ask for more in a cafe; thank you!

Lovely spot, we had a coffee, cake and a smoothie. Smoothie was delicious and so refreshing. Hats off to the man working on his own doing an amazing job despite it being busy and no wonder being so lovely! We will definitely be back! 10/10!

Great coffee, lovely moist flapjack. A very welcome stop on the Camel Trail. What more can I say other than I have some characters to fill the review with.

I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Between our family we had smoothies, ice cream, cream teas, coffees and crepes. All fresh and absolutely delicious and with really personal friendly service. I’d happily ride the camel trail again specifically so I could stop here and...

I can’t comment on the food but I can on the character of the proprietor. My son broke his arm (we thought *just* dislocated) on the Camel Trail on the hottest weekend in July and we were rescued from a long ambulance wait by an...

There really is no better pit stop along the camel trail, fantastic hot & cold beverages, ice creams, crepes and so much more....the best service in Cornwall by a country...

Excellent service definitely a highlight of the trip so far. A 'performance' to look forward too. And the coffee was greaf

Came across this lovely pit stop on the Camel Trail with the loveliest ,friendliest guys. The cream tea was the best with scones made with the help of his young daughter,and being a tea drinker who likes a very quick tea bag dunk it was...

We cannot even describe how heavenly this ice cream was! We didn’t want it to end and would happily pause time in that moment! The mystery flavour won my heart and if I was richer I would have had seconds! It was incredible! The melted...

Good stop on the Camel Trail, good coffee and cakes. Friendly staff.,reasonable prices, quick service

The perfect pit stop on our camel trail bike ride! The ice cream was the best on the trip (and we had alot of ice cream!) and the smoothie was really good. I went for the mystery guest ice cream and was not disappointed! The...

We are long term yearly frequenters of this stop (and their previous incarnation, where they sold a similar menu from the back of a trike). The coffee is lovely, the cakes home baked, and my bacon and egg pie today, with a apple, melon, kale...

First time along the Camel Trail and happily discovered the Atlantic Coast Express. Great range of niche quality products - not the standard - served by very attentive staff. Had to stop off in both directions!

Great cofee and treats as always on the Camel Trail today at the Atlantic Coast Express buffet car! What a great jem! Will be back again next year for sure.

We spent a wonderful afternoon cycling in to Padstow , and then back out towards Weybridge for ice cream at the Atlantic Coast Express with our two sons (5&7). This was a hugely enjoyable stop off, with fantastic views across to Rock and the Camel...

We stopped here on our way back on the camel trail. The man that served us was absolutely lovely! We had 3 smoothies and they were amazing!! The best ones we have had yet on our trip- my son told the staff members that himself!...

Stopped here for a quick coffee on a long cycle ride. Really lovely view but the real pull is the friendly service and the delicious coffee. Definitely worth a stop!

We had a great ride along the Camel Trail and highly recommend a pit stop at the Atlantic Coast Express. Thank you for excellent friendly service today and fantastic coffee. By far the best coffee we’ve had in a while.

Best caramel latte I’ve ever had. Such a nice little stop for a coffee and a cake, lovely guys too! Worth the stop rain or shine.. was pouring today!

I cycle from Wadebridge to Padstow every morning (Weather permitting) and on the way back I always stop for a drink. The coffee is excellent and of the best quality and you can see it has been made with loving care. The service is always...

A unusual title taken from the customer behind us who also stumbled across this mirage on whilst walking the Camel Trail between Padstow and Wadebridge. Perfectly placed half way along the trail with lots of seating and a good selection of drinks, cakes and ice...

On our wonderful bike ride along the Camel Trail, we decided to stop at a beautiful cafe along the way for a coffee. My son, (who is rather fussy to say the least), had recently tried a smoothie he loved, and although Ace Cafe didn't...

I have a very fussy little boy who does not like anything so to have a banana and Nutella crepe was perfect for him His twin sister loved her ham and cheese crepe. Thanks for making the camel experience outstanding

We cycled the Camel trail on Saturday and stopped at this cafe in both directions - excellent coffee on the outbound and delicious ice cream on the return. It's great to see such creativity in building a cafe from an old goods wagon and really...

This cafe is based in a converted railway freight wagon (fitting in nicely with its position on the former railway line) and is roughly mid way between Padstow and Wadebridge - as such it's perfectly located for a quick stop for a cup of tea...

Visited again this year while doing the Camel Trail. Still the best! Amazing hit chocolate and coffee and my personal favourite, lemon drizzle cake. Also got a cool key ring so I can remember this awesome place when I get home. The guys who run...

Based in a converted railway freight truck, midway along the camel trail. This would be a welcome break if it only did tea coffee and cans. Menu is much better great selection of savoury and seeet crepes, Ice creams and good coffee, all the while...

Quite a few years ago, this (or something similar) was a man with a rickshaw-style portable coffee and cake company. The coffee and cake then was delicious. Whether or not ACE is the same company (it’s in the same location) I don’t know, but the...

We stopped at the Atlantic Coast Express for some ice cream and I can confidently say it is the BEST ice cream in Cornwall, being local and a big ice cream fan we’ve tried them all!! My husband and sons enjoyed it so much they...

The location overlooking the estuary is great but here you can surely find the worst Cornish ice cream in the country...

Highly recommended. Stopped off there last year and thought it was fab(I am a bit of coffee snob!) so was sooooo happy it was still there when I returned yesterday with my dad,sisters and her fiance (who may retrain as a fireman now..... Inside joke)....

What a welcome refreshment surprise perfectly situated on the Camel Trail. Great latte, yummy crepes, healthy smoothies and friendly accommodating staff. We stopped on the way to Padstow from Wadebridge and again on the way back cause the coffee was so good. They also offer...

We stopped at least a dozen times prior to reaching this wonderful pitstop on our way from Wadebridge to Padstow. We convinced Tom that the Mooh Shakes would give him extra leg power and the guys working there helped us with our story. Needless to...

The Atlantic Coast Express is like an Oasis in the desert. Approx halfway between Wadebridge and Padstow and a lovely place to stop. We had savoury crepes on the way there and a coffee on the way back. Great quality, good value and really friendly...

Stopped here on our way down the Camel Trail. Brilliant little cafe! Friendly staff, lovely homemade drinks and food. Highly recommend!

Just visited the Atlantic Coast Express after a happy couple of hours cycling up and down the Camel Trail. What a lovely team and a great selection of treats. Couldn’t fault it. Smoothies, crepes and Ice Cream was our choice, but I was tempted by...

The refurbished railway truck at Atlantic Coast Express is a lovely retro location with a great cuppa. We had a reviving brew on our bike trip from Padstow back to Wadebridge. Highly recommend!

The ACE cafe is an ethical business serving delicious drinks and snacks all served using recyclable materials. You must try their Mooh shakes......our daughter Florence thought this was the best cold drink ever! The business has been built up over recent years and I am...

A very welcome rest halfway on our cycle ride.. Such friendly ladies remembered us on the way back ... Just a special place... I would love to come back for their eve sessions.... Thanks

We were walking the Camel Trail and came across the Atlantic Coast Express about half way between Wadebridge and Padstow. A very welcome refreshment stop, the only one on the Trail. I had salted caramel ice cream which was delicious. Reasonable prices and they recycle....

A first class supper prepared by two local chefs served at the ACE carriage between Padstow and Wadebridge on the Camel Trail. Beautiful views of the River, excellent food and good company. A very enjoyable evening. An experience not to be missed! There is a...

As the title say's, good views, friendly service and nice coffee, great location and a nice use of an old buffet car, but the reason for three stars is dry, unimaginative crepes that taste like cardboard, we shared the feta and olive one if you...

We visited ACE today to see Mark Dawe working hard! It's a lovely place to stop off after a walk along the Camel trail from Padstow. We all had hot drinks and I luckily had a flat white. I love coffee and this was at...

This cafe sells a really yummy range of food, including crepes with various fillings and ice creams in fabulous flavours. I stopped to refuel with tea and lemon drizzle, “a marriage made in heaven”. Its an ideal turnaround point if you started the trail at...

A very welcome sight while cycling on the Camel Trail. Atlantic Coast Express serve quality coffee and snacks and the staff are very friendly and helpful. A little gem on the Trail.

Amazing little cafe . Stopped for drink and cake while on the trail way . Lovely , friendly and set in a amazing location.
