Beacon Coffee in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Best coffee in Cornwall ! We loved! Thank you! we will came back soon!

Great little coffee shop. Very knowledgeable staff. Maybe not the cheapest... But if you love coffee the Beacon is worth a visit if you're in Falmouth.

I wanted to buy a gift for someone but I live some distance away. I dropped them a message which they responded to straight away and was met with someone who was genuinely really friendly and helpful. Shame I can't sample the goods myself but still deserving of a 5 star review ❤️

Absolutely sensational coffee and service!

Best Café in this area. Cappuccino is delicious!

Amazing coffee, great and friendly staff 👍

This place is for the coffee lovers, with weekly or fortnightly changing coffee menu. Its like a lottery, always excited to try something new. The staff are always welcoming with the finest coffees you can get your hands on around here and some delicious cakes. Nothing short of funky coffees, always have something special for the adventurous and something classic to be safe. Once you get used to these flavours, there is no turning back to regular coffees... ever. You have been warned. :D Highly recommended. 👌

A damn fine cup of coffee, friendly service, plus the tunes were 👌

Amazing coffee and service. Cakes looked great too

Delicious coffee, great service!

Just had a latte and cappuccino along either a summer fruits raspberry and coconut slice. The coffee was delicious, and my partner said the slice was good too.

Hands down one of the best coffees I’ve ever had. Nice cakes and pastries too. Lovely staff and great environment. Really please to have stumbled upon this spot!

Excellent coffee, really friendly service and snacks were amazing. Chocolate brownie was out of this world, would recommend. Great place to stop for a coffee and snack.

Super friendly team with lots of options for espresso, filter and batch brew. As well as some lovely pan au chocolates. We had a lovely filter with a Kenyan coffee. Would definitely come back again

Staff were really friendly, attentive and knowledgable. The coffee was the best I have ever had! The coffee was perfectly made with no bitter taste at all and a rich, smooth flavour. We bought a bag from the store that they will grind for you there which was really handy. Definitely a must go for coffee when in Falmouth.

We've been coming here for the last 3 years when on holiday, it still remains the best coffee we've ever tried. The soft serve espresso with little brownie bits is also delicious! Really friendly team who always make us (and our dog) feel very welcomed ☺️

Not so much a dash, more a welcome rest with the most delicious ginger custard cream and a perfect, rich coffee. And coffee served at a great temperature too. Good to come across cafes who can serve a coffee you can drink from the off. Oh, and dog friendly to boot. Thank you for your hospitality!

Amazing staff and delicious coffee !!!!

Superb coffee. I’m a proper bean buff and this was one of the nicest I’ve ever had. Cheers!

Great little place. Wonderful coffee and unusual cakes. Very knowledgeable about origin of coffee and helpful with recommendation. Couldn't be more helpful.

Melbourne quality coffee. Ozone London slurp your heart out :)

Delicious coffee with a choice of bean. Small, independent cafe. Takeaway available.

Nothing but perfection. Took the coffee to the top of the hill, where there are some stunning views

Best coffee and very friendly staffs Please open a coffee shop in London 🥰🙏 We really enjoyed your coffee

Friendly staff, great coffee, clean toilets and a nice touch to get a carafe of water with it. Cakes looked good but we didn't try them

A bright and modern space complemented by natural plants where you will enjoy exceptional coffee. Friendly and engaging team. Lush pastries. 10 coffee styles and range of bean choices. 🇬🇧🇳🇿

amazing coffee and amazing service. one of the best coffee shops i’ve visited

Grabbed two take out coffees (Oat latte and a short black) both absolutely delicious. Choice of two beans flavour profile explained very well by friendly staff. Will 100% come back.

Brilliant coffee and very accommodating of dogs too

Friendly staff with OUTSTANDING coffee. Strongly suggest trying both their Colombian and Guatemalan coffee beans.

Great coffee, lovely staff. Sensible prices .

The coffee here is very good but its not a place to linger as its very small inside and you can find yourself being pushed as people try to get past. There is a very small step going down towards the back that I tripped on. A very elderly lady did so immediately after I had. I said to the young man who was delivering someone's coffee that it might help to put the tape down that alerts people to this. I said this in a friendly way but the young man answered me in an abrupt manner saying "We are too busy to do this right now". A very odd response as I was hardly expecting him to run out and buy the tape immediately. Whether or not they actually get around to doing it remains to be seen. I was left with the impression that they are a bit up themselves. The other thing I found off putting was two people smoking right in the open doorway.

I have a new favourite coffee shop. Not just the best coffee in Falmouth but probably the best coffee I've had since I was last in Italy 💖

Incredible coffee, super knowledgeable guys, thanks for the coffee advice :)

Truly excellent coffee and great, knowledgeable service. Very highly recommended.

Very friendly and knowledgable staff, excellent coffee. No coffee shop can justify 50p (about 16% extra!) for swapping to oat milk. Get with the times.

Great service and even better coffee - make sure to try the espresso soft serve!

Cute small coffee spot, staff were happy to chat to me and my dad about the machine and the beans. Unpretentious and really, really delicious coffee.

Stopped here this morning for a coffee and it was absolutely brilliant! I was talked through the three options of beans available and their flavour profile and the coffee matched this perfectly! I will be back before I leave my holiday here

So good that my coffee loving husband got a cup each time he walked past.

I was sceptical of the five stars at first, but it is really very good coffee.

Great tasting coffee - can choose between two blends of beans. Nice atmosphere and friendly service

Great coffee & cake at one of the most engaging and wonderful coffee shops I've ever visited. Being talked through the flavour profiles of the different roasts on offer was great and made a real difference that sets these guys apart from the competition.

It doesn’t need too many words: amazing coffee, really friendly and welcoming service. They’ve got it right. Simple as that. Love it.

Incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. Well made and tasty coffee, provided a bottle of water without asking. Will definitely be returning for another visit.

Incredibly friendly staff, well made coffees. Definitely will be returning

Friendly welcoming staff , great coffee and teas , nice coffee bar. Well fitted out in interesting street of independent shops .

A must is the ‘ one and one’ - single espresso, single shot flat white and cold water trio. Best flat white, both in flavour and texture. Great selection of pastries/cakes too. Also had to try the hot chocolate which was the smoothest ever. Great ambience and service too.

Great coffees and really friendly staff. Was offered choice of two different beans and went for Ethiopian one which was delicious!

Wonderful coffee experience- the ask you what kind of beans you would prefer, which I’ve never actually had asked before(and ive been to some fairly ditzy london cafes in my time), and for a coffee nut I was so pleasantly surprised . 3.10 for a Latte may be steep(ish) for a student- but I have quite literally budgeted to try out as many cafes in fal as possible while I’m here- and given the quality of service and product, the price is more than fair. so far Beacon is winning ;) defo coming back

Superb coffee and a really lovely vibe. Friendly team as well. Great stop for coffee and cake.

Popped into the Beacon following a recommendation from the another shop owner. What a find. Great coffee/tea and really fresh cakes and pastries. They were especially welcoming to a couple of old wrinkles. Thanks for a lovely comfort stop.

Up there with one of the best flat whites I've had.

Outstanding and friendly service in a chic, quaint, modern coffee shop. Coffee and cake were also excellent.

came in today for an oat flat white. so blown away by the coffee here !!! server was absolutely wonderful, such a warm welcome !! beacon is a happy, pretty environment !!! will definitely be a regular here !! 🤠☕

Superb. Best coffee I’ve had in Cornwall.

I love Beacon Coffee - they definitely do the best coffee in Cornwall!

Popped in for a filtered v60 coffee and latte with the family. Great friendly atmosphere with amazing customer service. The V60 coffee was spot on and hit the high notes in favours. The latte was super tasty I was informed by my wife, that I had one after my v60 coffee and she wasn’t wrong. Certainly recommend this independent coffee shop and is well named. It’s a beacon to head for when it comes to coffee.

Such lovely coffee - the Ethiopian drip is gorgeous!

Fantastic coffee! Dog friendly too 🐾

I'll start by saying: I'm a coffee guy. I've spent almost £5k on my own machines at home. I love coffee. This is the best coffee in Falmouth. I visit to buy beans and have a flat white every time I walk into town. They have a constantly refreshed variety of coffees from specialty roasters around the world, and they have a good knack for choosing the best. The passion for coffee is clear in their expert knowledge and it's shown in the taste of the drinks. Bottom line: If you fancy a coffee right now, or want to buy some grounds/beans for home use, this is the best place in town and you will not be disappointed. Cons: They shut at 2:30pm most days and I sometimes work nights so they're shut once I'm ready for my coffee!

Great coffee great people. What makes Beacon special is they serve coffee from a variety of roasters meaning you get a different, but always incredible, flavour experience every time.

Best coffee in Falmouth, hands down. Rotating coffee means you're always trying something new. And the sweet treats from Freya are incredible!

Always delicious coffee, friendly staff, relaxed spot.

Coffee perfection in a nice little bustling cafe with very nice staff. I can see why the cafe is busy with coffee this good with a couple of suberb beans on offer & a decaf option. A La Marzocco in place, the king of the coffee machine world, these guys don't skimp. A small selection of high quality pastries & cakes available, perhaps a few plain croissants would have been nice to see personally. Good luck guys, keep doing what you're doing.

Fantastic! Flat white was spot on. Staff friendly and know how to make a perfect coffee. My 2 year old loved her babychino too. Highly recommended.

Really nice coffee shop with two types of high quality coffee to choose from. Small selection of good cakes and other pastries available.

Very delightful friendly coffee shop .great service and we'll worth a visit

I just had the best coffee of my week in Falmouth. Strongly recommend that if you like Barista made coffees you stop here. Also the latte art was pretty cool too. Regret not taking a photo to share.

My wife and I popped into this specialist coffee shop whilst visiting Falmouth, and had a lovely batch brewed V60 for two served in a carafe. Not only did it taste fantastic, it was very reasonably priced, especially when compared to what you get in most other coffee shops. In fact, most other coffee shops don’t even offer pour over coffee. The shop is shop itself is modern and smart, and the service was great.

A little gem at the far end of town Well worth the stroll. Raspberry tart and carrot cake - both light and delicious Coffee very good too. 2 different blends.

Nowadays it’s not so rare to find a good coffee shop. Good coffee is available everywhere so I feel like coffee shops have had to up their game. But good decaf is still hard to find. So if you’re in Falmouth and you’re looking for good decaf, look no further. A deliciously creamy, not too strong but not too weak, iced, oat milk, decaf latte. Oh, and the brownie with white chocolate was delicious too.

Very friendly and great Coffee shop with nice sweets as well, nice and polite stuff. Highly recommend

Spent a few days in Maenporth and visited Beacon on most days because the coffee was so great and the friendly customer service excellent.. I took my cousin and her husband who were down on holiday with us and she was not a coffee drinker at all, as she found them too bitter. I explained that ‘Beacon’ coffee would be a different and Alex and Sam explained the process and the reason behind her bitter coffee experience. Anyway, she tried a one shot Cortado and she was amazed at how sweet and lovely the coffee was and we visited Beacon for coffee over the next 3 days. She, now understands what a good coffee should taste like. Thanks Beacon.

Best coffee in town with a smile

One of the best coffee shops in Cornwall and certainly my favourite in Falmouth. Always a good selection of cakes available too.

Outstanding coffee. Best coffee I had in Cornwall all week, by miles.

Outstanding coffees and pastries. Staff are really good.

Batch brew and the latte were excellent. Choice of pastries were limited and supermarket quality unfortunately. Strangely still takeaway only despite the pandemic rules relaxing.

Best coffee I have ever had! Staff were super friendly, nice pastries, everything was at a good price. Drank the coffee on the pier just around the corner. 10/10 experience!

have the coffee sour it was the best coffee i’ve ever had!!

It's good coffee with friendly service. I drink a cappuccino and do find thier beans a little soft in flavor for this type of drink. (Even when choosing the strongest bean on offer)

Serves really great coffee, from an unusual selection of beans. Please seek this place out when you are in Falmouth. Forever Costa or Starbucks, try some real coffee ☕☕☺️

Beacon is the best speciality coffee shop in Cornwall, don’t give it a miss! • Although they’re only operating as a takeaway at the moment, the service is just as personal and always relaxed. There’s a fab selection of cakes to pair with your favourite...

Brilliant coffee.. served with a smile.. must try in Falmouth

Really friendly, delicious sweet treats and coffee for takeaway. It looks gorgeous inside too.

Just had the best delivery in the post today! A bag of delicious coffee beans from Beacon Coffee. Ordered only yesterday, arrived this morning. Great service yet again! Not being able to visit the shop as often as we’d like, ordering online is easy and...

Sun’s out and headed to the Beacon of coffee. Without doubt the best coffee and service in town and at a reasonable price. Thanks guys, it was worth travelling down from Plymouth for the day.

Best coffee in Falmouth, the guys are so nice and friendly too :)

Great coffee, great space, great service.

Great service and v tasty coffee ☕

Best in town and super awesome service

Visiting the area from Kent on a week's holiday in Cornwall. Without doubt, the BEST coffee in Falmouth. Nothing like this where we're from. Love it. If you're after a coffee, come here.

Loveliest staff and the best coffee in Fal

This is the best coffee in Falmouth hands down! The coffee is superb, you can really taste the difference between good and bad coffee. The owner and service is great despite Covid restrictions.

Superb coffee and wonderful service! I showed up just before closing and still took the time to talk me through the coffee beans. Best coffee in Cornwall s far

Amazing coffee, had an oat flat white and it was delicious and served with a smile 😊 Even had the option of two espresso blends, top!

Delicious coffee - really worth paying extra for if you need to as very different from the chains. Very friendly and definitely a place to come back to often.

Excellent tasting coffee, great service and fair prices = 5 stars for me.

Just love coming to Falmouth and heading for Coffee at Beacon. The drive from Plymouth isn’t that far, when you think of the reward. The service even during this COVID 19 period is top notch and you feel safe in ordering your take away coffee....
