Cafe Widemouth in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I am writing this review so you can see the Menu and Silly prices that this place charges. They really do have the commodity to charge whatever they like due to their location next to Widemouth Bay Beach. £2.50 for 2 pieces of bread toast seriously?? The queque's are mad and outside tables need clearing more often. Watched an old guy pull up to get a coffee for him and his Wife and then after seeing the queque and price decided not to bother. If you kept prices more reasonable you would have even more Custom! We won't be back.

Wouldn’t bother, honestly i had extremely high expectations for this cafe when reading the reviews. I ordered a veggie breakfast, cup of tea and a slice of the vegan coconut flapjack. I sat down on one of the tables inside, unfortunately it was sticky and dirty which wasnt the best first impression. I requested some sanitiser to wipe it down however i was ignored by a member of their staff. The flapjack tasted as if it had just come out the freezer (completely flavourless), the tea was nice however i asked for soya milk and i recieved regular cows milk (i saw them pouring it on the counter behind). The breakfast was mediocre at best however could have been better if there wasnt a pink hair on the side of it. Overall, i believe this place could be nice, just a huge shame due to the beautiful location of it.

We've passed this cafe before but it's always been packed. We had the best coffee we've had this week. The carrot cake was delicious too. Great views of the beach. The staff were helpful.

Great location overlooking the beach, staff really friendly. Had a cream tea, warm scones jam and lashings of clotted cream, delicious. Coffee was lovely too also reasonably priced.

Pit stop on our walk from Upper Lynstone. Really welcoming and friendly staff. Great coffee. The bacon and sausage baps looked great - I will return and try one of those !

I arrived shortly after opening and was exhausted after a long drive. No one was at the counter but I could hear voices in the kitchen area. After a while no one came out so I called to see if anyone was serving. I waited a bit longer and still no one appeared. After a while an older woman came to the counter and stood opposite me playing on her phone. I said hello and was ignored. I spoke to her again and was ignored whilst she played on her phone. I couldn't believe how rude she was so I picked up a menu and tore it in half right in front of her, threw it on the counter, and she still ignored me. Needless to say I walked out and will never return to such a rude, unfriendly cafe. For what its worth the menu was also sticky.

Wow! What a great location for breakfast. Stunning views of the bay whilst enjoying top quality food and service. I dropped in for breakfast at just after 10.00 a.m, would have gone earlier if I had known it was open. I sat outside with my dog, after ordering a Widdy breakfast, The table buzzer to locate you is a clever idea! Food came quickly delivered to the table (announced by buzzer). It was well presented and looked delicious! Best breakfast I had during my stay in Cornwall. Bacon was excellent quality, and the egg cooked to perfection. I didn’t leave a morsel. I will be back! Dog friendly place inside and out, menu catered for all and prices really reasonable. Thank you for your warm welcome and great service.

We walked to Widemouth from Bude and we were glad of the warm refuge of the Widemouth Cafe. Its situated just of the beach with great views of the ocean. I ordered food with a new /trainer employee who was excellent and made a great Latte. We all ate a different meal. I had the breakfast stack who was really tasty. My youngest had the Widdy Breakfast (a cooked breakfast served all day) my wife had the fish finger open sandwich from the specials board. This was no normal fish finger sandwich it was fresh goujons of cod freshly battered to perfection on site chips and salad too. My eldest had the Veggie chilli fries. Fries loaded with a veggie chilli and salad. This was very tasty and an excellent portion size. The price of everything is fair given its location and lack of competition. Well done we all loved it. Dogs were welcome to.

Hey, I visited yesterday lunchtime with my family of four and I must say it was absolutely shocking I have come down all the way from Bristol for this. Utter disappointment. Also they missed out three things from our order and forgot the fact that my 4 year old son who is very allergic to dairy asked for a chocolate milk shake and has been extremely ill ever since. We also ordered a veggie breakfast for my wife and there was ginger hair on the side of the plate next to the beans which is not what I expect from what looked to be a lovely place to go on our holiday. My full English breakfast was ordered 40 minutes before it was finally put on the table and was practically cold. Overall I really do not recommend widemouth bay cafe and we certainly will never come again I asked to speak to the manager but she was not cooperative and did not want to speak to me, extremely rude and I am incredibly disappointed. I hope no one else has to go through this again.

I dashed into here to seek refuge from a storm. Although I was bedraggled & dripping wet I was welcomed like an old friend. Massive mug of tea & a fabulous Rocky Road set me right before heading out into the elements again.

Fantastic cafe - excelllent portions and reasonable prices considering its location. Child friendly with Highchairs and babyccino's available and kids options on the menu.

As expected the usual over inflated prices for a beachside cafe. Have to comment however on the staff. They were all SO miserable. A smile goes a long way and to not smile even once while greeting and serving customers perhaps a customer facing job isn’t for them.

Situated next to Widemouth Beach this friendly cafe serves great well cooked food. The staff are very courteous and maintain the tables to a very clean standard.

Really lovely service, thanks girls <3 gluten free and vegan options and great value for money, WiFi and even let me charge my phone a bit so I could pay for the bus home. We will be back x

We haven't been here in a while so thought we would give it a go. We both had fish, chips and coffee. Good quick service and great food with a sea view. I'm sure we will be back during the winter months.

Great little beach cafe with seating inside and out and plenty of paid parking on site. The staff are welcoming and fun, food quality high, (especially the Breakfast Stack), portion sizes generous and prices reasonable. Dog friendly too. Also runs a loyalty card for coffee which runs from one year to the next. Well worth a visit.

Visited for lunch while on holiday. Lovely views. But fish and chips were of poor quality. I was looking forward to having fish. But the batter was poor. Very disappointed.

Just the place for a hot cup of tea after being on the beach. We both eat here after surfing and the breakfast is huge and very tasty. It can get busy but there is a takeaway service if you want to eat in your car.

Incredible cafe with wonderful food and staff. Went on a busy day (lunchtime rush hour) and left satisfied more then ever! We had the sunset smoothie which was incredible, dirty fries which were delicious! a classic cornish pasty with this tomato relish which was lovely. the staff were very friendly and helpful! We will be visiting again, and we recommend this place to anyone!!!!

Awful service and incredibly rude manager! We ordered and waited at a table outside. We waited and waited. An hour later, they came to tell us they had run out of one of the food items as they had sold them all - we even witnessed others who came after us being given them and eating said item - despite the fact we’d ordered an hour before. We had to choose something else. At this point you would expect whilst we had clearly been forgotten and the cafe had made an error, they would have been apologetic and then prioritised us when others had all come and gone…. No. Another 15minutes and nothing. We put a complaint in to find out where our food was to be told lies… we ran out of that item ages ago (question: why did you sell it to us - answer - don’t know), we were suddenly told there had always been a long wait on food. Why were we not told at purchase and why had all the tables vacated after eating their food and we were still waiting. The employee then proceeded to tell us about our difficult choice of food… we had ordered a cheese sandwich, a pasty and chips… not exactly complicated. I asked to speak to the manager who made me wait further time and then refused to come and speak to me - I could see her in the kitchen and watched her raging - angry /moaning and shouting about us. Incredibly rude! If you as a business make an error, own your error, apologise and make up for it. Don’t get defensive/rude/shout and act cowardly. They refused any discount/refund. Eventually we got our lunch at 2:55pm - hardly lunch time anymore! We will never visit again and be sure to tell many people about this experience.

Great café right by the beach. Lovely food, service can be a little slow, but that is because they are busy because it's so popular. Food is hot and tasty, smoothies and milkshakes are really good. Lattes are pretty good too. Would recommend Widemouth bay café.

A good cafe located on a lovely beach. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Coffee was really good. Highly recommended.

Perfect - full breakfast and a breakfast stack. Reasonably priced. Cooked fresh when ordered. Dog friendly.

Called on 18/6/23 at 10-25. Hubby joined queue & was still in it at at 10-55 seems no system at till, serving customers inside & outside same till doesn't work. I watched tables been cleared but not one was cleaned down & some cutlery wasn't clean had to be choosy what you picked. Food was very nice once it arrived 2 breakfast stacks. Staff pleasant as rushed off there feet.

I love visiting Widemouth Bay, and the Cafe is always a firm favourite of mine. It is popular and rightly so. It serves a selection of both vegetarian and non vegetarian meals. Indoor and outdoor dining options, with WiFi an added bonus. The staff are friendly and attentive to guests, and I definitely recommend it.

Great cafe overlooking Widemouth Bay with great, friendly service and a brilliant array of tasty food - to feed hungry post surf lesson kids (& keep the waiting parents happy.) Great view, dog friendly - and super tasty. What more could you ask for?

Delicious food but way too expensive. We paid over £40 for one breakfast, one burger, 2 portions of chips and 3 drinks. Mad prices.

good choice on menu, food is brought to your table outside and you can sit and enjoy great food whilst overlooking the sea. Sadly gets overcrowded in tourist season and hard to get served at that time, but otherwise well worth the visit.

Braved the April sea for a swim at Widemouth Bay. Went for in for lunch, great space - clean bright with amazing views of the beach. Good range of menu options we had 4 burgers, fries, loaded fries, fish cakes and drinks. All food was...

We decided to have breakfast here as it is so close to the beach. We were a large group (9 adults 3 children and a baby) but found the cafe spacious and inviting. Most of us had the bigger breakfast and other had pancakes. Everything...

Stopped here for brunch, in a storm! Lovely cafe, fab cooked breakfast. The cafe is right by the beach so we were able to watch the crashing waves while we ate. Recommended.

Love this place, Great breakfast, good coffee but desperately short staffed atm. I worry how they are going to cope in the summer months. Hope it stays as good as it always has been

4 staff saw me waiting at window to be served. Very chatty with the lady infront of me who they knew. Ignored me. Served her one drink and was still waiting for the rest of her order. I waited a bit more, still ignored. One...

Lovely coffee with a great view of the sea. Couldn’t resist a veggie sausage bap for £4. My greyhound was happy to sit under the table and really enjoyed the peanut butter and bacon biscuits (not eaten in the cafe because she creates a lot...

went mid week,car park not busy,just mainly doggy people walking on beach so cafe not busy,no one sitting in just odd person wandering in for a hot drink,I ordered a sausage bap and slice of cake.It took 25 minutes for them to do the sausage...

Walked in to lots of dogs barking away very loudly and aggressively at one another. This cafe is really small and would benefit from a No Dogs Allowed policy. You don’t really expect noisy dogs yapping away for ages in a small eating establishment. My...

Lovely cafe situated in car park by Widemouth beach. The breakfast was top rate, especially the breakfast stack. So good we visited on 4 days of our 7 day trip. Staff were friendly and welcoming, food quality high, portion sizes generous and prices very reasonable...

Lovely place, gets very busy. Lovely friendly staff, cooked breakfast was well worth the visit piping hot and plenty of food.

Nice little cafe. Clean, tidy and friendly staff. Outdoor and indoor seating We had a fried breakfast here which was tasty and we tried hogs pudding for the first time! A reasonable selection on the menu. Good prices. Drinks a tad watery/average. We would go...

Best crab sandwich EVER! They obviously use the dark meat as well as the white from the crab, which makes all the difference. The bread is lovely & fresh, the accompanying chips are good too - just the right amount. Even the salad garnish was...

A well positioned café overlooking the bay. Very popular and busy at time of visit. Fantastic coffee made with freshly ground beans each cup! Nice treats, recommend the Carrot Cake & the Yoghurt topped flapjack. All reasonably priced. Sunsets here are apparently fantastic - not...

Visited with friends lovely coffee, lovely staff. Accommodated a member of the party with an allergy and sorted us out. Thanks Howard

Had a Big Breakfast, Stack , Hot Chocolate and other things. Food was phenomenal, especially the bacon..wow. !! Great value..

After a lovely beach walk we tried this after reading positive reviews & they were not wrong. Great food & smoothies, efficient staff and a location & view hard to beat. visited 2 days running and took a detour to make sure i did..

Brilliant breakfasts, great coffee, delicious ice creams....this is our go-to cafe after shopping in Bude;)

Reviews looked good but disappointing. Not enough staff. -we had all day breakfast but quality of food didnt hit the mark. 30p extra for alternative milk!!! 5/10 😏

Stopped here for a break whilst walking along the coastal path. We ordered sausage sandwiches and coffees. We decided to sit outside as it was lovely sunny warm day. Good views over the beach and sea. Relaxing location. We were given monitor which would go...

All good here with great food, great views, adjacent car parking, and friendly helpful staff! Ice creams also very nice.

Always pop in to this cafe for a superb breakfast which is always well presented, delicious as well as good value for money. Would highly recommend.

Good coffee, really dedicated staff. Thanks it's great to see a good team like that. Gets busy but there's a good reason for that.

Perfect location for a breakfast sandwich before or after a trip along the beach. Big car park and free toilets. Massive beach when the tides out and east access. Cafe dog friendly, not that big inside but plenty of seats outside. Good coffee and the...

We stopped here for coffee part way through a circular walk from Bude. The coffee is a bit on the weak side but that may be due to the large paper cups its served in.

Called in here for a birthday breakfast. Great breakfast and at a reasonable price too. My only criticism is that they only use smoked bacon which not everyone likes and they dont do mushrooms. As a bonus the hogs pudding was spot on.

We stopped here for a coffee whilst driving along the coastal roads. The coffee was really lovely and it was nice to sit down and watch the surfers doing their thing

I usually love this little cafe, however recent visit with family for lunch the experience was poor. The service from both the person taking the order and waitress delivering was surly. The food was basic (single chicken burger in a cheap bun). The high chair...

Ordered takeaway coffee which was very tasty, the coffee they use is illy. Staff were pleasant but, the service was on the slower side.

Did feel that a takeaway fish and chips should have a price point £1.50 to £2 below the cost of eating in. Of course you do not get have to pay for heating on a takeaway, individual condiments,washing up, table service, clearing and cleaning the...

Highly recommend Widemouth Bay Cafe for a delicious cooked breakfast and very good coffee. Wide menu with lots of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. Will definitely be back!

Went here today with my Mum and Dad. Great location overlooking the beach and great hot chocolate! Highly recommended for a hot drink!

We stumbled across this cafe. It's in an incredible spot looking out across widemouth bay and all the crashing waves and the surfers. Even better, the food is briliant. Amazing BIG breakie. Can't praise it enough.

We popped here for a quick refuel on our 16km walk around the local area of Bude Definitely worth a visit. Can recommend the loaded dirty fries and hot chocolates We were staying in Bude and would recommend a scenic coastal walk from Bude to...

We had a lovely carvery at widemouth Bay. Very attentive staff and wonderful views. Would definitely recommend

What can I say, but, Yum. We had breakfast here every day for a week and enjoyed them all. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the food quality high, especially the Breakfast Stack, and prices more than reasonable. Plenty of paid parking on site. Well...

We'd been using Widemouth Bay beach as our early morning dog walk destination all week during our trip to Cornwall as we were staying nearby. On our last morning before we set of on the long drive home we fuelled up with a cooked breakfast...

Visiting beach ⛱ and time to eat, food ordered and it arrived in a reasonable time. Food was well cooked and good value for the money. Would come back.

Great place to eat. The breakfast Stack is the king of breakfasts!! Friendly and efficient service but can get busy. Highly recommended.

Exemplary service- we arrived at the end of a hot busy Sunday at the end of long summer holiday. We had walked the coast path and we’re desperate for sustenance, we chose well. Widemouth was busy with people enjoying the last hot days of summer...

wnet there with my family on our Cornwall holiday and were not dissapointed. Surfing, swimming and fishing

I’ve been coming to this cafe for the last ten years with my children. Every year the service is excellent, staff friendly, food lovely and very good value and facilities great. You buy a beer a coffee, some cake or a light lunch. There’s a...

What a find ! We arrived at the beach for surfing with two hungry children and this place was jsut what we needed. We had to queue but that's because it is so popular. The staff are very efficient and helpful. The food arrived promptly...

Average quality food, pretty disappointed really considering the reviews and the prices charged. The puddings were food but the mains quite poor. Excellent service though.

Enjoyed the fish and chip takeaway from here on a very hot day in July. Very organised. Good value, tasty fish & chips.

We found this place on our first day on holiday, what a find. Great food, good ordering system and good service. Will definitely keep coming back.

During one week holiday visited three times. On one occasion we were warned that there was a wait - not an issue to us. On other occasions served quickly. Loved the smoothies, coffee and breakfast snack. Staff were friendly and efficient

Been loving my regular trips to the Widemouth Bay Cafe – Full 2* review at coeliacwellnes. com We’d love to have given them best of the rest status, but their menu refers to gluten free options when they can’t avoid crosscontamination.  So our coeliac team would...

had morning coffees and breakfast baps (one bacon, one veggie sausage), queue was a little slow till they opened the 2nd window but coffee was good and the food system with the buzzers worked well and we didn't wait too long for the food. Sat...

We’d had a lovely walk on the beach and had paddled our feet so we’re already for a late lunch. There was seating available outside (as well as inside) and did takeaway. We ordered and took a seat outside, where dogs were welcome, and enjoyed...

Really enjoyed this cafe just off the beach front, able to grab a table outside to enjoy the view. cooked breakfasts were lovely, smoothies and hot chocolate excellent, pasty was also very nice. Food was served very quickly as well.

Arrived in the morning for breakfast with family and was greeted on arrival by a pleasant young man, think his name was Josh. He allowed us to sit inside and our order was taken swiftly. The coffee was excellent and the food was great quality...

Beautiful location at beach BUT At least 8 cleared empty tables outside, had to wait to be seated, big queue but no staff seemed to be allocating people to tables, gave up and tried elsewhere - thats another story!

Stopped here firstly for some ice creams for the kids and a coffee. I was pleasantly surprised. 'kids' is normally code for tiny but they were plenty big enough and the ice cream was lovely. I wasn't expecting much for the coffee either but large,...

hi this cafe is always overloaded in the summer months so exect to queue. But this year a curry pasty has arrived. this is vegan but as a meat eater this is brilliant, the pastry isnt the usual type of vegan pastry so you dont...

I think I have reviewed this cafe before, but went the other day and it is still as good as ever. Good breakfast food, coffee, friendly staff, permits dogs, cool music, great sea views. We go whenever in Cornwall which is quite often as it's...

We love this place, it’s does the best breakfast treat, the “breakfast stack”, it’s yummy. Situated by the Widemouth Bay Beach car park, there is plenty of paid for parking. They have seating inside and out, staff are welcoming and friendly. Food quality is high...

My family and I had breakfast at widemouth cafe this morning. Wanted to end our holiday with a cooked breakfast. We had 3 Widdey breakfasts, a sausage bap and a veggie sausage bap. Everything was cooked lovely, was hot and tasty!! With 5 drinks it...

We had been looking forward our breakfast here for a few days and were not disappointed - wonderful full English breakfast that was hot and very filling. It is just a shame that it doesn't open until 10am so we had to wait before leaving...

Takeaway hot chocolate was to die for!! We just got a hot drink as the weather was poor and it was delicious. Definitely recommend!

We came here twice on our long weekend visit. The first time we had scampi and chips which was delicious. The second time we had drinks as it was almost closing time yet the staff were warm and welcoming. The view over the bay is...

We visited both Crooklet Beach cafe and Widemouth cafe. Decaf coffee is superb. The menu doesn’t offer a great deal if you’re looking for healthier options - but they do a smoothie that’s just fruit. The fruit scone was divine, vegan breakfast very good. The dogs loved their hot chips. Great that our 3 dogs were very welcome in both locations. Friendly helpful staff. We purchased a pack of their locally made shortbread - it’s the best EVER!!! Wished we bought more. The locally made Ginger Beer was delicious.

Came here out of the rain for 2 vegan breakfast options, great to see a fair amount of vegan choice. Must be lovely on a sunny day, and busy too.

Came here for breakfast. Got a table inside after a couple of minutes wait as not all tables can be used due to Covid. Veggie breakfast was excellent, good service and friendly staff.

First visit to the cafe inside since the summer when it was takeaway only. Lovely views of the sea, good cafe food with daily specials, coffee and traybakes. Friendly staff and good service. The cafe tables were at a good social distance and tables cleaned. The only downside was that the cleaner used is affecting the wood surface of tables making them very very sticky and unpleasant.

25 minutes to get 2 drinks - what a joke. When we arrived almost all the outside tables were full, but It took sooooo long to get served, they were almost all vacant. The hot chocolate was very nice. Just not worth the wait.

This is a nice, clean cafe with friendly staff and good service. It has the standard fare of burgers, fish and chips... much as you’d expect and not a lot in the way of salads. It’s all tasty and nicely presented. The kids’ options are really limited though- fish fingers/sausages/chicken nuggets + chips. That’s a bit disappointing and old-fashioned given that in 2020 some children are vegetarian or vegan and some even eat salad! Even McDo offers healthier options for their kids’ meals. I’m not suggesting these things should be removed from the menu- just that other choices might be added.

Brilliant breakfast, not cheap but worth every penny. Sat outside and had a great view. There was a bit of a queue given the current Covid situation but definitely worth it!

Only got a bottle of water from here but thought it would be cute to leave a review. Has nice window panes xx

Had to wait in the lunchtime line for 35 minutes; but in terms of the food and coffee it was worth it. The simple sandwiches were delicious and clearly fresh. Coffee was great. My only concern - and I had plenty of time to observe - was the volume of folk not wearing face masks when going inside to collect their orders. Clearly there are some great precautions being taken and that was evident; however the request to wear masks when ordering was very tentative. Needs to be firm and clear. Also the sign on the door is not very obvious when the door is open.

The BIG Widdy Breakfast is always fantastic, one of my favourite places to visit for an early morning treat! Great to be right beside the beach too, handy for post breakfast walk.

A great little place that serves (very profesionally, politely and in good time) all that you require of a beachside eatery. Staff were amazing and the selection of food and drink spot on. The only thing that was a little dissapointing was no alcohol outside of their boundary, so no alcohol to take away to the beach!.

We’ve been here a couple of times on our visit. Lovely hot drinks and home baked cakes and what makes it really special apart from the beautiful location is the staff. Customer service can be so hit and miss nowadays but the 2 young men who served me were so polite and friendly, good customer service like this goes a long way. Thankyou
