Common Grounds Café in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Hidden at the back of a bin filled alley, this is a perfect spot to get some time back away from the bustle of the sea front. Super ale straight out the keg!

Such a shame closed to non residents for coffee or lunches

Wonderful fish and chips. Only realised why Nettles on the way home in the car. As well as a superb fish and chip shop it’s a dr who museum, great for the kids to visit and fun while waiting. We had the works last night and the food was superb. On the train back to london and telling all my friends about Cornwall fish and chips. Thanks Dr, beautiful food and chat. Great value too

Enjoyed homemade Mediterranean quiche and then afterwards we had cream tea with lattes. The hosts give top customer service. The dogs got given lots of dog biscuits shaped as bones so they were happy.
