Lovely. Except it seems you now don’t warm up bacon and cheese croissants. For what reason?. They aren’t good cold.

Absolutely awful. Been here twice now and safe to say I won't ever be going back. Trying to serve too many people, so just takes ages for just a coffee. Completely dirty, and serving food on trays that aren't even clean. I was give a dirty tray, cutlery and even the jug was flithy How this place doesn't have a 1 star for food hygiene is unbelievable. I would definitely avoid at all costs

We happened upon this lovely coffee shop and bakery during a recent visit to Plymouth. It was busy when we arrived and struggled for a table but this isn't a bad thing. The coffee (flat white & latte) was spot on and the food was also really good and artisan quality. This place was a really good find and I'd definitely be back if we ever visit Plymouth again.

Lovely good and staff were friendly and polite. Had a lovely hot chocolate and Cornish pudding which were delicious. Also purchased take out pasty and cheese straws which were delicious. Will definitely be visiting the cafe again and have already checked out the website to order items for home delivery. Delicious and reasonably priced.

We visited this amazing place while on a family holiday recently and we were delighted with our experience. We have a four legged family member and they welcome them in which was super convenient as its very hard to find a place like this that also allows dogs. The atmosphere was lovely and vibrant, the staff were attentive and friendly, the food was delicious (this was our first authentic taste of a cornish pasty) pasty - chefs kiss! The coffee was also delicious. The pricing was reasonable considering how great the food was which is also a bonus. All round this place was amazing and we highly recommend it. P.s for any pastry lovers, I recommend the pistachio croissant!

We’ve eaten at a Cornish Bakery before at a different location and had their Cornish pudding, it’s to die for, apparently it is made up of all the pastries at the end of the day. We had it warmed with cream, you couldn’t eat it every day but we did today. Drinks were good too, my daughter’s chai was a work of art. We also brought home a traditional and cheese and onion pasty, they were equally good.

Delicious pasties and sweet pastries. In Plymouth for the weekend to visit family and came for lunch on Sat. Came back on Sunday to take away some pasties for long train journey. Wanted to try the well recommended apple and rhubarb sweet pasty but were sold out so will have to try next time in Plymouth! Sampled 4 different savoury ones and all were excellent with nice tender meat in traditional one.

Yes. A definite recommendation. It missed 5 stars by a hair. I decided to drop a star because the tables don’t get cleared. I cleared my own table and since there was no where to put the dishes I put them on another table was not cleared. I often like to add photos of nice places but I am not because people will see unclean and uncleared tables in the foreground.

An absolute delight!! A complete hidden gem. I had a lovely scone with cream and jam and a raspberry lemonade. Staff were ever so friendly. The only downside was that I was charged for a strawberry milkshake instead of lemonade so I did pay too much.

They took a while to get the hint that I didn't want to share my lunch with them It's in a wonderful position, has beautiful views, comfortable seats with extra cushions if needed. The staff couldn't be more helpful The only toilet I could see was accessible, unlike some other good eateries nearby where the facilities are upstairs, so well done Cornish Bakery This was my second visit, and it probably won't be long before I'm back

After a short stroll from the city centre we arrived at The Barbican and decided to stop here for a break. I had a Mocha and Julie had a Decaf Tea. We both had a plain scone each and I opted for clotted cream (yes, jam first then cream). The coffee was just right and was hot. Julie’s tea was right - ensuring she took out the tea bag as not to have it too stewed. The scones were fresh and were not dry, indicating freshly baked or at least they tasted fresh… crumbling and melting in your mouth with just the right consistency. The place was about a third full and although there were only two staff on (as far as we could see) they tried to keep the tables clear as best they could. Very friendly staff too. I put all our finished things on the tray and took over to the counter to help them out. Lovely view across the marina and harbour.

This place has the magical power to set your day just right and mark it as a happy day. I mean have you tried their mouth watering bakeries and coffee? They’re out of this World! The textures and richness of their cakes are just amazing 😋 Last time we got the lemon cake which is very different with the subtle hint of earl grey added and the beautiful mini edible flower petals decorating it. We also got the coffee cake which was so light and had a very airy dreamy icing that’ll make you forget about the best tiramisu or any coffee-based dessert really you’ve ever had 🥹 Not to mention the picturesque view of the Barbican of course 🚤

Lovely coffee and pastries served on good quality pottery . The location is perfect with delightful views of the harbour. We were served quickly , maybe a tad to quick as myself in particular would like to have browsed at the menu boards . Inside the cafe it was cool ( it was a particularly hot morning) and clean. Unfortunately there was a couple with a dog and they were letting the dog drink out of a glass 😖. Yes i do love animals but not the owners who seem to think it’s ok to let them drink from glasses. Note to staff maybe a sign to ‘ pets drinking bowls outside’ Would I go again ? Yes

The Chancel has been one of our favourite places to eat in Plymouth for many years. During Covid and a bit longer they’ve been delivering or preparing for collection. Without much thought or any foreknowledge we walked down this evening hoping it might up and running for their traditional bistro food and good wines. Very disappointed therefore to find it dark, empty and will a To Let sign. No hint that there might still be an online service. Pity and we’re sad. Many dozens of happy memories.
