This lovely little café is nestled in one of my favorite beaches in the world, and I had it recommended by a pair of trusted friends. Went for lunch today and it was unbelievably tasty, stunning food, and views. 10/10. Can't wait to return for one of their upcoming events.

I found Cove Cafe by accident on a costal walk, well what can I say! Stunning view for breakfast. Then to find out they do evening dinner on some days was amazing… the food was fantastic and staff were so kind and caring… 5* guys and Sharon you are a star and they are lucky to have to 💜

We love the Cove Cafe!! Staying in a chalet on Toms holiday we always visit. This year was just for drinks on a windy evening but the staff couldn’t do enough to accommodate us!! They moved comfy chairs to the window so we could sit and enjoy a bottle of wine whilst enjoying the sunset. The food board always looks enticing with fresh local produce and slightly different options to other establishments. The Cove Cafe always has a lovely, friendly feel about it and overlooks Hayle beach. If the weather is good it’s the best place ever to sit, relax and just watch the world go by, and perfect for enjoying the Cornish sunsets. Thanks again for making us feel welcome when we visited and special shout outs to the two lovely ladies that were working that evening who went above and beyond. A MUST VISIT.

Best cafe I have ever visited, there is nothing on the menu that will disappoint you, we came here two days in a row and if it wasn’t that we wanted to explore the area a little more would have returned again and again. The staff were so helpful, coffee was amazing, wine was exceptional and food…. I am still reliving it. Views are amazing of St Ives, if you visit you must come here, why can’t there be more places like this around.

This is a superb little Cafe sitting at the top of the cliff with glorious views across to the beaches, sea and St Ives beyond. Nice seating areas both inside and out, with mist seats having great views! Menu is nice, simple and I imagine caters for most tastes. Coffee is served well, Flatwhite good and strong. Staff friendly and efficient. Cafes like the ones dotted up this coast and in St Agnes are a real bonus and we must support them.

I visited 5 or 6 times during a week’s holiday nearby so this was my local cafe, it’s in a breathtaking location and has a fantastic outside deck area looking over the beach and across St Ives bay, and the inside is lovely too. I had the Bakewell tart and vanilla icecream which was out of this world with the most buttery melt in the mouth pastry I’ve ever tasted. Coffee is good, the breakfast baps are also excellent. I tried the fish soup with aioli and crouton for lunch one day and that was also divine. Service was excellent too.

I had heard that the food was great so wanted to give it a try. It’s a great venue for dog walkers as they are welcome, however when we were there,(sitting inside) there were three dogs who barked continuously as owners were feeding them from their plates. So it was very noisy. Personally I feel if dogs are badly behaved then owners could be asked to eat outside. Having said that the staff were friendly and the place had a nice vibe. My soup was delicious however it was served in an exceptionally small bowl and for £11 I left feeling hungry which was a shame.

We met friends here for dinner and an evening of live music (provided by the Wave Machine). We had the Mackerel pate to start, Harissa Hake with seasonal roast veg (cooked to perfection) for main course - followed by a dessert to die for - the Prune & Chocolate sticky pudding with brandy cream (OMG!!). This was consumed with local beer and some beautiful white wine. The Cove cafe is perfectly located above the Riviere Towans beach - it is a wonderfully cosy cafe with a great vibe, staff are incredibly friendly & helpful. Lilly the manager, Matt (one of the chefs) and the owner Rupert (who runs a cookery school) are very passionate about their food & service. We have had breakfast, lunch & now dinner here and we have never been disappointed - it really is a great spot to chill out, meet friends, and enjoy great food & drink. They also do coffee & cake if you are looking for a light bite. Highly recommend it to anyone! Ps Dog friendly too Indoor & Outdoor seating available depending on weather.

First time we have tried the Cove Cafe for lunch. We were meeting friends here. It was a really lovely lunch. We had the steak sandwich, cheesy fries, fish soup and veggie pastie, followed by carrot cake. The fish soup was not like any fish soup i had tried before but wow - it was really tasty - so full of flavour. My other friend had the steak sandwich which was really well presented, good quality steak and very tasty. We tried some of the local ales on tap which were nice. We really enjoyed our time here. There is indoor & outdoor seating (depending on the British weather) and its dog friendly too. They also do breakfast baps here and coffee, cake, croissant etc if you fancy a light bite or morning snack. It is located right on the edge of the beach and you sit overlooking the beach & St Ives. It is small & cosy and has a nice vibe. Look forward to trying more off the menu here. Just really hope they stay open during the winter months.

Views to die for! Sunny 🌞 Cornish mornings, sitting on the Cove deck and watching the minimal morning traffic of beach goers walking to find their ultimate uncrowded spot on these glorious 5 miles of golden sands. The cove has amazing friendly staff with that laid back Cornish demeanour. Looking at the food being served around us plates are attractive and inviting. We sat and enjoyed fresh ground coffee ☕️ and prosecco orange juice while soaking up the morning rays and contemplating the better part of life. I would highly recommend this cafe and if you take the beach walk with the experience it will be one of the most memorable moments of any Cornish holiday.

We visited the cafe/restaurant during our stay between 14/8 and 21/8. The cafe is in the most beautiful idyllic setting, sitting just above the rock pools overlooking st ives Bay. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and the environment had a very personal touch. The very best hot chocolate with all the trimmings was enjoyed on the beach after a cold dip in the sea and the odd ice cream was consumed. We visited on the last day of our holiday after being rudely turned away from a larger neighbouring venue in the area. The owner of the Cove cafe, in contrast, could not have been more friendly or accommodating. He squeezed us in on the outside terrace, which was perfect, overlooking the sea as the evening drew in. However, the weather wasn't completely on our side and the rain started to fall, so despite being fully booked a space was found for us inside to shield us from the downpour. The food was delightful, unique and very tasty made with fresh ingredients. We enjoyed 3 different pizzas followed by 2 very yummy desserts. The bill was very reasonable. Our visit to this restaurant was a perfect end to our holiday and highly recommended to incorporate into any visit to Hayle/ Riviera Towans beach.

We were really looking forward to visiting the Cove Cafe and it definitely did not disappoint. The location of this little treasure is sat in a prime location overlooking St Ives Bay. The Cove is decorated simply and tastefully, perfect for the back drop of the bay in front of it.The menu is simple, offering a range of pizzas and Mediterranean style starters and sides.The pizza was the best I have ever had (don’t tell my husband, he makes good pizzas too!). Again the drinks list is simple, offering the best gin Cornwall has to offer along with various wines. One suggestion though…maybe offer a Cornish wine like Camelford, this would make it all complete.The staff were attentive, friendly and helpful.We would definitely visit this little gem again.

A couple of years ago we stayed in Hayle and finding this cafe was one of the highlights of our trip. We loved the reasonably priced deli style food with amazing luxurious salads and sitting out on the grass verge and watching the sea. We decided to return to Hayle this year and our family joked that we were really coming back just to visit the Cove Cafe.However when we got there we were gutted to find it completely changed. First of all the menu had been redesigned to maximise profit and limit taste (think less deli, more sausage roll) and is significantly more expensive. We only wanted a light lunch but literally couldn’t justify paying so much for your basic seaside junk food. Instead we came back another day for an ice cream which was delicious but, again, overpriced. We also had to queue for a long time to be served.But perhaps the most devastating thing of all was the outside area. What had once been a peaceful grass verge overlooking the sea was now filled with decking, surrounded by glass walls and claustrophobically crammed tight with picnic tables. It’s no longer a beauty spot but now essentially a pig pen.It was heaving with people so obviously the redesign is working for the owners but it has categorically lost it’s heart and soul and that’s a real shame.

Fell upon this beach cafe as we explored the SW Coastal Path. It sits on an elevated position so you benefit from seeing the whole of the St Ives peninsula. It has a lovely outside decking area that you can't eat out on. The food is yummy and easy to eat. Nice panninis and ciabbatas, fish and chicken goujons. My kids tried the wonderful smoothies which went down a treat. The food is a little bit pricey however this is easily offset by the affordable parking rates if you are spending the day at the beach. £2 for 4 hours! And the view.

Plenty of indoor seating and loved the decor and the prints on the wall. The outside was such a sun trap I fear we would have burnt to a crisp. The staff were really friendly. We had pineapple and mango smoothies for £3.50 each. Ice cold which was perfect for such a hot day. The views are stunning. Can't wait to return.

What a brilliant place. OK so the sun was shining and the sea was the most amazing blue, not a cloud in the sky so how could it be a bad experience. But the owner and staff at the Cove Café couldn't have been more helpful or delightful. We were two vegetarians and one vegan and they managed to cope with us with a smile and some great food and drink. Iced water from the tap with out so much as a raised eye brow (other places take note). Pancakes, with fresh fruit and syrup freshly made, gorgeous coffee and a view that was just stunning.

Staff are rude and make you feel like your order is an inconvenience to do, never have food ready, over long waiting times. Not experienced in the industry at all. Extremely over priced for a beach cafe. They quickly run out of stock and opening times are awful. Although it is a lovely location and building, hence why we have been coming for so many years, but they have taken the personal, friendly meaning away. People want a cheap, quick snack (throughout the day) to sit on the beach. Will not be returning again. Such a shame and a waste. If you want an expensive, restaurant meal you would go to a restaurant. This is neither a beach cafe or restaurant. They need to re think their customers.

This place is even better than last year with the outside decking overlooking the stunning beach food is consistently good, with a varied selection of drinks I intended taking a picture but when it arrived we dived in so can’t show you anything more than empty plates !! So decide to upload a picture of the view. Good coffee and then followed by some delicious ice creams perfect in every way will be back next Saturday

This place has been recently refurbished and looks brand new. A lovely seating area has been created outside and inside they now have a whopping selection of ice-cream! We had coffee, cake and ice-cream and all was perfect. The staff were very friendly and happy too. This cafe is a short walk along the beach from Riviera Sands Caravan Park. It's on the Towans.

We had a lovely lunch here ! Fish finger sarnie and feta &veg; baguette. The food was freshly prepared with good fresh ingredients. Prices are very reasonable. Excellent service from very friendly staff. The cafe is hidden away in the cove and has fantastic views - you need to follow the directions given on the website, but it is easy to find. Well worth a visit.

We have often walked down the road from Haven site down to the Bluff Inn, but as it was our last day of the holiday, we walked along the coast path towards the Bluff, when we spotted this little hidden cafe. We popped in and had a lovely cream tea, whilst my son had a double scoop of ice cream, lovely views from the cafe and toilets just up the hill. Will def pop in again next year of open

My daughter and I walked along the beach to this lovely cafe from Sandy Acres Campsite about 45 mins away. We sat outside admiring the gorgeous sea views and I enjoyed one of the smoothest lattes I have ever had followed by a delicious burger that tasted of top quality meat with crisp crunchy fresh lettuce served in a brioche bun. This place is clearly run by people who care about the highest standards of taste and flavours and must be making a big effort to source the best ingredients they can. This is reflected in the sort of prices I would expect to pay for this kind of food - this is not McDonalds!

Visited the Cove Cafe in August this year with my husband and it was fantastic ..... can not fault it! The prices were very reasonable and the food was lovely. Actually met the owners who were really helpful in catering for our needs. I have particular food requirements at the moment and they went out of their way to produce a meal that met my needs and was delicious! Loved sitting by the window and looking out over the beach. I would recommend this lovely and friendly cafe to anyone who is visiting the Hayle area!

Looks right over the estuary with a couple of picnic benches outside, a good number of tables inside, very clean and tidy. The owner was very friendly as were the staff. Fantastic big selection of ice creams and lovely food what we had.

We were racing the rain off the beach, ran into this cafe just as it started to rain! Had a lovely hot chocolate to warm up and a lovely chat with the owner (we presume) we spent a good hour in here although we were drinking tea the whole time there were people in there sheltering which wasn't a problem, no rush to move on as soon as finished.

A hidden gem tucked away out of sight on Hayle beach. Enjoyed the coffee so much and the lunch menu looked so good that we stayed on for something to eat. The baguettes are so nice!

Spending the day on the beach can mean wanting ice creams or more drinks. Cove Cafe does this and more. Every beach needs a cafe similar to this one.

Gran ambiente, justo al lado del camino costero con Sw con vistas fabulosas de la calle Ives Bay. Un camino empinado al café, pero hay una barandilla.

No sé lo que le pasó a la cala. La comida solía ser muy agradable, pero era horrible este año y no ofrecen una buena relación calidad-precio. £6 por un bocadillo de palitos de pescado con pan duro y seco. Y es una cafetería en la playa necesita para satisfacer la gente en la playa. Está tratando de ser demasiado de categoría para qué y dónde es

Mi marido, mi hija y yo visitamos este café por casualidad, como se estaba cerrando. El dueño era muy simpático y amable y para que pudiéramos tener algunas bebidas y comida (que eran ricos). El café está situado en un tramo de playa con impresionantes vistas fantásticas y poco hay varias piscinas. Bien merece una visita.

Aparecimos para comer un bocado y una bebida caliente. El chocolate caliente era la mejor, servido en una taza preciosa y acompañada por un pequeño recipiente de smarties! Presentación 10 / 10. En un rollo de masa de tocino amarga también era delicioso. Encantadores dueños amables y perros bienvenido, ¿qué más puedes pedir

Dropped in for lunch on a Saturday, what a fantastic find!! Funky and quirky vegan cafe. Loved the layout and decor. Best chai latte ever. Absolutely gorgeous tofu tacos, and the squash salad was sooo tasty. It’s dog friendly too!! Young lady was on her own front of house, and the cafe was full, she was run off her feet, but she was brilliant - well done!! Now top of our list for lunching in Mousehole!

I have been here four times now, its become a thing whenever we come to Newquay, tattoo before I go home. The staff are incredibly friendly and always chatting away when you're there. They make you feel like part of the family. It's clean, tidy, always smells so good woth the cakes and coffee, I always feel like I'm home when I go in.

Very good B&B in a very central location. But it is very expensive so 'value for money' comes into question. Very good cooked breakfast served in the mornings but for the money it should provide freshly squeezed orange juice.

We found our way to Freathy Farmhouse Cafe by following a sign from Whitsand Bay. What a lovely find! Very rustic and charming cafe. We sat outside in the sun and enjoyed very generous sandwiches served with delicious salad. Some of us even managed cake! We will definitely return although I understand it is best to check opening times. Ps Loved the decor in the loo!
