Lerryn River Stores in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Stopped in the stores for a flat white and brownie and both very nice. Very helpful server who also gave us directions to Tivoli Fountain and gardens. Beautiful, peaceful waterside village with picnic table and FREE parking. That's a first for Cornwall.

Considering this is the only shop in the village serving local residents and many visitors it is very poorly stocked. the very barest of essentials, some of which are out of date and very over priced. Such a shame when it could be a very busy and offer so much more.

This lovely little village shop is amazing. It’s the perfect place to sit and have lunch, they have indoor seating and outdoor table and chairs, or if you wanted to sit by the river they would bring your food and drinks down there. The staff are lovely they made me and my family feel very welcome, they were bubbly, happy and chatty genuine nice people. We had a lovely experience and we recommend visiting !😁

We had breakfast here yesterday 28th December, we have all been really ill with an awful stomach bug, the sausages tasted sour, when we complained we were told it’s the taste of the special spices, it turn out we now have a bad case of food poisoning. Please be warned this has ruined our time away and the new year family party. We have reported them to Cornwall council health dept.

Fascinating place, not a huge amount in the vicinity of the stones, but full of history with a bridge the goes back to Elizabethan times plus the stepping stones that allow the river to be crossed at low tide. Well worth a stop but be warned we cane via a VERY narrow lane - even by Cornwall standards, maybe 6 inches wider than our car. Some interesting facts I learned afterwards: The village was central to the silver industry in Cornwall They had their own version of the Tivoli Gardens (now defunct) The Wind in the Willows book is thought to be based on Lerryn Verdict - reccomended

Wonderful staff , delicious food , helpful service … beautiful location … very pleased we visited pasties were the best we have had

I was out with a motorbike group and stopped here to grab a bite for lunch , Although we were very muddy the lady welcomed us with a smile and described all on offer for lunch I went with a large pasty which was up there with the best and I know my Pasties :-), Followed by a really nice yogurt flapjack slice , Really is a cracking little shop run by a happy go lucky lady :-)

We parked in the car park and stopped at the shop for supplies before our walk to St Winnow. The Cornish Pastie was amazing. It was big, hot, full of veg and big chunks of beef and great value for money. We also got caramel shortbread, which I’ve had better. After our walk, we stopped for a toastie and a cream tea for two. The toastie was tasty but was expensive at £5.50 with no garnish or crisps. The cream tea was nice but the scones were over cooked and a bit dry. The fruit filled, yogurt topped and caramel topped flapjack were much better! The view made up for it but we’ll stick to the pastie next time.

Excessive pricing, extremely poor service/attitude. I suggest avoiding would be the best option. I suspect some local’s would find this little shop a convenience. I concur with many other reviews, I would use the term “convenience” in another sense.

Stopped at this nice looking little spot in lovely Lerryn late for some lunch. All they had was sandwiches. Fair enough..until we paid. £11 for two simple sandwiches, no garnish or anything special just two slices of white bread and one ham, one egg. I’ve paid less for full baguettes in expensive lunch breaks. Appalling rip off .

We had a great walk from Lerryn to St Winnow & back on a lovely day weather wise. Last day of our holiday we were really taken by a little snack bar in St Winnow , but it was too early for my lunch. I had seen the cafe in Lerryn & picnic benches on the Green & I saved myself for a sandwich there. What a shame I did. The order was one tuna sandwich , 2 sparkling waters. Cost £10 which struck me as overpriced but I was hungry! Then we waited & waited & I commented to my husband that it would need to be a good tuna sandwich given time taken . After about half an hour a lad came out with a toastie & one water. We sent him back for the other drink but I should really have asked what the order was at that stage. I had asked for a sandwich , no spread. It was hard too tell what the ingredient was deside mayo but I believe it was chicken . It was only eaten because it was now 6 hours since breakfast, oh & the water was barely chilled. We returned the plates & I told the woman how I had been given heavily disguised chicken not tuna. She apologised with her mouth but her face was saying something else. I actually couldn’t rule out that it had been done deliberately. Husband pointed out that maybe it was not so surprising that the shop was closing .

best pasties - seriously. The most wonderful selection of local foods, cheese, meat and dairy. They stock Cornish Gouda and Cornish Blue!!!!! if you like cheese you must try these. Love this shop. Staff very friendly and a real good egg of a place. Lucky locals.

my wife and i ordered tea and americano for drinks, we ordered two cheese@ham ploughmans lunches,sat outside it was a nice day, the lad came with our drinks my wife had to take her coffee back and get another she said it was totally tasteless, the lad bought out two meals to us had to tell him we didnt order what he bought out it was someone else,s meal,then he returned with just one meal,my wife had to go and find were her meal was, the girl had only put one order in, i had finished mine when the wifes meal came,the meals were a joke they consisted of a piece of bread 3 slivers of chedder 2 slivers of brie, teaspoon of chutneytea spoon of balsamic vinegar piece of ham, a little bit of mixed salad, if you put it all on a sandwich it wouidnt have been enough to fill it, oops forgot 3 pickled onions,

2 customers in the shop, and 3 staff, but still could not manage to serve more than 1 person at a time. Polite request for service met with outright refusal to help. Second attempt met with reluctant action accompanied by hostile argumentative BS excuses , which in the end were just that - excuses.

Lovely little shop with a small cafe attached. Nice selection of food which can be eaten in the cafe or out on the green overlooking the river. Friendly staff and they go out of their way to help.

We went to Lerryn to walk along the the river, and on the way back we stopped off at the village shop, not a great experience, we met a moody lady behind the counter with a smile turned upside down we wanted to post a card and order some food, very unhelpful and a bearded portly man who was just as moody sprawled all over the counter, we decided to eat at the ship inn next door, where we bumped in to the portly man again, the food at the ship Inn was average but a much better atmosphere than we received at the shop. Maybe caught them on an off day.

Lerryn is a beautiful place and what makes it even more special is this fabulous shop. You will get the best Cornish pastie and other delicious food. A lovely cafe and fab ice cream and all the daily essentials you need. Friendly staff, a treasure Lerryn folk are lucky to have

What a lovely shop/cafe in a pretty little village by the river. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and a lovely cup of tea after our walk was just the job. No phone signal but free wifi!!

Staying locally as we were you are pretty self sufficient between the Ship Inn & the Village Store. A lovely little shop run by Michelle & Nick although Nick spends most of his time between his farm & The Ship..lucky chap!Not being the most healthier of eaters my wife introduced me to the delights of the most amazing sour dough loaves bought at the shop..a real must if you are staying locally but best pre ordered as they do sell out quickly.

If you are planning to walk anywhere near to Lerryn you can be sure of the most delicious refreshments at Lerryn River Stores. You have a choice of sitting inside the café or out on the Green by the river.

A well stocked shop with lovely bread and fresh cheese scones some days. Lovely ice cream too. Sells most necessary food items and includes a Post Office counter too,

I have lived in the area for 30 odd years and incredibly have never visited Lerryn !We have been several times in the past few weeks making up for lost time. Lovely walks around the area ,a beautiful village and this lovely store / cafe .Lovely sandwiches ,coffee ,ice cream etc..A beautiful area with picnic tables overlooking the river.The shop sells a wide variety of quality goods including pasties ,homemade cakes artisan bread etc.Will visit again and again.

This shop and cafe (I didn't see any indoor seating, but lots outside by the river) is beautifully sited and well-stocked. It is also a post office. They serve barrista coffee (so it takes ages), cream teas and delicious ice cream. On a Sunday the car park was full and there was a lot of jostling for spaces, but the next day (a Monday) it was fine. There was a range of Cornish produce to buy for souvenirs.

Came here for a local walk in leryn, we all had ice cream which was lovely and it's a great place to get bit from the store.

We were walking in the ancient woodland and needed coffee and cake. Found this place and secured a great takeaway coffee and delicious ginger cake. Sat on the picnic tables outside and enjoyed. Also noticed that there were goods of all kinds, like a mini-mart, plus cards and small gifts. Perfect.

We've visited Lerryn a few times. A beautiful Cornish creek village, the best view is from the green outside Lerryn River Stores, having tea or coffee and a cake. Cheerful, friendly service and good prices.

This quaint village shop has so much to offer, well stocked and great for the locals it does takeaway ice cream and drinks. Lovely cream teas on the village green and the pasties are the best ever.
