Med Terrace cafe in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Best pizza I’ve had in a long while. Staff were very friendly. Based in an amazing setting - in the Mediterranean biome. Good selection of lunch options. Calmer than the larger main restaurant.

Went here for lunch as a family of four based on eating here some years ago, and we were sadly disappointed with what we got. They initially squeezed the four of us around a tiny table barely fit for two people, and only moved us to a larger table when we asked. Staff levels were too low for the number of customers. Worst, the paella was a sad example of 'skimpflation'. The menu claims it comes "with Cornish seafood" but this amounted to a single shrivelled mussel on top. On top of this, the rice was overcooked into porridge, making it so bad that three out of the four of us couldn't finish it. This is not what you want for £15 a plate! Overall, we would not waste our money there again.

We ordered the paella which claimed to come with seafood and chorizo. The seafood seemed to consist of just one teeny tiny mussel and one small langoustine and the chorizo was just half a small slice. The consistency of the paella was like porridge so goodness knows how long it had been cooking. It was pretty inedible. Total waste of money.

Chaotic queues! We were happy with the gluten free choices, better than a lot of places! Didn't see the sandwiches as the queue was so long. Opted for a gluten free pizza and wedges, both quite acceptable. Nice coffee but a tad expensive for the size of the cup.

Very poor experience, service chaotic and slow and the food was desperately underwhelming. I understand it is a small tapas style restaurant but the bread portion sizes were absurd, 4 micro pieces of bread to go with a vat of olive oil - absolute waste of oil. The gluten free bread size was even worse and appeared to be a single slice of bread cut into 4. Meatballs were the best of the dishes but the service was so slow and inefficient, appeared to have insufficient servers running out the food - really can’t understand why such a simple menu can be delivered and organised in such a poor way. Wanted to love the place and was keen to try it, but unfortunately would recommend avoiding it!

no main meals were available, just nibbles and small plates. It was described to us as "like tapas" but it wasn't tapas at all, a bowl of humus with 4 tiny slices of bread, meatballs in a huge serving bowl and a single slice of toast with mushrooms. Just dreadful.

Great to find this inside the Eden project. Fits in well in the Mediterranean biome. Good friendly service, and very tasty food, mostly vegetarian

On visiting the Eden Project we decided to eat here. We had to queue 10 minutes, which was fine as they were busy. We were shown to a table by the waitress which was dirty and still had glasses on. The waitress took the glasses, and said she would come back and clean the table - she didn't! We asked again after about 10 minutes, again, they didnt return. After about 20 mins or so, someone came to take our order which we gave them, and again mentioned the dirty table, they said they would clean it, but didnt return. The drinks arrived after another 10 minutes, and again (forth time) we asked for the table to be cleaned. The waitress said she would fetch a cloth, and did return and gave it a wipe, begrudgidley! The food came an was ok, but the whole experience was lost due to the long wait and the dirty table issue.

Considering it’s a tourist attraction and this is a café/restaurant on site I didn’t expect much other than to be ‘ripped off’. But I was wrong. Decent food at not overly costly prices. We ordered a variety of starter type dishes, a pint of Thatchers, a couple of Elderflower drinks = £50 for the 4 of us. Good service too. No, I shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.

The portion sizes are small and whilst the food is tasty it is overpriced. Unenthusiastic staff that didn’t give the most welcoming service. All in all fairly average, I wouldn’t be in a hurry to eat here again.

Delicious food, lovely staff, efficient service and amazing place to sit and enjoy medditeranian biome at Eden project. Seems they had resident sparrows for each table :)

Very nice menu with a truly Mediterranean feel. Everything came in good time and the drinks were cold and refreshing. Staff all happy and helpful. The setting is really nice just inside the Dome, set out like a taverna style restaurant. The food coming out was excellent looking.

We ate here on a Monday for lunch, waited 20 minutes for any service after being shown to our table which wasn't too bad but would have like a drink first. The service was very friendly just there was a lot of staff not seeming to be doing much. Food was very good and relatively prompt, so all in all a good experience.

Glad we waited to eat here during our trip, as it was worth it. Cue was significant and if you want to eat here, you must get there promptly and prepared for a wait - but the food is lovely and fresh and the atmosphere is relaxing. Charming little birds fly around you - curious and protected from the outside world inside their own little “Eden”. Closest I’ve ever been to a Robin until now - they sit happily watching you eat curiously, hoping for a scrap! I had the Gnocci today, and really enjoyed the meal.

If you are hungry, do not eat at this restaurant. Myself and 3 of my friends went today and ordered the Chefs Pasta Special which cost £14.50 each, a total of £58. When the food arrived it hardly covered the bottom of the bowl, I would say no more than 4 dessert spoonfuls of pasta. We could not believe our eyes. The pasta was very thin with thin courgettes, it supposedly had garlic but we could not taste it, the meagre amount of food we had was tasteless. We were hungry on finishing it. I spoke to the chef and the waitress to say how disappointed we were and was “thanked for my feedback”. I strongly suggest that if you do eat here make sure you see what the portions are like before you order. My friends and I dont mind paying for food but come on, this is taking us for fools. It actually spoilt our day to some extent as we were really looking forward to a nice lunch. BE WARNED. DONT BE RIPPED OFF LIKE WE HAVE BEEN.

Definitely no pizzas now! It's just a bar serving drinks only. Such as shame they don't serve food any more as it would have been lovely place for lunch. Still it was nice to sit and relax with a drink inside the Mediterranean Biome. It really did have the feeling of being in the Med...but just inside in a dome...in Cornwall!

My wife and i , visited this after she walked across a high rope bridge, nice drinks was had , my wife said the Gin was superb

We had walked a long way around the two main biomes and we were thirsty and hungry. We chose the mid terrace restaurant as we had seen the pizza production from above. You place your order and once your alarm disc flashes you collect your food.

Unable to find a table elsewhere, and really wanting something to drink and snack, we were delighted to spot empty tables here. Service was prompt and very friendly. Could only get crisps to eat, but were grateful for that and a beer / soft drink. Genuinely felt mediterranean. A haven!

Nice surprise during our eden visit. Relaxing place to sit down part way through the visit for a refreshment.

There are two sides to this café. Not sure what the other side did as I hadn't realised it was there until too late as the place was vey busy, especially with social distancing and trying to find a free table. Had a really nice Pizza. but this side only served fizzy drinks. Didn't want to wait in a long queue again but would have preferred tea or coffee.

Excellent facility, but quite packed when we went. Outside is better. Good food and spectacular non-dairy ice cream.

Nice enough space where you can grab a variety of foods and drinks. Unfortunately the area was a huge attraction for wasps which the Eden project will love of course but are a problem for the average person.

Really nice lunch and all the food was really nice. Good food and at a price that is affordable to any pocket .I recommended it

Needed a rest and a sit down. But not recommended. Out of stock of many drinks and a tad pricey and not a jolly vibe.

Of course any restaurant in the centre of the Eden project is going to be great for location, but perhaps a little steeper on value. However, the local ingredients turned what could be mediocre into quite delicious - the addition of Cornish cheese to the pizzas was a knockout and stole the show. Also very sensitive to dietary requirements, such as vegetarians and gluten issues. Perhaps not the most expansive of menus, but could definitely find something for most people. The main thing that let it down was its aloof staff and slow service. Most of the staff seemed like teenagers with weekend jobs who had better places to be, but were friendly enough when needed. It did take a little while for our orders to be taken when they didn’t seem rushed off their feet. On the whole, a decent experience with some real highlights.

The restaurant has long tables and benched seating, very reminiscent of school dinners. But don't be put off by this. The food reflects the mediterranean theme of the biome at Eden Project. It was really nice food. Lots to choose from the menu and affordable (unless you have a family and then it might be cheaper to bring your own food so everyone in your group can eat what they want). The long tables and benched seating is available for everyone, whether your buy food in the restaurant, or you bring your own. My only tip is that if you're not fond of noise children whilst you're eating, you may want to choose to sit away from such groups.

Really great service, staff all young and friendly. Food well cooked and different, not your boring old regular pizzas! Enjoyed it.

It's well worth going to the after hours dinner, the peace and tranquillity inside the domes when most people have left is great. The Mediterranean food is delicious, and the service is good.

We had a quick pitstop for refreshments and decided to have a pizza too. Great service, great food, good value, lovely setting. Would recommend eating here.

What a wonderful experience.polite staff and well run activities. It was also a wonderful learning experience which helps one to understand what goes on in the world. This highlights the importance of looking after our forests.

Arrived at 1230 for lunch and was told that food waiting time was 30 mins. Accepted this and sat down. Ordered at 1245. Food finally arrived at 1400. We received no apology and no compensation. The food was pleasant enough, although the portions were small. Sadly the wait for food ruined our entire day at Eden.

We stopped for lunch during our visit, and were completely underwhelmed by the lack of service. Our sharing platters, all cold dishes, took over 45 minutes to arrive, after we had already waited over 20 minutes before ordering. We did receive an apology, accompanied by the statement that our order "had been lost" The food, when it did arrive, was acceptable and tasty according to all of my dining companions. However, I felt that the whole endeavour was understaffed, and morale appeared to be at rock bottom. Would I eat there again? Probably, but they need some decent management input to enthuse the staff.

We ate at the Med Terrace having spent an hour or so inside the Mediterranean Biome at Eden. It was definitely worth it, with brilliant service and a good atmosphere. You're dining surrounded by fantastic fauna and it's a brilliant environment to enjoy a healthy lunch, with a fantastic selection of everything from pasta and seafood to salads.

Best gluten free pizza I have had anywhere. Other food was also lovely. Had a real mediterranean vibe, Wiltshire song accompaniment

Such a brilliant idea being able to eat within the Mediterranean biome. So much birdsong & relatively tranquil enviroment ( screaming children’s aside). The way staff are uniformly attentive & nothing is too much trouble (not that we asked for anything but could frequently hear “sure, not a problem, will do”). We just had the paella (certainly packed with flavour but not even a hint of crust), a Margherita pizza & a bottle of wine. We note other reviews saying meals were well priced : we thought they were a tad pricey for the serving size but the enviroment compensated for cost. Well worth a visit.

Loved it, Had bread/olives and pizza. Flavours all perfect. Excellent idea and great value for money.

Very calm, relaxed spaces - both indoors and outdoors. Excellent coffees and a wide variety of tea. Interesting wraps. Very helpful staff.

Located in the Mediterranean Biome, this a popular place for lunch. Nice range of good well cooked food but be prepared to wait during busy times.

please go there something for all ages it does take time to go round but you can stop for coffee and food plenty of toilets every where

The atmosphere here is always bustling and there seems to be excellent food served. Lovely ice cream.

I was really looking forward to having lunch at the Med Terrace at the Eden Project however i was very underwhelmed with the service and the food. Our sharing starter of deli meat antipasti didn't have much on it and i wasn't overly impressed with the paella main. It wasn't a bad experience but I'm not fussed about going again, especially for the price.

We arrived at the restaurant, which was very busy. The staff told us it was about a 30 minute wait for food, which was okay as we weren't in a rush. We ordered drinks and a sharing plate of bread, meat olives etc to keep us going whilst we waited. Our main courses arrived within the time stated, all beautifully presented, hot and tasty.

So glad we came upon this restaurant whilst touring the Eden Project. We reserved a table for the evening and went off to do the Eden Project. The staff were very polite and helpful. The food was amazing. The atmosphere lively. It was a lovely experience. A really great service they offer is the free minibus that takes you directly to your car in the car park if you're still dining after 6.30pm. Thank you!

Visited this well organised and operated lunch venue. Set up for mass catering which it does reasonably well apart from needing two tills open not one.

We didn't leave a tip today, but I will leave a few tips here.

the Eden project restaurants were too expensive for me. different and good quality, nice emphasis on environmentally sound choices but much better to have a picnic and enjoy the outside gardens

Nice sit down full service eating place at Eden. Good choice of med style dishes all at around £10 for mains. Starters and deserts were about £5. Lovely setting and not so busy as others.

We had lunch at this cafe while visiting the Eden Project for a day out and it was great, really tasty and fresh. The Med Terrace is in a very nice location inside the Med dome - the decor and menu are in the Med style to compliment the surroundings and there's a beautiful tree right in the centre of the restaurant. The Eden Project was quite busy when we visited (I doubt it's ever quiet) and the main restaurants between the two domes were quite crowded so we went in search of this one inside the Med dome and were pleasantly surprised at how calm it was! We thought we might have had to reserve when we saw how much nicer and more relaxed it was but we were seated straight away by friendly staff. We both had pizza because we saw someone else's pizza and it looked great, with nice thin stone-baked bases. It was really tasty and fresh - I think I read a sign saying they use some of the ingredients grown at the Project. If we visit the Eden Project again I'd definitely eat here, it was great.

I enjoyed a leisurely lunch here with a four year old. The menu was very good and they were happy to adapt what was on offer to suit a little persons tastes.

Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere at this cafe. Lots of comfortable seating. Friendly helpful staff. Reasonable prices.

Excellent good food, we were very pleased to eat in this Beautiful setting with very good service. Friendly prices. Make a visit.

Service quick and friendly. Food was delicious. Pasta dish was very spicy. Crab risotto was really good.

Had to ask where our food was after watching every one who sat down after us get theres. Off spring said childrens pasta in tomato sauce worst she had ever tasted.

quick service, plenty of choice, well cooked and sensibly priced. Food can be eaten inside or in the courtyard

Enjoyed two pizzas with salad in this lovely setting. Staff very helpful and friendly. Very enjoyable experience.

It was lovely sitting in this restaurant in the Mediterranean Biome.....such a pleasant atmosphere, with birds flying around, you can almost imagine yourself abroad! We had nice friendly service and were able to have a relaxing lunch of pizzas, garlic bread and salads. The pizzas are around £10 each for a 10” and the garlic bread just under £5 for a good helping of about 5/6 pieces of ciabatta bread.

Not as interesting as one is led to believe, it was clean the staff were friendly but I’m not convinced the entrance fee is worth the experience

Modestly priced ,wide ,wholesome menu ,lovely attentive staff...the ancient olive trees will amaze you .

It's a shame that this restaurant is only accessible when visiting the Eden Project as it would be nice to go there on a different occasion. The ambience was great - it felt just like sitting outdoors at a restaurant in the Meditteranean - although it was actually insise the Meditteranean biome. I had the Cornish Crab Risotto and it was delicious - the crab and cheese miniature beignets were a fantastic addition.

De plek is bijzonder, het eten was min of meer standaard. Maar waar kun je op zo'n plek even rustig genieten van een korte lunch of snack?

Untrained staff who appear leaderless - clearly a management issue which needs attention sooner rather than later

Stopped off at the Med Terrace while visiting the Mediterranean biome. We arrived around 12noon and the restaurant was about half-full in terms of tables taken. It's got a great aesthetic and atmosphere but our experience was not great. Out antipasti sharing starter arrived quickly and was average in offering, but certainly fresh in terms of ingredients. Two choices of cured meat, one cheese, olives, and tomatoes, all doused in way to much oil. The menu seems fairly limited but we both found something we'd like for our main course. After this we waited, and waited, and waited some more, for our main course to arrive. After 45 minutes, our server said it was 'just coming over now'. Shame it never arrived. After waiting for an hour we gave up, beckoned our server and asked for the bill. The service is terribly slow and inefficient - apparently a new system is to blame. An eye-roll from another member of the waiting staff as we explained our frustration was enough to confirm to me that we weren't really that welcome anyway. From our perspective, we had not spent £50 to enter the Eden Project, and travelled nearly two hours to sit in a restaurant all day, we had better things to do. We paid for our starter and drinks and left. It's fair to say we were not the only disappointed table, as during this particular service several tables were left waiting and wondering, but it seemed as though we were the only ones who left.

Waited 40 minutes for undercooked, inedible food. Not sure how a kitchen can be running so far behind time just 15 minutes after opening so expect a wait. They need to review how it's run - if this is the scenario in Feb half term then I'd hate to see what it's like in the summer.

This is a lovely little spot to stop, especially if you are visiting during the colder months as inside the temperature is lovely.

Much nicer place to eat than the crowded, noisy cafes in the link. Service was friendly and reasonably quick considering how busy they were. The food was all freshly prepared in the open plan kitchen. The pizza was pretty good, we also had pasta, lamb tagine and all were tasty, there were vegan options on the menu.

Possibly the best I have eaten!

Excellent value and really good freshly cooked food. Well presented and the staff are excellent! Can get busy but worth it.

Called in here for coffee and scone before going around the

What a lovely restaurant in a lovely location. I would highly recommend a visit to the restaurant even for only a cuppa tea.

We had packed a lunch but the aroma from the Med Terrace Restaurant was too delightful to ignore so we decided to have lunch. We ordered the Spanish paella and a child’s pizza to share. It was a sunny day so the restaurant was warm and we had a pleasant experience. The food was delivered promptly and was full of flavour and filled a gap! No complaints on price or quality.

Four of us ate there tonight. We had a 730pm sitting and stayed until late, when it’s a really magical place. Unfortunately it was unexpectedly cold and we should have brought warm clothing. Maybe Eden could provide blankets? We have booked for October too, but will come better prepared!

The whole place is awesome and time in the biomes is well spent and a way of spending more time in the Mediterranean biome is having your lunch there. The menu is a variety of dishes you would find in Spain, Italy or Greece, so the restaurant is named correctly. It’s good food, if the place isn’t crowded the service is fast enough – and as I said, it’s a good place to be.

Siamo entrati in questo bar ristorante solo per un veloce drink e una bottiglia d'acqua. Coreografia del locale simpatica.

We visited the Eden Project in May on a drizzly overcast day, so decided to eat The Med Terrace, we were pleasantly surprised. We had the Crab risotto and a pasta dish with garlic bread with mozzarella - a really good portion size, hot and tasty.

The Eden Project is wonderful.The Med Cafe is not so wonderful.We were hungry.The Med Cafe was right in front of us ,so we visited it.The menu looked quite interesting,and the setting amongst the plants very nice.We opted for Paella a huge favourite of ours.When it came,to be perfectly honest,most of the plate was taken up with two large bruchetta.There was very little seafood,mostly sausage,and no chicken,at least my plate had none.The plates were cold,so that the food became cold very quickly.Someone on another table had the tagine which looked like a better bet.At £9.50 each this was an expensive much ado about nothing.

Luogo all'interno della biosfera molto scenografico e particolare.

We booked in here for 7pm, looked a little quiet and it was dead silent, which made us feel like whispering for first 20min. After that we noticed gentle music in the background which really did make it feel like we were on holiday.

Booked for evening meal to end our enjoyable day out at Eden Project, we arrived a little early just before 5.30 to an empty restaurant and shown to a table at the entrance next to a still busy main path through the dome, there were tables unreserved so we asked could we move further into the restaurant, but told no we had to take our allocated table. As the next customers arrived we noted they were offered a choice of table and even moved from their initial seating selection without issue. Not a consistent level of customer attention.

It is a wonderful setting and especially good on a wet summer day when you can eat "outside" in another country! The food is cooked and presented well. It does get cool though - cooler than I remember the Med being - so take an extra layer. Meat and fish eaters are well catered for. My only moan is that the vegetarian options are a little bland and often just the meat dishes with the meat left out. But all of our meals were delicious.

Etant logé à l'YHA Eden Project, nous avons diné au Med Terrace Restaurant la veille de notre visite. Le reste du parc étant fermé, il y a beaucoup moins de monde, rendant l'ambiance bien plus intime qu'en journée.

Esperaba una mejor experiencia de este restaurante en el Eden Project. El plato mixto, supuestamente un tamaño principal campo, era bastante pequeño. Las pizzas margherita eran las pizzas margherita más curiosos que me he encontrado. Fue como si alguien hubiera quebrado algunos tomates enlatados al otro lado de la base, añadido 2 rodajas de tomate y para un efecto real y espolvoreado unos, y digo pocos, llenaron el queso en la parte de arriba. Mi entendimiento es que este tipo de pizza debe tener un gran % de queso, éste tenía alrededor de 5% de queso! Sentimos como comer tomates triturado de lata sobre una base crocante. Incluso mi 10 años comentó cómo extraño que era. Completamente aburrida y frustrante experiencia. Esperaba mucho mejor, pero la izquierda completamente decepcionado!

Comenzaré con las cosas que me decepcionó - la mesa y cubiertos no estaba muy limpio - pegajoso y manchado y un poco desagradable. El servicio era muy inconsistente y dolorosamente lento. Nos alegramos de que habíamos reservado, mientras que la terraza como era completo y parecía que había un montón de personal, gente estaban esperando mucho tiempo antes de que estaban sentados. Su frustración era visible.

Almorzamos en la terraza mediterránea. Tuvimos un delicioso plato muy bien presentada y con paella entrantes y platos principales cordero. Comida realmente deliciosa, servicio amable, y nos quedamos sorprendidos de que no cobran más dar la ubicación (aunque estaban contentos no ya tienes que pagar bastante para llegar al proyecto en primer lugar). Sin duda lo recomiendo.

Mi novia y yo reservamos para una cena. Primero, las cosas buenas - el entorno es impresionante. Es una auténtica novedad, siendo casi fuera, rodeado por la hermosas plantas. El insulso mirlos y robins eran interesantes también podría poner a la gente cuando vienen y...

We decided to book the Med Terrace Restaurant at the Eden Project for dinner on the day that we were going there. The plan was to spend the day and then go straight for dinner, but it didn't pan out that way.As we arrived quite early in the day we were rather tired and had done most of the Eden Project by 15:00. So we went back to our cottage before coming back later on in the evening for dinner. Unfortunately my Grandmother (in her 80s and quite fit and active) was very tired and struggled with the long walk from the car park to the biome, I think it took us about 20 to 25 minutes from the Banana car park (the closest one). Thankfully her tiredness didn't ruin what was a unique experience.Being towards the beginning of May the Sun was already lowering and casting a rather beautiful, soft light in the biome which was truly wonderful. The temperature was warm and because the Eden Project was no longer open it was very quiet and peaceful, apart from the numerous birds that have colonised the biome. These birds are incredibly cheeky and very used to being around people. We had a robin sit on one of the chairs at our table when our food arrived hoping to get some crumbs. The temperature inside the biome quickly dropped as the Sun got lower, and "sunset" in the biome is quite a bit earlier than normal due to it being in the old clay pit. This resulted in my Grandmother wearing a few extras layers and a fine scarf where she got cold. In fact all of us ended up with a cardigan/top on. It wasn't uncomfortably cold at all but is something that you should take into consideration when booking and what you wear.The food was lovely, with a range of Mediterranean dishes from tagines to pizza. I had the Picante pizza and it was rather spicy which I loved. The soft drinks available are not your typical ones, there is no big brand, industry standard drinks, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and the lemonade is wonderfully traditional with a bit of a sharp bite to it. Dessert was also enjoyable and nicely rounded off the evening.Thankfully, for all of us were rather tired and leg weary, they provide transport from just outside the biome back to your vehicle in the car parks, just make sure to remember which car park you parked in! Exiting was then interesting as the main entrances were both closed so we had to follow the out of hours/service road to a security exit which had a barrier but this opened as we approached.Overall I think this is certainly an interesting and unique experience, especially pretty in the soft light of the lowering sun, but if I came back I would do it on a day that wasn't so tiring due to the walk down to the biome and I would make sure that I had a suitable top to wear once the temperature starts to drop.

Beautiful setting & I love the Eden Project, but I was hugely disappointed to spend such a large part of my most recent visit in this restaurant, mostly waiting for our food.It took 40 mins for our pizza to arrive. They didn't even bring any napkins, but we were so hungry, we ate quickly & picked up napkins on the way out!It was particularly irritating to have what looked & sounded like the Eden senior team and a visitor who were seated next to us towards the end of our meal receive their food within a few minutes, as it felt like the restaurant weren't prioritising the customers.There are decent cafes at the Eden Project, so avoid this pretty location unless you'd like to spend hours being ignored for very average pizza!

Had an amazing time with the family visiting Father Christmas and then ice skatingDecided to eat at the med terrace before the light showWe were not advised that there was a 30 minute wait Once we had ordered we waited 20 minutes to be served our bread and olives and a further 40 minutes before we were served our main course. This was after we had asked what had happened as other tables that had ordered and sat down long after is were being served We were told that they were waiting for our children's pizzas to cook. Even though others who say later had had theirs served firstI was unable to have my first choice of paella and when I chose their new special was then told they had no sauce left so I had a platter which was tiny and not what I really wanted. Once the children's pizzas arrived they were completely burnt and they didn't touch themAlthough the staff were friendly and apologised and explained that the chef had walked out, I feel that the lack of attention to the customer and the food had left a bitter taste with meOur meal was discounted but I will not return again

A good lunch experience. I had tagine of lamb which was both very filling and very rich. The starter we chose was a variety of olives with bread and olive oil to dip... Because it is in the temperate dome there was a fair breeze from the ventilation so it meant keeping coats on.... rather more like eating outside especially as there were small birds hopping around .... and a garden growing around us. I would go again.... probably have a pizza next time. :)

Lovely setting with all the robins singing. Fruit and veg growing all around. Although they messed up the order I have to say the quality of the pizza base was outstanding and the topping was very good. Both my wife and I can't remember eating a better one. £10 per pizza is well worth it.

We stumbled upon the restaurant not knowing it was there, so having eaten earlier we thought we would stop for a small snack. When we first walked onto the floor there was no direction, there was no waitress greeting us at the front desk, they were standing by the cooking area talking until we walked up to the bar and she addressed us! She continued to do this to everyone that walked in wanting to eat. I ordered a small 5" prosciutto pizza only for it to come as a margarita. I then said I ordered the prosciutto so the waiter took it back and the chef simply reheated the margarita with some added ham and cheese slapped on top quite literally! So the pizza came back burnt and pretty inedible! Staff looked uninterested, inattentive and quite careless about any kind of customer experience. For somewhere that looked so promising in terms of food and service it was really dreadful. Would not go back here to eat again, put simply it appeared to be an amateur attempt at Italian cuisine!

We booked for a 6pm dinner, but as we were hungry arrived at 5.30 as soon as the kitchen was open. Having seen the menu I was really looking forward to eating here, however when my Paella arrived, the portion size was more like a starter. Now I have a small appetite but this would in no way fill a grown man. My partners adult pizza would have adequately fed a 10yr old but again not a grown man. The food was lovely but just not enough of it. A downside of eating here at the end of the day is that the gift shop at the exit is closed. So as I had decided to leave my purchases till we left I was disappointed that I was not able to do this. A nice touch however, was the little minibus back to the carpark to save us the walk.

We had no idea this even existed until we got into the biome. What a great surprise! Luckily we had got into Eden early so we were ready for lunch when the Med Terrace opened at 12. They have a good selection at the bar, including local ales _ even some "Eden" ales (bottled). The menu is simple but excellent. We had 2 pizzas - all stonebaked, absolutely delicious, and a sensible portion of the huge paella which can be seen at the open kitchen. The food is great, but the surroundings really make this a fantastic experience - especially when you hear other visitors walking around the paths, "there's a restaurant! Oh I wish we'd gone there!". All in all, if we go back to Eden we will definitely make a bee line for this place!

The location of the Med Terrace restaurant is amazing, inside one of the Eden project the biomes. However, the service was slow and one of the waitresses actually walked into my seat whilst I was dining.The starters were great, but the main tasted like it was mass produced for a canteen rather than cooked to order.It was an experience, but, do not feel this was an exceptional one. The setting is lovely, but, the customer service and food needs improving!

Had a delicious meal here last week - all 3 courses were excellent. The pizza had a generous amount of toppings with a nice crispy base and the salted caramel tart with clotted cream was AMAZING! The only thing that stopped this from being a 5* review was the less than attentive service. We had to call waiters over to take our orders on two occasions and the poor girl at the front (who was not a waitress I don't think) ended up coming to take our dessert order. Like other customers have said, we went up to the bar to pay rather than wait. The atmosphere is really lovely - nice music and warm climate (but not overly warm) so you really do feel like you're in another country!

What a delightful place for an evening meal. Good food served at a reasonable price, by friendly staff in an unbeatable setting. My wife's Gluten-free diet was absolutely no problem. Will definitely be back soon.

This could have been a really good experience. It was lovely to be in the Mediterranean biome for dinner. However, the service was terrible! Once we had sat down we had a real struggle to attract the attention of the waiting staff for everything. After finally ordering the drinks they took a long time to come. We then struggled to attract attention to order food, more drinks and dessert. The food was quite good and reasonably priced. The lamb tagine was particularly delicious and the paella was quite good too. The service was so bad that we were quite fed up by the end and did not even try to attract attention to pay for the bill and went up to the bar to pay. Even the chefs seemed to have to ask waiting staff several times to take food.

We were visiting Eden Project and booked an evening meal here. The menu is not too extensive (a good thing I think). My daughter really enjoyed her pizza and I had ling with new potatoes and veg. I'd not had that type of fish before but it was delicious as were the accompaniments. The only slight downside was the portion was quite small - it was so good I would've liked more! The surroundings are fabulous - you could almost be in the Med!

Visited here for our second time and its still as great. Lovely light options or main meals if needed. We opted for the carbonara which really was beautiful! Unfortunately our experience was ruined by a woman who decided to breast feed straight infront of us and the other diners. Really not on in such a public place when large family bathrooms are available so close by. Will be visiting again if we return to the eden project.

We ate here last Wednesday and it was great! Our son has a number of food allergies so we'd been in correspondence with customer services beforehand and agreed we would eat here. Upon arrival, the head chef was well informed and was able to provide a safe meal for our son. We all had a delicious lunch in a lovely environment (even our one year old was relaxed!). A big thank you to Brenda Brett & the head chef for helping make it a wonderful family day out.
