Minions Shop & Tearoom in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Excellent food, friendly staff, ideal for your time spent visiting Minions and The Hurlers, the Cheesewring, Stowe’s Pound and the other local sights. We ate the mackerel pate on sourdough toast, came with salads and pickles.

Accepting that this is the highest tea room in Cornwall and that we visited on the last Sunday of the year just before closing (at least they were open) - the milk jug accompanying the tea should not have been crunchy, and few indistinguishable black marks on the inside. Would recommend for the location and service, just beware of the crockery.

After a walk up at Minions i enjoyed coffee and a yummy slice of cake at the wonderful tearooms . Sitting outside in the winter sunshine was a bonus .

Friendly service and atmosphere. Excellent food. Nice to come in from a hike or walk around minions. Selection of cakes etc plus baps and breakfast

We've recently moved to the area and visited Minions Tea Room 4 times now. We've had lunch here and also coffee and cakes and we have to say that it has been delicious! The brownies are an excellent choice if you're looking for that chocolate hit! Just down the road is off-road parking allowing you to go and explore the wilderness which I would highly recommend. The staff in the tea room are lovely and the food is good too. We will definitely be back and are glad to have such a cosy, delicious tea room so close to home.

A pleasant refuge from the wet Cornish August weather with very good coffee and excellent homemade cakes, brownies and shortbread among other treats. Dog friendly too.

Heavenly carrot cake and latte! Good range of food. Very friendly and great service. Dogs very welcome. Seating inside and out.

I love this place. I go here for great coffee, fantastic cakes, amazing cream teas, but above all it’s wonderfully friendly and the setting on the moors is gorgeous. My therapy escape from the treadmill of life. Jx

This is a hidden gem on the edge of Bodmin moor. Perfect for walkers, families, couples or anyone really. Limited menu but everything is fresh and superb. I had the best ham and chutney sandwich I’ve ever had. Cake selection was all homemade and outstanding. Inside and outside seating. Only small, but worth a visit

The best lemon cake l’ve ever had. Very friendly staff and a great selection room of locally baked cakes for tea. A true hidden gem. You must go!

Have been twice since on holiday, both times food excellent, i was late once, but they went the extra mile and supplied food as requested anyway. That's good service. Highly recommended.

Fabulous tea room, we visited as a family of 4 for lunch. Great selection for all, we went with toasties for the kids & huntsman's ploughman's for the husband & I. What a great choice we made. Generous portions, food beautifully fresh & delicious. We were stuffed! Bought cakes to bring home with us as they too looked amazing! Staff were lovely & friendly. Super clean & tidy. A real gem & will be sure to visit again when were back in Cornwall. Loved it 😊

This is such a find, good food - friendly service, great food (homemade soup/ freshly made sandwiches/baguettes etc all reasonably priced and with the added bonus of sheep out of the window! We had lunch but spotted the amazing array of cakes on offer - we will be back to try them soon!

I’ve recently moved to Liskeard and this lovely tearoom has become a firm favourite of mine . I visited today with my friend and we enjoyed a cream tea sitting outside in the winter sunshine . We were treated to the local cattle parading past! Fantastic choice of food , served by friendly staff. Thank you .

Came across this little gem of a cafe whilst visiting in the area on a holiday. It is claimed to be the highest tea rooms in Cornwall and is certainly worth the visit to find it. Quaint with some lovely local produce a must if you want a light lunch or a snack?

Gluten free toasted sandwich with crisps and homemade pickles, with an oat latte. One of the best free from meals out I’ve had I. A very long time. Who cares about the rain with views, service and food like this. Thank you

Went for some lunch,really lovely fresh,good quality food.Great sandwich,ploughman’s and cream tea,all well priced served by a nice young lad,would highly recommend and will definitely be back again.

Spotted this lovely little cafe whilst driving past, and so happy I stopped. Delicious coffee and cake, and friendly service. The place was spotlessly clean, and the outside tables are right on the edge of the moor. Fantastic overall and I will definitely be heading back for another visit.

Wonderful tea room, I always try and come here when I come down to Cornwall. Dog friendly too. Lots of choice to eat or you can have just a cup of tea. Lovely happy smiling staff even when they are rushed off their feet!

Had a lovely walk around the Cheesewring and Hurler stones, then stopped off at minions for a scrumptious cream tea and cakes

Bliss! Lovely place to stop after a trek over the Moor. Lovely staff. Clean loo. Food delish! Can fully recommend.

I contacted the tea room the previous day as there was going to be 11 of us (8 adults and 3 children) for Saturday lunch. They very kindly accommodated us all. There is a great range of food on offer, with a specials board. The food was delicious and portions sizes were generous, so no one went hungry. They couldn’t have been kinder or more helpful to us. I highly recommend the tea room and shop. Will definitely be be going back.

Stopped for a family lunch 29th the staff were very busy but managed to provide an amazing lunch with great coffee we waited only 20 minutes for our mea which was freshly cooked. Well done.

We stopped at the tea rooms after a walk on the moors and around the Hurlers Stone Circles. There is a free car park by the circles and the tea rooms is just a short walk along the road. The fruit scones were fresh out of the oven and absolutely delicious. Lovely views over the moors. A must visit if you’re in the area.

Fresh scones, Great Cream Tea.. Saw someone else's sandwiches, some of the best I have seen. Service was great, will certainly go back..

Cosy and friendly tea room in beautiful surroundings. Cream tea was great but they have much more on offer. Well worth a visit.

We stopped for afternoon refreshments after a long walk, the place was busy with cyclists and walkers. The food looked lovely, scones and cakes and pots of tea, huge toasties… unfortunately, it’s let down by the utterly imcompetent staff who take 20 minutes just to take your order at the till and then bring out random foods wandering aimlessly around trying to find who’d ordered it in the first place. We couldn’t see any allergen marking on the cakes so I dared not order anything but coffee.

We have eaten on a few occasions and the tea room, food and service has always been consistently excellent, staff are friendly and helpful. We will be going back again and again

Really great tearoom. We wanted to go and picnic on the moor, so everything was made fresh and packed into a sturdy cardboard box for us. Superb sandwiches, a roll and pasty with beautiful cakes and drinks. Very helpful with my dairy free requirements and...

Lovely food, home made cakes. Lady apologised that there would be a wait for our food (it ended up taking 20 minutes which I think was very reasonable). Had halloumi sandwiches with tiger baps which ended up looking like big burgers with crisps, coleslaw and...

Its great food & drink reasonably priced. Very friendly staff, I recommend a visit, loads of tables outside to enjoy the view , great for dog walkers to stop for refreshments.

Lovely place, in a lovely setting, with a very warm welcome and friendly staff. Probably the best Cornish pasty I have ever had.

Lovely little tea rooms and village shop, very welcoming with friendly staff, wide selection of food and drink at good value prices, well worth a stop after a walk on the Moore or if passing through. Highly recommend
