Muddle and Press in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

This cafe is now called Cafeccino and I suspect run by different people . Before the menu had a good choice of dishes and excellent service . Today our experience was much worse ,we ordered a bacon sandwich and two coffees from the very limited menu and sat waiting at our table for 20 minutes and nothing arrived ( the cafe was not busy ) ,I got up and asked where our food and drinks were ,she had forgotten ,what did she think we were sitting at a table for ?I got a refund and was glad to leave because the woman behind the counter had been feeding a dog using her fingers and patting the animal down and not washing her hands ! Very unprofessional . My advice is to avoid this place .

When I'm in the area, I go out of my way to visit here. Great food and staff😊

Booked a table for 12 for an event. Asked the staff months in advance if they could put out some decorations I’d provide before our arrival and dropped them off on the day. Obviously got to our booking to find no sign of the decorations. Had to get them from where they’d been left and start putting them out myself. They’d been told specifically I was trying to make it special for my sister. No apology from the staff. Additionally: - at 5.30pm already both pies were unavailable, and there was only one portion left of one of the specials - apart from the sourdough which was nice, the ‘bread basket’ seemed like the cheapest supermarket baguette, burger buns etc. Not what you expect for £8 each.

WOW…a little gem. Best fritto misto and steak frittes in St.Ives. Cooked perfectly. Not to mention the amazing crab sandwiches loaded with crab (lots of white crab meat and not the horrible brown stuff). Warm, welcoming service. I’ll be back soon.

Beautiful pasties and sausage rolls 🙏🏻👍🏻😁
