Olivers Cafe in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Amazing , me and my partner stayed in st just and traveled all around Cornwall for the week and my partner was determined to find the best cream tea going. Everywhere we went seemed to be a little shop with no seating or a take away cream tea but my partner really wanted to find a little sit in restaurant/cafe and have the best cream tea. She was so happy with the cream tea from here and the staff are lovely and welcoming. 5 star experience happy wife happy life.

Below average for the area. Staff not particularly attentive or happy. Would keep walking on to the next one next time.

We sat indoors, which is quite small but cosy, for cream teas one afternoon. The scones were very good, served with a good quantity of both cream and jam, The servers were polite and welcoming, the manager was lovely and stood and chatted with us for some time.

This small cafe with both indoor and outdoor seating offers a really good selection of food, all at reasonable rates. The staff are very helpful, work very hard and are enthusiastic about their menu. The attention to the small detail was particularly impressive , not just talking us through the various ( just baked) sausage roll flavours but checking whether I wanted the salad dressed. Service is fast , but professional and the food is really very good. I chose the herb flavoured giant sausage roll with crisp salad — it was excellent . Just as the chef had described it would be. Jan took the soup which was exceptionally tasty. We saw another table take the door step sandwiches and they looked impressive too. It gets incredibly busy.

We had another enjoyable cream tea at Oliver’s Café in St. Ives. Their freshly-baked scones are served warm with generous portions of jam and clotted cream and are absolutely delicious. To accompany the scones, we had a pot of tea served by a lovely lady who was very friendly and attentive - nothing was too much trouble. We’ll be back for another cream tea the next time we are on holiday in Cornwall.

Wet and rainy outside, Inside welcoming and cosy with great cakes. Cream Tea with large scones and Earl grey tea highly recommended

If your in St Ives, Olivers Cafe is well worth a visit. The staff are very welcoming and the cakes are lovely.

I had lunch here while on a visit to St Ives. Lovely fresh homemade food. Apparently the Cornish Cream Tea is to die for.

My favourite cafe in St. Ives where they serve generous portions of preservative free cake. They're also a popular destinations for cream tea lovers as the scones are asked fresh every morning. They offer an evening menu on Wednesdays, Thursday and Fridays too. Fantastic service.

My daughter had a cream tea scone and i had a smoked salmon open sandwich which were both very nice. Nice staff and pleasant atmosphere in shop. Only negative is that my daughter scone was five pounds fifty and in every other cafe in st.ives you get two scones for the same price which are equally as nice. It wouldn't put me off going back though !

This is a lovely little café just off the main street in St Ives and when we popped in for a cuppa and a cake, we were quickly and efficiently served by a very pleasant lady. There is seating outside as well but we preferred to sit inside to avoid the seagulls! Definitely worth a visit!

Always used to go here, but last visit a few weeks ago was not good at all. The cream teas used to be to die for but alas no more! The scones are now half the size and not as tasty. The menus on the table were sticky and unclean, simple job to just wipe them each day.

We went today for a cream tea it was lovely the coffee is lovely my husband had a sponge cake with Apple inside he said it was lovely and fresh will be going back again soon

Great home made food, superb cakes and a caring staff,this is situated just off the harbour and well worth a visit. It has inside and outside seating and is in a little sun trap.

We ate lunch here and then went back for tea and cakes later. A peaceful spot away from all the crowds and hustle. Great food, and amazing cakes!
