Piglet Cafe in South Hams

Great food, great coffee, great staff, great find.

Super friendly and helpful staff, excellent coffee, ice cream and cakes, and a great atmosphere. I had accidentally left my purse there and it was handed in by a kind customer. Together with the staff they made quite an effort to find me. I'm so grateful. I really recommend this place!

Nice little cafe in the village we had the ham salad baguette good service

Lovely staff. Very attentive despite being busy still took time to share some camping recommendations. Great flat white and tasty hot pasty and sausage roll. Good selection of food will definitely return and recommend. Thank you

Excellent hospitality. Extremely good espresso coffee. Lovely pizza and food too. Polite and helpful staff. In an idyllic position. Really enjoyed it, definitely highly recommend.. thank you.

We enjoyed a really lovely light lunch eating outside on the village green. The menu is simple, but all feels freshly prepared - the pizza with crab, prawn and a lemon dressing was especially tasty. They have a wide selection of drinks, including a full range from Heron Valley and Salcombe Brewery Co. We had ice creams to finish off! The staff are super friendly which made the experience all the more enjoyable. We have been visiting East Prawle for many years, always visiting Piglet Cafe and it’s really pleasing to see the new(ish) Owners have updated the interiors making it feel like a special place to be come rain or shine. Thank you Piglet Cafe and see you again soon!

Small cafe but helpfull staff. Limited but good menu offering and drinks

This little cafe has become our favourite breakfast spot on a sunny day before a good circular walk along the coast path. Friendly service, good coffee and delicious breakfast options. Would highly recommend it

A hidden gem and much appreciated after a long walk! Jacket potatoes very nice and the scones (cream before jam!) were out of this world. Thank you!

Lovely lemon polenta cake with pistachios on top. A berry smoothie and local brownies too. Outside seating in the sun with a smart shade overlooking the green.

Fantastic, friendly and ( for us) in the middle of now where but great food ( I had the ploughman’s), my wife quiche and salad.) All seemed very fresh and good coffee - what’s not to like

Tasty selection of cakes and ice creams. Hard to choose but the coffee was lovely and so were the cakes. The owner was very friendly and the place just appealed to me. We did a circular walk along the coast at Prawle point which I would also do again.

Fantastic lunches and breakfasts, with lovely service and local beers and ice creams. Thoroughly recommend.

This establishment is a store and a cafe and it's great! Loads of choice, great location and friendly. It's not cheap but it's fair - you're in the middle of nowhere! They sell toys, post cards, fresh veg, souvenirs, nic-naks, tons of food, wine, beer, cider, spirits and ice cream... It's like an Aladdin's cave and I've not even mentioned the excellent cafe... This is well worth visiting if you're anywhere near by ... just check the seasonal opening times before you visit!

Tasty moist breakfast burrito and coffee after morning stroll .

Had the best ever lemon polenta cake, choco walnut flapjack and rooiboos tea. Very friendly staff and nice seating area. Have a huge selection of hot food and cold drinks too. Perfect end to a day at the beach.

Enjoyed an excellent crab baguette. Very friendly staff. We will return.

Delicious fresh cakes and baguettes. Excellent service.

Super cafe, fabulous food and very friendly staff

Just lovely people and lovely service. The food and drink was exceptional everytime (we were there daily) and i can't recommend this cafe enough!

I used to be a frequent vistor to this wonderful village, but sadly life stuff pulled us away. Now back in the area, we drove out today on a beautiful summers day to drink it all in again. I recall this cafe being something of a stuffy and dowdy establishment that was a bit hit and miss. Having taken it on 3 years ago, the new owners have worked wonders. Seating is primarily outside, the inside now a treasure trove of cakes, pastries and all manner of lovely things to eat and drink. We had the chilli beef nachos which were absolutely amazing. Lots! All made with fresh ingredients and tasty as you like. Service was quick and friendly, the propritress taking time out to chat and make us feel welcome. This place is a real find!

What an amazing find for lunch. The chilli con carne with added meat was literally the best we have ever had. Was very reasonably priced. Loved sitting outside and watching the world go by on a beautiful summers day. We will definitely be back!

Despite being busy the service was good, food quality excellent and, although we had a few minor issues (largely due to the cafe being understaffed due to staff illness), these were resolved immediately and with apology. A lovely, family friendly cafe and great to see it so busy!

Friendly and accommodating of all dietary requirements. Fantastic cake selection

Excellent vegetarian burrito. They also offer a veggie sausage butty. Oat milk and a delicious vegan cake available. Lovely spot, especially when sunny. Definitely recommended for breakfast.

Ordered crab sandwich, prawn sandwich, 2 bags crisps slice of cake, coffee and a bottle of beer. Sandwiches small and very disappointing. Charged nearly £30. Total ripoff.

While walking on Prawle Point we stumbled across Piglet Cafe, what a little gem. The lady owner could not have been more helpful in assisting with our dietary requests adapting her offerings to deliver us a first class lunch experience. This definitely somewhere we will return to in the near future. Hugh & Kate Myott

After a long walk had a good chat with the owner over a delicious ice cream. They sell local Prawle Point gin.....cannot wait to try it.

We were walking a stretch of the coast path in the hope that the website was up-to-date and when we saw the door open, the family were very pleased. We'd checked the website and were looking forward but have been disappointed a couple of times this holiday by businesses not bothering to update their webpages. This time and place, the website was true. The Piglet's team were welcoming, friendly and flexible and produced some great food and drinks. The definition of 12-ish was stretched to allow several of us to order from the tempting breakfast menu and babycinos appeared quickly for the youngest member of the family. Nothing was too much trouble, the food was great and just what we needed. I think that we should give praise where praise is due, so well done and thanks to the Piglet.

Just a lovely place. Nice cup of tea to go with cream tea.

Great spot for a beer. Extensive menu for both food and drinks. Crab and preserved lemon pizza was tasty and unique, though the pizza base could be much better.

Just enjoyed a cream tea here. The scone was delicious, but sadly the use of so much packaging spoilt it for us. What happened to crockery and cutlery that you wash up and can be reused. Nenvironmethsusussustainable

A pleasant surprise to find a good cafe in such a small place. Friendly staff, good choice of comfortable seats, nice food options rather ordinary coffee.

Lovely breakfast and coffee, a little pricey hence 4 stars

Well stocked Shop and friendly service. Good food in the Cafe, very obliging and helpful. Good choice of menu.

Great coffee and excellent service

It was really wet and miserable misty on the day of our visit so we were looking forward to a refreshing stop for lunch. I had read the reviews on Tripadvisor so had decided it was worth the trek across South Devon. Unfortunately on the day of our visit expectations did not live up to the reviews. The crab sandwiches were somewhat overpriced and our lattes tasted as if they had been made with scolded milk. Maybe our experience would have been better if the sun had been shining

Cream teas were yummy served in a takeaway box. The cheesy nachos were also enjoyed.

If you are travelling in this area make time to stop - the food is amazing, so fresh and great portions. The menu is fantastic. The staff were all so lovely. Cannot recommend this small gem enough!!

Visited this wonderful cafe at the weekend and I was so impressed with the tasty, brilliant quality food and drinks. I highly recommend visiting this Cafe. Can't wait to go back again. Nachos, Ice Cream and a Gin and Tonic. Happy Days!

Lovely staff who could not be kinder and helpful. Delicious baguettes, scrumpy cakes and delicious ice creams . Excellent drinks menus. Could not recommend more . We all loved it .

We stopped here for afternoon tea which was very reasonably priced. The staff were super friendly and we're definitely planning on going back as the baguettes looked amazing. There was plenty of seating on the village green with picnic tables set out for use during the current no indoor dining regulations. Public convenience and parking also available although we had walked up and inland from the coastal path - highly recommended.

Great place for a stop off cream tea was delicious. Julie and her staff were very friendly , helpful and professional....well done! A must have visit :-)

Beautiful place! The staff were lovely- especially a girl named Kerensa. She was so helpful when we needed directions and recommendations for the nearby beaches. 10/10 recommend.

Cream tea and flat white after a big beach walk. Perfectb

Fab, perfect stop Midway on a circular walk from prawle point. Absolutely delicious stem finger cake, really good coffee. Lots of outside benches to sit on as inside closed (COVID) cafe felt very Covid aware. Coffee was really nice.

This review relates to the shop. I can’t speak to the food from cafe. We stopped off mid cycle today for a brief respite and grabbed two Calippo lollies from the shop. I was charged £5 for two lollies which I later spotted in our local supermarket for £1 each (I appreciate a smaller shop is always likely to cost more - but not that much!) I don’t know if there’s a price for locals and one for tourists but I certainly won’t be going back again. Just check before you buy. I know we can choose whether we buy or not but I was so shocked I handed over the money. I’m just baffled.

Great crab sandwiches, perfect for putting in the cool box and walking down to the beach with, went back two days in a row for them. They do a proper coffee as well and a decent selection of cakes.

A must do stop if you are in the area. Steps aren't accessible at the moment because of cliff falls.

Surprisingly good sandwiches and baguettes, made to order. Cream team was good as well.

Insane location on the East Prawle village green with one of the most stunning views of the sea 1 min away. A real treat to visit after a long coastal walk. The shop sells a huge variety of high quality produce, the cafe offers delicious food and incredible coffee! Craig and Julie (the owners) are so lovely and welcoming. This is my favourite shop and cafe in the UK. It is so special. You MUST go!

Food was nice but found the burger too thick and not cooked enough to really enjoy the flavour

Called in on the off chance after torrential rain stoppedOur walkWhat a find !Really welcoming staff and the menu was great for lunchEnjoyed a great ploughman’s with local produce and picklesAnd a really nice cappuccino. Great for my coffee obsession !Our dogs were welcome tooI’d highly recommend this little cafe to everyone from today!

We visited for breakfast where we sat outside on the benches. You order at the door and food is brought to the table. The service was excellent and the staff were very attentive. Our food was good quality with good sized portions. We will definitely revisit.

lovely cafe and shop in East Prawle...a new family business...just reopened after lockdown..will bring food and drinks to tables on the green.. ..

We were some of the first customers after lockdown, and under the new management.We were told scones would take 15 minutes, but this was because they were baked fresh and served warm with real clotted cream and Tiptree jam. Very light and delicious. My friend ordered the platter, served with fresh baguette, perfectly hard boiled egg, with a gherkin, pickled onion, cheese and two chutneys. They were happy to go to the shop next door to get me an Earl Grey tea and the couple who have just taken over were friendly and chatty. The other food being brought it all looked very appetising. We wish them well in their new venture and are sure to return.

Fabulous bacon sandwich and lovely bread. We were a party of 5 and all ordered a different breakfast but our order was dealt with easily by the lady owner. All was piping hot and local ingredients.

Huge pot of tea for one, nice cup of coffee, big bacon and egg bap. Except there were no baps so apologetically it was served as a granary sandwich which was ever better. I think this is what village cafes should be - was being used by locals as well as the walkers/visitors.

Walking from Salcombe to East Prawle then lunch at the Piglet Cafe is a must. Very friendly staff with fresh food - good sized portions and a reasonable price. Outside seats in a sun trap as well as a pleasant internal eating area too.

Delicious food, gorgeously presented and super sweet staff. The owner and waitresses were absolutely lovely, and contributed to a very nice atmosphere Ordered cream tea for 2, one delicious fruit scone each, which was plenty. We were presented with ample clotted cream and strawberry jam. the cream. it was all delicious! I’d definitely recommend a visit to this little gem.........it is just around the corner from Nowhere!!!

Treated ourselves to a cream tea after walking part of the South West coastal path - freshest scones I've ever had! Delicious!

Had a wonderful Cream Tea at this lovely little Oasis near the beautiful South Devon Coast Path. 2 Beautifully Fresh Large Home Made Scones with Delicious Jam & Clotted Cream. Shared it with my husband with the addition of a 2nd pot of tea as 1 scone was a generous portion on its own. Tea was equally ‘spot on’ and served in bone china cups. What a find this place was and topped off a wonderful day of Coastal Walking in the most perfect way

Really enjoyed our lunch here, ploughman's platters were fresh, good price and friendly service too.

Great coffee, proper pot of tea, and delicious scones. Worth the walk to be rewarded by such a quaint friendly cafe, literary in the middle of nowhere!

Lovely little find for a late breakfast when out for a walks on the southern tip of Devon . Hearty breakfast with eggs,bacon and sausages from a local farm , fresh coffee , in a beautiful spot .

Friendly simple caff in sleepy East Prawle near southern Devon's stunning coast. They do great breakfasts - we enjoyed perfectly runny scrambled egg with bacon and sausages. Good coffee. The bill for three cooked breakfasts and coffee was £25. They also do simple lunches - soup, sandwiches etc.

Stopped here for 2 fish platters. We were more than delighted with them. They were fantastic and they certainly don't skimp on the seafood. Highly recommended

Serendipity. A perfect summer's day, a sleepy village square, a solitary walker eating a cream tea on the grass. A charming stone hut, fresh flowers on the tables and homemade food made by someone who obviously enjoys it. Relax. Your hunt for the perfect crab sandwich is over.

We had walked from Salcombe and arrived for a late lunch. Choice was pub or café. Café won as we wanted tea. Tables outside (plus the green) and in (which was helpful due to weather). Nice simple menu with home cooked items. We did arrive after lunch and some items had sold out - fair enough. Ploughman's was great but cheese toasties were wonderful. Ham sandwich was large and tasty. Is available for early evening dinners if you book in advance. We would (and will) visit again. Thank you.

Great little cafe. Very good food. Crab sandwich was excellent! Sandwiches quite pricey but you do get a lot with them.

Lovely little place to eat after a Devon walk. Friendly staff and fabulous crab sandwiches. Breakfast is great and the staff are happy to add/subtract things from the standard menu. Great little shop attached to the cafe too.

Decided to make a special trip here to fuel up with a hearty breakfast before a long journey. Was a little taken aback by the price for a full English (£8.95), but hey this is a remotish location in a touristy area so a paying a premium is to be expected. For this price however I would have hoped for almost unlimited tea and I asked for a large pot. I was stunned to then be charged a total of £12.95. When I said £4 was rather steep for extra tea, I was informed that they had charged me for tea for two people, so I said I'd make do with a one person pot. This reduced the cost to £10.95, because apparently tea or coffee was an optional extra to the food. I was stunned. I have NEVER been charged extra for a hot drink with a cooked breakfast in ANY cafe, restaurant or hotel. It is an integral part of the breakfast.

This is a little haven in the middle of nowhere! The cakes and coffee we had was delicious, and the girls who served us were efficient, but also very pleasant and welcoming.

Muy decepcionado - viajamos hasta Cafe se encuentra para conseguir algo de desayuno. El 3 de nosotros pedimos el desayuno completo. Desayuno llegó, y uno era corto de un huevo. Así explicó, un huevo frito fue debidamente entregado en un plato. Nos dimos cuenta de todos los desayunos el faltaban pan frito. . . . Por el momento en que llegamos, pero terminado el resto de la comida.

Cooked us breakfast even though we were to late, very friendly staff, excellent breakfast and coffee.

The Piglet Cafe is a cute business in the centre of East Prawle. You can sit inside or if it's sunny it's lovely to sit on the green outside. The food is very good quality, reasonably priced and good sized portions. My cream tea was lovely with a soft scone and plenty of jam and cream. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

Después de una bastante arduo paseo de tres horas que se encuentra en el llamado café por una taza de té y un almuerzo tardío. Una variedad de platos de comida, optamos por sándwiches con casa pickle hizo. También venían con ensalada y casero, delicioso, col. El sándwich era excelente, el servicio era bueno, una buena taza de té, tres tazas cada una! También razonable y amable. Tenía un váter limpio también. Recomendaría este café.

Aparecimos para almorzar y nos quedamos impresionados con la calidad de la comida y tenía un fantástico servicio. La lasaña tiene que tener una mención especial!

Visited Piglets Café in East Prawle after a glorious nine mile walk

Conducir por la costa encontramos este pequeño lugar para comer algo. La comida era sincero, cosas caseras, hechas a la orden! El servicio era muy amable y genial para comer!

Such a great location, but let down by the poor quality of food and rather miserable service. Disappointing.

Quite a big day on the South West Coast Path so there was some debate whether we would walk ( uphill ! ) to this little cafe.But we were very glad we did.We had superb crab sandwiches and quiche followed by some Salcombe ice cream The next debate was exactly where you rejoin the coast path..you have options..

We came across The Piglet while out walking in the area. We stopped and had toasted tea-cakes and tea which we enjoyed. We hope to visit again when we are next on holiday there.

A great find, brilliant food and made to feel so welcome including our dog. Loved the food and service, if your hungry go visit them

As a regular customer of Piglet, I can state with confidence that you should not visit; because if you do,you'll want to go again and then there might not be room for me. Wonderful, simple food, great location, great customer service; a real gem. Try the Devon cream tea, or Devon crab sandwich first...then go back and try all of their dishes. You won't be disappointed.

Our first thoughts had been to eat lunch at the pub opposite, but the welcome we received there was so poor that we immediately headed across the road to this cafe. It didn't look open from the road but the open signage was clear as we got closer and round the other side.The welcome was friendly and helpful, and the lady explained we could use card (unlike the pub) to make payment...as long as we went in their shop at the bottom of the building where the machine resides. The menu had sufficient choice for lunch and a delicious selection was served to the four of us. It was pleasing to find they are licensed to sell alcohol too so the pub experience was swiftly forgotten. The only quibble I had was that the bitter (Crispy Pig) was stored at room temperature and I'd have loved a cold beer (like the lagers and ciders they also sell). The lady advised that people prefer it warm - though the label also said to serve cold.We had a decent lunch there and were refreshed to continue our walk. Definitely recommend this cafe and its quirkiness. It's actually in East Prawle village and not Kingsbridge as per the postal address and TripAdvisor description.

This breakfast was a insult to the word breakfast, well over cooked bacon (and greasy ) cold beans,rock hard sausage and not that hot,very greasy slop which was meant to be hash brown ,bread dipped in fat ( fryed bread not ) half a cold Tom 1 mushroom slice, and a egg.1 round of cold toast which comes to the table 10 minutes before your so called breakfast,they obviously have no idea or pride in cooking .,if you do one thing on your holiday make it not to go to this cafe,the cost of this crap was £24.50 for 2 breakfast,1 tea cake , 1 apple juice and 2 chipped and dirty pots of tea,What a shame as in good location

Excellent eatery, way off the beaten track in an area used by walkers and campers, serving Breakfasts . Lunches and Dinner (by arrangement). Attached to the quirky village shop and opposite the Pigs Nose on the Village green. Everything you could wish for I one place. What more could you want.
