Poppies in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Really lovely cafe with amazing coffee and sweet treats 🍰

This is a café in a setting that supports people with learning disabilities so it has a lovely atmosphere all of it's own. The café part has only recently reopened after closing in lockdown and the new café manager is a great cook and baker and is passionate about the food that she serves. There are lots of drinks on offer including for little ones. Call in for breakfast, lunch, drinks, cakes. Food can also be boxed up for takeaway for local workers. Vegan and gluten free options. Food can even be blended for customers who need it. Dog friendly, disability friendly. The building houses the only Changing spaces toilet in Penzance.

Nice group of people who volunteer. I did hear the management being rather derogatory towards a disabled volunteer. Nice food and drink.

Warm and welcoming. Bit short on vegan options though!

Great little cafe. All welcome .

nice home cooked food. a place to sit and chat, meet friends. easy for shops and facilities. i like lunch, served all day just about

I bought a flat in the same building as Poppies and it was cheaper for me to eat at Poppies than make the food for myself. I have had many dishes and all have been nice. Yes it isn't 5 star dining, but it is good, home-cooked food at more than fair prices. You will meet nice people, both the staff and other customers. Customer service has always been exemplary, nothing is too much bother. Try the bread pudding with custard, you won't be sorry!

I thought very friendly and very helpful staff and understanding

Friendly community space, sit and drink a coffee, read a book, speak to people. Very handy when out shopping, a retreat and sit down for a break.

Always very welcoming and friendly. I really enjoy meeting people there. Good tea and superb cakes!

Poppies is a unique cafe catering for all abilities it is part of the public toilet scheme it caters for able bodied people and those with disabilities there is a hoist avaliable for public use the mess are very reasonable and are freshly made on site it is a very friendly place, why not try it out for yourself.

Found this place today and was very impressed this place helps special needs socialise with the community, the staff are fantastic

Good prices get a lot for your money excellent

Lovely staff nice food. Good cosy ambience.

Very good cake and coffee staff very friendly

Great place to eat. Best café in Penzance. Proper home cooked food for the cheapest price. Can't do better anywhere else. Polite and friendly staff and a lovely community feel.

Fantastic place fresh cooked meals for extremely good value. Friendly staff.

Lovely relaxing atmosphere. Everyone makes you feel welcome

The best prices on real good home cooked food in Penzance. Seriously, you cannot make the food at home for less, and I certainly cannot cook this well!

A well run place alongside the work that outreach do with people with disabilities . great to meet up with some of their service users. suitable for a light lunch , most diets can be accomodated.

It is friendly and the staff are polite from neil

They are helpful and the volunteer staff are amazing there are loads of of friends who go to poppies on Saturday s especially Kristy prisk she is amazing because she helped me with my lines and she did a fantastic job of going the play with me and my friends at the john Daniel centre and I always go in for s chat and a cup of decade latte

Very friendly and great atmospere

I have been visiting poppies for a few months enjoying the food that represents really good value for money, in January I became a vegetarian (a morel choice) And I told the chef this, despite the meat based menu I still went back because it was a very comfortable for a pit stop, For 3 days I went in on the bounce, and to my surprise everything on the menu was vegetarian and it was very good value for money and the food tasted great, this cafe' also is a safe venue for adults with learning disabilities and is a place were they can feel safe. I would recommend it to anyone

Often visit here for light bites with family and also with friends. The snack meals are tasty and very affordable. Wheelchair friendly and always has great art on the walls.

Lovely bright clean cafe serving very good value food. A super place,if you're a carer for some respite and to meet others doing the same job. Very friendly staff.

I had coffee and home made cake in a cafe that was full of atmosphere and obviously well liked by the community. The cafe was clean, accessable and has great disabled toilet facilities

We came across a street board, with an advert for this café, and thought we would give it a try, they only do 3 main meals, but have a very good selection of cakes, with a good selection of drinks. The food was excellent, we had the pasta. Go and have a look, we will recommend.

When in Penance you really must visit. Fantastic place. Very friendly and a truly amazing relaxed atmosphere. Food is excellent too and great value .

Love the staff. Love the pictures and the art and crafts in here. Cheap food, good quality coffee. All home made each day. I go in here as often as possible. And recommend to everyone. Can't believe that this place can make any profit at their prices. Never disappointed.

On my holiday,I found this cafe by chance on a rainy day-nearly passed by without seeing it. I went in and was surprised at the prices; Hot beverages for 1 Pound, and meals extremely cheap. I had coffee and cake, and baked potatoe when I went a second time with a friend. The cafe is clean and the stuff is very friendly. It is run by PRC Outreach who support handicapted people. There is also a meeting point in the cafe for them. Would recommend this very much, will definetely return!

My sister took me here for lunch whilst I was visiting her. Loved the food, the cost, the setting and the concept of a community cafe. Exceptional value and service. I think the cost was £5 for 2 meals with a side salad, including a fabulous home made coleslaw, and 2 drinks. I would highly recommend Poppies.

I love this place - to me it is everything a community cafe should be. Reasonably priced drinks and cakes, a selection of snacks for lunch, friendly staff and spotlessly clean too. I took my sister and we had 2 cold drinks, a vegetable lasagne and small salad, flan and small salad for £5. Yes £5! Both the flan and lasagne were tasty - obviously not huge portions but adequate for a light lunch. There is day room attached that accommodates people with disabilities so the facilities are excellent for anyone with additional needs. So lovely to have an inclusive cafe. I would recommend this to anyone shopping in Penzance. Head towards Causeway Head, walk down Bread Street and its a few streets down on the left hand side.
