Scoff Troff Cafe in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Lovely friendly cafe. Dog friendly too. Enjoyed a pot of tea, perfect for two and lunched on jacket potato with beef brisket topped with smoked cheddar and hubby had haddock pot which was tasty. Brilliant find.

Our favourite cafe in St Ives. Always come here whenever we're in St Ives. Lovely menu and staff really friendly. Efficient service and delicious food. We both had dirty chips with pulled beef. Big portion and really tasty. We'll be back AGAIN!

Lovely little friendly cafe. Tasty food and giant coffee, what more could you want?!

Our go to place for brunch in St Ives. Exceptional sausages and really friendly staff. Good grub.

Terrible food. Cheep store bought. Egg was swimming in oil. Turmeric latte artificial tasting. Charged extra for coconut milk - yet didn’t remove the cost of the standard milk… Loud table next to us with horrible dogs. Sat us next to the toilets. Couldn’t even find the place on Apple Maps - was showing it was at the other end of the road. Waiter was friendly. Won’t be going back.

Great food and atmosphere but no scrabbled egg for our table despite both tables either side of us having it and rudely refused marshmallows for children’s babychino when my eldest politely asked despite there being a big jar in the bar. 🤷🏽‍♂️ rude server letting the team down.

Living locally and working in St Ives it's amazing the places we haven't been to! First time today with my daughter and friend. Delicious soup and sandwich and staff couldn't be any better- polite, friendly and the food came quickly. We'll be back and highly recommended

Stayed in St Ives for the week and found ourselves going back.. 3 times! Lovely food, service and welcoming atmosphere.

Had Local Crab Sandwich and Crab Rarebit. Both taste good, but I love the Crab Rarebit the most. Make sure to try that one! 😉

Our ‘go to’ place when we have a wander around St Ives, any time of year. Dog friendly, very friendly staff, a menu just for dogs (ours had a Dog Ice Treat, but there are hot food options available) Their Chai Latte is one of the best you’ll find; not sickly sweet and not too spicy. No food for us today, but still lovely service.

Our pre wedding brunch at this interesting establishment was truly amazing. The food is all simply brilliant, and remember, you get what you pay for. Great taste, great quality, good times.

Visited both days on a recent weekend trip. Friendly service and food was lovely. Very dog friendly with a dog food menu as well

Love it here, we always call in when we can

It was a great find whilst it was chucking it down outside. Very nice and cosy! We had The Cuban and the crab sandwich, with the Cornish cream tea. They tasted really fresh and good portion size. The service was amazing as they were friendly and welcoming. There was also a dog menu for when we come back in the future with ours! 😊

Our poached egg came with one slice of toast, so we asked for another slice. That was charged at a further £1.75. Who serves poached egg on toast with one slice of toast? Also be aware that they also add, in line with a lot of cafes/restaurants now, a tip on the total bill.

Bordering the market square, this unassuming cafe/restaurant deserves all the accolades it receives. Yes, it’s busy but the turnover is quick as is the service. Despite the ‘no substitutions or alterations’ claim at the top of the menu they managed to russle up sausage and chips ( not listed) for my granddaughter without batting an eyelid. We had smoked haddock on creamy spinach with poached egg and some sort of luxury & glorious smashed avocado and chickpea posh sandwich with dukkah. Apple juices and hot chocolate all round. All generous helpings served by charming helpful staff. £48 well spent and seriously enjoyed. Well done.

What a fabulous little find. We enjoyed the most delicious late lunch on Boxing Day. How lucky we were that everywhere else had stopped serving food or we may never have found this lovely little cafe. The menu had something for everyone, including the dog who wolfed down her meal. All the staff were so friendly and accommodating even on such a busy day. Very lucky indeed and we will definitely be back

Love the new doggy menu! And love the vegan breakfast!

Nice food. Dog friendly. Good friendly service

Called in for coffee and cake ,both which were perfect . Will definitely vist again

A lovely dog friendly cafe, with a gorgeous menu. Cakes are fresh most days and so good! 👍🏼

Good place to go for breakfast or brunch

Needed some where for some breakfast on our first day in Cornwall. What a great breakfast we found. I had the full English, thoroughly recommended - you can always tell a good quality Full English but it’s sausages and these were lovely. Friendly staff and prompt service. Thoroughly recommended (but it’s not cheap)

Fantastic food, great staff and a good vibe to the place. Recommended for lunch! Nice to see a local business doing well. We'll be back!

Superb warm and welcoming service from all the staff. Added to the very large serving of soft, tasty, delicious scrambled eggs with applewood cheese with crisp streaky bacon on thick bloomer. And oh wonderful Cornish mist tea. A brilliant way to start our day in St Ives. Thank you,

Great service, a divine slice of chocolate and orange cake and pallettes for tables. Love this place. Oh it also has a doggo menu.

Lovely food, good service but very put off by latte’s served in glasses (as in for soft drinks rather than a latte glass/cup). It wasn’t until I checked the receipt later in the day that I saw a 10% service charge had been added. No mention of this on ordering or paying at the till but then why would they as it gives people a chance to decline. It won’t stop me retuning but I will be asking for the charge to be removed - service was standard!

Crab sandwiches were best we had anywhere. Full of crab. Fresh bread. Excellent service. Lovely polite and friendly staff.

Eggs Benedict 10/10, scrambled egg 10/10, dog menu 10/10

Nice cafe to enjoy a flat white in the middle of a St Ives packed out with Emmett's mooching about in packs as usual.

Great food, not expensive, plenty of choice.

Always visit when in Cornwall. Never fails to deliver. Great, well prepared food.

On a day trip by coach, I didn't have much time to wander around looking for somewhere for lunch, as I have Coeliac disease and need to eat Gluten Free, so I looked at Google reviews and found this gem. Lovely, friendly staff, great food and a can do attitude. I had a fabulous GF Cornish Crab sandwich, crisps and a Frappé. Perfect. Thanks guys. Great lunch. 😀

Good breakfast venue and thoroughly enjoyed what we had. Shame that a 10% service charge is added but at least it goes to the staff

Great food, Dog friendly, highly reccomend , you won't go away hungry that's for sure , even has a dog menu too ,

Just returned from a lovely week in St Ives and we ate here 6 days out of 7 for breakfast and cream tea. Owner and staff offer an excellent level of service including catering for gluten free. Service levels did not drop during busy periods which we really did appreciate. Quality produce cooked well. I’m not a coffee drinker but our friends said it was delicious. We can’t recommend this charming cafe enough 😊

We went there two days in a row.

Very good breakfast all cooked lovely and fresh.

The dog had his own bowl of sausage bacon and egg, but still wanted mine.

What a disappointment. It only takes one rude member of staff to spoil things. Yesterday we went, 2pm ish and it was great. Today we thought we would go again. Only this time we were spoken to in a rude manner. There was a family of 6 waiting outside for a big enough table. We waited outside for five minutes or so and could see several smaller tables that were unoccupied. As it was just two of us I spoke to the family to explain what I was going to to ask for a table for two, and ventured inside. The lady on the coffee machine, a blond middle aged European lady, looked towards me so I asked if there was a table. She said there are other people waiting before me and that I needed to go back outside. I did as I was told and went to another, friendly venue. So, it would be a score of 5 yesterday but a 1 for today….. Friendly , caring and thoughtful staff are worth their weight in gold. One bad apple can kill a business .

The crab sandwich was excellent, service was swift and seating 5 of us right away in peak season. 3 of our table had brisket, and all 3 said it wasnt the best, but could eat it. It os pricey as lunch for 5 was £100. The drinks were very nice.

Food and service were fantastic

A genuinely friendly cafe, with good food at reasonable prices.

St. Ives in summer season is a VERY busy place, so it was lovely to find such a nice café that also had space for us. The staff were very friendly and efficient in their queue management, looking down the line and spotting that we were a couple and so seating us ahead of a much larger group who were waiting for a bigger table to clear, saving us from having to stand and wait unnecessarily. There were gluten free options available for my wife, which she enjoyed, and a very hearty breakfast option for me, which I very much enjoyed. Everything was well laid out and nicely, yet subtly branded (such as embossed wooden clipboards for the menu with the café name/logo on them.) Free wifi for those who needed it too. We ended up visiting four times over the course of our holiday and were equally impressed each time.

Great food lovely staff and great service

Decent food and good location. Good vegan/veg options. Service could be improved, I was standing outside the restaurant for ~10 mins before someone addressed. I understand it was busy but at least acknowledge your customers.

We enjoyed breakfast, and it's dog friendly. Poached eggs on toast 😋. They even have a doggy 🐕 menu..

Food was ok but the girl staff members just dropped plates down on the table. They seemed to be in a hurry when there was no need to be. Squashed up in the middle table by the bar so everyone coming passed kept knocking us. They had a delivery and some large fella tried to squeeze by with his big delivery baskets. Felt very uncomfortable

Lovely food, great staff and dog friendly- even a separate menu for the dogs 😊

Food was fantastic! Highly recommend 🥪

Breakfast was excellent 5/5, let down slightly by rather surly service. Much better breakfast than the Balcony bar breakfast earlier in the week for the same price. Big portion size for the large full English.

Delish delish went in quite early thank god we did as we walked past it later was rammed. Yummy breakfast, tea and scone!

Great little cafe by the sea, nice food and staff. Service can be quite slow sometimes. Quite noisy on 2 occasions, like disturbingly!

Food was lovely but lacking service with a smile so made the atmosphere a bit uncomfortable 😬

So glad we found this place, we stopped to fill our bellies before exploring the town and so glad we did. The food was sooo good, especially the scrambled eggs on toast and plenty of it!! Highly recommend!

Coffee and cake..full menu from, pizza, burger, sandwich, grills and the like. Gluten Free Options available.

We ate here 3 times as luckily for us our accommodation was just around the corner. A busy, friendly little café full of satisfied customers. Very tasty breakfasts 😁

Food was OK. Overpriced for what it is though. Menu descriptions sound way better then what you actually get.

Poor service & very average food. I didn't feel welcome here as the waitresses look quite grumpy and one of them brought the drink to our table without saying anything and just walked away. Like what was that? The breakfast was so so average that I wasn't able to finish...worse than hotel or pub standard breakfast. Only good thing was there was a tall waitress with glasses and she was super nice and friendly all the time. Thanks to her our experience wasn't completely ruined.

Beautiful food, lovely staff! Overall great experience! Recommend! Vegan options available which is always a bonus!!

Visited this restaurant for the second time for breakfast and it was just as lovely as the first time! There are many options including gluten free options! The waitress was amazing and really took the time to discuss options with my husband regarding his allergies. We also had a 9 year old and 5 year old with us and they also loved the different options they could choose from. Dog friendly as well! Will definitely be returning the next time we are in St Ives

Great little place for breakfast 🥞 polite staff, service with a smile, great beverages, all in good experience, they do allow dogs in tho.

A full house on Sat morning. True reflection of the quality of food, service and coffee. The crab meat toastie was incredibly delicious. Highly recommend it if you are a crab lover.

Standard food and service. Found it pricey though

Family of 4 Cream teas and selection of amazing cakes Great selection of hot and cold drinks Great service Reasonably priced Would recommend and return

Lovely crab sandwich in granary bread and redbush tea 😋

A gem of a cafe that was perfect for three generations of our family, which isn't an easy achievement. Great service, great food and very friendly.

Great breakfast, friendly staff and atmosphere.

only one star because i can’t give 0 stars, really feel let down by my experience (£30 breakfast) it was DRY. SMALL. SOGGY BREAD. the coffee was watery and flavourless… asked for a ICED coffee and there was NO ICE!!! it was luke warm. got their and sat for 15 minutes with previous customers dirty plates on the table. wetherspoons breakfast is better. should have gone spoons.

We went in for breakfast and the food was really really good. Service was friendly and quick. Would definitely recommend this for breakfast for anyone visiting St. Ives.

Nice place for a snack/meal on the go 😋 if you're visiting St Ives in Cornwall ...

Very nice restaurant, with very friendly staff. The food was very fine. I can only recommend.

We had the Welsh rarebit wirh bacon and chicken & stuffing sandwich. All made fresh, very tasty Friendly accommodating staff Good prices too 👍 Will be back

Had the tea and scones which were decent but heated up so they lost their charm a little. My partner had the crab sandwich which she said was great. Service was quick and pricing was fair 👍👍

Overall the experience was good. The atmosphere was nice and they had some good music on. when we got the bill a 10% service charge has been added. It should be my choice if I want to tip should it not? However, I did order a Biscoff latte that was delicious, but it was served in a normal drinking glass. It was too hot to pick up so I use my initiative and used a paper napkin that was provided. would’ve preferred it in a mug.

Super breakfast in St Ives, lovely grub and good service, what a start to a Cornwall summer day. Eggs & avacado with perfect poached eggs

On a whole scoff troff is a great little cafe for food and drink, we came for breakfast at which we were very pleased with. But when we received the bill we saw that a 10% service charge was added, but with the service I don’t think I would have added 10% I’m sad to say, a tip should be the customers choice to add don’t you think? 🤷‍♀️ One of the staff members was very miserable and kept pulling faces which I thought was very unprofessional and didn’t make a good atmosphere. The other staff members were all in all very pleasant though. I would recommend but it’s not at the top of the list for St Ives, I’m sad to say.

Great lunch, arrived quickly. Friendly staff.

We read the reviews here on Google and decided to check out this cafe. Glad we did! The highlight was the doggy menu and took the longest to read and decide on (for our dog). Loved that his dish came in a special dish :) Our sandwiches were lovely and delicious too :) We were quite full after them so shared a piece of the orange chocolate cake which was very good. Service was wonderful so all in all a great experience.

Wow is all I can say. Amazing door step sandwiches, so tasty. Definitely recommend a visit if you are in St Ives

We had been here for breakfast before, and once again, we weren't disappointed. We both had their big breakfasts with fresh orange juice. They do a fabulous menu to choose from, from breakfast cocktails to waffles etc. You have a slight wait whilst it is being cooked, but it's well worth it. All freshly cooked, fried eggs were perfect, and everything else too. Highly recommend this place. I know from past experience they also do a great coffee & tea selection. Staff are friendly and polite too. Enjoy!

We only went in for a coffee. But when we saw the menu we decided to have lunch. The crab 🦀 sandwiches were superb as was the coffee. Icing on the cake was the doggie menu. Absolutely fantastic. Our pooch had the "pork it out" sausage, bacon and scrambled egg. Her le creuset dish was licked clean.Although quiet when we went in it filled very quickly always a good sign of a quality establishment. Keep up the good work. You are doing everything right. Personally we Found an absolute gem of a place. If you are in St Ives please don't walk by without trying!!!!!!

Small place rather noisy. Had the fishfinger sandwich and chips. Fishfinger and lettuce slid off the bread not sure if it was the mayo. But even when trying to cut the sandwich it was quite difficult sliding about. At almost £14 we did expect a nicer presentation. The fishfinger barm at porthminster beach cafe was really lovely at £6.75 you salad tartar sauce and a wedge of lemon. I would check theirs out and take note.

Had the Cornish cream tea and was really disappointed.. it was the tiniest scone which there was only 1 of. Was still cream and jam left in pots as the scone was so small and didn’t taste fresh. For over £6 I would have expected a lot better. Will google best place to go for Cornish cream tea next time.

Tasty! Popped in for breakfast here - and what a busy place it is. Very funky decorations, with the staff all very busy. Orders were taken swiftly, drinks and food arrived in a quick time. I had the posh eggs - which was really good. Everyone else was happy with their choices. Come here for something, you won't be disappointed!

Visited with family for breakfast. One of us had the Scoffs English breakfast, which was apparently very good, while the rest of us opted for the Eggs Benedict with bacon. The eggs were perfectly cooked, however, the bacon was a little overcooked and tough for our liking. Think it was most likely because they were busy, as we also had a bit of a wait and had to ask for a menu. C'est la vie.

Visited twice this weekend and loved our breakfast. The staff very friendly and welcoming and food was delicious

We have been going to the Scoff Troff Cafe for a few years now when we are in St Ives and always enjoyed our visits with good food and friendly staff. Unfortunately this year the experience hasn't been so good, slow service, average food and one member of staff who drops the drinks and plates on the table without even an acknowledgement. If you're desperate for something to eat without another option then give it a go.

I am from South Africa, visiting family in Scotland and England. This was my first visit to St Ives and I googled a breakfast spot as I am vegan. I was blown away at the menu and friendly owners and staff. The food was so tasty and well-presented. My niece is not vegan but she enjoyed her meal too. They really do care and cater for all food choices

Really attentive staff very helpful and informative even though they were extremely busy not too long to wait for the food even though everything is cooked to order the lunch we had was amazing fishless finger sandwich with chunky chips

We took our dog I'm for his 1st cafe trip and we all loved it. Really nice cafe and staff. They even had a doggy menu, he got an ice cream!!

5 stars for the haddock pot and crab rarebit. Delicious and inventive.

Great little Caffè in st Ives, delicious breakfast and lovely staff!

super nice coffee from lovely Romanian lady , coming back on yearly bases now for poached eggs

Horrendous breakfast experience. Unfortunately the menu descriptions did not match the absolute garbage that was served. The “breakfast sandwich” was the cheapest pieces of bread with the most over cooked egg I have seen in my life shoved in the middle. Clearly someone doesn’t understand what sandwich means.

I ordered an avocado toast and received a half avocado to carve out myself, along with poached eggs which I saw staff cook in the microwave. The bread was not even toasted!

Really friendly staff and great food!

Great cafe in the heart of St Ives. Great selection of drinks and breakfast, with friendly service. Coffee was also excellent 👍

Gorgeous place with interesting mixed fresh drinks like elderflower and raspberry cooler plus biscoff lattes. Food was quick but also delicious and fresh. Very funky/trendy cafe with great food and drinks however for three of us it cost nearly £60

The food was served quick and tasted amazing, very cheesy chips. The bathroom did have some mold-like stuff on the ceiling but overall very nice.
