Secret Cupboard & Tea Garden in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Had a great lunch - the sharing platter. Great quality. Chutney superb - would have bought some if on sale - homemade. Busy, so had to wait but no problem with these views. All the food being brought out looked very good. Lovely surroundings. Highly recommended.

The cafe is in a spectacular setting overlooking the creek set in a pretty garden. We arrived on what is possibly the last day we will see warmth and sunshine, hence we hot footed it here. We had the platter for two. It was a very generous portion; smoked salmon, ham, mackerel, prawns, various cheeses, olives, chutney, silverskin onions with bread and cheese scones. We both enjoyed it, though we were not super keen on the prawns but really liked the ham. And the chutney is so so good. The tea was excellent,and my partner enjoyed his mocktail. Prices are very reasonable. This is definitely a place to come. And it is beautiful to walk around here, very peaceful. It's a place to sit back and relax in. You should not expect fast service. Check if it's open on their Facebook site. It will be closed pretty soon now. I think they aim to stay open until mid October but this is very weather dependent. Parking is very limited in Coombe. One needs to find space on the side of the single track road as one drives in. There is only turning space at the bottom. Whenever we have come to Coombe, we have not had a problem finding somewhere .

A wonderful find. A lovely friendly welcome and great cream tea. Very reasonable prices. Will definitely be returning.

Down for 3 nights from S Devon. Googled 'best Tea Garden in Cornwall' & Voila ! Stunning Riverside location, friendly owners and a superb beautifully realised contemporary Menu. The Goat Cheese Salad a particular highlight. Lovely afternoon chatting with the owners & counting our blessings. Tricky to find but we're back tomorrow for a late breakfast. Need I say more ? Genuine & superb.

We absolutely love this place. The couple who run it are really lovely and the food is great and really good value. I almost don't want to tell people about it as it's a fantastic secret just for us locals! 😂

Great place for relaxing English Breakfast . Great home cooked food . Eaten here on many occasions , and always great .

Went there with family, the food was at a very reasonable price and views were priceless. The staff were also very friendly.

Its not just the views that are spectacular at this fabulous little tea garden. A gentle walk brings you to a small slice of heaven. Fabulous views, only the sound of birds and leaves rustling disturbing the tranquility. Then there is the main event - the food! Oh my word - what can you say. The farmhouse platter for 2 is probably enough for 4! The quality of the scone, real, spreadable butter, the gorgeous cheeses..... I really could wax lyrical for days on end. But the standout, the ham and beef. Oh my word, that cold beef is the best I've had in years - my mouth is watering just thinking about it. I have also had the cornish breakfast there too - cracking fresh ingredients - and taste sublime. I cant wait to go back soon for cakes! Just get there and find heaven on a plate!

I absolutely loved this place. Such a beautiful peaceful garden. We had a very welcome jug of chilled fruit mocktail which was excellent and brownies with cream which were equally delicious. The owners were so friendly and welcoming. Thoroughly recommend. I'll definitely be back. Thank you.

Cornwall’s best kept secret! What a lovely hidden gem. Fantastic location and was so enjoyable to just sit and enjoy the peacefulness. Staff really friendly and the place was fairly busy. Great menu and enjoyed the Huntsmans. We will definitely be back. Thank you x

The location of this beautiful cottage cafe is absolutely stunning. Right by the creek leading on to the fal. Outdoor seating with cover available as the weather was fairly un predictable that day. We were warmly welcomed and allowed to sit wherever as we were the only people there to begin with. The non alcoholic sangria was lovely and refreshing. A good solid ploughman's. But the croissant with melted brie, bacon and mushrooms was absolutely superb. As a head chef myself in a hotel on the lizard peninsula it was such a joy to come somewhere peaceful and away from the maddening crowd. Will deffinately be back.

Booked breakfast for seven people. On arrival was informed that we had the date wrong and that they were expecting us the following day Checked the booking and we were correct and they had it wrong. No apology, No attempt to rectify the situation, in fact nothing. Rather annoying as we had someone from London with us and this was not the type of experience we had hoped for. We retraced our steps and found Lower Lanner Farm which is situated on the main road back out of Coombe What a difference! Friendly accommodating staff, Peaceful environment, Tasty food and good service. In fact the type of place one would revisit. This cannot be said for the Secret Cupboard & Tea Garden.
