St Ives Brewery Cafe in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We stopped here whilst in St Ives. It was a lovely reprieve from the busy streets of St Ives, dog friendly and we were pleasantly surprised to find some of their beers on tap there so stopped for a swift half. Lovely beer, the Slipway pale ale was fab and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a little visit.

What a view! A really well placed cafe/bar (by the big car park) with such a lovely view of the beach. I came here on Friday afternoon as I was after a scone! I wasn’t disappointed, had a beauitful warm scone with jam and clotted cream and a very tasty iced coffee overlooking the beach in the sun. So relaxing. Would recommend to anyone

What a lovely chilled out experience, tasting a few beers in the brewery shop in St Ives centre. The guy serving was outstanding, chatty and superb knowledge on everything on sale.

Very poor, hake was dry just didnt work, mackerel starter also dry tasteless. Daughter had fillet ,pepper sauce, more like a paste, tagliatelle awfull tasteless

I cant comment on the cafe only the small shop below selling their fine alcoholic beverages! Very helpful guy int the store, I happily came away with a pack Porth pilsner cans, I think they are in the process of moving location for this shop at least, its just below the cafe, unfortunately right next to the public loos!

Worth it for the view alone! Tasty food with options to meet various dietary needs. Friendly to my toddler with highchairs and a changing table.

Only had a drink and cake, but it was nice, and other food coming out looked good. Staff were friendly, which is always a plus point. Place was clean, and good views from high up.

Real life Cornish pirates! After a 2 hour drive to St.Ives arrived to find the public toilets closed my wife purchased 2 coffees from the St. Ives brewery cafe at £6 just so we could use their loos, I was told I could use the the toilets in the town over half a mile away. The staff were bulshy and rude.

Amazing view, some great local gins to buy and one of the best breakfast bars I have had in a long time - very helpful and friendly staff team

St Ives during half term week was like a week in August… crazy busy! Rather than try and fight for a spot in one of the cafes in Town we decided to have lunch at the St Ives Brewery Cafe… what an absolute delight! 😊 Amazing food, awesome coffee and fantastic food!! What a hidden gem… for years we have parked in the car park next door and just walked past… never again.

Great coffee and cake. Lovely view over St Ives with nice outdoor terrace or inside seating. Friendly service. Reasonably priced. Big slabs of cake! Would recommend.

Great place to stop for a beer and a cocktail overlooking St Ives. We called in just after doing the Escape Time. Shame it was shut for a private function the next day, otherwise we would have gone back.

Perfect refreshment spot above St Ives. What a view!! Lovely staff, great decor, amazing and tasty food, what’s not to love? We will be returning! A great place to start or finish your day in St Ives - bang opposite the car park. Makes the walk up the hill worth it!

Called in for cream tea. Lovely fresh scones and plenty of clotted cream. Friendly staff, beautiful view of the bay. Situated near leisure centre.

Very friendly staff and amazing views over the town. The coffee was great and the sandwich and bagel some of the best we’ve ever had. The beer is pretty good too!

I luv the location of this cafe, coffee is lovely. My only problem, whilst your waiting for them to open, its never on time your left without an apology. The staff aren't the friendliest compared to other cafes/restaurants around the town. You almost feel like your disturbing their day.

Called in for cake and drinks. Went for the view and stayed for the food. Lemon drizzle and and ginger slice were superb. View was fabulous and plenty of room on the outside terrace. I would highly recommend this as a great cafe to sit...

If you want to sit back and relax with either a coffee and a cake or even a cheeky cocktail, this is your go to place! Out of the buzz of the town centre, it's so relaxing and peaceful. Lovely friendly staff and we can't...

it's easy walking distance from St Ives town centre. Found this place by accident. I did a coach trip to St Ives and this unassuming place was right next to the coach car park. It really should have better signs as you had to be...

The walk up here is quite steep but so worth it for the amazing view. We had a lovely breakfast and enjoyed the sun on the terrace. We even took home some beers from the shop which were also great. Little hidden gem.

Short menu, covid compliant, friendly, great views, nothing fancy but hits the bullseye. Bit off the tourist track, up above the town by car park, but worth the detour.. Tops!

We stopped because i needed oxygen at the top of that mental hill! Had lovely drinks with a stunning view served by fabulous ladies! Thank you so much

This delightful cafe and staff helped us through a rather difficult day. We had driven over to St Ives from Crantock to have breakfast on the harbour front and had parked in Trenwith car park. The inclement weather played havoc with our plans but we...

Lovey and friendly place with excellent lunch options, and of course, beers! The views across the bay are unrivalled and the gift shop is great for souvenirs!

So I pooped to the bewy caf about a coupl light year A go and ordere tast goo goo a special at de pls rock toasty hehe deliciousdddddx ;)

I really liked the food here. Especially the rock on brewery tasted wonderful as you will see in the photo...Yummy.

Sadly this has to go down as the worst breakfast we’ve ever had- burnt sausage, burnt sauté potatoes and really awful baked beans -recommended and very disappointed that just tasted awful- - we were recommended and so disappointed

As St Ives locals we have many great places to eat, but for consistently delicious food and friendly service we regularly find ourselves drawn back to the Brewery Cafe. There are great views over the town and without doubt the very best Sausage Baps (with...

This is an excellent place to eat and the views are supereb. Just next to the car park. Attended a wedding in August of my Grand Daughter Magical experience. Food very good too.

We did not visit the cafe but the gift shop underneath the cafe. The gentleman who served us was very nice and we sampled some of the beers. We were told that there was a very good offer on the Belgian Ale if we purchased...

This was a pleasant surprise, only a short distance from our holiday apartment. The cafe is immediately above the brewery and sells a selection of their beers and ciders etc, which were superb. We had great views on a lovely sunny day and the waitress...

Visited for a drink after positive reviews on here, wasn’t disappointed. Nice decked area outside with views over the town and harbour in the distance. Friendly and good service. Unfortunately didn’t have the beer brewed on site that I wanted but was recommended an alternative.

My purpose for going up the hill was to visit the gift shop! Decided to stay up there and have a drink as there was space on the balcony. Lovely flat whites and gorgeous view. What more could you want?!

Being a fan of the Brewery it was only a matter of time before we dropped in for a drink. We ordered 2 bottle of beer and 2 Tarquinius G&Ts. Seated outside looking at the fantastic view of St Ives harbour, service was good and the drinks excellent on a hot day.

Amazing views across the bay and town. Great sandwiches, wraps and panini and of course excellent beers!!

Accueil chaleureux, beaucoup de gentIllesse et de patience ( malgré de nombreux touristes qui entrent, sans gêne, pour utiliser les toilettes - le restaurant est situé près d’un grand parking -).Très bons produits frais pour un repas rapide...Le plus: la terrasse offre une très belle vue sur St Ives....Un très bon début de journée pour nous ....

The views are stunning and the food delicious highly recommend nothing i can't add to it a little gem

A really helpful team - Marco in particular, who went out of his way to help us after a visit to the gift shop. Really fabulous spot - delicious cakes - and good, local gins on sale. Highly recommend!

The building is really good it’s really nice and clean and it has amazing view looking over st ives the hot drinks (tea and latte) tasted brilliant the lemon and chocolate brownies was amazing

My partner and I love this little hidden gem. Both the food and staff are 5 star! We absolutely love St Ives but it’s also lovely to escape on a busy day and this place has such a relaxing calm atmosphere. Best cream tea in St Ives!!

Team very helpful and welcoming and absolutely the best cream tea we have tasted - scones home made, warm and very light - and so much cream and jam we had to ask for a third scone to use it up. Amazing views down to beach and harbour.

What a lovely lunch, had beer that is brewed onsite a nice ware cream tea and staff that are nice and help. Recommend highly

We visited the cafe to try the St Ives Brewery Beers and I must say they are well worth it. I had a cream tea, the tea was very nice not too weak and the scone was fresh and warm. We were greeted on arrival and asked to take a seat, the view was amazing and staff very friendly and welcoming. The brewery shop was closed but this didn't matter because you can buy the beer to take home from the cafe. I will definitely be visiting for a brewery tour in the summer. The walk was worth it.

This review refers to Marco's Brewery Tour and Tasting only:

We came to have breakfast in the cafe to find they were having a well-earned weekend break so will come back in the week since it really is such a great place with wonderful service - staff who really are kind and helpful.

Had a lovely lunch here yesterday and took in one of the best views of St Ives. Great people, food and environment. Thank you.

Went for breakfast with a friend for the first time and couldn’t have asked for anything better, apart from the sun of course! The food was beautiful and the service was fab, thank you!

Great view and really lovely coffee. Very friendly staff. Good value and choice of coffee. Car park above and walk down to St Ives. Steep walk back up!!

Visited for a drink and a bite to eat. The food and the view was lovely but the waitress was very rude. It says take a seat and we’ll come to you, she arrived at our table and said “yes”. I said we’d not yet seen the menu. She gave us the menu and then said before I’d even had a chance to read the first item “do you know what you want or are you going to need a long time to look at it”. She went off to serve someone else then came back to take the order. My wife asked if she could have no onion in her sandwich, when it arrived it seemed to have more onion then anything else! Once removed, the sandwich was very nice.

Came here with my partner and little girl and was made to feel welcome as soon as we walked in. There’s a toy box to help keep little ones occupied and a good selection of sandwiches available. We had freshly made sandwiches on lovely Turkish bread with really good coffee. Will definitely go back and next time try some of the ales brewed downstairs.

After buying the brew house ale online a few years ago and seeing the amazing posts on Instagram my wife and I decided that we'd like to visit and see first hand where the magic happens.

Can I say how rude the staff are. Took my money elsewhere. Lost my business for good. And will not buy there beer again

We parked in the car park and we were delighted to find the cafe. We intended to visit last time we were in St Ives. We had the full English as an end of holiday treat and it didn’t disappoint. Delicious food and lovely friendly staff. Even though the weather decided to turn to drizzle before we had finished we braved it out and remained outside. If you are on St Ives you must visit it’s lovely.

Called here for lunch with our two year old little boy after swimming at the leisure centre.

We went here for breakfast with our two girls. Lovely food and drink with a great view of the sea. Service a bit slow

Food was good. Nice sandwiches, good size kids sandwich. Loved the smashed avocado and poached eggs. Amazing views from the terrace. Really good location to look over St Ives and see the harbour from a distance.

Beautiful views from the terrace across St Ives and the sea. Very friendly welcome from the staff and a great recommendation over which cider to drink. The cream tea was delicious with soft, fluffy, warm scones and plenty of cream and jam.

We called in for drinks only, so can't judge the food. Good selective or locally brewed beers and other drinks, such as gin.

Weil wir gerne Craftbeer trinken, war ein Besuch des St Ives Brewery Cafes Pflicht für uns bei unserem Aufenthalt in St Ives. Da es etwas außehalb liegt, gingen wir zum Frühstück hin und bestellten das English Breakfast. Obwohl das Lokal nicht sehr voll besetzt war und die meisten anderen Gäste auch das English Breakfast bestellten, mussten wir über eine Stunde auf unser Essen warten. Die Bedienung entschuldigte sich für die Wartezeit und als sie uns schließlich unser Essen brachte, wurden wir geschmacklich nicht enttäuscht. Die Portion war sehr reichhaltig, sodass wir trotz großen Hungers am Ende gesättigt das Lokal verließen.

Amazing views and wonderful coffee. As a side note - the cleanest and most well equipped toilets I’ve seen! Nice atmosphere and although a bit of a wait, food was cooked to order. Lovely place.

Called in today with the family and we weren’t disappointed. Great service and the food was delicious. 100% recommend a visit especially on a sunny day when you can sit outside and admire the views of St Ives.

Nice food with a great view washed down with a lovely local ale, whats not to like?! The sun was blazing and felt like we were abroad sat on the decking overlooking the harbour. Back next weekend for sure!

We parked in the top car park and spotted this cafe and decided to pop by on our way back up the hill. We were blown away by the stunning view and great hot coffees! The cakes were also very tempting and we couldn’t resist. We found the Brewhouse to be a really relaxed atmosphere and the staff were lovely and attentive. We most definitely will return!

I’ve just left the cafe with my husband and a friend! We had two decaf lattes and an Americanism, I specifically asked the waitress for the lattes to be hot! We waited a long time and they arrived only just waste. I took them to the counter to ask for them to be made hotter. I returned to our table and waited at least 15 minutes for them. One of the waitresses behind the counter seemed more interested in her phone! We live local and thought we’d have a change in our Csfe choice. We won’t be returning here!!

Popped in here for what we thought would be a quick brunch before heading home. Also joined by a local who had not eaten here before. My Sister in law had recommended this café.

Lovely cafe with fantastic views apart from the big roof in front (how did that get permission?). Ordered bacon roll as advertised. 2 thick slices of bacon and cheese. After 25 minutes wait we checked to see if it was coming. After 30 minutes it came. Not a roll as ordered but a sandwich and however hard I looked I couldn’t find the second rasher! The bread was lovely though.

This cafe is a real must go to having some really wonderful views across St Ives from up by the Leisure Centre which has a large car park, buses down to the town or you can walk down the steps near to the cafe / brewery. Excellent service, friendly staff and great food. Breakfast was a little early to have a drink, but there is a really great brewery shop underneath, where you can also see the brewery. Will be back

We decided to walk up to cafe but be aware its a very steep hill so maybe catch the bus up there as its opposite the leisure centre. View was lovely and sausage and onion sandwich was nice and we sampled the brewery's ipa. Only negatives one of the glasses bought to the table was dirty but they exchanged it and gift shop was shut and if u want to do the tour there has to be six or more.

Brewhouse is situated across from the Leisure Centre and big carpark and next to the footpath that takes you into the town in five minutes. It has a lovely terrace for nice days and big windows with view of St Ives. There is a modern fresh feel to the place and it is well worth stopping there for a snack or just coffee after your walk into town.

Went on recommendation and wasn’t disappointed. Food was great,service good. Parking available and views amazing. Oddity no food between 11.30 & 12.00. One menu finishes other starts. Staff friendly gave us advise on alternative walk back to where we had parked our car. We walked up from St Ives bit of a hill but worth it. Pity was no crab but seemed St Ives wide as a friend happened to be in town at the same time and no crab. Maybe next time.

Located next to the Leisure centre and the foot path down to the town. This would be an easy one to miss when heading into StIves from the car park .... don't !

Just across the road from the health centre is the purpose built brewery café, what a find.

We travelled 4 hours to St Ives and as we were early for our accomodation, decided to park in car park and go and have breakfast. This cafe was just down by the pathway into town so decided to stop, well so glad we did. It must be one of the best breakfast my husband and myself have had, all local ingrediants and cooked to perfection.

Me and my friend went here for a mid-week breakfast treat and loved it! There is a car park right next to it which is handy and the cafe looks right over St.Ives. I had the small english breakfast and a hot chocolate, both were really nice and fairly priced!

Had the sandwich on the delicious Turkish bread ( supplied by the wonderful St Ives bakery) and accompanied by wonderful Boddingtons chutney. Very very tasty especially washed down with their own beer.

Ate here several weeks ago. Lovely views and clean premises. Food was pretty good. Three of us had sausage in a bun and one of us had a chicken roll with salad and crisps. My main criticism is that the service was quite unfriendly and abrupt.

My husband and i walked here for a cream tea late afternoon. We were greeted by a friendly man with a beard.....think he may have been in charge. When the cream tea came we had tea for two, loads of jam and cream and two scones each....fab and it was 6.50 each. View stunning over looking the harbour.....look for the blue tables and chairs outside only 4 or 5 hard to find unless u look hard but on main walkway at wrarf. Well worth a visit.

The waitresses were abrupt and rude when we asked for coffee. They made no effort to smile, greet us with a hello and when we asked for coffee they were dreadfully rude, and abrupt. No wonder the place was empty apart from one customer. There are many places to frequent as a local in St Ives and this is not one of them. We decided to leave and go elsewhere. A most disappointing experience.

What a lovely place to have a little rest. The cakes and drinks are all good along with friendly staff...the view is amazing too. Also recommend the shop and brewery below the cafe too - great gifts l!

Called in for teas, coffee and cakes on way back to car park. Excellent Mocha.

We always breakfast here when we visit St Ives. Located just across the road from the park & ride, we park early, have breakfast then get the bus into town. The staff are always very friendly and efficient, and the food is great at the reasonable price. The best feature for us is, it is dog friendly. If the weather is nice, you can sit outside on the terrace, otherwise you can dine inside.

Das Café lag überhaupt nicht auf unserem täglichen Weg, daher sind wir nur zufällig

We have been here before for coffee and it was nice so we though we would pop in for some lunch.

The Spanish / Italian sandwich is incredible, I had it on the Turkish flat bread really exceptional. Coffee and brownie good too. Great views. Good service.

We stopped over on our way to town from the car park (long walk ahead). The cakes looked abs. Superb so we decided to have cake and tea, overlooking the beautiful bay.

Superb breakfast, good fresh ingredients. Also try the sausage bap it's amazing. The views over St Ives harbour and town are an added bonus.

What's not to like? Tasty sandwiches, well presented by friendly staff served with delicious beer and followed with great cake. With great views for good measure and the chance to purchase the great beer to take home from the shop below.

Visited on a weekend break after seeing lots of posts on Instagram and consequently following.

The views from this café are amazing and will be better once all the works have stopped on the house being built! Service was excellent and plenty of variety on the menu. I ordered a almond milk hot chocolate and sausage roll (sausage sandwich) in St Ives bread - which was the best I have ever eaten! You could easily spend all day looking at the views.

Came here in a rush for lunch, expecting an some sandwich and coffee. We were pleasantly surprised by the friendly service, fresh and tasty food and the great view over St.Ives. A great surprise!

We booked to go to the Brewhouse for the evening as a private party whisky staying in St Ives and so glad we did !! we sampled wonderful beers and drinks from the brewery fabulous food Mexican style and lots of it !! suitable for the teenagers and adults with us and had great deserts and coffee and lovely service xx would definitely recommend a walk up there if your in St Ives and you get amazing views from the beautiful balcony ❤️

Many Thanks Brewhouse and Team for putting on such a great event for all our party, we had an amazing evening with a bespoke dinner along with some great beers overlooking the wonderful harbour of St Ives. Massive Thanks

My friends and I recently visited the St. Ives Brewery for a fabulous tour. Marco was extremely welcoming and gave us a very interesting talk on the brewing process. We also got to sample his lovely Ales/lagers which are well worth the trip for. We then had a lovely lunch in the cafe which has breathtaking views of the bay. Marco, thank you for looking after us so well. We will definitely be back. Best wishes from the Bigbash40 group ☺

Perfectly ok cafe situated below main park & ride, local bus offers 10%discount, not sure who clientele aimed at, would not make a trip out of town , even for good views, menu straight forward and again perfectly nice but wouldn't see any reason to make a detour

Visited here on a very wet and windy lunchtime. We both enjoyed our sandwiches made with Turkish bread and my husband thoroughly enjoyed one of the beers Knill by Mouth. Staff were friendly, we will certainly return.

A new cafe above the St Ives brewery with a excellent view over the harbour and a good outside decking area. Very clean and airy with a nice choice of coffee, cakes and the beer brewed below the cafe. Next to Trenwith Car Park and often surprisingly peaceful

This is a great little Café with a good selection of snacks, light meals and cream teas, all freshly prepared. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and there is a great view over St Ives Harbour. The café is also licensed, selling hand crafted real ales, and is connected to the St Ives Brewery.

We stopped here for a coffee on our way down the path in to town and the coffee was really good. We then stopped on our way back to the car and had a piece each of the most wonderful carrot cake with another delicious coffee. A gem of a place and from what we saw of the food being brought out to other diners it looked good for lunch too

Visited to speak to the brewer and owner. Very welcoming! Wonderful views over St Ives. Good range of sandwiches etc and sell gluten free cake!!! Very clean, uncluttered and good toilets. A visit just for the views is recommended.

Having read the reviews on the Brewery Cafe on Tripadvisor my wife and I thought it was high time we paid it a visit when we were last in St. Ives at the end of October this year. We certainly weren't disappointed! Although the weather didn't encourage us to use the good sized terrace outside we chose a nice table inside by the window which had an excellent veiw of both the town and the sea. My wife chose a small bottle of Prosecco and I had a bottle of the excellent Rattler cider whilst our food order was a bacon sandwich each. I think you would struggle to get a better bacon sandwich anywhere! Best back bacon cooked to perfection and plenty of it in a decent sized bread bun. Everything about the place looked clean and inviting and afterwards we went down the stairs to look around the Brewery gift shop from where you can see the beer fermenting. The very affable chap behind the counter was only too pleased to pop through into the brewing area to pour me a sample of one of the beers they make and very nice it was too.
