Tasty Corner in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The Tasty Corner Cafe is the place to eat when you're after the kind of meal that your mum used to cook - good wholesome food that gives you that warm feeling of family and friends enjoying life, a place where you can be sure of a warm welcome and good old fashioned value for money. It's one establishment that has never let me down and I can thoroughly recommend it to you.

mystified how this place get good reviews, ordered crab sandwich , came on shop bought tasteless white sliced with couple of bits of cucumber and tomato on the side, no choice of bread £11, and awful cuppa , do yourself a favour and nip up the road to the Island cafe to see how it should be done ,

Popped in for some tea and cake this week. The homemade carrot cake was absolutely delicious. And we sat out in the sun to enjoy it too.

lovely traditional food, reasonably priced, would highly recommend, stopped for lunch, milkshake with icecream was lovely.

Stopped for a drink whilst visiting Looe. Served quickly and with a smile. Lovely coffee and the hot chocolate was great, so tasty.

Was in the area, fancied a hot drink and popped into here , or rather sat outside with our 2 dogs. The drinks were fine ,but the 2 cakes were really, really good. Coffee & walnut and a chocolate & peanut butter. We had 2 fat slices ,both lovely and moist and incredibly tasty . Will happily come again

I genuinely thought I was seeing things when I saw they were charging £11.45 for a jacket potato. You wouldn't even pay that much in central London! I asked the owner if this was for real and he told me I should go elsewhere if I didn't like it. He was beyond rude. I'd suggest any of the places opposite or the pub round the corner. I appreciate everyone's got to make a living but this is daylight robbery.

Although we are local, we’ve never been here for breakfast, no particular reason, we just haven’t. It was lovely. Friendly staff, freshly cooked food, hot coffee, lovely and clean, what more do you want. Thank you, we’ll be back!

'Jake's' as the locals call The Tasty Corner, is always friendly and offers great café food. They do a fab pancake stack with maple syrup and bacon.

We love this cafe. We have been visiting Looe for a number of years and this cafe is consistently good. We often have brunch, we can fully recommend the sausage on toast, pancakes with bacon and maple syrup, scrambled eggs and even the Sunday roast. The staff are all really lovely, professional yet friendly.

We stopped off here for drinks and snacks, while in Looe. Friendly service, good drinks and snacks. Well worth a visit.

Don't bother horrendous meals. £12 for fish, oven chips and a slice of butted bread. Should have gone to chippy across otherside of Port. Gutted we wasted time and money on this place. Full of locals, so I thought it would have been o.k. Boy, I was wrong.

Inferior quality, exhorbitant prices. Having read many positive reviews of Tasty Corner we decided to give it a go. Bad mistake!! We ordered cheese on toast and coffee for two. The toast was served on thin poor quality sliced bread and covered with cheese totally lacking in taste and flavour. Coffee was weak and flavourless. Fortunately this visit took place in the early part of our holiday so obviously we had no need to re-visit Tasty Corner. There are so many other places in Looe(particularly East Looe ) which do things well and offer quality at a fair price. It is worth seeking them out. £16.60 for our snack was outrageously expensive. For comparative purposes we enjoyed a full Cornish Cream Tea for 2 for the princely sum of £9.10. Quality and price personified!!

What a treat. Lovely welcoming staff. Extremely dog friendly, I waited outside whilst my wife checked and they couldn't have been more enthusiastic in welcoming us and our pup. We had an all day breakfast and a full English both with tea. I don't think I've had a better cooked breakfast out. The bacon was done perfectly and was quite obviously not some cheap stuff as it was very thick. The eggs were really really fresh with bright orange yellow yolks. All in all a cafe well worth visiting and fantastic value for money

Had full English breakfast here for the last 4 mornings. Everything came out piping hot, cooked and presented correctly. They have got the cooking of the fried bread to perfection, hot, crisp and not greasy.

So comfortable, with friendly staff and locals. Simply good food. Best crab sandwiches. Choice of out or inside tables weather permitting. On bus routes or short walk from train. Handy for walks to Hannafore or to just to sit on the harbour.

Came down for the weekend to visit some friends, stopped in here after watching the duck race and ordered a cream tea. The scones were a good size, but didn't have enough jam or clotted cream served with them and the scones tasted of salt. Only had plain, which was a big disappointment and the person who served me, wasn't shy at being rude about it either. Not impressed!

Been twice in two days and now booked for Sunday Lunch. We had cake which was homemade and beatiful and extremely good value lunch bites. Busy with local trade - says it all! Recommended

The cafe looked very welcoming so popped in for lunch! Was not disappointed,delicious pasty meal,good menu,generous portions all served by very friendly staff,also do good range of cakes and scones,will be back,thankyou!

Popped in first thing Saturday 3rd after arriving in looe.. Boss breakfast for the wife and me, two full breakfast two brews absolutely beautiful breaky highly recommended 👍

Lost all discipline when walking near Tasty corner, the all day breakfast kept on calling me in 😁 Great little cafe well worth a visit.

We were back in Looe for a boat trip across to Looe island, so what better way to start the day that with one of Jake's breakfasts. We couldn't resist coming back the next morning for more, and I'm sure we'll be back again.

We had a beautiful cream tea at this place. Two big scones, loads of jam and loads of clotted cream. Some cream teas (even in Cornwall) can be a little disappointing, but not this one. The tea was in a decent sized pot with additional...

In the midst of a damp Sunday, we enjoyed a very tasty Roast Beef, with excellent service and a very filling dessert.

Had a quick lunch here and it was lovely. Chips were hot, fresh and tasty, soup was also good and homely. Staff were nice and we were able to have alcoholic drinks .

We stayed in Looe for a week and visited most of the cafes and definitely put this one bottom of the list. I know business is about making money but never is that more apparent than a visit here. All the ingredients were the cheapest...

Lovely little Corner Cafe/Restaurant with very cheerful and helpful staff BUT Oh Dear, the owner - he must be the most miserable looking man we have ever encountered. We visited here 3 times (more for convenience) during our stay and it wasn't him who drew...

Made to feel very welcome and fast efficient service. Food was okay but nothing to write home about as you might say, it does not stand out from the rest but is adequate for breakfast.

Had breakfast here before the long drive home and wasn't disappointed. Very tasty food and good value for money. Friendly staff too

Returned to the Tasty Corner for another fine quality average English breakfast, nothing stunning, but just what you need.

Enjoyed our last day here in Looe by having breakfast here. Very tasty pancakes and a good pot of tea. Very friendly polite staff. Will be back.

This was our second consecutive year in Looe and used this cafe nearly everyday, as we did last year. Fantastic, friendly service and consistently lovely food and drinks at reasonable prices. Can't ask for more.

Well what can we say the food is lovely it's the second time we've been back to Looe and back for the from breakfast to home cooked Sunday lunch the lamb was tender and yummy , friendly and helpful staff and always a pleasure and...

Read some good reviews on TripAdvisor, however our experience was not positive. The staff were very pleasant and we were told that there would be a wait for food - we accepted this. However when the two breakfasts arrived, they really weren't worth the wait both in terms of quality and quantity. The meat sausages were tiny and had no taste. Both breakfasts included baked beans, but there were literately 10 beans per serving. Rating for food, not marked down for the wait as we were told in advance.

I asked for a milkshake with ice cream but he gave me one in a small coffee cup without ice cream honestly

From 18th May to 9th July I backpacked the 1000km South West Coast Path as a fund raiser for Cancer Research UK. (google alan peace cancer news to see a short video about it.) On route I visited a lot of coffee shops many of which left a lot to be desired! There were only four that I would want o go back to and one of them was the Tasty Corner. It was so good that even though I was sitting outside, I made a point of going inside to tell the girls there what I thought. 10/10 on all counts. Well done!

We enjoyed lunch here recently. The menu had lots of choices and we finished our meal off with a slice of the lime and coconut cake - absolutely delicious. Service was very good and we would definitely come here again.

Jake and his staff are friendly and welcoming whether you're a Looe local or a visitor. Good-quality, filling and reasonably priced breakfast through to lunch (with puddings!) or a selection of light-bites, as well as all the expected types of drinks. A 'proper British caf'.

The breakfast is brilliant. The service always seems to come with a smile. If there is a café in this area to recommend, this is it.

Excellent breakfast, great service and good coffee! Nice to know that there is somewhere to get a good fry-up as well. Pancakes are very tasty too!

This place is well worth a visit.We had prawn ,tuna and cheese and pickle sandwiches chocolate cake and a milk shake 4coffees a soft drink.Very reasonable at £34.excellent service and very friendly.

A great little friendly cafe on West Looe that does real food, like delicious bacon sandwiches and all day breakfasts and main meals. Good service with outside seating.

Tortuous drive into Looe because of road closure - managed to park harbourside in West Looe - spotted Tasty Corner about 100 yards away - wanted morning cuppa and something to eat - warmly welcomed - nice staff - coffee / tea and rock buns! Haven't had a rock bun for years - delicious. This is a simple well presented comfort food cafe. We'll happily go back if we return to Looe.

Great for cooked breakfast, including vegetarian. Attentive service indoors or out. Old fashioned, decent food.

Corner café with a good view of the river from a window table. Perfectly acceptable crab sandwiches but nothing exceptional. All white meat but a mix with brown enhances flavour. Good home made rockcakes like mother makes.

We walked around the harbour to come here as as adverted as open until 5pm. Being only 3:30 we were really surprised for the young man to say they were closed whilst at the coffee machine preparing hot drinks, with tables housing customers part way through their drinks, food etc. I can only assume the owners/managers were away, why else would our custom be refused and advertise as open? A shame we wanted to support the independent. People wonder why the likes of Costa is so successful

Just had breakfast here and it was great . My hubby had a full English I had pancakes with maple syrup & bacon all washed down with tea and a cappachino. It was excellent cooked to perfection and fab-u-lous service too. We will definitely be returning.

My wife & I had Sunday breakfast. I went for All day breakfast she had vegetarian option.Both breakfasts where presented well & tasted great.Set us both up for the day. COVID-19 was well covered.Service was excellent & options to sit inside or out by the harbour.Only let down was the owner being a Everton fan . Up The Reds . Defo be back during our week stay .

Pleasant stop on Loo Quayside with this very friendly café behind us. Simple menu all cooked really well and to our taste. Would go again.

We love this place and visit most days when we are down in looe, they have taken Covid precautions and have the best socially distance tables from anywhere we have visited in looe! Staff always friendly and very helpful , whilst waiting to go in the other day I witnessed a member of staff ask the family in front of us to sanitise their hands and felt very well with the situation when the family refused! Said family where not invited in and the staff taking these things seriously really put us at ease. Cakes are Devine and coffee superb!

Had breakfast there today it was delicious the staff friendly restaurant clean would go again it was on the Main Street and a very nice variety of food it melted in your mouth all fresh

This cafe is on the quiet side of Looe and so is much more pleasant than many others. You can eat in or outside right at the river mouth. Lovely scenic views with a good range of foods served by friendly staff. It is also next to the bus stop so ideal for a cuppa if unsure of bus times!

Supposed to get table service, but noticed that locals went to the counter & jumped the queue of people already sitting down & waiting to be served. Staff were not welcoming & all looked thoroughly miserable! Ordered 2 Lattes & what was served appeared to be a plain milky coffee.Won’t be going back.

We went for a Sunday Lunch super hot well presented beef good what more could we ask for Thank you Jake and staff we will see you again Sue and Colin Duncan

Great choice of breakfast and flexibility with menu which is essntial for our family! This cafe is nicely positioned right on the water's edge with parking right outside. Most importantly for us at the moment, they had decent COVID procedures in place and we felt comfortable eating there. The food was good and very reasonable. Definitely recommended.

The food was very basic . The owner / manager was grumpy and made no effort to be polite or interact . Won’t be visiting again

We are on holiday in Looe and have eaten here nearly every day as the food is amazing, hot and fresh and nicely presented and the staff are pleasant and accommodating , especially the young girl, Izzy, who is very sweet and helpful. Covid measures in place and the cafe is spotlessly clean and all tables and chairs cleaned thoroughly after every customer leaves. Great place, overlooking the harbour, great food and great staff. Thank you. Will definitely be back next time.

The food was very nice 👍 the service and staff were very good and the overall experience a pleasant one 🙏

We had breakfast here during a recent short break to Looe. It was simply fantastic. Exceptionally clean, very efficient Covid procedures in place. Staff were very welcoming, polite and friendly. Coffee amazing (and I am fussy about coffee!) The selection of home-made cakes looked amazing but I didn’t get around to them this time... there’s always next time can’t wait to visit again. Thank you

Had a fantastic breakfast and loved the ambiance of the place. Staff were great and the perfectly clean windows meant i could really take in the view. Would definitely visit this place every week.

We have been visiting Looe for years and always look forward to a visit to Tasty Corner. The owner and staff are always friendly and accommodating and our dog is welcome inside and outside. He especially likes the fresh doggy water after his long walk! Located in a popular harbour setting with lovely home cooked food and cakes. Tasty Corner is a friendly cafe atmosphere for both locals and visitors. We will come again soon!

Absolutely disgusting took our dog in and because she barked at another dog which barked back,we was told to basically leave,real reason is because our dog was a German shepherd and we were new customers,very rude,first time in Looe not a good impression.At the end of the day if it weren't for tourists visiting each year then you would not get as much custom.So as for dog friendly I don't think it is,more of if you're a local with a small or quite dog then your welcome.

This little gem is a great place to eat, facing Looe harbour.I had full English breakfast which is available all day, hubby had pancakes, bacon and maple syrup. All tasted delicious and was freshly made.We also called later in the day, after a walk and had knickerbocker glory, hubby had apple pie with clotted cream. Again, delicious.Good Covid 19 safety measures in place.Clean and tidy premises.Friendly staff.Definitely recommend.

We ate here everyday of our stay in Looe for either breakfast of lunch. Always excellent, friendly service and good quality, tasty food and drinks.

We love going here. Where just for a coffee in the sun or a full English. The food and service is always spot on and the staff and the owner are lovely. We've always been made to feel welcome.

Tasty Corner is in West Looe on the Quayside right next to the river ferry. Great little spot to stop and have a coffee, breakfast, lunch, a cream tea or even a beer. Jake and his team are working hard to ensure everything is Covid secure and have introduced protocols to keep you safe. We love sitting across the road by the ferry and watching the world go by with a coffee or afternoon tea. Great little cafe in a prime spot

when we arrived to the cafe, no body was sitting outside so we decided to sit as there was enough place for us as we were 3 adults and 3 kids. after few minutes two men come and sit on the table next to us, then my one year old son start to cry as he was hungry and we want to order food to him, and my husband was standing up to let my son see the sea, then one of the men who was sitting next to us tried to posh my husband and said “fuc..ing kids” we explained what happened to the manager but he said he will not believe us as the man who is sitting next to us was one of his regulars. we told him we are not lying but he didn’t say anything and was prejudiced. very shame to see people treating us like that.

Had a great breakfast here. Staff were polite and on the ball. Covid Safe. Tables were bacterial wiped before we sat down and staff wore visors. I would recommend.

Sunday lunch is generally great at the Tasty Corner but this week was the Christmas lunch and it was great. Turkey and all the trimmings - veggie option available. Jake and his son, James, looked splendid in their Christmas suits and matching ties and all the staff entered in to the spirit of the day.

Excellent, consistent cafe food, very much of the home cooked style. Pleasent, efficiant Staff with a quick service. I would say, without a shadow of a doubt that this Caf. Serves the Best Value for Money food in Looe! I will certainly be eating here on my next visit to Looe.

We visited Tasty Corner for lunch with our grandson and brother in law. As always we had a good meal and our grandson was impressed with the lasagne which i recommended as i always have lasagne when i visit. My husband had the gammon and brother in law had the breakfast.All our meals were first class and the staff are always polite. We look forward to our next visit and will definitely go to Tasty Corner for lunch.

on a very wet and windy day i cowered from rain and had excellent cream tea, clean fresh place was great.and staff were very good

Went in to use the internet, do some work and have some food. Lovely local cafe. Nice staff and lovely cakes. The bread for sandwiches is lovely and fresh.

visit jakes cafe frequently,it's a great little cafe on harbourside,where you can sit out in summer and watch the ferryboats going back and fore cross harbour.good food,I can recommend the all day breafast also sunday roast and being licenced a glass of wine with it.a great place to sit with an ice cream or a cornish cream tea and watch the boats go up and down .try the looe bay crab sandwiches,their delicious being locals we use jakes regularly throughout the year but especially when sun shines it's a great place to sit and watch the world go by.

Called in for a cup of coffee and some toast before we started a coastal walk. Greeted by a gentleman when we walked in and asked what drink we would like. We ordered two lattes but they were more like milky coffees from days gone by. We had some toast and jam ( some pieces not really cooked.) It cost just over £8 which we thought was really expensive

Very surprised to be able to park by the harbour in August and £2 for 2 hours. This cafe right opposite and ordered crab sandwiches and peroni beer and sat overlooking the harbour. All very nice and freshly prepared, and we were even asked if we wanted white or brown crab meat. Recommended.

This is a lovely cafe in Looe beside the harbour and has beautiful views.The food is always cooked to order and the menu has a great choice for different diets .this is the place to go just for cake and coffee or a cup of tea or lunch with family or to meet up with friends .there is outdoor seating to .fully recommend this lovely place.

Popped in out of the rain and found a little gem. Scones were so light & crumbly; we polished them off in record time! Tea was just as I like it - nice & strong!! Selection of homemade cakes looked amazing. Friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Good food in a really lovely location. Staff very friendly and helpful. Go there and see for yourself!

Great little cafe. I had tea with scones, cream and jam. The nicest scone I’ve ever had and it was warm and tasty. Great customer service. Would recommend.

We visited here Thursday lunchtime for a bite to eat before heading home. We ordered Chicken Steak Burger and Cheese Burger with Chips and Coleslaw. The food was served in a timely manner and most importantly, was hot on arrival. Really enjoyed our quick lunch meal!

The table were too close for comfort, in being the man behind us was coughing and blowing his nose, whilst we were trying to eat. Took them forever to bring our food! The English Breakfast was very dry and very bland! We had the Cream Tea which was very filling, as it was too rich and not enjoyable. Not recommended.

We were staying up the road so we went for breakfast every day, the food was really nice, great variety on the menu for breakfast lunch, snacks and tea. Shame it shuts so early as would have had all our meals there, could not fault, great little place offering super food and service.

Needed a snack before a long journey and dropped in for something on toast... we never eat beans on toast nowadays do we? It arrived... just over a fiver for that and a seeming bottomless cup of tea. Forget the outside just enjoy the food@

Food excellent and well presented Relaxing atmosphere Cafe Fayre Lovely Cornish Cream Tea and Scones Friendly

Visited this location and found this wonderful place to have a brilliant cream tea. The staff were most helpful and the cream tea should not be missed. Highly recommend to all.

Lovely meal Clean surroundings .Friendly staff Definitely will go again The pancakes with bacon and maple syrup were fantastic

We called in for a coffee and ended up with cake as well. The coffee and cake were great. The cafe was quite busy with locals but everyone was very friendly.

Homely friendly place to eat lots of locals also enjoying chats with staff , fish and chips really nice also the veggie allday breakfast freshly prepared well worth a visit ...

I visit looe every month to see family and I always make sure I find the time to visit this gem on the west side of looe. Always great food and wonderful cakes , coffee the best around by far! It’s the service that make this place really stand out , staff all very friendly even when very busy and so attentive to holiday makers and locals alike.

Hubby and I both had the big breakfast. Great portion size and not greasy at all. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere. Cakes looked lovely too...but was too full to sample! Will definitely visit again.

Popped in around 3.30pm on Good Friday with my wife and 14 year old son who has autism. The staff were all very friendly and the cafe was spotless. We had already eaten so just went in for drinks but I did look at the menu for future reference and we will be back

Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Good, honest-to-goodness cafe food, fab homemade cakes and a friendly smile to welcome you.

Stumbled on this place whilst looking for a coffee before walking to Polperro. Good coffee and great brownies. Very reasonably priced, too!

We had been for a long walk around Looe and were very grateful for the welcome break at the Corner Café.We only had a snack and drinks but were treated very well.We sat outside with the dog but were told we were welcome to bring her in.

We always call in here when we visit Looe. The bacon was tasty and done to perfection. Drinks brought quickly and plates removed as soon as we'd finished. Service quick and friendly. Nice to sit outside too.

We’d walked a three mile coastal walk and were delighted to find a table at this little gem! My husband had the all day breakfast which was excellent; I had a lovely baked potato and our son really enjoyed the steak pie. Really reasonable riced too, very good value for money. Would definitely recommend and will return there again when in Looe. Oh, and staff really nice too!

Our local 'caf' in West Looe never lets us down. Lovely breakfast with one old friend and frequent visitor and one friend new to Looe.

We arrived late on Sunday and despite being almost closing time we were welcomed and given a good choice of snacks. Service was very friendly and the location is good, being in West Looe it is more relaxed. Highly recommended and we will go back again soon.

Myself and fiance popped in for breakfast as we were waiting for a workman to call. We have used the tasty corner for years and highly recommend it . Food divine setting perfect and very friendly welcome so always going to return . Cleanliness 5☆ and everything else the same keep up the great work .
