The Hub Portreath in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I had the meanest portion of scrambled egg on toast I have ever had !The portion of mushrooms I paid extra for were tiny bits of mushroom stalk cut up and would have fitted on a soup spoon .For over £8 this was a joke

We often grab a coffee whilst heading to the beach for a dog walk; and we’ve been meaning to try out the food. I was gutted to bring my friend and to be so disappointed in a time where eating out is a treat. I ordered American pancakes - after 25 minutes was told there were no blueberries as ordered, but was offered strawberries instead which I was ok with. What I got was two tiny pancakes, with ONE strawberry and 4 slices of banana. My friend had avo on toast and got one slice of cheap thin bread. Not at all what I had seen advertised on instagram and not value for money at all. The pro’s of this place are: -Lovely setting/ interior design and outside space - very dog friendly - nice coffee and cakes to take away - nice to see several veggie options Sadly, I doubt I will bother with food here again, which with limited places to eat in the area (especially out of season) is a shame.

Quick to take Oder. Food arrived promptly however no drinks arrived until about 10 minutes after we’d finished our food Then it was too hot to drink, mug of tea must be a pint mug, huge and too much to drink. People ordering take out drinks seem to get served quicker. Disappointing, it was busy but no excuse waiting nearly half hour for drinks. Shame! We’re local and probably won’t be back.

2nd visit this week. Lovely comfortable atmosphere. Love the decor and dried flower table decorations. Great choice menu. Very attentive and friendly staff both visits. Food quality is excellent and presented beautifully. Obvious great care taken with every order. Didn't get chance for cakes, but they look delicious. Love the Victoria sponge as a tray bake .

Amazing place for a nice meal with a great view and great prices. Staff have always been lovely every time we’ve visited. The new menu is smashing, we love the açai bowls :)

We have been for breakfast and lunch and thought the quality of the food the way it was presented was of high class the staff are all friendly and smile and make sure your ok will definitely be returning, as per some comments it’s not the cheapest but then it has the quality of better food, thanks to all the staff

Ordered crab sandwich, it was very poor value . Boring bread and far too much mayonnaise, couldn’t taste crab at all .Obviously not reliant on return business.

First visit & won’t be returning. Initial impressions of menu were ok although a bit pricey but unfortunately once again it’s a coastal cafe with a captive audience who aren’t concerned about the quality of the food they’re serving. Ordered a cheese & chutney sandwich which should have been on granary bread but instead was on small slices of cheap dry sliced white bread. The cheese was tasteless & sparse but the chutney tasted good. Served with a few crisps a bit of uninspiring salad & slaw! Well chunky red cabbage in a bit of mayo! Then there’s the crispy wedges, £6 for 7 wedges & a spoonful of chilli sauce, what a disgrace. The tuna melt was also underwhelming with minimal filling. I was actually quite shocked at how poor this all was to be honest & definitely don’t recommend you stop here!

We’ve been for breakfast 4-5 times now since it opened and the service and food are definitely improved since the first visit when hubby had a blackened frisbee for an omelette! It’s much better, coffee is great but one thing that puzzles is that the chef insists on serving scrambled eggs on toast with butter on the side! How’s that work then?! Lol

An excellent choice to eat in Portreath. We eat there a few times during our stay in Portreath and every time was perfect. If you’re really brave try the double waffle for desert . Very dog friendly too 👍

After waiting 47mins for a crab sandwich, I cancelled my order as I couldn't wait any longer. After bimbling about on the card machine, the lady told me I would be refunded in 7days. It took her 10mins to tell me this, as at first, they couldn't find my order and then said someone else took it, then another one said that the order hadn't gone through to the kitchen. It wasn't even busy. They made me feel like I was trying to get a free sandwich and lying about my order. I was so angry but kept being polite. Anyway..... 2weeks later I still haven't been refunded. Where's my £13????

After finding Tehidy woods cafe "closed indefinitely" on a rainy day, we headed for Portreath. The first place we saw was probably fine but then we saw "Pod" just across the road and decided give it a try. Good decision. Staff were friendly, menu choices were good, and prices pretty much in line with what we are now getting used to after rampant inflation making everything more expensive. Food was nicely presented, tasty and good-sized portions. Our two grandchildren (8 & 10) found plenty of things to choose from and thoroughly enjoyed their meals and milk shakes, as did we. We'll certainly visit again after our next Tehidy woods walk as it's only a few minutes away by car.

We are regulars couple times a week for coffee and two or three times a month for food we love it food great prices right staff great what’s not to like! Always accommodating espionage on days when we bring mum in the wheelchair.

This is an excellent beach side cafe. The menu is very extensive and what I got, my family got and what I saw coming out looked excellent. All the dishes we order were of excellent quality. Whilst visiting the beach, we would use for coffee and ice cream and again, very high standard. If the weather is good, sit outside, if you can. Very relaxed atmosphere. The staff were very helpful and polite as well. Highly Recommended!!

This place was amazing!! They were so accommodating, putting tables together and splitting sundaes into two glasses so my kids could share. Food and coffee were delicious and staff were so friendly. A highlight of our holiday!

Lovely ice cream, great service and friendly staff. The owner was keen to ensure all customers were happy before leaving.

Lovely little Cafe. Lovely food and service. Great location next to the beach for a spot of lunch.

Location lovely, food disappointing. Few gluten free option. Cooked English breakfast underwhelming & overpriced. Told ran out of hash browns but told me after I'd paid. Was refunded, though soft drinks expensive.

This dog friendly cafe is fabulous! Lovely friendly and welcoming staff and it just has a great atmosphere. The food was tasty and served quickly - cakes are to die for! Highly recommend 😁

Lovely little cafe to visit with your furry friends! The Special Hot Chocolate is the BEST we’ve EVER tasted! Definitely worth a visit 5*

Had a vegan fish finger sandwich and it was delicious! I popped the salad that was on the side in the sandwich and it made it even better. Such a lovely place with accommodating staff especially the new manager Kelly. The staff were great and...

Best lunch we have had in Cornwall Sat outside gorgeous venue clean, excellent service with a smile Easy to order...great selection of food and drink Well presented, tasted marvellous..even got a box to put pizza in for eating later Great service from yhecstaff inside too

Crab sandwich dry bread not buttered sparse crab, panini sloppy content with two cans £25 seriously overpriced, complained comment was ,really, no other response. Local regular customer but not again.

Was very disappointed at being charged £4.50 for a plain scone and not told that I could have a cream tea which was one scone with jam an cream and a tea for £4.50!! Because I asked for a coffee I was charged £9 which...

The place is just so dreadfully dirty, the skirting boards are all filthy, the tables and floors grubby and then the toilet...Oh my gosh, the tiles below the hand drier are stained brown (never a good look in a bathroom!) and filthy, this brown filth...

We visited in December just before Christmas. We had a very helpful and friendly waitress. One of our party is Coeliac and was able to have gluten free food here. The food was lovely and we will definitely come again.

Fab lunch, brilliant selection. Wonderful crab sandwiches and huge pizza. Very tasty. Friendly and welcoming. Dog friendly. Nice decor and atmosphere.

Full breakfast sadly very poor value for money. Everything out of tin/microwave. Cheap sausages. Dried out eggs, tinned mushrooms, tasteless tomatoes. Definitely would not recommend at £8.75 we ith a mug in of my tea.

Friendly welcoming service, really nice food we really enjoyed when we came off the beach for a lunchtime snack. We would recommend

Poor all day breakfast served lukewarm Sausage tasteless, toast not toasted best thing was egg which was warm and large mug of tea Staff no customer service Just as well I was starving

Really nice place, very friendly and polite team. Been several times this week, really good food each time, also very reasonably priced. Will head back before we leave!

A bit confused when first went in as there was stickers on the tables for qr code band no menus. Not having an iPhone etc or mean of a code wasn't sure what to do. We then ordered an egg bacon band sausage cob. I...

Waited ages for coffees as the waitress said there was a backlog. Had a bacon cob which was very dry as there was no butter on it. Lad in the kitchen kept checking his phone (I could see through the serving hatch)

Visited here on the last day of our trip to Portreath before our long trip home. We were not disappointed great full English and a really nice latte. Well worth a visit

Lovely cafe with very good food. As ownership has changed, they no longer have a bike hire section to do the coast-to-coast bike ride.

We called in for lunch and had a good meal. The staff were friendly and the place was clean and well laid out. However, although we expect to pay a little more for food and drinks on the coast we did feel that like MANY...

I come here regularly and the chai latte is excellent. This morning I decided to have breakfast, poached eggs on toast. They only do fried eggs! I don't eat fried food as many others dont. You have a bit of competition in a lovely beachside...

Excellent crab sandwiches - including one person’s made with gluten free rolls - plenty of food and assorted sides included plus a good cup of coffee. All served efficiently by friendly staff despite being busy. Pleasant and comfortable surroundings with option to eat in or...

Please provide more staff training. Really not a good experience. This maybe harsh but not knowing what was on what is a relatively simple menu then being told sometime later items were missing. Servicing ice cream with a fork and having to source a spoon...

We cycled here from Devoran as many do on the Bissoe Trail. The cyclists aim is always to stop halfway and get a drink and a bite. We sat outside on the lower decking behind the cafe. Lovely quiet spot and no breeze at all....

My children insisted. Both ended up in the bin. The ice cream was not Whippy but icy and tasteless. Not great especially when Cornwall is renowned for it lovely ice cream. We did find some though, just across the road at the Kelly’s ice cream...

We live locally, called in for breakfast and we were both surprised by the poor quality ingredients used for the egg, bacon and sausage roll (walls-type cheap pallid sausages, frazzled, overdone streaky bacon and overcooked egg) ciabbatta roll was nice. The eggs and avocado on...

Dropped in here today and sat outside. We ordered salad bowls and they were lovely, very generous with everything. The service was also excellent. All in all a great experience.

We have visited twice before and always found the food good value for money. Unfortunately on this visit which was at lunch time we had an extremely slow service with about 6 staff members on the waitress floor. There were only three tables full in...

We had a lovely lunch here, great service and lovely atmosphere right by the beach! Children’s sandwich with crisps for £2 was a plus for our little one too!

Came for a coffee and a quick bite to eat on Sunday despite the awful weather. The food was average, but the saving grace was our waitress Amelia. What a breath of fresh air she is - a real asset to your team. Would return...

Lovely cafe serving great food. Nicely cooked jacket potatoes and excellent panini. Individual pots of tea give three cups each. Friendly and helpful staff, tables sensibly distanced.

We were in dire need of a warm drink but were accompanied by 2 dogs. We saw 2 seating areas outside so whilst I went in to order my husband searched for the least windy spot. I mentioned we had dogs and were invited inside...

Well done to the 2 front of house staff today and those behind the scenes that we didn't see. Hospitality is finding staffing difficult in these strange Covid times but the staff here remained calm, friendly and efficient during a busy period in the cafe....

Absolutely excellent little cafe with very friendly service and one of the best all day breakfasts I have had. Every item was delicious. Coffee good too. We'd been hoping to find a pub for Sunday lunch but quite honestly this was a better choice!

Stopped here for a break on a walk. Good quality drinks, good area outside where there is plenty of seating as well as inside tables and chairs.

Popped in for some lunch after beach walk. Sunny day, table outside beside little stream. Menu outside offered crab sandwiches, but not available due to “out of season” ….weird! Menu inside was different, suggest outside one removed. Instead had panini fish finger butty which was...

We contacted the Hub and were advised that Breakfast was served until 11am. We asked if it was necessary to book a table but were told this wasn't a problem as they weren't that busy. We arrived at 10:50 (OK that is cutting it fine)...

Amazing cakes , friendly service with good turnaround and gorgeous coffee ! Great interior with interesting paintings and local crafts ..

Ordered food and drinks. Drinks served promptly but after 35 minutes and several other tables having been served. Went to the counter lad couldn't find our order, luckily I had asked for a receipt. Said he would go and find out so I went back...

Great food but holy xxxxxx a hell of a wait! I know places get busy at holidays but PLEASE don’t keep using staff shortages as an excuse- 40minute wait for coffee is apauling! Sort it out please, you obviously rely on holiday trAde and folk...

Told on Monday that they take walk in's on Tuesday so we didn't need to book Arrived on Tuesday and told we should have booked!!! What a joke, this restaurant/ bar can't even decide how to accept customers!!! No wonder that the take aways are...

Out walking my dog and I decided to stop for a take away hot chocolate. I get directed to a conservatory to order my drink. From being served to actually receiving my hot chocolate in my hands was a 12 minute wait! The guy in...

Lovely muffin and coffee. Nice atmosphere, wood burner in winter, dog friendly, lovely......parking a stones throw away...

Great food and drink here. We stopped to get out of the rain, coffee at first but ordered some paninis as well. Food was really good and well priced. Service was good and staff very friendly. Nice atmosphere to the cafe, modern, clean. Recommended

Staff were so attentive, smiley and chatty. Manager/owner was so lovely. He overheard it was my friends birthday and couldn't do more for us. Lovely food, great cake. Will be back.

Without asking, staff brought out dog treats and a bowl of water for our friends golden retriever. Food was excellent and everyone was very friendly to us.

Nice place with a very friendly welcome and service for our Sunday AM breakfast. We had the breakfast sandwich which was nice albeit the ciabatta bread was a little dry and would maybe have benefited from toasting before serving. However the warm welcome and lovely...

We have eaten here three times over the past month. The first time the crab sandwhich was a little sparse on crab meat. The last couple of times they have been really good. We ordered via the app and we waited a lot less than...

What a delightful spot. Sat on the deck by the stream. Served very efficiently by polite smiling young staff. My Brie, bacon & cranberry panini was delicious but my husbands nachos were outstanding. Very generous amounts of toppings - none of those dry nachos you...

Why are you serving drinks with plastic straws? Its 4rth of June and your staffs excuse was "we ran out of non plastic ones so we are being a bit naughty." Please educate yourself about the damage they do to the environment and to wildlife,...

Fab piece of heaven within earshot of the waves at Portreath!!! We landed in Portreath having left Dorset at 0530 on the Bank Holiday weekend . The Hub became our oasis for scrummy panini's ( the brie and cranberry oozed with flavour and was my...

I was so excited based on the reviews for a cake, food and drink and it’s probably just because of when we got here. But there were like loads of staff running around very lost. The girl on the coffee machine was ace telling them...

Lovely outside seating area by a little stream, lovely smoothies and coffee with lots of gluten free options. Friendly service.

On the day I visited it was being run by a rather disorganised group of youngsters. The place needed an adult to "take control" and "manage". I waited a very long time for just a take away flat white.

Hubby and I stopped off for a coffee and a cookie late morning and really enjoyed both so much we came back later for lunch. We sat by the stream and both had the crab sandwich with salad and crisps. The lady very kindly asked...

Really lovely friendly helpful staff. Great choice of food for lunch. Had soup, panini, jacket potato’s. All cooked well and tasted great. Definitely recommended.

Whilst on holiday, we decided to have breakfast here on our last day, as we had to vacate our accommodation by 9.00. Staff were lovely and the food was really scrumptious. Our boys, aged 13 and 11, had beans on toast and I went for...

Three of us had lunch at The Hub today (Thurs 15 Oct 2020) and it was great. My tuna salad in a box was delicious (a huge portion, I took half home) as was my hubby's halloumi salad. Our friend had a bacon roll, it...

Went in today tues 6th Oct after reading reviews on here. It like up to expectations. Nice staff very clean. We had a couple of sandwiches and all had very yummy cakes. Lemon polenta cake 🍰 Guinness chocolate cake 🍰 Chocolate brownie Passion fruit cheesecake...

We cycled here from Falmouth on the Coast to Coast path and were ready for a decent coffee and lunch. We were not dissappointed! Sensible and understandable Covid precuations, good distancing all meant we could enjoy our lunch in safety.The ride back went much quicker!

Just stopped for a coffee here . Food looked nice. Puppy was welcome .It felt warm and friendly.nice sofas for relaxing with friends obviously social distancing.

Supposedly they have dog water bowls and treats - they don't.The service was not very good at all, and the young girls working in there are easily confused. Went there today on recommendation as it is fairly local, and might go back. Might. The food was better than the service for sure.

We havent eaten here (yet) but we are lucky enough to be local and its a weekly visit for latte ans cake. Good service and covid friendly with good practice.

We enjoyed a breakfast here prior to leaving for home after our local holiday. The food is superb, and ambience wonderful, along with jolly staff. We wish you all the best in your venture as places as good as yours are few and far between. I wish I didn’t live 300 miles away as I’d be a regular customer.10/10 to the team gold stars all the way....

Been here several times over last couple of years, we love it and becoming our fav cafe/ eatery in Cornwall.Alwats fresh tasty food, coffee is really good.Crab sandwich is lovely please don't change it. White crab meat packed into lovely soft fresh bread Going back this week again as saw the ploughman's today oh my.....

Stopped here today for a drink. Had 2 lovely Chai lattes which were very tasty. Also had a sausage roll that wS very good. Plenty of hand sanitizer and one way system. Drinks and sausage roll ready for collection very quickly. Friendly helpful staff and felt very safe here.

Last year I enjoyed a cream tea here so I thought that I would visit again this year. I decided just to have a scone and butter instead of a cream tea. I was charged £3.50 for the scone. I will not be returning

From the outside, this cafe doesn’t look much, but the food and interior is lovely! We had fish finger sandwiches and pizzas, and they were all so tasty! The milkshakes are amazing also. Would highly recommend!

We stayed in Portreath and visited the Hub every day for coffee, cake and sometimes lunch. We also enjoyed Katie’s Cornish hot pot when we arrived and were sad it got cancelled before we left due to the weather but that is no fault of the Hub. Highly recommended.

Simply perfect tuna and cheese melt (Ordered without red onion for me) and Fab nachos for the beach. Another day sampled a gorgeous hot choc on the terrace complete with cream and flake and served at a decent temperature unlike most. Great spot. Covid system in place so all good. A bit slow on service but otherwise great.

Came here for lunch on a rainy afternoon midweek. our table was cleaned well and there was hand sanitiser on each individual table which was a nice touch! everything was single use so there was no fear of cross contamination! we ordered 3 sandwiches, a coffee, 2 teas and a cream tea. the food came quickly and tasted really fresh. amazing quality for the price you are paying!

Excellent crab sandwich with a glass of wine and lovely setting. Clean and safe. Nice gift shop attached.

Family visit - kids loved epic shakes. Adults loved the cakes. Very good service too. Well organised for distancing.

Had take away Pizza from the Hub. A chicken, pepperoni and sausage meat mix that really worked well. Crisp and tasty. Lots of seating and just opposite the beach for a quick take away.

Walked into Portreath and popped in for a coffee. But the cakes were so tempting we had to have a muffin each to go with our cuppa. The chocolate orange one was so delicious and gluten free so added bonus . Our dog was made very welcome too with a bowl of water and a treat. We will be back again next time we visit.

Just love The Hub ! !Coffee great, cakes great !Breakfasts and lunch great too !!I am local and any excuse to drive that way and stop for coffee etc and I’m there.Staff are always so friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. It has recently changed hands but everything is as good as ever.Don’t miss a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the menu The HUB is very close to Portreath Beach and car park.

Popped into The Hub for a light lunch & coffee. The staff were so friendly, food was superb and views stunning, highly recommended. 👌🏽

Superb refurbishment of premises. Excellent coffee. Wonderful stock of St Eval candles and hand lotions. Amazing scents. I wish the new owners all the best in their new venture.

Great place for a light bite lovely sour dough sandwich served with a good portion of filler dig friendly

Great cafe (!) except staff members gossip about customers after they have left. Staff only told customer that cafe was closing in a few mins (3:00 although USUALLY 4:00) after they came to the counter after coming in and sitting down for at least 5 minutes prior. Customer unhappy that they didn’t say anything before to which the staff member was adamant that the closing time was on all of the signs. Staff then complained to the others about what the customer had said as soon as they had left. Staff member was not even correct at all as on the biggest sign it did indeed say 4:00. A brilliant Café but unfortunate to know that staff may talk about you behind your back - not even waiting until ALL customers have left. Shame that this is not the first review on this kind so steps have obviously not been taken.

Tasty coffee, great log burner and good vibes. The food is very well put together with sandwiches served with a delicious mixed salad (not always the case Cornish cafes). Well priced too! Win win. Thanks.

Amazing breakfast next to the log fire after a beach walk. Friendly and welcoming staff and a relaxing atmosphere. 10/10

Popped into the Hub Portreath today for a quick coffee. Unfortunately, nobody greeted me at the counter and I had to wait a rather lengthy time to be served. Coffee was fine, however all I could hear was two older female staff members talking negatively about other members of staff. Having a chit chat is perfectly fine, yet the manner in which they were talking was extremely unprofessional. I will not be returning to the Hub Portreath again.

We started off with breakfast, which was delicious. Smashed avocado, bacon and halloumi on sourdough bread was just what the doctor ordered!After breakfast we rented out two bikes and rode the coast to coast trail. It was so much fun and easy to do. It's a lengthy trail however it is pretty much flat throughout with many break stops on route.I'd really recommend the hub portreath food and bike rental. The staff are really friendly too and a happy to answer any questions.
