The Jam Jar in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

The pizzas here are off the scale delicious. The waiting staff are lovely and very helpful. My only criticism of the place is the incredibly slow service. Maybe another pizza oven would help? Waiting an hour for a pizza is not great! However would not hesitate in returning as the food is so good. Had breakfast there too. Great coffee but a plain croissant would be great - not a great selection.

Absolutely gorgeous bagels, served completely fresh and mega yummy. Great price for a breakfast or lunch. The coffee is also amazing

Fabulous little place with a cosy courtyard serving the usual coffee/tea/soft drinks/cake/ice cream. Late afternoon they do a pizza take-out between 4-5pm and you can eat in (outside) there. Their pizzas are authentic and amazing. I can thoroughly recommend The Jam Jar.

Wanted an easy light lunch to take back to our cottage. I had the French bagel and my husband and son had the Mexican. Both were delicious and we finished off with salted caramel brownie or polenta lemon cake. We enjoyed it so much that we went back again.

Best service, amazing coffee, always there and always with a smile and the cakes are next level. You have to try the brownie

Small takeaway cafe serving freshly baked cakes and pastries - love the almond croissant and tye very gooey chocolate brownie. Good g/f range. Coffee and Smoothies also superb topped off with some of the friendliest service around. Wouldnt be a trip to Newquay without something from here.

This is an amazing place to grab a drink, locals are willing to wait.... seems tourist aren't, but we'll with it, friendly staff and great takeaway

Fab coffee, wonderful staff always friendly. The almond croissants are the best, they also have a pizza restaurant in Crantock.

One of my favourite coffee shops in Newquay. The bagels are delicious and freshly made. You must also try the cakes! So much choice. Definitely on my recommendation list.

Set up for takeaway this is the best place in Newquay for a cappuccino, g/f cake, pastry or smoothie. Friendly service. Excellent value for money. Walk down the road and sit on one of the many benches overlooking the water and just chill. Brilliant.

The Jam Jar was a gem of a place to find. We had the best pizza with the best customer service! I would recommend a visit here highly. As a two family group, we had a fabulous evening and it will most certainly be on our agenda next summer when we visit.

The most wonderful visit to what was my favourite cafe in the village for years, where I was pleasantly surprised to discover the new “jam jar kitchen”. All staff were polite and attentive but in particular our waitress Maya who went above & beyond to make our cafe experience delightful. Toasties were excellent, as were the locally sourced ice creams - orange & mascarpone (who would of thought it!)

For all those who want a change from the high street coffee shops, Jam Jar is a real find. Making authentic coffee and cakes that are as equally imaginative created as fantastically tasty.

I have eaten at the jam jar just over a year ago and enjoyed my smoothie bowl and coffee very much. However we visited again last Sunday and had hoped to enjoy fresh baked goods for breakfast and unfortunately got the complete opposite. Our croissants, Cinnamon rolls and bagels were all very dry and certainly not fresh which was really disappointing as I had always had high expectations of this place and alwasy look forward to visiting. However this visit had put me off returning. Coffee was still great 👍🏽

I was in Cornwall with a group of friends for a holiday and one day we had breakfast here. I ate the Caribbean bagel...the most delicious bagel I've ever eaten in my life. I hope to come back soon. Thanks from Italy

Must have passed this place hundreds of times. After a recommendation, had the Italian bagel this morning, so good. Taz made amazing abstract latte art too. Great place

I was alone there I was looking coffee ☕️ then The desserts and the service here are very good and clean everything was very good.

I have only ever had cakes and a cuppa at this place,but they have always been enough for me to want to re visit a number of times. This place is a hidden gem but worth the extra few steps out of town. So glad...

Beautiful, cozy, trendy little spot with outdoor seating. Amazing bagels and cakes, great coffee. Lots of vegan and gluten free options. had the best brownie I have had in ages!

If you're visiting Newquay, don't miss out on this incredible gem of a place. The coffee is always great, service always with a smile and the baked produce amazing. Thanks for so many great coffees over the years!

Stopped here for a morning coffee having seen the reviews. Only a small little place but excellent service and excellent coffee

The breakfast menu is eclectic mostly gluten free with a hearty buckwheat porridge and bagel based sandwiches. The teas are a selection of Pukka teas which are of a reasonable quality. The coffee I am assure was also OK. Seating is tiny and mostly local...

We visited the jam jar today after seeing the coffee shop on Instagram and it did not disappoint. The bagels are delicious and coffee is amazing. The host is friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back. The banana, peanut bagel is delicious.

I was made to feel responsible for a staff members mistake, they had brought ‘my’ coffee out and popped it down on a bench with another mans food (whom wasn’t present) after waiting 20 minutes for my coffee I inquired as to where it was,...

We walked past this little coffee shop and I remembered I'd read some great reviews, So we popped in for a coffee before we started our journey home. The staff are friendly. The place is so cosy and compact. Most importantly the coffee was delicious,...

Went here with some friends. Gluten Free and diary free options available and the bagels were lovely!

One of Newquays little hidden gems . This place is always one of my highlights when visiting Newquay .

Absolutely love this little gem in Newquay . Great coffee , cakes and conversation on ever visit which was daily . Fab little coffee shop .

Home,freshly baked beautiful treats. Plus if it’s a nice day you can sit just outside,grab a blanket and enjoy your treat with a good mug of tea/coffee. Lovely little place 😀

Super cute little hidden coffee shop! Lovely menu, food is almost to beautiful to eat. Staff are friendly, menu is so affordable for homemade food. Place is small so make sure you get a table. Highly recommended and will return if ever holiday in Cornwall...

Amazing little find in Newquay 👍 The lady who worked there(I assume the owner) was friendly and welcoming...plus her brownie is out of this World! I could have sat there all day eating,drinking and people watching. I will definitely be returning!

Quaint and lovely little place, a little bit hidden from the high street. The coffee was the nicest I've had my whole two weeks in Cornwall, and I really enjoyed my akai bowl that I had for breakfast, would probably become part of the funiture...

Recommended by a local friend as we were popping into Newquay. Parked for free at Sainsbury's and walked over the road to find very good fresh coffee, ideal for clearing last nights cobwebs away! :-)

Very small but so so friendly. The staff are amazingly welcoming, the customers all chat. The food is perfect and an enormous choice of teas and coffees. Free parking opposite in Sainsbury’s Car park

We were recommended here by a outlet of young ladies and we were not disappointed. The young lady serving us was so lovely and our drinks were wonderful, especially a turmeric coffee (might sound odd but it was gorgeous) think I prefer it to a...

Found Jam jar online, felt I had to try it! Very friendly staff and yes it’s a small establishment but we were able to sit and eat both times and really enjoyed how friendly both staff and customers were. We had the Caribbean bagel (peanut...

This place has the menu of dreams! As a non dairy drinker it’s so exciting to find somewhere with a whole range of different milks plus totally creative wellbeing lattes. Highly recommend!

Jam jar appears to be a big hit with the locals as we had not managed to get in twice on Tuesday so decided to beat the queue and hit it up first thing on Wednesday. The team are lovely, the atmosphere is very laid...

Tiny little coffee shop across the road from Sainsbury’s. Outside seating on little wooden benches where you can enjoy a coffee and brownie while watching the world go by. Super friendly service.

I come here most mornings before work. Best coffee, best company, best cakes, best bagels and best giggles....what more could you want. On cold morning Jess even gives me this hot water bottle!! 💗

Tiny cafe near Sainsbury's in centre of Newquay. Awesome coffee - my wife had a cappuccino and I had a macchiato. Then there are the cakes and pastries- very very good. Lovely staff and just a great place to enjoy a quick coffee. We are...

A fun and friendly place with some fabulous cakes and great coffee - all served in jam jars (get it?!). This place is truly tiny but packs a lot of quality - just opposite Sainsburys and just up from the main town car park so...

lovely bagels and smoothies looking forward to going back to try the croissants and coffee.lovely decor and blankets supplied for taking off the chill as the seating is mainly outside.

I love the coffee from Jam Jar - and it's so handy to visit after you've been into Sainsburys! Very nice people serving. Always makes me wish I could sit and enjoy my coffee instead of doing a takeaway!

This is the tiniest cafe, with a small seating area outside. Delicious smoothies made with coconut/almond milk etc. Cakes to die for, wheat free options available. Fantastic seeded bagels with avocado and chilli (not gluten free). Jess runs this cafe single handedly and is happy...

Myself and my boyfriend have visited numerous times since moving to Newquay. All fresh food which is delicious aswell as the coffee being good. On my last visit I had a green smoothie which was amazing and by far the best green smoothie I have...

Wonderful friendly, good range of healthy breakfasts, coffee and teas. I can not praise this cafe enough. Its friendly and intimate, and social ! I had their porridge with fruit and nuts and it was amazing ! The owner also freshly bakes delicious cakes as...

Went with my friend during a recent visit to Newquay. It is certainly an interesting place to visit but I must admit I have mixed feelings about it. Firstly I must say that the food is really nice and what I had was certainly very...

This small cafe is a joy to find. Service is excellent and there is a well thought out selection of g/f cakes (chocolate brownie is superb). The latte and capuccino were both rich and creamy. Overall a great place for coffee and cake.

I was in Newquay for work for one month. I really enjoyed the breakfast at Jam Jar. Fresh Muesli Bowls, great coffee, great people and last but not least fair pricing.

Lovely little coffee shop serving simple, tasty food and a great range of gluten/dairy free options. The mozzarella and prosciutto bagels are my regular order and the homemade pesto is delicious, always with an iced coconut latte for me! Big thumbs up!

Cada vez que visita Cornwall tengo que pagar al menos una visita al encantador Café Jess 'Jam Jar! Cafés con una gran variedad de leche y el bagel son perfectas. Mermelada Tarro tiene un ambiente maravilloso personal amable y me encanta! !

This place does the best coffee and pastries. The lattes are really well made. It's a tiny little coffee shop so don't expect any space to sit inside. They have a number of outside seats but no cover so if it's dry weather then it's...

A bijou cafe near Sainsbury's carpark with a trendy decor and a friendly owner. A wonderful aroma of cakes, coffee and spices hits you on entry. The cakes looked great , but as the name indicates, drinks are served in jam jars, a current fad,...

Tucked away opposite Sainsbury's this is a unique little place. Not much room to sit but brilliant healthy and different drinks and eats. The Italian bagel is particularly delicious. Lovely owner who deserves to do well.

This is a lovely, quirky coffee shop in Newquay. I always try to visit when I'm in Newquay. It's a very small cafe but it has a great feel with a friendly atmosphere. I love that hot drinks are actually sold in jam jars...a very...

A fabulous place if you love your coffee...gluten free cakes were also great and served with a friendly smile ...a perfect pit stop

Always go here for the best flat white. Always end up with a cake - usually a raspberry franjipan. Jess makes all her own cakes and they are all amazing, especially the franjipan. Did I mention the franjipan?

Yummy food and drinks presented with a warm welcome. Very cosy inside but seating limited. Also sells various "health" foods and teas.

We stopped here on a cold, windy June day and it couldn't have been more welcoming. The lady who ran it was lovely and the cakes which we couldn't not dig into we're heaven. We didn't have lunch but we saw a couple getting lunch...

OK so you may only have a view of sainsburys car-park, but that doesnt matter when you are drinking a great coffee out of a jam-jar give it a go

I went in with low expectations and left disappointed. Firstly the lady who appeared to be in charge of the establishment appeared to be very busy discussing important matters with another customer who had already been served. Due to her intense interest in this customers...

This tiny place packs a real punch - awesome bagels, delicious cakes and healthy options from breakfast granola to homemade revitalising smoothies. Plus teas and coffees served in cute jam jars...hence the name! Highly recommended.

Lovely little cafe with fresh, moist, homemade cakes. Cosy and friendly atmosphere and drinks served in jam jars (nice touch).

Love the jam jar. The cake is amazing and the smoothies are tasty as!!!Great decor and the girl that runs it is really cool.

My family and I regularly visit the JamJar when in Newquay. Really fresh smoked salmon bagels. Yum, yum.

This place rocks and the lady that runs it is good at what she does. Nice coffee - Origin from Cornwall, made perfectly. The bagels are awesome for a pre surf breakfast and the cakes are very good.Has a relaxing homemade feel to it and sitting outside on a sunny late September morning with clear blue skies is just great.

Visiting Newquay we saw this little place previously on trip advisor as having proper coffee!!It was the BEST coffee ever & we drink a lot of coffee!!!We had coffee & cake as they looked so yummy !! All were also gluten free fab idea! Frangipan is stunning absolutely gorgeous!! & coffee served in a jam jar !!! Awesome!!Friendly warm & welcoming & as name suggests it is like a jam jar tiny!!!But laden with warm cosy blankets if you like to sit al fresco .A real little gem wonderful !

Very lovely cafe with amazing freshly baked cakes and delicious smoothies! Jess is super friendly and always greets you with a big smile

It may be small but the drinks are fabulous - daughter loved the chocolate & raspberry milkshake & hubby said coffee was spot on. The quirky nature of the place really works - totally relaxed vibe & Jess who runs it is lovely.

First thing to point out is that this place serves proper coffee! Combined with this are a selection of amazing homemade gluten free cakes which is almost impossible to choose between. The smoothies are also amazing meaning it is a challenge every time I go in with what to choose. A must go if you are visiting Newquay!

We enjoyed 2 coffees & 2 bagels for brunch and got a take away pork, fennel & apricot sausage roll & a slice of cherry cake to share later on the beach. All food was outstandingly tasty, coffee good n strong and all in cost about £16. Funky little cafe space, loads of magazines/papers to flick through and choice of inside/outside seating. Just wish we lived round the corner from here as I'd visit daily.

Fell upon this great tiny place whilst we walked round. Stopped in for drinks and a bite to eat with my husband and baby girl. The lady who was working there was really friendly and gave us some great places to go whilst we were on holiday. Loved how the drinks were served in jam jars. Had a bagel to go with the drink, which was delicious. I loved how it was all fresh and home baked cakes, so much so we had to take a couple of brownies away with us. Wow! the brownies were the best we have tasted. That every brownie we have tried since then has sadly been a disappointment.

Our rental was right next door to this wonderful place. If you are particular about your coffee, it's a must and it's dog friendly. Such a cool hangout & chilled vibe

We stopped in the Jam Jar after stumbling passed it. It's a tiny little place, with a small menu. Having said that the food we had was amazing and so was the coffee and cake. It's a must visit!

Can't rate this place highly enough. Great fresh food ideas (we went for breakfast), that I would never have thought of. However have now copied for us at home. Lovely coffee, fun friendly vibe, great advise if you get stuck or fancy pinching the method & just has to be done if your in Newquay

Recently refurbished this place is a real gem in the sleepy seaside town of Newquay. Always packed with locals, the food and drink is exceptional! If you took this concept to Any major town or city it would be an instant hit!! Home made, gluten free/fat free produce. The finest organic coffee all add to the experience. Needless to say we will be going back the next time we visit. The owner isn't bad either ;)

Love this place, it's very simple but also quite cool. The staff are really nice despite it being a bit hipstery!The bagels are great!

This is a quaint little place where they serve coffee in jam jars. They had some very nice home made cake when I was there. It is just off the main high street near Sainsbury's, but well worth a visit for a decent cup of coffee.

So, in these harsh economic times, a lot of people wpuld think you wpuld be silly to open a business in somewhere like Newquay, where a business will only thrive in the Summer, and will most likely suffer in the Winter, when the holiday makers are no longer around. To make your business last, you would think that the best way to keep customers coming, would to be polite to them, accommodating when they entered the building, and not chat to their friends while the customer is waiting to order. This obviously not how things are done at Jam Jar, and to top it all off, they didn't even have yogurt. At 9:30amNeedless to say, I will not be coming back, as when I go out to eat, I do not want to be made to feel like I'm not good enough to be in a cafe/restaurant.

The Jam Jar is a tiny coffee shop near Sainsburys. The coffee is very nice and great value - £2 cappuchino. Not much seating though.

Lovely café serving sandwiches/breakfasts to order. Food delicious and we loved the warm drinks served in jam jars.

We had a lovely hour or so with friends , with lattes in jam jars and delicious milk shakes , cakes looked amazing , wished we lived closer

What a lovely little place :-) Chorizo, mozzarella, tomato and spinach bagel, honestly the best bagel I've ever had! And lizzie said she loved her mars milkshake, served in a jam jar. Definitely go there if you get the chance.

We were peckish and so got a snack at Jam Jar after finding it on Trip Advisor and it was worth it. The Mars and Turkish delight milkshakes were amazing and I had a salmon bagel. It was really tasty. I'd definitely go back.

After a long drive to Newquay this was our first stop and the best food of the trip. So simple but delicious.

A quirky little gem opposite Sainsbury's supermarket, easily overlooked but worth searching out. Tiny space inside, but great selection of goodies. Today you could choose between Bounty, Turkish Delight, Mars or Salted Caramel milkshakes; plumped for the salted caramel and it was delicious. The scrummy looking cakes are all made by the girls who run this and you would find it hard to find a warmer welcome anywhere. Cool music playing on the record deck, a selection of filled croissants and bagels. Opted for the chorizo, mozzarella, tomato and rocket this time and it was wonderful. Definitely a place to visit regularly.

We found Jam Jar after checking Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. The welcome and the food were excellent - we all went back for more! A great little place with really fresh food and delicious milk shakes too! The Quirky design really works to create a lovely chilled atmosphere in the chaos of Newquay!

The best home made baking you're likely to taste. Wonderfully healthy food based on a quirky "jam jar" concept. Tucked away from Newquays tourist scene this place this is a real gem. Whether it's a morning snack or a lunchtime treat this place is a must. I've been a number of times during visits to newquay and we've yet to be disappointed. Puts all other cafés to shame

After reading some good reviews we decided to try this place, my husband had a standard white coffee while my son and I had milkshakes (banoffee for him and ginger snap for me) and a piece of chocolate brownie. The brownie was easily the best I've ever had! The jam jar is definitely quirky in a comforting way... Loved the vinyl playing in the background and the relaxed atmosphere. A really good find!!!

Popped in for morning coffee, fantastic decaf iced mocha with a big dollop of ice cream in! Had a blueberry frangipani cake and white choc brownie both delicious! My friends loved their iced drinks too weather was fantastic so drinks were great on a hot day. Will definitely return when back in Newquay. Thanks jam jar

Tiny little place with a heap of character just opposite sainsburys. Went for a granola jar and an iced coffee was lovely just to sit for a bit an relax. Had a lovely chat with one of the owners who was really welcoming and friendly. Vinyl records playing and most things served in jars which is a cute little touch. Really tasty and cheaper than most other places in the area.

Being tiny and humble is The Jam Jar's USP. Any bigger and you would lose the wonderful sense of popping round to see a friend. Imaginative, rustic and comforting, it's also like being in a tree house where you can snuggle up inside or perch outside on a blanket covered bench and watch the world go by.Fabulous coffee. It's "Origin", of course, and they know how to make it better than the ever increasing number of serving staff in cafes with "Barista" emblazoned across their shirts, who wouldn't know a decent cup of coffee from a cup of Bovril.Jess bakes the most amazing goodies fresh every day, most of which are gluten free and made with care using ingredients which may actually do you some good! Having said that, her cakes are still fabulously sinful.Listen to vinyl while you relax and look out for special events over the summer. Just goes to show that you don't have to spend a fortune on props and branding to create a really special coffee (tree) house.

went with mum 4 a coffee very good and nice peeps serving worth a stop before Sainsburys across the road good looking staff (im a man)

Delicious proper coffee. Super friendly staff. Very chilled vibe to watch the world go by. They also do really tasty sweat treats.

Lovely little coffee bar, with as you would expect great coffee, but also great salads and cakes so much groovier than a costa, and as the name suggests everything is served in Jam Jars, really worth a visit, lots of locals go here so you know it must be good.

Quirky and fun serving amazing homemade cakes and nice food menu including yummy bagels and sweet or savoury croissants! Coffee is the best organic Origin blend and all served in jam jars! Elsie and Jess are lovely and make locals and holiday makers feel really welcome! Highly recommended if you want to see the best side of Newquay...oh and probably the cheapest cafe town! :)

I love the jam jar, you walk in to happy old school music and you are served delicious coffee and really fresh tasty food. Flat white, sweet or savoury bagel made to order, a piece of gluten free cake and a dollop of cream, happy days. Service is great and the deck in the summer is perfect for sunshine and people watching. The jam jar is unique and you wont want to leave. A visit to the jam jar is a must if you're in Newquay x

This little quirky place looks to dealing with excellence not the run of the road. Cakes and cookies need to be tried on a daily basis. Such a lovely change from your stereotypical places. Go jam jar,go

Quirky little coffee shop. Great Croissants and bakes, great coffee, lovely staff. Highly recommended.
