The Loft Eatery in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

The area is stunning and so much could be made of this place but the food was revolting. We had just done a long drive and had not realised that most food is not readily available early in the week or after 2pm so went to the cafe hoping to get at least a snack and take in the views. The menu was very limited ,the staff did not seem to know what was available and were more concerned with sitting chatting outside. We ordered burger and chips and were eventually informed this was a veggie burger. Having gone through the limited choices we settled on chicken burgers. These turned out to be chicken goujons in a bun with some chips in a plastic take away container. There was no salad, relish or pickles and we were informed they had run out of mayo but might be some if I searched through the other sachets which were just inside the door.. There was no cutlery ,no serviettes and I had originally ordered cheese for the beef burger but did not get a refund or any alternative offered. This disgusting meal cost just under £30 !!! As we left the staff were sitting out in the sun chatting with friends and one lady was eating ice cream from one of the big metal containers usually used for freezer storage. Health and safety? Trading standards? This place could be fantastic given the views and location but this might have been the worst meal we have ever eaten and price wise very poor value for money. We recommend that you avoid this place at all costs.

We visited this restaurant again today 2/12/24 as we had a fabulous experience on Friday 29/11 Sadly on 2/12 it was not the same team of staff and a totally different experience 😟 On the 29th we were made extremely welcome by all the staff and we enjoyed the experience.. Benjamin was very helpful and friendly so that is why we traveled over an hour again today to visit for lunch .. We wish we hadn’t returned.. So sorry Benjamin I would have given 5stars if it was the same both days .. we totally understand through the winter things are different and hours may change for staff.. but sadly your staff are a huge reflection on reviews ..

Had a takeaway and have to say really very impressed. Well cooked, crispy bottom, fresh flavours. Better than some well known pizza chains, Suspect there may be another one this week! Very good for vegetarians. Friendly staff and felt clean and safe, thank you.

Good local, pub great value for money rooms. Good food
