The Plantation Tea Rooms in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Went there twice during my week in Polperro. Once for lunch, had the most delicious GF pasty. Second time for breakfast. The food was amazing and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Food was horrible and expensive and waitress very rude and not good at her job. Would give 0 stars if I could. Not recommended.

We went here twice on our recent trip and the staff were friendly and the food was nice. The only trouble is on the second visit it was raining so they shut the outside seating area and because it’s quite small inside a lot of people were turned away but we waited for people to finish and got a table.

Visited here on a Monday afternoon during a walk around the village. Beautiful food and drinks in such a pretty spot of Polperro. Would visit again

The loveliest cream tea served by the warmest of staff. Have happy memories of taking my late mum here a number of years ago, made a new happy memories today.

Gluten free Cornish pasties. Gluten free cakes, gluten free scones .... utterly delicious and lovely friendly staff. A little place of gluten free delights 😊

Food and drink both amazing. Great choice especially for gluten free options. Plenty of filling the in the sandwiches. Very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend it.

Positive experience: Lunch was great and food tasted fresh, absolutely delightful with the food. Kids enjoyed their food, lots of cheese, ahhhh. Staff were friendly. Negative experience: Sense of hygiene absolute zero, 2 ladies serving stroked 2 dogs that came in with their owners, and then went on to serve people afterwards. I think that is awfult, the least you could do is wash your hands after doing that, i have nothing against dogs but to ignore basic hygiene is ridiculous in a restaurant.

Lovely tea room, very prettily decorated and a friendly welcome. The espresso was exceptional and the tea was very nice. We were very happy to see vegan cream teas so had one each. Beautiful soft, warm scones (and very big!) with lovely thick preserve and vegan cream (not squirty cream 😀). Reasonably priced too! Will definitely be back!

We had a super friendly welcome as soon as we entered the tea rooms with our springer spaniel. They really looked after us including treats for the puppy. We had lunch followed by two very generous slices of cake. The food was just what we needed on a cold day and was very tasty. The tea rooms are nicely decorated and have a homely feel. We would definitely recommend a stop here for refreshments.

What a find ! Great tea room with gorgeous cream tea . Staff are amazing and the cafe is so inviting and warm on a chilly February day

Whenever we visit Cornwall we always visit The Plantation for the best cream tea. Our recent visit did not disappoint. Highly recommend it.

Gluten free food is amazing service was brilliant (even gave our dog a treat) overall a brilliant place

Best tearoom in Polperro Fabulous breakfast. Very tasty using local produce. Hosts very friendly and attentive Lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend

Called in today ( 26th October) whilst in Polperro for the last day of our holiday. Decided to have some lunch and wow, it was absolutely amazing! Little one had a milkshake and a half jacket potato with tuna from the kids menu and she ate all of it! Even said it was the best jacket potato she's ever had. Partner and I had a brie and bacon ciabatta and a fish finger ciabatta roll which we had half each of and both were out of this world! Followed by a cream tea to share which again was the best we've ever had! A cream tea for one has 2 scones and a pot of tea that done 3 cuppas! Will definitely be back! Great food, great atmosphere and amazing staff, can't recommend highly enough!

Super gemütliches Café auch für Vegetarier/Veganer. Sehr freundliches Personal. Hat auch einen gemütlichen kleinen Garten. Jederzeit wieder👍😊

Called in for lunch met by niki what a lovely lady food we had was perfect toasted sandwich and jacket potato 2 teas had a lovely chat with niki looking forward to going back cream.teas looked fabulous but we were full thank you 😊

We happened upon the tearooms by chance on our last day in the area and we had been disappointed by the service levels in other establishments. Not a problem here! Very friendly and super-efficient staff welcomed us and our dogs and provided best quality cream teas and cappuccinos with amazing speed. Highly recommended!!!

A friendly smile and welcome drew us in. We had tea in the garden. The server was so lovely. Great tea and the river running past our table.

The staff here are extremely friendly and welcoming but sadly the food needs some serious improvement. We ordered a traditional cornish pasty and a Cornish cream tea. Our expectation was that these items would represent the taste of Cornwall as both are pretty symbolic of this fabulous county. The pastry of the pasty was soggy and had obviously been reheated in a microwave :( The scones were not homemade but were mass produced which crumbled once the cream and jam were put on making it almost impossible to eat. Come on - you need to do better !

Called at this cafe for lunch while in Polperro. It was lovely! Very good selection on the menu served quickly. Was nice to have jacket potato and toasted sandwiches as these sometimes get forgotten in Cornwall cafes. Service was with a smile and a chat which made the visit.

My wife and I stopped for lunch. The menu was vast with a good selection of Gluten free options. The food was excellent and would definitely re-visit.

I had toasted sandwiches, 😋 very nice place to have refreshments and snacks. Really really nice, plus comes with side garnish, I have been here faw times

A delicious full English Breakfast, perfect. Staff were friendly and attentive whilst not in your space. Decor is lovely, spotlessly clean and a great outdoor seating area also.

I really wanted to give this lovely café 5 stars, but I had to mark them down because of the amount of time I was kept waiting just to be acknowledged and eventually served. Upon entering the café I asked at the counter if I...

Always look forward to visiting when in the area for coffee and scones and our visit this year once again didn’t disappoint. Greeted by a lovely cheerful lady who also took our order. Scones come out warm and are huge. The others had toasties which...

My wife is Celiac and cannot have any gluten in her diet and we spied “gluten free” in the window as we walked by. I am NOT gluten free , but when we ordered the waitress said to go ahead and order mine as gluten...

My husband and myself stopped in here as I had looked it up the day before visiting Polperro. It featured gluten free options which was our main reason for visiting. They had gluten free cornish pasty, which I couldn't resist trying. It was the best...

This is a great place for a nice,light snack. The staff here are very kind and friendly. Outside is dog friendly and there is nice scenery around the cafe. Vegans are allowed to come here for a nice cream tea.

Lovely ladies served me and were kind and helpful - I forgot to pay (owing to confusion with buying raffle tickets to raise funds for the Christmas lights!🤣) and they couldn’t have been more polite in gently calling me back 🤣 Fingers crossed that I...

Thoroughly enjoyed our experience, the waitress was really lovely to our daughter and involved her with the drinks. It started raining whilst we were there but that didn’t matter as we were sat under an umbrella. The food was lovely and the ham in the...

Wonderful food off a varied menu caters for all dietary requirements, friendly helpful staff, great location. Establishment has good sense of humour Squirrel stew - may contain nuts 🤣

Lovely cakes, brilliant friendly welcome, attentive service. Cheered us up on a murky morning. Definitely visiting again.

My husband and I were keen to try the savoury cream tea as neither of us eat cream (sorry!) The cheese scones were light as a feather and served warm. The caramelised onion chutney was sweet and tangy and the tea was tasty and piping...

My husband and I went on the 6th July for a wonderful reasonably priced Ploughmans Lunch which I can highly recommend and an added bonus of a small bottle of sparkling rosey which a lot of places don't do. The staff were very pleasant and...

Visited over the weekend service was good and cream tea was great.Although, I struggle with the vegan cream tea because it doesn't come with an equivalent cream in fact there is no cream at all in the vegan cream tea

Good location, great service and plenty of gluten free options. Friendly staff and great food. Pleasant relaxed atmosphere.

Friendly staff and one of the best pasties we have ever had on a visit to Cornwall. There is plenty of seating outdoors, with umbrellas for rainy days. Menu options were good, with gluten-free available.

Popped in for a late breakfast (11.30). Fast service, good portions and very tasty food at a reasonable price. Special mention to the young staff members who were all polite, efficient and engaging. Highly recommended.

Friendly and welcoming from the start. Our dog was completely spoilt by multiple gravy bones. Food lovely. Highly recommend.

Called in here today nice cafe/ tea rooms. I had the lasagne which was very nice. Came with garlic bread and salad cost was £12.95 My fiance had the sausages in a baguette with crisps and side salad priced at £7.50. Pleasant staff and nice...

Was told they did a gluten free cream tea and was not disappointed my wife said they were some of the best ever Staff very helpful and friendly

This is a lovely café with lots of outside seating in amongst the beautiful flowers and plants. It is really relaxing to sit in the garden and have a bite to eat. There is also inside seating. They serve alcoholic drinks, soft drinks and hot...

Thank god this quaint little place is still the ladies were still as warm and friendly. We have had a lovely lunch here meals well made and plentiful even for a gluten-free person .missed it.

We had a lovely late morning cream tea here, the waitress was initially surprised that two of our party wanted to swap out their hot drinks for a refreshing Cornish cider but was able to sort this for them. The standard cream tea is two...

Perfect and amazing gluten free cream tea and cornish pasty. Staff were friendly and couldn't do enough, even gave our dog a biscuit. Best gluten free place we have found,

Very pretty cafe and had a good menu. We had the cream tea which was yummy and the fruit scones were hot out of the oven.

Lovely place by the river. Beautiful outdoor tables with an abundance of potted flowers that were well looked after. We enjoyed a Cornish tea and the servers were super nice and friendly. Highly recommended and fair prices.

A lovely friendly welcome in this pretty place. Our dogs enjoyed their sausages while we had a lovely cream tea. Highly recommend

Lovely location by the stream, umbrellas for shade if needed, service with a smile and excellent scones (2 per cream tea)! We visited twice in 3 days, each time a great experience. The courgette & lime cake was delicious too.

Stopped off for a sunny stroll through Polperro and popped in here for lunch. We were greeted & seated promptly, served quickly too, the food was delicious and the view was lovely; a truly idyllic part of the world. Can highly recommend a visit here.

The service is amazing! Everyone was so sweet and kind. The food was delicious and the scenery was beautiful. This is a place I would definitely recommend. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

A truly brilliant experience. Food was first class and very reasonably priced and service was both friendly and efficient

Outdoor seating, friendly service and a really good range of gluten free options including several choices of cake.

Really friendly place with a nice breakfast and a great outdoor area. We went back a few time on our stay and loved it.

What a lovely place and the server karen went above and beyond. Great food and great service, will come again. Keep up the good work.

Fantastic scones jam & cream , super friendly service and a seat in the garden to enjoy the sunshine, just a lovely glass of wine added to the whole experience, thank you

Absolutely perfect! We felt very welcome. We sat inside with our dogs and had half a jacket potato each laden with beans, and accompanied by a large fresh tasty salad. It was hot. The potato even tasted like a real potato ( if you know...

Popped in for lunch on our first visit to Polperro. Such a pretty tearoom and the staff are naturally friendly and welcoming. Our 3 year old was adamant he would only eat a hot cross bun, so the staff said he could have a very...

A great find for us in Polperro. We enjoyed a superb Prawn Baguette and glasses of very good red and white wine. All served promptly and by very cheerful staff. Excellent value made it one of the best lunch stops we have had.

Visited with my mum and little boy, had the BLT and Bacon, Brie and cranberry, both on ciabatta. These were so fresh and tasty, came super quick too which was great with a rather grouchy toddler. The place was dog friendly and had a lovely...

Went here for a spot of lunch, didn't disappoint. We come here every time we come to polperro and its normally for the amazing cream teas! 😋

What a find! We cannot recommend The Plantation highly enough, great service, delicious food, the best milkshakes, a treat for our dog, the perfect place for lunch. The potions were generous and there was a great selection on the menu, both food and drinks alike....

What an absolute treat to have several gluten free choices when it comes to cakes! All made on the premises and a true delight. Very very good for gluten free and not just cakes. Lovely and friendly, cute little tea room, pretty outdoor space (although...

Pleasant setting, friendly staff. Cream tea. ... Cream and jam as you would expect BUT why ruin a scone by warming it in a microwave? Unless they're from the freezer... Texture is as important as taste and I rather suspect these were from a generic,...

The Plantation Tearooms is an excellent reason to visit Polperro. We popped in today after a wander around the village. We have passed it a couple of times on previous visits to Polperro before, once late last year and unfortunately they we shut for the...

Visited for breakfast, service was friendly and efficient but the food was lacking, nothing was cooked particularly well and the toast had barely seen the toaster, just needed more attention to detail, shame as the setting is nice

Visited this morning. Ordered a sausage roll. It had clearly been heated, a lot, in a microwave. Incredibly tough and rubbery pastry. Couldn't even cut it with a knife without lots of effort. I didn't eat any of it. My teenage daughter didn't want to...

A brilliant place to come and visit, we enjoyed a well priced, tasty breakfast. Child and dog friendly. Lovely outdoor seating area and spacious indoor seating area. Give it a try if you are visiting Polperro.
