The best restaurants in Padstow Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Friendly mother and daughter team. Had lovely cream tea, excellent value. Later had bacon, sausage sandwich, great bread. Would have preferred bacon, sausage to be cooked more, but that’s personal preference prefer well done. Also sold hand selection of handmade jewellery, trinkets etc. bought lovely earrings and ring.

Lovely creamy ice cream. Big portions for the money as well, great selection of flavours. Staff helpful just watch out for the seagulls!!

We had a family celebration party nearby and first got to taste the pasties at Constantine Bay café the day before the party, then at the party itself ( several varieties, including vegetarian, chicken and meat) and then again the next day when we bought more to take home away from Cornwall. Superb tasting fillings, and pastry, just no comparison with supermarket offerings.

This was a perfect find. The menu is right up our alley - simple food done really well. Fish tacos were a treat, so good I had to drag the family back for a second round. I love places like this that focus on quality of food and service with no poncing around. Little comfort touches like blankets being provided for cooler nights (this is alfresco dining, some cover provided by tipis). If you’re in Padstow or even just within half an hour drive I’d recommend it. Great for kids - lovely setting. Try the tacos!

Used to be a great cafe within a local garden centre where you could guarantee a well cooked, reasonably priced meal. Not anymore!. Just paid £15.00 for undercooked approx 4 ounce burger with a slice of cheddar cheese, 2 slices of tomato and 2 slices of gherkin plus 'chips'. All food lukewarm. This is Cornwall, not Fitzrovia, and even though Mr Ramsay lives here for some of the year no excuse for charging same amount as we pay for a decent burger in his latest restaurant venture. I did ask the waitress to mention my complaints to the 'chef' but this fell on deaf ears. Will not be returning. You have been warned!

Lovely spot to stop, shop and refuel! Great coffee and gorgeous cakes! You can just about get away from the crowds here, worth venturing away from the middle of Padstow, just on edge of shop area, perfect for walkers coming off coast path at Padstow from Hawkers Cove!

Dined here this evening (19 Aug) for the third time in as many months. It never fails to impress. Delicious food, beautifully presented, served by a happy and efficient team. I had the whitebait - great quality as opposed to quantity which tends to be the norm. My main was the linguine, which is stuffed full of delicious seafood. A very generous helping, but managed to finish it as it was SO good. I like to think I’m a chocolate mousse connoisseur, and this one was to die for! There are several restaurants nearby, badged under well known names, but I have to say the Constantine leaves them behind in terms of taste and value. The revamp of the restaurant has been a great success, improving the ambience, and providing a really enjoyable experience. Will be back soon.

What a nice surprise to find this open with very good friendly service from the young lady. Coffee and Chocolate was excellent

Such lovely food in a relaxed atmosphere. The majority of the food has a beautiful Spanish twist and is wonderful, the service is very friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Some starters can be a little large so if you are aiming to get through to a sweet, be careful. Drinks are very reasonably priced.

We ended up here as we were at a local campsite with limited facilities. We had two great evenings: music was great and the prices are very competitive. The food choices are quite expansive for a small location and is tasty and great value for money. We had a small issue (not related to this establishment!) and the staff were really friendly and helped us out much more than they were required to. Definitely recommended!

We didn't eat however a great place to stop have a few drinks enjoy the harbour well worth the stop

Stopped for afternoon cake and cuppa. I always like doggy friendly scoff shops but this one has really nice staff, the cakes are very nice so what else can you ask for. Next time I'll be there for breakfast.

We had a lovely meal at Cafe Rojano - eventually. The food was good - especially the PX glazed chicken wings (I bought the cookbook just to get this recipe!) - but we were left waiting for almost 15 minutes at the door before being shown to our table. We had booked well in advance, and it was a good job we had. The place was packed, and the serving staff were doing their best, but it just seemed a little - hectic. We weren't in a rush, but it took the shine off what could have been a delightful evening.

We went for dinner and although the setting is imaginative and creative the dining room is dark. However, yet again extremely over familiar staff who have clearly not been schooled in how to look after guests. The food was actually disgusting. 3 out of 5 went for the signature fish of pork which was served with 70% lumps of fat (not crackling) my sardines were clearly not fresh. The best bit was the bread. Expensive piss take.

5 star service. Staff couldn’t do enough. We had an amazing break
