The best restaurants in Porthleven and Helston South Cornwall, Isles of Scilly South West

Popped in for breakfast this morning, coffee excellent, teacake superb, granola and yoghurt with fruit incredibly generous, toast perfect. We will be back. Thankyou.

Ced’s Bagels Porthleven. Salmon & cream cheese bagel better than Brick Lane. Reuben's bagel better than Katz Deli NYC. So glad we found it !!

Visited in July and again at the end of September. Had the curry box and the wife had the Buddha box Both times a really good mix of flavours in each . Will definitely be back next time we are down in Cornwall

Saturday lunch time. Sun just broke out over the harbour. Back against the harbour wall … sun on our faces… and food to die for… smoked haddock and butter bean chowder , Cornish mussels and crispy bread and a pint of sweet Appleseed cider. Superb!! Don’t tell anyone!!

Went last night for dinner at 6pm, already 3 tables seated. We sharedgarl8cbread to start which was delicious. Hubby had the Hake and said it was delicious, I had the chicken breast which was divine. Only downside was the noise level.

What a fabulous hidden gem! Food was so tasty and served really quickly and massive portions… it’s a shame we’re leaving for home today as would absolutely eat here again and again! Everything on the menu sounds delicious. I had nachos with pulled pork and my partner had the nacho burger. 10/10 🥰

A fantastic experience! Lovely views of the harbour with a very modern and fresh interior. We had two small plates plus one main, which were all served nice and quick. The Kai Fried Chicken was delicious with lots of sauce, the Pork Belly Bao Bun had a tasty char-grilled flavour and finally the Crab Roll was fresh and full of flavour. The coffee was also well presented and of a high quality. Super friendly and accommodating staff rounded the experience off perfectly, highly recommended!

What a disappointment . Been here every year but this time a disaster. Popped in for a cream tea and coffee and cake . The cream tea the worst I have had in Cornwall , and the lemon meringue pie was the smallest portion I have ever seen !! for £4.80 a rip off . We don’t mind paying we are on holiday and whilst we understand prices if you do serve such small portions then reflect accordingly in the price charged . We did bring this to the management attention who then said that was how the suppliers pre cut it !! What a load of rubbish don’t blame suppliers I am not interested it is your business and needless to say due to your rudeness we will never be back . Other reviewers have made similar comments about prices, portions, and very poor customer service . Perhaps you should listen to your customers that keep your business going . I would not recommend this place to anyone .

It was 10 mins before lunchtime closing I asked are we too late?? No not a problem what would You like was the lovely ladies reply. 15 mins after ordering we were served with super quality fish dinner. A big YES we would recommend YOU visit. (25.09 2024)

3 of us had a different pizza each All enjoyed and what I left was booked up to take home Reasonably priced and they also do takeaway

Great little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly, fun staff with excellent quality food. Gets busy so reserve a table if you can.

Worst we’ve ever had. Cost £25 for three fish and two chips. Threw nearly all of it in the bin as fish way over cooked - dry as a bone and tasteless. Chips dry and inedible.

Overpriced for tiny sized drinks, £3.70 for a minuscule latte and very very unfriendly. Croissants nice but again massively overpriced. Caters only for trendy affluent types only.

Lovely food, lovely staff! We got a takeaway baguette and salad, both of which were so tasty. The evening pizza menu looked fantastic too. The ingredients were all fresh and good quality. I’d Highly recommend!

End of lockdown, so everywhere was rammed or had huge queues. We waited about 20 mins for this and it was really unusual and absolutely delicious! We had a large Fishermans Basket and dirty fries to share, plenty of food for two.
