Great little place to grab a drink whilst on a walk or chilling on the beach. Well stocked little shop too, even with board hire.

Stopped here 3 times on a coastal walk (!). Dog friendly. Lovely little spot for a bite to eat and some essentials. Nice garden to sit if you want (we didn’t) and friendly staff. Decent coffee and a smoothie on the first stop, then a Cornish pasty and a beer in the second which we ate on the beach (pasties were average, of course they are not made here). Good looking selection of sweet baked goods too but didn’t buy any). Original plan was to have a cream tea back at Bedruthan steps but noted someone’s review further down saying “The ice cream was so good it nearly made me cry. If you walk past here and don’t get an ice cream you should be ashamed of yourself. What kind of monster are you?” So we didn’t want to be ashamed of ourselves and changed our plan post pasty and returned for ice creams (Treleavens) to fuel the remainder of our walk. Absolutely no regrets. Great flavours (none of the boring ones you often find in tourist spots) and the staff were happy to recommend and also let us taste some to help our indecisive minds. New York lime cheesecake, millionaire, peanut butter chocolate and golden crunch all delicious.All in all, just the gem you want on a coastal walk!

Great place for a coffee and a cake! Great, cheerful chatty staff, 2 young staff who know how to talk to customers. Clean and tidy benches for eating outdoors and very dog friendly. Would I come again? Definitely ?As we discussed a pasty a day keeps the miseries away.Thank you girls ?

Small store selling breakfast food and some essentials. Also does coffee and ice cream and do body board/wet suit rentals. Tends to shut around 5.

Helpful and friendly staff serving great coffee, ice cream and pasties plus some shopping supplies. The surf board and costume hire is also very well stocked.

A nice little store that sells some nice items from food, drink to beach items. Very friendly staff. We come every year and get jealous every time we go to the beach as we wanted to buy this shop when it was up for sale as we got friendly with the previous owners. Sadly not all the roads allined at the time but the new owners have redesigned the shop pretty much exactly how we would do it.Only downside is value for money. My partner asked for a large mango smoothie for nearly £5 and what she got was a tiny mcflury sized cup. This is the standard size apparently so we won't be getting drinks there as the sizes are tiny for what you pay.Just a random note unrelated to the store. If you wish to use the toilets situated in the car park then there is a 20p charge.

Stopped in here after walking from Padstow. The ice cream was so good it nearly made me cry. If you walk past here and don’t get an ice cream you should be ashamed of yourself. What kind of monster are you?
