Newlyn, British, Traditional Restaurant Guide

2024 Review: Set within a “beautiful sculpture park” outside Penzance hosting works by art-world stars James Turrell and Richard Long amongst others, this pleasant eight-year-old restaurant offers an “excellent selection of vegetarian dishes” (but not just) and classic cream teas. Stop in for the “lovely brunch and then walk it off” in the grounds – or else grab a takeaway from their hut, and picnic on the hill with views of St Michael’s Mount.

For “a quick coffee or some delicious food” (a ploughman’s lunch with local cheese, home-cooked scones and lemon drizzle cake, say) this cute venue, nearing its first decade in business, is “well worth a visit”. The café-style front area leads on to a plant-filled conservatory at the rear, and there’s an attractive garden with more seating and a pond.
