   We have been a few times to this brilliant restaurant and it never lets us down. Incredible food, lovely staff and one of the best views in the world over the beach to beautiful St Ives. And welcomes dogs too - if you can, it’s always worth a visit

   We were a family group with children and dogs. We had a delicious lunch while enjoying panoramic views of the beach and beyond. Staff were super kind and helpful. All of the food including the children’s was of the highest quality. The tempora pork cheeks, beautifully cooked skate and hake and the monkfish curry were some of our highlights. Very good value for money given the quality of the food. Highly recommended.

   Porthminster Cafe is well staffed and welcoming. You are looked after efficiently, yet in a friendly and relaxed way. The food is simply best I’ve had for quiet a while and I am totally won over.

   Came here to celebrate a big life event and make it a date night while on our vacation in St Ives. The food is the real highlight and needless to say some of the best we have found on the island. The basa was cooked to perfection and the dessert was the perfect cherry on top 😉 We will be back again surely!
