The Porthminster Beach Café is perhaps the most famous restaurant in St Ives and the perfect place for a pre-dinner aperitif – whatever tickles your palate, from a Sipsmith Orange Martini, a serious red wine or a bottle of bubbly if you’re celebrating (you are in St Ives after all). Your trip isn’t complete without a visit to the Porthminster – mark our words.
Fancy a night enjoying your boutique accommodation and curling up together? Head to Scarlet Wines – a local wine shop and delicatessen in Lelant, near St Ives. Pick up a few bottles of something special and head back for some quality time lazing in front of the fire listening to the sound of the seagulls.
When talking tipples we can’t miss out the most important drink of the day – for a classic cup of tea or the perfectly brewed coffee, head to the impossibly charming Olives Coffee for a sit-down experience or the ever-popular Yallah Coffee Kiosk for coffee to-go.
