Best coffee in St Ives. If it's good quality, well made coffee you want, only come here. Don't bother with any other place in St Ives, they just don't have the coffee craft like this place. Just what we needed after a long drive down.

Paid a quick visit to pick up a coffee. Walked past ma y times and have never stopped by. Americano was excellent and nice to have the choice of a double shot in a smaller cup. Friendly and polite service. Will go back again

Fabulous, friendly and authentic Italian cafe. The Tartufo Affogato alone would be worth the drive down to St. Ives!!! Definitely give it a go, you won’t regret it.

Great friendly service and some of the best coffee I've had in the area. Great for taking away to drink on the pier while staring out to sea.
