    It's worth noting that this is a takeaway café with no indoor tables. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly, with one running out to the car to explain the above situation in case I wanted to just stay in the car and avoid the hassle of getting out and another who came out, without asking, to move her bicycle which she thought was blocking the ramp (it actually wasn't). I ended up just waiting outside at a table anyway. We had coffee and cakes. The coffee was lovely and served in proper mugs. The gingerbread loaf was absolutely delicious and the apple cake was wonderfully moist. Could do with a wider savoury range... maybe add something more local than a Cornish pasty? Definitely worth a visit while waiting for the ferry.

    There is a ramp available if you need to get into the food service area/shop, but I ended up staying outside while my companions went in to order. There are plenty of picnic tables dotted around, but not all are accessible to wheelchairs due to gravel or steps.

    The car park is on a slope, parts of which are too steep for self propelling. There are two disabled spaces at the top end of the free car park.

    Accessible Toilets

    0

    Being, strictly speaking, a takeaway establishment, there are no public toilet facilities here at all.
