Food Scene
A fantastic spot on a fine day overlooking historic Looe Island & Bay - sit outside & enjoy Cornish cream tea on traditional English bone china. Lovely lunches & cakes too! Dogs welcome & great staff.
It's at the start of a particularly stunning part of the South West Coastal path to Talland Bay & Polperro - steep but worth the effort.
Call ahead to check opening hours.
