The diner window is tempting enough to queue here to get a table so planned a visit on a weekday off peak hour to have cream tea. They do all kinds of Cornish bakery goods along with a good menu for all day food. We had the cream tea which had a big scone with clotted cream and jam with a pot of tea. The scone was a bit dry for my liking but went down a treat with the jam and cream. They had interesting options for tea and both the peppermint and the lemongrass/ginger ones were great for the late afternoon. Service and staff were friendly and good all around.
I know this is a tourist attraction to come to at Ives and it will be busy in the half term holidays but I don’t think that is a excuse for poor service as there were only 3 other tables in the cafe. My dad who is an elderly man ordered some coffees and he wanted milk so when the waitress came over with the drinks he said “ I think there should be milk with that” then she replied with “ well I only have to hand just wait” with a tone and I know she may just be having a bad day but after we heard her saying looking at us do you want any milk with that. But there food was very good, unfortunately I will not be returning.
A fantastic place to eat, great food at a reasonable price. Very friendly staff.
Went here today for breakfast with my husband on his birthday. We didn’t sat on our table until he downloaded an nhs app. It’s understandable that he should have downloaded it beforehand but I also have scanned the app which means we will know if we will get notifications if there’s any issues but they should have an option like writing the details instead(for people who don’t have the app or phones). The guy who entertained us first was unhelpful and unaccommodating! We stood outside for few minutes until we have sorted an NHS app. Also we waited a bit to get served but the staff who took our orders is quite nice and helpful. They served my husband tea in a pot which was weak(only one teabag in a teapot) and food was average. No salt and pepper were served given its a breakfast/brunch cafe. I don’t recommend this place and won’t be coming back. Our first hand experience was quite disappointing, husband would rather eat McDonald’s breakfast! ????????
Sky's Diner is a wonderful Café with some truely great food, they cater for vegetarians really well and do some nice vegan pastys too. Their indoor seating is reasonably small catering for about 30 people so you may have to wait at the door for someone to finish before getting a seat at busy breakfast, lunch or dinner times, But they do takeaway from the window (so grab and go it's the same wonderful food at the end of the day). It is on possibility the busiest Street in St. Ives so no parking. The atmosphere is a little crowded indoors but other than that I can't fault it.
Lovely Cafe, great breakfast, dog friendly.
Visited for a late breakfast and was very impressed. I had the full english breakfast. They were happy for me to swap out the beans (which I’m not a fan of) with another premium item. I doubled down on hash browns. All in, a very impressive ensemble and I especially liked the sausages.
One of our party wanted the yoghurt and french toast with the Berry compote but they had ran out of berries. The waitress was really helpful and offered to get more berries from the shop over the road, which we really appreciated.
They also let Daniel (The Spaniel) in which he was pleased about after his run on the beach.
tight little space but packs in quite a lot. really generous portions - this is a photo of the full english breakfast. hubby had the crab sandwich and loved it too, will definitely recommend you to try if you are in the area!
Not the most amazing crab sandwich I’ve ever had but there was absolutely nothing wrong with it apart from the price! Almost £14 and it was quite basic
