The end of of stay in the Scillies coincided with the first day of opening for the season at Carn Vean. We had visited before and didn't think it could get better, we were wrong. The food, the service, the speed and friendly welcome was excellent. The value for money is very good and way better than anywhere else we found. There are some new additional covered seating areas and ample seating to enjoy the sun. We stumbled across Carn Vean 6-7 years ago walking to Pellistry, it is now out go to place to eat. I would recommend the walk, drive or cycle for a coffee, cake, lunch.
Beautiful, quaint and perfect little tea break for a walk round the island.
However, food leaves a bit to be desired. Too much salad on the microwaved sandwiches and smaller than average scones for the high price…
We stopped off here for lunch during our hike around the coastline of St Mary’s. We both agreed that the best lunch of our trip was had at Carn Vean! Such a lovely location and great fresh food. Just what we needed. Also loved watching the little birds! Thank you
