We have been coming to St Mawes on holiday every year for as long as I can remember. We discovered Mr Scorse's shop a few years ago and now it's a must visit every time.
We were there from 12/05-19/05 and
we got takeaway baguettes at least every other day and they're universally adored by my whole family.
This year, we all tried and loved the chicken, chorizo and mustard mayo, the fresh crab, and the ham & apple and onion chutney.
All were absolutely beautiful, the baguettes themselves are gorgeous but the fillings make it a 10/10.
My only slightly disappointment was that last year, there was a smoked salmon, cream cheese and rocket baguette, this was not on the menu this year. I understand the menu changes every so often and we were about a month earlier than last year so that could be why. But the other options more than made up for it.
We've also tried pasties and cakes, which are both equally as tasty (highly recommend the cookie dough brownie).
Service is prompt and Mr Scorse himself is lovely and happy to go above and beyond for his customers.
It's definitely on the more expensive side when it comes to takeaway baguettes (particularly the crab which was £12) but the quality and freshness of them made it feel like it was worth it.
Highly recommend to anyone, you won't regret it.
Great deli. It was very reasonably priced, which surprised me. Nice staff, too. Bargain
We have been coming to St Mawes every year for 20+ years now and for the last few years, one of our favourite places to visit for food is Mr Scorse!
Although they are famous for their crab sandwiches/baguettes (which we agree are lovely), for us, nothing quite beats their smoked salmon, cream cheese, leaves and dill baguettes. Absolutely full to the brim with high quality smoked salmon, it's well worth the money. We also had one of the chicken, chorizo, mustard mayo and leaves baguettes, just wonderful!
On first look, it might seem like the price is a little steep but these are freshly made baguettes with the highest, freshest ingredients possible.
Also thoroughly enjoyed the pasties and cakes we tried (especially the cookie dough brownie!).
If you go to St Mawes and don't visit Mr Scorse, you are missing out. It doesn't get much better than this. Already looking forward to my visit next year!
