"Small cafe in old signal box up the steps. 4-5 stools looking out onto platform and a couple of tables. Refreshingly old fashioned. Home made cake wrapped in cling film, hot drinks at prices less than the corporate chains. Happy to use it again."

"When it's cold and rainy there is nothing better than a warm and friendly (and minuscule) coffee place like this. Perfect if you wait for the train. Extras: exquisite range of biscuits. Good coffee. Smiling bartender."

"Great café with delightful lady serving hot & cold snacks /beverages, located on 1st floor on Bodmin Parkway platform (café not accessible to wheelchair users). Had planned to have hot bacon bap after pretty walk from Respryn however café had experienced busy morning, so had run out. Despite this, an excellent range of baps/ sandwiches more than made up for this. Café has a small amount of high stools & window bar table, which means you can consume your items whilst taking in delightful views in this very pretty station, which is decorated with beautiful flowers on its platform. Café has no toilets although the station toilets are located just in front of café & are very clean /well supplied. (Whilst eating our lunch, a beautiful old steam train pulled in, which was delightful. (Cream teas/ afternoon teas & Murder Mystery nights on steam train can be booked on line, pick up leaflet in café. Have taken steam train & had cream tea, as well as walk through Respryn, then lunch at this charming café, both highly recommend. (View from café window & photos of steam train attached)."
