Our story
Hello from Olives Cafe
Olives is a small licensed cafe on Island Square, a quiet cobbled corner of Downlong a few minutes' walk from Porthgwidden beach and the harbour — look for the hand-painted roses on the wall and the green tables out front.
The scones are baked fresh each morning — plain, fresh blueberry, mixed fruit and cranberry, whatever the board says that day — and the kitchen runs from homemade quiche and a giant sausage roll with salad to grilled halloumi and lamb kofta. Cream tea comes the Cornish way: jam first, then the clotted cream, tea in a proper pot. Tables inside by the counter and out front in the square.
