Lovely traditional cafe. Staff were both polite and friendly, made you feel welcome, special mention to the guy in charge. We had one of the breakfasts which was excellent. Would highly recommend. Nice to know you can still get quality food and great service. ( Visited 20-3-2025 )

Stayed in Perranporth for a week in March, first morning (a Sunday) we sought out breakfast. We found the Dolphin Cafe.
Hubby had the No4 breakfast and I had the Meat Free, unlike many other places this didn’t include a meat substitute, and it certainly didn’t need to. It was delicious, perhaps a bit Carb heavy but hey that’s what holidays are for. I sat there doing a happy dance whilst eating. We got chatting to the staff/owner who were so lovely and friendly asking us where we planned to go and giving us tips.
Just a note in answer to a couple of comments I have read about the Takeaway. This is a kiosk separate to the cafe, so to enter you would have to leave the kiosk and go into the cafe by a different entrance therefore I can totally understand why the owners would not want people using the cafe as a waiting room for takeaway customers. No you are not special, no your circumstances are not unique, yes you need to adhere to the rules like everyone else. So stop trying to ruin peoples businesses because you weren’t treated like the princess you clearly think you are.- Service

I only had a cup of tea but the food they brought out looked appetising. And prices looked reasonable. Also it looks out over the beach so you have a wonderful view

Honestly, the view from the cafe is great. The food was fantastic and the chef cooked the food very well. The hog pudding was a first for me, and I would highly recommend it.

Love this cafe. If your visiting Perranporth then this cafe is well worth going to for something to eat or you can takeaway too. The menu is huge, something for everyone so really we were spoilt for choice. Cafe itself is small but has tables outside.

Absolutely fantastic spot! Really glad that we decided on it, super helpful and very friendly. I would definitely recommend that you all take a visit whether it’s to sit in and have a beautiful view of the beach or takeaway and have a stroll along the beautiful beach. Either way, you’ll have a fantastic experience.
