Best Cream Tea in Boscastle: Where to Go

2026-10-15·Boscastle

Short answer: For a cream tea in Boscastle, Bridge House by the bridge does warm homemade scones with jam and cream, and treats for dogs. The Boscastle Farm Shop café on the clifftop does big cream teas with sea views (dogs outside). The Harbour Light Café on the way to the harbour (closed Sunday and Monday) and the National Trust café are good too. Pasties come from the Boscastle Bakery.

Bridge House Tea Room

By the bridge in the village centre: warm homemade scones with little pots of jam and cream, good sandwiches on fresh bread, and a treat for the dog. Bridge House, Boscastle

Boscastle Farm Shop & Café

On the clifftop just above the village, with sea views from the back, its own Ruby Red beef in the farm shop, and big cream teas. Dogs are welcome outside only. A natural stop on the walk to Pentargon waterfall. Open daily, 9am–5pm. Boscastle Farm Shop & Cafe

The Harbour Light Café

A quirky little café-bistro on the walk to the harbour, with fresh scones, light lunches and a sunny courtyard. Dog-friendly. Tuesday to Saturday. The Harbour Light Cafe, Boscastle

National Trust Café

By the harbour, with river views if you get a seat: cakes, Kelly's ice cream and toasties. Dogs welcome inside.
