Yallah Cafe is the place to go if you’re looking for a coffee shop with a difference. Located along St Ives harbour, this independent coffee roastery offers a unique blend of coffee roasted in a barn in Falmouth. Tired of the same old coffee taste and craving something with a little more flavour and personality? This small but mighty team of coffee enthusiasts is dedicated to roasting the best coffee in Cornwall.

The coffee is served in handcrafted mugs and, if you’re lucky enough to bag a table by the window, you can watch the world go by whilst overlooking St Ives harbour. The interior of Yallah Cafe is minimalistic and industrial, giving it a unique and trendy vibe. They also offer a small selection of devious home-made pastries and cakes, which are freshly made daily. Additionally, they have a take-away hatch downstairs that is perfect for grabbing a coffee and sitting on the benches opposite to gaze across the harbour. If you love the taste of the coffee so much you can buy any of the range of coffee blends either in the cafe or online.

Also Yallah Cafe is the perfect spot for those who want to enjoy a cup of coffee with your doggie.
