Cute little rest stop right on a coastal walk. Hidden little gem in a beautiful setting. Great service, delicious scones and coffee. Recommend visiting if your in the area.

Recommend walking the trail from Padstow, round the bay, to Rest a While Tea Garden. The sweet and savoury scones were amazing! Lady serving was extremely friendly and funny - would highly recommend especially with the view overlooking Daymer and Polzeath in the distance.

Stunning little gem of a place. The best cream tea ever. Warm freshly made scones served with fruity strawberry jam and Roddis clotted cream. Simply the best we've ever tasted. Fabulous menu choice where everything is Homemade. Please do visit. Fantastic views and served with a friendly smile. Definitely a place not to miss.

Fantastic little stop, recommended for a refreshing drink and generous slice of carrot cake! The lovely owner also provided our dog a couple of doggie treats. Water in bowls available too. If you're walking the south west coastal path make sure to rest here a while. Will definitely return.

We stopped here on the way back from walking to Stepper Point - having seen the signs on the way there. Sitting in the sun with a cream tea (with scones fresh out of the oven) and stunning views over the estuary - what more could you want? Heaven! The owner was also lovely - so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

What a brilliant little place! Me and my wife came across Rest a While by chance and have ended up having the best cream tea ever - and we’ve had plenty!! We arrived just as the scones had come out the oven and the view alone is worth the visit. The service was quick and friendly and a bonus that dogs are welcome! 100% would recommend to anyone who is fortunate to stumble across Rest a While.

Absolutely LOVELY place to stop off on a walk. Well worth the little detour we took to get there. The most incredible views over the bay, super friendly and welcoming staff, and gorgeous food and cakes 😊 We would definitely come back here again! Please note, there are no toilets on site (but a nearby path to have a cheeky wee! 🤭)

No thank you, until the owner relents I will not go in again!<br/><br/>The staff who serve are great and so is the food, Shame about the rude owner and the lack of heating. The village has lost some of its soul since expanding and money must be tight if charges for tap water are the method of getting an increased income.

The service was a bit slow and the ambience could have been better. The food was good. I did find it a bit expensive for the quantity though.

Used to be really good and authentic 'Indian' back in the day. Apparently not anymore after my recent dining experience here.<br/><br/>Business expansion should not compromise quality but in this case, it has.

Did my engineering from Glasgow College of nautical science. Those were the days when like any college student, I required money to have a good time. So like most of my batch mates, i started working part time in an Indian Restaurant. The restaurant happens to be Village Curry House. Worked here for almost 5 months. The bater (quail) served here is super soft and delicious. The giant chicken pakoras are the biggest i have ever tasted anywhere in the world.

Generally, the food is great and I am definitely coming back at some point judging by the number of locals who were dining here on a weekday evening.<br/><br/>That says alot about the food.
