Our Café in Padstow has something for everyone.
Nestled in the heart of Padstow, our informal family friendly café now offers an all-day menu that celebrates local and global cooking. From a relaxed brunch to a light lunch or a leisurely evening meal, our new dishes are inspired by Rick’s travels and passion for fresh, simple ingredients.
The menu features locally sourced produce and the freshest fish, combined to create simple dishes from around the world – especially the Far East. Rick’s salt and pepper prawns, for example, have been a mainstay on the menu ever since he bought the recipe back from Hong Kong in the 90s.
Whether you’re popping in after a morning by the harbour or settling in for a cosy supper, our café is the perfect place to pause, unwind, and enjoy good food.
FAMILY FRIENDLY
Children are very welcome at Rick Stein’s Café – our children’s menu is available during lunch and dinner service.
All children and babies should be included in the table size when making a reservation. Please note on your booking if you require a highchair.
PUSHCHAIRS
Due to the size of the café there isn’t space for pushchairs – they can however be left safely in our entrance hall.
DOGS
Dogs are welcome in our courtyard only. Our secluded courtyard away from the hustle and bustle of Padstow has three tables that are partially covered and are only available if the weather permits.
Please note that we cannot offer a table inside the Café in the event of inclement weather for tables booked in the courtyard.
PARKING
There are four large pay and display car parks in Padstow; the harbour, South Quay, Link Road and the Lawns car park.
