Shout out to Café Freddo in Newquay

(Hopefully will make a second visit today 9th September 2025

Discovered Café Freddo in Newquay today, the crazy Café with a table tennis bat traffic system ( the stairs to the cafe toilet are very steep and narrow so access is one by one).

Firstly the ice cream and coffee are amazing.I had a mascaparone ,fig and balsamic vinegar scoop plus  a blueberry scoop in a two tubber and a really nice mocha to accompany it. My other half had a rum and raisin and salted caramel and a latte.Both coffees were well above average and nicely presented with loose Biscoff biscuits(my favourite)

The Café is dog friendly and has doggy ice cream on offer,which my dog really enjoyed.

What I loved about this Café is despite being absolutely on trend with it’s food and drinks, it still has time to care about those less fortunate than us Coffee and Ice Cream lovers with disposable income.

For me when an unkempt man came in and said he wanted to put a pound towards his tab,I thought wow, he’s loud.

The owners though smiled and said that’s great and Clive(one of the owners) said that’s fine and said you’ve only got a couple of pounds outstanding now.

What happened next made me laugh.Clive looked at the pound coin as the unkept man went to exit and said “hold on,this is fake”.The unkempt man turned and looked askance,however, Clive smiled and said”only kidding”. It was a good joke which the unkempt man appreciated,and in a weird way gave him respect and a laugh at the same time.

It was a good moment.Well done Clive,we’ll be back,and I loved the wetsuit hanging up in the back,ready for use after a hard day’s work making ice cream .
