A gent came in a few minutes after and ordered a white coffee and bacon roll after us! It looked as if she started making the drinks and doing the bacon roll...we waited a while to then see she made the gent who came after us his bacon roll and coffee before ours, we questioned it but shook it off. The lady then came over with my latte then told us there was no more hot chocolate...so we ordered a tea cake (same price £2.50) to save on the hassle... She then made and brought over the tea cake, and we looked up and hot chocolate powder was on the shelf behind her, we had a giggle at her poor look. She must of noticed because she gave them a shake and left the tubs on the shelf meaning it contained hot choc

In comparison to two other coffee shops I frequent, one in Launceston and the other in Wadebridge, which I would rate 10/10, I would probably give Beech Cafe a rating of 1/10. Additionally, the cafe was busy and we waited around 20 to 25 minutes for the "cappuccinos" to be served.

Even though they were only £3, they should still be enjoyable. Drinks didn't arrive until after the rolls, despite there only being 4 other customers seated.

Even if you're not take the trip from Tavistock or turn off the road to Cornwall via Gunnislake well worth going out of your way for. It's open all year great looking home made grub and fabulous coffee.
