5 Parade Street, Penzance, TR18 4BU
By car: When you enter Penzance, follow the one-way system past the train station and take the left-hand lane past the Wharfside shopping centre and the harbour. Follow the road onto the promenade, past the Jubilee Pool and turn right at The Lugger Hotel up Queen Street. At the top of Queen Street take the first left past The Globe pub and Cornwall Contemporary art gallery. We are a few metres down, on the left.
Parking: There is no on-street parking outside the café but there are several car parks in Penzance, including Greenmarket car park (TR18 4SG), which is only a two-minute walk away from the café, Clarence Street (TR18 2NP) and Penalverne (TR18 2RQ). The Harbour car park (TR18 2GB) offers longer stay options, more spaces and is only a six-minute walk.
On foot: Walk all the way up Market Jew Street past Tesco Express and Weatherspoon’s pub. Take the first left and cross the road towards Clark’s shoe shop onto Queen’s Square. Take the right turn past the small Co-op onto Parade Street and you’ll see us on your left a few metres down.
