The Best Brew in St Ives? A Visit to Sea of Coffee

If you’re heading to St Ives, make sure you carve out time for a visit to Sea of Coffee — it’s easily one of the best coffee spots in town. ☕✨ Perched right on the harbourfront, this specialty coffee shop serves up seriously good coffee with an unbeatable view. They use beans from Origin Coffee (a local Cornish roaster), and you can really taste the quality — smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. Whether you’re a flat white fan or into filter brews, everything is made with care and precision. There’s a calm, coastal vibe inside — light wood, minimalist decor, and friendly baristas who are clearly passionate about what they do. It’s the kind of place where you can sit for a while, watch the boats drift by, and really take in the charm of St Ives. We sat outside with our coffees and just soaked it all in. They also offer a small selection of pastries and sweet treats — the cinnamon bun was a win! 📍Location: Right on the harbour, easy to find and worth the stop 💡Tip: It can get busy mid-morning, so aim for early or later in the day if you want a quieter seat by the window or outside. Definitely one to add to your St Ives itinerary if you’re into great coffee and gorgeous views. 🌊✨ #stives #seaofcoffee #coffeelovers #cornwallcafeguide #tripcom #cafewithaview #specialtycoffeeuk
