"While visiting Helston to explore the nearby museum, we stumbled upon this hidden gem for lunch and we were thrilled that we did. The service was exceptionally friendly and our food arrived promptly, especially the sandwiches for our young children which came out first. It is always a bonus when restaurants prioritize bringing out kids' meals first and quickly. We all opted for sandwiches, and the bread was wonderfully soft. I indulged in a bacon and sausage sandwich and thoroughly enjoyed it. My wife and I also indulged in the cream tea, which was superb. The freshly made scones were incredibly soft and moist. We highly recommend a visit to this place, and we will definitely return if we find ourselves in Helston again."

The food at this restaurant was fantastic. I ordered the big breakfast and my friend had the veggie option. Everything was freshly cooked and served to us promptly. We will definitely return to this spot the next time we are in the area. View menu

We've been to many cafes and restaurants, but nowhere else locally can compete with The Coffee Bean. Mincemeat frangipani tart, warm with clotted cream, was divine. Tea and coffee were hot! We'll be back soon Service: Dine in Meal type: Other Price per person: £1–10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

A very relaxed atmosphere with extremely friendly staff. The food was yummy and went down very well. Only very minor complaints about service were we were asked if we wanted sauces, to which we replied yes but then still had to ask for them after our food arrived and then there were a couple of customers that came in moaning and groaning which ruined the relaxing atmosphere. Overall very happy with this place. Service: Dine in

"EDIT: THIS VISIT GAVE ME BAD FOOD POISONIN WHICH I AM STILL RECOVERING FROM! Where to begin. Me and my partner has eaten here before and the first time was absolutly amazing. Everything came quick and fresh and couldn 't stop talking about this place. Yesturdays evening was the complete opposite. Service was quite slow, after you order your first drink it takes a while to try flag anyone down to order again, when we did the person said they would bring us a drinks menu then completely forgot about us. We ordered a bunch of starters and that alone took about 30+ mins to come to the table. When it finally arrived, the squid was very tough and stringy. The oysters were good so I will give them that, but it 's hard to mess up something you don 't have to cook! Our third starter was the ham croquettes. These were absolutely stone cold to the point I thought it was meant as a cold dish till my partner told me it wasn 't. I can only assume things were sat at the pass for ages. Another worrying thing that happened was with their newly installed fireplace at the back. There was only one family of 3 sat at the back with us next to this fireplace and at one point it was bellowing out smoke into the back area causing all of us to cough. The smell of smoke was so strong and stayed for a long time, I felt very sorry for the family closest to the fire. The staff did not seem to know how the fire place worked and we 're just hoping it fixed itself. Ok back to the review...We put the starters behind us and decided to look forward to the mains, they all sounded absolutely mouth watering! I went for the pork chop and my partner the Malaysian chicken thighs. Once again, from finishing the starters to getting our mains this took around 40mins or more to come out. Now I do not mind waiting if the kitchen is busy and wants to make everything perfect and fresh, however, there were not that many people in the restaurant at the time and what finally came to us was unacceptable at this price point. BOTH dishes again were very cold! My pork chop was quite underwhelming, I could taste the flavours and it went well with the side salad and apple sauce but I was expecting something a bit more special. The same goes for my partner, she liked the flavours in the chicken thigh dish, but it again was entirely cold. At this point we were so hungry we gave up and kept eating. Before we were asked how things were, the table of 3 next to the fire had called over the staff and were having a long discussion pointing to various plates on their table. In the end we managed to catch some of the conversation which turned out to be the same complaints as ours (food was nice but everything was cold and wished it was hot) when they took their plates away I could see quite a lot was left. When we finally managed to speak to somebody and gave them the exact same feedback we was told that the dish came with side salad so you know, hot and cold together sometimes things get cold I was a bit shocked by this as my chop was nowhere near my salad and neither was my partners chicken. It felt like she was giving excuses for the kitchen staff instead of acknowledging there was an issue or helping to find a solution (something again you wouldn 't expect at the prices they are asking £30-40 a mains) We decided to leave it at that and both of us agreed we would never be returning. It wasn 't until the end of our meal a lovely waitress came to clear things and asked again how we was doing and how our meal was. We explained our issues and she just stood and listened and apologised, she then thanked us for bringing it to her attention. After she came back with the bill she explained that she was not happy we had a bad experience and many items were cold so put on a 25% discount telling us that she remembered us from our first visit and didn 't want this to be our last and hoped we would come back and give them another go. This was the only saving grace of the entire night for us and because of her we are willing to try Kota Kai again, hopefully when staff food are up to standard."
