Everything that the Spar has plus a Deli, amazing selection of cheeses, better booze and freshly prepared heat-up meals. The staff too are really friendly and helpful. It's open till eight an night - so trumps the Spar there too. Prices are not unreasonable for somewhere like Rock, and I thoroughly recommend a visit here.

On their website it says lunch is served from 9.15. So we get up and in the car to pick up some sandwiches. We get there at 10.05 and order, but they don't start serving lunch food till 10.30. Why state on your website a earlier time then? We've made the drive here, so say we will wait. In return we got given a look as if this was the biggest inconvenience ever. So we waited. 10.30 came and went. We wasn't sure if we could order or not - the lady didn't call us over and say 'Thanks for waiting, what would you like?'. Nothing. So we go ask 'Is it ok to order now?' with smiles on our faces. She rolls her eyes, grabs a notepad and writes down what we want - I asked a question, she couldn't even look at me to answer me, rolls her eyes again then tells us it will be a while because she's not ready. If it wasn't for my boyfriend really wanting to eat here, I would have just walked out and not got the sandwich. In fact, I did walk out and left him to pay. I'm not rude and I don't expect people to be rude back to me. I understand you might be busy, so just explain and all will be cool. What makes it weirder is that I heard her being polite to a local. So maybe as a visitor to your lovely village (as one who might not return for a while) we don't deserve the same respect. The sad part is our sandwiches were good. Really good. My tuna melt was the best I've ever had and it was a really good price at £12 for two sandwiches and drinks. But would I go back while on holiday here? Nope.

If you are looking to get away from more touristy Marazion or Penzance, make the drive to Porthleven and eat here. We started with the bread with hummus and olives. The bread had a warm fennel flavor and the hummus had great texture. My friends had the warm seafood starter and I had the Porthleven crab. It was everything crab should be: sweet, fresh and juicy. For mains all three of us had the same dish: hake filet with sautéed greens, pea shoots, lemon, anchovies and capers. It was a perfectly balance dish and the fish was cooked perfectly. Dessert was a creme brûlée with rhubarb compote and ginger ice cream. Quite lovely. Service was excellent. Beware, it's a small place and very popular. You will need a reservation!

Full of different cheeses, hams, bacon and so on, this is a great shop for high quality cold food…read more They also make pasties and pies (for me, there is too much turnip in their pasties, but many people consider them their favourite pasty). They also sell home made quiches, but be quick, they sell out fast. There is a small cafe inside the shop, quite a feat considering its overall size. You can therefore stock up on some ham and cheese, and then sit down for a cup of tea and cake, or a pasty if you are really hungry! The prices are very good, and you can find bargains compared to the larger supermarkets.

I don't get it as this guy literally has a mini empire in Padstow, cafes, fish n chip sit it and take away, a cookery school, a coffee bar, a fish bar. There's nowt to stop him firing out tasty pasties by the score. So I thought no thanks matey if you can't be bothered then I'll not bother either. I did buy two bottles of beer labelled with Chalky his now deceased pooch but here again top dollar at £3.5 each and no discount for buying 6 or 12. There were lots of jars and tinned food too but least effort from Rick so no thanks chum I'll stick with M&S. it's some comfort to know he won't miss my trade.

There was a sign on the door saying they were being hosted by Rick's deli We were a little disappointed when there turned out to be no cooked food available - fish fried in beef dipping sounded exactly what we needed as a reward for our exertions. One of the cashiers was kind enough to recommend another place in town for fish and chips As a foodie, I was never going to leave without a browse round the deli although the lack of access to refrigeration meant we couldn't buy anything to take with us. It all looked delicious though the prices reflected the price expected of a high end deli in a tourist trap
