Rainbow's End
This psychedelic cafe sums up the spirit of Glastonbury, with its all-veggie food, potted plants and mix-and-match furniture. Tuck into homity pie or a hot quiche, and follow up with a scrumptious homemade cake. There's a small patio out back.

Archie Brown's
A cosier wholefood caff you couldn't hope to find. Archie Brown's has been serving Penzance's earth-mothers and artsy crowd for years and shows no signs of flagging, with stocked-up counters full of crispy salads, veggie quiches and carrot cake.

Café Irie
Run by surfers for surfers, this cafe's famous for its coffee and hot chocolate (just the ticket after a morning in the ocean swell) plus veggie wraps, piping-hot jacket spuds and gooey cakes. The decor's cool, too: vintage vinyl on the walls, multi-coloured plates and coffee mugs, chalkboards scrawled with specials.

Blas Burgerworks
This pocket-sized burger joint has a big reputation: sustainable sourcing, eco-friendly packaging and lots of wacky burger variations have earned it a loyal following. Traditionalists go for the 6oz, 100%-beef Blasburger, while veggies might plump for a haloumi stack or a ginger, coriander and chilli tofuburger.

E Pellici
There aren’t many reasons to recommend a stroll down Bethnal Green Rd, but stepping into this diminutive, but larger-than-life, Anglo-Italian cafe is one of them. You’re likely to be met by a warmer-than-average greeting as you squeeze onto a table among an amiable collection of East Enders. Opened in 1900 the wood-panelled caff is bedecked with museum-quality original fittings. Breakfasts are large and sustaining and the traditional English and Italian dishes are certain to satisfy the heartiest of appetites.
