Cafe (Closed)

Tubestation is the result of some big dreams and a lot of hard work. It’s been a space for good food, good coffee and good chats, ever since 2006.

Our cafe food is simple, hot and hearty, and all made right here in the Tubestation kitchen. Our menu includes gluten-free and vegan options. (You’re also welcome to bring your own packed lunch.)

Tubestation runs a pay-it-forward scheme, so if you do fancy a hot dish or a cuppa, come in, grab a ticket and tuck in.

We use Foundation coffee, a Cornish roaster that produces single-origin, traceable (and pretty delish) coffee beans.

Free Wi-Fi, big sofas, big wood burner, dogs welcome, half-pipe skate ramp. (The ramp can get noisy, so bring some earplugs if you’re after a quiet and productive day on the laptop!)

Opening Hours

Over the last few years, the café at Tube station has sadly become increasingly unsustainable. As a church, we have made a difficult decision to close the café here in Polzeath for the foreseeable future.
This provides us with the space to pause and reflect on how best to serve the community.
We are looking at other ways to use our lovely building for community events or groups.

Currently please join us on Wednesday & Friday 10-12 for our toddler group!
