"Arguably the best brunch in Falmouth! Amazing choice for vegetarians and every l thing was delicious and perfect portion size. Great kids menu too. Super tasty potato bite sides. Perfect coffee, hot chocolate and incredible fresh lemonade. Lovely friendly and helpful staff, with a wonderful harbour view - couldn’t be better! :)"

"What a hidden gem?! We were looking for a spot of breakfast with the dogs after a run and came across Zest. Lovely hidden courtyard with harbour views. Flat Whites were excellent, as was the delicious breakfast - I had shrooms and halloumi and my wife have sweetcorn fritters. Both were awesome. Staff were great too. Highly recommended"

"First visit to lovely Falmouth, and stumbled upon Zest. Lovely friendly team working on Sunday, thank you for being so nice. The best Pastrami toastie with the nicest side salad. My partner had the fish wrap which he declared was also the best he’d ever had, well done and thanks to the kitchen guys. Lovely harbour views from the quiet garden. Will visit again, and again…"

"It’s very centrally located and the staff are lovely. The ambience is nice and the seating was comfortable. There were lots of vegetarian options and I’d recommend the mushroom toastie. However the eggs Benedict were incredibly dry and not very good leading to 4 stars."

"The absolute best korean fried chicken I've ever had, crunchy + saucy!! If you've ever tried to make it yourself, you know it takes time and skill. The batter, hot oil, sauce, no thanks haha Could tell that they're recipe and exceqution is on point. (Sorry the pic is rubbish, I didn't expect for it to be that amazing ) Also had a matcha latte, which was lovely. Great service, location and well priced food. Favourite brunch spot in Falmouth so far!"

"An absolute must. While visiting Falmouth for the first time from the States, I stumbled upon Zest -- as well as its owner, who was hosting a private event to commemorate the opening of its patio. I must have looked very lost because he, his wife and his friends invited me in to join them wherein I was able to sample the menu and the drinks -- all while enjoying the company of a lovely group of people. (I could not stop raving about the smoked butter with Camembert...) For me, it provided the memory of a lifetime, and if nothing else, it only stands to highlight that the restauranteur's joie de vivre lives up to his restaurant's namesake..."
