About Hannafore Kiosk
On Marine Dr in Looe, Hannafore Kiosk is a self-service sandwich shop on the seafront with an outdoor seating area looking across to Looe island. Crab sandwiches and crab baguettes packed with crab meat are the recurring order, alongside cheese and onion pasties and toasties such as brie and cranberry. Milkshakes made with proper ice cream round out the counter, and scones are also on offer. Service works on a walk-in basis, with orders taken and collected at the counter. The seating area tends to fill up, particularly in the evening. Dogs are welcome, and dog treats are sold alongside the food. Free parking is available along the road.

Customer Review Summary
Crab is what reviewers return to most: crab sandwiches described as packed with crab meat, and a crab baguette called huge with an extremely generous portion. One reviewer would try the crab roll next time for its chunky, filling bread, and another calls the crab sandwich the best they have had. Close behind are the ice creams and milkshakes, praised as made with proper ice cream. Also named are a pulled pork baguette, a fresh mushroom soup with huge, cheesy croutons, a Brie and cranberry toastie, scones and cake. Staff are repeatedly called friendly, and the seafront setting with views across to Looe island draws praise, with a packed seating area on a Sunday evening. One reviewer suggests going early because it gets busy. The one complaint is a wait to be served and again for coffee and cake, with the kitchen seeming chaotic. In that case a member of staff noticed an overcharge, tracked the customer down and gave a refund.

“Such a humble friendly place, such a genuine ingredients. We had two tomato and cheese sadwitches, two teas, two ice creams and a cheese and onion cornish .they are so delicious. Cheese so fresh, tomatoes too. All just £26. Very reasonable price. Staff are so friendly. I cant help myself comparing my supper from Thursday at my favourite tv chef, Rick Stein sea food restaurant There was ubsolutely no difference in satisfaction, hospitality, ingredients and high quality. Both made us feel no matter where you go when you are travelling around and hungry..it does not matter whether dining at world famous chef restaurant or seaside simple sandwiches. There was lot care in the way those sandwiches made at Hannafore kiosk same quality as posh restaurant. Best beach in Cornwall coastal beach and best kiosk food and drinks with seating area. It is their hospitality at kiosk, quality and care in making such simple food made it so special. Rick please visit this place once. You agree with their food is fantastic,exceptional Highly recommend. Everyone who attends this beautiful beach go and visit..whether it is ice cream, your cake, scones, seafood sadwitches...humble jacket potatoes.. Beautiful view of St George's Island”

“Amazing gem of a place, perfect location and amazing food, in fact I'd go as far to say, this was,as its now eaten the best pulled pork baguette I've every had, by a country mile. Saved it to my favourites should we be back this way.”

“We visited in the 2nd week of June 26. Got there about 12pm . The weather was warm and overcast . We Easily got a table outside with a nice view across to Looe island. There is free parking space along the road. We chose the crab sandwiches as we heard that the reviews were good, and they didn’t disappoint. They were packed with crab meat and very tasty . I would probably choose the crab roll next time as the bread was quite chunky and filling. We would definitely recommend!”

“A great find. A wide range of food, prepared fresh and was very tasty. Nice, friendly staff too. We got there around 6pm on a Sunday and the seating area around it was packed! Will go again, for sure.”
