About Café Roma
Café Roma sits on Mutton Cove in Plymouth, a cafe with seating set entirely outdoors and views across to Royal William Yard, Mount Edgcumbe, and the Sound. The menu runs to sandwiches, pasties, cakes, and ice creams, with tea served from Clippers and oat milk available alongside. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis, with no reservations to arrange. Food can also be ordered to take away for anyone continuing along the waterfront. Free parking can be found nearby, making it straightforward to stop without pre-planning.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return to Café Roma chiefly for the waterside views of Royal William Yard and Mount Edgecombe, enjoyed from the outdoor seating, which is the only seating on offer. Coffee comes close behind, with a latte and a lovely coffee blend singled out, alongside Clippers tea, oat milk and cakes, flapjacks, sandwiches, pasties and ice cream. Several describe friendly staff who serve with a smile, and one reviewer recalls two workers cleaning up a boy's scraped knees and handing over a plaster. It suits a dog walk, a stop after the Mount Wise lido or fishing off the pier, and a few mention nearby free parking and room for children to play. One reviewer wishes it stayed open later. The one sharply negative account comes from a visitor buying an ice pole for a lactose intolerant three-year-old godson, who says the server refused the sale once the intolerance came up, leaving the child upset even though the reviewer says the ice poles contain no milk. Most reviews close on the view and the relaxed drink beside the water.

“Cafe Roma is a great little cafe in the heart of Mount Wise. The coffees, cakes and all are just great. All served with a smile too. Whatever the weather, it’s in a lovely spot with plenty of outdoor seating.”

“I recently came to your cafe this morning to purchase a ice cream for my godson who is 3 years old.The lad offered me ice cream and I said he can't have that as he's lactose intolerant do u have ice poles he said yes we do and apon trying to purchase one he then refused to serve me saying g he can't sell me a ice cream if my godson has a intolerance. First of all it not his decision as to what he can and can't have. Secondly he can't refuse to sell an ice pole I had a very upset and distressed 3 year old because he wanted an ice pole which by the way was absolutely fine for him to have as they don't contain milk there made from ive and water and colouring I will be leaving g a bad review on Google”
