My first visit here on recommendation of my friend and daughter who I was with. I was not dissapointed, had a large cappacino & coffee & walnut cake. My friend had Victoria sponge cake & tea, & her daughter had rocky road cake & tea. We also had a shortbread biscuit with our drinks. Friendly staff. Will definitely go back, when I next visit Tavistock.

The first thing you see at Karen's is a window full of marvellous cakes and desserts. On entering you realise that the place is a restaurant as well as a cafe. We went for a coffee and cake during a mid-week shopping trip, as the cafe is amongst the many interesting shops in Tavistock. The place filled up as we sat down so it is clearly popular. Some customers were clearly regulars. We had a cappuccino, latte, mince pie and shortbread. All items were delicious and we have made a note to return for a meal at a later date. The service was speedy and friendly. Will definitely be a regular whenever I shop in Tavistock.

I went to Karen's on the recommendation of friends and I wasn't disappointed. The chilli con carne was very nice and the treacle tart was superb. All homemade. Compliments to Karen and her team. Well done and well worth a visit.

Called whilst shopping in Tavistock.
Superb service - very friendly and accommodating, nothing too much trouble and the staff were tuned in to the needs of the senior citizen customers, which was great to see.
A fabulous choice of freshly made cakes, which were all delicious.
Coffees excellent.
The main courses and lunchtime roasts looked very appetising.
Toilet clean.
No issues, a very good visit, would call again if visiting the town.
