Light refreshments, tea and coffee are available at the Island Café. The restaurants and cafés also give you a chance to savor the freshest Cornish seafood.

However, all visits are subject to the weather and the sea conditions. You should wear sensible footwear during a visit since most of the steps are cobbled. For more information, please visit http://www.stmichaelsmount.co.uk/.
