I would have suggested going to Sullivan's Diner before boarding but I understand that's now closed.
What? When did that happen?  It's ALWAYS been open....(hasn't it)?

Sullivan’s is still trading, or at least was when I was in Penzance last week and are in the Penzance bus running day program as a sponsor of driver beverages
Mr Sullivan passed away a little while back, it closed for a few weeks then his daughter reopened it, I believe it’s hours are 7-3 niw

That might explain it, thanks for the clarification. My information is second hand from someone who tried to get breakfast there recently.

There Facebook says they didn’t open a few days in the snow (I understand they live in a rural village)
Normally 6-3 Monday to Saturday closed Sundays.
Interesting google says permanently closed. I’m in Penzance at the weekend so will have a look. Mid March I had one of their bacon sandwiches so it’s a recent occurrence

That's great news I've enjoyed the odd breakfast or two there and would be very sad to see it ending.
