    The place to view the best artwork created in St Ives is the Tate St Ives. Most of the paintings, sculptures and ceramics displayed within the airy, gleaming-white building date from 1925 to 1975, with specially commissioned contemporary works also on view as well as exhibitions. The gallery's rooftop café is one of the best places in town for a coffee and snack.
