    Overall it's a great cafe. But it's just a bit second place in almost everything. Food was great, but not fantastic, good menu, but not amazing. Seating and cleanliness was great, but not super. (Scenery was fantastic). Prices not bad, but not brilliant either. Staff, two were great, 3 were just awful. Incredibly fast service, too fast suggesting microwaved meals. Lots of inconsiderate walkers dragging mud and sand inside, thinking they own the place, acting very selfishly. Building outside looks good but needs some TLC. Very busy place. Recommended it if your nearby.

    Great breakfast, Manx kippers and toast grilled to perfection, Pam had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. The only downfall is the coffee, but we'll with a visit

    Nice beach café just behind the sand dunes. Loads of outside tables- it can be breezy - where dogs (like mine) can accompany owners. Watch out for the cheeky birds which fly onto tables if you don’t reproach them! Great food and drinks. Ice cream as well, even dog ice cream! We had Penang Curry (very tasty said my wife) and Veg Chilli (maybe a tad bland I thought but a nice pint of Italian beer rescued it 😉 ) We regularly visit here on fine days.

    Great place for a lunch on a sunny day outside,or inside if it's cooler. Staff are helpful and friendly although it is a busy place and attracts all generations depending on the day of the week and time. There is plenty of choice on the menu and the children's menu is good quality food too. The café is licensed and serves a variety of hot and cold drinks. There is plenty of seating inside and out and a takeaway hatch for ice creams. Location is next to the beach and car park at the end of the promenade. Definitely worth a visit.

    Lovely little place to visit for a bit to eat or a tea and coffee. Good selection of food from cold to hot dishes served. Clean & well maintained, with ample parking, seating & toilets. Ice cream served through the little side window or inside in the cafe. Seating inside and outside is ideal on a warm day and great when caught out in the rain. Note: the parking in the designated spots for the cafe are free, some of the parking in the car park is pay as you go at the machine.

    After searching for an hour for a good cafe we decided to give this place a try from the amazing reviews, a few people said although expensive the food quality makes it worth it. I’d love to know what quality food they were given because the meat was like chewing a tire! My partner left his full meal after trying it. My child (4) also left his full meal. As it cost over £40 for 2 meals and a child meal, I decided to continue with mine. And couldn’t manage more than a quarter. We all felt sick as we left. The glasses we were given for our drinks were also absolutely filthy not just a few water marks, literal dirt. The chef should consider seasoning his meat and a good cooking lesson because a bland tire was not what I ordered. Would recommend sorting your food out or dropping your prices. Oh and please clean your glasses properly we haven’t long been out of a pandemic…

    Have visited a few times in the summer for ice cream. First time sitting inside. Had 2 x hot chocolate with Marsh mellows and 2 x small pckt of biscuits each. Pleasant inside. Plenty of light and views. Was quite busy, this was a Sunday in January. Would visit again, the atmosphere is alright. Staff keeping tables clean, which most Important for the customer and others watching, for cleanliness. Could of been a bit warmer inside.

    Best Breakfast I’ve had in a Long Time ! Proper Bacon And Sausages, eggs fried to perfection, really tasty, and a nice Big Pot of Tea to wash it down with ! Well worth every penny and fantastic views too !

    Stopped for lunch with a family of 4. Despite the poor weather outside, the cafe was busy. The food was good for everything we ordered despite it still being peak lunch hours. Nice location near the beach and the outside seating would have been very pleasant if the weather has remembered it was summer too.

    My boyfriend went to the beach cafe for our lunch. He ordered two ham salads for us both and it was not worth the price that it was. For £17.50, we given a box with 3 tomato’s each, the “salad” was only rocket nothing else. No lettuce etc it came with a couple of slices of pepper and cucumber that looked like it was on its last legs. The ham was soggy. The whole thing looked like it had just been thrown in the box with no thought behind it. Not worth it at all. Really disappointed with this considering all the great reviews but it wasn’t. Not worth the price we paid at all.

    I visited the Beach Cafe yesterday after a break of two years .The cafe was just as good as I remembered it.The food and service were excellent. There is a very pleasant atmosphere and I was made to feel very welcome. The menu is very good and the prices are reasonable. I will definitely be going back.

    I was here with a friend yesterday, the first time for me, not for my friend. We both had fish and chips. Only haddock on the menu, that didn't matter though absolutely delicious. Really crispy batter. There is access via a ramp as well as steps, there are toilets on the premises. There is an outside seating area as well, the staff are all very attentive. There is also carparking at the side of the café. Somewhere I can definitely recommend.

    Superb place for breakfast and afternoon cakes, ice-cream and coffees. The staff were brilliant and the breakfast excellent with lots of choice and all freshly prepared. We were there during school term time so it was relatively quiet. Highly recommended!

    My first visit to the area, and these lovely people started it off in the best possible way! I was greeted with an enthusiastic smile by someone who still upholds exceptional customer service! I got my drink super quick and I was surprised at how reasonably priced it was (this is during a cost of living crisis in 2023) The place was absolutely spotless, the toilets are very clean and well-kept and it was just a very, very pleasant experience all around. I can’t wait to tell my friends all about it!

    We stopped for a bit of lunch on a walk from Lytham centre as we have done previously and the quality of the food hasn’t dropped at all. We always opt for a bowl of soup (todays was Roasted Red Pepper and fennel) and it was excellent as always. It comes with two chunks of warm, fresh baguette and some butter. On this visit we also had some Apple Pie with custard which was equally delicious and a generous portion too. I can highly recommend a visit to the Beach Cafe.

    Fabulous place. Great varied menu - can recommend the ginger pudding & custard. A must visit place if you are ever nearby. All food coming from kitchens looked great. Lovely staff - pleasant & efficient. 5 stars.

    Excellent wee place for a bite to eat or refreshments. Outdoor seating too. Lovely views.

  • 5/5 Craig Stephen C. 1 year ago on Google
    Probably the best café in St Annes and because of that it can get busy and window seats are quickly taken. It is best to go with someone else to secure a table while ordering. All day breakfast served is a great idea. They had run out of scones when I was last here. Young friendly staff and the place is very clean. Door entrance is perhaps a little awkward for older clients and those with disabilities.

    Great location next to the beach. Free parking for cafe customers. Good range of food and drink on the menu at reasonable prices. Inside and outside tables and toilet's. Staff friendly. Food was really tasty and very good quality for the price. We had 2 big breakfasts, fish cakes and chips and the chicken and chorizo flatbread. All well presented, fresh, hot and delicious, we had a really great experience here. Thanks to all the staff, we'll come again.

    The food was exceptional and came out relatively quickly and the server( if i recall correctly was called Thomas) was one of the most lovely gentleman i have come across. He was able to give me and my friend Patrick a good chuckle.

  • 5/5 Matt R. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered a crispy chicken burger and chips, the chips are amazing, crispy, really chunky, good portion. The chicken on the burger looks a little small but that's because the bun was so massive, was very nice though. There was a 30 minute wait on food, because it was so popular, but it was well worth waiting for, unlike some unhappy customer who stormed out in a huff, deliberately spilling their drink, despite being offered a full refund and their food for free, they definitely missed out. I thought the staff couldn't have handled that situation any better, and that customer needs a reality check, everywhere is under staffed, people need to be more understanding of the impact of Brexit on the workforce (yes that is the real reason for staff shortages, not covid).

    Lovely little cafe in a brilliant location, both inside and outdoor seating. The food is nice and there is lots to choose from. The outdoor counter is great too so you can buy ice creams and head down to the beach afterwards.

  • 4/5 Lisa W. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff very polite and helpful. Food was ok, nothing special. Great level of cleanliness. Would return

  • 5/5 Claire C. 3 years ago on Google
    I have visited this cafe many times for ice cream and coffee. Today I also had their mini Veggie Breakfast which was lovely. Everything was cooked perfectly and served quickly. I have recommended this place to friends and will continue to do so. The arrangements for COVID have been well planned are are executed well by staff.

    Food good.ordered jacket potatoes with tuna. Plenty of salad accompanied them. Table was dirty with previous occupants Food on it. Place looks like it could do with a refurbished.

  • 5/5 Christine H. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely food, pleasant staff and a lovely view. We weren't rushed and had a lovely lunch and catch up. There was a good choice of options for pescatarians and vegetarians too.

  • 5/5 MrAustinblue 2 years ago on Google
    Freshly prepared food, great menu, friendly staff, sea side location, what is there not to like.

  • 5/5 Jean C. 2 years ago on Google
    Always make for here for lunch. We come a few times a year with the dog so have to sit outside at the picnic tables but there are plenty. The inside tables are usually full anyway as it's a popular place. I have fish and chips every visit and the fish is gorgeous. Toilet facilities are also available. Give it a go. You won't be disappointed.
