The food was great, definitely one of those places where a camera is almost a requirement the views of the ocean are amazing. They are dog friendly too. There is a car park nearby but some of the roads are one way only or very tight.

The food is all right, it’s in the good location, central of the Dale village, it’s also right next to the water front of Dale beach. No parking next to it, but there is a public parking just 2 minutes walk away. The staff is very friendly, the service is good and pretty fast. It’s very nice to seat outside under the sun. There is also a small gift shop, a grocery shop and also sell ice cream.

Beach side cafe with plenty of outdoor seating. Food was better than expected from a café and service is great too. Happy to recommend for drinks, snacks or full-blown meal. Food and a drink comes to about £18 per person

Had the bacon baguette, one of the nicest we’ve ever had. The baguette was lovely and fresh. Cooked to order and as they were busy had to wait a little while, but with that view and on a sunny day, did it really matter! Didn’t have the full breakfast but saw the ones being served and they looked lovely. Will definitely try one next time.

Great lunch stop. Food was great - prawn sandwich and chilli jacket potato! Decent selection of beer for a reasonable price. Great to sit looking at the sea - recommend!!

Nice menu and food. Service a bit odd though. Teenager on the till taking orders literally had no idea about the menu except what she could see on her iPad. Also food brought to table outside but a curt "cutlery and sauces are inside" slightly spoils it?
