Central Beach Cafe in Fylde

Haven't tried it yet strawberry cheesecake lads fund charity / social enterprise on my bucket list

Just superb. The coffee is excellent as is the food . Also, a family- run cafe too which is even better

Good Coffees all-round, weather outside was foul so we only ones in there

Lovely food & staff. Always welcoming and dog friendly. Highly recommend.

Really nice cafe, clean and dog friendly inside. The hot dogs were really nice and the waffles that the kids had looked great 👍would go again.

Always my favourite cafe. There are many cafes in Lytham but this is the only one I go to. Great coffee, great food and great service . I had the breakfast bagel and it was delicious. My friend had the scrambled egg and that looked equally scrumptious too .

My wife and I visited on a day out to Lytham and we had s pot of tea with a piece of their homemade vegan Jaffa cake which is one of the nicest cakes we've ever eaten. It was a lovely place with a warm atmosphere. The staff were super friendly. 10/10 would recommend. Can't wait to go back

Great food, service and reasonable prices. Wonderful breakfasts, loads of bacon in the sandwich 🥪 Very dog friendly.

Coffee wasn’t coffee tast like burnt toast despite pay premium price for it The young lady tried to give me ice coffee instead Shocking 😮

The Cafe is always very busy and on occasions you may have to wait for a table. Food and staff are excellent

Dropped in for a quick break. Decent coffee, excellent cakes and very friendly service. Food sounded interesting but we didn’t try try it good place to go! Especially if you like dogs.

Visited today with my 3 dogs, after a recondition. Arrived for breakfast menu, plenty of to choose from. Also cater for your 4 legged friends. Had scrambled egg on toast with vine tomatoes. A little too runny for me but still tasty. Very clean inside, bright and cheerful, staff very friendly, note it is note waiter service, he have to go up and order, I say there for 5 minutes waiting to be served. Worth a visit ,and will have to go for lunch because told the homemade soup is delicious.

This has become our go to place for lunch on our visits to Lytham which are perhaps 2/3 times per year - the reason, extensive gluten free options. With a gluten free allergy it is rare to find somewhere that offer such an extensive range of gluten free options, 4/5 different cakes/pastries etc, 2 soups, gluten free bread for an array of sandwiches etc. The food if top quality, prepared to order and serves by friendly & attentive staff.

Excellent friendly service we have been many times and they also allow your well behaved dogs in

A great little find with delicious food & fabulous service. Will definitely visit again next time we’re in the area.

Nostalgic trip to Lytham , so glad we stopped at the Central Beach Cafe , lovely helpful staff and wonderful cake and coffee, would highly recommend.

Always my go to place when I need a coffee or tea. Brilliant service and great value for money. I had triple cheese on toast today too which was just scrumptious. See ya all soon

Myself and my friend went for lunch today, unfortunately we will not be going again. The reason why is we ordered a pot of tea for two. It was a busy weekend and the tea promptly arrived, the wait for lunch was approx 20 mins, which we didn't mind however, by the time it came our teapot had gone cold, we requested hot water to reheat, but were told that unless we paid for it they couldn't provide any. Now I have eaten in thousands of cafes in my lifetime but never had to pay for hot water. In fact, most cafes provide this without asking. We were considering dessert, however decided to find another cafe to finish lunch. Our fellow diners thought it was a joke and also others we spoke to. We live locally and visit Lytham regularly as do a lot of our friends, however, we won't be going into this cafe again. We are spoilt for choice in this area and will not frequent Central Beach Cafe. Very disappointed.

Great place to sit and people watch. Coffee is delicious, staff friendly and helpful. Never eaten here so can't comment. Sitting in the outside area on the side street is the best of both worlds. You can be outside but protected in a shower.

Amazing little cafe, great food and good prices. Staff friendly and helpful and dog friendly.

Recently visited with my youngest daughter for a mini "dinner date" she's been asking to go on.. safe to say we wasn't disappointed! She loved seeing all the well behaved pups on the tables around us and demolished a full plate of pancakes (which were superb btw, a must try!) Staff were all so great with my 5 year old too! We will definitely be back again!

Landed here not long after parking up on a Saturday lunchtime to satisfy 5 people aged between 4 and 80! Located on the main shopping street in Lytham this place had keen appeal and looked even better inside. We sat at outdoor tables hoping the threatened rain kept away. The 4 year old wanted pancakes and chocolate sauce (luckily on the menu for kids) and the 80 year old an Eton Mess Sundae to make up for their lack of food from the low budget accommodation they had been staying at elsewhere in Lancashire. Others had a biscoff toffee sundae, a meatball brioche, and a pulled pork brioche. The savoury dishes were OK and the sweet dishes more of a treat. Service was functional rather than friendly. Prices not too bad. Dog friendly and ideal for people watching.

Perfect place for relax, good prices, friendly staff and perfect selections of cakes, good prices for pot of tea or coffe, very nice decoration and very friendly

I should make an effort to go here more, the coffee is lovely, there’s lots of choice as I need gluten free and the service is always very good! Great location and dog friendly too

Lovely cafe in the heart of Lytham. Bubbly and vibrant atmosphere, dog friendly with warm welcome and pleasant service plus a delicious coffee. You can't miss it.

I really like this Cafe and have been several times.I was made to feel very welcome.The food and service were excellent. There is an excellent menu with plenty of choice .The Cafe itself is very clean and pleasant with plenty of seating.

Visited twice. Once for coffee and again for lunch. Great coffee and tasty lunch. Friendly and helpful staff. Quick service.

Great coffee. Great tea. Great location. Add to the mix of Great service and there you go : blissimo ! It's nice to support local.coffee shops rather than the usual.high Street chains

We went here yesterday as have been before as its so dog friendly for a cake.(cakes were nice) However the food yesterday was awful.Cheese on toast- cheese was burnt making the toast hard as rocks it was inedable almost broke a tooth. Husband couldnt finish the soup either as was so salty.The young girl took my full plate of food didnt even ask what was wrong no adult in site to complain too. So just left hungry and £25 short! Sorry to say won't be back!

Local coffee and cake instead of a chain. Great service and cost. Will go again.

Came here for lunch last week. Very busy but the staff were patient and friendly. Had a good lunch for less than a tenner and the coffee was excellent quality. Will definite come here again.

Always made welcome Dog friendly fabulous food and service

The service was shocking rude manager and the staff throwing OUTRAGEOUS looks in my direction the customer service was APPALLING and honestly makes me not want to EVER step foot in there again absolutely disappointed

Came in with our mini dachshund for lunch, the staff were absolutely fantastic with her (and us). The food was delicious, service was fast, and the staff were incredibly lovely! Lots of woofs from Dottie

Went for breakfast. Excellent food, great value for money.

Been here in the past but unfortunately on our visit today we felt like we were in a kennels! It clearly accommodates dogs which we've always been aware of but today it was horrendous. Dogs of all sizes everywhere. Staff obviously making a fuss of them too. To be honest we were disappointed and got out quickly and won't be back. It's ideal for dog owners but avoid if you're not!!!

Very busy, which is good, expensive cake £5 for scone n jam, unfortunately scone was stale and small. Would try something else another time.

We visited today 22/2/24 we had coffee and cake, my wife had cappuccino with hazelnut syrup and a raspberry and lemon scone. I had a black coffee and blueberry and lemon with white chocolate cake( possibly the best cake I’ve ever had) everything was amazing. The service was excellent and the staff made a real fuss of our dog even putting a photo of him (ace) on the wall of fame.

Fantastic service, great value food - and plenty of it. Lunch for grandparents and 1 year old granddaughter. Plenty of room for the pram. High chair provided. Small serving of scrambled provided, even though it wasn’t on the menu. Creamy garlic mushrooms on sourdough bread superb as was the chicken Caesar salad. Staff attentive throughout. A thoroughly pleasant experience. We will be back. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic place to grab a bite to eat. Great staff, fantastic menu, reasonably priced, and very dog friendly. 10/10 - Will be returning ASAP.

We only had a drink, the food certainly looked good tho. ( We were still full from our hotel breakfast ) Our dog Taz enjoyed her doggy breakfast tho and was happy to have her pic taken and go on the wall of fame. All the staff were great 👍 A refreshing change to receive such a welcome when you have a dog with you.

Really helpful staff. Thank you.

Wow what a lovely find Gluten Free, we had the lemon meringue pie, yum yum so tasty made my day , I forgot to take a photo, keep up the good work, plenty of choice gluten free range

Just sat in this lovely dog friendly cafe. Mexicana toastie was fabulous sauce on it was really spicy. Dog menu available and free biscuits too. Staff are really good even took a picture of my dog for hall of fame. Wondering if I have room for one of the great selection of cakes they have here. You will see me again 👍

I came in for a quick cup of coffee and had a nice sit down in this lovely little cafe in the center of Lytham. Good cup of coffee, friendly staff and overall decent environment.

Literally not much I can say apart from excellent. Dog friendly (my pooch bear is going on wall of fame) Food amazing and such friendly service well worth the visit would suggest to anyone.

Great place to eat meet chat very friendly staff excellent service. Would highly recommend 👌We had breakfast here and it was delicious.

A full varied menu of very good quality food, served by waiters and waitresses that are friendly and smile a lot which is very important to me, also dog friendly with their own menu, altogether an excellent lunch

Popped in for a coffee and some absolutely delicious cakes. Good gluten free options for my daughter who is a coeliac. Really friendly staff and very attentive service. Highly recommend!

Decent coffee and cake stop in Lytham.

Really nice atmosphere and food

This is a lovely place to visit, with the best cakes!! Always a lovely welcome from Izzy and Tim, great customer service. It's a great place to meet people as the tables aren't too close together and it also allows people to bring the pooches (who are catered for too) definitely worth a visit for breakfast, lunch, coffee pit stop whatever!

What a lovely warm atmosphere, friendly owners+staff. Food amazing. Prices reasonable. You've gotta visit if you're in Lytham.

This is a wonderful clean Cafe owners and staff are friendly and welcoming. This cafe is dog friendly as a dog lover it gets you talking to people. Food and drinks are reasonable priced which is good and the food is excellent. It's always nice to see this Cafe busy everytime we go in. Good Cafe worth a visit when you are in Lytham..

Not visited for over a year. Went in today. Seemingly new owners since end of last year Wow! Now the best coffee,bacon butty and atmosphere. Friendly owners and staff. Very clean. Wonderful display of tantelising food. Great welcome for our pooch Rosie . We will be back very soon and have changed our regular coffee stop from today.

Lovely catch up with an old friend. Cafe is really relaxed and dog friendly. Can highly recommend avo on toast and the soup. Lovely, friendly staff and excellent service. Thanks Izzy and Tim

Called twice at this cafe. First time for coffee and decided the next day to call for lunch. We had sandwiches and a pastie . All were good. Prices were reasonable .

Persian lemon cake was amazing ! Will definitely be back . Lovely coffee too

Great Cheese and bacon sandwich and scone with butter. Coffee always good. Quick service too highly recommended

As a coeliac this coffee shop was fab. There was a choice of 4 Gluten Free cakes and one was lemon meringue pie that I have not had for years and it was fabulous. If you can’t eat gluten or even if you can go here, you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend the Gluten Free lemon meringue pie!

Great place to eat and drink very friendly.

Lovely place with an interesting menu. Great service from the staff. Nice atmosphere. They cakes and shakes. Prices are very reasonable.

Absolutely fantastic place dog friendly food great staff great . Love how they have there own doggie menu

Absolutely fantastic place couldn’t fault it in the slightest. Thank you

Popped in for a quick lunch and coffee. Lovely place, food delicious and friendly people.

Called in on Sunday for a gluten free sandwich. They were very professional asking if choice or allergy, as it is allergy they said it would take about 15mins as they had to clean the kitchen area for my food this was fantastic that they did this. The food was lovely, great service and a lovely cafe thank you we will be back.

This cafe is amazing and would really recommend having gone to Apricot across the road initially. Fresh food great choices and delicious cakes . Will be back soon

Hands down the best coffee (caramel cappuccino) I’ve ever had. Amazing!! The Vanilla custard slice was lovey and home made, delicious. Thank you for a wonderful service.

Had great coffee and cake. Busy cafe, with a good selection of cake and drinks.

A fantastic alternative to the other big friend coffee houses. They do great food and the staff are amazing. Recommended!

What a fantastic little cafe in the heart of Lytham. We had lunch and the food was amazing and exceptional value for money. The staff are very friendly and accommodating... Best coffee in Lytham Plus they are dog friendly and our two dogs were treated...

Went in with two preschoolers who staff noted and commented on. At the counter had to wait for the main lady to take my order while 3 teenagers stood gormlessly about, doing nothing. Ordered two children's pizzas. No word that these might not be suitable...

Beautiful cafe, we sat on the balcony in the sunshine. The staff were lovely and friendly and we had a lovely meal outside. Cannot fault it!!

Lovely friendly staff who were very attentive, professional and efficient. Great to feel welcomed and a very enjoyable experience. The food was excellent as too was the coffee with full cream milk ( a rare commodity in cafes now) so thank you.

A great place to relax & have a coffee or a drink & meal etc

A wonderful place to have a coffee, bite to eat and chill, great staff giving great service in the heart of Lytham.

Lovely cafe. Great salads and milkshakes. Good value too. Will definitely be visiting again!

Just a lovley place to spend an hour with a friend for light lunch & coffee &, cakes, which have a great variety. Thankyou. Keep up the pleasant friendly atmosphere

Great food and coffee, excellent friendly service, and my dog is made to feel very welcome with a selection of dog-friendly food & treats. He loves this place so much that he tries to drag me in every time we walk by!

Sat outside on a lovely sunny day. Coffee and food very good. Would recommend. X

Coffee poor (flat white). Watched several coffees being made. Tamping missed out every time. Perhaps they've lost it. Under-extracted. Left it. According to the owner below, apparently they have the world's only 3 group-head integrated auto tamping espresso machine, rather than a staff training need! Oh dear

There’s a fair few places that are ‘dog friendly’ in Lytham, But this place is by far the dog friendliest place me and my four legged companion have ever been. Having been a few times now, every visit has been a pleasure. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and create a lovely relaxed atmosphere. The coffee has always been delicious, and the food fresh and tasty. Unique to this cafe is the dog section of the menu- small cheap platters of doggy dishes such as chopped up sausage or a small amount of scrambled egg, or the popular ‘puppicino’. A true mark of a dog friendly cafe, something to make sure that ‘side of the table guilty glance’ is satiated. With indoor and outdoor seating, a nice range of drinks, snacks and treats, I look forward to making this place a regular visit every time I take a trip to Lytham. A definite gem along the Lytham high street.

Very relaxing cafe ideally placed in the centre of Lytham

If you are thinking of going to cafe nero next door, take a leap of faith and head into this small business, its a hint of luxury! Popped in for coffee and a cake and i am so glad i did! A large soya milk mocha and homemade white chocolate and passion fruit cake. The price was excellent considering everything was home made. The service was fabulous and the atmosphere was delightful. I will definitely be returning!

Dog friendly café and great staff and atmosphere

Always a warm welcome and good quality fayre. Clean toilets. Superb selection of food and cakes. Perfect pit stop when in Lytham.

Visited yesterday while shopping in Lytham. What a lovely cafe. Polite, helpful, friendly ladies behind the counter, serving great food and coffee. We'll visit again.

Excellent service, food and cost. Recommended to all and dog friendly with a doggie menu 😋 😊

Dog friendly, friendly staff, lovely cafe, great food lots of choices for alternative milks for coffees, vegan and gluten free Options on cakes and food. Great location, highly recommend!

Very disappointing…. Ordered tomato and basil soup… just like a cup a soup (even granules of powder in the bowl) Watery and the half chopped basil leaf floating in the soup did nothing to add any flavour. Considering the price of £5.95 with a slice...

What an excellent place this is to eat in. A warm, friendly and enthusiastic welcome with a varied menu and enough choice for everyone. Certainly, the food we saw being served around us made a final decision difficult. It all looked so good. There was...

Amazing cafe with friendly service, you can bring your dog - they also do doggie sausages! We got avacado on toast with the chorizo and a jacket potato. Great place for a quick lunch!

Lovely friendly cafe. Fab menu, with some tasty looking choices. I couldn't decide. Great service. Nice decor Dog friendly too.

The number of dog friendly cafes in Lytham is quite limited. We have been past this cafe regularly on our Sunday afternoon walks with our two dogs but it has always been pretty full. Today we were lucky and managed to find a table. Excellent...
