Cliff Top Cafe in North Norfolk

We had a fruit scone sourced from outside cheese toastie both not good pot of tea for two £17 .25 I don't mind paying but at these prices I expect quality food this is far from it They are the only cafe around so they obviously don't care.

We received a wonderful welcome when we arrived at the Cliff Top cafe on a rather grey day. My 101 year old mother was given a very capable helping hand and made to feel at home by a very friendly member of staff, and the dog was also warmly welcomed. Lovely large pots of tea - the Earl Grey was delicious - and a good range of cakes. And the lunch menu looked very promising, so we will be back.

Lovely restaurant with lovely staff. Great views and dog friendly and most importantly the food was excellent! Especially the apple tart!

This cafe is in a fabulous location in Overstrand with views of the sea, there are very few other eateries close by, so it’s often busy, but its badly let down by the quality of food, £13.95 for an English breakfast that was greasy, undercooked chewy bacon and cheap ingredients in fact nothing about it was good A bit over the top on the dog theme going on too .

Only come here if you want unfriendly staff, cheap bread and condiments, badly cooked bacon, and spend £23 on two of these sandwiches and 2 cups of tea. We declined paying an extra £5.50 for a slice of cake..

Stopped here for coffee as part of a walk from Cromer and back. Welcome break in the warm on a very cold and windy day. Nice coffee, good service. Clean toilets.

Lovely little cafe. Great walk along the cliffs from Cromer. Had tea with scones, jam and cream and it was lovely. Dog friendly as well. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

We were walking part of the Coastal Path & in the vicinity of this cafe so called off for coffee & cakes one afternoon. It was a busy cafe, with quite a number of tables inside as well as a few outside. There was a pretty large menu with both hot & cold food on offer. Our coffee & cakes were really very nice…it looked like the cakes were homemade. Flat white coffee is excellent!! The staff are very pleasant, efficient & helpful. It gets busy & expect to queue because it seemed like customers ordering hot food did so at the checkout rather than at the table.

Called in for tea and cake with a centenarian and we were so well looked after. Delicious bakewell tart and best ever amazing pecan pie. We brought some to take home. And we'll be back for more.

We haven't been in this cafe in a few years and were meeting some friends. We were pleasantly surprised that it is so much bigger and brighter with a very nice menu for meat eaters and vegetarians. Lovely range of cakes too. Staff were very friendly. Dogs are also welcome and are given a dog biscuit. The food we had was very nice and arrived quickly. We would like to take some more friends who are vegan but unfortunately there are no vegan options on the menu. Maybe a vegan breakfast and soya milk for tea/coffee would be a nice addition o your nice menu and we would then become regulars.

We walked over from Cromer for a spot of lunch. Being out of season and midweek, the cafe was relatively quiet. We both ordered pie of the day, which was steak and kidney, an old English favourite and mugs of tea. Our food was brought tout suite and was delicious, just what the doctor ordered! We have visited this cafe many times and have always had a warm welcome, whatever time of year. The food has always been high quality and the specials varied. We would recommend this cafe to anyone.

Fantastic cafe offering a wide range of food and drink. Very dog friendly. Inside and outside seating available. After you've huffed and puffed your way up from the beach, the cafe is gladly received. We had tea and cake while admiring the views. Just the ticket!

We had a great visit - we have been before on a previous holiday - some came back to buy fresh crab nearby and some lunch. The home made soup was really lovely and a good helping. We sat outside in the warm autumn sunshine and the staff were helpful and accommodating.

Not as good as it use to be, overpriced and not particularly good quality. A slice of cake £5.50 and small Latte £2.95 and I mean small, more like a very small tea cup and wasn’t even a properly made coffee just push button machine, which didn’t taste particularly nice. I know prices have gone up but, compared to everywhere else we’ve been it’s a complete ripoff.

We arranged to meet with friends for lunch and one of the party is gluten and dairy free. The menu was varied and catered for dietary requirements. The food was of an excellent standard and did not disappoint - the view out to see was great. Dogs were allowed and dog treats and chews were available to buy.

A great cafe with lovely food, including very nice breakfasts and cakes. A good selection for vegetarians. Also offers lots of treats for dogs, who are welcomed with open arms. Our dog particularly enjoyed the doggie sausage followed by a dog ice-cream.

Apart from eating with a view, the food was beautiful. I had fresh crab sandwich which was outstanding, hubby had jacket potato with prawns. Dog lovers. Great local artists on walls. Plenty of outside seating. Off the track from other coast resorts but well worth the visit! Big carpark nor cafe. Definitely would return

The title says it all. We aren't exaggerating, look how many brekkie reviews we've done. Friendly, fast service, even though the place was busy. The quality of yhe ingredients shone through. Highly recommended and we can't wait to get back.

Discovered this gem today. Just wonderful and friendly, a place we could go with our dog. The food was outstanding. The best chicken curry we have for a long time. Welcome and friendly service. See you next year on our holidays.

Be careful if you have a nut allergy, all the cakes (even the apple pie) except for a scone, had nuts in or on them. Disappointing after the walk from Cromer!

The young lady who was serving was extremely rude, and the children's fish fingers where grey and not fit to eat, even my dog turned his nose up. Very poor

We visited here for breakfast on the 1st day of our recent holiday. We were made very welcome as were our 2 dogs & we enjoyed a cooked breakfast with cups of tea & the dogs enjoyed some tasty treats. It's a regular stop for us when we're in the area.

Ordered bacon sandwich and BLT sandwich, White processed bread and undercooked bacon, poor value for money. What made it worse was the fact they put undercooked hot bacon in the BLT sandwich which made the lettuce and one slice of tomato soggy! Never again .

Popped in for a lunch. Was well pleased in all presentations and fried breakfast.. stall nearby sell fresh crabs and lobsters..also v good.

Very friendly cafe right on the sea front which we visited every day of our holidays. Clean toilets, plenty of seating in and out and VERY VERY dog friendly! Our dogs loved the doggy sausages. Although we didn’t have one the cooked breakfasts looked very...

Lovely views . Low quality tea bags and coffee at a high price , same price elsewhere real tea leaves in a nice pot , wanted a scone and cream , scones bought in and stodgy, cakes overpriced . Staff manager rude and begrudging service...

Have used this cafe over many years under varying ownership, but have to admit it is not as it used to be. The coffee was luke warm and the cake well overpriced at £5.50 a slice!

This is a lovely spot to stop and have a bite to eat when exploring this part of the coast. Food is cooked well with generous portions and a good range of options on the menu. Dog walkers are welcome too.

A great cafe overlooking the sea, good cakes, good tea and my dog loved the doggy burgers. Very dog friendly and a bargain!

This is roughly our fifth visit to this lovely Cafe in the last two years, always a nice welcome, a good selection of snacks, meals and cakes. Speedy service at a reasonable price in a lovely location.

This is such a lovely cafe - the staff are knowledgeable on the products, the chef brings the food to the table himself and the food tastes great! Perfectly cooked eggs, delicious cake and locally sourced ingredients - this place was great! We'll definitely be...

I had really been looking forward to visiting and getting a crab salad. I was so disappointed. The crab was dry and tasteless, the salad looked like something from the 70s and everything was covered in raw onion. Really wouldn’t bother again and certainly wouldn’t...

We were staying at Shoal cottage next door to the cafe ( I can highly recommend Shoal cottage) so this cafe was so handy for us. They have a varied menu so there’s plenty to choose from. My hubby and my mum had ham, egg...

Just awful it’s here for tourist who only call in once food was cold with no taste but very expensive staff were unfriendly with no words from them . I cannot think of any plus points . I generally only post positive revues but these...

We've been visiting this cafe for many, many years and will not be going again. We've never had such a horrible breakfast. The food was tepid and undercooked, we fully expected to suffer food poisoning as a result (thankfully we didn't).

Sunny outdoor tables in a good spot, and very dog friendly. Serves a varied menu of good food for most tastes. Popular place.

The selection available is excellent but I opted for the “The Big Vegetarian Breakfast “ which was excellent. The staff were friendly without being over powering, and views out to sea stunning. This is also a #dogfriendly place too and there were well behaved owners...

This popular cafe is situated overlooking the sea and has outside and inside seating. It is dog friendly so lovely to see lots of furry friends there too. We got seats inside and enjoyed soup and sandwiches with hot drinks. Lots of choice on the...

First time visiting Overstrand a lovely area to visit. We had breakfast at Cliff Top Cafe, how disappointing, breakfast wasn’t even hot ordered sauté potatoes which was overcooked. Then they brought over the second lot, which was undercooked.

Overpriced, small portions and bland food! Slow service and miserable staff! Won’t be going back again.

I usually manage to find a positive if I make a review. So yes, great location. But have to agree with those who have already said that this cafe is overpriced for mediocre food and we are yet to receive a pleasant word or welcome....

Popped in for a quick coffee and tea after a chilly beach walk. The staff were lovely and the variety of doggy treats were outstanding! Great cafe for dog owners.

Super location facing the sea. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food always delighted and the many paintings and references to dogs amused. Quirky good value.

Dropped in after a walk and picked up some cakes to take away. Friendly service, fair price and the cakes were very good.

Had a lovely time here after a long walk on the beach with our dog. Atmosphere was great ,with lots of happy dogs sitting around enjoying their little £1.20 burgers for dogs, fab idea. Staff very friendly, coffee and cakes very good, main meals are...

Lovely Breakfast here on a cold February day. Nice warm welcome, good food and a lovely pot of tea. It’s dog friendly and the views are wonderful. I’ve been here quite a few times and never disappointed!

We’ve walked past this place loads of times but it started to snow so we pooped in. It’s small inside, the tables are closely packed, but the big window affords a marvellous sea view vista. The menu has the usual cafe fayre, we opted for...

Very good choice of freshly made hot and cold food and drink,homemade cakes available at the counter .Wonderful view from all the tables. Enjoyed a nice hot coffee on what was a cold and blustery coast path walk

Would never go back. Me and my partner had 2 x vegetarian breakfast and two mugs of tea. What a waste of 26 pounds we never hardly eat any. The sausages were cold. The potatoes were raw. Mushroom was out of a tin. Tomatoes seen...

As a new member of the Norfolk County I have tried numerous cafes in the area amd on top of that I am a chef with 20 plus years experience. I have had the breakfast, casserole, sandwiches, the best Fish and chips going and some...

We stopped here today, for a coffee after walking the loop from The Sea Merge along the road down the slope along the promenade and up again by the Cliff stop cafe. We were really looking forward to our coffee, and what a disappointment the...

Visited loads of times over the years. Always a warm welcome for us and our little dog. Great menu and the food is always good. Full breakfasts, eggs, toasties, hot chocs, big mugs of tea, really good service. Food is always hot and the location...

My husband and I always choose this cafe after a walk, we find the food reasonably priced with great attention to detail, how it is served, generous portions, good variety of meals/snacks, a cosy, welcoming place.

Friendly staff with helpful tips on what to see. Stunning location and excellent breakfast food. Clean and bright and very dog and child friendly. Excellent

Me and my husband stopped off for lunch, we both had the homemade soup which was delicious. The lady serving was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely be stopping there again 😀

Superb ‘full English’ breakfast. I’ve been a few times, and everything is always cooked to perfection. The biggest breakfast option is about £11, but it’s definitely worth the money. If you’ve walked (or ran) along the coast path for any distance, you owe it to...

After a great walk from cromer what a fantastic & welcoming cafe . Large breakfast please & a great selection of fresh cakes .

Lovely position. Good choice of food. Breakfast served all day. Lovely friendly staff. Nice selection of dog treats on sale in cafe as well. A surprise find and a lovely place to sit and enjoy the glorious autumnal sunshine after a stroll along the beach.

Popped along the coast today and dropped into the cliff top cafe. what a lovely little find, the menu was good and offered something for everyone, the child's menu was enough for us. The place was well staffed and all very helpful. Lovely pictures and...

Nice cafe but expensive two sandwiches and two cold drinks just under twenty quid ! Nice enough and it was busy so obviously popular just thought bit over priced for two sandwiches that didn't come with any sides

We enjoyed eating breakfast here several times during our stay in overstrand. Pros - good variety of options on the menu - gluten free options - very dog friendly - really clean nice toilets (ladies) - male waiter really friendly - THE VIEW and location...

Fairly expensive , but maybe to be expected because of lovely location. Was a bit disappointed with the cooked breakfast with tinned tomatoes and tinned mushrooms - fresh tomatoes and mushrooms are just as cheap and easy to prepare. Morrisons in Cromer even manage to...

My son and I have visited cliff cafe for Breakfast the last 2 days, really good service, not cheap but wow! Well worth the price big Breakfast! Really nicely cooked. We'll done!

When I looked at the menu, I thought the prices were a bit high but when the food arrived I knew where that money had gone. The food was delicious and the portions were great. The staff were friendly and the service was good. I...

Stopped here for brunch before heading into Cromer - a sausage bap and hash browns = just what I needed! The staff were friendly and the food arrived quickly. There were plenty of places to sit and dogs were welcome outside. There seems to be...

Went to this cafe today with some friends. Asked for the menu at the counter and the lady running it gave me a rude comment. Asked if they did curry sauce and see was incredible rude and said ‘we’re not a chippy you’ll have to...

Friendly attentive staff. Fantastic setting. Had hot drinks and cakes which were very nice. The parking is very limited in the village, but only a short walk from the cafe

Fantastic sea views front this very dog friendly cafe. Great staff, good food, big choice, lovely ice cream. Food is on the pricey side but if your budget is not too tight you’ll love it. Or just go for a cuppa!

Called into this cafe today, we are on a 5 day caravan break in the area but we are from Norfolk. Was going to have a breakfast originally until I looked at one being served for £10.00. It looked nothing special, 2 tinned tomatoes, and...

Went on Sunday morning and got a table outside. The positives first, this is dog friendly and has a good view of the sea. Queued for a good ten minutes a the till to order. Ok I thought I’m in no rush. Ordered cooked breakfast,...

Very nice spot for a cafe and to be honest thats where the three rating is earnt Very ordinary sandwich on sliced bread from the packet and jacket potato with cheese and coleslaw ok but not over £20 worth!!!

Lovely spot on the coast, great views and extremely dog friendly. However, the food is average at best and very overpriced- basic sausage and onion sandwich, a bacon and mushroom sandwich plus 2 coffees and a dog treat came to £21.

Called in for lunch. Such a friendly place. The staff were most welcoming and really seemed to care. Our dog was made to feel at home too. We were lucky it was a lovely day so could enjoy the views from outside. Good menu with...

My son and I were in Overstrand to collect a car and visited the quaint "Cliff Top Cafe" for some lunch whilst we waited for the car to be ready to pick up. The cafe is in a great location at the top of the...

We walked from Cromer to Overstrand and were grateful to discover this gem once we climbed the steps to the top of the cliff. Very welcoming and they had a great menu. You can sit either indoors or outdoors and the panoramic view is stunning.

Eaten here a few times, always very good. Had the large breakfast the other day, very good produce used and cooked to perfection. We were told it would take half an hour to receive our order as they were very busy. We received the food...

Excellent breakfast with a stunning view. The cafe is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. Very friendly staff.

Lovely cafe , good clean facilities & toilets , indoor and outdoor seating in a lovely location, service was quick and cheerful. The menu was extensive from breakfasts to cakes and snacks and main meals . Bacon & egg sandwiches were delicious.

Stopped by for Tea and Cake, best cuppa i have had all holiday, tasty cakes. Food looked fab. Utterly doggy mad with treats fir them. Highly recommended.

We are local and use the cafe several times a month. The owners and management must be congratulated for the conscientious way in which they run the business, especially during these extraordinary times. Standards of hygiene, service, safety have been maintained to the highest levels,...

I asked to swop a fish finger for lobster in my sandwich. They said no. Lovely food, reasonable prices, great service, super clean, fabulous views.

Walked from Cromer for breakfast. Very friendly service and and good food. The place is very dog friendly, I think they got even better service than we did! Will retunr when I am next in the area.

The cafe is in a prime position overlooking the cliff at Overstrand but the experience is marred by grumpy staff. The cheese scones were poor - too much baking powder perhaps and fell apart when one tried to butter them. I wouldn't go back for...

I am quite picky at times but this is a lovely dog friendly cafe. Spotlessly clean and did nice scones & coffee. I had similar at 2 NT cafes this week and this cafe was definitely better.

Stopped at this Lovely little cafe, which was just round the corner from our hotel for a quick snack. The staff were so friendly and helpful with recommendations of the area, which we took up & thankful for that.

Is on the walkers trail from Cromer, cliffs and looping back. Got coffees, sandwiches, scones, and chips. Cost same as if I'd gone to a restaurant for a meal. £3.95 for a small bowl of flaccid oven chips; £8.95 for a crab sandwich

Good menu choice and reasonable price. Friendly service. Clean and tidy. Ample seating inside and out.

Decent cafe serving decent food and amazing views. Just don’t have the orange juice. £2.50 for a small paper cup (we were eating in) and considering it wasn’t fresh it was concentrate they are making one heck of a profit on that alone (approx 600%...

Lovely friendly staff. Pretty cafe with a view over the sea and a wide range of food on the menu. Also dog friendly.

This cafe looks lovely and benefits from a fantastic location with a bit of a captive walkers market. However we were really disappointed at the quality of the food as it was expensive. We had no problem paying more for a sandwich as long as...

This place is very overpriced for poor coffee and tasteless cheese scones, very disappointed after reading such good reviews.

We had a party of 13 spending a weekend away for a family birthday and deiced to visit the Cliff top café before our journey back home. Everything was absolutely perfect ,hot, good quality food served by very friendly staff, out of a group of...

We visited the cafe for our third visit this weekend, and once again it didn’t disappoint. Firstly I would just like to say how happy and accommodating the staff are, they really make it a lovely atmosphere in there. Fabulous fish finger sandwich for me,...

We visited this lovely little cafe twice during our stay in Overstrand - on both occasions we found the food tasty and wholesome, the staff friendly and attentive. The name of the cafe gives a big clue on its location and the wonderful views. We...

Had a lovely breakfast overlooking the sea - really good, great selection and not greasy. Very friendly and good selection of cake

On our walk to Cromer, we stopped here for a breakfast. Freshly cooked, proper sausages, great fried bread but not greasy. Loved the breakfast here and the friendly welcome and service

stopped off for a coffee and a large slice of Norfolk fruit cake which was superb very tasty and moist, my wife had a slice of gluten free apple crumble cake which was also excellent and both very welcome after a long walk.

We walked here from Cromer especially to have a bite to eat, only to find it closed for a break which wouldn’t have been a problem if you had updated your website which states open 7 days a week! Very disappointed.

What a lovely find today! From the moment we walked in until we left it was a great experience. Great menu, lots of choice but not overwhelming. Great location, reasonably priced and hot chocolate to die for! And very friendly happy staff!!

Its quite amazing how busy this café gets with day trippers. The food and beverages are totally overpriced They know they have no competition. Coffee is £3.50 out of a instant machine, meals are restaurant prices, the whole place has little atmosphere. On a bright...
