Cloe's Coffee Shop in Lewes

Came her today 1 September for lunch with family. Had to wait a long time for food . And when my food come it as rough. All do away we were waiting for food the girl and also how we were paying, even though we haven’t had our food I thought that was very rude .

The food is very nice and well presented the staff are friendly and helpful the atmosphere has nice music 1940s like the whit cliffs of Dover etc

Closes at 15:00 on Saturday Not 17:00 as displayed outside Lengthened to min 100 characters but they are not really wo . .

Nice guy serving. Although food too 45-60mins. Toasties not good. Soup and bagels nice. Very expensive for coffee, 3 apple tubers, soup,2 bagels with sausage £41. Food hiegene rating of 1. I persuaded people not to go into cafe whilst outside

Lovely soup and sausage bagels. Buy cheese toasties rubbish. Nice friendly guy who served us but food was taking between 45-60 minutes. 3 apple tizers, coffee, 2 toasties, 2 bagels with sausage and soup £41

Really nice good welcome nice food

Baked potatoes were delicious, although fries are something different.

Quirky themed cafe in Seaford. It is decorated in 1940s style with memorabilia and matching music! Staff are attentive and friendly. Amazing breakfast - big portions and very tasty! It is all freshly cooked so takes a while but worth the wait. It is cash only.

Chloes cafe provides a great breakfast, great service, great value. Went three times in our three day visit to Seaford.

I went there on recommendation from my husband who had been there through work. Amazing place staff very helpful nothing too much trouble. I ordered an omelette best one I have tasted in ages , vast menu everything cooked to order will definitely return

Step in this time machine to transport yourself back to an era maybe not missed but entertaining to partake in. The menu comes with a pre-ordained warning that service time can be slow due to the freshness of the food preparation. That was definitely apparent when my cottage pie with chips and peas appeared. After taking a spoo-forkful I was quite taken back by the flavours that took course it’s definitely the best pie I’ve had!

Fantastic place in everyway,place,food and service... Recommend it to anyone 😍👏✨😋🧡💐

Nice, homely atmosphere. The owners are really lovely and great company. The owner's father fought in WWII and he has a fantastic display of military uniforms and photos. Even the music is from that era, which was quite relaxing and enjoyable.

Visited today with family and we all agreed we have found our new favourite spot! The food was amazing, and all made to order from scratch. Mum had a cooked breakfast and every part was so fresh and such good quality! The service was second to none, and nothing was too much to ask. All the staff were amazing with the kids and happy to have a laugh with us adults also. The vibe is fantastic, and decor so special! Absolutely cannot fault this place, they truly deserve the five stars and more!!

Good old English food. Great value for money. Discount for locals!!

Sadly their claim to fame - 'best chips in sussex or free'. I had egg & chips today - the chips were soggy & tasteless.......😕🫣. Staff lovely, but not enough for a return me thinks.

We found this cafe purely by chance as our usual spot was closed. The decor is fantastic, decked out in WW2 memorabilia! Old war time music playing too - really loved it. I wish I'd discovered this place before my grandad passed away late last ye ar at 98 years old being an old war hero himself, I'm sure it would have meant a lot to him to visit. The owner was very accommodating and shared knowledge from some of the photos on the walls and the young girls waiting were also great. I so wanted to give a glowing 5 star review but the food just wasn't the best. The basic breakfast really is very basic! The sausage tasted like it was cheap and was if anything a bit under. I would return just for the surroundings and maybe try something else to see if the dinners are any better than the breakfast. If you're into military history then you really must visit.

Lovely food, great decor and lovely atmosphere it was well worth the visit to Sleaford for this.

What an absolute gem of a place in East Sussex ..excellent location in Seaford if you're walking the coast..South downs way 😊 Clean homely cafe food ans drinks fabulous but the young workers made us want to come back Lana and Leila your customer service skills were outstanding thank you so much you're a credit to the cafe!! I'm currently walking the UK COASTLINE for the RNLI and of the 3yrs 9.000 miles I've walked you are on my top list of eatery places I have visited.well done girls...well done cloes cafe.. my 3 of us had a fab time we had not seen each other for a while you made this reunion special ♥️

We found this lovely small cafe by accident today was our 2nd time we love the war time theme and the young lady who served us went out of her way with her service.we will defintly be coming in again to see you. Kind regards liz and mark

Lovely place to have Lunch/breakfast the waitresses are very polite and helpful. The food is to a high standard and cooked fresh and is quite reasonable in price... its a shame that its cash only but I don't really mind that, overall I'm pretty impressed I will be going back

No hot food except bacon rolls painini and sausage rolls pizza bread few choices of drinks very expensive for 2 hot Toasties cakes and a pizza bread and teas

I went to Cloe's Cafe today and it was a lovely experience. The staff were exceptionally helpful, kind and hard working. A brilliant little cafe!

Went here for breakfast and really sub standard , cheap sausages and bacon hard eggs really disappointed in place

My partner and I went in to Cloes cafe today for a much needed cooked breakfast and to say we were disappointed is an understatement. We waited well over 45 mins for our food to arrive and there were only two other tables in there who already had theirs so why the wait? When the food arrived it was shocking. The sausages tasted like cheap happy shopper sausages, the eggs were hard, hash browns soggy and really greasy and plates were swimming in beans. This was the worst breakfast we have ever eaten and needless to say, we will not be returning!

My wife and MYSELF had a lovely breakfast would have marked 5,all the food was hot except cold tinned tomatoes. Price very reasonable changed my toast for fried bread.young lady who served us was very jolly and very helpful pop in a must

Upon entry your greeted with a war themed cafe. Plug sockets covered in sauce and dust looking like they haven’t been cleaned since the 1930s, but I guess that’s the theme they are going for. Clearly indicates that it’s not fast food and you can expect a wait, well I can safely assure you that it blew my expectations as we waited 40 minutes for some chips. The portions weren’t exactly generous, suppose I got the full experience when I was greeted with rations. Considering it’s world war themed. Can’t believe I had to remortgage my house to pay for this. Wouldn’t go again if I was drafted.

Incredibly disappointed. This lovely cafe has a great vibe & good people. My mother & I ordered a roast dinner each. Mum specially requested *breast of chicken & I ordered lamb. We waited a good 40+ mins to receive the meals. Both of us were stunned by the plates served to us. My tablespoon of lamb looked like bits of shaved kebab meat that had been fried. Mum's chicken was 2 bits of thigh meat that looked dry as if microwaved. The portion size would good for a 10 year old. What was served was embarrassing to call a roast dinner with a price tag just shy of £15 each. Unfortunately, even though we were very hungry, paying £30 for that was a huge no, no. We found a really good fish & chip shop instead.

A very unique cafe, which we have recently discovered this year. We actually travel down from London as we love the unspoilt Seaford front and always eat here. A bit on querky side, but the food is amazing, very high quality products and plentiful. Sometimes you have to wait a while as everything is cooked to order, but no longer than you would wait in a restaurant and the food is definitely worth the wait. The young ladies at front of house at weekends work hard and make you feel welcome.

We called in to Cloe's, for a breakfast. Absolutely lovely little place. Food was really tasty and very hot. Thankfully there was a cash point just across the street as they only take cash, but that wasn't a problem. The young lady who served us was very nice and cheerful, and she cooked the food as well, so well done to her. It set us up for the day.

Lovely little nostalgic cafe. Simple, well cooke food and friendly staff.

Literally ticks all boxes food great, service great, atmosphere great. Love this place, when we have friends or family visit we always go here. Such a unique cafe with amazingly friendly staff a great food especially for the prices.

Great breakfast and plentiful and excellent double espresso. Clean tidy with friendly pleasant staff and service

We visited this cafe with our 1 year old daughter, myself, my husband and our neighbour and his son. All of our food was amazing, definitely recommend the all day breakfast (and the milkshakes are INCREDIBLE). The staff were so kind and offered the kids biscuits and chocolates free of charge which was such a sweet gesture. Really recommend this place, will definitely be coming again.

The food was very tasty, well presented and good value for money. If you like something different or like to hear music from the 1940’s then this is the place to come with memorabilia all around the cafe. The staff are so friendly and will take the time to talk to you and ask you where you’re from etc etc. it’s actually nice to go somewhere completely different from normal everyday cafes, very refreshing.

Lovely food, very friendly staff, world war 2 theme and very quaint. Here you get a proper breakfast!!! Definitely our new local. Alan the owner is great fun and also gave us a discount card for the next visit!

After sitting down reading the menu, noticed cash only. Not a problem as a couple of shops down is an ATM. I ordered a full English breakfast. The ingredients where good quality. Sausages very tasty. Had a coffee this also was good quality. The staff are very friendly, nice relaxing atmosphere will definitely return next time I’m in the area.

Me and My Mum Live going there just lovely fun and kind staff there and great food. Showing people great historic from the World Wars which is fantastic!!!! Also put up with me being cheeky hehee

Wonderful little cafe in Seaford. The staff here are really sweet and friendly. The decor (WW2) is really good, we feel as if we have gone back in time. Overall a nice spot for a quick lunch and drink!

I enjoyed what I had. Nur have had worse experiences were the veg wax not cooked very well at this cafe.

Food reasonable, but member of staff that served me was very abrupt. I asked for one breakfast item to be substituted, but wasn't allowed to select the replacement. Not sure I even got one! Will not be returning.

Lovely service and staff, with a nice atmosphere, and excellent quality food. The breakfast items are exceptional. Also love that they reward loyal customers. Recently discovered and will be returning many times!

Stopped by for coffee and breakfast. The waitress was lovely and welcoming towards us and our baby. The breakfast was delicious and the latte was one of the best I've ever had. They also offer a 10% discount on next visit for locals.

Dropped in by chance.. good chance!... Lovely omelette, great service, interesting WW2 memorabilia on walls and WW2 music in background...definitely be back there.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, clean and a great choice for breakfast. Coffee was great, food very good and plentiful. Highly recommended.

I fully understand the concept of WW2 Feature in this coffee bar. But I'm sorry to say this BUT The Toestie was not very nice BURNT on the outside. Causing the cheese to be overdone. I asked for a salad with the meal and recieved a salad garnish. The flooring looked filthy BUT worse to come Slatted tables were encrusted with dirt and old bread crumbs between the slats If I hadn't been with my friends I would have complained WW2 concept was good but I didn't want to experience it Sorry you let the side down

Really yummy food and affordable as well, the staff very friendly and helpful.

Lovely themed cafe ww2 decor is amazing lots of choice on the menu & everything prepared fresh so expect a bit of a wait but worth it in the end 😀 have to say lovely chips cooked the old fashion way. Friendly staff and well priced.

Always great food and service. Friendly staff, love the nostalgic music too

An adventure into a themed coffee shop... military memorabilia and remembering the heroes of the war.. friendly, with home cooked food..

The only cafe we stumbled upon after our windy hike along the seven sisters - and what a delightful surprise. The war themed decor, with an amazingly well-travelled owner truly impressed us. The coffee perfect, the chips even better (crispy on the outside and delicately soft on the inside). Highly recommend!

I have been there a few times. i last went Sunday 19th march. 2023 to have a breakfast. the staff are very polite and friendly. the food is very tasty they look after their customers. the staff are well sociable.i recommend the cafe to others.i will always go back because they are polite thankyou so much for your hospitality See you soon

Great atmosphere with nostalgic memories of the good old days.....

Great little cafe , a step back in time . Lovely lunch , attentive staff would certainly recommend . Menu that suited all and good value.

We are always delighted to visit Cafe Cloe’s. We enjoy English home made traditional cooking with large portions of vegetables, a choice of roasts, homemade pies, full English breakfasts, omelettes etc. traditional homemade puddings and cakes. We accept that waiting is part of the service at Cafe Cloe’s as microwave cookery is not part of what they do and everything is cooked freshly and to order. Whilst waiting we thoroughly enjoy unlimited pots of tea with a warm and friendly atmosphere and service, whilst listing to music from the 1940s, Vera Lynn etc and enjoying the ambience of this 1940s cafe/restaurant.

While searching for a cafe in this area, you seem to first fine Evina’s cafe, but then you stumble onto this little coffee and food place. I never found Evina’s but in my search for a good coffee I found this place. Not the coziest or trendy atmosphere, but the coffee was good. Nice and friendly owner - had a nice chat.

1940 themed cafe that looks great. However in our visit it seems that the chef didn't turn up. Anyway 2 simple toasties took 40 mins to turn up. What was annoying was that other customers who came in after us got their orders first, some which included orders of chips. The toastie when it arrived was very well filled and tasty. But not worth £7.95 each. Shame but won't be back

Food is good , bottomless tea, friendly staff . Interesting way to chill , eat , drink and be merry .

Ordered English Breakfast after waiting 30 minutes for my breakfast asked if it was nearly ready said it was just coming only to wait another 15 minutes. Also overpriced £6.50 for a breakfast consisting of one sausage, 1 slice of bacon and 2eggs and beans....

From the music playing, to the decorations on the wall, the feel of this cafe is brilliant. Food was very tasty and service top tier. Couldn’t recommend more 👍

Visiting from Adelaide, Australia and decided to try the place out after my father recommended it. First time had a small eggs on toast, very well done. Second day the full English and I was not disappointed. The main part is the service, lots of...

Have visited this place several times because it's so good. Love the ambience, the music, food and the service by the staff are wonderful. They cater for all tastes and adjust to dietary needs. Thank you for a great experience.

Unique cafe with a World War 2 theme. The decor, the memorobilia and even the music all from the 1940s. Good food and coffee and friendly service.

The food is excellent and the owner is really lovely and welcoming. You have to try the chips, but everything on the menu is delicious!

Another gem we have found. Inside is war/history decor so much to look at. Menu is extensive but you will find lots of things you like, only problem is making a choice 😉. Food was tasty and hot,and reasonable price. Restaurant and toilets were clean. All the staff were friendly, attentive and welcoming. It was our first time there and we were given a 10% card, we will be going back.

Food was 25 minutes later than ‘10 minute wait’ I was told at the kiosk causing me to miss my train. Cherry on the cake was being handed my toast by hand. Won’t come again.

CC wins the BBB. I had the small brekky and it was without doubt the best ever. Ferdi is the best breakfast chef this side of John O’Groats. Customers love him and his food because he is a true professional, polite and kind. A real...

Excellent old fashioned cafe - great for English breakfast, tea, coffee and snacks. Some of the finest butchers sausages 👍

We took our family here to enjoy a relaxing breakfast and were totally delighted by the warm welcome, convivial atmosphere and friendly staff that could not be more helpful. We enjoyed a delicious, well cooked English breakfast, the sausages perfect! We loved the 1940’s atmosphere...

Over priced , sausages tasted off. My partner had a breakfast I think it was around £6.50 only cos bacon sausage eggs and beans no toast !! Been there twice now and I will refuse to go back there .

A historical masterpiece and one that should be rewarded. The food is incredible! I recommend the double English breakfast! If you want a cheap meal that will still taste amazing then this is the place for you! Highly educational for the children and welcoming for...

It’s amazin you should get the English breakfast they have really nice interesting historical artifacts that you can look at and has really nice manager and staff

Today we visited this wonderful, jewel in the Crown. The food was cooked perfectly..... the staff professional but welcoming. The owner, Alan.. is an engaging and kindhearted host. This eatery is quintessentially British but pays respect to an age gone by, irrespective of race etc....

Very nice café with a lot of good options on the menu. Highly recommended, will go again. Nice theme in the cafe, coffee and food will definitely have again.

Been here a number of times and every time has been lovely. Food is great quality and not expensive and the chips are the best I’ve tasted.

We visit this coffee shop regularly. The WW2 memorabilia adds to its charm along with the wonderful staff who are always so helpful & friendly. The food is great & we’ve never been disappointed. I came here a couple of weeks ago with the Peacehaven...

Looks can be deceiving! Really friendly waiting staff and funky war themed decor. We had a vegetarian breakfast and an omelette, both were really nice. The menu is extensive, to the point where it has an index. If your looking for no frills classic cafe food this is your place.

I came with my son at lunch time. Good food, excellent coffee. Great service and atmosphere. Extra mile service from chef.

A friendly cafe with a world war two theme. There is a good choice of British dishes on the menu. The food is well cooked and tasty. The staff are courteous and the service is excellent.

Service was absolutely amazing we came in after a lovely walk along the seafront, young lady who was serving was full of smiles, she made us feel most welcome and the chef made us a lovely cottage pie and burger and chips. Will most definitely...

The establishment may not be the most glamorous or even pristine but the staff are very friendly and polite. They have several options clearly marked veggie and or vegan on a permanent menu and always available.

A lovely place with 1940s music playing and memorabilia all around. Owner very welcoming. Home made steak pie was delicious. Would definitely return.

Was just walking down Seaford high street when my friend and I decided we'd find a cafe for lunch, we had a look at the menu and it seemed well priced. So we went in and we couldn't have been happier, amazing war-time cafe, with...

I have just had the best full English breakfast imaginable and I have been to several establishments nothing beats it. Compliments to the chef.

Very rude owner poor food hygiene. Dirty teatowl. Uncooked food. Could of died bone in the coronation chicken. No apology offered. Obnoxious unprofessional owner .why only cash I ask?

Wacky decor, great food, charming and efficient young staff. Well worth a special visit if you are in the area. Be prepared to be patient but there is so much ww2 memorabilia around that it's no hardship

Me and my buddies had the worst hangover known to man until it was cured by this coffee shops spectacular all day breakfast. I'm used to a Wetherspoons brekkie sorting me out but this knocked it out the park! the hash browns? godlike. The cook...
