Coasters Restaurant in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Great restaurant with friendly and welcoming staff. The food was really tasty and well presented. We had one of the charming and very cosy beach huts. We will certainly be back in the future

It's the only place where I could order everything off the menu! Didnt disappoint! It was an amazing experience and service was perfect

Lovely little restaurant in the centre of Southwold. Food was comforting and good sized portions

Best restaurant by far in Southwold. Book in advance and enjoy. Friendly efficient service, delightful plates of food and lovely atmosphere. Had the sea bass- yum!

Only had cake and coffee here. Both were excellent. Staff are very friendly. We were there at lunchtime and the atmosphere then was good. Tried to book for evening meal but fully booked. We will be back. The menu looks great.

Can't fry a couple of eggs! Not quite hard enough to sole shoes. Dry and powdery. Extremely expensive for poor quality cooking for one person meal. Very disappointed. ;(

Great little eatery, good food, very friendly service in the heart of Southwold

Rare gem in Suffolk, lovely decor, great food and friendly staff.

We had a lovely meal whilst visiting my Aunt in Southwold. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was great and friendly.

Nice cup of coffee in a nice little place, and they've got a bar with a big solution of Gins and other spirits.

We always love eating here when we visit Southwold. Book in advance!

Lovely food, we enjoyed a very relaxed and wonderful lunch, fantastic service, highly recommend a visit!

We went to Coasters as a family in June. We never even thought to ask if vegan options were available, as all restaurants in Southwold offer excellent choices these days. The waitress was lovely, I can't fault her , but the chef, whoever he was , was unhelpful in the extreme. I was served soup as a starter , which was perfectly adequate. The main course was supposed to be pea and asparagus risotto , which would have been fine if it had been prepared properly, but it was tasteless muck , just peas and rice with 3 asparagus spears laid across the top. To add insult to injury it was almost cold , and was a ridiculous price. I ate one mouthful and gave up. We visit Southwold regularly as we live nearby, but we absolutely will never eat in this place again. We were also eating in the wooden huts out the back and kept getting an unpleasant whiff from the toilets opposite. We ate wonderful food all week including the Swan Hotel where we were staying, but this experience ruined our last night.

Great staff, friendly atmosphere and good value.

We ate in one of the huts which was lovely.

Great atmosphere, delicious food and fantastic service.

Best kept secret in Southwold. Nrver fails to please the taste buds.Book ahead to save disappointment.

Just back from a week in Southwold made all the more better by the superb food at Coasters best Sunday lunch ever followed by a lovely midweek meal you can see why you have to book the number of disappointed people who had to be turned away says it all wonderful friendly staff and lovely food well done if you want to go book

Great food good value for money you need to book

A great birthday meal in the beach huts for my husband, the food was delicious & the service was amazing - the lovely staff added birthday confetti & a handwritten postcard to our table.

Super place with great food and service. We had a beach hut out the back for four people, which was a unique and quirky experience and we loved it. Enjoyed it so much we tried to book again but they are so busy we couldn't get in, so book early as they are quite deservedly very popular

Looked forward to our 4 days advance booking after seeing people dining through the window and good reviews prior to our booking. However on arrival, we were taken to a “beach hut” (1 of 3) at the outside rear of the premises passing several occupied and unoccupied tables in the restaurant area on our way. The beach huts were in the same area as the outside toilets - not a good first experience and I'm sure there was no mention of the possibility of being booked in a small beach hut when we made the booking. If we had we would not have booked. To the manager - We were looking forward to the ambience and atmosphere of Coasters restaurant which was none existent in the “beach hut”

I have been twice. Dinner in the beach huts is a must when visiting Southwold! Food is delicious and good value. They gave us fudge with the bill and the next day we went next door to ask if they sold any. They didn’t but gave us some from the kitchen to pay for. Kind people and will visit every holiday!

Had dinner in one of their beach huts. It was a little chilly in the evening.

Great little place, with some excellent food and service!

Julie and Kate were friendly and welcoming, the surroundings are lovely and the food delicious. Huge main course portions, we couldn’t manage a pudding after having a starter. Highly recommend this restaurant for ambience, great service and lovely food

The most delicious food! This was our first time visiting Coasters and it certainly did not disappoint. We booked a beach hut to dine in, which was very comfortable and made the experience unique! Highly recommend and will be returning!

Lovely food in a smartly done out restaurant. The beach huts are a great addition although we sat inside. On a Saturday night it was completely packed, so it is essential to book in advance. The food was, great, pub classics but done in a gourmet style with a heavy emphasis on seafood. The portions are large. Good value and a great night out. As it was so busy the service was a bit slow, but that was fine.

Stayed in southwold for 2 days this week, ate various meals lunches, evening meals etc, and Coasters was by far the best, I had tempura prawns to start and pork belly for main, just the best and great value. Would definitely go back

It was good, nice staff nice food. And not too silly prices.

We had one of the beach huts so great atmosphere and we could control our own heating and music. A thoroughly enjoyable evening.

The food here is great quality, not to fancy, but nicely presented , the atmosphere in the main room was relaxed and a nice vibe… only two staff, but they managed the room with expertise and skill, we wanted for nothing.. cream brûlée was on point… and the best surprise, 3 courses for two with drinks under £100… we will definitely go back

Lovely place to stop for breakfast before our daily walk. Dog friendly out back. Blanket provided is for human use only, so bring your own if needed!

Loved the beach hut. It was really cold outside but the hut was toastie and the meals delicious

Best dining experience in Southwold to be honest. This little unobtrusive restaurant exceeded our expectations. Staff were attentive, polite and friendly. Food was superb, especially the pork belly, best we've ever had. Made our last meal of the holiday really special. We will be back.

Used one of the beach huts in the rear courtyard because we had dogs with us. Great staff, good coffee, ace cheese scones

Had both breakfast and dinner here. Fabulous food, lovely friendly staff and nice atmosphere. They have dog friendly booths like sea huts outside, great idea. Be there well before 10 am for brekkie as they stop serving at 10 sharp to prep for lunch and do book for dinner as its a very popular venue.

Unpretentious and inexpensive. Varied and superbly cooked food with great attention to detail for those with allergies or other requirements. Advanced booking both worthwhile and advisable.

Perhaps it was a bad day but the cake we had was dry and unappetising.The coffee was good but we felt we were just in the way and were only offered a small choice when we asked for cake and coffee at eleven.

Really enjoyable meal Some of restaurants were shut when we were in Southwold but this was the best food we had on our stay. Food was fresh and very tasty and not very fussy. Staff are lovely and very accommodating. We had a hut out the back which our 2 kids loved (as did we). Have nothing negative to say about our experience at Coasters will defo go back when next in the area.

Great food, Lovely staff. Good evening!

What a great find! Visited on 28th March, and everything about the place was outstanding. My friend did have one minor issue- the haddock was too large to finish, although other diners did not appear to feel the same. Loved the beach huts outside for diners with dogs, such a great idea. Will definitely be back.

Lovely restaurant and great food,we went for evening meal and it was outstanding highly recommended.

Enjoyed our coffee & hot chocolate plus cake. We sat in the back it's a bit cramped and the coffee machine is so noisy you can't have a conversation. Every table in the back was saying the same. Toilets are outside over a high stepped door. No good for me as I'm disabled. No offer for anymore

A wonderful dining experience, delicious food and lovely service by staff. Dessert was the best cheesecake ever! Our visit was for family birthday celebrations and the Coasters Team made it very special. We can't wait to return. Highly recommend a visit!

Excellent location quirky beach hut added to the experience food and service excellent. Recommend

Great idea to have lovely huts in the back that had their own heater, radio and blankets. Table sat 4 comfortably and you can close the doors if you really want to keep out the cold. Food was very nice with pleasant service.

Have had a lovely time there previous years, but as a vegetarian I was left feeling sad. No starter except soup, a main that was really a super tasty and rich side dish that was crying out for a main piece plus fresh veg. I'm having to mark it down in 2024. Staff great, even ready with a mop for a flooded toilet adding to the adventure 🤔 - sorry Coasters, you have been better 😞 --- after a night of discomfort from bad food my review is unfortunately being downgraded from a 3 to a 1 for the food. Coasters - what went wrong?

Snack or meal great choice tasty good portions staff friendly good prices

Booked a hut, I really recommend pre booking as this place can get very busy. It was a lovely, private experience being in the hut, there is even a radio! The food is really nice, I recommend the lamb roast and the tomato soup, and the staff are super friendly. I recommend this restaurant to most, apart from if you are vegetarian, as there is a lack of options for vegetarians, however I will definitely be back.

A delicious evening meal in a cosy atmosphere served by friendly helpful staff. Thank you.

Book early to avoid disappointment. The service is second to none and the food was excellent.

Amazing restaurant, we ate here twice, a fabulous dinner and an outstanding breakfast. Lots of GF options, staff and kitchen very understanding of other dietary restrictions. If you're in Southwold this is a must visit establishment.

During a stay in Southwold we chose Coasters to celebrate our wedding anniversary - what a fabulous find! The atmosphere and ambience is absolutely delightful, the staff really welcoming and the food was just off the scale in the very best way! Fresh food beautifully presented and wherever possible locally sourced and it all tasted just divine - all of this along with a couple of personal touches to make our evening very memorable - a heartfelt thanks to all, highly recommended.

Always a tasty treat whilst visiting Southwold . Cozy informal charm, great meals to suit all pockets . Relaxed but attentive staff . Good Sunday roast

We had a lovely evening here. Great food, great staff. Fantastic.

Popped into Coasters and they were so accommodating. Kate, our waitress was wonderful. So friendly and lovely. It’s such a nice place and a lovely atmosphere. Perfect.

Went here for an anniversary meal. Very nice food and service but overpriced.

A hidden gem with a warm welcome and first class food. If you are staying in Southwold it is ideal but if not then it is well worth making a trip to eat here. Highly recommended.

Great Fish and Chips along with wonderful service! Was busy, even on a cold September weekday lunchtime, so make sure to book if possible.

Great service and food, very civilised dining

Lovely experience at this very small and intimate restaurant. Can understand why it is hard to book a table. We were lucky and got a call back after a cancellation. Much appreciated them calling us. Great atmosphere, attentive service, great food at great value. Plus some very unusual spirits.

Fantastic food. Reserved one of the beach huts, which are a great idea for a bit more privacy. Excellent service and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

Love this place . We went for Mums 88 th birthday( was my 61st also ) . Mum and 1 of my aunts had the double egg ham and chips, my other aunt the homemade sausage roll and chips and I had the coronation chicken sandwich with fries and homemade coleslaw . It all tasted great . I asked for a gin and tonic and was told there are 38 kinds to choose from , heaven . The Lemon curd bread and butter pudding which we all had was amazing . All round a good time was had by all of us . Our new favourite place .

Amazing little diner, highly recommend.

We weren't in a hurry, it was a good job. It's a bit pricy 11.50 for a sani. It comes with 10 thick cut chips and home made coleslaw. The coleslaw I got was the thick ends, so, if there was a choice I would have just had the sani, and for it to be cheaper.

This was our second evening visit to Coasters and on both occasions the food and service was excellent. We can also throughly recommend the breakfast

Loved the seafood here. The fish platter was exceptional and generous. Good service too

Amazingly accommodating service. We got there a little early and were given a couple of options for seating choices. We found that the 'beach hut' seating was indeed very charming! They settled us in and took drinks orders straight away. The coffees were a welcome sip as the rain found it's way overhead, but sheltered by the beach hut and covered outdoor area, we enjoyed our well-priced and high-end lunches with a smile! Can't thank the team enough for a memorable trip to Southwold to celebrate our 1 year anniversary!

Coasters is such an excellent restaurant, the only bad thing about it is how hard it is to get a reservation which speaks to how popular it is. The food is great, service is impeccable; if you want to go make sure you book in advance.

Lovely little restaurant with some quirky outdoor seating and offers up a super menu along with a nice wine list to boot.

Had a lovely meal here with my family over the weekend. Great food, really good protions. The deserts are absolutely brilliant. Great service too. Thanks for a really nice meal.

Food and staff were lovely. We sat in little beach huts with music piped in, which was lovely. They also have air conditioning in hut, which is a good thought to keep customers comfortable. Very good experience and would recommend. Cost included bottle of nice wine.

Brilliant breakfast and great service.

Had a wonderful dining experience at Coasters last night, in one of their "beach huts" pods where our dog joined us. The food was wonderful, great portions, fresh and tasty, only shame we couldn't manage to fit in dessert. Lovely friendly staff and we will definitely be back. Well done Coasters.

Lovely little restaurant in the heart of southwold. Beautiful beach huts in the back to dine in. Delicious food. Friendly staff. Went out of their way to accommodate me regarding my gluten intolerance and made me gluten free battered fish!

Brilliant Highly recommend . Try the scones - 1st class !!

Food was superb, great service with a really warm atmosphere. Check out the beach hut booths for a cosy night.

Had a fab lunch in Coasters yesterday (Sat) with lovely food and service. Will definitely b going back. They have beach huts out back you can have your lunch in, heated and aur con. Brilliant idea

Amazing food, if you are going to Southwold then make sure you book in advance and eat here! Can't fault the food or drink - and the service makes it even better

Lovely cheese scone and they let me plug my laptop in 🤙

Fantastic restaurant with amazing food (great sauces & flavour combinations) with a gin list longer than my arm! (and they are decent gins)

Booked a table for two at lunch, and the food, setting, service, and value were exceptional!! Can't fault it in any way and would definitely go back!!

Amazing fun, great service, extensive menu

Friendly staff, fabulous food! I had the haddock & chips, I've never seen such a large portion of fish! Beautifully cooked and absolutely delicious! We went back to Coasters the next night after having a poor meal elsewhere, and ordered dessert as we'd been too full the night before! I definitely recommend this place!

Lovely ice cream, hot chocolate and coffees

Visited here for dinner. The food is fantastic with a great choice. The dressed crab was possibly the best we've ever had. The puddings were decadent in the extreme. You will need to book as it's very popular, but it is well worth a visit.

Nice food and choices of drinks

Excellent food. Tempura prawns really succulent with light, crisp batter. Slow roasted belly pork was superb. Served with black pudding, apple sauce, crackling & potato rosti. Perfect dish. Loved it. Thank you.

A very good experience, its a small place and rightly popular it knocks the spots off the nice but very expensive hotels, with locally sourced food, fish from local boats landed that morning, friendly efficient service very well cooked & presented, they have a gin list of 70 to choose from, it's essential to book as it's that good with locals and visitors like me.

Excellent,meals here. Make your reservation

Fantastic dining experience - Will be returning soon !!!

Very good food / very good service.

We turned up on spec on a Bank Holiday Sunday, so they were fully booked, but they managed to squeeze us in for an hour and twenty minutes, which was enough for a starter and a main, and they never made us feel rushed. I had a great big portion of whitebait to start and then the "smoked haddock rarebit" which had Indian flavoured rice, so I guess it was a twist on Kedgeree. They were both very tasty. The menu is very varied. I would also recommend the Sula, Indian Sauvignon Blanc. Staff were excellent. I would definitely return, and book a table next time to make sure I have time for dessert.

Lovely meal and excellent service.

This restaurant is disgusting place to eat I had Childs meal as I can't eat a lot chips with fish bites and bake beans well the chips was cardboard cut outs the bake beans was stone cold the fish bites was well I don't know the batter was colourless and soggy. My husband had liver and bacon the liver was so over cooked it was tougher then his shoe leather. My son and his girlfriend had chips and ham the eggs and ham did look nice but far to much ham more like half a pig but they did say the ham was nice shame about the chips. Hmm should have gone next door to the proper fish and chip shop. We only went there because we had a toddler and it said family restaurant.

Nos visita aquí para un almuerzo de pescado y chip cada vez que están en Hunstanton, trajimos propio parientes aquí, por desgracia no vieja con nosotros, así que volver a este café es un recordatorio agradable. La tienda ha cambiado de manos desde nuestra última visita y tuve una buena charla con ellos. Aunque los precios son ligeramente más altos que una bolsa de pescado y patatas, espere hasta que vea el tamaño y cómo es el pescado blanco - vale la pena cada céntimo!

Nice enough place, but on the day I went there wasn't a single vegetarian option on the menu. They ended up making me a cheese sandwich, which filled a hole. I just can't remember the last restaurant I went to which didn't have a vegetarian option. (Hard cheese containing rennet isn't vegetarian).

Por la mañana en la playa con las hijas y 4 nietos de 11-14. Cuando la lluvia comenzó y diversión comida en Posavasos, todos tenían algo diferente, pero todos contentos con la habitación bien presentado, caliente y delicioso, el personal amable, agradable, con vistas al mar. Un final precioso a nuestro día. Gracias, el abuelo! Volveremos el próximo año en el día tradicional de Hunstanton y sin duda será comer en 'Posavasos'.

very good food and service . ordered the brunch and was not disappointed . Hot and tasted good . staff very attentive . will be definately back
