Corner House Coffee shop in East Lindsey

We visited on a lovely sunny early November late morning. The coffee shop is in an excellent location, opposite a car park -£2 for the day in winter and only c 70 yards from the sea. It is well appointed with plenty of tables and we had a nice window one looking out to the town. We just had a coffee and cake, both of which were very good. The lady suggested we had a half shot latte as we don't like it strong and she even came to check that it was ok which it certainly was. The sandwiches looked good and the food and drinks were very competitively priced. I am amazed at some previous, what I would call nasty reviews. It seems popular with the locals with a nice ambience and we couldn't fault it - we will certainly be back.

It is a wonderful cafe with a wide range of food and drink options. Sandwiches or toasted sandwiches are delicious with many choices of fillings. Hot and cold drinks to refresh yourself. The cafe is clean and well maintained, and the staff are wonderful. The desserts are delicious with a fair choice to pick from. There are toilet facilities on site should you need it. This is a family-friendly place and well visiting.

This is the cafe you can’t get into 1 Without bring shouted at 2 without being made to feel small 3 Because you never know when it’s open - 9.30. Ish to 2.30 ish- COME ON WHAT ARE YOUR OPENING HOURS? 4 Need a thick skin to not be offended by the aggressive notices on the door. The best thing that could happen would be for a new beach restaurant to open to show proper customer service.

Wd by chance found Broadway Car park, & thought 💭 oh lovely lots of space to park! We arrived at the Corner Cafe to collect the keys for the Beach Hut we hired by booking on line., the staff were very friendly and helpful. My friend and I had our dogs with us so we were very happy to sit outside as it was a lovely Sunny Sunday. The lady came out to serve us & brought us the keys etc We ordered a fresh cream Scone and a coffee ☕️ We didn’t have to wait long. The fresh cream Scone was absolutely delicious! The fresh ground coffee ☕️ was lovely and smooth. We would definitely recommend eating here. We will definitely be back, soon we hope! The lady asked if we knew where the Beach huts were, we didn’t! So wd were pleasantly surprised when she pointed over to them, as it was directly opposite the car park! Brilliant 🤩 x

Looked very inviting! Lovely friendly service and clean as a whistle inside. Menu looked great but we only wanted a pot of tea and a cake. Smashing!

Me and my husband just went here for 2 teas and two toasted teacakes. The lady that served us (short red hair) was very friendly and efficient. Everything arrived hot and was plentiful. The gentleman was also friendly with us and with other customers. The cafe was very clean. When we left, each staff member said a cheery goodbye to us. Would we come back?.....absolutely, and we plan to.

Visited during the school cummerbund holidays, yet we’re disappointed over the food served. An expensive meal when you think about it. Ordered three sandwiches (one being a panini) to be served with two sad looking pieces of bread on a plate. Lacking any form of salad garnish or anything to warrant the cost of the meal. Shame, as this cafe is in a prime location and could see a huge boost in custom. Whether it be a lack of thought or simply a lack of interest/care, higher standards of food are required. This is not the first time we have visited and been disappointed over the poor quality of food. Typically, when ordering sandwiches at cafes, salad and small garnishes - nothing over the top or massive - is served also. Would recommend if desperate and hungry in Sutton-on-Sea, however if not, look elsewhere!

Customer service is non-existent and the older female member of staff lacking in any social skills/manners. Visited with my wife, children (6 & 9) and our dog (all well behaved).....everything they obviously don't like. We only likely got served as we sat outside. My wife and children were sanitised enroute to the toilet and my one child told off for finishing the milk out of the milk jug which came with my tea. If you fancy an experience like no other then give it a go....just brace yourself! We won't be visiting again....once is enough.

I don’t get all these neg reviews. Waited by door to be greeted by a lovely gentleman with a smile. Asked to use sanitizer which we was happy to do even if we had already done ourselves outside using our own. Seated and given 5 mins to decide what we wanted. The young girl who came out to us was polite and chatty. Food was lovely great price. Toilets clean and presentable. We are on our holiday and would certainly visit again.

Didn't even fully make it through the door. The old lady was rude and uninviting. Quizzing us as to what we wanted as we stepped through the door. If that wasn't bad enough she had sanitiser in hand and was seconds from squirting all over my children's hands. We do not use sanitiser for health purposes. As we didn't use the sanitiser she marched us to a table. She barked at my child who was trying to find the toilet to wash his hands as he was made to feel so uncomfortable for not using sanitiser....hes 6! What an old witch. I'm amazed this hole makes any money at all. My advice...a customer service course or even a new job as customer service doesn't seem to be your thing. It was old and dated and felt stuffy and uptight and i couldn't wait to get out. Safe to say we didn't purchase anything from here. Go 5mins up the road to mablethorpe to Lady Bs. Amazing service!

An example of how NOT to run a business. Rude staff, place was virtually empty inside yet a big sign on entrance saying full and no seating. I asked if that was a mistake & was told " no we are busy" in a very aggressive tone. Seriously it's a joke place. Turning away customers for no good reason. I noticed hand written signs all over the place. Seems they're also still covid obsessive as well.

Had the pleasure of eating here today. The place was very clean and airy. The staff polite and attentive. All seemed good. The food was as described and tasty, had a sandwich, but honestly, it appeared to have been made with supermarket basic bread. The sandwich also would for the price have deserved a few crisps and a bit of side salad. Went to the loo to find a note on the hand towel dispenser advising that if you accidently remove more than one hand towel from the dispenser to dry your hands, then please put the other towel on top of it for the next user. I courtesly only used one hand towel. A while later after we had our sandwich each, we heard the boss and staff say "there were 14 screwed up unused hand towels in the bin. Do you think it was the fat lady?" Don't they think that their sign might have antagonised people? Shame, as it could be a really good place to eat.

Really basic cheap ingredients...thin flavourless milkshake. Cheap bread mild bland cheese in the toasties... you get squirted with anti bacterial gel on entry ..Gordon Ramsey would not approve... watered down cheap brown sauce . ..Dire! Enough said

We called in on a Thursday afternoon and were surprised that it closed at 2pm. We had disappointing toasties, the onion in mine was almost raw and the cheese was very mild with almost no taste. The cappuccinos felt very weak. Not somewhere we would call again.

Clean and well maintained cafe, relaxed atmosphere. Menu has a wide choice of drinks cold or hot, sandwich selection and various toasted sandwiches. The food is fresh and tasty which will satisfy your hunger. Prices are good so a family isit won't brake the bank. The staff are friendly and you are made welcome.

Having visited this awful establishment many years ago we decided we might try it again just in case it had improved, it hasn’t. Caught in a time warp it’s welcome is nonexistent, it’s food is just as bad if not worse.

Been visiting this fabulous coffee house intermittently for over 40 years so feel very qualified to write this review. In this post-Covid era was very reassured, everyone from the youngest to oldest customer gets politely hand sanitised on the way in and the whole place...

In my 37 years on this planet I have never experienced such a hilariously abysmal cafe experience. The owners absolutely do not want your custom, and I have never felt more unwelcome in any establishment. From the moment me and my girlfriend entered were were...

Bizarre is a good word to describe this establishment. They don’t really want your custom. It’s only really for local people who get priority service. How can a cafe be open but also be closed? Visit and you will find out. I’ve never been anywhere...

My sort of place. Very dated, in a good way. No braying Guardian readers with obscure allergies and tedious conversation. Straightforward food - no absurd coffees and Yak milk. Lovely staff, if you're not some tedious fart.

So well organised, lovely staff so helpful. Hand sanitizer at the ready on arrival, so important in the new normal world we now find ourselves in. The tea and cake were amazing. The service was quick and with a lovely smile, this makes such a...

What a bunch of nasty staff male owner screeching at customers have you sanitised you can't just walk in. The femalemember of staff had already booked us in. I would not talk to a dog the way this object spoke to his customer rating minus...

An average very dated cafe. Service friendly, food basic but okay. It’s just the place itself, it seems like its part of a 60’s film set.

4 of us called in for drinks and snacks. Staff were friendly and service good. Delicious coffee and Danish. pastry.

I got told off for putting my handbag on the table by one of the female staff who obviously had taken a dislike to us and had a very unfortunate attitude. I apologised and she walked off as I was speaking. She was then snappy...

My best friend Bob, has regretably just passed away. On my quarterly visit to see him we would always rake a trip from Manby (my friends home) to our favourite cafe, the Corner House Coffee shop at Sutton on Sea, We have been doing this for over 40 years and we have had nothing but excellent food, drinks, hospitality and service. The couple who run the cafe have always been extremely courteous and friendly. I will miss our visits, but I will always find time to make at least one visit a year to this fabulous establishment. Well done for maintaining your standards for over 40 tears.

We have been in today and ordered two mochas (not sure how they make them they taste funny and nothing like a normal Mocha!) , I did drink mine as I needed a hot drink but my partner left his. I had a cheese and onion toastie which was ok, nothing special, would have expected a bit of lettuce as garnish when eating in but it was literally a cheese and bit of onion toastie on cheap bread. Partner had toasted tea cake with cheese as ever it before which think was ok. No real issue with staff chap seemed friendly enough, lady was a little lacking in customer service skills. Did hear them whinging about other customers that had visited recently to customers sitting in cafe when we were there which isn’t professional. Won’t be returning though.

Sign should say'Ouch Soreface Ern' or similar Fawlty towers. If you want a Basil experience this is the place. The cafe was empty bar one customer (you'll see why)Opened the door greeted by a chair saying wait to be seated due to covid (fair enough) but the chair is in such a place that my mum was stuck in the doorway..we couldn't close the door and come in. The one customer in getting treated to the drafts.So my mum squeezed in on the side of me to shut door. Cue Basil 'No don't stand there you'll get sand the floor' Then Mrs Fawlty added 'Give your feet a good wipe on the mat due to the sand'Did track and trace filled out in book.The couple working in the cafe were clearly having a dispute...we were treated to the argument. I was ready to leave mum said to stay.Basil was uptight apparently. Perhaps the cafe inspector was due or a moose had fallen on his head. It can't have been the three customers.We only ordered a pot of tea and two teacakes. As the food was arriving two more customers opened the door. One was in a mobility scooter. Basil's response was 'No No No can't have that in here the floor won't take it' Disability Discrimination. You decide?Ate and drank. The tea was actually good.Upon leaving I invited Mr Fawlty to come and get the money from the table to save his floor (black and red carpet tiles). He actually did come and get it I didn't leave a tip but here are a few.1. Consider laminate flooring to sweep up sand easily.2. Consider a cafe not by the seaside to ensure no sand.3. Consider locking the door to stop customers getting in.4. Build a big step to stop prams and wheelchairs 5. RetireNeedless to say I won't be back.I mentioned the floor once but I think I got away with it.

I don't write reviews very often, especially days after visiting somewhere. We visited Sutton on Sea for the Bank Holiday weekend with our 2 children. Lovely little cafe, very welcoming and friendly, very attentive staff, great coffee and toasties. We felt right at home so visited the next day and again it was great. Will definitely revisit on our next trip from Derbyshire (and we have some great cafes here to compare)On another note, the covid practises were very well thought through and certainly felt comfortable.From the Gooners on tour ⚽️

not family friendly the staff just stare at children and tutt cause they may have clear up after up. If you have children keep away made to feel very uncomfortable.

We've been visiting this cafe over the years as our family regularly stay nearby, in the words of our kids (10 + 14 years) "it's our most favourite cafe".A simple menu of toasties, sandwiches, home made cakes and their famous fresh cream scones along with fresh espresso coffees and milkshakes. You can't beat this little gem, there are few decent coffee shops or cafes nearby, so we always default here. Very friendly helpful owners and staff who take cleanliness, particularly at present in the coronavirus era, seriously with all the right safeguards in place, making people feel both welcome, safe and relaxed. Highly recommended!

Don't bother coming here if you have children, the owners and staff to not want children here. The food is below a good standard, very cheap bread etc... hot drinks.....who can go wrong with that.....this place....never again........

Spotless ! Staff working very hard cleaning in between every customers visit. Felt very relaxed and safe in this coffee shop. Food and drinks perfect. Service excellent. Highly recommend.

Went recently to this cafe and ordered A Caffe Latte that didn’t taste of steamed milk and tasted more like water and sweaty underpants. Very disappointed I must say and was expensive too with minimalistic presentation and no miniature biscuit. Additionally the young waitress was rude and the older waitress with red short hair even ruder. It also took ages for them to come for payment sat waiting to pay, it was only when we stood up that they came ,bearing in mind that they hardly had any customers. The older waitress told us their hygiene standards were exceptional but we didn’t observe any, my glass cup didn’t even look clean, decided to go across the road to the Sea Breeze to eat instead, where we received excellent service.My advice to people thinking of visiting this cafe don’t! Avoid like the Corona this cafe has the worst attitude. I’ve been going down to Sutton on Sea for over 40 years heard that this cafe had a bit of a reputation, we thought we would give it a go. Worst mistake I made whilst on holiday.

This was my first indoor eating-out since cafes etc. have re-opened and I was mightily reassured by the measures and processes that were in place. Really clear what we should do, everything clean - it looked like the team had worked really hard on doing things right.Had a very nice toastie and cake - with a good cup of coffee - so a big THANKS from us to the people at the Corner House.

Why are you open!???? You are putting yourselves, your customers, their families at risk. Not to mention putting extra strain on vital services at this time of crisis!! Absolute disgrace!!!

We have often visited as a couple but this visit we came with family on a visit to the coast from Lincoln. The coffee is great and you can even step back in time and have a Rombouds filter coffee in your cup! It is a compact little place but that makes it cosy. We were told about the bigger tables at the back as there were 7 adults and 2 children. The service was great, quality of food was good too although the teacakes were a little flat and not fluffy like some places. It's always a friendly welcome though and I know from past visits the food is great.

Visited this cafe today with my little family. Greeted by a gentleman ( owner?) who gave us the most unfriendly welcome “dogs not allowed in. We already knew this dog was being tied up outside anyway. My daughter has a severe milk allergy and he just glared at me when I asked what was available and said we have gluten free... not quite the same is it?? We ordered drinks to be polite. The waitress bought them over and tipped a full mug of hot chocolate about an inch away from my daughters face. Not only could this have burnt her but the contact reaction from the milk would have been terrible. Instead it went all over my dress and burnt my legs. At this point I walked out of the cafe my husband explained but no apology was given. He had to ask for money back as no other drinks had been touched and this was slammed on counter. I will not return and wouldn’t recommend anybody with children especially with allergies to use this cafe. It was very clean to be fair but to the point of obsession. Maybe this gentleman should retire or is in the wrong business

Went to this attractive place Sat 9 a.m. Walked in door to be greeted by staff member (owner?) with an unusual welcome "We don't do breakfasts if that's what you want". Nearly walked out - after all what meal am I likely to want at 9 a.m? It felt as if I had upset her by asking for something unreasonable - in fact I hadn't even spoken. Luckily I saw a sign saying they do bacon rolls (isn't this breakfast?), these were served quickly, very tasty, generous serving and not expensive. Would have been 5 stars without the hostile welcome. Notable that another couple walked out after the same greeting and I expect this happens regularly. Bizarre approach for a cafe.

This is a long established concern, and it has not changed with the years.We have visited for the last thirty years when visiting Sutton we found a good welcome, helpful approach, and fast service.Cafe is located at key corner location near to the beach.Clean premises.

Came to the corner house coffee shop today for some lunch, Ordered the food at the counter and waited for the drinks, the lady made the hot drinks first then proceeded to get the cold drinks this took her a long time and meant by the time I got back to the table the drinks were only warm! The wait for food was amazing the toasted sandwiches came out very fast! Very disappointed though that all you got was the toasted sandwich nothing extra no crisps no side salad and when the cheapest sandwich was £3.50 this worked out very expensive! Staff were friendly and the place was clean!

Just love it and always have - friendly and welcoming, good choice of cakes and snacks and small meals - and great high street location.

Rude, unfriendly disgusting environment. Not at all dog friendly, hateful owners! The owners blatantly lied when they said that having dogs in venue is about what environmental health expect when it it is actually the choice of the owners.AVOID AT ALL COSTS .Coffee is appalling!

Took visiting friends for a sandwich and drink in this cafe. It was very embarrassing in what was served, there was no garnish or finesse to the plate we received. Think they need to reassess how to prepare and serve some of their foods.

Spotlessly clean cafe, with friendly welcome. Traditional menu, served quickly. Food and drink was good. Would certainly visit here again when in the area.

We have been going here for years and we cannot fault the owners, warm welcome and the best coffee in Sutton. All the staff are very pleasant and service is always quick. Lovely cakes and baps.

We have visited the Corner House for many years for lunch - twice a year in all seasons & never had a problem. It is not a big place, but the owners are always pleasant & helpful. Yes it is small & I can see push chairs having a problem - in terms of space.Close to the "pullover'.

The staff and the service was excellent 🤗, the espresso coffee was very smooth with an excellent taste and the tea and homemade cake was very nice 👍👍

On entering this cafe I was told we were not welcome with a push chair. Understandable if the cafe was too small or busy. There was plenty of room and it was empty at the time. A very rude elderly man told us we were not welcome with a pushchair. My two year old was sleeping at the time so it wasn’t as if she would even have caused anyone any problems. We have just move to the area and will be telling everyone who visits not to use this cafe. What a shame we received such an appallingly rude welcome! It would have been nice even if he had suggested we sat outside or left the push chair outside.

Excellent venue for quick efficient service and warm welcome. Long established coffee house and it shows. Spotlessly clean, professionally operated. For quick snack and choice of hot/ cold drink nowhere finer.

Our visit to Sutton on Sea was spoilt by what I can only describe as the living embodiment of Basil Fawlty. Basil, who appeared to be the owner of this establishment, clearly has no time for families or in particular children.

My wife and I visited here whilst staying in Sutton on Sea. Well priced afternoon snacks , quickly served by friendly staff. Would recommend and will return if in the area.

This is a long established concern, and it has changed with the years.

We visited after a hot afternoon for a much needed drink and a break from the sun with our 2 children and instantly didn’t feel to be made welcome. When ordering our drinks the couple behind the counter were moaning about some other customers then when our drinks arrived, my daughter (aged6) was standing next to me in the aisle and when the chap who worked there walked past he tripped over her as if he hadn’t seen her and made an over dramatic dash into the back with the lady at the counter running after him. It was all very bizarre as all he needed to say was ‘excuse me’ the lady then gave me a hard stare when she came back out!

Asked the lady for a white coffee, "instant or filter" she asked so I asked for one out of a machine and what I got was a cup with a filter on the top full of hot water. Not a problem as I knew what this was and found myself a seat. After a minute or so I took the filter off and realised that the coffee was black, not a problem as I went to the counter to ask for some milk - OH MY GOODNESS - I was greeted "you asked for it black and now you want milk". I was a bit taken aback and politely said to the lady that "no I had asked for a white coffee but this is not a problem just pass me the milk please". Once again "you asked for it black and now you want milk"!! I said that she was the host of the coffee shop (joke as no coffee shop now that I know should offer a customer instant coffee) - she then went into a blind rage of "No - I am not going to start my day off like this, you are not spoiling my day and roll on September". I will never darken her doorstep again.

A quaint little cafe. the service was good and the corner location gave a very pleasant view over the town center. They proudly announce they don't do breakfast (which i think is a missed opportunity) but they did serve us a couple of bacon baps.

As regular visitors to the area, we always begin at the Cornerhouse for refreshments. Michael and Shirley and their staff never fail to provide first class service, excellent value for money in food and drinks. The cleanliness of the Cornerhouse is second to none! Very highly recommended by two longstanding customers who have never had any cause to complain. Pay them a visit, you will not be disappointed

Another of our favorite place to visit when in the area,The Corner House is a family owned Cafe who offer a good menu throughout the day.We had Tea and Home made Scones with fresh strawberries and fresh cream,Excellent. My wife said she wished she could have eaten two,but they were a good size and even I couldn't have done it.Lovely place ,again with spotless toilet facilities and with easy reach of everything,the town the beach and the car parks. Drop in if you are in the area you won't be sorry..

We have only used this twice as the staff are very abrupt and make you feel you have to hurry. We thought the first time it was a bad day but upon returning it was no different. Not very welcoming at all. If you have to call them to ask them something they seem very put out

Very friendly and welcoming cafe with a good range of freshly made coffee. We only had cake, but an extensive menu was on offer. Extremely clean

A lovely place for a cup of tea and pastry - well worth a stop if you're in the area. The owner is hospitable, long-time family restaurant. One added bit attraction for us was the fact that there was a 'no pram' policy -- the negative comments made by two previous reviewers were precisely the reason that we were attracted to this place. Keep it up!!!

Popped in here for a cup of coffee mid morning upon arrival in Sutton on Sea after a two hour drive from Nottingham. Good range coffee to choose from and just wish we could have been tempted to devour the wonderful looking cakes on display. Great warm and friendly service from Proprietor Michael. Interesting décor on the walls and worth taking time out to read up on the history of this establishment.

I visited this coffee shop with my husband and 2 children daughter 2 and son 6. My husband wanted to visit as he used to go there as child over 30 years ago and remembered they did amazing Milkshakes. When we got there I noticed a big sign saying no pushchairs assumed it was tiny inside so ignored it. We decided to sit at back as it was spacious and no one was sitting there so if the kids were a little loud they wouldn’t bother anyone. The menu was basic but fine for lunch. My daughter was a little restless so wandering around but in a space she didn’t run she sat and played! My issue came after we had eaten and my daughter was a little restless but was close to our table.The issue was the owner kept running through the cafe pushed my husband one way and then on the way back my daughter had got up my husband grabbed her as he saw him running through but he didn’t stop instead he hurdled her then tripped over his feet and fell over. Of course we were very concerned and checked he was ok but his wife then came out put blame on my us and my daughter saying “I don’t why parents let their children run around”my daughter was not at fault and on leaving I told her so but she wasn’t having it. Safe to say we won’t visit again no matter how good the milkshakes are.

I was refused entry because I had a pram, which I was promptly told to leave outside. I said that my baby who is 13 weeks is asleep in it and I was told to leave him outside as well!!

We visited The Corner House for a brunch when on holiday in the area.

The best place for a nice coffee and cake, consistently good service and reasonably priced. Friendly staff too.

We had sandwich from there on 2 days & found them great & the coffee was just as we remembered. The owners are a great couple & make everyone welcome. We drive from Mablethorpe for their coffee. Thanks folks

I visited the Corner House today as a special treat for my Mum who has recently been ill. We were made to feel most welcome by all the staff. The coffee shop was spotlessly clean and the food was delicious. The service was excellent - very quick service and always with a smile. We were given as much time as we wanted and did not feel rushed.

Just like having a coffee in your own home Lovely friendly service and excellent drinks We always head for here when we go to Sutton

Visitamos la casa de la esquina con la familia. Encontramos muy buena café deliciosa crema junto con un bollo dulce. Personal sonriente y amable. Volvimos al día siguiente muy cerca de la hora de cierre y personal trajo a mesas y sillas para nuestro grupo,...

He estado viniendo a este café por 20 años o más - y creo que es mejor ahora, aunque siempre ha sido buena y fiable. Limpio, bien organizado y acogedor situado en un cruce cerca de la llave un sueter. Bien frecuentado por gente leal,...

Llamado para un café. El personal es muy amable. Precioso lugar limpio y compré un bollo de frutas, pero fue arruinado por el hecho de algo barato en vez de mantequilla Margarina desagradable para la cantidad de mantequilla un bollo de necesidades, no sería tan...

Over priced horrible food Had a ham and chees toasted sandwich , if you can call the filling that ,...

We called in here after walking from mablethope was going to have lunch but it has a very limited menu so we ordered 2 toasties and 2 coffee's all though it was very nice I did expect to have something more ie abit of salad with toastie for the price of over £10 so we left disappointed and hungry.

Plenty of people to raise funds for a local voluntary group. Cafe warm and inviting and friendly service. Perhaps the cups for tea and coffee could be a little bigger? Otherwise a great event.

Great little cafe with a lot of atmosphere and great staff. Visited on Wednesday, a blustery day. Had a warm welcome and fab coffee

Stop here a Friday morning for a coffee. A friendly service to which impressed us greatly. Not badly priced. We had a lovely chat with the owner. We will be back

Back in area visiting family and took my aunt to Sutton for a quick visit. Popped in here on an impulse and so pleased we did. Great cappuccino and a nice big pot of tea (with extra hot water). My tea cake was great, and my aunt really enjoyed her toasted sandwich. Have to mention the wonderful friendly and helpful staff who were working there. Very chatty and welcoming, both with us and with other, clearly regular, diners. Lovely atmosphere.Thank you

Reasonable prices very attentive staff tea and a coffee cane in at under £3 ideal very close to the sea. Has a selection of cakes too

From the moment you walk in and there's always a warm welcome waiting for you, the owners and staff will bend over backwards to help or give you assistance in any way.They have snacks like toast and butter, or the lovely scrumptious cakes which some are made by Shirley one of the ownersThe place itself is quite old and when you go in its just liked walking back through time.

Lovely little café which is bigger than you think! Have been in many times and as always the service is great..... Had an interesting conversation about a Balsam Barometer Weather Stick. so if they see this they will remember who I am !!!There is a lovely selection of cakes, snacks and meals which I have enjoyed on previous occasions and so is well worth a visit. I would definitely recommend this café if you are in Sutton on Sea.

Have been going in the Corner House on and off for approx 60 years and it is still in the same family. you don't last that long by being rubbish !!!! Has grown considerably since I was a lad and is like a tardis inside. ALWAYS excellent personal service from the owners and their wonderful staff. The Corner House is an institution in Sutton and long may it continue

I have been coming here from being a wee bairn and it's lovely to see it's with the same family for over 50 years. Special personal service and the best hot chocolate . A good place to meet up with friends

We walked from Mablethorpe to Sutton on Sea and went into this cafe for a coffee we have been in before and its a delightful place very clean staff friendly and polite. Would recommend to anyone, our coffee was refreshing.

We have been coming to Sutton on Sea for years and have always enjoyed a coffee and a cake at the Corner Café. Very friendly staff.

Stepping in off the street we had no idea what was waiting for us.The menu is quite basic (not in a bad way) hot/cold drinks, limited selection of sandwiches and cakes. But when they're this fresh and presented so nicely you don't mind- better to do a little and get it right than over stretch and get it wrong!Nice and clean especially the toilets.Orchestral music playing in the background, washing over you while you wait. Ideal for a catch up with friends or to escape for some me time. Nice to be able to read about the family history behind the cafe.Only two negatives, cash only- 2016???The owner was ranting to some regular customers about some holiday makers she had had in- not very professional.

Lovely pot of tea for two with pavement tables for dog owners and scooter drivers (even those with who crash into adjacent tables). Very clean with friendly staff. Kit Kat not kept in fridge like my regular cafe, but was offered a plate of mixed biscuits, which raises my rating to Excellent.

We had just popped into Sutton on a day out down the coast from where we were staying. The coffee was very hot and tasty. The cafe has lots of character and has obviously been part of Sutton heritage for a long while. I did find the service rather curt especially when an older couple came in and as they were sitting down minding their own business were told we don't do breakfast - they only wanted a drink ! The food and drinks were fine and tasty and the young girl serving was very pleasant - not the same can be said for the older staff.

We visited twice and the team remembered us on our second visit. The cream scones were a hit! All the staff were great with my daughter, who at 4 can wander about! Or just disturb you for a chat. Thanks guys

busy little coffee shop restaurant open during the day time only and not on Monday while I was there in June.Great selection of coffees and cakes along with light lunch options a regular stop while I was there, used regularly by the locals and the staff were very welcoming and attentive

Prompt service, hot drink and quality fresh home made scone. £2.20 felt was a bit overpriced for the size. Spotlessly clean. and I will return. Cafe with character.

Still as good as always, well situated and convenient on the quite busy Main Street popular with locals as well as holiday makers and day trippers. Quite busy, and good standard service, but can be a little abrupt when under pressure. My family seem to make tracks here whenever they visit

Good quality fresh coffe, accompanied by home made desserts & cream scone teas - can't go wrong for a day time break.

My first ever review...SETTING THE SCENE : I had high hopes for this café in Sutton. I had driven my two primary school age children from Nottingham (over two hour drive) for a day at the seaside. We had spent a lovely day enjoying the beach / park / gardens. We had taken a picnic for lunch and then wandered round the local shops for an explore. Having visited the local traditional sweet shop, we then ventured to the " Corner House Coffee Shop" as I explained to the children " Mummy needs a cup of tea before driving back home ".EXPERIENCE : I ordered a simple pot of tea for one from the young girl at the counter.Neither children( 10 and 7 years) drink tea or coffee or wanted anything but a drink of water so I then requested two glasses of water. A lady sitting at the counter then instructed the young girl to charge 20p per glass of water. I was astonished! I said in a surprised tone " You aren't really going to charge me for a glass of water ? Surely not? " To which I got a curt reply from the lady at the counter (clearly the owner Shirley) " Don't you pay for your water at home? How do you think we can balance or books? People come in here and order one cup of tea and six glasses of water? " I stated that I thought it was illegal to charge for tap water and said that I could get the children's water bottles out of the bag...to which the lady replied " no you can't do that, it is food and drinks bought at these premises only". I was so shocked that I was : a. being charged for tap water b. clearly providing for my two children c. spoken to in such a rude tone of voice (and the young girl too)OUTCOME:My understanding having read up on this now, is that if an establishment is licenced (which the Coffee House states it is online on it's website)...then it is illegal to charge for tap water.We will not be returning.Unfortunately this experience has led me to write my first review due to a poor experience not a good one.

The residents of Sutton on Sea, and visitors to the area are lucky to have this excellent coffee shop so close to the town and to the seafront. We were visiting the area for the first time and called in for coffee - it was a good decision. Freshly made, good coffee served with a smile and plenty of time to chat to us customers. The menu looked interesting and if we come this way again we would certainly call in for a snack or lunch as well as for the coffee.
