Lovely cafe overlooking the Bristol Channel near Cliifton Pier. Excellent service. It was very busy and we were advised there could be a delay in receiving our order, which was fine as the food was worth waiting, good quality and generous helpings.Definitely happy to pay the optional 10% service charge, as a quality establishment and very friendly and polite staff!

This was a lovely place to be, but unfortunately the way the room was set up meant it was impossible to hear anyone other than my immediate neighbour, which was a shame as we'd booked it for a group! It was the summer holidays though, and perhaps during normal times it wouldn't be as busy - we reserved the table and all the tables around us were reserved as well, so it's very popular! Good selection and variety of vegetarian dishes although not vegan sadly. The wait staff were friendly and accommodating (they managed to communicate to the kitchen that we ordered a plain cheese sandwich without butter for a young relation and they didn't bat an eyelid!) Quiche of the day and leek fritters were the agreed favourites. They also had a varied drinks menu, including lots of soft drinks and herbal teas. Overall, a lovely café, but I wouldn't go back during the school holidays!

This place is OK and seems to be always busy it was bustling and we managed to get a table even though we didn't book. It is very expensive for a Seaview breakfast. Set me back a whopping £64 for 2 full English and 2 posh eggs on toast plus a cup of tea, mocha, hot chocolate and apple juice. Next time I'll find a Hungary horse or greggs and save the pennies!

What an amazing find - not pretentious yet absolutely superb. Definitely 5🌟 for all aspects - location, dining outside looking onto Bristol channel, delicious meals, great coffee, very friendly service. We had late lunch/early dinner here one day and were so impressed that we came for brunch the following day. 😊 Black linguine with crab, meatballs and then full veggie breakfast were delightful.

Nice coffee and cake, but didn't appreciate the £2.50 service charge added to our bill without our knowledge. We knew nothing about it until we checked the receipt we were given after we had paid and left. Hence, we will not be returning. A real shame, as we are Clevedonians!

Lovely place, good location but disappointing breakfast. An eggy thick bread soaked in syrup was not I expected. Perhaps if you are to order this, ask for the syrup on the side and a crispy bacon( not poached).

Thank you for a lovely lunch this week. Both my elderly Mum (96) and Aunt (91) really enjoyed it. The food was delicious and the service was first class. Not being local, I’d phoned in advance to check on access etc and replies were friendly, helpful and honest. On arrival, our party were made welcome, assistance was offered, care was taken and we had a very happy lunch in the garden. Thoroughly recommend!

Revisted after a year and everything still great. Except the 10% service charge that added without being asked. Only saw when home as it was quite a lengthy bill. Checked some other posts and it was mentioned 2 weeks ago as well. Do the owners read this? Want to make it clearer? Sorry I don't do service charges, its someone doing their job. Do Nurses/Teachers etc get tips ? Great place to grab something whilst looking over to Wales. Great choice of food. Plenty of seating in or out

Disappointed to be charged £8 for a tuna, Swiss cheese and red onion jam baguette. There was more mayo/sauce than tuna, to the extent that I had to hold it steady or the filling was sliding off, very runny. I feel ripped off for being charged £8 for a slimey mess.

Excellent service and lovely location. We go here a lot for drinks and food and it is always 5 star food etc. Only slight issue is it gets very cold and blustery if sat near the door. We were having lunch today and every few minutes people coming in we had icy blasts of wind up our backs! Won't stop us going back as we love it, next time however we will reserve a table away from the door!

Large portions for the main meal and very good service, however we were charged a service charge of 10% at the end, and had not seen any notices on the menu indicating this. The pudding of apple and berry crumble, had no berries and was just a pile of crumble mix chucked on top of tinned apple pie filling

Pleasant surprise as dropped into this cafe on the off chance whilst visiting Clevedon. Despite it being very busy and not pre-booking the staff managed to fit us in and were very welcoming and accommodating. The breakfast was one of the nicest I have ever had (the lovely thick tiger toast and butter was the best). Went with my two sisters and we all had different breakfasts (full veggie and stack) and all of us loved the quality of the food and the presentation. Highly recommend and can't wait to visit again soon. Well done to the team!

We arrived and it was extremely busy however as we had pre booked we were showed to our seats. We were sat by the window although we were squished in we weren’t that bothered. Staff were lovely and very attentive. The service was very quick and food came out fast. I had cauliflower cheese and bacon which was on the specials and it was delicious and a great portion size. Although prices were on the higher side it was worth it. It was very busy so I would recommend booking if you want to be sure to get a table. I would recommend and would come again.

We enjoyed high-quality Italian food in the restaurant. The service is slow due to the crowd, but the staff are friendly and patient. The scrambling from the table next to us, when we asked for a shed added a little uncomfortable feeling. I believe it would be helpful for the staff to give them a bit of a reminder. We would definitely cycle there for food again.

Top quality food served by people who obviously care about what they do. Can get very busy, so book or be prepared for disappointment. Usually space outside, and blankets can be offered, but if there is an onshore breeze then it can be chilly! Dogs only permitted outside, but fair enough as it is cramped inside when busy.

Lovely food and location, spoilt by the fact that when I asked for my bill I was told how much it was and paid. It was only when I was given the receipt that I noticed I had been charged £1.50 service charge. Although the service was okay I would not have paid it as I was on my own! Ask for your bill before you pay as no one asks you if you are happy to pay the service charge!!

Second time we've made a breakfast stop here on the way from Bucks to Cornwall. So much nicer than the motorway, well worth a 10-min detour! Advisable to book as they were filling up by the time we left. Clevedon itself is a lovely seaside spot perfect for a quick stroll and browse of pretty independent shops. Five the Beach is one of several cafes on the beach front boasting a terrace with picnic benches and a welcoming shabby-chic interior. Lovely big bowl of porridge with cream and honey (too big to finish for me) and husband enjoyed egg and bacon buttie. Very good coffee too. Lunch menu looked great.

Small place, but so many people inside and outside. Watresses were really busy, running around like crazy, but still available to help on every request. Food was amazing, coffee was awesome, great quality. That's the positives. Negatives: as amazing as the breakfast was, waiting for over an hour for food was too much, anyone would get impatient. I appreciate it was super busy, but still. I don't appreciate restaurants that add gratuity payments automatically to the final bill, this should be a customer's choice as a reckognition of service. The waitress was amazing and I wanted to give her a tip which was actually higher that the one they forced me to pay. If the service was inadequate but I would still have to pay 10% on top, just because, I'd be really aggravated. Wasn't the case, again, the service was really good, but it could be.
