The perfect seaside cafe. This gem has amazing cakes, delicious sandwiches with local bread and wide range of delicious ice creams in the summer. The coffee is also outstanding. The cherry on the cake is the staff who are lovely and incredibly skilled.

Amazing food and staff. We had the veggie soup and hot smoked salmon bagel along with decaff coffee, cheese scone and cinnamon bun. Lots of salmon in the bagel which was great and the coffees are made by proper baristas. Cosy and warm atmosphere. Good veggie/vegan options. highly recommend! Very dog friendly.

After doing the coastal walk on a sunny but decidedly cold day, we stopped in at the Giddy Gannet. The soup of the day - butternut squash and potato - was excellent. Deliciously flavoured with herbs and perfectly seasoned. Very friendly service, too. Highly recommend.

We stopped here walking along the Fife coast for coffee, tea and cake, and it was so good we visited on the way back too! Friendly service despite a busy cafe, excellent coffee, lovely tea in a pot and delicious cakes. We tried the cinnamon buns, carrot cake and a peanut slice. All generous portions and very tasty. We will be back!

As the previous reviewer stated, highly expensive for what you get, and not a friendly atmosphere. Very much geared to small portions, and a 'get them in and out' attitude. Unfortunately, they have a captive audience in the village, as there are no other establishments.

Read great things but really disappointed and won’t be back. Tiffin-like cakes couldn’t have been smaller (well the pieces we were given were) and half a cup of tea. I know there’s a C of L crisis but rationing water is stretching it a tad.

Lovely cafe. Stopped by as Google said it was dog friendly. However, would suggest that it's more "little" dog friendly, as limited space. I had a Labrador, and found I had to keep moving around / move tables as we seemed to be in the way all of the time. Service was lovely and food was good.

Visited for lunch - the interior of the cafe was modern and stylish albeit subtle. The playlist was cracking and the atmosphere was just right for a relaxing snack and coffee break. The staff were lovely and accommodating. We had the Naughty Piglet and East Neuk Skippers bagel with a flat white. Both bagels were moreish and the coffee was exactly what we needed, highly recommended. Following the bagels we tried the carrot cake, banana & white chocolate muffin and a brownie (we couldn't decide!) all of which were enjoyable. For awareness there was only a choice of 4 bagels for savoury options and no sides with the bagels. This seemed to put off some customers who popped in whilst we were there and there and left without ordering anything. All in all a lovely lunch spot and near the harbour and the coastal walks so a great place to kick off your afternoon.

Junge Menschen haben hier einen Treffpunkt für Touristen und Anwohner geschaffen. Es gibt einen hervorragenden Kaffee. Die Bagels mit Lachs, Schrimps, Fleisch u.m. sind unglaublich gut. Sie sehen nicht nur lecker aus, sie schmecken auch so. Ebenso der Kuchen, frisch selbst gebacken und sooo lecker. Und dann das Frühstück mit Scones und Marmelade … Das ist ein Muss. Hier sollte man unbedingt einen Stop machen, das Örtchen und das Café besuchen. Young people have created a meeting place here for tourists and local residents. The coffee is excellent. The bagels with salmon, shrimps, meat and more are incredibly good. They don't just look delicious, they taste delicious too. And the cake, freshly home-baked and sooo delicious.

We went into Giddy Gannet after visiting Pathhead nursery on Friday, 24th May. We wanted a coffee and a sweet treat. I couldn't believe we hadn't visited the cafe for over 2 years because it was under new ownership. It looks wonderful in the cafe, we were greeted when we came into the establishment... Which was quite busy. After getting our bearings we decided on our orders, placed our orders and made our way to a place to enjoy our treats. My black coffee was good after I added my half & half - which I always bring myself). The brownie/GF.... Which looked delicious wasn't. I could only take 3 small bites. It was either not freshly baked or just over baked. I was disappointed with the brownie but everything else was enjoyable. Even if we shared a table with quite a rowdy group of locals. 🤔

Great little find in St Monans. The owner had kindly offered us muffins for free as we arrived after the cafe closed, such a lovely random act of kindness. They were the best muffins ever so we returned a couple days later for coffee, scones and more muffins. The vibe of this cafe is just right. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the menu is simple but creative. Great asset for this beautiful little place.

Stopped by St.Monans in a sunny but chilly morning and found this lovely warm and stylish cafe’. Offering soups and bagels (including gluten free options) with various vegetarian pescatarian and meat fillings. The flat white was of excellent quality, better than in a stylish cafe in Bruntsfield Edinburgh! The gluten free brownies with white chocolate morsel was moist and delicious. Had a lovely walk along the coast after these delicacies. Highly recommended.

Four of us went for lunch. Three rolls, two coffees, two cans of juice and a biscuit set us back north of £40. Wouldn't have minded quite so much, but the rolls were... just a roll... On a plate.... by itself... no hint of salad or crisps. At that price a total and complete rip-off. I expected a lot better for this kind of price. Expensive and over-priced.
