For anyone visiting Clacton-on-sea & fancying a nice quiet snack & drink - look no further than the West Cliff Theatre bar. Breakfast before noon & soups, sandwiches, cakes, paninis, jacket potatoes & specials are available until 16.30. Soft drinks, hard drinks, teas, coffees - you will find what you want. Enjoy!

A lovely place to enjoy a delicious home cooked lunch, sandwiches or home made cakes at reasonable prices in pleasant surroundings and lovely welcoming staff. We always look forward to going there when we have to visit Clacton hospital as it is just across the road. Do give it a try!

This is a lovely cafe inside the theatre. Run by volunteers who are always friendly and willing to help with any special requirements including gluten free. We have become regulars there now, particularly enjoyed the bubble and squeak which took me back as it was the proper stuff not the fried mixed veg you find elsewhere.

Had a lovely cooked breakfast today. Nice friendly service. Great value for money. I did make an enquiry about holding a wake, which to my surprise they can cater for. Highly recommended

After a warm and friendly welcome, your order for food is not a long wait, when it arrives it is a very good and great value meal. Have been at Showtimes, but the lunchtime slot is worth venturing just that little bit further to from the town centre.

Having read that rather strange review saying ‘rather like a greasy spoon cafe’ thought I would say it’s always very welcoming, usually with the most temping aromas coming out of the kitchen, very tempting cakes on offer to go with a welcoming tea or coffee. Nothing like a greasy spoon cafe! Oh and very good value too! Well worth a visit for lunch or another noon cup of tea and cake.

On a very damp and dreary day I was welcomed on my arrival by the two lovely ladies behind the counter. I ordered carrot and ginger soup to warm me up, I've never tried this combination before and thoroughly enjoyed it, reasonably priced and they do decaff coffee and tea which suits me. Will definitely be back to try the pea and mint soup or possibly the tomato and basil

Just passing and I thought 'Why Not'. So I went in and had their standard breakfast, nothing was too much trouble, cooked in Frylite etc. Nice meal and promptly served, with a very friendly demeanour, which was nice. And not to mention the very reasonable cost as well.

Popped in for a couple of drinks and snacks, as we have been to the theatre evening performances on many occasions. It was ok, but really like a greasy spoon cafe.

Went here today and was met by a very pleasant couple of ladies by the names of Carol and Tracey. Ordered cheese and onion sandwich and a latte. Both very nice and excellent value. For those with limited mobility there is a wheelchair ramp and disabled toilet. Definitely worth a visit.

It used to be so nice on a Saturday morning to go for coffee and a chat, but since the lady running it retired and another one took over, it's lost all its friendly atmosphere and the prices have shot up!! It seems that they can't get rid of you quick enough either. I have heard that it's really good on weekdays though.

This is one of the most welcoming places we have been, not only did we see the amazing Joe Pasquale at the connecting West Cliff Theatre, We had the pleasure of spending the rest of the evening at the Stage Door Bar with Lisa and her staff, it was a fantastic experience and we can’t wait to come back soon.

I have been using this bar for a pint or two in the evenings when there is a show at the theatre but during the day it is a coffee/tea/cake etc shop. Lovely cakes, good coffee and a very friendly lady serving who made us feel welcome. Will definitely use it again

Love this little cafe, ideal for me when I pick my little one up from nursery to have a cuppa and my fave lemon drop cake or even me and family/friends to have a chin wag. Carol is lovely, friendly and very professional! We are regulars and the prices are fair and the Brie and cranberry panini is lovely

We normally go in for tea,coffee and a sandwich.but new menu and there is now jacket potatoes and different fillings and fresh salads. Tried the tuna salad and was lovely. Would recommend the egg mayo sannies and the warm bacon,and sausage sannies too. Plenty of choice on salads and all freshly prepared.

Visited this cafe on Sunday after Dear Zoo & were delighted to find this super cafe open after the show. Great drink & food menu. We sampled the salted caramel cake-twice, just to be sure we liked it!! Such friendly staff, clean, didn't hurry us out, even though the show had finished. Wonderful place. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend.

We visit here weekly for lunch. The food is limited but excellent. We also enjoy seeing the finished painted pottery other visitors have made. Service is friendly, and it has a real community atmosphere.

Been here a few times now, will say the food is outstanding. However, what lacks slightly is the service and the coffee. There are a couple members of staff who do not even greet you with a smile when you walk in, and when I asked if they do tea cakes they just looked at me with a blank face and shook their head. They also did not have labels on the cakes so myself and my mum did not know what cakes they were exactly. The final thing is the coffee - hot drinks are luke warm at best. If you ask for them extra hot that solves the problem though. Twice I have ordered an iced dirty chai and both times there have been lumps of chai powder in the drink still which leaves an unpleasant taste. So, definitely worth a visit as there is a nice atmosphere and the food is lovely, they also have an outside area around the back. However, the coffee and customer service could improve slightly.

The Inn has undergone a thoughtless renovation of furniture and decor. The 2024 renovation had stocked the rooms with locally made furnishings from Simon Pearce and Pompanoosuc Mills. The current attempt at mid century modern is colorblind and insulting. The decorators failed to consider The College, installing Yale Blue headboards and bedding runners. The multicolored heads in the artwork over the couch are pandering to multi culturalism while failing to recognize that all of the heads are shaped like a patrician white man. It is embarrassing. There is one cute print of Kemeny’s car with a BADIC license plate, but the rest of it is decorated like a typical Homewood Suites now. The Inn itself remains otherwise lovely. The staff are kind and welcoming, the bed is comfortable despite its ugliness, and the location at Dartmouth College (Yhe Home of The Big GREEN - not BLUE!) remains perfect.
