Brilliant little cafe. Food very good and large portions so beware! Staff so friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area

Wow my husband spoke to Sue and reserved a table. It was my 60th birthday. They made me feel so special 😍 the table was all dressed up and birthday banners. Wonderful feeling it gave me. They did a wonderful fry-up which was my choice. The children had sausage beans and toast. The staff were lovely ☺️ After they brought me a cake and candles and sang me happy birthday. They’re all wonderful and made my day. What an experience and I would recommend them totally. The atmosphere was outstanding and people eating and waiting for their meals, sang too xxxxxxxxxxxx Thank you very much xxxxx

Not to happy with Sundowner this year. Thought I had a good relationship with Sue. We went 4 times to the Sundowner and only one time did food arrive after 30 mins which was acceptable. The rest of the time it was over one hour and the final time 1 1/2 hours. If they had told us when we ordered we could have made a decision whether to stay or not and as I had my brain injured grandchild with me we would have not stayed as she cannot understand the wait. I understand its the height of the season but hope by next year they may have more chefs on sight. I have read the answers Sundowner gave to negative reviews, like food takes time to cook. So please do not give me that kind of answer just accept that this year your service was not as good as last year for my family

I was lucky enough to go to the Sundowner Friday 9th August 2024 as Best Man for the wedding reception of Mike and Clare Farndon. The venue was great, just the right size to be a personal setting, but big enough to accommodate all the guest. Owners and staff very willing to help and slip timings if something ran over. Food was very good, we went back Saturday to meet up for breakfast with the extended Farndon family, again nothing was to much trouble, (we asked first) we moved tables around to sit us all, we did put them back as well!! Big thumbs up, thank you 👍

Awful We’re local and had family to visit so thought we’d have a walk down the beach & bite to eat here, we won’t be back! Obviously weren’t expecting Michelin star food but waited 45 minutes for dry, bland food with don’t give a care service. Such a shame as you have a great location. Don’t mind basic food if it’s done well but all 6 of us left still hungry.

Was on a short out-of-season break for dog-walking on the beach. Came across the Sundowner Cafe, and so glad we did! The owner and staff were lovely and the breakfast was great! Will certainly look to visit / stay in Brean again, and this is greatly due to finding this gem just off the beach!

My nephew was home from abroad unexpectedly. We needed somewhere for all the family to get together, about 30 of us. At short notice, they provided a lovely space for us all to be together, plus an amazing buffet spread. The paying bar was staffed by lovely friendly staff who could not do enough for us. Would go again for sure. Great for holiday evening out, right by the beach.

Disgusted with the ignorance and terrible service from the cafe. The 'chefs' seemed incapable of pouring a portion of butternut squash soup. 30 minutes waiting patiently as they regularly looked out at us and then ignored us. When it came it was only one third full. We asked for it to be filled and they just left it there on the kitchen hatch. It was paid for but we just left before tempers flared! Sort your staff out. Rude and incompetent.

We had been on the beach for a few hours, and decided on a drink before heading back to our caravan nearby for our evening meal. The garden of The Sundowner gives a nice view of the beach and horizon. After a drink we decided to order food from the menu. We ordered one steak pie, chips and peas, and one chicken and bacon salad. Sadly both meals were of very poor quality. There was hardly any bacon on the salad, and the salad was diced very small. It was tasteless. The supplied mayonnaise bottle was grubby, and felt as if it may not have been in the fridge previous to being served. The pie was absolutely rock hard. I believe it may have been in a warmer all day as it was not easy to penetrate. The interior was hot and tasted OK, but that was the only edible part of the pie. The supplied ramakin of gravy had an odd 'tang' to it, so I didn't use it. I have no axe to grind, it may have been a one off, but I wouldn't eat there again.

Extremely disappointing visit. We were shocked to see that the food was served on a tin plate - something I've not eaten from since sitting around a camp fire with Girl Guides! Plate cold, food barely warm, vegetarian sausages over-fried and tasteless. Bacon and chips appeared to have been kept warm for several hours, bacon hard to eat as it was dried up. Social distancing not a problem as we were the only diners. Plates were removed with the food on,.

We were staying at one of the caravans on the campsite and decided to get a takeaway pizza and garlic bread from the on site restaurant. We decided to order and pay online as that suited us in these COVID days we live in. It was very easy to order and collect when ready. But you can order food and drink in person as well. The pizza was delicious and still hot when we got back to caravan with it. There is plenty of outdoor seating available if you wanted to eat outside. There is also a children’s playground. It’s literally right on the sand dunes so next to the beach. Also lots of covered canopies for when the weather isn’t brilliant. I would have loved to have sat there with a drink and watch the sunset, but the weather put me off.

Use to go here many times pre lock down. This is the first time out since we have been out of lock this year and very disappointed. The staff very rude and made us feel unwelcome, like why are you drinking here. We took friends because we have always rated the pub. And we felt embarrassed. I sure the owners don’t care but good luck on anyone who goes and has a drink and food, as it very unfriendly.

This restaurant is part of the Tiffin Group that appears to be concentrated in two UK locations: Jersey, and area just south of Bristol, with outlets in Clevedon, Kingston Seymour and Brean. The Clevedon and Brean outlets offer snacks and drinks in the form of bar and café combinations, whereas the Kingston Seymour outlet is an unlicenced café. The Clevedon Beach Eatery is the original Tiffin outlet. In late August last year we visited the Tiffin Bullock Farm Café, at Kingston Seymour, and had an excellent lunch. It had been our first venture out after the first lockdown ended in early July. We had remained cautious, and with the Bullock Farm offering outside dining, it had made us feel safer.Now with restaurants again able to open for outside dining we looked at the potential for a revisit to Bullock Farm, but discovered the Tiffin Group’s other outlets. We decided that the Sundowner Café Bar, with its 300+ outside capacity, assured us that we would feel safe for a get together with my daughter. The Sundowner was open, it was near to where my daughter lives, the sun was shining, the restaurant was right on Brean Sands, and schools had reopened after the Easter break; so far fewer parent and child groups. Our decision was made, and we arrived just on 12:45: which was perfect for lunch.The Sundowner is sheltered by dunes on the beachside, as part of the of the Beachside Holiday Park but, I suspect, run as a concessionary business. The main vehicular entrance to the holiday park is off of Coast Road. There is a security point (at which you need to check-in) and the barrier gate at the bottom of the one-way system is opened for you. The service road leads to a generous carparking area between the caravan park and the start of the dunes that border the beach. To the extreme left of this carpark is the Sundowners Café Bar. The extensive lawns and small decked areas have good socially distanced tables, some with parasols. Each table would seat up to 6 people but 4 would be more comfortable. Menus are on boards attached to fencing and walls. A limited menu offers a range of snacks including pizzas, fish and chips, cream teas, sandwiches and cakes/pastries. Having made your choices you go to a serving hatch at the rear (given that the front of the café is facing the beach) of the café area. There is more seating in the café (closed due to the restrictions) and a covered and integral deck area: this was open but mostly unused on what was a gorgeous day. It was not busy, but I suppose there were between 20 and 30 customers. So, social distancing was easy and we certainly felt very safe.The very pleasant young woman serving took my order efficiently and I ordered three fish and chip meals, a large white wine (Chilean Sauv Blanc) for me, a vodka orange for my daughter (a free upgrade to a double-shot was offered and accepted), and a tea for my partner (being the driver). The whole bill came to a few pence under £45.We carried drinks back, collected cutlery and condiments from a well signed station outside of the front of the café area and within 10 minutes or so our meals arrived. The meals looked splendid and exactly as the fish and chips had looked when I had the same meal the previous year at Bullock Farm. The fish (cod) was perfectly cooked, really fresh fish, non-greasy chips, mushy peas, and tartare sauce. Just wonderful and with the setting, a much enjoyed occasion.When we had finished our lunch we walked up and over the dunes to Brean Beach and spent over an hour walking on the sands. The breeze off-of the Bristol Channel was a bit chilly, certainly refreshening, and beautiful in the spring sunshine. We then went back to the Sundowner for a hot beverage, we resisted the tempting cakes and pastries. We then picked-up the car for our journey home.We will return, and will look forward to that until we do.

I haven't been to the Sundowner since the new owners took over, but spurred on by positive reviews we thought we would give it a go for Sunday lunch. The food was really excellent and worth paying a little more for. The pork was very tender and served with crackling which I love. All the veg were cooked to perfection. We had a side of cauliflower cheese was is probably the best i have had. Absolutely delicious. We will certainly re turn after lockdown. Very helpful and friendly staff too, so 5 stars.

Shocking food and service. Rebooked to come to Brean last year due to the Sundowner and their service but felt seriously let down.Changed procedures daily for Covid restrictions but neglected to tell customers of the new ones meaning that you waited for your food to be delivered to your table only to find that you were meant to wait in a crowded room to collect it. Staff were very polite and efficient but manager didn't appear to know one hand from another and food was terrible. LET DOWN

Having just arrived in the area, was looking for somewhere for a quick snack.Beautiful views, and we'll designed in line with covid restrictions.We had a cheese and bacon burger and some dirty fries, these were both delicious, and what we really needed. Although the only thing I would say it was a bit expensive, good quality products, just felt as it was attached to a caravan park, we were paying for the views.There was plenty of space outside, and a very relaxed feel.

I am so unbelievably greatful because my partner lost the car key (which was parked on the beach) and my bank card. I went to ask a lady in their has a key been handed in and she passed me my bank card, John bless him searched through two bin bags for me and I couldn't believe how kind and considerate the staff was, John even check all around the cafe in the areas we had been and everyone was friendly and great atmosphere. Both the card and the key was found and my mind was at ease. I can't express how greatful I am and how far the staff was willing to go to help us. Ice cream was lovely and even the guests was all friendly. Service with not only a smile but outgoing and amazing staff and I honestly can't thank John enough. Highly recommend this cafe and will definitely be returning although my partners banned from having the car key and my bank card lol. Once again thank you especially during this rubbish year, to really make a difference to a family. THANK YOU SO MUCH ! X

We’ve been to Beechside a few times and used the bar many times before. It’s still a lovely spot for a drink and relax by the beech.

We visited this Cafe twice during our weekend in Brean. It is a great location, close to the beach at Brean and great to get out of the wind, plus you can take dogs to the outdoor seating. They do have various food options inside as far as I could see and a fully function-able bar. We had coffees and ice creams which were amazing and great value for money. I would definitely recommend visiting whilst you are in the area.

This cafe which is more of a restaurant/bar serves excellent quality food at reasonable prices, the chips are probably the best I’ve eaten, the 3 times we came we sampled most of the menu and it was all excellent, from breakfast baps, to burgers, to chips and fish goujons, the staff are very friendly and the area is COVID safe, very practical as you can eat in or takeaway and it’s right on the beach!!! The only pain I’d say is if the weather is right then to get to it you have to pay £6 to park on the beach if your travelling by vehicle!

This Cafe, bar what ever you want to call it is dog sh*t. It’s overpriced and the food quality is terrible. I ordered 2 cream teas and a few drinks. And the cream TEA didn’t even come with a cup of tea. I’m sure it’s called a cream TEA for a reason. The 2 scones jam and cream came to £6 this is shocking. I went to another cafe around the corner and they sold a proper cream tea with a pot of tea included for £3.95. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

Food is over priced and discusting, staff could not find me a breakfast menu, so i asked for a breakfast to be told they do not do one, only on a bread roll. I thought ok I will try one. I wish I had not. Sausage (if you can call it that) was raw, bacon was cheap unsmoked rubbish, and dripping in fat. All for "only" £6. Lesson learned on day 1. If you want a decent breakfast substantially bigger and better quality I can recommend quick bite cafe opposite Pontins.

We popped in after a very windy walk on the beach, and although we only had sandwiches and coffee, it was really good. I had Tuna on brown bread, and the bread was amazing.

Have visited this place twice after it has been renovated and now taken over by a new management Co (Tiffin). Our first visit on the day after they opened was fine when it was quiet, but our 2nd visit today (16 Feb) for Sunday lunch was a disaster. There was no co-ordination amongst their entire staff team and none of them seemed know what the other was meant to be doing or had responsibility for. The food was good enough .....a pleasant young lady took our order , someone else delivered the main course to our table , some else cleared the plates away ,,,we waited for what seemed ;like an eternity for the dessert to arrive , to be told by yet someone else it would be less than 2 mins ....and we were still waiting for it 30mins later. Enough was enough and we couldn't wait around any longer , so we asked for our bill and we got some else's bill which was over twice the amount what ours should have been !! Monty Python would have been put in the shade by the comedy of errors by this lot today. With respect I think that the entire staff need to sit down with each other and agree amongst yourselves who is meant to be doing what. Today you failed miserably to deliver the most basic of service.

I just posted on Facebook It’s sad when a young family on holiday can’t afford to feed themselves in this newly renovated cafe. Please note most of the comments on Tiffins page reflects the service provided by the previous Managers Dave and Vic. It’s all very well to partly renovate a cafe but you should cater for your customers. There is nowhere dry to sit outside with your dog as the only dry space taken up by clutter. This previous beach cafe’ with all its charm and down to earth attitude has been turned into a snobby so called restaurant

Always go here for breakfast when down at the van, Dave and the staff are always so polite and nothing is too much trouble. We often go there for a cider in the evening too watching the sunset. Great spot and great staff what more can I say

The best place in brean to eat and drink, had brekkie 3 mornings last week which was freshly cooked, piping hot and staff were so friendly and lovely. Also went for lunch where i had a curry which was the nicest curry ive ever had, the chicken was just as fresh as could be and was so much of it as well piping hot and my friend had a jacket potato and she said it was just nice and fluffy as well, its our second week where we have gone there more than once. It was lovely to see it so nice and busy as well and will return when we do next year

We stumbled across the Sundowner Beach Cafe when our plans to hold a beach party for our U13 rugby team were blown off course by the impending arrival of Storm Hannah. Dave and his team stepped in with 2 days’ notice, offering us exclusive use of the venue and providing an extremely reasonably-priced barbecue for 80. We simply couldn’t have asked for a better venue. Beautifully located on the beach, with an extensive, good-value drinks menu, the place was made by the hospitable staff who were incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the evening. It provided an absolute highlight in a memorable weekend.

Gosh the Plaice and chips were horrible which is a shame as Sundowner is our favourite cafe in Brean. Can't say we've had other poor meals on the contrary. Also £26 for 2 dinners 2 drinks was a little more then we had expected to pay.

We stopped here for a cold drink and to enjoy the view. The place was busy so we had to wait a while to order as you would expect.

A great little find. My family came here 2 days in a row for breakfast and snacks and found it a lovely experience. We walked to it from the beach and it was a great stop off for our beach stroll.

Seems to be the only place open in brean for food the week we were there, had to sit outside due to having a dog but not a problem as the sun was shining.

went for a morning walk across the beach and stopped of at this beachside bar for a coffee,the views across the bay were fabulous and i could imagine sitting out in the garden in the summer would be good. Nice coffee, friendly welcome and although we did not eat there were lots of people having breakfast and it looked really nice.

We have been to the Sundowner twice over the last two weeks. The first week they were having problems with their coffee machine and replaced my coffee plus gave us a free one for our next visit as it wasn't very good. The next time both our coffees were really nice and hot. Our friends had the chocolate and said it could have been alot more flavoured. The teacakes were lovely and the situation really nice after a walk along the beach with the dogs.

I am so sad to write this post but it’s important the owner/bar man I overheard today is aware that his comments were noted. I have been to this cafe/bar many times and while it’s not a “posh” place it’s a nice place to sit and have a drink. However, today I sat and overheard the owner (I believe.. or maybe just a barman!) talking to a family about the cliental of the sundowner. Apparently, they are all “Jeremy Kyle people with 15 kids they can’t look after.” He also said the people who drink at the sundowner are as bad as the “RJs people”- RJs being the club onsite at the caravan park across the road. I would like to remind this man that these people are the people that pay your wages, without the “chavvy tourists” you wouldn’t have much trade. Such a sad attitude to have!! I really hope you stop and think next time you speak about YOUR customers in such an awful way!!

What a lovely find this place was on our first day of a weeks holiday in Somerset. We stayed across the road at Holiday Resort Unity caravan park, we had a walk around on our first day there to get our bearings and wandered onto Yerrow Beach, on the way back from the beach is this café/bar, we went it to have a drink, there is a large beer garden at the back which overlooks the sea and sand dunes, it really is the most beautiful spot, we loved it and came in every day of our holidays. My husband bought me a cocktail one day which was lovely! We ate there for dinner one evening and the food was really nice, one day we thought we would just have a snack and a beer after a long walk along the beach, it was a huge portion, shared between the 2 of us we couldn’t manage them all, but they were very tasty! If you are in this area you must visit , it really is a lovely little place.

Parking right on the beach this is a coffee shop come bar with beautiful breakfast. Dog friendly lots of bowls and a water tap. Large grass area over looking the sea. Had a few drinks in here on a really hot day. Live singer outside was really good and was a little sun trap. Definitely return here again.

Enjoyable afternoon/evening. Sat outside with dogs listening to entertainment. Lovely play area for children and easy access to the beach. It would be better if dogs were allowed in the bar as would only visit in good weather otherwise.

I like Blackmore Farm tearooms usually but today service was poor. Ordered 2 flat white coffees both lukewarm. Also ordered 2 cream teas, since when does a ceram tea come with no tea? If the assistant had said I needed to order tea separately I would have. I'd finished my scone before knowing. Spoilt the experience.
