The Beach House in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

We called here for breakfast before setting off home and it didn’t disappoint all cooked to order,piping hot and tasty. Recommend!!

Enjoyed a wonderful breakfast. Fantastic coffee, beautifully cooked bacon, eggs, sausage, beans, tomato, mushroom & potatoes. A really excellent meal. Friendly & welcoming staff. I look forward to my next meal at The Beach House Cafe.

Excellent breakfast and delightful views of Seaton beach. Staff were very helpful and the food was really tasty. Good value overall and will definitely revisit. They accommodated our larger party and small baby very well.

Had such a lovely meal here. Staff are so friendly, the restaurant has an intimate, relaxed atmosphere and the food is really good. Would definitely recommend a visit. Thank you

Dropped in on a busy Bank holiday Sunday for brunch. Great outlook over the beach and evidently a popular venue as so many customers to manage - this can lead to delays, but worth the wait as the food was excellent and very good value. Good to see happy staff also, but maybe a few more to cope with the demand wouldn't go amiss. There were a couple of older guys there, maybe the owners(?) who seemed happy to let their staff run around, but felt like they could have helped out - cute couple though. Looked like the are opening up the ground floor, which would be a good move and help cope with the demand. Would certainly recommend.

Booked a table for 8 of us - including two small children for 12pm. Had to sit downstairs as we had dogs - weren’t told about the loud renovations (drilling/banging) that were happening. Ordered the food at 12:09 - one man ordered ahead of us. The menus only come out at 12. Ordered three salads (two of which were mozzarella, tomato and rocket so hardly complicated to make), some extra chips, a pizza, a chicken burger, steak sandwich and two plain kids burgers. After 40 minutes (and no communication) we enquired if it would be much longer, as people who were sat outside and who had ordered after us were getting their food. Waitress said she would find out and come back to us. She didn’t. We asked again at 50 minutes and she said we were the next order but would we like some bread or a free round of drinks. We opted for the bread as the kids were hungry. It never arrived. By this point we had been waiting an hour. A family member asked the waitress again what was going on and she just blamed the kitchen, saying she was just the waitress and she didn’t know. He said fine but you must be able to ask them how long it’s going to be, and put his arms in the air in frustration. At no point did he shout or be rude but he had two hungry children, it was a hot day and no communication from the staff. The bread turned up about thirty seconds before the food started to come out - in dribs and drabs so we couldn’t all eat together an hour and 15 mins after ordering. The food was bland, the chicken salad had no dressing, the pizza was under cooked, the chips burnt and the salads tiny. Apparently WE were to blame for all of this as we were a large party and smaller parties are prioritised over large ones. Which is ridiculous, and having worked in a restaurant, not how you should run one. There are no signs up to let customers know this, and as already said, zero communication. We were given £40 back as compensation but that didn’t even cover a round of drinks for all of us. Oh and laughably, they barred the family member for being ‘intimidating’ - but that’s ok as we definitely would not be returning. I would happily be barred from there for life!! We spoke to a lot of restaurant owners where we were staying in Looe and they told us what a terrible place it was - wish we had avoided altogether.

We had walked from the campsite we were staying at in Looe, along the coastal path into Seaton. We came across The Beach House; it was busy and seemed a popular place so we decided to give it a try for some lunch. There is a good selection of food and drinks on the menu; we opted for a burger and a salad, both of which were really good. The prices are reasonable for what you get and the service was prompt. We sat downstairs but there is also an upstairs area. It has a nice vibe and atmosphere here; gorgeous views across the beach and it’s dog friendly too.

Food absolutely delicious. Great views and atmosphere. Staff very friendly and attentive. Would definitely return here.

Nieve ( Yellow top) was excellent today preparing two amazing smoothies for us ! Strawberry and Passion fruit - simply superb - so good we ordered two more ! Lovely atmosphere at Beach House today - beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean Certainly Beach House great asset to Seaton ! Seems to be going from strength to strength - well done to all lovely and professional staff!

First time we’ve eaten dinner here since it was taken over by new owner. Very impressed. Food great. Reasonable price and very friendly, professional staff. Would recommend

Wonderful place to sit and admire the view whilst eating a very tasty cooked breakfast and coffee. Right opposite the wonderful dog friendly beach - a must do pit stop for refreshments. Only drawback is the parking tariff - local councils do not make it easy for these businesses as it’s off putting paying a lot of money off peak to park.

I gave 1 star for the cake which was nice -same can’t be said for Jake who was serving. He didn’t crack a smile once in the 15 minutes I was in the cafe. He was exceptionally rude to a customer who wanted to borrow a fork for the chips she was purchasing. If you don’t like people don’t get a job front of house!!

I live in Seaton and was very disappointed to have tasteless food after choosing Chimichurri potatoes and lamb Kofta … a few herbs and chopped peppers was not Chimichurri… the waitress was lovely and told the manager who agreed that we weren’t given Chimichurri … such a shame as we were really looking forward to a treat… they did knock them off the price though… although the Kofta was also without

This restaurant is justly booked out on a regular basis. Set in a stunning location overlooking the bay, it offers local produce cooked beautifully paired with a great drinks list. The atmosphere is relaxed and the staff super friendly and knowledgeable. We rarely return to anywhere on holiday, but this lovely place had us rebooking for a second visit during our stay.

What an amazing meal we had tonight. Staff explained that our meal might be a while as cooked fresh well worth the wait as we enjoyed a drink and the view from our table. Staff were excellent friendly and polite need to book to avoid disappointment. Can't wait to return

The menu and location brought us here. Bright and expansive outlook over the bay. Plenty of terracing on ground and first floor. Ground floor doggy friendly. Unfortunately the two waitresses were not proactive and we left after 10 minutes. It wasn't at all busy. Plastic plants.🇬🇧🇳🇿

Excellent service. Friendly staff. Perfect location and would definitely recommend and return. Thank you Chrisie. ❤️

Absolutely stunning inside and out, we were lucky to sit at a window seat with amazing sea views but I don't think there is a bad view in the building! The food was incredible - we had scallops and mussels to start, Thai prawn pasta and prawn pizza for main and a kid's meal. The staff were wonderful, incredibly attentive and friendly, even giving us holiday recommendations when asked 😊 We found it family friendly but would happily go without kids!

Popped in for coffee and cake on a rainy day. Staff barely acknowledged us even when standing right in front of the bar area. Had to ask for menus, waved goodbye and got no acknowledgment. The girls working there seem to not give a care in the world about customer service. Coffee on the other hand was decent.

Lovely spot and waitresses were very friendly and helpful. However, kitchen service is appaling. I ordered the take away 'rocket's pizza (Parma ham, rocket and mozzarella). First one I got was a margherita so I sent that back. They sent SAME pizza back to me with rocket, ham and parmesan chucked on top, cold. Sent that back and got a slightly warmer pizza back, still with no mozzarella. I gave up at this point. I at least got a refund! The other day the forgot we were there twice and my husband had to wait 1 and 1/2 hours for a bacon sandwich. Think we have given up on them!

We are lucky enough to be local to this place and use it all year round. It’s always fabulous and the staff and service are very good. Tonight we visited with family who are visiting for the weekend and as always had a lovely time. It’s always interesting to see a favourite haunt viewed through fresh eyes. A definite 10 out of 10 from our guests (and us). Wonderful fresh local fish - my mussels were off the scale good. Pannacota dessert was yummy. And the view is stunning. Right by the beach. We are so lucky to have a bar and restaurant of this standing on our doorstep. If you are in this area, don’t miss it. Enjoy!

Went there without a booking but was seated even though the place was less than 50% full. Got seated at 1800 and told the table we wanted we could not have as booked for 1900 by a party. Got seated and good service front of house to this point. The table we wanted arrived at 1940 so 40 mins after us and late. They were fed before us. We sat there and after 45 mins my wife’s starter turned up. Another 50 minutes, now 1 hour 40 mins after seated told food will be along and is being cooked. We left and were offered our drinks and starter for free so that shows they knew they were wrong. I paid in full but told the chef is leaving and being…. And pre booked takes total priority even if they are 40 mins late. A poor show and they will go bust if they don’t look after the 365 a year people and prioritise the once in a life visit. I will re visit when then ownership and management change. Avoid if you want to eat…… we did not, eat that is as never served after 1 hour 40 minutes……

We stopped for a coffee and cake, which was lovely. The staff were young but knew what they were doing and very efficient. Lovely coffee and tray bakes. Left for a look around the beach and local area, returned a couple of hours later for lunch, the staff remembered us which was lovely, ordered drinks and food, the burgers were GREAT, the service was good and they were busy. Great place for food and drinks. Great for kids and dogs, even better for adults. 😁😁

Excellent food, good portions, reasonable prices and fabulous view across Seaton beach out to Looe. Service started out very well, but got a bit patchy as the evening wore on hence the 4 rather than 5 stars. Don't let that put you off though, as I would certainly recommend

Chrissy, Scarlett and staff provided their usual excellent service on Saturday evening, together with a wonderful view and not forgetting the delicious food…

It's such a treat to go to a place where the staff are SO friendly & competent, the food is superb, along with such gorgeous views. Highly recommend the bang bang cauliflower starter, one of our favourites, and all 4 of us opted for the...

An upsetting experience today having been looking forward to lunch. We were denied access to the restaurant because I had my fully accredited assistance dog with me. This is NOT a pet and under the Equality Act 2010 is legally entitled to accompany me anywhere...

The food and service was excellent! The views from the balcony was superb! Our server Kirsty made sure we had everything we needed and made us feel very welcomed!

Great spot, staff and food. Had lunch here to check it out the day before and ticked all the boxes. Staff on it and the chef delivered a meal with a difference.

After a walk along the beach from Downderry we stopped off for a drink and a bite to eat, sat upstairs on the balcony. The staff were very friendly and helpful, even had a mardle with the own who gave us some good location for...

What an absolute find. Called in late afternoon for drinks in the Sunshine, but then decided to stay for Dinner. We sat in the upstairs restaurant by the huge windows; the views over Seaton Beach are just stunning. Food was very good - I opted...

Everyone is really friendly here. If you have a dog you can sit downstairs and look out to sea. The carvery was amazing. What more could you want.

A very stylish and cozy cafe with a great variety of fresh tasty food and welcoming staff. I’ve never found anywhere in the UK with Corona on tap and the pizzas were lovely. The top floor has a panoramic glass window with a view of...

We recently visited the Beach House with our two small children and family. The staff were really lovely and friendly and the food was great. We will definitely go back and would certainly recommend a visit.

Had such a lovely evening, was served by 3 different young girls who were all so lovely and accommodating. Tried 2 of the small plates and 1 main and it was all amazing and service was great! Got seated at a lovely table straight away...

This review is an unusual one as the food we had was actually very poor but given the overall experience we had and the efforts the staff went to in order to compensate us and make us feel valued as customers was by far the...

Great location with views across Seaton beach and to Looe Island. You can take your dogs into the cafe downstairs then there's also a restaurant upstairs and a takeaway for quick drinks and ice creams. Food was delicious and well presented including the vegan option....

We booked for a lunchtime birthday treat in the restaurant. The food was some of the best we have eaten in Cornwall. We had two of the small plates with side dishes. The portions were generous and the quality excellent. We have to commend the...

Always love this cafe, right on the seafront, good coffee and delicious cakes. Lots of choice of food and dogs allowed too.

Wonderful food and location ! Have been all over Cornwall and Beach House food excellent ! Superb Chicken salad and beautiful fish and chips My wife loved her mushroom tagliatelle Lovely ambience ❤️

This was the chosen venue for 33 people in our Dining club and it proved an excellent choice indeed. All the staff were very welcoming and most attentive from the outset and throughout the whole evening. The food was delicious, well presented and served with...

Excellent service. Attentive staff. Excellent quality of food delivered to us all. No one was disappointed. Beautiful room made available for our exclusive use giving us a sensational view of the beach and crashing waves. Stunning.

Visited recently for dinner. Took advantage of the special offer of 2 for £20. Very good value. Starters (extra to the deal) were well presented and tasty. Main courses were very good and generous. Service attentive up till then. Then we waited and waited. Not...

First class food, beautifully presented, friendly excellent service throughout, relaxing ambience and a wonderful location. When I booked the table I was asked about dietary needs which impressed me. I thought it was extremely good value for money too. We really enjoyed our visit and...

Hopefully Sunday lunches will be available throughout the year - lovely choice of meat & vegetables, piping hot & with the addition of a homemade pudding, it's just such a treat - nice to be away from the kitchen!

Had a pre season meal with a group of friends,14 of us Sat in a side of the restaurant that felt like a private space. The service and food fantastic, friendly relaxed area ,we were noisy but no-one seemed to mind....in fact someone from a...

We popped in today and had cofffes and cake which where good and at the right price we wanted to walk along the beach but our elderly family member was not able to come along so we asked it they where ok if she could...

Amazing Sunday carvery. The food is beautifully fresh and cooked to perfection. Cannot recommend highly enough. The staff are always so friendly and accommodating. Was so impressed booked for New Years Day.

Hate to leave a bad review but on this instance feel that it was valid. Popped in for some lunch after a windy sea walk. My partner ordered a hot chocolate which was fine and a slice of lemon cake which we both thought for...

I hadn't made a booking but the staff managed to squeeze me in. Had a lovely carvery, food really tasty and a great selection of vegetables...awesome gravy too. Staff very attentive. So pleased I stopped by and will definitely return. Thank you 😁

We stopped here whilst walking the coast path for some lunch, and so glad we did. The Fishfinger sandwich was by far, the best fish finger sadwich I have ever had. Excellent service, amazing view over the beach from the first Floor was gorgeous. Well...

We found this place by accident and decided to have dinner as the sun went down. The view was stunning and the food very tasty. We had fish and chips and the pan fried plaice. The bartered fish was enormous, so that we didn’t finish...

We popped at the end of a dog walk looking for a light lunch. The Beach House is dog friendly downstairs. The food was very impressive and one of the highlights of our holiday. I had bang bang cauliflower and my other half had haddock...

Really lovely staff, excellent Sunday lunch, fabulous value. Looking forward to going back sometime soon!!

A party of 12 family members were lucky enough to book the Beach House for a family get together ages rangeing from 6 months to 75 ( the birthday girl ). We all had a lovely experience, its difficult to decide which was best the...

100% recommend this place. Both the cafe and the restaurant have lovely staff and provide amazing food. The small hamlet of Seaton is so tranquil and perfect place to walk the dog on the beach after a nice meal. The views are incredible. Ideal for...

Just had a lovely evening. A beautiful restaurant with spectacular views. The food was amazing and the staff were friendly and efficient. I can't fault anything. We had such a great night and I can't wait to visit again soon

We managed to get a seat in the lovely panoramic upstairs window. Service was fine and cost normal. Weirdly the soft drinks came in a can.

What a great find! The food was outstanding for lunch and if we had of been in the area longer we would have been back for dinner. Great views and the staff were very friendly.

Fabulous dinner last night. We chose 4 of the “small plates” all tasty, fresh and delicious. Just enough for a lazy meal drinking lovely wine with beautiful views of the beach and sunset. The service was warm friendly and efficient. We will be back.

Where do I start.. We booked an evening meal for 23 people on the 29th of July. Chrissie was fantastic to deal with and we arranged to pre order. The menu catered for all of our specific needs with a great selection of pizza, pasta,...

Cannot fault this restaurant. Spot on in terms of food, location, atmosphere and staff friendliness. Loved dinner so much returned for lunch today and was not disappointed. A special thanks to the lovely Christie who was just wonderful.

Started strong with beautiful grand window seats. Ste started with an espresso martini which was good but lacked the voluptuous vanilla sweetness he was longing for, there was a limited range of cocktails. I had the orange juice (designated driver). For starts we had thé...

The Beach House must surely have the best view in this part of Cornwall whatever the weather! There is a good choice on the menu and a selection of specials, we had a mixture of specials and main menu starters and main courses all of...

Very friendly and helpful staff, dogs welcome good choice of drinks. Looking forward to visiting again when we're in the area.

Fantastic meal. Duck was cooked to perfection very tasty and the risotto went with it well, it was presented well and the seasonal vegetables were tasty, my partner had the steak which was cooked how he likes it very tender, the tomatos on the vine...

It was spot on from the food to the service & not forgetting the views The menu was small but varied, recommend the onion loaf as a side

Great burger pint of offshore.Lovely great girls serving.Would have been a 5 if it wasn't for the frozen chips.C'mon chefs peel a few spuds.Why don't they serve the upstairs menu downstairs?

After a couple of years of hit and miss food and service, the new restaurant has opened - and it is absolutely great. The decor is really lovely. The food and service is brilliant. Really recommend.

Five has had the most amazing table overlooking Seaton Beach. The food was excellent and reminiscent of Nick Barclay at his very best! We all enjoyed different dishes from the menu - for me the squid followed by prawn and mussel pasta were especially good!!...

Superb food, friendly staff and a amazing sea views. We can't praise this restaurant highly enough. It will surely be very busy in season so booking highly recommended

Amazing… not long opened. Great place, view down the beach. Attentive staff. Food was brilliant! Starters and mains. Highly recommend. Get here before the crowds arrive!

Exceptional lunch with a stunning view. The food tasted delicious, the staff were very attentive and the location ideal. Really enjoyed our Saturday lunch. We will be back!

The Beach House is a venue that is hard to beat in terms of location. The beach front position is perfect for soaking up some sun, whilst enjoying an apperitivo. Food, thus far, is yet to deliver on the exceptional front. Serving pretty basic pizzas...

We understand that The Beach House has changed hands and re-opened recently. The menu is limited at the moment but there is still a good choice. The burgers, pizza and chips were really good. The service was friendly and the view is fabulous from the...

Took the family for lunch having been here previously before the recent re-vamp. Prices were quite high but not unreasonable for the area and we placed an order for drinks, a burger and 2 pizzas. The drinks arrived quickly but after a second round of...

Great spot to chill out, great food and a good selection of drinks. Leo was a fantastic host, nothing was too much trouble. A special thank you to Chrissie for her excellent service. Very dog friendly. Even got it’s own resident ice cream van. A...

Great place, chilled, amazing gluten free pizza and cold cider. Staff lovely and really friendly. Doggie friendly with plenty of treats.

Had a really enjoyable meal here and the views from the outside tables are stunning. The food was really good, however menu quite limited and a little pricey. Would definitely come back for drinks.

We had an amazing dinner with very friendly staff. The prawn starter is out of this world. But we have to mention the chicken wings and seafood linguine which were so tasty too. The staff were all amazing. So friendly and welcoming. Please don’t worry...

Called in for lunch and were really impressed! The decor is lovely and inviting. We both had The Beach House Burger and loved it!! Absolutely delicious and so fresh! Great friendly service from the team. Great range of drinks and everything reasonably priced. The cakes...

Popped in on spec and Chrissie (not sure if correct spelling!) was so helpful and kindly squeezed us in. All of the staff were really friendly and attentive, we felt really welcome. The atmosphere was lovely and the food was excellent! We had a great...

The location is fantastic and the staff are very keen to impress as are the owners but our experience was somewhat lacking sadly as some of our ordered items turned out not to be available and/or arrived different to the menu so that we ordered,...

We have watched this place over the past 2 seasons and always pay it a visit whilst on holiday.The Beach House has a lovely vibe , great food and service.This is becoming a great place and the new owners are putting a great deal of...

You have to book to get a table here but it’s worth the wait. A laid back place looking over the beach. We were told there would be a wait but it wasn’t long. We both had the risotto, meat and veggie and both were...

Stopped off for lunch. The pizza was freshly made. I love veg my partner pepperoni so they made a half half pizza. Brilliant service nothing to much trouble, fantastic location. Will definitely go back.

The location is stunning, a new establishment. We tried the beach house for the first time, the food choice was limited but tasted really good, the service on the other hand was shocking. We felt like they were doing us a favour serving us -...

Lovely place with stunning views. The food is reasonably priced and very tasty. The staff are also friendly and accommodating even when running on a reduced team.

Currently on my holiday to Seaton, Downderry and near abouts... this place was a lovely feel to it and nice staff. - thanks for a lovely evening!

We had our lunch here a few time alway good and a great choice.Large outside area , normal prices which was nice change.

I don't like giving poor reviews but this was an expensive but awful experience. How can someone ruin a jacket potato with cheese?

This place could be so much better. We saw the words ‘handmade pizza’ and a pizza trailer as though it was a proper pizza oven but unfortunately it was a really average pizza. We saw the member of staff come out with pre made pizza...

Great pizzas and just by the sea just being done up currently, staff pleasant , may need to wait a while but grab a drink

We are local people. Went down to Beach later in the day, when kids wer back from school. Knew the Beach would be quiet then, with Holidaymakers returning Home. Have seen the Pizza van in operation for a long time. Decided to traet the kids...
