The Bow Window in Lancaster

Popular cafe/restaurant. Classy! Only had coffee so lucky to get a seat before the lunchtime rush! Good views across the bay to the Lake District. Attentive friendly service and good coffee. What more can you want! Also serves ice cream.

Excellent food and friendly service. The Bow window was very clean with great views across the bay. Good selection of cakes and meals. It appeared to be quite popular with the locals - which is always a good sign.

Found the cafe purely by chance and I have to say what a find. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Good value for money, excellent food and first class customer service and care. I highly recommend this place. A real gem!

Great to have found this gem of a cafe. Great food, good value for money. Staff efficient and friendly. The cafe itself is lovely. Decor is light and airy and spotlessly clean. Definitely recommend a visit if you're in the area.

Was looking forward to going as it had good reviews, had veggie breakfast my friend had normal breakfast first of all order was was wrong, mushrooms tasted boiled rater than fried, greasy hash browns, hard poached egg, tomato has so much black pepper on, poached egg wasn't runny and bacon very hard. Toilet wasn't present some one had been before and made a mess I cleaned toilet but still couldn't go. Shame staff were lovely. Won't be back in a hurry.

We arrived here on the 17th of April after a pretty long walk so we had an appetite. I orderd the very large breakfast and my wife ordered the Tea cake. The Tea cake was the best one she has ever eaten with delicous Jam, and Butter, along with what seemed like an endless pot of tea with fresh tea leaves. My breakfast was extremely good. I have never seen such beautifully prepared poached eggs in my life that just oozed the most delicous yoke. The sausages were beautiful as was the beans, and crispy toast. Hash browns great. The Bacon was nice but seemed to be unsmoked. The only downside I could find was that the black pudding was not great, not because of the coooking of it, but I have eaten that brand before and it does not have great flavour, (Also being a scotsman we have a refined palate for black pudding lol). The latte was so good, that I had two. The staff were extremely friendly, and helpful. This cafe / restaurant sits on the main road across from the promenade, and is tastefully decortated. I would recommend it as the best breakfast I have had in 11 years of coming here.

Rarely do I write a review but this is an exception. I visited to have breakfast with family following verbal reviews from friends. This was a excellent well cooked breakfast from a menu with ample choices for all. We choose a full English breakfast, which was very well presented, it was hot and with excellent quality products. The bacon and sausages were well cooked and the poached eggs were exceptional, perfectly cooked. The greeting and service was pleasantly welcoming, polite and was duly supported by excellent service. With coffee, and ample toast, this really was an excellent breakfast. The beautiful view across the Bay only added to the experience and sets standards for others to follow. Congratulations to management and staff. Thank you.

Saw the reviews for this place and decided to give it a visit. No reservation as it was a last minute decision. Place was buzzing so was very happy to be sat down almost immediately. ( make a reservation) . Staff were perfectly polite and attentive . Service was prompt despite the busy time. We ordered fish and chips, small and large. The small is a decent enough size for a light lunch . Was eyeing the table next to us.. mushroom strog looked amazing as did the all day breakfast as did the pie and chips. Decently priced fantastic view of the bay and delicious food. I’ll definitely be visiting again.

We were a family group visiting the area for Christmas and the moment we entered the Bay Window we all knew we’d made the right decision. Staff were bright, efficient and very welcoming and quickly seated us and took our orders for late breakfast / early brunch. I opted for the “light” breakfast which turned out to be “full” by any reckoning. Others went for sausage baps and in one case a chocolate extravaganza. All food arrived quickly, piping hot and was all superb! My “light” breakfast was one of the best I’ve ever had. Sausages were particularly tasty and the chocolate cake was as tasty as it looked. Prices were very reasonable and staff could not have been more helpful in a quiet, efficient and friendly manner. Top marks to this restaurant with its staff, fine food and superb views through the lovely bay windows across Morecambe Bay. We will definitely be back soon and I would defy anyone not to be impressed with the Bow Window restaurant!

Nice cafe with lovely views out onto the bay... Friendly staff serving good quality food ...Popped in here before the football.

My friends and i visited the bow window a few weeks ago and as soon as we arrived we were made to feel very unwelcome. The two women that were waiting on at the time really need a lesson in customer service because the way they spoke to our party and other customers was just shocking. We felt uncomfortable for the entire time and made to feel like they didn't want us there. Personally I think they want a certain type of clientèle. Safe to say we won't be returning as there are plenty of local cafes that would welcome our buisness!

Breakfast - Fancied a full English so decided to walk round the corner to the Bow Window. Really great location, very clean and modern! Very friendly and warm reception. Ordered the full English - Amazing - very well cooked and very good produce ! 10 out of 10 ! £10 for full English including toast and tea 🙏🏻

We stopped off on our way through Lancaster. When we arrived there was unfortunately no tables available but the staff were very welcoming and apologetic that there were no seats. We were just after a cup of tea so they made us some lovely take away teas. Young man who served us was very friendly and helpful. While in the cafe we could see the view was excellent and they have really taken advantage of their view with beautiful big windows.

We had a lovely lunch in this cafe and the staff couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable. Highly recommend it.

We have visited this Cafe 3 times over the last Month. we travel to Morecambe from Blackpool every week end. To go to the indoor Market etc. we have had lunch at many of the cafe in the area. But NONE match up to the Bow Cafe. the quality of food and the brilliant pleasant staff make it a great day out. we had our family over from Qatar for there usual summer break and they have all said what a wonderful cafe this is. BUT PLEASE beware the portions are Tasty BIG and hot. And the same goes for the sweet selection, We found the quality of food to be worth every penny. This Cafe will certainly be our regular sunday lunch stop off.

Parents business, definitely recommend and chefs great customer service and ice cream. Wonderful staff and great managers

I had been telling my daughter what a nice little place this was so we popped in yesterday for coffee and cake with her two little ones. Our reception was unbelievably rude. There appeared to be one table occupied as we arrived but the staff...

Just a really nice independent cafe/restaurant selling great home cooked food. We had fish & chips twice and a sandwich for our 3 year old. They have a few toys to keep you young ones entertained - great idea! The staff were super pleasant throughout.

Lovely restaurant in Bare, serves breakfast, snacks, ice creams. Ordered small portion (still ample size) scampi and homemade chips served with coleslaw and salad instead of peas. All piping hot, quick service and friendly staff.

This was our first visit to Morecambe and we stumbled across bow window cafe after a visit to the Happy Mount Park. Even though we arrived at noon most of the tables were already reserved. However the staff worked really hard to fit us in....

Visited recently when on holiday in the area. Very friendly staff and efficient service. Breakfast portions are pretty big - to put it mildly. Would like to visit again, when in the area, and sample lunch

We called in as walking through and although we hadn't booked and it was busy the lady found us a table and we enjoyed an excellent brunch at a very reasonable price. Many thanks for fitting us in and for the great service.

We are currently on holiday in Morecambe and my hubby has gone for a walk to Fleetwood, so I decided to have a walk around the block, due to being currently on crutches can't walk to far! Came across The Bay Window and decided to...

First time since living in Morecambe for 15 years and definitely the last , after experiencing the deep fat fried bacon bun it was pretty disgusting 🤮

Visited today for a late lunch a year after our last visit. We were not disappointed, excellent food, attentive service and fantastic views. Highlights: a huge top quality all day breakfast, scrummy fish and chips, ginger sponge and custard (mmmmm) and the best ever millionaires...

A huge thanks to Beth and her team for making my mum's 90th birthday special last weekend. From securing the reservation to finish there was excellent communication despite the miles between. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them to meet everyone's needs. Would...

Great food, great views. I visited Friday morning around 10:30. There was a couple of folk in but not busy. Food was excellent, I enjoyed the eggs benadict and a black coffee. Both very good. And served quickly. I will definitely visit again with my...

We fancied a full English breakfast so went on trip advisor and found the bow window, the weather was not great so the outside eating area was closed and unfortunately there was no way I could have got my wife’s electric wheelchair through the door.

We have just had a breakfast, the first time back since lockdown. We had both forgotten how good the food and service was,with fantastic views.. 10/10 again

Our first visit to the Bow Window but it certainly won’t be the last. Had all day breakfast which was delicious and hubby had sticky toffee pud and custard which he said was the best he’s had and I had Belgian waffle which I can’t...

Lovely cafe serving great food in a lovely ambiance.The chips are genuinely home made (from actual potatoes !) on the premises and the view across Morecambe Bay to the Lake District fells are superb (play 'name that fell' while you're having lunch).The lovely lady who served us did assure us that, on occasions, the tide does actually come in too. As an infrequent visitor to Morecambe I'll have to take her word for it because I've never seen it in :)Suggest you book ahead and ask for a window seat for the best views.

You need to book at lunchtimes. We called on off chance and managed to get a table. Had a superb steak veg pie chops and peas and a roast beef hot ciabatta stuffed with onion gravy very good and very filling.Loose tea in teapot served with a tea strainer, novel. Desserts looked amazing, cakes ice cream but to be honest we were too full.Great value for such lovely food.Staff were lovely, happy, pleasant and smiley.

We visited for lunch and booked a table outside- this place gets very busy at lunchtimes. Great food and very good staff, and a great view over the bay.

2pm table for 2 booked in advance. Soup, Scampi & a Sundae for just over £20. Absolute bargain with the discount but still great value at £40 odd.

Stopped for lunch after reading another review. Very busy but was able to get a table outside with a lovely view over the bay. Covid friendly setup, staff welcoming and excellent service. Food was great but the steamed sponge puddings were superb. Can thoroughly recommend.

Lovely day, lovely lunch. As with all restaurants there can be a disappointment but we have been eating in the Bow Window for years and its usually very good.

Really impressed with this place. Enjoyed a lovely lunch there sat outside. Service was excellent. Thought of everything re Covid as well.. felt very safe and comfortable. I would recommend.

Had breakfast here with a friend, really nice welcoming place. Staff were so attentive and friendly, food was excellent

In the late 1980s I worked on White Lund and had lunch in the Bow Window almost every day. I always visit when in Morecambe, although I am long retired, living in Bolton. Wife and self went there as soon as they opened at 10.30 am on a Sunday morning. We has the "small" English breakfast and that set us up for the day. The place has been completely re-modelled but still retains its cozy feel and good value for money.

It was certainly looking a lot like Christmas when three of us arrived at the Bow Window for a festive season lunch...carols and seasonal songs were playing, a nicely decorated tree with twinkling lights graced one corner and there was plenty of glitter....the scene was set!And it proved to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience - Christmas with all the trimmings!Starters were excellent - home-made soup; bacon and black pudding stack; and an appetising fishcake.Two of us tucked into generous helpings of succulent turkey for mains while the third member of the party chose the roast beef - all got an enthusiastic thumbs up.The quality of the food was excellent, offering great value for money, and the service, with very attentive and welcoming staff, was exceptional.The Bow Window can be proud of its record - as impressive as the view is from its famous bow window, far out across Morecambe Bay to the Lakeland hills.Happy Christmas!

A café of the highest order. Good food and at a very reasonable price, pleasant staff in lovely surroundings

We decided to stop at the Bow Window on a ride out . We used to go many years ago when our boys were young . What a lovely surprise the place had been made over .It was bright & clean with crisp white table clothes. We were met by friendly staff who showed us to a table. My wife ordered warn Brie with chutney & side salad.My self tuna sandwiches with salad & home made coleslaw. Both very fresh & very tasty. The staff came several times to see if we needed anything else. Highly recommend the Bow Window.

Called at the Bow Window for lunch whilst having a walk along the front at Morecambe.What a great little place with home cooked food, courteous and efficient service and a great menu.It was so busy that we had to sit outside but, as the weather was beautiful, we didn't mind a bit. The salads were super and the puddings were lovely.Fantastic ice cream sundaes with plenty of mint chocolate pieces and vanilla and mint choc chip ice cream. Just Scrumptious!We will definitely be back!

We stumbled upon this place whilst on holiday in Morecambe. We were walking to Happy Mount Park and stopped off for lunch. The food was good and the service too. Worth a visit.

My husband and I visited yesterday and with the weather being lovely , warm and sunny we chose to sit outside . The outside seating area was scruffy with poorly maintained planters consisting of artificial plants and real weeds. The picnic benches were also poorly maintained! I was also disappointed to be given our tea and coffee in paper cups .. Even though we were drinking outside I would have appreciated proper crockery.I also found the price of the refreshments expensive. I have sat outside many establishments in this town for refreshments and have always been offered proper crockery .... tea pot, cup, saucer, spoon....... sitting alfresco doesn’t mean you have to slum it!!! The price of the refreshments were very expensive for a bog standard instant coffee and a tea bag. Needless to say it is somewhere that we will not be returning.

Food and service is always excellent here. I love the fact that you can get traditional British food here, and don't have Mediterranean cuisine foisted on you.

Stopped off for games, egg and chips during one if our favourite local walks. Simple, clean, good food and friendly service. Always worth a visit. Goid value for money.

Squeezed us in for Sunday lunch after walking away from Toby Carvery for abysmal service. Pleasantly thrilled at the result. Great food, excellent staff, and amazing service.

Without doubt the best afternoon tea I’ve ever had. Everything was beautifully fresh, very well presented and very tasty. We visited for my birthday and the table was beautifully decorated for the occasion. Staff were very friendly and welcoming too. While there we saw all day breakfasts, lunches and snacks being served and everything looked fantastic! HIGHLY recommended

Food is superb and fresh. The only reason is have given it four stars is i had to pay again for another cup of coffee. When you pay Nearly £10 for a full English and toast, it would be nice if extra coffee was offered free of charge. No complaints otherwise.

Visited with two friends. Horrible dry fruit scones x 3 obviously stale and microwaved, very disappointing!

Stopped of for a drink and a snack. Quick service, really friendly and lovely home cooked ham sandwich

My sister was made to pay for an extra tea cup £1.95Very appalling service the girls were not polite and very unprofessional. They should learn to treat their customers the same no matter how different we look to the rest of their customers. We were served last and will never go in there again. My sister came from Leeds and we were taking her around Bare . I was so disappointed

Great portion sizes, every time, food always served hot and not tepid, as so many places do.

Lived in Morecambe until 2014, had never been in the Bow Window. Visit often now when seeing family, couldn’t believe how good it is. Steak pie is unbelievable and the home made chips are second to none. Great views & great service. Thanks 👍🏻

Four of us had lunch and the food was fine even though they had no jacket potatoes, which was my first choice. Very busy and obviously very popular but soup, ciabatta and brie all ordered and served very quickly. The staff were fab, extremely polite and efficient. We felt it was a little on the expensive side for a café. It was a miserable wet day and quite misty so unfortunately no view but guess it would be lovely on a better day.

We asked for the pie but it was not available so we both had a roast beef dinner. The food was ok but the Yorkshire pudding could have been better, it was a bit chewy. Nice staff. We thought paying over £12 each was a bit much.

Took auntie here for her 97th birthday today, and she wasn't disappointed. An excellent lunch-time menu, starting at 11.45am just after the breakfasteers were finishing. Had to really as auntie was itching to get to the Bingo and she was in a hurry to get her lunch sorted! Honestly... they don't make them like her anymore. Small orders of fish and chips with mushy peas was sufficient and very tasty. Pot of tea each and good friendly service . To top it all a fantastic view of the Lake District and Morecambe Bay. Simple home cooking on the basics so no complaints on the food or the overall prices.Three lunches, three drinks, one sweet...£33.00, very reasonable. Parking is easy along the promenade and some very interesting shops to browse on Princess Crescent. Very nice and pleasant lunch, will go again..

Visited here with my husband last Saturday. Enjoyed it so much that I brought my 83yr old mum for lunch today. Did not disappoint and we will be back.

Must be the best breakfast for miles around. Everything was fresh, top quality and plentiful. The decor and atmosphere are excellent and the staff are first class. An absolute must.

Visited as part of a group of five people for lunch. The food was great quality, freshly prepared, and served by friendly attentive staff. We can highly recommend their steak and vegetable pie, huge chunks of melt in the mouth steak. Their chips are excellent too! The choice of desserts was good, and again excellent quality. Probably not the cheapest cafe for lunch in the area but well with the price for the excellent quality food. Highly recommended, will visit again when we’re back in the area.

I am so glad I booked a table! This cafe in Bare Village is very popular, especially on Saturdays. Food and service were both excellent, with a fabulous view of Morecambe Bay . All four of us had something different, and we all cleared our plates! No room for puddings, but they did look good too. Recommended for a relaxed and tasty lunch.

This cafe is superb. The position of it means that the corner seats can lookout across Morecambe Bay and on a sunny day that means excellent views, lovely foodcas well, perfectly presented. This really is one of the best cafe's in Morecambe.

I had a sandwich lunch with my elderly mother. The tea was made with leaf tea and tasted really nice. Over all a pleasant place to have lunch with a fantastic view. The reason we stopped off here is that Mum can't walk far and there was parking just outside. We will be going again.

Stopped off in Morecambe for a break from driving. What a gem of a small restaurant. Great cuppa tea, made with real loose tea. Well worth the visit.Another plus is the great views of the Lake District.

Only had coffee but felt I had to comment as at £2.60 for a small (very small) latte it is dearer than even the large chains.

As a chef I compare everybody's breakfasts to mine and once you have found somewhere outstanding I will always go back. The bow window is always the start to a perfect Sunday, you are greeted with a very polite and smart Service Team the decor stands out above all the other breakfast bars in Morecambe and Lancaster! We always order the lighter breakfast with toast and tea it is well presented and a very clean breakfast. I just wish it could stay open a little later so we could maybe have evening meals there.

Eat here regularly and staff are always friendly, food is lovely and always cooked to perfection. The Sunday lunch is a good size as is the full english.

After again killing time over their gigantic breakfast whilst my car was being serviced locally, I was struck by the improvements in both food quality and service.

Earlier we had Afternoon Tea with Prosecco to celebrate our anniversary. It was beautifully presented and had generous portions. It had a good variety of sandwiches. I especially liked the roasted pepper with spicy mayonnaise sandwich on the vegetarian option. It’s lovely when there’s something in addition to cheese and egg. Also scone with jam and cream, a large selection of cakes and an Eton mess dessert. We have eaten here a few times and have always enjoyed the food although vegetarian choice is limited. The staff are lovely and the service excellent. Fabulous view of Morecambe Bay too.

My wife and I visited here for lunch My wife had the fish and chips and I had the steak and vegetable pie both were beautifully cooked , served piping hot, and were utterley fantastic could not have been better, The staff were also excellent, efficent,very polite and a pleasure to deal with. We also asked for a pot of tea which came made with proper leaf tea and a strainer The premises were nicely situated, spotlessly clean,warm and comfortable This place is an absolute pleasure will most certainly go here again when next in Morecambe. Very Highly Recommended.

Visited here for breakfast on a number of occasions. Good quality breakfast and great service :-) I would definitely recommend visiting

This is in a great location on the seafront in Morecambe. The cafe has an extensive menu with a good choice. The Coffee was excellent and they also sell alcohol. My wife had soup and I had a cheese and red onion chutney ciabatta. Both excellent.

I am a local person to the area so I thought I would call in to see what the place was like. The restaurant appeared clean tidy & friendly. However the layout is poorly setup

We visited on a Friday morning and found a table quickly. We were greeted with a friendly hello as we walked in, which is lovely. The lady who gave us the menu was friendly and made us feel at ease. The food we ordered was perfect and good value, we all enjoyed it. The waiting staff were very polite and greeted us with a smile, during our meal they asked us if everything was ok and asked if we needed anything else. It became quite busy but the staff were profressional and had time for everyone. I loved the decor and found The Bow Window very clean and tidy. We all would be very happy eat here again.

You know what your getting, standard doesn't vary always to a good standard. Staff always vary pleasant.

newly redecorated very friendly staff and owners they don't serve food all day but what they do serve looked lovely we had coffee and sticky toffee pudding we arrived about 2.30 they had just stoppe4d serving food but the place was very busy so that a good sigh you can park on the main road just near the bow

Really enjoyable lunch, staff very helpful and friendly, plenty of variety on the menu, it was really busy,but didn't have...

A great lunch, with a great menu, is not cheap but u get what u pay for, good quality, v...

A delightful cafe. Basic food well prepared and presented. What more could one want. Staff attentive and very friendly.

Came with the family for breakfast, delicious food and they catered brilliantly for my children who have a dairy allergy....

Back again for breakfast as it was good last time,this time the price had jumped by a quid,well the toast was not included with the breakfast? So an extra charge was added,pushing the price well beyond what you would want to pay for a full English. It's back to sainsburys,down the road for a much cheaper,equivalent. (Toast included)

A delightful friendly little cafe in the forefront of Morecambe Bay. Great service Great views and great service.

Called in for a late lunch after seeing reviews on TripAdviser. Absolutely nothing to complain about. The `All Day Breakfast` was delicious and the service was quick and cheerful. We found a parking space less than a minute's walk away then took a walk in the sunshine into Morecambe along the splendid new promenade with the amazing views across the bay. Unfortunately they'd closed by the time we got back otherwise we'd have popped in for another coffee. Not a criticism, but the actual room looks a lot brighter than the picture here suggests.

Firstly the people that wrote the review titled Sat Lunch I think are totally out of order Even if they were not happy they could have been less vehement in their comments.I have visited this establishment twice in two days both within the same time as each other which was approx 12.15 pm.I was escorting my elderly aunt as we had had a trying and tiring morning viewing nursing homes.We both ordered the same both days myself two scones with cream and jam and my aunt toasted teacake along with a pot of tea and a American coffee with hot milk.Both days the food was excellent value for money ( £10.30p) and the service was as usual efficient and friendly.I didn't compare prices with other establishments because if you pay a little more it is rewarded by the outstanding clear horizon and busy promenade.Its a very busy cafe and has an excellent range of choices.I wish them well for the future

I went to the Bow Window for lunch with a friend. You cannot fault the service. I asked her rahter cheekily for poached eggs from the breakfast menu, it was not a problem. Fabulous. Soup of the day was leek and potato, tasty, but a little thin. Well worth a visit for good food and incredible views over the bay to the Lakes.

Visited last Friday for lunch. Very good food and excellent service by the very pleasant staff. Good location on the sea front.

Gordon Ramsey needs to make over this cafe! Very expensive in line with competition. Atmosphere of a funeral parlour with sad music and purple black and white decor..((great place to hold a wake) polite but clueless teenagers out front who didn't think to tell us or offer a kids menu when we arrived with a child who had a jacket potato with hardly any filling my sandwich was greasey and made me feel sick all afternoon fish and chips were ok owners need to check out competition and what they are offering better for less money and we eat out a lot .or maybe they have a captive audience in bare.

Visiting the area I took my mother out for lunch to this establishment. Roadside parking outdoors dependent on seasonal traffic. Well decorated inside and beautiful views overlooking Morecambe bay. The menu had the usual favourites. For mains I went for the scampi whilst my mother went for the fish and chips. The waitress service was efficient and amiable. Very traditional crisp white tablecloths also set the scene.The food was well cooked tasty and of ample proportions. Thoroughly recommended for anyone in the area who wants to experience a good traditional café/restaurant environment

We called in on our way to the kite festival with out 1 year old son and two other couples with their one year olds. We all managed to be seated together which was great. My wife and I ordered a breakfast and a light breakfast. It was delicious very tasty and worth the money! Our son had tuna sandwiches which were packaged up after so he could take them away as he didn't finish them. This was really helpful. The drawbacks were that the table and place mats were not cleaned down before our food arrived. My wife ordered soya milk for her tea and the first jug was off so we sent it back, unfortunately the second jug of soya milk was also off. The tea was knocked off our bill but always slightly concerning when things are off. We will definitely try again as the food was lovely.

Just dropped in on the off chance of a coffee. What a pleasant surprise, lovely surroundings, white table clothes and excellent staff. The menu catered for everyone including gluten free bread. We just had a sandwich and coffee, superb food, it wasn't expensive either. Well worth a visit.

On Easter Monday the 3 of us popped in for lunch. There was a table free and I was impressed with the new decor. Two of us had the roast chicken dinner which was a good portion with perfectly cooked chicken and veg, and two roast and new potatoes. The only thing less good were the Yorkshire puddings which were stodgy. The other meal enjoyed was the scampi and chips. The staff were friendly and efficient. Happy to visit again.

Visited with a friend for breakfast and will definitely be back! The breakfast was fabulous and the service was great :-)

A quick walk from our flat, the Bow Window is a lovely quiet atmosphere for our morning coffee. The cappuccino was particularly excellent.

Been here a couple of times in the last 2 months, each time has been lovely. The prices are competitive with other places I have visited and the portions are on the large side, not managed to fit in a pudding yet! Highly recommended food and beautiful views across the bay.

Called here for a cuppa as we were walking down the front. As we were leaving we were both saying how nice it was.....when we looked at the menu.....and went back in, we decided to av lunch here. Was fab-we had the fish n chips followed by the apple & berry crumble. Everything was top notch and the staff were so friendly. Really great experience & the sea views were a treat. Thank you

I came here for my grandad birthday and he had a nice time. The place is clean and tidy enough and service was variable depending upon who you got.It serves alcohol however only in bottles so this needs to be remembered.Menu has your usual cafe fayre and has a nice view of the bay. Fine for elderly relatives or anyone else passing for a bite.

Been away from the area for a number of years, and just return, decided to pop in for a quick lunch with are young child, used to go there as a child my self. Great menu lots of choices breakfast, light bites, full meals. Staff friendly, prices ok for the good quality. Only complaint was still got black pudding, with all day breakfast when ask not. Will be back

We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon at about 3pm. The place was empty bar one other couple and we were told on entering the door they'd stopped serving hot food. We ordered two coffees and two bits of traybake 'cake'. Came to just over £10!! We could have walked a few yards further up Princes Crescent and had two hot meals in the Dog and Partridge for £8 in total. Despite the place being not busy the floor was strewn with food remnants and crumbs. Decor is okay, a bit rough round the edges, staff pleasant enough but we won't be back at those prices. We don't mind spending money in cafes and restaurants but only if it's worth it, I'm afraid we left feeling a bit 'shafted'.

My friends had arrived from Manchester and I took them on a walk along the prom and then we decided to drop into the Bow Window for some lunch. It was very pleasant and the waitress was very welcoming. We would recommend the Bow Window.
