The Clock tower cafe in Fife

No visit to Pitenweem is complete without stopping at the Clock Tower Cafe. Lovely cosy atmosphere, with friendly and efficient staff. The paninis on both my visits were perfect, and the tray bakes were delicious. Can't wait to go back!

A excellent relaxed atmosphere and great food 👍

This is a really lovely cafe that sells a great selection of food and also locally made gifts. Staff were friendly and the breakfast rolls we had were really tasty. The homemade cakes looked amazing but we didn't get the chance to try them. Will definitely come here again if we are in the area.

Lovely place however got told today to wait outside in the pouring rain with a 10 month old baby as "he doesn't like people waiting inside" also no system if you are waiting. Terrible customer service in those regards.

Came today for brunch. Lovely cafe with very accommodating staff. Being Easter Weekend it was very busy but the team went above and beyond to move us from outside to inside when a table was available. Great food and reasonably priced. Would throughly recommend. Thank you for a lovely afternoon, the perfect way to start the Easter Weekend.

Soup like my mammy used to make, wholesome and hearty and the bread was delicious. Warm and friendly staff and space. Definitely recommend - the cakes looked amazing!

My wife and I had previously read the reviews for this place and decided to travel from Glasgow and check it out. We weren't disappointed. The place was packed and had a great buzz about it. My wife had the soup of the day which was a substantial bowl of spiced sweet potato soup accompanied by a lovely cheese and ham toastie. I had the baked potato with tuna, coleslaw and salad. Both meals were lovely. The service was on point and they were very friendly. The cost of the food was very reasonable. We would certainly recommend and hope to return in the future

Great place too come for lunch spoke too a few staff they recognised our accent right away were from peterhead the food was excellent definitely will be back

We were on holiday for a few days and went here for breakfast. What a great experience. The staff could not have been more welcoming and the food really was delicious. Every ingredient in the cooked breakfast was high quality and perfectly cooked. We meant to go as a one off treat but ended up going again the same week - couldn't resist. Same excellent quality that time too! Would recommend this place to anyone.

We had breakfast here and it was delicious. The tea we had here was fantastic. The cafe was busy and the service was good, as the staff was efficient and polite. A great breakfast experience.

Fantastic welcome on arrival. Great range of freshly cooked food and snacks, excellent coffee too. Very efficient and friendly staff. It was a cold day and the café could have done with a bit more warmth, otherwise definitely worth a visit.

Super friendly helpful staff, good quality tasty produce, sensible prices. No downsides. Great stop off from the coastal path.

Very dog friendly! Delicious breakfast rolls and coffees to go.

Good food, lovely homemade soup, warm cosy place.

I received a really warm welcome, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice interior, prompt service and the food was excellent. I was impressed.

Lovely friendly cheerful place, I will definitely be back 😊

Having walked along the coast path through Pittenweem several times I had no idea that this place was just up the hill. What a find! We saw the sign on the road as we were driving by and made a detour to find it, a great decision! We were lucky to get a table as someone was just leaving, very busy on a Friday early afternoon. We had a delicious peppery vegetable soup with sandwiches. Simple food, perfectly cooked and served with a smile. The cakes looked fantastic but we were full from the soup. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in the area. Highly recommended.

Delightful little cafe near the Clock Tower. Cosy atmosphere with pleasant decor and just the right number of tables, not to feel overcrowded. Staff welcoming and friendly Decent range of food on menu, including breakfast served to 12pm. I had a mug of tea, love that there’s a choice between cup and mug. Toasty was lovely with delicious side salad and amazing home made coleslaw.

Lovely little dog friendly cafe. Always had a really good experience here, and staff brought our little pup some treats over. Cakes are delicious and lots of nice lunch options. Recommend factoring in some additional time as it can get very busy.

Amazing food, amazing staff and super efficient

Very popular cafe especially with the locals. Had to wait a bit for a table but worth it. Hubby had egg on toast and a coffee with carrot cake. I had coffee with avocado and egg toast and a caramel shortcake. Lovely staff tasty food.

Absolute gem of a find. Staff were so helpful. Food was delicious. Everything was so clean and fresh. I would recommend coming here 100%. Faultless.

Lovely wee place, dog friendly. 4 hot drinks £12 - know how to do flat white and hot choc for kids. Snacks for 4 £20 Free treats for dog. Lovely friendly service seems a local favourite too. We will return

Popped into this delightful little cafe for our Sunday brekkie during a recent few days in Pittenweem. Hubby had large breakfast, myself small. Absolutely delicious and for once a really decent mug of tea. Service was excellent. Beautiful, quaint cafe and so pretty inside. Highly recommend and will definitely return.

Oh my! This is just the most perfect place to start any day . We have been coming here everyday for breakfast since we arrived 5 days ago! The staff are just fantastic, friendly, chatty and helpful and the food and the coffee just perfect. Nothing is too much trouble for them and it has been such a lovely addition to a very special time here in the Easy Neuk Cannot recommend highly enough Our black Labrador Murphy has loved it too 😉🐾🐾

Called in this cafe during a lovely week's holiday in St Monans whilst we were walking parts of the Fife coastal path. The warmth and friendliness of all the staff was heartwarming. VERY dog friendly. We had 2 hot drinks and the egg and bacon roll was to die for. Worth the slight detour from Pitenweem harbour

Amazingly friendly café. Our dog was welcome too.

The Clock Tower Cafe is excellent. Lovely surroundings, really nice kind staff, brilliant coffee and top class baking. If you're in the area, you must visit this place.

Fabulous and friendly café experience at this place in St Monans. Ideal for our post swim scran. The staff were helpful and accommodating, the food was good honest grub.

Popped into the Clock Tower Cafe very busy, but we had a table within 5 mins. We had the fruit scones with butter and jam 1 mug of cappuccino and 1 pot of tea 🍵 all well presented and on the table within a few minutes. Well done. The cafe was spotless. Staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. Highly recommend if you're in Pittenweem.

Superb lunch with lovely helpful staff set in this delightful little fishing port Excellent home made food and very good menu choices

Eat at the Clocktower twice on our trip and had good food and great service both times. Dog friendly (people friendly too!) and very clean.

Brilliant local cafe on the High Street in Pittenweem. Very friendly and perfect place for breakfast , brunch , lunch and afternoon tea in the East Neuk. Highly recommended.

Great food with great service. Very dog friendly as well.

An awesome place to spend time! Amazing food and lovely friendly staff! It's should be on everyone's bucket list!

Had breakfast here on the final day of our holiday to Fife before the long drive back to Lancashire. I’d read reviews on trip advisor about the clock tower cafe and seeing as so many were positive decided we’d stop off. All I can say is I wish we had similar locally ! Absolutely delicious breakfast. I had the veggie one, partner the full ‘Scottish’ and son a bacon and egg roll. All of it was presented really well, not the slightest bit greasy and very generous. Probably a tad more expensive than an Asda one but the quality of the ingredients was far superior. Staff extremely welcoming and friendly and the cafe itself clean and comfortable in beautiful surroundings.

My yearly visit and it was perfect. The staff are exceptional, and the food was too. One happy customer and can’t wait to do it all again next year. Thank you.

Fabulous place . The service is wonderful . Amazingly friendly and welcoming staff . We had a delicious breakfast there . You can also buy some local products there that are really tasty . It's a very cute little place with a lovely design inside . Definitely worth the visit .

This is a great cafe in the lovely location of Pittenweem. It has a very wide menu for snacks, breakfast or lunch. Tasty and well presented food. The decor is lovely with a bit of a sea side theme but also with a large, wonderful photo of old Pittenweem. The staff couldn't be more friendly. We always visit if we are in the area.

Absolutely spot on, well priced food nicely presented and tasty. They take dugs too. Very friendly staff. If there is one small criticism, Milk shake is out of a bottle.......

Great place, fabulous food, very friendly staff who had loads of time to chat and interact with us all.

Beautiful place with friendly staff and amazing food.

Called here today and had small breakfast with a slice of haggis added and my partner had larger breakfast. This was obviously all cooked freshly to order. The breakfast was delicious with all ingredients tasting lovely especially the haggis. As we ate our brekky there were clearly lots of regulars popping in who the staff knew by name and everybody, including ourselves, were greeted with a friendly welcome. There were a few tables of older diners that had obviously chosen to meet at the cafe regularly which was lovely to see. Well done on quality of food, good price point, customer service and creating a setting for everybody that was warm and welcoming.

Friendly, helpful, prompt service. Varied and extensive menu so different from anything I can get in Edinburgh eateries. Very, very reasonable prices! A local amenity with something for everyone local or visiting tourist. Please go out of your way to stop off here for breakfast, brunch or lunch.

What a lovely friendly place. Sat out in the sun enjoyed lunch and had such lovely service from such smiling friendly staff. Highly reccommend you visit here.

We are regular customers to this lovely cafe, super friendly staff, wonderful atmosphere and delicious food. Very welcoming to kids and dogs. Serves the best babyccino as well!

Lovely cafe, plenty of space inside. Dog friendly, and the staff and other customers could not have been nicer. Enjoyed our quick stop and will be back whenever we visit next.

My friend Helen and I went in for a coffee and treat. It was a lovely treat for both of us. My first time in and Helen has been in many times. Atomsphere was wonderful and welcoming. The cafe team was friendly and helpful. The bake goods were yummy and well presented. I would gladly return.

Quite a rude chap cleaning tables, other staff very pleasant.

This cafe just gets better and better. Excellent coffee and eats and deservedly popular in the East Neuk.

We are a family of 4, with 2 hungry boys. Lovely food, smiley service and great advice on the local area. Menu had good choice, nice and clean.

Popped in here for a great cooked breakfast after our coastal walk from Anstruther. Quality ingredients, well cooked & at a fair price.

Delicious panini, wide variety of fillings and lunch options. 100% would recommend for lunch

The current owners have only been operating since may 2022 so disregard earlier reviews. We stumbled across this delightful place whilst walking through a very windy Pitemweem with road works that were causing chaos! The food was excellent, the choice very wide and although we only had the afternoon tea it was excellent and we saw other meals going out which looked fabulous. The staff clearly enjoy their work. They are friendly and seem to get on and support each other well! Please visit them!

Wonderful cafe, friendly staff with a great sense of humour. The food was perfect, utterly delicious. The coffee was really good as well. Thank you.

What an amazing café! Lovely staff and great food. So welcoming to our six month old border collie puppy as well. We enjoyed it so much we visited three times in two days. Easy to see why it is the meeting hub for locals. We...

Amazing iced ginger cake and coffee, and dog friendly :)

Perfect for coffee and cake whilst walking the coast path

Good food, freshly prepared by great friendly staff. Good to see that it's dog friendly as well.

Such a lovely wee cafe. Food excellent, Staff friendly. Would highly recommend.

My first visit. Can't fault it all. Excellent choice of food at reasonable prices. Friendly staff.

A Friday morning. Very busy, had to wait for table. Good cappuccino. Lovely scone with perfect rasp jam. Good buttery apple slice. Very friendly. Will go again.

Nice café in Pittenweem. They do lunches too.

Freshly prepared food served quickly. Items were slightly under seasoned which is best, as it lets you adjust as required. Really good apple shortcake!

Lovely friendly cafe. Good selection of simple but delicious fair. We both had hot rolls bacon and sausage with a drink of tea. Very fairly priced.

Found this place, was busy and very accomodating. Food was lovely, wholesome and taisty. Service excellant. Great value for money. Highly recommended.

Stopped off here for breakfast, following a swim in the tidal pool. Full Scottish breakfast was delicious and the service was excellent. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Will definitely return when next in the area.

We had a very good lunch here. Simple, fresh food and first class service. Will definitely return in the future.

We really enjoyed our coffees while sitting outside the cafe at a sunny table. Very friendly staff and good service. Would definitely return.

First time we have been in since it changed hands. Not sure about the staff uniforms, looked a bit fancy dress for these days and my cappuchino was waaaaay too strong but otherwise a nice cafe and pleasant staff.
