The Dip in Suffolk Coastal

We always come for a walk to the dip when visiting family , a great spot to sit and have coffee and cake and look out to sea , today I had one of the homemade cheese scones it was one of the best I have ever eaten , whatever the weather always a great establishment for a warm welcome and delicious fair, great ice creams in the summer and hot chocolate in the winter .

Coffee was £3.40 for a tiny cup, lukewarm. They can charge what they like as they are the only cafe open.

On a cold damp winters day when out for a walk with your pup along the dip you pass a small kiosk situated above the promenade and on this day 26th Jan we were surprised it was open. Two coffees and two paninis served up within a few minutes, the person serving was standing in for the owner and was extremely courteous. No tables or chairs were out as everywhere was deserted due to a miserable day although we were offered a couple of chairs.

Love love love the sausage roll. Such a large, elaborate and tasty food from such a small beach cafe. 100% would recommend.

They do the best egg mayo sandwiches I've ever tasted. Lovely hot cup of Yorkshire tea in a proper mug. All enjoyed at their outdoor seating area with a fabulous view of the sea.

On one visit I was so offended by the rude arrogance of the owner. Delayed serving me whilst doing whatever trivia it was, when I showed I expected better I was told off. Never shopped there since. In case there are many staff there the guy who offended arrived by light beige Honda CRV or the like, sorry if this review is based on one rogue member of staff, but I suspect as such a small kiosk it was the owner himself.

We often walk from the town to old Felixstowe along the beach and the prom with its paths further on near the golf coarse.

Staying up the road for a few days and when out walking the dog I discovered this place. Fantastic find. You can have tea in a mug and sit on the surrounding benches on the seafront or have takeaway cups. Lovely cake and fantastic hot chocolate. Saw there is sandwiches and other food available so will try this on my next walk out. Perfect views to enjoy with your cuppa too. Fantastic service.

A lovely find that a kiosk on a regular walk does vegan cake and ice cream options. Just what you need when having a walk on the seaside.

Incredibly helpful staff, very patient and understanding with payment when we hadn't anticipated it would be cash only! Given time to source and count coins, and delicious ice creams were enjoyed in the sunshine. Can't recommend enough :)

Great pitstop for a walk on the beach. Lots of yummy things to eat and drink (lovely home made cakes and delicious coffee) all served with a smile:)

Lovely little shack overlooking the sea. Great tea and coffee, lovely home made cakes, superb ice cream and the friendliest staff you could imagine....will certainty be coming here again!

The place is small, but they have many chairs and tables around that everyone can find a place to seat. They have home baked cakes and they are amazing! They have sandwiches, snacks, ice-cream and drinks (hot and cold). The coffee is lovely, the food is delicious and the view is peaceful. We always go there when we are in Felixstowe, it's like one of the must visit places. Recommend it to everyone!

Just minutes from our holiday home we often stop on the passing for a quick ice - cream on the go! Always very friendly & service with a smile!

Perfectly peaceful, ideal for walking, clearing your head, jogging and appreciating the ocean. My happy place.

Mi marido me apetecía un chapuzón en el mar en la playa de Felixstowe norte esta mañana. . . Y después disfrutamos de una taza de café y reparadores en este quiosco de panini práctico, mientras que yo tenía perfectamente pastel. tostado Muy chicos sirve - volveremos cuando esté en la zona.

Although we frequently visit Felixstowe this is the first time we have stopped for a drink at the dip.My husband's latte was excellent --I had tea which is pretty much bog standard.The young girl who served us was very pleasant

Lovely spot to stop and indulge in coffee or ice cream while promenading the beach. All set out with chairs & little tables, friendly operators, good service.

On the way home we stopped for a break and saw this hut by accident. We had a cappucino with a great ocean view. Such a lovely break.

When it is warm enough, this is without doubt my favourite spot to pause in Felixstowe, there are no crowds, lovely beaches, wild swimming and to top it all The Dip café. Quality items sit happily alongside traditional treats and for me anywhere that sells Nossage Rolls (Veggie) is always worth a visit. Owner is relaxed, friendly and today was obviously loving his job but who wouldn't with such a huge sky and sea view to gaze at, brilliant.

Ice cream and refreshements with a smile. So handy when walking along the sea front or spending a day at the beach!

I may be biased as a new beach hut owner but this is an amazing little placeNothing is too much trouble for the ownersThey go out of their way to help and adviseThe ice cream is superb..the craik wonderful and you might just hear a guitar in the distanceBide here awhile on your walk past the golf club and you will never be disappointedPS The Loos are nearby too!!

Lovely place for sea fishing but sometimes depending on the tide you might have to sit on sea wall,my friend caught a large lobster here last year,and a bass! Whiting are in now just keep inside the middle of the bays if you go slightly over you might get the odd snag!

This is a jewel. Lovely Beach hut , great views and of course fantastic ice - cream and home made cakes. Such friendly and happy staff , I would come all year round if I could. Have Fish and Chips at the Ferry Boat Inn and then Ice -Cream here . We travel from London for this fantastic Treat. You will enjoy.

We drive 45 minutes to get the best coffee I've ever tasted and washed down nicely with ice cream to match! i recommend the lemon meringue

Came with my family for ice cream, so much choice and it was lovely. The lemon icr cream was my favourite :)

This is a Lovely spot to have a coffee or tea and piece of homemade cake. Great views friendly service -a welcome break after a bracing walk

A pleasant spot to sit with a coffee and a piece of homemade cake in the morning sunshine looking out to sea!

Tasty ice creams, lovely view in the sunshine and even a song to accompany it! Well worth a visit, hope to visit again soon if I get the chance!

The Dip is the perfect spot to stop and have a hot drink and snack.Bearing in mind the size of the premises, there is a great range of goodies available - cofede, tea, latte, etc, milkshakes, homemade cakes, biscuits, sandwiches, etc.Lovely beach setting - nothing better on a nice day than sitting at THE DIP overlooking the sea - bliss.
