Staff that listen, food that is delicious, excellent smiling service, visited twice in 5 weeks. Only mention is that Saturday afternoon music is too loud for those 1st tables. Keep up the great work

Food was tasty when the correct order was made up, had an issue with an alteration request so initial plate had to be returned. Plenty staff wondering about looking lost but had to actively ask for a drinks refresh. Very noisy in back indoor table area

Lovely building, right on the beachfront, great place for a summers afternoon lunch and catch-up, till we sat down. Minimalist lunch menu with 5 or 6 options, £16.50 for a plain burger and chips. Not for me, can't comment on food service or atmosphere as I didn't stay any longer than it took to read the menu.

If you want to come for coffee then be prepared for no communication and 30+ minutes of waiting time. Nice place with a great view. Didn't order food but from what observer looked decent. Sat outside for a coffee after a walk, had to wait for over 30 minutes. This was due to "issue with coffee machine" but was not informed whatsoever. Decent coffee, but only served in take away cups if outside.

Private party, very cool place, quite different from anywhere else in the area as it's like being in a goldfish bowl. Can't remember leaving so it must have been a good night. Cruzcampo on draught - dangerous!

Pre booked Grandsons birthday meal, as per restaurant request all meals were chosen 5 days in advance. Arrived in restaurant and seated , nice table, sat for over 15 mins before being offered drinks! I assume it was the restaurant manager that came over asking we had pre ordered, which we had he had no confirmation and blamed someone else for the order. To say the service was below par is an understatement. The starters were pretty bland, for those who ordered, My wife’s main course she ordered was unavailable and offered a Ceaser Salad, which was well below par. To top off my Grandsons meal never appeared and had to remind the manager where the meal was. It eventually appeared after most of the other members of the party had finished their main course. Also had to keep,asking for Drinks. The clearing of plates after finishing course was appalling They offered my grandson a special piece of cake for his Birthday as a token of good gesture, presentation of cake 1/10 After that other members of the party were still awaiting there desserts, to say were wrong and unappetising is an understatement So overall not a nice experience and I don’t appreciate senior members of staff blaming others or equipment for the sub standard service. Our experience for the meal and service 3/10

Shockingly bad service yesterday. Waited 40 minutes and more for seven hot drinks, most of them cold by the time they arrived and one missing. Dirty tables, unwashed dishes and was embarrassed in front of our out of town visitors. Will not be back any time soon

I was in here today really looking forward to lunch as had been recommended to me. I ordered the soup of the day - potato and leek soup. I sat with the soup for a few minutes waiting for the spoon to arrive and eventually had to go and ask for cutlery. The soup was very watery, there was no potatoes or leeks to be found was very similar to a powder base soup. I let my friend taste the soup who also agreed it was watery and tasteless. We waited for someone to come take plates away so we could order pudding however we sat for 17mins and nothing so we up and left Very disappointed with lunch and I doubt I will be back if they can’t even get a soup of the day right

Nice place, lovely setting although Broughty Ferry has so much more to offer than this. The staff were very friendly and pleasant to be honest and the food wasn't the worst but the service is shocking. Management running it with their eyes closed, so unorganized. Get yourself to The Bruach, The Ship Inn, Fisherman's Tavern, The Fort etc you'll enjoy a far superior dining experience. Get a grip Urban Beach.

I often do a 6 mile walk along the beaches and waterfront and this place is around half way. Great views and location, but can get busy - always a good sign. Good coffee and a great bacon roll - both sides buttered and three thick slices. Best in the area! Plenty of parking, accessible for wheelchairs, and stunning views of the water.

Very disappointing customer service. This is a great location with great potential. There is always a good volume of customers here due to being right on the beach and in the sun! Is a great place to stop for a drink, coffee or cake, and is dog friendly! Food service is often slow but today was beyond bad. We waited an hour and a half for a sandwich, as did 3 other tables (2 of which left with a refund before getting their food). We had to ask repeatedly during that time if our food would be long, we were repeatedly told it would be looked into. No one apologized or came to us to tell us where the food is or how long it will be. No one came to offer any explanation or offer any drinks. A plate of food came out (for a customer who was so sick of waiting and left). The manager then gave that food to a table who said they were not even waiting for food, but said it was for free as would go to waste... The 2 adjacent tables waiting for food for over an hour were not offered the food and still no apology. During this time none of the tables were cleared, so plates of half eaten food was being stacked up on empty tables by customers. There seemed to be 3 people on service as well as the manager. After again asking for an update we were told by the manager that the 2 chefs are refusing to cook. And then apparently our food was ready, but then it didnt come out. We were finally given a refund and our food as a takeaway as we waited so long. It was not very busy, it took an hour for people to get their food, but people were being turned away as the chefs couldn't do more food. The management of this situation was extremely poor, with terrible communication and lack of responsibility and accountability by the management team. This impacts urban beachs reputation and likelihood for locals coming back.

Popped by as we were looking for a new place to have breakfast and it looked perfect. We waited to be seated for a while before anyone came over. While the drinks came in decent time the food took over 45 mins to come which was surprising as it was just poached eggs and pancakes. Put a dampner on the experience even though the food was decent.

Spent a lovely afternoon here on a windy day. Staff were all excellent, friendly and attentive. Service was great. Food was delicious. Had a burger and BLTC panini. Both were fresh and very tasty. Chips were the best I've had in a very long time. We only had soda water and lime but these were very tasty too. I'm always amazed how some people seem to struggle to make a decent soda water and lime. No problem here. Everything was absolutely excellent. I can't recommend them enough. I'll definitely be back 🙂

Waited at door to be seated while member of staff chatted to friends for almost 20 minutes by which time I sat myself down. Waited another 30 minutes to be asked what we wanted but hadn’t even been given us a menu. When we asked what soup it was she didn’t know but would find out never came back. Another girl came over asked about the soup she didn’t know either. When she came back she was quite abrupt in her response and walked away didn’t ask if we were ready to order this is now 45 minutes. I had to go up and request the soup, no apology! The soup was pleasant but a little watery nice bread. I went to pay the bill and yet again the same waitress was still chatting instead of serving customers. Sorry no tip left for this awful service today and no apology. I have been many times to Urban Beach but I don’t think I’ll be back soo disappointed today.

Just ordered a takeaway latte. The service was under par- not very friendly at all. The milk was bubbly and thin and the coffee bitter. Not smooth at all. Either they use poor quality milk or the barista re-used old milk. Not good enough I’m afraid. This was just a drop in- the first time I came for food and they completely lost our order so we had to wait an hour for our food. They did give us 40% off our bill but this still means I’ve had an unenjoyable experience the two times I have been here.

The waiter was very nice and let us move tables twice because I sat near the window and the sun was hitting me in the eye, he also opened the door for us because it was very warm, funny guy and had a good conversation. Me and my friend ordered food and the service was good (15 minutes) as we had food at 12pm. He mixed up my order and got it wrong by accident and he offered to give me the original order and completely change it, I was fine with my food and they gave me it anyways although it was very salty. I got my food for half price as they put in the cheaper order so I was happy with that as they got my order wrong.

Went for lunch and it was terrible Mould on the caprese flat bread. Fish had funky smell and batter looked so pale you could see through it. My friend who is great chef worked there and said the woman head chef does nothing stands about all day then does so called paper work. Rather than focusing on food quality and training staff and actually working. He left for personal reasons. But he said he couldn't work under somebody that was less qualified than him. Such a shame as place is in a beautiful location. Of this place place had a proper head chef this ace could be amazing. Until then I shan't return.

One persons coffee wasn’t delivered so we had to ask. When it was delivered there was no sugar so we had to go hunt for a person to give us some. It was OK here but not outstanding.

Chaotic and noisy. Lots of customers and not enough staff. The wait for lunch was approximately 40 minutes so we settled for cake and coffee instead which took 20! There’s different dining areas both inside and out as well as a beer garden, which seemed to be causing confusion to the staff. Perhaps more staff and better organisation by management would improve. Until then we won’t be back.
