The Guardhouse Cafe in Torbay

We visited your cafe after a walk to Berry head with our 2 dogs. It was a beautiful afternoon and you were busy. However, the staff were welcoming and polite and it was lovely to see the support one young person was giving to a new member of staff. Your staff are a credit to you. I ordered a cream tea. The scone was huge and warm and delicious. On a second visit, I had a wonderful salad with goats cheese and beetroot. Fantastic! Thank you.

What a find! I would say the best cafe in the Brixham area... Fantastic breakfast with fantastic views over Torbay. The cost of 2 breakfast and coffee was round £21.

Lovely setting when the weather’s good. We bring team cockapoo up here when in Brixham. Marisa had the BLT and I had a fish goujon sandwich. Lovely food, and they also do lovely coffee. All for under £20.

We visit here in the winter and summer but we were made to feel most unwelcome today by an officious member of staff. As we sat at a table for twio without being seated. Visit somewhere else for a warmer welcome. We did not jump a queue! a 4 were waiting for a bigger table. We shall not be back.

We had a great family celebration for 32 of us. The food was excellent: the staff so very helpful and kind: and the setting is unique

Absolutely delicious BLT for me also Fish Goujon Sarnies for other family members. Staff were very friendly and helpful. It was so good we returned after a walk for coffee and cake, again delicious.

We really enjoyed our lunch at the Guardhouse cafe. Staff were warm and welcoming on arrival, despite being busy. The food was great, well cooked and nicely presented. The cafe is also dog friendly so that was a bonus too!

We had a lovely breakfast at the Guardhouse Cafe, huge doorstop bacon sandwich and a pot of tea. The bacon was crispy, bread super soft and it was huge! Staff are welcoming and when we went, it wasn’t too busy. There were ALOT of regulars with dogs that obviously meet up for coffee, so lots of tables were moved about to accommodate them. I expect in the summer, it would be too busy for me personally but with great food and an amazing view, I can understand the attraction!

Went on a wet day, walked from Brixham. Had the biggest crab sandwich with salad and crisps then shared a delicious cream tea with hubby. Both amazing. Definitely recommend-staff really pleasant and didn’t mind the wet coats leaving a puddle on the floor

A fantastic cafe, plenty of outside seating,in a wonderful scenic location. Delicious and beautifully prepared food served by lovely smiley friendly staff. Great coffee and probably the best bacon sandwich in Devon.

Fantastic spot! Indoor and outdoor seating with magnificent views. Great cafe with a lovely menu. Staff very welcoming, thanks. Our son said "Wow this is a GREAT cafe!"

Arrived with my dog , both wet and muddy from the coast path but made very welcome . The home made soup special was ideal with generous chunks of fresh bread and this came with complimentary dog biscuits . Other orders that were coming out of the open kitchen seemed of a good size also

Silly old fool six months on from a stroke managed to make it to the cafe for an excellent lunch in glorious sunshine followed by coffee & cake but then found legs didn’t want to get him back to the car park… Extremely kind manageress got her car & dropped us back down. Above & beyond - sincere thanks.

The staff were so friendly, and the food was delicious and at a reasonable price. Beautiful views over the cliffs of Berry Head.

Visited for breakfast - very generous portions and service excellent as always. Then after a very long walk went back for a cream tea. Fantastic value and just such a lovely place, only wish I lived closer

Visited a few times over half term with my family while we explored the Berry Head. Lovely food and really welcoming staff. Gluten free options were also really clear. We will definitely visit again.

O Dear! We have the pleasure of visiting South Devon quite regularly and often visit The Guardhouse Cafe for a delicious Breakfast or Lunch. However last week was a disappointment to say the least! We entered the Cafe to receive the usual warm welcome and handed menus to peruse. A few more regular/local people entered and were each warmly welcomed and attended to while we waited - and waited. After nearly 20 minutes of waiting to have our order taken we realised that "the regulars" came first so up and left - very disappointed as well as hungry! Yes, regular patrons SHOULD be looked after but also visiting customers who may well return in future.

A lovely location for afternoon tea overlooking Berry Head near Brixham. Very good sandwiches, enormous scones and good soup. Friendly service.

We came for Breakfast on saturday morning, we had a very warm welcome when entering the cafe, excellent choice on the menu, i chose the Bubble and Squeak on the special board, it was delicious, husband was very happy with his full english, nice that you use local products, including the tea bags. Excellent customer service skills. Thankyou to all staff, we will return.

Never disappoints. Always great food and service, very dog friendly. Only ever had the breakfast menu I definitely want to go back for lunch one time

We decided to have breakfast here before our long trek back to the Midlands to walk the dog and fill our belly’s. Great location with views over Brixham and Berry Head, the most dog friendly cafe we have ever been to and great choice of breakfasts. I went for the full English and my wife bacon and scrambled egg. Super friendly staff and very reasonable prices. What is not to like.

This is a great location on Berry Head with sea views all around. The service is very friendly and the food good quality. Dog-friendly inside and out.

Beautiful food, really fresh and nice and hot 👍 visited twice last week, had vegan breakfast and guardhouse full English. Then had vegan sausage lettuce tomato doorstep sandwich, and the pancakes with bacon. Great tea and coffee, good size pot of tea, prices really good compared to other places in Brixham who serve breakfast. Generous servings and great quality ingredients. We've been a fair few times in the past and it's always delicious ❤️ friendly, professional staff and really dog friendly. Lots of other places could learn from this one, they get it all spot on.

Our friends took us here on our first visit to brixham and we are so pleased they did. Amazing breakfast topped by breathtaking views. Very good value for money and staff were really attentive and happy. We can’t wait to come back.

This is a lovely cafe in a wonderful location, high above the sea with views on all sides. The breakfasts are excellent, as are the cheese scones and cakes. Service is very friendly and helpful. Dogs very welcome! We went every morning during our 3 day stay in Brixham.

Found this little gem last weekend whilst out and about with family. Really friendly attentive staff, reasonable price, great coffee and cake. What’s not to like! Absolutely recommended.

We stopped off at the cafe during a fabulous hike along the SW Coast Path. We were blessed with amazing weather but then stumbled across this gem of a place in such a perfect spot.We ordered drinks (including the milkshake in the photo) which were very reasonably priced, but the menu options for food looked good too, and the offerings coming out to the other tables looked lovely. Staff were friendly and helpful.

which brought us to this lovely café set in an historic setting, elevated with commanding sea views. Currently outside service only during this extended period of government lockdown hysteria. Absolutely charming and engaging waiter who brought us delicious and hearty homemade soups. The sausage sandwiches passing by looked equally lush. Vegan options for the entitled. Good coffee. Whole team friendly and cheerful. Well managed.

Came up with the dog on a very breezy Easter Monday morning and after a long walk needed sustenance. The cafe was open for hot and cold food to carry out. Steady trade. It cost us just over a fiver each for four teas/coffees, three huge homemade sausage rolls and a large hunk of vegan chocolate cake. Served quickly and consumed by the low wall in a gale with our backs to the sea. Excellent.

Favourite place to go when walking the coast path or searching for dolphins off Berry head! Amazing coffee and homemade cakes- flapjacks are amazing! Also great for breakfast and lunch when fully open; varied menu and fresh produce. Always quick and friendly service. Moderate prices but 100% worth it. Loyalty card available, would always recommend!

Very warm welcome. Only stopped for hot drinks but the food looked great. Very COVID compliant. Worth a visit

Very popular place to go, friendly staff and clean. The food is good quality and tasty. Door stop sandwiches are very nice. Good options for the home made cakes.

Really friendly welcome, a lovely cream tea and massive doorstep bacon butty which we could kid ourselves that we had earned on the walk up from Brixham. Great cakes too, set in the remains of a Napoleonic fort and fab views from Berry ahead.

The views are so wonderful! The smiling staff are doing such a good job. Don't miss this little gem when walking on Berry Head.

A great walk from Brixham to berry head and having lunch at this place. Covid aware and perfectly done.The staff are very friendly and happy to help. I had the fish chowder full of flavour full of fish. Excellent .Great value , also the coffee is great and to top it off Hummingbird cake !!!!! Fantastic

Popped in and were fortunate to be offered a table straight away. Staff were very friendly and polite and were reminded about covid requirements. We had a light snack and drinks and all arrived quite quickly. Staff were attentive and welcoming. Would we recommend it and go again? Yes we would.

Walked out to Berry Head from our holiday rental in Brixham, about 45 minutes at a leisurely pace. After strolling to the Lighthouse we made our way back to The Guardhouse Cafe. Very well organised, with very efficient Covid controls in place. Coffee was excellent and can thoroughly recommend the Doorstop Sausage sandwich!All staff friendly and helpful.All round good place to get a drink and quality food!

Very hospitable cafe, v covid safe. Nice atmosphere. We had a lovely creamy seafood chowder though it had salmon and no seafood in it. The tea and local bottled beer were v good.

The food and drinks were very good and excellent value, although the staff were friendly they appeared to be busy doing other things instead of serving customers, once at our table we waited 15 minutes for service and when the waiter arrived she apologised saying she thought someone else had taken our order. During the meal I noticed the same thing happened to another group and the cafe wasn’t busy. If the service had been better it would have been 5 stars.

Great menu if you're after cake but limited on the hot meal front. Having said that, the food was good and the service friendly

Lovely cream tea, great cakes and delicious coffees. The service was excellent. I would highly recommend

Nice walk from Brixham along the coast. Great views. Friendly staff, nice food and drink. Sat outside as the weather was good.

Good place for a light lunch. The cheese scones were delicious. Outside and inside seating. Excellent service.

Gorgeous setting, super gluten free cake, excellent coffee, efficient and friendly service, dog-friendly ... and excellent COVID protocols in place, including in the loos.

Our lunch here was delicious and well worth the short wait for an inside table to become free, with our two golden retrievers allowed to come in with us. The staff are friendly and we felt very safe with all the covid measures in place. My seafood chowder was the best I've ever had. The different pieces of fish were so fresh and perfectly cooked in a creamy soup with fresh granary bread to mop it all up. My husband's fish goujons were delicious too (I was allowed a small piece to try). We were so impressed we just had to come back after our cliff top walk to have a wonderful pear and ginger cake with a very good latte at one of their many outside tables.

Great breakfast and fantastic service! Plus...you are not going to find better views. It’s a lovely place to spend your morning.

After the 5 mile walk a coffee soup and cake is a nice break mid walk. As with other places all COVID issues are addressed with a great system in place with all staff doing a great job. Loved the coffee with a good selection on the menu!

Had a lovely black decaffeinated coffee whilst sat outside in the sun. Covid rules were being adhered to strictly , which was very reassuring , a Wonderful location. The staff were so helpful and cheerful. We didn’t eat but we saw some lovely looking cakes.

We enjoyed our stop in the cafe. Nice respite from pouring rain on the day we visited. Nice tea and cake

Nice range of food, friendly staff, well managed for this covid era. We only had coffee and tea cakes but the other food coming out from the kitchen looked excellent.

We stopped here on our walk from St Mary's Bay to Brixham. The cafe is in a lovely situation on top of the clouds with far reaching and beautiful views. The coffee and cake were delicious - a welcome treat!

Visited the guardhouse for lunch with my fiancée while visiting nearby brixham and loved it ! What an amazing position and the food was fab , following Covid protocol to the letter , very organised and great selection of healthy food and drinks

Nice selection of food and cakes looked good. We had a cream tea and hot cheese scone and butter both very nice.

On a blustery day up on Berry Head - this place never fails to disappoint. Great selection of food/snacks and simply the BEST COFFEE AROUND!!!!! Plus - they have adopted really robust rules re COVID so it is also very safe :)

Visited here for breakfast after having read all of the great reviews.On the whole though I felt like I had eaten in a lot better places in Brixham on our trip.The views were great out to sea and my doorstop sandwich of sausage and bacon was good.My wife and daughter had a scone and a teacake. It would have been much better to have received butter for both rather than a spread, and it was highly doubtful that the scones were fresh that day.It was also quite pricey for £28 for the three of us when we didn't actually have that much.Not sure if I would recommend.

Really enjoyed our food and ice cream here after we’d wandered around berry head. We had fish goujons which I would definitely recommend, very yum! Was lovely to sit out in the garden area too!

Visited at the end of a great walk along the costal path. Coping with Covid-19 well. Just the type of food and drink one needs after a day in the sun and fresh air.

Despite living in the area all our lives, this was our first visit to Berry Head.Area generally is amazing with stunning coastal views.We had stopped for a coffee and cake on arrival and found the service friendly with a good cake selection. I need to eat Gluten Free so had carrot cake, but there were a couple of other options.Once we had looked around the site, we couldn't decide what to do for lunch. I had spotted a couple of gluten free options on the menu when ordering coffee. So rather than drive elsewhere, park up and then try to find somewhere that catered for me ..we decided to return.So glad we did!My wife chose a beetroot and halloumi salad. Which she said had a fantastic pesto sauce.I can't recall the full name of my beef dish, but it was served with Gluten Free bread, beetroot ketchup, salad and crisps. It was lush!Good service, with little waiting too.

In these difficult times for cafe's its wonderful to see such a well organised and extremely friendly place. Despite the obvious need to restrict flow into the cafe, waiting time was fine and the food superb. I can whole heartedly recommend the bacon sandwich; the bread is tasty and fresh, while the bacon filling never seems to end. My wife had a crab sandwich and echos my sentiments.Views from Berry Head are stunning, while the range of coastal and other walks are superb. All that said, I'd go back to The Guardhouse Cafe simply for the food.

Went up for breakfast today, and we were pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality of food. I had Huevos Rancheros which was so good, and my husband had the cooked breakfast. The service was good, and the staff friendly and polite. Service with a smile makes such a difference - (I add this in as we went somewhere else in Brixham, not far away, and found the staff very offhand, so I appreciated feeling that, as a paying customer, I was welcome!) The coffee was good too. Being early, there wasn’t really a wait, but to be honest, waiting can’t be helped in the current situation when places are busy, and I would happily wait for good service and good food! I will be going back here for sure.

Our friends and us were visiting the area and decided to stop and have a snack. Due to COVID they were only using the outside tables which allowed social distancing t be easily observed. You queued up on one side of the building with a simple one way system and exited the other side. They took your name and you exited to your table. Then when your food was ready they came out and called your name ad they delivered your food.We only had drinks and bowls of chips and it is a shame that COVID has forced a reduced menu. But that will improve sometime in the future. The service level was good an even included the owner (I think) coming out to apologise for the length of time processing everyone. It was a beautiful day which meant loads of people wanting drinks and food.

Thus cafe has good write ups so we might have just caught them in an off day as it was not nice at all. Frozen chips and chewy inedible fish goujons. £26 for 2 lunches which we didn’t particularly enjoy, and 2 soft drinks. Better off having a cuppa and a cake and passing on the lunch. Take a picnic instead.

Had the pancakes, the wife had an omelette on toast. Couldn’t fault either. 99% of the staff (ie the youngsters) were absolutely lovely. The view is superb. I’ve deducted a star because I got “told off” by the older woman working there. Granted, I went in through through the exit door, but only to enquire where I could leave a tip, and the reaction was as if I had walked in with a hose spraying Covid 19 everywhere. I understand the Covid 19 concern, but the rest of Brixham is certainly not concerned with self-isolation, at least if the harbour is anything to go by this week (late Aug 2020). Anyway, I recommend a visit on her day off.

Lovely cafe serving a range of delicious food. I had a simple summer salad which was gorgeous washed down with a glass of Prosecco! They have a good system set up for taking orders - ( you will need your mask to go in and place your order and potentially choose ice creams). You then go and sit down. All tables are outside - eating in is not an option. The service was amazingly quick considering how busy they were. Food was brought to the table. All waiters and waitresses were professional and friendly. After lunch we were lucky enough to see a large pod of dolphins swimming just of the headland. If you’re looking for something to do, I would recommend visiting Berry Head and stopping for refreshment at this great cafe!

My husband, my son and I headed to the cafe this lunchtime and storm Ellen was well and truly blowing. As usual, the service and food quality was exceptional and the staff made allowances for the weather - sheltering food from the wind and asking customers to place their used plates and cutlery at a specific place to avoid any unwanted littering on the nature reserve. The thought and planning that occurs daily for this cafe to run so successfully must be exhausting. It is a stunning place to eat - not just for the scenery but also the broad and varied menu. We really feel proud to call this our 'local' cafe because the customers and the reserve it is located on are thought of with sincere care.Keep up the good work.X

What a fantastic place - visited yesterday, and had the most delicious meal in the most stunning situation... we even saw dophins and porpoises off Berry Head, after our lunch. It was great, in spite of the juggling of people/masks/wind & rain/trying to distance, and lovely clean loos..... I think the staff were doing a great job, seeing as how busy it was. All the Covid rules and Eat Out/Help Out regulations are tricky to enforce, but everyone was trying really hard. I understand that they cannot put up umbrellas over the tables as it is a conservation site and you cannot bang things into the ground, which I suppose is understandable, but makes the Cafe a bit of a hostage to the rainstorms! I will be back, even when the Chancellor's 50% special offer is over.

Been here many, many times over the years and would always recommend it and give it 5 stars. But that was pre covid 19. Over the last several days we've breakfasted here 3 times but today was the final straw. We've noticed the breakfast was downsized, but today we were denied the 50% government covid 19 discount because we were not eating at the outdoor table in the monsoon rain with no parasol!! UNBELIEVABLE! We chose to eat our bacon sandwich and coffee on their step at the front of the building, under cover. But this isn't good enough, we have to sit at the table in the rain to get the discount. There is no seating inside due to covid 19. The doorstep sandwich is simply not value for money. At £6-50 for bacon and green leaves it is pure profiteering. Tourists might pay it but locals won't.See what happens in the winter months!!

The location is beautiful and there are lots of well spaces tables outside. The food from the summer salad to the crab sandwich and the lobster was beautiful. The service was excellent as well.

We walked up to Berry Head on the first day of our holiday and found this lovely cafe. The views are spectacular, the food really tasty, and service was excellent and well thought out in these strange times, with outside table service running very smoothly. Polite, friendly staff too. What a great place to enjoy a light lunch and a glass of wine! We will return.

Great cafe, stopped for a late breakfast whilst on a walk. The doorstep sandwiches are delicious and are huge, you could easily share between 2, leaving just enough room for the equally delicious cakes!

Updated from days of the visitors from local camp sites, this is wonderful piece of design with built in walks and dog friendly sit down and eat space. Excellent.

We took a walk down to the fort and had a marvellous breakfast at the Guardhouse , ten out of ten for quality, presentation, taste and everything else, service was very good too, cant fault it, we will be going back.

Very lovely cafe in a stunning spot at Berry Head. We visited for a cup of tea and some ice creams and then returned the next day for breakfast as we were staying in a camping site close by. Cafe set up well to accommodate Covid restrictions, screens in place, collection of orders from side door outside which was fine for us as we had fantastic weather but not so sure how this would work if it was raining. Toilet facilities were opening and fine to use. Quite pricey but if you can’t treat yourself when you’re on holiday when can you?! Doorstep sausage sandwich was massive!!

Our first visit this week will not be our last. The whole experience, the very friendly staff, the care and attention to staying safe, and of course, the food. We only had a snack, sausage rolls and a very good chocolate cake with coffee, but it was enough to know that we will return. Add to this the beautiful setting, what a delight!

The most amazing BLT I've ever eaten. The softest bread and crispy bacon. Also had a summer salad which was beautiful. Highly recommend.

Read the reviews for this and thought we had to give it a try. We were not disappointed! Lovely staff, excellent food, amazing views. The only problem you will have is deciding what to eat, it all sounds so good! Just make sure you are hungry, small appetites will need to ask for a takeaway box, it’s all too good to leave!

So glad we didn’t bother with a picnic on this visit to bury head. Lovely soup and terrific Moroccan flatbread. Excellent friendly service

What a lovely spot for breakfast! Some great ‘alternatives’ to the full cooked English, which all looked amazing. Fast friendly service and dog friendly. Definitely on our list for another visit.

I love this cafe. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the coffee is great. I often pop in when walking my dog Tilly. She loves it too and is always welcomed with a biscuit. Great location, stunning views and we often see dolphins at Berry Head.. The only downside is I can spend so much time there chatting with the staff and other local dog walkers that when I get home my morning is almost gone.

We took a walk around Berry Head Nature reserve and visited the fort on a particularly windy day. The Guardhouse cafe is situated within the fort compound and was a welcome stop during the walk. There is a great selection of drinks & cakes and looking at the wide & varied menu, meals were reasonably priced. There was a dogs welcome sign so the cafe was full but little wait to be served. Staff were very friendly and service was excellent. Highly recommended .

Visiting Brixham for a few days wouldn’t be complete without a breakfast at the Guardhouse. As on previous occasions the breakfast was lovely. I had the Guardhouse breakfast and my wife the poached eggs on toast with mushrooms & spinach. We watched many breakfasts being served while we were there and all looked the same high quality.

This lovely café can churn to anything from a bowl of soup to Brixham plaice with steamed spinach and crunchy capers.Everything seems to be of a very good quality and the cakes are superb.Would highly recommend yo take a stroll around the Berry Head Napoleonic Fort at Berry Head to work off some calories either before of after your indulgence.

What a fabulous place. We stopped for a coffee and had lunch great portions and cake to die for Very busy but brilliant day for a walk so it was going to be busy. Didn’t have to wait and great service. Lovely staff very friendly and great food

A real haven, particularly on a windy day at the end of December. Full but the efficient staff are very quick to clear and clean tables. Wonderful views if you’re lucky enough to get a window seat - we did! A wide and varied menu, the five of us all had something different and all thoroughly enjoyed what they had. Service is admirably quick, the staff must be worn out by the end of the day. One big bonus is that they welcome dogs - not sure they’d keep going without them. All of them were very well behaved so not a problem. Good value for money, satisfied all age ranges. Toilets OK.

I was visiting Berry Head with my daughter and grandson a few days before Christmas. Although the cafe was busy as it was lunchtime we were cheerfully welcomed and found a window table with a lovely cliff top view of the sea straight away. We were only there for a coffee and toasted teacake but the service was quick and cheerful. Both the coffee and teacake were very tasty and I particularly noticed a number of well behaved dogs as Berry Head is popular place for walking the dog. I will certainly make a point of revisiting this cafe on my next trip, probably for a breakfast or lunch.

After a New Year Walk we were looking forward to lunch at The Guardhouse. We ordered the gnocchi, which was tasty, but just such a ridiculously small portion ...maybe ok for a child, but certainly not worth the £9 we each paid. Also too expensive ..for what is after all a small, crowded cafe, with an unrelaxing ambience..we found it to be noisy, crowded, cluttered, and filled with muddy and smelly dogs.

We popped in and had breakfast here. It’s nearly on the headland so popular with walkers and dog friendly. I had a Christmas breakfast hash to eat. My wife had freshly made pancakes, crispy bacon and maple syrup. My breakfast hash consisted of chopped chorizo, carrot and Brussels sprouts, fried with three eggs added. It was really tasty and something I may experiment with when cooking at home. We both had latte. Service was ok the friendly waitress obviously knew lots of regulars as she spent a lot of time chatting to people. Would recommend a visit if you are in the area as you can walk off a good breakfast around the nature reserve afterwards.

15：００頃ランチで利用しました。アジアン風（タイ風）ソースのフィッシュケーキと野菜の付け合わせ、紅茶を注文。野菜もしっかりとれて、ヘルシーかつ美味でお値段もお手頃です。食事メニューは数種類ありどれも魅力的で夕方まで注文可能。スコーンやケーキにも心惹かれましたがお腹いっぱいで断念。

Beautiful views whilst eating/drinking. Food is good, we had a breakfast and was a good size portion with the biggest slice of toast I had ever seen!

Delicious lunch in wonderful surroundings-we sat outside on a sunny October day. Excellent,friendly efficient service;tasty food from interesting,varied menu-Superb.

Even though the weather was particularly atrocious with heavy rain and high winds we made our way up to the café for lunch. We were not disappointed the views were amazing and the service in the café was very good. The food was excellent and I can recommend the walk even in bad weather.

The rave reviews drew me and my family to this cafe on a recent morning visit to Paignton: 'great food, great location, great staff' and, yes, someone mentioned it was 'a favourite with dog walkers'. Well, certainly a great location, staff seemed young and keen and the menu definitely appeared far more sophisticated and intriguing than your average greasy spoon. All indications pointed to a breakfast that would reward a meandering 20 minute drive through morning traffic, narrow streets and lanes, a hike from the car park and a £2 parking fee awaiting my return an hour later. However, after placing my order for traditional breakfasts and taking my seat, I soon found the cafe filled with a fraternity of local owners and their even more excited dogs (6, 8, 10? No exaggeration), who had free reign to run around tables, bark, sniff and do what dogs should do, dare I suggest, outside in parks. It felt like eating breakfast in the vet's waiting room. I had to stop a dog entering the toilet with me. And the breakfast? Bog standard greasy fare.

Visited today with my family. Although busy, we received quick service, the staff were very Friendly and the food was delicious! 100% recommended

Fabulous position with sea views. Spacious light and airy cafe with a very good breakfast menu and specials!

The previous reviews were so right! The outlook is amazing, the café is light bright and airy. The staff very friendly and professional, and the food looked excellent. I had a coffee and bacon roll- the roll was full of bacon, I couldn't eat anything else!

We stopped off here whilst out for a stroll around Berry Head. This is a lovely cafe with beautiful views. Also a great range of drinks, teas, soft drinks, some beer & wine options too as well as a great range of food - we had some lovely cakes. Very dog friendly, lots of dog walkers having a pit stop.

Friendly service, warm interior, dog friendly and the most amazing coffee latte. The jam on offer for the cream tea was divine!. They offer an interesting menu and we would definitely return.

First of all a big 'TY' to the reviewers who told me about it. Imagine arriving on a cold, windswept October day and walking up from the car park dreading that the café would not be open. And. at first sight. it wasn't ! But it was ! and it was filled with walkers and dogs and when you saw the menu it was no wonder. There is a really good choice and every day they have specials on offer. You get two Napoleonic forts, a lighthouse and superb views free !

What a lovely lunch after a nice walk. We can highly recommend the fish chowder.

Berry Head is a fine place for a walk and the Guardhouse adds to the pleasure. Good food, freshly prepared and served by friendly staff. Sometimes I just stop for coffee then have trouble resisting the excellent cakes and pastries. Also a good choice of food for lunch or breakfast. Especially worthwhile at an outside table when the weather is good, don't miss out if you are in the area.
