The Pier Bistro in Aberdeen City

Bien vale la pena el dinero, el servicio impecable, no podía faltar, el gerente Ross y el personal todo muy acogedor y recomendará a los amigos

This was our first visit here and hopefully our experience was just more bad luck than anything else. Was bright and spacious inside and only moderately busy with plenty of tables left inside and out. The menu choice looked great with range of hot and cold food and drinks. We went for two cokes, two coffees and two breakfast rolls. Even chanced it with having a lemon muffin between us. Drinks came out quickly and were nice. Muffin arrived shortly after then a bit too quickly our breakfast rolls arrived. I took a bite and sadly the egg had a texture almost like it had been fried in water and sausages were barely warm and worse, the black pudding was barely cooked with the centre cold and raw. My partners roll was the same with everything far too underdone and barely warm. We decided we couldn’t eat them so moved to our drinks and muffin. Drinks were all fine but the muffin was comparable to a doorstop. Not sure if it had been out for a a few days or if they freeze them, and it wasn’t quite defrosted but it was really dense and just crumbled when we went to try a piece. Again, totally inedible. The waiter and then manager/owner came over to apologise and took the food items off our bill. He offered to remove everything from the bill but we insisted on paying for the drinks as they were absolutely fine. Two coffees and two cokes came to £14.60. As good as the service and atmosphere was there are definitely quality control issues here or maybe we were just unlucky on the day.

Came in earlier today for lunch with my friend and started off with okay service and nice iced coffee. However, when the food came i was really disappointed, my friend's food was okay but i had ordered the ham, cheese and caramelised onion ciabatta and when it came it had a couple cut up bits of ham in tiny pieces and a few sprinkles of cheese and an absolute heap of what was meant to be caramelised onion but was very vinegary and didn't taste correct and completely overpowered it, i was unable to eat most of it even after scraping out most of the onion. During our meal at not one point did any staff member check back on us even though there was only four tables in, and even after the staff members walked past our table and saw my plate no one stopped to ask if anything was okay. We went up to pay and was not asked how our meal was and was just asked to pay so i felt uncomfortable saying anything about it and left having payed £21 for something i didn't eat. I then tried to phone up to let them know just for future customers coming in to check back on them and was answered by a very rude and hostile 'manager', at no point was i apologised to but i was told instead it was my fault for not speaking up, and was then told "i've worked in hospitality for 10 years" by the MANAGER which i think was very rude, it was a very hostile conversation with again not one apology for our experience. I'm never normally one to complain and i just suck up what i've been given but after this experience i definitely won't be back.

It’s okay at best. Nicely decorated, however the price isn’t worth the quality of the food (charging £3.50 for a can of flat soda). Servers are very young and inexperienced, pushing past tables to get from one area to other.

Nice place to seat for a snack and coffee.

Wpuld definitely recommend this place if your going for lunch, very quiet in there when i went, was really cheap and staff were friendly

Así que vi este lugar en FBI tan viajado desde Derby. Nos encantó el aspecto del sándwich de carne, pero nos decepcionó ya que no se parecía en nada.

Fue horrible, muy poco relleno en papa horneada, pedí una porción de frijoles para agregar a mi relleno debido a la kack de ellos. También ensalada es un lado de hojas con un aderezo! ¡Decepcionado como lo fue £ 12 por esto!

So enjoyed my visit this evening for the Burns night special menu. All the food was absolutely delicious. The much anticipated deep fried rowie was amazing !! Haggis stack with needs & tatties & peppercorn sauce was fabulous & should definitely be on the menu all the time. Accompanying cocktails & excellent service made it a most lovely evening. Immaculate toilets also a bonus. Would highly recommend & will certainly be going there again.

Ignored by staff from the moment we walked in. After around 5 minutes standing patiently next to the 'reception' desk, when we pointed out to a woman staff member settling bills for people who presented themselves at the desk that we were still waiting to bne seated/served she ignored us and wouldn’t even establish eye contact. Will never return. Went to the Inversneckie next door and were welcomed heartily the moment we walked in

Came in just myself and enjoyed my time. The place was clean and the staff were always making sure to clear/reset tables quickly. Staff were friendly and joked with the guests. I had a hot chocolate and a traybake and it’s clear they are made freshly. I would recommend this place to anyone who was visiting both Aberdeen and the beachfront

Such a lovely cafe, we had the steak sandwiches which were incredible!

Ignorado por el personal desde el momento en que entramos. Edad aún 5 minutos, cuando señalamos a una mujer que nos estaba esperando y nos ignoró y ni siquiera estableció contacto visual. Nunca volverá. Fuimos al Inversneckie de al lado y nos dieron una cálida bienvenida en el momento en que entramos.

Used to be a massive fan of this place. Recommend it to everyone especially for it gluten free but this last two times I’ve been the service has been shocking. Cold food and attitude when we asked for it to be heated. Given the benefit of the doubt and went back as its gluten free options are nice for a brunch. We then Waited 30 minutes with two tables who came in after us getting service before us. Seeing people around us getting the wrong order. Really disappointed

Very good breakfast selection and attentive staff.

Julia was amazing. Fantastic food, steak sandwich full to the brim.

Avarage food, poor service, long (50min) waiting to be served.

Consistently good food and coffee. And by god the scrambled eggs are good!

Service was very good, everyone spoke with very good manners and food was excellent 👌

Precioso café en primera línea de mar con asientos al aire libre. Tuve un desayuno sin gluten y leche con leche de soja. Personal bien informado y servicial. Buena opción para sin gluten. Gran tamaño de porción y precio razonable. Lo recomendaría, gracias

Came in for a fancy piece and some coffee and it was absolutely delicious. Lovely warm welcome from the 2 ladies that were on and was nice to get into a cosy cafe with it being a tad chilly outside. Highly recommended

Promedio, justo. Tuvimos desayuno - el desayuno completo cocinado y huevos escalfados en tostadas GF con tocino. Las salchichas estaban demasiado cocidas, e insípidas. El tocino en ambos platos estaba “flappy” - cocinado por un solo lado y parecía precocinado. Los huevos escalfados estaban ligeramente exagerados y tenían sabor a vinagre. Las tostadas GF se tostaron por un solo lado. En el lado positivo, el personal era amable y acogedor y el café era bueno. Precioso para lo que teníamos y pocas opciones de GF. Así que no volveremos.

Familia de seis para el almuerzo en un hermoso día en Aberdeen. Los padres pidieron la sopa que parecía agua de vajilla y era tan delgada. No lo probé pero debería haber sido camote y coco. No tenía sabor y nunca había visto un coco, mucho menos tener un poco en la sopa 3 de nosotros pedimos el cerdo tirado y queso ciabatta pero mis nietas estaba tan gorda que no podía intentar comerlo. Todos los ciabattas tenían un sabor a químicos como si la tabla de cortar hubiera sido rociada y no limpiada. Tenga en cuenta que cuando dicen que viene con una ensalada - es solo lechuga asfixiada en un aderezo En general, un almuerzo caro que estaba en la mayoría de los platos.

Decidió comer en este café para picar. Decepcionados, desearíamos haber seguido adelante. Mesas sillas y sillas cubre sucio que estaba sentado entre la caca de pájaro. De los pájaros que no nos importan los pájaros pero al menos limpian asientos abajo. Fue un día encantador, grandes vistas del mar. La comida era pobre mi tocino estaba lleno de grasa y la comida del marido mal cocinada era sosa. Vergüenza como no era un aperitivo barato.

Excellent coffee and very fine bacon rolls!!!

Decidió ir a la playa hoy para el desayuno, ya que era una mañana encantadora. Qué decepción. La cafetería era agradable y el personal era encantador. La comida estaba precocinada e ingredientes de mala calidad. No podía comer el pudín negro, el hachís marrón, el Haggis o la salchicha. Al precio de £ 13. 95 para un escocés completo me siento estafado y decepcionado.

We were just there for a drink. Good service and great sea views

The pier restaurant excellent service excellent food I can't say anything negative about this restaurant it's all good

We ordered pancakes, and one plate was enough for two people. It was tasty as well. The service was excellent

All three of us had the breakfast, took almost 30 minutes to arrive and it wasn’t even hot. Eggs were under-cooked, food was okay. Had better at hotels buffets and the only draw is sitting outside in a sunny day. Staff a bit standoffish but they were busy however a smile and letting customers waiting know that they’ll be back when they are free would be good. There was two other staff standing talking and looking at us with dirty looks.

Milkshakes are tasty, but not so good as in Kava Street Coffee a little bit down on the beach 😉

Popped in for a coffee and was tempted by a bite of lunch couldnt resist the many choices there were on offer!!! Loved the Philly cheese steak, food was fresh and great quality. All staff so smiley and friendly, will be coming back often!!

A regular haunt for me and my friends. Food is consistently good & service is friendly, and it's good value for money.

Great food & service. Really enjoyable!

Always a go to for food, great selection and all quality.

Love this place,lovpey food,lovely service and tge coffee is always fantastic and HOT!

Very nice, friendly and superb fresh food

Lovely food, great service. Pulled pork bun highly recommended

Great food, service and a nice vibe.

Nice service, nice view and nice food quality.

Lovely breakfast with great service

Food was lovely staff was inviting great place

Great for an early coffee after a walk along the beach

Sorry never had food that day just a latte which was delish ...

Crowded and EXPENSIVE (for what you're getting). At least the quality seems decent though. Service... so so. Maybe they were having a stressed day.

Fast service and food comes out piping hot but when I ordered the chicken bacon and caesar toastie i’d expect to have the bacon element

In Aberdeen for a break from Edinburgh. Searched for a venue with healthy options that was dog friendly and The Pier seemed perfect. However, when we arrived we were told no dogs indoors only outside. If you have ever sat on the beach front in April you will realise that's not an option and therefore the Pier is not dog friendly. Very disappointing.

Arrived for a cuppa and a bap with my bro. The ladies were quick to show us a table and take our order. My brother had a latte - the standard size. It was tiny so I'd recommend you ordered a large. The tea was standard. I ordered a sausage in a roll, my brother a sausage and an egg. Alas, it wasn't hot and lacked flavour. The noise was deafening. Between the customers chat and the music on a loop, it was very intrusive. A relief when we went outside into the quiet. Goodness knows how loud it will be in the summer.

Up visiting family in the Aberdeen area and the suggestion was to come to The Pier for Brunch/Lunch. I chose the ultimate breakfast which I thought was over priced at around £17!! It came out luke warm at best and has given me a horrid aftertaste since eating it. The bacon was excessively fatty and a tad underdone for my liking. (I didn't specify this at the time so I can forget the doneness to my fault). The sausages pretty much gross. Not sure where they are from but just tasted awful. I felt the quality of ingredients to be sub par. My mother had Scampi and Fries and said everything tasted over salted and that the scampi had a weird after taste. Perhaps the oil it's cooked in? It didn't taste clean anyway. Other dishes had wilted salad which some of it looked pretty depressing. Much like the beach front area these days. The men's bathroom had no soap in the dispenser (I forgot to mention this to the staff as was trying to locate hand sanitiser from family members). Staff are young but lovely. Really nice and friendly. Just ashame the food let it down. Probably the worst breakfast in Aberdeen. I hope they can change it as if like the staff to succeed.

Delicious vegan baked potato and falafel, we had the window seat looking out over the sea, will definitely eat there again.

£10 for a tiny cup of cold canned lentil soup and a sanwich with the cheapest brown bread that was falling apart and some slices of supermarket chicken and drizzle of grated cheese without any salad

Friendly staff, large menu, we had 3 pancakes, fruit with maple syrup, were lovely, but we thought £12.00 was a bit expensive!! Easy to park on the esplanade on a Wednesday afternoon in March.

In Monday 26th Feb first time. Family of four adults. First impressions walking in the door, nice. Then, Ar**y young waitress (twice), didn't like that. No coleslaw, just nope, we dont do that. Ciabatta plate average at best as judged by two of the four who ordered it. Two cooked breakfasts were OK, nothing special. Come to think of it, the tattie scone was missing off both plates! Sadly the black pudding was like a hockey puck in taste and texture. Lieing under a hot light on standby I think. That experience cost us £45. Didn't leave a tip, felt bad as the Eastern European waitress was absolutely lovely. Won't be back. Edit after owner reply- The missing tattie scones were not thought of until writing the review. The average ciabatta sandwiches and absent coleslaw came to light when I asked my wife & daughter what they thought as we later walked the front. Same for the unengaged waitress who'd rather have been somewhere else. All 4 noticed the 'tude'. The single coffee off the bill, while appreciated doesn't make up for the flaws. It's not my job to brace you fully on your business when i am out with my family. That's your job to monitor performance and act on it to ensure your customers want to return. You really should as it pulled the experience down. Reading other reviews there is a theme, subpar food & service. Not exactly getting it done in a cafe business is it?

A recurring favourite of mine for the past few years. Service can sometimes be slow but I can usually overlook this due to it normally being fairly busy, and that the food is just so good! However, was very disappointed when I went in over the weekend to see that the loaded fries have been removed from the menu. These were the star of the show (and the main reason I frequented so often)! There are many other options on the menu which are delicious, but PLEASE bring back the Hog Fries!!!

The 5 stars purely for the service staff. They provided us with a wonderful experience in terms of feeling welcome and well looked after. Unfortunately, the food was little short of abysmal. The bacon on my full breakfast was charred on oneside and close to raw on the underside, my egg was only partially cooked and I didn't eat it. The black pudding was dry but also somehow so oily and the toast was closer to stale bread, the only redeeming factor of my breakfast being the beans, then again how wrong can you go heating up a tin of beans? The highlight of my visit was without a doubt the coffee and brilliant service. One thing worth mentioning- the incessant ringing of the service bell from the kitchen side which we could hear clear as day as we were sat near the kitchen door. Having worked in hospitality myself for many years both as a server and as a chef, I know full well the meaning of a bell ringing but the qay it was clearly abused by the kitchen staff was a far cry from acceptable, the poor service staff, I couldn't cope with that! But they did it all with a smile on their face so kudos to them! Will not be back for food but I'd be happy to return for a coffee and one of those delicious cakes I missed out on this time!

A lovely wee place with friendly staff and good food. I recommend the scampi.

Husband and I fancied a wee treat for breakfast one weekend and saw this place when searching nearby. Staff were friendly but unfortunately the food was subpar; I ordered the fruit stack pancakes which were £10, and I could've made them for £2. Clearly shop-bought pancakes were used, and the smallest amount of fruit I'd ever seen - no exaggeration when I say I had 3 blueberries, one strawberry quartered, 2 pineapple chunks and a handful of melon pieces. I used the butter provided along with maple syrup but nothing could take away the dryness of the pancakes. I also ordered the strawberry smoothie, which was okay, but not worth £6. The music was also incredibly loud for first thing in the morning, and I'm one for a bit of ambiance and music to take away from the quiet in the morning but a dance playlist playing full blast was a bit of an odd choice for 9am on a Sunday haha.

Been here a few times but I must say the service has gone downhill massively. Had to wait 5 minutes to be seated, only one waiter for over 20 tables. The soup of the day on the board was not what was given. I had ordered leak and potato soup but got sweet potato and coconut soup instead without being told. This is a serious problem for anyone with food intolerance or allergies. It seemed like the waiter was not informed of this change in soup either. The waiter was very apologetic, however this was very disappointing

A perfect beach walk ending huge Baked Tatties, huge fillings.

The food is delicious. The staff are very friendly and attentive. Lovely place to go for a bite to eat and a coffee!

Was visiting Aberdeen for the day and stopped by this place to have lunch . The food was amazing . Staff were very friendly and efficient I highly recommend and will definitely be back

Right on the promenade. Locally owned which is always a bonus over a chain. Their food offering includes for example loaded fries, baked potatoes, or veggie breakfast. A couple of vegan options, vegetarian ones are more common. A mixture of cakes available daily.

Decent enough food, but expensive.

What a lovely place and amazing food!! Loved their pancake stack!!

Wonderful service lovely service Happy to help look forward to seeing them soon thank you

I am sad to be writing this as The Pier used to be one of my favourite places to visit. I went with a friend to grab some lunch. It was 20 mins before they stopped serving lunch. We sat down with some menus and after about 10mins we ordered our food and some drinks. We were sat for another 20 minutes before the waiter came over to tell us that they had stopped serving food and therefore could not have our food. I understand that this is not the waiters fault and I am in no way blaming them but we received no apology. I really used to love The Pier but over this past year I have found the service to be slow and the BBQ pulled pork (used to be my favourite) to be dry and not come with BBQ sauce (even though it says it comes with BBQ sauce on the menu), they then charge you when you ask for BBQ. This experience from the other day is the straw that broke the camels back for me unfortunately and I won’t be back :’(

Couldn't rate this place highly enough. I've been in a few times and yet to have a less than fantastic experience. The team are so friendly and welcoming, and even in the busiest times that doesn't waver. The new manager is so on the ball and has obviously perfected her art and enjoys her job. Keep doing what your doing Team Pier, you're doing brilliantly!

Good take away coffee but service is a little slow

Regular visitors to the Pier Nice little cafe on the beach front. Breakfast was huge with plenty of options. I tried a cafe special late and was really nice. Interior is ship esc, with a rowing boat on the wall. Staff helpful/friendly and nothing is ever too much trouble.

Good food with lot's of allergy advice and alternatives

Pop in here sometimes and usually it's okay but this morning was awful...asked for an egg roll and when it arrived it looked odd ...like a pancake in a bun...when I asked the waitress if it was freshly cooked she said it was cooked on a grill then heated under another to harden the yoke.!!..I said it didn't look like a freshly cooked egg but she assured me it was and countered my 'reality' that it looked perfectly normal. Her whole attitude was awful and though I ate it as was hungry I later regretted it as suffered from a sore stomach and nausea for the rest of the day. Coffee was awful too. What's happening to this place ...it used to be good. I won't be back in a hurry

Extremely overpriced, paid over £10 for the ‘crispy bacon and maple syrup pancake stack’ to receive store bought pancakes and fatty uncooked bacon!! No where near crispy!! I could have made my own at home with actual crispy bacon for less than £5. Will not be returning in a hurry and definitely won’t recommend 😞

I ordered food for wife and I. Got food got receipt. Started eating and looked at receipt. Receipt was bogus. Did not have all our items on it. I gave the cashier a 50 pound note and got 10 pound note back. Food totaled 24 pounds. I was shorted about 14 pounds. Talked to cashier and he gave us an additional 14 pounds. He was nice about it but obviously cheated us intentionally. Are all Scot’s like this?

Was closing too early for us to have tea although other diners next door were still open.

We went here for a family lunch and had the soup (which was delicious) and ciabattas. There was a varied and interesting selection of sandwiches, baked potatoes, ciabattas. I chose falafel with roasted vegetables and a chilli jam sauce which was first class. I ordered a latte coffee which was very bitter even after 3 sugars. When I mentioned it it was replaced promptly and apologies were made. At just under £40 for the 3 of us I’d say it’s in keeping with current prices in Aberdeen and Inverurie.

Me and Mike hit it right. Outside seating sun shining and the bacon rolls were superb! A great finish to our mornings Parkrun

We sat outside. Great food only marred by anxiety inducing birds who monitored our every move at the table from on high. Our fears were realised when a huge seagull saw an opening and in a split second landed with a flapping thump on our table which scared the life out of us all. Thankfully we had just finished eating but that was pure providence. The disappointed seagull then moved to his next victim. To be fair, it was a non discriminatory bird as it terrorised other diners across the seafront, not just patrons of the Pier.

Went for brunch at 11.15 am. Despite not being busy and having plenty of staff on duty in the restaurant, it was 15 minutes before our order was taken. Latte arrived promptly ( but luke warm ) and 45 minutes before brunch arrived. Second lattes were hotter but again finished before brunch arrived. We think there was a definite mix up with our order as it only appeared once we complained - twice. Similarly, we had to ask for a clean knife twice. When brunch finally arrive - eggs on toast with crispy bacon- the poached eggs were hard, the scrambled eggs were barely warm and the bacon wasn’t crispy! Staff were disinterested and unapologetic. We will not be back.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Good selection of food. Has both indoor and outside tables.

Food was fine and good choice available. Although the staff were clearly inexperienced, all were pleasant and helpful. My major drawback was being charged £9 for 3 cans of Diet Coke, and £1.20 for a single hash brown. That is an extortionate mark up, and will not encourage us to visit again. Which is a shame as otherwise was good!

Popped in for a quick drink on the promenade. The Burnside Brewery Wulver lager is awesome. Service was a bit slow but plenty of folk having meals so understandable. Good vibe all round. Didn't eat but food looked decent to be fair.

Quick pitstop to fuel up amidst my wee boys birthday day out; my wife has Celiac disease and The Pier has decent GF options. Front of house staff could not have been friendlier and more welcoming if they tried, despite the place being relatively busy with a lot of coming and going. Seated but no drinks order taken (understandable, it's quite hectic). When drinks do finally arrive, the cokes are completely flat but server swiftly swapped them for cans from front counter. Things go awry from here. My hotdog arrived, so over-cooked it was like chewy leather, sitting in the driest bun imaginable, which didn't help matters. A hotdog isn't difficult to cook, hard to excuse even if the kitchen is busy. This however pales in comparison to my sons 'ham sandwich and crisps'. A plate arrives with a disassembled ham sandwich, flopped upon a handful of stale tortilla chips. What kind of barbarian doesn't butter a ham sandwich? and on what planet is a tortilla chip a crisp? nae in Scotland min. I asked that they at least butter the sandwich, but it came back from the kitchen as is, server told me the kitchen staff were "being fussy" and gave me a few pats of butter to do this myself. Needless to say my son never touched a crumb after this fuss. If you can't show food a little love before it gets rolled out of your kitchen, you shouldn't work in a kitchen. To summarise: Very disappointing meal, lovely front of house staff.

Bang average visit with below average service from disinterested staff.

Nice place, friendly efficient staff and good food.

Not very good! Tables were dirty and staff not very attentive. It took a long time to have our order taken, even for drinks. We visited on Sunday 25th June, on a hot sunny day, so it was very busy outside. Despite inside being empty, we were sat at a table right next to the staff service door and it wasn't very nice with staff passing by all the time. We ordered a toasted ciabatta with salad and chips, however they both arrived in a right state with a bunch of brown old wilted salad leaves on the side and some crushed up tortilla chip crumbs. I showed this to the waiter and they took the plates back to the kitchen and brought it back with fresh salad, chopped tomatoes, cucumber, onion and a salad dressing this time. They also replaced the tortilla chips with ones which weren't just crumbs. A pitty it didn't come like this in the first place. Others at our table ordered baked potatoes and they arrived with a very small bunch of plain salad leaves on the side. We will probably not come back. Upon leaving, the staff member (young lady) at the counter asked us if we enjoyed our visit, so we were honest with her and shared our disappointment. She kindly offered a 10% discount on the bill.

We had a wonderful lunch great atmosphere excellent service

Fantastic place. Would recommend to anyone. Staff are brilliant also

Nice food and friendly staff. Service was excellent and well priced.

Fantastic little cafe, great for lunch, with a lovely beach vibe right on the seafront

Love it. Atmosphere was amazing

A small, intimate, cafe which I regularly go to for breakfast. I generally have the full Scottish breakfast which comprises of tasty, fresh, produce. There are lots of other options including vegetarian & vegan dishes. Good, attentive service and reasonably priced.

Not too many options, don't try chicken, meat is rubbery and big chunks

We love brunch at the Pier! A lot of options and a very friendly environment! Food is really good and there is also a big variety of drinks and smoothies. The location by the beach is ideal for a walk before or after food! Love the option that you can have your dog with you at the outdoor tables.

Tasteless, overpriced and stale. We called in for sunday brunch, ignoring the 50-minute wait for coffees and food to follow soon after it certainly was not worth the wait. Two dry, toasted, stale softies (ironic name) , over cooked brittle bacon was what was presented. Even brown sauce could raise the moisture. Pulled pork loaded fries, were tastless, lacked in "load" and seasoning. Needless to say the food was abandoned. 2 coffees, 2 fizzy drinks from the gun, 2 bacon rolls, and a loaded fries for the princely sum of £36. Save your money and try the streetfood vans further along the prom instead!

Personally one of the best place to eat, both at the beach and in Aberdeen as a whole. The interior is well decorated but, obviously, the food is also delicious! We usually go there in the morning for brunch; their savoury and crispy sausages and soft but well toasted roll, always makes a great combination for a morning roll full of flavour and texture. Their menu is also pretty extensive with a selections of Scottish breakfast, panini's, and salads so I would definitely recommend a visit if you're at the beach or nearby!

Service is typical of students who don't really want to be there. For what you pay for the breakfast, it is shockingly poor value. Our order had to be requested after 20 mins of waiting. Understaffed and a bit grubby. Been here a few times and always left hoping for better. VERY popular for young families. Perhaps this explains why it is typically busy on a Sunday. Personally will be trying somewhere else from now on.

I have visited this cafe a few times over the past few months and thought a review was well overdue! Every time I have been I have felt well looked after, despite never seeing the cafe less than 3/4 full, and left full and satisfied! The food has been great every time, especially their black pudding!! The staff are lovely and very clearly well worked as they're always on the move! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quick bite by the beach.

Came for Burns night tapas which were amazing! Food and service were spectacular couldn’t fault it!

Had issues last time I visited the pier glad to see the standard has improved

Visited the cafe on a Saturday afternoon. Left to wait a good 5 minutes before a member of staff acknowledged us. Only to be told they were not taking any more customers. This despite the fact there were vacant tables. Strange when the hospitality industry is going through a challenging time at the moment. Won’t return.
