The Surf Shack - Coffee & Surf in Coleraine

Perfect spot for the beach. Decent selection of drinks and food. Quirky setting with a variety of seats, and the option to take away.

Had a surf lesson here. Provided an excellent instruction and tailored training for me to get catching the waves. I was very much a beginner but now I feel I've discovered a brand new sport and can't wait to try it again, was really good fun! Would recommended to anyone for a fun day out. Beach is beautiful also

We stopped here when walking the dog on Castlerock Beach. We had noticed on line it was dog friendly and were keen to try. Really good coffee and lovely tray bakes. Cinnamon swirls and Carmelita incredible. But my sister is a connoisseur of a fifteen and has had one in every cafe we have been in on our 5 nights at the North Antrim Coast, she said the one here was by far the best. Lovely casual seating area and super friendly staff. Gorgeous view of coast and beach. Highly recommended.

This is not fine dining - more rustic in style. But it is such a great spot with covered areas to enjoy great food, fresh air, and a view of the ocean. The staff are most friendly, helpful and efficient. It adds such pleasure as an oasis for walkers and beach families alike.

Just a quick stop in for hot chocolate but we were very impressed with the friendly service, lovely location and the kids have claimed it was the best hot chocolate they have ever had! Hopefully will be back to have lunch someday

Lovely coffee shop which is also dog friendly. The banana & peanut butter brownie is delicious. Lovely, helpful staff.

Great spot to enjoy a nice coffee or bite to eat after a walk along Castlerock beach just across the road. Dog friendly as well which is great. Love the photo board with Polaroids of all the dogs that have visited over the year. There’s a nice shop setup now in the back to with a variety of T-shirts, prints and photography.

The coolest outdoor place ever for a coffee - and in one of the most beautiful costal settings. Bliss!

Such a pretty location to sit with a glass of wine (Bring your own) and have a cheese board (you buy when there) and watch the sun go down. Music is softly playing in the background and the fairy lights are everywhere. You would think you are in Cornwall. Castlerock has needed this for a long time- well done.

Amazing cafe with delicious coffee and lunch food with a gorgeous sea view. This place has a lovely ambiance with seaside relaxed decor and some fun merchandise to purchase. In the evenings they do cheese and wine. We loved this place and will definitely be back.

This cafe is on one of our cycle routes. It’s everything a surf shack cafe should be: at the beach, great views, lots of open air seating(some covered for inclement weather, friendly staff, good choice of light bites and snacks and, critically, excellent coffee.

Small range of fare but coffee is good and the location very handy to beach. Plenty of outdoor seating. Marked food down for lack of choice but tasted fine.

We met with friends here today - lovely seating outside and in a sheltered area. Service was fast and everything was of very good quality and reasonably priced. We will certainly return.

Amazing place for a coffee with a view but seems to be mostly closed! No opening time notices for prospective customers.

Excellent haven for a quick coffee when visiting Benone Strand. Coffee is excellent and staff engaging, friendly and helpful. Limited space only an issue if raining!

We visited today for lunch (sandwiches and coffees). Both were very good and even if it is raining, there is plenty of covered seating (a heater would make it even better but I know for environmental reasons, some places do not like using these). There...

Ordered three take away coffees at this place today. Stood for a good 20/25 mins as they were too busy serving the customers seated. Plenty members of staff there ! Will definitely not be back !!!

Visited Castlerock for the first time one evening and was delighted to find this gem of a place! Went for coffee but saw they do a sharing platter with cheese, crackers, olives, tapenade etc so had to try it! Everything was delicious. Great atmosphere and...

We were recommended this place by family and it was a great shout. Staff are great and the location is brilliant. We had a coffee and a smoothie. Give it a go when in Castlerock.

The Surf Shack has brought Castlerock alive! Everything about this dog friendly place is excellent.. The young staff are so lovely..the coffees and smoothies excellent, the sandwiches, scones and sweet treats all delicious. They now have started serving a cheese platter on weekend evenings and...

My husband & I visited a couple of days ago & we were really disappointed. We had been on several previous occasions & it was passable. Our last visit demonstrated that it is run by a group of teenage boys who obviously cannot cope with...

1st visit to a coffee shop after shielding for 3 months and was disappointed to see a lack of sanitising and tables and not being cleaned nor sanitised. Coffee was mediocre and staff not very chatty.

Great little coffee shop! I’d definitely suggest Cappuccino but their other offerings look great too and reasonably priced. Tucked away with a wonderful view!

Lovely new cafe opposite beach entrance. Outdoor seating area. We tried the hot chocolate and one of the smoothies. Very good staff and happy to recommend.

A truly hidden gem! Extreme friendly and helpful staff. Dog friendly cafe located just by the sea with a breath taken uninterrupted panoramic ocean view. Highly recommended!

if you are in CastleRock and you bet for a coffe after a long walk on the beach...this new coffe shop is the place where to be. Hits all the spots...lovely modern surf friendly atmosphere, young and keen owners, stunning views and good coffe!

Short season but terrific value healthy snacks great situation and helpful staff encourage you to hire surf board and suits and have a go fantastic surf will be back

We had a 5 day trip to Castlerock and were in the Surf Shack three times. We had lovely snacks & coffee, we rented a SUP and by total chance we went to one of their dinner events which was fantastic (£15 per person and...

Third time here at this newly opened cafe shop with a fabulous view of Castlerock Beach to check out the surf conditions. Good value coffee, tea and hot chocolate along with buns and other treats at very reasonable prices are on offer. They also organise...
