Rather disappointed to find you can only sit outside with your dog, especially in October. Luckily the fish and chip shop was open up the road and we got a takeout.

Paella night on a Thursday is definitely an experience. We arrived early and was seated almost immediately. And the Paella.....go and try it for yourself....best I have had since Fuerteventura last year. Good food at a fair price. Staff are lovely too. Update: Back after 5 years for our 4th Anniversary , still fantastic food ,pictures speak for themselves. Deliciousness in the making. Staff are as lovely as they have always been. Wont leave it 5 years before returning. 😜💞. Update : Thursday night is Paella night. Lovely food in a relaxed atmosphere. Perfect.😊

Fantastic meal at the Waterside. Managed to get in at the last minute due to a cancellation. We were really impressed with the quality of food and so reasonably priced. Steve had Steak Diane, the steak was one of the best he had, he said it was really tasty and tender and that you could taste the quality and cooked to perfection. The Diane sauce was stunning! It was served with lovely crispy potatoes and vegetables, all cooked beautifully. I had sea bass, and again, it was beautifully cooked with the skin crisped and presented on top of the food, served with sliced new potatoes, green beans, and vine tomatoes.Both meals were generous portions. We had a bottle of the house white wine, which went well with both our meals. I finished with an expresso Martini. The service was excellent and the staff was really friendly.All in all It was a really lovely evening.

Despite sign on fence advertising patio dining, we showed up and was told, no food service on patio. Then we noticed people ordering and eating food on the patio. We then asked why this was happening when we were told we could not be served outside. Reason given, was those eating on the patio had booked tables inside, but wanted to eat outside. ??? We then watched people being turned away and were told there were no tables available inside. Now I may have not been great in school, but I do believe there must me at least two tables unused inside as those who booked them, are now outside. ?? Then the next evening we passed and there was a paella night with all eating outside. Unbelievable.

Told can’t order food at 1:30 as restaurant closes at 2:00 - even though cooked food was being served as I stood there. Manner of the individual explaining this was not customer focused and quite blunt. Saving grace is having eaten here before I can attest to the quality of the food which is very good.

This is a lovely place right on the seafront. It has a lovely outside seating area which is great and important as we have a dog which is not allowed inside. The real shame is that we found we had to book a table in advance to be able to eat dinner (inside only), and apart from lunchtime and paella night on a Thursday you cannot eat outside!?? Really don’t understand the rationale as we wanted to eat (menu looked lovely) but had to settle for a drink only. In the time we sat there, there were 7 empty outside tables at 6:15pm (only 2 tables occupied) on a sunny Friday evening and 5 inside. There was us (2), a party of 4 and another 2 in that time that wanted to eat but was told no because they wouldn’t do food outside. The pub next door (was really busy inside and out) - both food and drink. Really think The Waterfront is missing a trick here and could be doing so much more which is a real shame as it could be a real gem.

A disappointing experience today when we went for lunch and I assume the same would be the case for dinner given how it went. I booked yesterday and asked about closing time which I was informed meant the whole restaurant at 1400 hrs, not the kitchen. My fish gougon's were on the menu as " Strips of breaded fish" but were in fact frozen re-formed minced fish in batter which could have come from Iceland ( The supermarket). Absolutely dire and made worse when I was asked if I wanted them in a sandwich or baguette. My OH enjoyed her Ploughman's which was great value and the saving grace of the visit, we had not been for a while. What really annoyed me was being told card payments must be for £10 min when ordering our drinks at the outset. Not having the drinks delivered until we ordered our food was diabolical and set the tone for this review. Others were arriving at 1330 hrs and having food orders taken but not informed they would have to finish by 1400 hrs despite the prep time and delivery to their table. I should have heeded the first warning when the menu said Calamary, will never return which is a shame living on the doorstep.

Miserable experience. My second time of visiting this venue (always worth giving places a second chance), but the dismissive welcome and bizarre set up means I won't go back. This extends to the timings - advertising closing time of 2pm when in fact it's 1.30pm! At lunchtime, at the weekend! You'll be much better off at the "Beach fish and chip" shop on Church Rd.

Freshly cooked chips from real potatoes, yummy. Not quite as good as chips from the old Yarmouth Market but close. Don't go to Yarmouth Market for chips anymore. The new Market (shed) is naff, no shops, expensive parking and what chip stalls are left aren't as good as these. So stay in Gorleston, park for free outside (limited spaces) or on Marine Parade (short walk) and enjoy yummy food. The place is pretty clean and the staff friendly and helpful. I've only tried the chips but spying on other tables food it all looks good. Enjoy 👍

Service was friendly and efficient. There is dining space inside and outside, the outside is also partly covered which is nice on a drizzly day! There are loos on the premises and also a disabled loo facility just next door which you may need a key for. Dogs are allowed outside and the waitress treated our little one with a tub of whipped cream and dog biscuit on top. The beach car park is set back a little into the village a few minutes walk away.

During a recent trip to the area, my wife and I dined on two occasions at the Waterfront and the food was outstanding. On our first visit I had the Pork Saltimbocca whilst the other half had Chicken and Prawns. We were both so impressed with the standard of the food and the restaurant, that we returned a few days later for the Paella night. This was equally delicious and at £24 for the two of us was tremendous value. Paella night is on Thursdays and can be fully booked up weeks in advance, so get your order in early. Very friendly and attentive staff helped create a good ambience in a smart looking restaurant. Would recommend and return again if ever in the area. Top notch.

Whatever happened to customer service? My wife and I visited Keesingland today and saw this very smart restaurant overlooking the beach and thought that would be a nice place for lunch. Looks are not everything! I walked into the restaurant at 11.45 and asked if I may book a table for lunch outside on the terrace. I was told that we do not take bookings for outside on the terrace. Fair enough a lot restaurants do not reserve outside tables. However I was also told that the restaurant closes at two which I presumed that meant last orders, but no the restaurant shuts the doors and the staff go home. We were also told that if we came at 1.00pm and the restaurant was busy we would not be able to order off the main menu , but you could have a sandwich if the chef was not too busy. I mentioned this was rather an unusual approach to customer service and the reply was “it works for us” so we had lunch in Walberswick.

I've been eating here for over 10 years and the food is incredible. There is literally nothing else in the whole area that even compares. I see alot of people waffling about the fact they can't get tables, and saying the waterfront isn't as good as they think they are 🤣 the reason you can't get a table is because everyone who preplanned and booked early has all the tables. I advise you to book very much in advance to be able to experience the wonderful food this little gem produces. The staff at this restaurant work incredibly hard and always do everything they can to make your meal a brilliant one. Do not listen to the negative Nelly's that haven't even eaten at the waterfront and still feel like leaving a personal attack on the staff and restaurant 👍

We are staying at Heathland Beach campsite in Kessingland, and we walked down into the village. As we wandered down by the gorgeous beach, we stumbled across The Waterfront. What a fabulous place!! So pleased we stopped by. Our lunch consisted of a massive prawn baquette, tortilla chips and a salad. I didn't anticipate how massive the delicious baguette would be!! Fortunately, we managed to munch our way through them. Stuffed!! Nice toilets and lovely staff. When we return to Kessingland (we don't live far away), we'll definitely come back for lunch!!

Food was nice but a shame we were greeted by someone who was rude and abrupt when we asked for a table. They said they were fully booked, but then said "you can sit there if you want" pointing to a table. So you were not fully booked? Clearly just didn't want children in there. Disappointed considering a family of 6 ordering food and drinks would earn the business a few quid. Maybe they were having an off day but front of house soft skills need a bit of work.

Which begs the question ,why ask how many for ? It seems they’re very “ in-to-bread “ and don’t want “ foreign folk “ there . Foreign folk being all people not from Kessingland .

We had dinner here twice last week whilst staying in the area. It is spotlessly clean with attractive decor and a "beach hut" vibe, but very comfortable and modern with views of the sea. All the food was delicious, there was a lovely varied menu,...

We were both going to have a dessert but we’re full, but we managed to share one (Bakewell cherry cheesecake 😋) as looked too good to miss! And it was .

Sitting outside eating their food with the views you could think you were abroad. We eat here on a regular basis and would recommend it without hesitation. The home made desserts are insanely good!

What an absolute gem! Having several food intolerances including gluten and dairy ( plus others ) it was unusual today the least to find somewhere catering for such people. To discover that ALL their offerings are gluten free, many are vegan or dairy free and are homemade on the premises was a FANTASTIC FIRST!. Although quite small, the cafe is very homely and welcoming and the young lady ‘ front of house ‘ was so friendly and helpful. Her mother who owns the business should be very proud … and perhaps a little more tolerant if tables are not cleaned before customers have left the premises 😉. We shall return and recommend!

We read the trip advisor reviews and thank goodness we did. What a lovely lunch, one veggie special and two meals off of the same menu. Friendly service and great decor, highly recommended.
