Popped in here for a sandwich lunch and tea. The staff were very attentive and the meal was prepared quickly. Wife had Tuna and mayo (a favourite of hers) and I had Atlantic prawn sandwich. both were served with a small side salad and plain crisp. Unfortunately the Tuna sandwich had a bit of a funny taste, the tuna smelt OK so we can only think it was something in the mayo. At one point the owner came over to check if everything was ok, and whilst we did not want to make a fuss (other people on the same table) I did ask what he tuna sandwich had in it and was advised just mayo. The owner was concerned why we asked but we played it down as not not raise an issue about the food. I also tasted it and agreed that it was not right so my wife discreetly wrapped them up and threw the sandwich away. My Atlantic prawn sandwich had a lot of filling but too be honest no real taste and were smaller that shrimps I have seen and had in the past, so again a bit of a disappointment. Finally having ordered a pot of tea for 2, I was very surprised to get a tea pot the same size I have had in many other restaurants and cafe that was a pot of tea for one. It certainly was not what I consider a pot of tea for 2 like other places I have ordered from. Not a particularly good review from me for the Driftwood, but in all my reviews I am always honest and hope it will go someway to improve things, and is as it is on the day of my visit. I will re emphasise that the owner did show concern and stated that he wanted to make sure we were happy with the meal, but the area was crowded with people and did not want to draw attention to this situation. I will add that the whitebait on the next table looked excellent.

Nearly £20 for 2small apple juice & 2 very average crab sandwiches. The crab was nowhere to be seen, the bread was average & slighty dry. The side crisps where average at best and the side salad, a none dressed mix of cherry tomatoes and some dry leaves. When paying this much I expected more, specially being on the coast. All the other places were taking advantage of the government 50% off as this place wasn't it was the only place we could find a seat. No high chair for our baby tho. It's a shame to leave a review like this in these times, it must be hard for businesses but I felt like they had taken advantage of us.

Good food for vegetarians and meat eaters. Book to avoid disappointment as it seems to be always fully booked, probably because the restaurant is quite small
