The café serves a wide selection of freshly prepared sandwiches and salads, together also with pints of juicy prawns, home-made cakes and puddings. Speciality dishes include locally caught crab supplied by the award winning Ventnor Haven Fishery. The café’s legendary Crab Teas are also extremely popular. What can be better then enjoying a pot of tea and crab sandwich by the seaside followed by one of Jayne’s fluffy pint meringues garnished with fresh fruit and chocolate. Trays are also available for the beach together with a comprehensive selection of hot and cold drinks and New Forest ice creams.

Sandy children and well behaved dogs are welcome. We regret do not accept reservations and operate on a first come first serve basis, so don’t leave it too late to sample the day’s catch.

Please note the café does not hold an alcohol licence, but you are always welcome to bring your own, provided you take away the empties. We do not charge corkage but a glass for the owners is always welcome!
