Lovely for brekkie or a bite to eat for lunch. Can get very busy but a great spot right by the beach. Small, so not pram friendly!

Great pub, amazing history and photos on the walls, plenty of salty old sea dogs propping up the bar. Great for music on Sundays. BBQs in the summer and always a fantastic sunset.

Amazing informal Michelin starred pub in Seasalter, weekends will get booked up months in advance but you might have some luck booking for a lunchtime weekday cancellation. Well worth it.
