Snacking Kraken
Description
Nestled by the picturesque Hele Bay, this café draws mixed reviews from visitors. While some praised the friendly staff and quality of the breakfast, others were disappointed by the breakfast offerings and perceived high prices. Guests enjoyed good chips and pasties for quick lunches, though service experiences varied dramatically, with some reporting chaotic order-taking and unfriendly encounters. The café’s dog-friendly outdoor seating is a plus, allowing patrons to relax with scenic views. Overall, while the location and atmosphere are inviting, the culinary experience can fluctuate greatly, making it a hit-or-miss spot for beachgoers.

Ice creams expensive for what they are. Small, slightly stale cone. Not very cold ice cream. Disappointing. Chips looked OK, if slightly underdine.
We were on yhe beech so decided to get a quick lunch from here. Just chips and pasties. Chips were good and pasties was okay. A reasonable selection of beer wine and cider. Nothing wrong and filled a hole
We pulled into the car park at Hele Bay on a very blustery day in search of a café with a sea view in this area. Expectations weren't high but the moment we stepped inside the bright and cheery cafe, were greeted by friendly staff and saw the interesting menu, it boded well. We both had the spicy falafels with a heap of fresh salad delicious all while watching the waves at tiny Hele Bay. The walk along the coast path afterwards gave us a stunning view over the N Devon coast and Ilfracombe,
We have been using this cafe for many years Coffee is great . Great location and friendly owners Worth a visit
After waiting in line for 15 minutes with only two people ahead of us, I encountered a man who I regretted giving my business to. Despite having cash, it was only after I had placed my order that he informed me it was a problem. The man caused a scene in front of other customers, blaming me for potentially causing his business to go bankrupt and having to make a special trip to the bank. My cash was then taken from me with cooking tongs. This visit to Snacking Kraken in Hele Bay was our first and last. We chose to frequent the garage with the Premier shop instead, which was cheaper. I do not recommend Snacking Kraken.
