Description

Ebb Carr's Cafe in St Abbs offers a mixed dining experience. While some praised the crab rolls and homemade cakes, others found the food and service lacking. The chaotic atmosphere, rushed service, and inconsistent quality of dishes left some customers disappointed. However, the welcoming staff, well-cooked food, and safety protocols in place were highlighted by others. Overall, Ebb Carr's Cafe seems to be a hit or miss depending on individual experiences. If you're in the area, it may be worth a visit for the crab sandwiches and cakes, but be prepared for potential service and quality issues.

Rude and unfriendly service and was lacking in options for both vegans and young children. Would've been fairly easy to make one of the soups on offer vegan, but I was rudely informed they weren't even vegetarian. The only option was veggie haggis which I didn't fancy so gave it a miss and had a delicious lunch at the Border's Pottery at St Abbs instead. Much friendlier service there which makes all the difference.

Worth a trip to St Abbs just to eat here, very quaint, seating indoors and outside, fantastic views. Excellent value for money. The food was gorgeous, made to order and so fresh. Can highly recommend the crayfish baguette.

Unfortunately, wrong time of day for one of their spectacular looking cakes and had to settle for hot chocolates instead. The menu was varied and the we sat outside on a bench watching food arriving around us. Definitely a tick for next time we are in the area.

Mackerel pate and crab good and very fresh recommended as are the homemade cakes etc. However…..cullen skink disappointed: generous amount of smoked haddock but it lacked the smokiness and richness one expects, fish had all the taste cooked out of it and was...

Visited here 3 times on our recent holiday in the area. From the very fresh seafood to great breakfast rolls it takes some beating. Special mention of the haggis...its to die for. Very friendly staff and a very relaxed atmosphere..
