What Sarah Frauchiger likes about Brean Down Cafe:
Visited on a windy Winters day enjoyed a lovely hot chocolate welcome from the lady serving who was very dog friendly. No dogs upstairs but stunning view and funky place to chill View all feedback. What Zoe Teichmann doesn't like about Brean Down Cafe:
After a busy day on beach we were looking forward to chips but sadly food here wasn't the best, chips had weird taste and we're far too salty. We only ate a few and binned them. Wouldn't visit again View all feedback.

Brean Down offers two cafes with confusing names. One offers great homemade ice cream and beach views, but small portions. The other, NT Cove Cafe, provides a nice fish and chips with a sea view, despite being overpriced. A hot drink queue issue dampened an otherwise pleasant experience, while a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff were highlighted in positive reviews. Overall, Brean Down cafes offer a mixed experience, with some customers enjoying the views, service, and food quality, while others were disappointed by the cost, service efficiency, and food options.
