About
A local, independent, family run business serving genuine freshly ground Italian Espresso Coffee alongside a full range of other hot and cold drinks. We also prepare on site and serve Paninis, Jacket Potatoes, Deep Filled Baguettes, Sausage Rolls, Pizza Breads, Lasagne, Mushroom & Dolcelatte Risotto, Ploughman's Lunch and a full range of Pastries and Sweet Treats.
The location of the shop is right on the sea front and it offers stunning views across The Solent to the Isle of Wight. These views can be admired from both inside the shop through the bi-folding ceiling-to-floor glass windows, and outside of the shop whilst using the extensive number of wooden tables and benches. Also inside the shop is a log burner and comfortable chairs to use on the colder days.
Outside we have a large play area for children, which includes a sand pit, an aeroplane climbing frame and a one-off spectacular wooden pirate ship! We also have a GIANT deckchair to make the most of those photo opportunities.
Also on offer to our customers is free Wi-Fi, the use of newspapers and a loyalty card scheme.
