About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Dog-friendly
  • Charming
With an unsurpassed view over Crantock Beach and the coastline beyond, we are the perfect spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner with a view! (Opening times for dinner vary throughout the year)
Lunch consists of a selection of light bites or larger options such as Caesar salad, sticky belly pork and kimchi salad, squid, scallops, chicken tacos or tempura vegetables and seafood linguine – not to forget our ‘C-Bay’ Burger and fish & chips.

Our more sophisticated evening menu incorporates locally sourced seasonal ingredients to create mouth-watering dishes with Asian influences, such as a beef Massaman curry, pork shoulder and sirloin steak, alongside popular dishes such as our classic ‘C-Bay’ burger and locally caught sustainable fish. Please go to our website for the most up to date menus.

Don't forget, dogs are very welcome too!

    We booked for breakfast and it did not disappoint, service was great but I would expect it to be as it was out of season and very quiet. View is stunning overlooking Crantock Beach.

    We had a lovely lunch to celebrate our wedding anniversary, followed by cocktails sat on the terrace outside, the only thing that could be improved is more vegetarian choices on the menu.

    Lunchtime, choices of meals on menu ended up being mostly small plate tapas size but not stayed as such. There were only two choices that were main meal sized. Therefore we were almost obliged to have desserts, which were a choice of two puddings or ice cream/sorbet so not much choice at all. Service at the table was good but the food took a very long time to arrive. We were happy chatting but not ideal if you are on a time schedule. Food was excellent, tasty and nicely presented, just not much of it.
