St.Elli’s Bay

1. An absolute gem of a place for lunch. The staff were all great, very attentive, polite and friendly. The food was fantastic, I wish I didn’t have breakfast so that I could have finished it. I will definitely be back the next time I am local.

2. This is the best place that we’ve eaten in since being in Wales this week. The food was outstanding. The young lady that served us was sooo lovely. I can’t remember her name. Blonde ponytail and at collage. She is a credit to your restaurant… (social care) We would definitely recommend this place, and definitely would go back…

3. This place is an absolute gem and somewhere I now like to visit regularly. Usually I get a coffee and a cake of some kind when I’m out walking the coast path, but today I went for breakfast (see photo in my review) which was lovely. The bacon was especially nice, the tomato’s were left on their vine which liked and they were very tasty. Everything was cooked perfectly and it didn’t take very long to arrive either.

   Their coffee is excellent, I am yet to find nicer coffee in the area. Their cakes are wonderful – all made in their kitchen. I am particularly fond of the brownies, but everything else on offer looks wonderful and the custard slices (which I have had before) are enormous. Highly recommend the custard slice! I’ve had lunch here before too, which was delicious. Especially the focaccia bread – wow! All the food is cooked excellently and is nice + fresh. I’ve yet to go, but I believe there is another restaurant upstairs (same business). There is also a gelataria outside serving ice cream. I’ve not tried it, but it looks amazing.
   Service is good. The staff are very friendly and I think Italian run. It has a slightly old fashioned feel to it with the waiters in waistcoats and I quite like this.
   This is also a dog friendly restaurant, so you can take your dog in with you. They leave water bowls outside for dogs too.
   I have found some reviews on here which moan about price and I’m aware some locals are a bit sniffy because of this. The pricing is not unreasonable, actually for what you get I think it’s very good value. This is an actual restaurant, not McDonalds where you get ultra processed, deep fried junk thrown at you in a bag to eat with your fingers. So bear that in mind…

   Located by the beach and coast path, it’s in an excellent location and plenty of car parking too. Overall this place is fantastic.

4. Thought we’d give it a try, as the location and reviews were good… promising start, with friendly greeting from staff and the cakes in the display looked tasty.

   Ordered crispy squid, chicken burger and a couple of drinks. Drinks brought over quickly, again, friendly service.

   The food arrived soon after, and unfortunately was just not great. The squid was chewy, and the chicken in the chicken burger was so thin, it was kind of lost in the flavour of the bun and sauce. The chips were lukewarm at best.

   We were going to have a cake and coffee afterwards, but as no-one came to check if everything was OK with the food we’d had, we just didn’t want to stay. Just to cap it off the staff didn’t even acknowledge or say goodbye as we left… and there were only two other tables with customers (we were downstairs), so there was no excuse of being busy.

   I’m afraid we won’t be going back 🙁

5. Superb lunchtime meal, with 2 courses for £19.95. The main course was cooked to perfection, wonderful flavours and well presented. The waiting staff were attentive and professional. Faultless.
