And yea.. cN not wait to checkout weather and Next opportunity to to there, i need swimming as ... ASAP:))
In February the wind howls the waves are rolling and the only ones on the beach who are enjoying themselves are the dogs. Marina cafe provides a haven to those who have braved the weather to blow the cobwebs away. Good value, good service, clean and tidy and they accept euros. Easy parking in the winter.
I'm giving you guys a 5 star cos your system during lockdown works very well and a plus the guy at the ice cream shop was very chirpy which was a welcome change regarding our situation. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there ...
Even in march !What better than a visit to camber sands ! And here this nice cafe with fish and chips and more and good coffee - lovely seating beside the beach with nice open views.... Good seating !
Scampi was nice and juicy and the chips were golden and fluffy—just how they should be. The service was exceptionally friendly and considerate, making us feel at home. it was a delightful meal that met my expectations. I’ll definitely be back for more!
We stopped with over 90 cadets and adults to get an ice cream. Paula couldn't have been more helpful. She stayed open to allow us to get additional refreshments whole waiting for our minibuses to pick us up. Tha is again!
Lovely place, we sat outside and had wonderful food. Not expensive
great food. a little expensive for what it is but the view and being on the beach make it worth it
Had a wonderful cheeseburger with thick-cut fries, ice-cold Diet Pepsi and cold sparkling mineral water. The food took a bit of time to come but well worth it and service with a smile under new management. Many congratulations and I look forward to coming back very soon.
