Thankyou for finding us and dining with us Chris Haslam. Chief Travel Writer,
He gives us an inclusion of the best Beach eateries in The Uk in the Travel Section Tuesday July 07 2026
“I’ve found the UK’s best beach cafés from Cornwall to Co Antrim”
On his journey around the country’s finest stretches of sand, expert Chris Haslam Chief Travel Writer at the Times had his fair share of crab sandwiches, cake and tea by the sea — these were his top spots
“It was a wet walk along the muddy Saint’s Way from my campsite to Polkerris, where I found Sam’s on the Beach in the old lifeboat house. My joy at finding a café open at what, on our coast, is the ludicrously late time of 8.30pm was overshadowed by the fear that the kitchen, as they often do on our coast, had closed at 7.30pm, but it hadn’t, and dogs were welcome, and yes, there were wood-fired roasted sardines (£22) and oysters (one for £4.25) and scallops (£15) and bouillabaisse (£30) and beer (samscornwall.co.uk)”
