Open from 8am - 4pm everyday, we offer a mouth-watering range of freshly made food.

Our selection of homemade traybakes are the perfect accompaniment to our incredible coffee. Sea views can be found from through every window, and with our waterfront deck, you'll feel within touching distance of the water - making that coffee break that little bit more special!

A morning well spent getting our hands dirty at the The Coastal Kitchen Family x Minstead Trust Community Garden! 🌱☀️

With some lovely weather and a little expert guidance, we planted Spinach Matador, tackled plenty of weeding and watering, and harvested some absolutely HUMONGOUS courgettes! 🥒😂

Everything grown in our Community Garden makes its way straight into our kitchens, giving us a true plot-to-plate experience. 🌱➡️🍽️

So next time you visit, you might just spot some of these home-grown goodies on your plate! 💚

Many of you will know Katie, our talented baker, whose warmth and incredible baking (and quiz night curry making skills!) have brought joy to so many customers over the years. Following the news of her cancer diagnosis, she and her family are facing a difficult journey ahead.

As a business, we continue to support Katie and her family in every way we can, but we know that the wider community will also want the opportunity to show their love and support.

Katie has set up a GoFundMe to help ease the financial pressures ahead, allowing her to focus on her treatment, recovery and spending time with her family.

On 9th July, some of Katie’s family and friends will be bravely shaving their heads in support of Katie’s journey ahead.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how big or small, every contribution will make a difference. If you can’t donate, sharing this post would mean the world.
