Coastal Coffee - Redcar and Cleveland

The restaurant has always been a familiar presence, and now they offer a wonderful variety of ice creams. The exterior of the shop is immaculately clean and welcoming.

I am reviewing the takeout service from this cafe, as I have never actually dined inside as I usually come by after closing time when the window is still open. The window is always open, even during winter nights, and the staff are always friendly and quick with their service. They offer the classic lemon top, and now also a strawberry top option. Although I do not drink coffee, it seems like they sell a lot of it through the window.

This review has been a difficult to think about from a number of indicators including ambience, taste, friendliness and general satisfaction. Firstly. I cannot fault the view from the cafe. It was a lovely view of the seafront and relatively quite peaceful. It wasn’t until we ordered our coffee and hot chocolate that we realised that the taste wasn’t exactly fantastic. Being a coffee geek I am quite interested to try new coffees and this coffee shop wasn’t really to my expectation. The coffee was cold and just tasted like coffee flavoured water. The worst thing is that I ordered a Latte. The staff were friendly however they were acting very rushed considering it really wasn’t that busy. Personally I wouldn’t visit here again due to the general disappointment in beverage standards however the view was lovely. Didn’t get chance to try the food

Went with my son for a cup of coffee and Cappuccino. Both were nice and hot. Unlike many cafes where the drinks are lukewarm. So will deffinately return. 10/10

Popped in for a take out tea, nice to have to use one of the usual chains! Great service, fantastic price.
