Great place as a stop off if you are completing a circular walk between Wells and Holkham. Very good selection of sandwiches and salads. Good selection of hot and cold drinks. Nice views across the Marsh and places to sit inside and out.

Beautiful structure, with absolutely stunning views... hideously overpriced food and drink, coffee particularly bad... they offer no plant based alternatives to milk... only offer plain Americano... for the prices they charge, options would be lovely! Always a huge queue for the toilets, which aren't always very clean, and often no loo roll, take tissues with you!
Food is ok... very overpriced and nothing outstanding or innovative.
However, this is my very favourite beach with my very favourite walks😀

A place in the field build for birds watching enthusiasts. A very calm, relaxing place to spend time either with someone or by yourself. Clean place, cozy place with plenty of toilets, also dog friendly with fountain in the middle of the cafe were fur buddies can drink.

Stunning day capped off by a relaxing tea in this perfect cafe. Lots of simple lunch items all made that day and welcoming staff eager to chat to our little one. They have bird guides and binoculars to use. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Would be even better in the summer.

This is a lovely little café. A simple but beautiful piece of architecture in great surroundings with amazing views.

The ethos of the café is also great. No single use plastic used - all packaging (that look identical to plastic wrapping) is made of vegetable ...why is this not used everywhere.

Some food such as the ice lollies (yep the kids had those despite it being February) come totally without packaging which is a nice idea.
Their coconut flap jacks are also very tasty ...and again no wasteful plastic packaging.

When it comes to hot drinks the choice is limited. They’ve kept it simple serving filtered coffee and tea - so no fancy lattes, flat whites etc in order to reduce waste. Once again I like it!

Along the perimeter binoculars are available to view the beautiful surrounding landscapes which are full of wildlife - something the kids really enjoyed.

In general this is an amazing spot with a brilliant ethos that teaches everyone some very important lessons.

I haven't "met" all the staff but Samantha is a super star!! 😇
We have tried gluten free cake and my kid loved it (quite a few choices, individually wrapped)
And just tried the new drink- flawsome and strawberry one is awesome!!
Just a little nudge in the right direction- toilets could be better maintained 🫣

A lovely little spot, just in the right place. There are toilets here but the amount is limited so expect to que. The pod offers lovely shaded areas and lots of dog water bowls too.

Such a prime beauty spot to have a sandwich or cake, with tea or coffee etc. Some dry covered areas, some elemental. Books to read on local wildlife.
Dogs welcome.

This is a relatively new building at the side of the wonderful Holkham beach and woodland. We had sausage roll and a pastry with nice fresh cup of tea which we ate while walking down to the vast beach . After a great walk and relax on the beach we bought take out sandwiches and coffee cake will delicious

Lovely spot to stop for a coffee and slice of cake, friendly staff and dog friendly. Great to walk onto holkham beach.

A fantastic, sustainably built structure with environmental conscientiousness at the heart of its operation, from the wrapper free ice lollies, to the corn starch wrappers on the flapjacks. It's minimal approach to coffee and refreshments let's you get on with what you actually came here for; the view and a seat to relax and take the weight off your feet for a little while.
Friendly staff inside and dog bowls outside make this an ideal stop off point after a stroll on the beach.

Such an intelligent, well considered, attractive and convenient addition to Holkham Beach. The water fountain for free water bottle refills and water bowls for dogs is a superb feature. The architecture is pared back; simple and elegant with natural materials. Healthy and sustainable food choices too.

Great spot to watch wildlife and get a hot beverage after walking the beach. There is a limited amount of snacks available as well.

Cafe serving cold food and hot and cold drinks. They do coffee but only filter coffee and decaf. They do have some non dairy milks though.

What a fantastic place, really stunning design and surprisingly eco friendly. No plastics or non-recyclable packaging. Staff explained the ethos really well.
Loved it, well done to all.
