Boardwalk Beach Club in Edinburgh

Steep prices, and rather slow to bring stuff out. I find it bizarre that they are still not allowing people back into the building and instead are using a surfboard to pass your coffee over to you on. Each request requires further delay - e.g. I asked for "some sugar" after the coffee didn't come with any. The lad then disappeared back inside for quite some time, only to return with a single sachet of sugar. I then asked if I could have a "few" sachets, as (although I admittedly hadn't gone into too many details when I asked the first time), my partner also wished for some sugar. I just managed to catch him before he disappeared inside again to make sure he would bring a stirrer back too, as I hadn't been provided with one of them either. One would think it is not beyond the wit of man to have ample supplies right at the point of delivery, but seemingly it is. This could be an absolute goldmine and an extremely popular destination for so many walkers along the waterfront there, (being a destination for so many people from either direction) yet it seems they try harder to keep people away and out of the place. Disappointing all over really.

Sunday afternoon back of 1pm, asked for a coffee for takeaway and to use the restroom- urgently needed as 31 weeks pregnant , despite buying a coffee I was not allowed to use the restroom. Absolutely shocking and will never be back. Coffee was also overpriced and nothing better than an instant

Terrible - bland soup was not hot and cost a fiver - with a brioche bun?!!The music was amazing... Same song over and over... 🤣 Seems like they want to start a cult to pay the mad prices!

Others have already covered how expensive this place is so I'll mention other things.Staff were disinterested, using closed seating area to play football. No idea why the seating and other facilities are still closed - no toilet available to use.I can only assume that this place survives because it has a captive audience being the only thing within 15 mins walking, but I would recommend you just go and walk somewhere else.Having looked at the Facebook page and the responses of the manager on here it's clear that they've chosen to put on PR multiple times a day rather than actually address anything that's wrong with the place.

Entrance to sitting rooms blocked off and had to order over a fence. Had to wait 25 mins for th order. Paid £18.5 for 2 coffies and 2 muffins. No apologies. No wonder that the Parkrun folk avoid this establishment which is ony 200 m away.

Not a very hospitable place to visit. I was bursting to use the toilet and struggled to walk with my walking stick, down the steep hill. There were two cafe workers there and I asked if they have a toilet that I could use?The answer was "NO"."There is a "public" toilet 10 minutes away - CRAMONDI'm old enough to remember when this was a "public" toilet (before these selfish people got it from the council.If anyone from the Council is reading this, then you need to know that this place is run by people who are completely disrespectful to disabled people.Thank god I never gave them any money, because THEY DON'T DESERVE ANY.

Well, I just had the best coffee in town with the most wonderful view over the forth. Can't wait to moor the boat just off shore and stroll across the sand for a beautiful full Scottish breakfast and that delicious coffee...then, a full day's sailing. Shangri-la.

Very disappointed to find it closed and shutters down at 10.30 this morning(Tuesday), despite it being advertised open from 10.Had young grandson with us on his bike, and the promise of an ice cream at the café kept him pedalling ! Needless to say, not happy when place was closed and no ice cream available.

Lovely toasty would highly recommend, very cheesy! My daughter loved her hot dog too. Coffee was decent too. Fairly pricey, but given the location and how busy it is, not surprising a toasty costs eight quid. Currently it's only taking orders outside and you have to sit on beach wall. But the set up is very good overall. No toilets here.

It's an absolutely beautiful situation.Lovely staff.Delicious bacon roll, BUT I had to start eating it before my coffee eventually arrived.
