Cafe Bovisands in South Hams

Friendly staffs and nice food!

Amazing views lovely hot chocolate and bacon roll.

Great full english breakfast here for £6 and lovely friendly staff.

This cafe has an excellent location and fantastic views. They have even provided binoculars for their patrons to use as they look out over the breakwater.The staff are friendly, helpful and very welcoming. The whole cafe is clean and nicely decorated.They have a decent menu of basic staples and sandwiches/ panninis as well as offering baked potatoes with various toppings/fillings. There is also a selection of cakes to go with coffees and teas. They also do breakfasts/all day breakfasts which I assume are cooked from scratch from fresh ingredients, although we didn't try these as for once we felt like something else. (Scrambled egg is apparently an option at a small extra cost (50p)The icecream selection is good, not simply a "standard" freezer full of Walls basics.The food is reasonable and comes in decent portion sizes. It makes a good stop on a walk or for lunch with a view.Only two things that took this.from 5 star to 4 star:The kids food was served in a box (like a happy meal). Ideal for takeaway, but not so useful when eating in...The chips were from frozen chips. They were, fortunately, fried which made a difference. They were certainly hot, but not "proper" chips.The fish (for the fish and chips) was not fresh fish. It seemed to be the pre-prepared frozen battered fillets. Not as tasty as some unfortunately, but OK.The pizza twist was also a little bland, despite being pepperoni.I certainly understand that for a small cafe at the end of the high season it can be difficult to provide home cooked food from fresh ingredients but this was, IMHO, a missed opportunity.

I rarely comment on experience in cafes etc.But today we had very enjoyable lunch at Cafe Bovisands, baked potato with brie and cranberry was excellent. Extremely pleasant friendly staff,we also enjoyed a delicious coffee (latte).The view is a bonus.Good value. Would recommend.

Very cold in cafe had a panini but the cheese wasn't even melted all food very plain nothing really tasty

Really liked the place. Great home cooked food the hot chocolate and sticky toffee pudding was excellent.

Unfortunately, the shop was closed next door to the cafe. I thought on the off chance there might have been milk for a coffee and if not was going to order 2 to go. Unfortunately the response I got was very unwelcoming and unpleasant. Very very disappointing to be honest

Always a worthwhile place to go. Nice selection of food and very good service. Views to die for!

Good coffee, hot chocolate and milk shakes enjoyed with a stunning view out over the sea.
