Chesil Beach Cafe

Welcome to Chesil Beach Cafe, a delightful haven nestled on Bullers Way in Abbotsbury, Weymouth. This charming cafe not only boasts stunning coastal views but also offers an extraordinary dining experience that leaves every visitor craving more.

Known for its fresh, locally-sourced seafood, Chesil Beach Cafe’s menu is a celebration of the ocean's bounty. You can’t miss the Crab Sandwich, featuring painstakingly handpicked crab from Portland, served in soft white bread, a delicious side of fries, a scoop of tangy mayo, and a fresh lemon wedge. It’s a dish that perfectly captures the essence of local gastronomy. For those looking for something heartier, the Bouillabaisse is a must-try—this light, flavorful fish soup is brimming with succulent chunks of white fish, mussels, and king prawns, all brought together with croutons and a sprinkle of coastal cheddar.

The atmosphere at Chesil Beach Cafe is as warm and inviting as its dishes. Visitors are greeted not just with friendly smiles from the staff but also with an ambiance that feels wholly relaxing. It’s the perfect place to unwind after a stroll along the beach, and many customers have remarked on how the lovely staff enhance the overall dining experience. As one guest noted, “the service was so friendly,” making it easy for guests to feel right at home.

But the charm doesn’t stop at the savory menu. Indulge your sweet tooth with delightful desserts like the Dorset Apple Cake, warmed to perfection and served with Rodda's clotted cream or a scoop of rich Madagascan vanilla ice cream. The Affogato is another sublime choice, offering a delicious merger of espresso and ice cream that’s simply irresistible.

Customers rave about their experiences at Chesil Beach Cafe, with one visitor even declaring it “the best cafe on Chesil Beach” after enjoying an incredible bowl of mussels. Users have also been pleasantly surprised by the creativity in their beverages, like the cappuccino topped with freshly grated chocolate flakes, demonstrating that this cafe goes above and beyond to create memorable moments.

The exterior of the cafe surprises many—a cozy spot set in a car park, yet it’s the hidden gem that truly shines once inside. You’ll find unique touches, including a playful ‘tap the crab’ payment method that adds a fun twist to the dining experience, especially for families with young children who love engaging with the quirky decor.
