A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
Breakfast with the estuary in view
An independent village shop and café with an outdoor outlook over the Avon estuary, fresh coffee and a small winter menu.
Pause near the top of Bantham village before continuing down to the beach. The stores combine everyday provisions with a café and an outdoor seating area overlooking the water. Bantham Estate welcomes Darren and George as the new leaseholders, with a refreshed look for this village stop. The current menu makes it an appealing breakfast or early-lunch plan: choose something from the kitchen, enjoy a coffee, then pick up a few things for the rest of the day.
