A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
All aboard for a harbour-side tea
A converted rescue boat on Watermouth’s harbour wall, serving coffee, lunches and cream teas beside the boats.
A café on a rescued boat is already a good story; this one also has a very pretty place to sit. Storm in a Teacup occupies a former River Severn rescue boat, now settled on Watermouth’s harbour wall with tables around it and a little covered space for less obliging weather. The kitchen serves breakfasts, lunches, cakes and cream teas, with everything homemade or locally sourced. It is a slower kind of stop, best enjoyed while watching the harbour rather than hurrying onwards. Use the harbour entrance carefully: it is shared with Watermouth Cove’s wedding venue, and the café publishes detailed directions for the final approach.
