“We stopped by Booths Cafe Bar for some ice cream and had a great experience. The ice cream was delicious, the staff were really friendly, and the location is fantastic right on the seafront. The outdoor seating is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the views.”

“The service is generally pretty good sometimes slow during the hotter weather which is understandable. I've loved and gone to this place for many year now since I was young and I have had nothing but fond memories and have joy in going there. I love their ice cream and hope that this place is open for many more years to come ♥︎”

“Nice little cafe to stop off when out on the bikes. Many of the biker communities use it on weekends so usually many bikes to look at. Options of soft ice cream or scoop. The scoop has lots of different flavours to chose from. The also have biscuits, welshcakes and some chocolate bars available, and coffee, tea, or a cup of spup”
