The prices are dearer than menu shown on here, people who run it are nice.Friendly place and the food is nice.

Took my kids for a day out to Grays beach. The manager/owner was very rude to her staff, who looked no more than 14/15 years old. I was quite concerned for their safety as they were preparing and frying the chips in the big deep fryer..like I said they looked quite young. When the manager could see that I wasn't happy with the way she was barking orders at them, she tried to laugh it off. I could see that the kids working there were not happy. The things are over-priced, better to pack your own snacks if you want to spend a day Grays beach.

It adds to the vibes in grays beach itself with music from Asia mostly playing out from the speakers outside giving that holiday feeling . The food and drink is good and affordable , but standing out is the ice cream which if you are old enough to remember is up to mr whippy standards or walls . Delicious!

Disgusting “sandwiches” waited 10 minutes for a cheese and onion sandwich which logically I thought is a caramelised onion and melted cheese sandwich only to receive cut up raw onion with a slice of cheese between two slices of cheap white bread.

Prices need to be lowered dramatically for the standard of food served. Portion size could do with a boost. Wait times half an hour for food to be served. New owners are polite and chatty but seriously need to rethink pricing and portions

Good selection of sandwiches and hot food. Good selection of ice creams and clean restrooms. There is also an indoor soft play for kids.

We went there during a coldish day in October and it was quite warm and comfortable. We had two coffees and a portion of chips. The lady serving us was polite warm and friendly towards us. Would defo go there again.
