Over the last 48 years I have seen this go from a little shop selling ice cream and buckets and spade in the 70's, to derelict and un loved, to now the most amazing , delicious cafe on the Island.
The cakes and especially the scones are to die for. Prices are reasonable and its always busy. The only problem is that now the whole of the country seems to have discovered my one very quite spot!
Its highly recommended!

Wavecrest Cafe by: Wil
Oh Dear Me
So sad to report that I don't own the Wavecrest Cafe.
Wouldn't that be nice? I would be loved by all.
It's a brilliant little cafe located in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at Church Bay
Even better. Imagine owning both the Wavecrest Cafe AND The Lobster Pot
I would be jolly happy and unfortunately fat. There again, I reckon I've worked hard enough.
Thanks a million Carol
Be well both of you

Even the locals love it by: Carol Coates
Hi Wil
We live a few miles along the cliff path from Church Bay and a regular walk to the Wavecrest Cafe is a must for us.
I love the salmon salad, a mouth watering mix of beautiful fresh flavours, rocket, grapes, celery, onion, apple, peppers, etc. all compliment the fabulously fresh and enormous portion of salmon topped with home made mayo and dill.
Husband Barry usually has the gorgeous soft wholemeal baguette brimming with prawns in a delightful sauce and accompanied by home-made chips.
When we walk the long way round - a good six miles - we reward ourselves with a pud too.
Barry loves Granny Hudsons delicious apple pie while I go for the amazing scones filled with jam, cream and strawberries.
Your cafe is the icing on our cake.

introducing a Hungarian to Granny Hudson's by: Graham Hill
Daniel, my daughters boyfriend is Hungarian.
Hungarian (Magyar) food is generally on the 'Substantial' side...about 10 portions of fish n chips = 1 Magyar portion of 'starters'.
So we took him to the Wavecrest Cafe.
Dan had the Med soup (a meal in itself), Roast Ham salad and chips (Granny Hudson portions) and a FULL strawberry and cream scone...not only was he full up, but he was mightily impressed with the quality AND quantity.
As for me, I'm an XXL, 6ft 3inch Northerner and could just manage the Fish pie (chips and salad) and 1/2 an 'all-in-one' scone.
Put a visit to ther Wavecrest cafe in the 100 things to do before you die list :-)

The Wavecrest cafe by: Wendy Steele
I must have had a blond moment and forgot to add the most important bit when I was describing Penny's 'All in one' scones.
Strawberries, loads of 'em. How could I have forgotten them!
