North Coast Cafe is a relaxed, grown-up space designed for those who appreciate good coffee, great food, and calm surroundings. We’re not set up for bikes, prams or buggies indoors, and we’re unable to cater to groups larger than four. For families, a quick heads-up: we don’t currently have high chairs, and we don’t offer a children’s menu.
Sit back and relax in our delightful coffee shop, listen to our uplifting and upbeat tunes … it’s the only way to spend some quality time in Lynton & Lynmouth.
