Possibly the nicest place on the east coast for a bite to eat and a brew.
A place I have visited many times over the years and it has never failed to impress, with freshly made food including bakery items.
The restaurant is also dog friendly which is refreshing to see, and looks over Bridlington and Fraisthorpe bay which on a clear day is stunning.
I was saddened today to learn that only yesterday the restaurant reopened after 4 months of closure due to the lack of staff and the inability to provide table service because of it, meaning only now a takeaway option is available.
There is also a charity box in the toilets where over the years over £28,000 has been raised for local charitable organisations! Incredible!!

Anyone in the Bridlington area looking for a job, get in touch with these guys! A lovely environment to work in by the looks of it!
Walked from Barmston beach to Bridlington South Beach. Found this spot and it’s a lovely half way point to stop off for a drink and food. Lovely food and fantastic environment. The garlic butter in the steak ciabatta was certainly the highlight and the bread was the perfect balance between crunchy and soft. The only thing for us, and it’s purely based on personal preference, is that the steak was a bit well-done. It’d be the perfect ciabatta if the meat was a bit pinker. Still highly recommend.
A lovely place to have a break whilst visiting the beach, great situation, very clean and freshly prepared food. Give it a try. This pill box from WW2 is in the grounds.
Decent cafe and take away options, perfect for a post beach stroll refreshment. Plenty of options on the menu with indoor and outdoor seating.
The calf shed is the take away option with a more limited menu, still good if you want to grab a quick drink and bite.
Toilets available to all beach goers without going into the cafe, parking can be tight when it’s busy. You can walk from the beach car park, it’s not too far.
Based on my take away experience from the calf shed I’d totally recommend. If you’re in need and at this beach it’s not like you have any other options anyway haha!
Amazing little find on my break over to the east coast After all the years heading in to Bridlington, never been to this little gem before, would definitely recommend a visit, and I can guarantee after the first visit, you will return again and again, the staff are so welcoming as soon as you arrive, seating in plentiful inside and out, a pet friendly place is a added bonus. The food is freshly cooked to order, and is of a very high standard, a great selection too, and to finish of any meal the cakes!!
After a long, windy beach walk to have a coffee and some delicious white chocolate and hazelnut cheesecake and chocolate cake was just perfect.
The actual cafe is temporarily closed which is why I've knocked off a star, but I look forward to trying it when it reopens! Although they have done a good job of keeping custom by having a takeaway kiosk selling hot drinks, sandwiches, paninis and a small selection of cakes. They have doggy ice-cream too! (Dairy free and peanut butter flavour) quite pricey at £3.50 for a small tub but it's lovely for a once in a while treat for them.
A nice place for something to eat. Friendly staff and nice food. A little expensive but you'd expect that given the location.
Very nice tucked away eatery right on Fraisthorpe Beach. Popped in here unannounced on the way back to the hotel for a quick drink of tea and scone. Really nice setting with large out door area. Be sure to park before the beach car park to avoid getting stuck in the field car park like I did 😅.
Fabulous find by my friend that I went with, it's not signposted from the main road but either road to Fraisthorpe Beach will get you there. Good food and good Sea Views!
Accessibility good - car park nearby, level entrance with manual opening door. Toilet for disabled (no pull cord).
Indoor and outdoor seated area with sea views, a log burner tucked away in one corner.
Car Park (small) - free near the Restaurant. The Beach Car Park is further along, once you finish at The Cow Shed they ask you to move on there, currently £3 per Car...
Menu - we enjoyed our food, reasonable vegetarian options, vegans ask for food adjustments. I had a Brie's, Walnut and Honey Panini and they were not stingy on the Walnuts.
Staff - very friendly.
Toilets - beautifully clean, including toilet for disabled (no pull cord) and baby change.
We just had soup & bread roll with tea & coffee. It was all very nice with good service.
All food we saw being served look lovely. Prices were a little expensive but it is a nice place in a great location. We will come again.
We’ve been again. Still as good. Lovely burger & chips & mushroom risotto. Both were very nice. We will be back on a regular basis.
It was very busy when we visited, yet staff were nice and surprisingly quick. We had a vegetarian and a full English breakfast and both were delicious and very good quality
Indoor and outdoor seating. A good range of drinks and food. A takeaway available at a separate area. Toilets and parking for the beach... £5 all day, pay by card so a bonus. Miles of almost empty beach. A grat place to go for a day out.
First time back at the Cow Shed for nearly 3 years. Limited to number people in cafe and table service. Very nice lunch and the waitresses are very attentive and tables are thoroughly cleaned between use. Will be returning very soon. 😀😀😀
Brilliant little treasure of a place. Only had hot chocolates, mulled wine and mince pies from the takeaway but will definitely be back! Super friendly staff, brilliant menu and not over priced to say they have a captive audience!!
Nice spot near the sea 🌊 and a great place to visit after your time on the beach ⛱️ to refuel ☕ and relax 💗 and of course dogs 🐕 are allowed !!
An important factor if you wish to sit inside the cafe you MUST pre book a table on line, if not you can only sit outside if a table is available. However there is an excellent takeaway next to the main cafe which does everything you need from cakes,hot food to all your drinks☕
