Such a lovely, friendly place to eat. Overlooking the sea and what's more - beautiful food. I really had the best melt in the mouth calamari ever. X
Had a lovely lunch of bacon and brie paninis and some of the best chips we've ever had, all washed down with some strong and delicious coffee which surpassed expectations! We'll definitely be back to try the seafood very soon....our new favourite hidden gem with spectacular views and friendly staff.
It's the best setting....with amazing food and friendly staff. Who, seriously, could ask for more? It's absolutely my favourite place to go....#totalescapism x
lovely intimate diner with awesome food, I had the prawn in garlic butter and they were to die for. Beautifully fresh and exultant service, highly recommend a visit.
Great food, even better service! We arrived at lunchtime, there were no free tables but they made up an extra one for us, we were made to feel really welcome. Food was fantastic, freshly prepared and arrived quickly despite it being busy and as an added bonus, the view is amazing!
We sat there yesterday with the sounds of the waves lapping against the shore, eating lovely seafood drinking a glass of wine , our little Staffy by our sides , pure bliss ! Who needs to hold at abroad , when we have this on our doorstep ?????
What a fabulous place. Lovely staff, amazing location, the most delicious cake and a great choice of drinks. We will definitely be recommending Quiddles to our guests and coming back ourselves οΏ½
Sat outside on Sunday night and it was so good we ate there again tonight - fantastic mussels, calamari, cod tempura, burgers, steak - all good. Deserts amazing as well - have to recommend the Eton mess, creme brΓ»lΓ©e and Dorset apple cake! Can't wait to go back.
Really nice cafe in a really good spot overlooking the West Weare in Portland. Staff were very friendly and even tucked my daughter into a blanket when she got a bit cold. And the food was well above average as well ππ»ππ»ππ»
Superb quirky place set in an amazing location with lovely food. Not easy to find but definitely worth the effort ππΈπ
Fantastic place, great vibe, lovely people, amazing food and incredible views. What more do you want? Highly recommend xxx
Fab service, food and superb setting, love it! Celebrated my Son's birthday in style. Love the friendly Team.
Had a special treat of warm dorset apple cake....complete with candles! οΏ½
.....the best seafood chowder ever! Even the bread roll was delicious....
Excellent lunch we had the calamari and the scallops. Cooked to perfection. Lovely friendly staff and beautiful views
Really enjoyed this little cafe. The view from the outdoor tables is lovely! We arrived in the later afternoon after a busy morning, so the kitchen was closing early but the staff were very friendly and made sure we got our food order placed.
Quiddles on a paella night has to be booked in advance but is well worth it. For Β£7 you can prebook three different types of paella. I have dropped one star as seats are reserved, which is fine if you want tonsit on the beach and eat. There is usually some live music.
life changing calamari and the whitebait, chips and scallops were also amazing. friendly staff and nice atmosphere. highly recommended!
Very quaint local 'cafe' (the lunch we had was more restaurant standard than cafe!) We've been before and sat outside, but booked beforehand this time to sit inside due to the weather. Still had lovely views through the windows. I would say double check the opening times, and maybe book if you need to take shelter!
We went for a late breakfast, we had black pudding and bacon butties, two of us had coffee, my sister had wine.
We did ask for crispy bacon, didn't get it though it was still tasty.
The views are pretty good especially on a lovely morning,
We were watching a rehearsal of the tempest on the sea wall.
A very dog friendly place.
Great place to have some lunch as it has a spectacular view especially when the sea is rough. Staff friendly and polite. The problem is the speed that the food is delivered. I had to convince my stomach that my throat was not cut!!. They may say that the food is prepared fresh. Now I worked in my parents kitchen and prepared all the food fresh. Market porters would have walked out.
How long does it take to make a simple panini??
This is the type of little gem of a fish restaurant you are hoping to find at a beach. Surfer Shack vibes, limited menu of fresh seafood dishes but also sandwiches for non- seafood eaters. I had mussels and sourdough bread, it was plenty and delicious.
Lovely place, great location. Service was very good. Food was good, over priced for the amount served (but this I guess is due to cost of living crisis). Scallops were lovely, Calamari was mainly batter and was stringy.
What's not to love. Great service, great food and a view across the sea and of Portland. Lovely. Worth the visit, even if it's just for tea and a piece of their scrummy cake. At the moment there is Table service outside and takeaway and use of the toilets. Also you can reserve a table to make sure you can sit down and enjoy the view.
Beautiful location at the portland end of the 19 mile stretch of the Chesil Beach. Many fresh fish dishes, home cooked cakes excellent coffee in a space designed to relax in next to the sea. Staff who were willing to serve you and share their smiles too! Yes, they worked as a team to deliver your chosen dish! Try it and find out for yourself, please enjoy! π
Fab we had breakfast Sunday morning. It was out of this world. Staff were so friendly and made us very welcome. Very busy little cafe ππ»π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώππ»
Great cafe with lovely views.
Food great, have had full english and bacon and sausage sanwiches.
Staff very friendly, prices reasonable and dog friendly.
Brilliant place. Food was very good and service EXCELLENT π. Thank you
Popped in for lunch. You grab a table and then give your order in the Cafe. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The food is delivered to your table and was very good. The setting is of course superb being a the beginning of Chesil beach.
There are a few seats available inside but most seating is outside along with a few tables on the roof terrace.
I would definitely eat here again.
Very friendly and welcoming. Recommended the cafe by relatives living in the island and not disappointed. Food was excellent, lovely crab sandwiches at an average cost. Clean & tidy toilets although due to Covid we ate outside which was also clean with sanitized tables etc.
It was pretty busy but was shown a table within 5 minutes. The food was excellent, Chowder, halloumi burger and cheesy chips and the waiting staff were so so pleasant, it was a pleasure to be served by such enthusiastic young people. Views over Chesil beach were outstanding and on such a beautiful day it was better than being abroad.
One of my favourite places to go for the views, relaxed vibe, good food and friendly service.
