Had lovely breakfast there. Food was well presented, but cafe forgot to plate up the sides that we ordered, and eggs were a touch over done. Overall a pleasant experience.

The view here is fabulous. The tucker is pretty good as well. Service with a smile. It's just not the same since my wife passed. Edit; the poached eggs were hard. Please gang, Eggs Bene must have soft yolks so they run over the toast etc. Better next time, please. Cheers.

First time visitors and we were pleasantly surprised! The other cafe's were crowded so we tried the Strand View. Why aren't there more people here! The food was wonderful, the service was great, the cost was very reasonable and the atmosphere was relaxing!! They could do with a little face lift of the premises but it's not going to stop us coming back!
