The Beach Hut
Blending considered food, carefree beach dining, and a warm welcome. We showcase local, seasonal produce – combining classic favourites with a 50% plant-based menu for a sustainable take on the post-surf refuel.

Our menu
Expect classic favourites – from The Beach Hut’s famous Extreme Hot Chocolate to mussels cooked in white wine and West Country cream, or local beef burgers topped with Cornish gouda – alongside a healthier take on salads and plates from the grill.
Food for thought
Vegetables and farm fruits are local and hyper tasty, the local catch each morning dictates what fish to have with your chips, and peel and eat prawns are MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) certified only.
We are also tackling food waste with correctly sized portions.
A purpose
Our vision is to create a positive impression on people and the planet, reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment. Locality, seasonality, and provenance drive the menu. We want to educate our team and guests on all the great produce available on our doorstep.
