Places to Eat
The chances are – after we’ve adventured you – you’re going to want food, lots of food. We’re lucky to have some great places to eat in Tenby and around the Pembrokeshire coast. In particular, two of the best are right next to favourite coasteering and climbing spots.
Bubbleton Farm Shop & Cafe
Few things spark up an appetite like coasteering and 99 times out of 100, one of the first things coasteerers ask us when we finish a session is “is there anywhere good for food nearby?”.
Fortunately, right down the road from our legendary coasteering venue at Lydstep is the brilliant Bubbleton Farm Shop & Cafe run by Tipper and Sally.
Here you’ll find exactly what you’ll need after a coasteer – CAKE
Bubbleton also has a delicious menu of locally sourced produce, great coffee and a amazing setting with animals to feed and one of Pembrokeshire’s best-located campsites – Becks Bay Camping – right next door.
Den's Cafe
Den’s Cafe – a Tenby landmark with tasty food and without doubt the best views in the town. Pop in first thing and you’ll find most of Tenby’s boatmen engaged in the ancient Tenby harbour ritual – of which there’s evidence going back almost a thousand years – of gathering before work to moan about stuff.
Den’s is right next door to our Tenby HQ and as such is the perfect place for a pre-kayak coffee or even better – a post adventure cake.
Den’s serves the tastiest breakfast in town, hands-down. It also has a great lunch menu, has ice-cream, coffee, cake and snacks – you’ll want to eat all of these after our kayak expedition!
Just across the slip is Didi Den’s where a cold beverage in the evening sun is a very good way to end the day.
Motley Pie & Coffee
Apparently pies&coffee is a thing in Austrailia… I can vouch for that – when visiting some acquaintances in Oz last year we drove for hours to for them to show us an ‘amazing place’ that we’d assumed was the Blue Mountains but turned out to be roadside pie shop. It was 30 degrees and the hot pie was… an odd choice. When no-one was looking I dropped mine in a bin and bought an ice-cream.
However Motley – a new cafe here in Tenby has brought the antipodean fad here to the pie-appropriate climate of the UK. And the pies are TASTY! Also, the coffee is great and the venue is a good place to escape the busy town. They serve a menu of delicious non-pie food too.
