Down The Beach — Restaurant in England

This cafe provides a range of hot and cold meals and snacks. It's located at the far eastern end of the beach at Swanage (heading towards Old Harry rocks) and is on the promenade at Burlington Chine.

There is outdoor seating and trays are available to carry your food to your position on the beach as well. Service is generally very prompt and the staff are friendly.

They also serve breakfasts and a range of specials, as well as ice cream and lollies.

They sell a small range of beach toys and public toilets are available on the path...

Easiest access is along the beach from Marine Parade - not sure on accessibility due to beach obstacles and steps - but we took the route down from the Grand Hotel and the steep steps. However, the reward for the effort for getting there was...
