Hive Beach Cafe Description
This charming café is situated by the seaside right on Hive Beach in Burton Bradstock, Dorset offering a casual and relaxed atmosphere to guests who visit to savour the wide range of food and beverages on offer which includes Italian style coffee, locally made cakes, and an extensive collection of local, fresh seafood.
Try the whole roasted sea bass with new potatoes and salad and mussels steamed in white wine, garlic and cream served with granary bread. If you have room for more then order seared salmon, roasted vegetables and sautéed new potatoes and crème fraiche and twice baked Somerset goats' cheese and confit tomato soufflé, apple and walnut dressing and salad. The wine list is enhanced by locally produced wines such as Sherborne Castle and Portesham vineyards.
During the busy summer months the cafe offers themed events such as Caribbean Day and samba nights to raise money for charities.
Your Reviews of Hive Beach Cafe
Chris - Dorset (3 September 2009)
The Hive Beach Cafe is a gem of a place; yes its casual and a little underplayed, but the food is great and the locale is breathtaking. The National Trust has done a great job developing a very good car park, no longer a muddy field as described earlier. The presentation of the dishes were simple and efficient, and the staff handled the large amount of covers well, although they were challenged a little when it came to clearing tables, nice folk though and very helpful. A bit crowded initially, but we got back at 2 pm after a cliff walk and the crowd had thinned, but so had some of the choices, regrettably. A great lunch nonetheless and good value too, well worth a trip to the Jurassic Coast.

For a fresh fish restaurant I expected better than the frozen preformed cod that we were served, purporting to be traditional fish 'n' chips. The drinks descried as ‘glass of Caribbean punch’ was served in disposable plastic cups, the type used for squash at a children’s party. Not recommended.
