Went to the cafe in the morning expecting a pre beach snack, little did I know burying my head in the sand wouldve been a nicer experience. The hot chocolates were disappointing at best, unmixed cups of thick sludgy powder. Out of the four cream teas we ordered (two scones per cream tea) only 2 sets of jam and cream came out without us asking for the rest. Staff were minimally helpful. Once cutlery was requested insufficient amounts provided (all we got was a handful of teaspoons) however cutting scones with a tea spoon is a very fun and engaging activity for all ages. Scones broke into more pieces than a smashed window. Overall a 1/10 and the 1 being for the view

Arrived at 09:50 and the doors were open, I popped my head in and asked if they did Breakfast? I was told no and that they were closed and would be open in 10 to 15 minutes. We decided to wait. At 10 am there was a young lad behind the counter and I went in again and asked if they were open now? The man in the kitchen (presumably the owner?) then shouted see the closed sign in the window, when I turn that around to open, we will be open The closed sign was not that obvious and other people didnt see it and walked in, to be told they were closed! Admittedly their clock was a few minutes slow but we waited until 10:15 and there was still no sign of opening? I found the Manner in which we were treated to be rude and arrogant, I assume that they rely on the fact that there are limited options around at that time? We did not give any of our custom to this establishment and instead, left and waited until the pub (Port William) opened for lunch, their service and attitude, was/is far better than the Strand Cafe. The owner should remember that they are only in business due to customers choosing to spend their money there and learn a bit of customer service or at least some manners!!!! Needless to say, we will never go there again!
