So, parking fines have struck again. My husband was waiting for our daughter at a local bowling alley birthday party and had our dog in tow. Although not regulars, we have frequented Surfside on many occasions over the past few years. So he called in here, parked the car, noticed the “free parking” signs and walked around to the outdoor seating area to sit outside with the dog while he had a quick cuppa and scone. Not one member of staff mentioned the parking issues or pointed out the signs relating to this. All in all, 45mins outside with a snack. So imagine our horror tonight when I returned from a 12hr shift at the local hospital to find a £100/£60 fine waiting on the table? Obviously we can now see the poor reviews on this and am as disgusted as everyone else re this. We will NEVER frequent this place again and will encourage all family and friends to boycott. Made even worse that the owners are actually our neighbours, can’t believe that blatant highway robbery still exists in 2023.

Visited today with my mam and son. Staff couldn't be friendlier. Lovely atmosphere and beautiful food and cakes. Lovely view over the sea too. Worth a visit.

The food is fab here and we’re hoping to visit again but on reading recent reviews about the parking charges I will not be going bach
