First time to Cranfield over Bank Holiday Monday weekend. My family I wanted to try The Beachcomber on our last night. We arrived at 5.30pm, there were several customers standing around the till area, so it wasn 't clear if they were waiting to be shown to a table, to pay, or to collect from the takeaway service. We stood for 20 minutes, during which time the 2 very young and inexperienced-looking staff members didn 't come over, hand us a menu, or apologise for the delay in seating us. My husband eventually lifted a menu, having checked with a staff member if it was ok to do so and we decided to seat ourselves. There were no kids ' menus, so I went to the counter to ask the staff, and was t...
Called for coffee a couple of days ago. This cafe seems to be run by a few wee girls with absolutely no training, direction or interest. However the food on the plates going past us looked great so we thought we would go back. We went again for coffee and a bowl of soup. Soup was ok, it was supposed to be served with Guinness wheaten bread but came out with the tiny end of a plain rock hard wheaten and no butter, wasn’t even worth picking up. This was apart from the actual length of time it took for it to get to the table and then we had to ask for a spoon to eat it with. The coffee took ages because the waitress didn’t know how to operate the coffee machine which is fair enough and everyone...
I recently dined at the Beachcomber with a companion and was disappointed with my experience. The presentation of the food, which had impressed me before, was now lacking and unappealing. The meal itself was also lacking in flavor, and both my companion and I were dissatisfied. Overall, my experience at the Beachcomber was mediocre and overpriced, and I doubt I will be returning in the future.
The waiting staff were excellent; the choice of food was extensive; the décor was lovely; the food was delicious and beautifully presented; the location is well worth the drive! (Beautiful views en route. All in all I would definitely plan to head out for the day with the Beachcomber as my destination, regardless of the weather.

Since the beachcomber has recently been taken over by new management the food is first class. I have dined here a few times now and the fish and chips are the nicest I've tasted in a long time. Burgers are also delicious and kids enjoyed the chicken nuggets. Staff nice and friendly and prices reasonable. Definitely recommend.
I love the fresh food at this restaurant, especially the honey chili chicken. It's a shame that it's only open from March to August, but I will definitely be back. Great job, chef!
Amazing food and great quality. Staff all very friendly. Top marks to the chef. Definitely recommended, will be back without a doubt.
