Britannia @ The Beach

About

Britannia @ The Beach, affectionately called ‘The Shack’, sits proudly on the shingle beach of Beesands in Devon. Built on a historic fishing shack, the restaurant has evolved from a family‑run bait and fish store into a local landmark that marries maritime heritage with rustic charm. It offers a full‑service café‑restaurant as well as a takeaway, serving freshly caught seafood, classic British dishes, and a daily curated wine list. Guests are welcomed into an open, airy space with highchairs, free roadside parking, and a relaxed atmosphere – making it ideal for families, couples and beachgoers alike. The venue prides itself on sourcing locally, enjoying a free parking fee, and encouraging visitors to enjoy a post‑swim treat with a splash of local sea salt. Although it remains open year‑round, the restaurant closes on Mondays and Tuesdays (except bank holidays), providing a few short breaks in January and December. The menu is seasonal, featuring a range of shellfish, fish pies, and lighter options like salads and soups. The takeaway service mirrors the dining menu and operates from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm on most days. For those wishing to reserve a table, phone or email bookings are available via the provided contact details. Whether you are looking to indulge in fresh east‑coast seafood or simply soak in the seaside ambience, Britannia @ The Beach delivers a memorable culinary experience that captures the heart of Devon’s fishing culture.
