Lookout Cafe

Tucked away along Bowleaze Coveway in Weymouth, Lookout Cafe is one of those coastal gems that feels like it was made for slow mornings and scenic views. Whether you’re kicking off a seaside day trip or taking a break from the Jurassic Coast, this cafe offers a warm, laid-back space that truly delivers on both flavor and atmosphere.

From the moment you approach, you’re welcomed by a relaxed outdoor seating area that gives you front-row seats to Weymouth’s natural beauty. It's the kind of place where you can sip a flat white with the breeze in your hair and the sound of waves rolling in the background. For accessibility, Lookout Cafe makes a point of inclusion, offering a wheelchair-accessible car park, entrance, and seating-making it easy for everyone to enjoy their visit.

Now let’s talk food-because this spot knows how to fuel you right. The Full English Breakfast is a local favorite and a hearty classic, packed with all the essential elements: eggs, sausage, bacon, beans, and toast (yes, the beans are not tinned!). It’s a comforting plate that sets the tone for a good day. Prefer something a bit lighter? The Eggs Royale with a side of spinach is a brilliant choice, balancing indulgence with a fresh twist.

Sweet tooths will feel completely at home here too. Their Cream Tea is served with fluffy scones that have just the right crumble, and there’s always a rotating selection of homemade treats like Carrot Cake, Dorset Apple Cake, or a decadent Chocolate Fudge Cake. Pair any of these with a pot of tea or a frothy cappuccino, and you’re golden. If you're into smoothies, the Coffee Strawberry Banana Smoothie delivers a creamy hit of energy that doubles as a dessert.

There’s no overlooking the savory side either. The Crab Sandwiches are a must-try, especially if you’re craving something fresh and coastal. Seafood fans can also dive into the Seafood Platter, which captures the flavor of the sea in every bite. For more comfort food goodness, the Mac N Cheese Loaded Fries (especially the Porky Cheese variation) add a playful, indulgent spin that’s worth every bite.

Those coming in for a brunch-style experience might be drawn to the American Pancake Stack, served soft and warm, often topped with fruit or drizzled with syrup. And if you're just after a quick bite, Lookout Cafe has you covered with small plates and healthy options, including vegan dishes and vegetarian-friendly items, making it a welcoming spot for a range of dietary needs.

Coffee lovers will appreciate the quality across the board-from espresso to flat whites, there's a focus on smooth flavor and perfect temperature. The tea selection is equally impressive, offering options that go far beyond the standard brews. And for those watching the waves with a smoothie in hand, the fruit blends here are refreshing, vibrant, and surprisingly filling.

The overall vibe? It’s casual, friendly, and feels like a well-kept local secret. Lookout Cafe doesn’t try too hard-it simply gets the essentials right: quality ingredients, good portions, lovely service, and a peaceful setting that makes you want to linger a little longer. If you’re in Weymouth, this is the kind of place you’ll want to swing by more than once-first for breakfast, then maybe again for lunch, and definitely for that second slice of cake.
