With an unsurpassed view over Crantock Beach and the coastline beyond, we are the perfect spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner with a view! (Opening times for dinner vary throughout the year)
Lunch consists of a selection of light bites or larger options such as Caesar salad, sticky belly pork and kimchi salad, squid, scallops, chicken tacos or tempura vegetables and seafood linguine – not to forget our ‘C-Bay’ Burger and fish & chips.

Our more sophisticated evening menu incorporates locally sourced seasonal ingredients to create mouth-watering dishes with Asian influences, such as a beef Massaman curry, pork shoulder and sirloin steak, alongside popular dishes such as our classic ‘C-Bay’ burger and locally caught sustainable fish. Please go to our website for the most up to date menus.

Don't forget, dogs are very welcome too!

    It’s hard to beat C Bay as a venue. Outstanding views across the bay to Pentire and a beautiful restaurant. We were warmly welcomed and had a table with a view to sea. Drinks were served swiftly but without any feeling of being rushed. The menu options were varied and we chose from the specials. The food was just that, ‘special’! It was beautifully cooked and presented and tested divine! Whilst we didn’t have a desert, the selection was very tempting. All in all, a wonderful lunchtime dining experience. We will definitely go again. Thank you team C Bay!
