Menu

“DO YOU HAVE GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS?”

Yes, we are pleased to offer gluten free menu items for guests to enjoy. However, as we are a small kitchen, we are not able to prevent cross contamination completely, and ask guests with gluten free and allergen requirements to assess their own risk tolerance.

“DO YOU HAVE A KIDS MENU?”

Yes, we do have a kids menu with both breakfast and main courses, from a children's full English to a classic fish and chips, and of course our freshly made wood fired pizzas and fresh pasta.

“DO YOU DO TAKEAWAYS?”

Yes, we do for select menu items that can be packaged easily, such as our pizzas, fish and chips and sandwiches (including breakfast baps).

“DO YOU DO SUNDAY ROASTS?”

We offer Sunday Roasts exclusively during the winter period, between October and March. However, our other restaurant in West Bexington, just a few miles from West Bay, offers Sunday Roasts throughout the year. Visit The Club House website here: https://www.theclubhousewestbexington.co.uk/
