We had our child's 6th birthday party, the staff at the diner catered for 30 children and 15 adults, environment and food was great. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Birthday cake they provided was amazing! We cannot thank everyone enough. Would 100% recommend.

Went here with my partner and his family for our birthdays, was outstanding! I have lactose intolerance and my nephew has multiple allergens and the catered for both of us very well. They have a massive allergen and Vegan menu. The waitress’ serving our party went to the kitchen and checked what meals were suitable for our nephew and had everything double checked on food packaging. Couldn’t recommend enough! The food selection was amazing and there was lots to chose from. Would definitely go back again!

Really great meal here after a day at the seafront. Fun place, especially for the kids and as it was October half term, it was decked out with spooky Halloween stuff. The kids had a treasure trail to do to find all the giant spiders and they got a lolly at the end of the meal. Staff really friendly. Vegan options too which we're good (pictured is the personalised vegan burger). Even vegan milkshakes! Will definitely try and go back.

I'm shortly going to be leading a fabulous 50s themed wedding held at Grumpy's Diner. It's the perfect venue for it, and Kerry has been so great to work it through with! Can't wait to get back there for the big day.

Went for a meal for mine and my girlfriends birthday. Staff were very friendly and happy to help. They were very accomodating to my girlfriend who is lactose intolerant and my nephew who has multiple allergens. Fantastic quality food and a great atmosphere all round the resturant.

1 = poor 10 = excellentWelcome 6Atmosphere 5Cleanliness 5Speed of serve 4Attentiveness 6Food quality 5Value for money 8Drinks 7Friend welcome and quick to take order.Food was slow to arrive considering that place and nearly empty.While was waited it was easy to see that the place needed and detail clean or less ornaments for them to clean.During were stock, mostly bottled. Bottled cola with straw, no offer of a glass.Once food arrived, it was reasonable well presented. It seemed and lots of it bought in, but the items that should be fresh looked like they were.The food was ok; that it thought just ok. I could have bought ready meals and ovened them for the same result.All in all it was cheap, look nothing like any American dinner I’ve ever been in (unless you stole all the cliches from films and TV shows), strangely offering English breakfasts (American cooked are way different); the food hot and edible.Would I revisit? Yes, but mostly for either convenience or no other choice.
