A WARM WELCOME TO JULIET'S

 

There is quite a history to Juliet’s Garden Restaurant and Bar.  We first opened in 1982, just as an outdoor café  (we were just ‘Juliet’s Garden’ then, as a clue to visitors that there was no inside). The tables covered the top level terraces that you first come down into. We soon outgrew our little serving shed (although we insisted on calling it ‘the kitchen’) and started applying for planning permission to convert the disused loft of Seaways Farm packing shed into the two loft floors that you see today.

​

Six years later we succeeded! That was about twenty-five years ago. The idea of the Balcony Room started when we realised we just didn’t have enough window seats to keep everyone happy, and our planning had stopped us from opening up the views from the bottom loft.  We built our lovely round room twelve years ago and were able to put the bigger windows in at the same time,  so the views were opened up considerably all round.    We now offer weddings and private parties – services being conducted in the Balcony Room, or filling the lower loft if it’s a large group.   

​

We hope you will enjoy delicious food in a friendly but efficient atmosphere and that you will not only come back time and again, as so many of our customers have been doing for so many years, but will feel free to offer your suggestions and ideas for our continued development.

​

We sometimes recall the words of Juliet’s grandmother:  ‘Don’t do it, dear – it’ll never work’, now nearly forty three years ago!
