The Beach House, Roker Beachfront

We decided to make the most of the gorgeous weather today and went to the beach at Roker in Sunderland. Henry absolutely hated the beach, he was absolutely terrified, but that's another story for another blog!! When we arrived we decided to try The Beach House for lunch as a friend had recently recommended it. The bistro itself is owned by Sunderland Football Club and it's been done out so beautifully. It's in a perfect position, right on the beach and next to the lovely promenade and play park which have recently been renovated. 

The food and drinks were so reasonable, all soft drinks for example were only £1 each. My mum ordered a seafood board for around £8 which was full of crab, prawns, salmon and mackerel. She said it was absolutely perfect and Henry enjoyed some of her fish too. We also ordered a hot dog for him which he really enjoyed. I had an amazing hot dog which was full of caramelised onions, sweet tomato relish, crispy onions and mustard, and Parpar had a massive burger. The whole bill, including drinks, came to £30, which is so reasonable considering the position of the restaurant and quality of the food. The menu was really lovely; we'll definitely be back for breakfast soon and ice cream sundaes when we're back on the dairy! All in all, definitely worth a visit if you're off to the beach.
