Food Friday - Five Super Sundowner Spots

8th June 2023

When the sun is shining, it’s hard to beat an al fresco watering hole for a gorgeous view and glass of something chilled. We’ve rounded up some of the best sundowner spots in Weston for picture-perfect sunset moments to accompany your beverage.

Captain’s Cabin Bar & Restaurant 

Share a sundowner with friends overlooking the sea from the terrace at the Captain’s Cabin. This bar and restaurant sits on Weston’s seafront at the far end of town, near Birnbeck Pier. With three changing ales - often from local breweries - an outdoor bar that opens on sunny days plus live music, it’s the perfect place for a pint as the sun goes down.

Revo Kitchen & Terrace

Weston’s ‘third pier’, Revo Kitchen, hovers over the beach with uninterrupted views over the bay. For evening drinks bolstered by the golden glow of sundown, Revo has a front seat spot for cocktail sipping to rival Ibiza! Toasty firepits and a pergola allow visitors to enjoy the outdoor seating all year-round, so bring your camera and catch some photos of the town’s iconic sunsets.

Bistrot Pierre 

Bistrot Pierre’s circular set-up, seafront location, first floor dining and outside balcony make it an excellent choice for sundowners in Weston. Head straight upstairs for al fresco drinks gazing over panoramic sea views.

The Old Thatched Cottage 

Dating back to 1774, the family-run Old Thatched Cottage is Weston’s oldest building, and as such, has bucket-loads of character, alongside its sea-facing terrace area and firepits.
Tuck into a great selection of wine, fizz, creative cocktails and mocktails, locally-sourced ales, continental beers, small batch spirits and more, as you relax in the picturesque surroundings, just a stone’s throw from the beach.

The South Sands Hotel, Sand Bay

Nestled in the village of Kewstoke, just down the road from Weston, and a few steps away from Sand Bay, independent South Sands hotel has an enticing outdoor terrace. With lots of live music events come summer, you’ll want to bag a spot for drinks and nibbles in the open air, after a stroll on the nearby beach.
