Me, my wife and 3 children popped into The Penguin last Sunday for a bite to eat and a drink. We were very pleased with the whole experience. The decore reflects its location with subtle blue and seaside paraphernalia which gave the whole cafe a light summery, holiday feel.
As for the food. Both me and my wife commented on the portion size and quality of the food. Very nice indeed. The staff were very polite, efficient and lovely to speak to.
All in all, a great place to eat if you are in Lee on Solent, and probably the best cafe in that area.
If you love bread pudding this is the place to come, excellent coffee and friendly staff. Great views of the solent I love this place
Quirky seafront cafe. A must for Penguin lovers. Dog friendly, seating inside and out. Happy helpful staff and tasty home style food. The breakfasts are excellent. If you’re having a cuppa don’t forget to have a generous slice of homemade cake. Delicious.
Nice sea front cafe. Great place for breakfast with a view. Family friendly. The staff are always very helpful. We had a little milk spill and the hostess, very kindly helped us out. The food was great and our hot drinks we spot on too. Definitely going again 😃
Great located cafe with nice sea views, Lots of aircraft and boats out to watch.
Went for the Penguin breakfast, great value at £7.50 including tea/coffee. Food came out quickly and was delicious and the staff were all fantastic.
Unfortunately the coffee sucked, it was very weak and the epitome of free coffee so in future, I’d suggest the tea.
Penguin cafe is the place to go for breakfast and bacon butties. If the weather is nice sit outside and soak up the sun. Been coming here for years and always stop off on a bike ride.
Rocky road is good! Staff are always friendly and helpful even when I walk in like a drowned rat when it's raining.
Excellent service today at the Penguin cafe. It was very busy but Michelle, the girl that took our order was extremely polite and a credit to this business. The food was delicious as always and we wouldn't go anywhere else when visiting Lee On Solent
This is our favourite place to take our dog. Lovely friendly cafe with good basic food. Very dog friendly and after a long walk Buddy likes nothing more than to settle down to a 'dog sausage'.
Nice little cafe by the sea.
