Some patrons find the interior to be a bit basic for their taste, wishing for a more upscale or themed décor. A few diners mention that certain items run out quickly during peak times, especially the desserts, leading to disappointment. A couple of reviews mention that wait times can occasionally increase during busy lunch hours, which some may find frustrating. Although the café's cleanliness is consistently praised, a few users have noted that table availability can be tight on weekends when the café hosts groups and families.

One of dads favourite places and I can see why. Pleasant interior with some nice wall art, backed up with great food and friendly (and fast) service. I'll be back!

Came down today for lunch with my daughter. A good selection of food at a very reasonable price. I had the chicken strips and my daughter had sausage and chip (child's portion). My chicken was excellent and my daughter scoffed hers too. They also have a selection of children's meals, pieces and scones. All the staff were lovely and very helpful. Tables are all spaced out to accommodate the new social distancing measures, hand sanitising station when you enter and extra sanitiser inside too. Looking forward to coming down for a breakfast soon!

This cafe is situated within the Peterhead Fisherman's Mission building. Over the past few years there's been a few changes in faces and management but the food, cakes and coffee are just as good as it used to be. Been attending the Fisherman's Mission for the past 35 years and have never been disappointed. The food portions are honest and they cater for all ages. Prices are very reasonable. Well worth a visit.
