What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Signals Cafe + Bar is a popular spot praised for its delicious food, friendly service, and cozy atmosphere, with many highlighting their breakfast options and unique dishes. While most reviews are positive, some diners have noted inconsistencies in food preparation and service speed, particularly with upstairs QR code ordering.
"Our first visit and would definitely recommend. Great vibe and the food was delicious. We had soup, home made with lovely croutons and pea shoot garnish with a delicious toasted cheese scone with an expensive looking butter portion. The pie was a hit too. Great coffee in lovely cups. The small details make this place special. 4 stars for service only because our table wasn’t wiped when it was cleared before we sat down but we were grateful to be seated quickly. Staff were all friendly."

"We ordered some drinks, loaded fries, goat cheese salads, veggie meatball sub. And we sat upstairs.
The sub meat balls were not cooked well/dry.
The scones were broken when given. There was no cutlery till we asked. My smoothie was fine but the 2 coffees weren’t great. The atmosphere upstairs felt like an attic (the downstairs was better), and the music kept going on and off. One of the waiters was really sweet but overall the service was slow, the food was meh, and the upstairs had a poor atmosphere."

"First time in Saltburn and wanted somewhere we could take the dog. Had breakfast and sat outside, whilst the menu is not huge what we had was amazing. Banana bread with honey & greek yoghurt, and a full English. Service was great, super friendly. So nice we went back for lunch, meatball sub and a nourish bowl, again absolutely amazing. Atmosphere is lovely, we hope to be back soon, such a lovely town"
