"After dog walk on the beach we went to the Flags Cafe (easily spot able because of the fluttering flags! The menu was good but I opted for the all day breakfast which was reasonably priced.When the food came it was well presented and the quality of the ingredients was far superior to any cafe I have been to before. Excellent sausages and bacon especially.Then had a vanilla ice cream again expecting usual cafe ice cream ..but no absolutely delicious ice cream. On top of that the staff were excellent.Definitely a reason to take the dog back to Holland on sea for a walk."

Great place with friendly staff right on the beach. Everybody was very helpful even though they were very busy due to the visitors for the Air Show.

Very nice cafe, right on the seafront of Holland on sea, our two large rolls(1 x tuna 1 x cheese n ham) were very well filled, a bit of side salad as garnish would have been nice but nonetheless great value, we enjoyed the coffee too.

After a nice walk along the beach towards Frinton, we returned to Flags for a welcome lunch, as they say the cafe is not fast food as everything is freshly prepared. Portions were generous, very good value and delicious. Staff were fabulous, would highly recommend and will definitely go back again.

having quite severe mobility problems I htought I 'd never make it to Flags but a zig zag path was built not far from the café. It took me over half an hour to get down but there are areas at each turn to rest. I had an excellent coffee and the ice cream is the best ever. I haven 't made it since because in bad weather the café doesn 't open (outdoor seating only) and they 're closed on Monday which was the last day I was there with good weather. Just look for the flag flying on the clifftop 'if the flag 's flying, they 're frying ' and a whole lot more!

"We had been to Franco's many times before and loved it, both under the original ownership and the new. However, it seems that it has changed hands yet again and not for the good I'm afraid. Although, judging by the November reviews maybe it is back on track again. I also note that late September/early reviews are similar to ours, which was very poor. In fact we left before the food arrived, mainly due to the extremely poor level of service we received with our drinks. We were out to celebrate my wife's birthday and to start the evening, the four of us all ordered double Gin Tonic's. However, it took 40 minutes for the drinks to arrive. And if if we thought the time taken to bring the drinks was bad, then you can imagine our disappointment when one of the waitresses brought four large dirty glasses with what looked like water in them. No ice, no lemon, and the mixers already poured in the glass, so no way to judge what level of gin we had received. When we asked about the ice and lemon they looked at us in astonishment. We assumed that they had none of neither, otherwise why bring drinks without the basics? It was like they had never worked in a bar/restaurant before and had just wandered in off the street. To make matters worse, they then arrived later with a glass of lemons and a glass of ice. By this stage we could see the evening descending into chaos and we decided to leave. No apology from the staff or questions, they just allowed us to leave and got on with their business. Very off-putting. We decided to try Killocks, which was surprisingly good. Unfortunately, that's another restaurant off the go-to list."
