Our vision is for a healthy, wildlife rich marine environment. These are just a few of the steps we have taken towards a more sustainable future.

Save money, stay hydrated and prevent plastic pollution

There’s no cost to access our café and members can enjoy a generous discount.

Food is served all day but we ask for final orders for hot food are 45 minutes before closing.

There are vegetarian and vegan options and if you have an allergy please discuss this with our staff.

Takeaway Menu
We have a wide range of food and drinks available to takeaway. We encourage our customers to use reusable coffee cups and as an added incentive, offer 50p off your takeaway coffee and tea. Don't worry if you forget your cup, we have a wide range available in the giftshop and all our takeaway containers are made of renewable, lower carbon or recycled materials which can be composted with food waste.

Keeping you safe

As Scotland's COVID-19 rules are relaxed we have returned to a counter-service but retain our high standards of cleaning and additional space indoors to continue to protect and reassure you during your visit. Our cafe views remain as spectacular as ever.

We have increased our cleaning regimes throughout the Centre.

Face coverings, unless exempt, are required throughout your visit except when seated at your table.

We will continue to follow the latest Scottish Government guidelines which still require us to legally collect details for Test and Protect and also for face coverings to be worn by everyone over the age of 12, unless exempt.

Seabird deck

The Scottish Seabird Centre's seaside sun deck is the only one in North Berwick!

Relax and enjoy the stunning views out to the Firth of Forth, North Berwick's boating pond on East Beach and the Bass Rock - the world's largest colony of Northern gannets.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome and water bowls can be provided.
