Eating and shopping at Souter

Whether you're touring the lighthouse or walking on The Leas, the Lighthouse Cafe is the perfect spot to refuel. Why not pop into the shop to pick up a souvenir of your visit too.

The Lighthouse Cafe

Our cafe offers a welcoming pit stop for lighthouse visitors and anyone exploring The Leas or Whitburn Coastal Park. 

Grab a hot or cold drink and treat yourself to a snack such as a homemade scone or slice of cake. Or enjoy a light lunch; we offer a selection of sandwiches as well as soup of the day and baked potatoes with a choice of filling. 

A children's lunch box is a handy way to feed the little ones, whether you're eating in or heading for outdoors a picnic.

Our local speciality is Singin' Hinnies - a kind of griddle scone which made a whistling or "singing" sound whilst cooking.
