The building at 12 Beach Road no longer trades as 12 Beach Road. It reopened in 2025 as Saltsheds Bar and Bistro, same address, new name and a new menu. If you are following an older review or a bookmarked menu, expect it to be out of date.
Saltsheds looks down over Towan Beach, and the terrace is the reason to go. Inside it is a light, modern room. The food is built around hand-stretched sourdough pizza, burgers in beef or vegetarian versions, salads and a full breakfast and brunch menu, with proper barista coffee in the morning. After dark the focus shifts to cocktails.
At weekends it gets louder, with live music and DJs. It also runs bottomless brunch sessions on the terrace. The menu says plainly that nuts are used heavily across the kitchen and that it cannot cater for nut allergies, so check before you book if that affects you.
Dogs are welcome. Bookings go through the Saltsheds website.
