The Hook Lighthouse Café and ‘The Seahorse’ will be serving a takeaway menu of hot drinks, sandwiches, soups, chowder and snacks and in addition the outdoor dining options ‘The Seahorse’ and Hook BBQ Station will be open once the weather permits.

Manager at the Lighthouse Lorraine Waters says, “We are overjoyed to be able to get back to doing what we do best and we are very much looking forward to welcoming back visitors to the beautiful Hook Lighthouse from May 1st.

We are asking all of our visitors to help us to help them and to keep in mind all social distance guidelines while on-site. We want to assure all of our visitors that we have taken every step possible to ensure a safe environment for everyone and we look forward to welcoming visitors old and new to the site of the oldest original operating lighthouse in the world.”
