People took to Facebook to post comments about the closure.

Laura Fitton said: “The Beach Cafe has played a huge part of my family settling into Morecambe since we relocated here three years ago, especially for my youngest, Edie.

"Edie is autistic and as she's navigated the pathway to diagnosis, the Beach Cafe has been her safe space. It has been so much more than just a cafe to us and the teams past and present more than just cooks, baristas and waitresses.

"Without knowing they've been the highlight of our days and helped Edie grow in both confidence and contentment. We'll miss the milkshakes, the coffee and the cake, but most of all we"ll miss our lovely Beach Cafe ladies.”
