Some of the local businesses, eg... Beer fish & chip shop and Ducky's cafe on the beach will only take cash. There are no cash points in Beer but the post office can be used when it is open, and Beer village store and the Anchor will give cash back.
There are cash points in Seaton at Tesco and Lloyds Bank.
