Booked a standard room, got upgraded to a suite with two rooms and a private bath. Can&#39;t complain about that for the price we paid. A nice surprise.

The staff were so lovely, really made us feel welcome. They even brought a bowl of water and a little treat for our dog, which was a thoughtful gesture. The wine list had some interesting local options, though a few more by-the-glass choices would be nice.

The fried breakfast is my go-to. It&#39;s always piping hot and feels like a proper, hearty start to the day. My wife swears by their scrambled eggs with her coffee. Solid value.

Decent pub, nice vibe. The kids&#39; meals are a decent size for the price, which is a relief these days. My little one finished his fish fingers and chips, so that&#39;s a win.

Really nice staff here, super friendly and attentive. Felt like they genuinely wanted you to have a good time, not just going through the motions. Made the whole meal feel relaxed.

Max is a gem. Always checking in, making sure you&#39;re looked after. He remembers what you like, which is a nice touch. My glass was never empty, felt like a proper local spot.

Been here a couple of times now. It&#39;s a really pleasant spot, and the staff are always so friendly. The food is consistently good and honestly feels like a fair deal for the area. Just a small thing&mdash;I&#39;d love to see an oat milk option for my coffee.

The breakfast buffet is a solid choice for a group! Good spread of hot items and pastries. The oat milk was a nice find for my friend who&#39;s dairy-free. Staff were really on it with the coffee refills. Made for a relaxed, chatty morning.

A reliable spot for a quick breakfast. The coffee is good, and the service is efficient even when it&#39;s busy. I appreciate how they keep things moving smoothly, so you&#39;re never waiting too long for a table or your order. Makes for a very easy, comfortable meal.

A nice spot with a decent buzz. The building itself is lovely and historic. The staff were friendly and knew a bit about the pub&#39;s past, which was a nice touch. Food was fine, though the service was a little slow.

Cosy little spot, tables are always spotless. Booked a week ahead for a Friday dinner. The grilled sea bream was just right, skin crispy, flesh moist. Portion felt a bit small for the price, but the cooking was spot on.

Window seat with a cracking view of the bay. Food looked the part too. Nice to eat without the seagulls trying to nick your chips.

Breakfast was decent, coffee hit the spot. The view over the beach and the Cobb is the real draw here. Menu&#39;s got a lot on it, but honestly, for what you pay, the portions could be a bit more generous.

Been here a few times now. The croissants are spot on, flaky and buttery. Sweet potato hash is solid too, simple but done right. It&rsquo;s the kind of place that just gets the basics.

The paneer dosa was spot on, really fresh. The rava one too, crispy and not greasy. You can tell they put effort into them. A bit on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for.

The staff were so friendly and made us feel right at home.

Lovely family-run place. The staff were so friendly and attentive, made the whole meal feel really relaxed. A nice find in Brixham.

The pasta was cooked al dente, just right. The tiramisu was the standout, really good. That&#39;s what I remember.

Their Sunday roast is a proper one. The pork belly was spot on - tender, with a good bit of crackling. All the trimmings were there, and done right. One of the better pub roasts I&rsquo;ve had in a while.

The Hour Glass is a charming, historic pub with a cozy atmosphere and friendly bar staff. It&#39;s a great spot for a pint and chat, especially on a Saturday lunchtime.

The sausage rolls were really fresh, you could tell the pastry was made that morning. For a busy seaside spot, that&#39;s a nice surprise. The filling was well-seasoned and not too heavy.

Perfect for a quick bite. The scones with cottage cream are a standout. Grabbed a raspberry-orange cake too. Both were fresh and hit the spot. Service was quick, got me in and out fast.

The ale selection is a real treat. Everything arrived piping hot, even through the app. Just a bit pricey for the portions, but the drinks are fairly priced.
