We always get looked after so well , waiting staff are friendly and welcoming and efficient.   The food we had was excellent and flavoursome . Complements to the chefs !

Lunch with a big group and the kids. They got us all seated together, no problem even on a busy day. Menu had something for everyone. My fish and chips were spot on, crispy batter and proper chips. Kids cleared their plates too.

Staff were lovely, really friendly. The timing between courses was spot on. Had a lovely wine and the food was tremendous. We&#39;ll be back.

The coffee here is easily the best I&#39;ve found in Torquay. Had it with a slice of their homemade carrot cake, which was still lovely and moist even though we popped in quite late. Staff were really nice about it.

Great for a quick lunch. The weekly special was a solid choice, came out fast and hit the spot. Just what I needed. Cozy spot with a good bar selection too.

The homemade scones were the standout. Served warm on a china plate, they had a perfect crumbly texture. The clotted cream was rich, and the strawberry jam tasted fresh, not overly sweet. The scone itself was light and buttery. A proper treat.

Got a table as a walk-in on a busy Friday, which was nice. Service was attentive throughout. The menu has some interesting topping choices &ndash; I went for the truffle mushroom pizza. It was pretty good, though the base was a touch softer than I&#39;d prefer. A decent spot.

The Sunday roast was solid. Went for the lamb, which was cooked just right, and the cauliflower cheese was a nice touch. Portions are definitely generous here, no complaints on that front.

The duty manager was really welcoming. Staff were brilliant, made me feel looked after. Good customer service, that&#39;s what stands out.

The lamb donner and chicken shish are always fresh and the portions are generous. I keep coming back for that.

Nice spot for a quick business lunch. Coffee was solid, staff were quick and pleasant. Prices are reasonable for the location. The atmosphere is calm, good for a working conversation.

Been coming here for years and the fish is still the star. The batter is so light and crisp, and the fish itself is always fresh. The chips are decent too.

Love the 80s tunes here. The burger was juicy and the fries were spot on. My only note - the wine list is pretty basic, just a couple of reds and whites. Still, a solid spot for a casual bite and a beer.

A nice, relaxed pub. The staff were friendly and it was good to know they allow outside food. We had a quiet afternoon here, and the comfortable seating made it easy to stay for a while.

The delivery is consistently quick and reliable, which is a real plus. Staff are pleasant and helpful too. The food is decent, though the portions can feel a bit small for the price.

Great vibe and the staff are lovely. The house red was a surprisingly good match for the Sunday roast, really hit the spot. 🍷

The private room was handy for our group. Menu had a lot of options, which helped as everyone wanted something different. The lamb shank was the standout for me, really tender and fell off the bone.

The risotto was spot on, and the seafood linguine had a nice kick. But the real star was the house red - a surprisingly smooth Sangiovese that paired beautifully with both dishes. Makes a difference when the wine list isn&#39;t an afterthought.

Always get the cheesy chips here. They&rsquo;re made fresh when you order, so they come out piping hot. The portion is huge for the price, easily enough for two. I usually end up taking some home.

Wasn&#39;t expecting much, just grabbed a burger. The patty was actually fresh and juicy, not like the usual fast food. Chips were the highlight though, perfectly crispy. A solid lunch spot.
