Apple & Parrot in Torbay

We came in because our wife's wanted to use the nail salon across the road. So the husbands were left with the children. The hostess brought us board games and let the kids sing songs. It was a very nice experience. Highly recommend. Thanks for such a good afternoon while we were on our holidays and THANKYOU DJ Emily.

Nice relaxed atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks. A must if you like your alternative music

Great night last Saturday. Bar staff friendly, great Motorhead cover band, friendly punters up for a chat and a laugh. My favourite of the pubs we visited in Torquay.

Had a great band on the Friday night!! Called The Upperhand!The place was jumping. Drinks were a very reasonable price. Will definitely go back.

Nice pub and people who were in there were friendly

Love this place, great atmosphere when it's busy and live bands are playing. Nice pool table too

Crazy atmosphere last weekend, great pub.

Went for Burn it Down festival. Absolutely fab pub. Managed to catch the f1 in there as well. Staff were great, and drinks were reasonably priced. Would return.

Great pub, awesome staff good vibes on a Saturday night!

Waited for about 30 minutes to get served, which is bad enough as it is. Then, finally, the ex doorman, who for some unknown reason has been given a job behind the bar when he obviously has incredibly poor bar skills, decides to serve someone who's been waiting to be served for less than 5 minutes. The guy he just served, then told him that I was next, but being incredibly ignorant, he then decides to ignore him. Then, when I tell him that I was next, load enough for him to hear me over the music, he ignores me, then, when someone else tells him I'm next, he then turns to me and tells me that he won't serve me because I shouted at him!!!! If you want good staff and a good reputation, Alnardo, then may I suggest that ex doormen aren't the best option for putting them behind the bar, particularly when they're so fragile and so obviously incapable of providing an ounce of service. Never ever gonna spend another penny in that place.....good luck for the winter months

A great rock bar. Great music and atmosphere.

BEWARE!!!!!!! Violent door staff punching a member of my family for asking for a pint at the bar! Rude staff that said if your not from torquay your not welcome in here! Disgusting behaviour would never go there again.

Early doors drinks here. My brother liked the selection of ciders. Prices weren't too high and were served quickly by friendly, polite bar staff.

Mostly punk or metal when I went. Good live band venue and the door staff were pleasant which is always good.

MUSIC VERY LOUD,BUT ACCOMADATE FOR ALL

Opening times is an absolute lie

Ok pub staff very friendly plus golden retriever super friendly

Always a great atmosphere, lots of love music! Played here recently with our band "Too Funk To Druck" the staff were all awesome, really helpful and friendly! Highly recommend popping in if you're in the area!

top place to abuse drugs on a friday night

Live music 🎶 till midnight. Open till 3am

Lovely pub friendly atmosphere xx 2 year in row still fab staff very friendly xx felt at home x

Very exciting place for a great nightlife !!

One of the best pubs in that area

Great little pub serving a good range of drinks. Good atmosphere with polite helpful staff.

Always a great place to drink, listen tousic and meet people.

Where do I begin?? The place looked dark from the outside like they were closed. The toilets need some serious work or a complete refurbishment they are awful. The staff are friendly. Lots of flies in bar. Pool table not fit for purpose wonky not straight and the pool cues are awful. Very loud bar. I can't understand how dirty and messy this bar is compared to parklane owned by same company u think they'd invest alot more into the apple and parrot wouldn't u? They look completely different bars.

Needs a big refurb to say the least.

Best place to find an atmosphere and good music mid week

Trans barmaid was lovely and doing all of the work. Had a good pint with my husband

Out of the box music.. Brilliant service.. friendly staffs and lively happening environment :-)

Enjoyed it here quite lively on Friday night when we went here.

Lovely pub on a night out. Very decent bar prices with efficient service. Lovely seating area outside to appreciate the weather.

If I want to join the transgender movement, it would be on my terms. Door staff good lads.

We come on holiday and staff always friendly and helpful kind of bar I like being a man of mature years (71)

Met a guy called Andy there, engaged in riveting conversation about wall paper, tesla stocks and how he only saw his kid for 30 minutes in a coffee shop out of the whole weekend he was in torquay

Good music, broken pool cue, table wonky, no. Darts and no chalk for Cue

Nice pint, pizza options seemed great too

Nice ambiance and sells Coors light

The girl behind the bar was really good and always smiling and even chatted when outside having a break

Loved this bar, not for the feint hearted but enjoyed the music.

A great little place to go for a few pints

Don’t even bother saying Angela hear the general manager and security laugh at you. Avoid at all costs if you’re a girl!! Not safe at all

Sports bar just popped in for a pint

Was asked to leave after paying £15 entry. With no explanation as to what the problem was. Very disappointed 😞

Nice bar very nice inside, the stage looks great, music pool, darts board but pity pool table had fixed cover on. Hopefully that be in use again soon.

Great live music, welcoming atmosphere, reasonably priced drinks

Great atmosphere and choice of beer on draft

It's my local and I love this place. The stuff are super friendly. Great atmosphere. Even other customers make you feel welcome. Usely spend the summer drinking a Guinness with my mates sat in the table s outside relaxing and enjoying the sun. Then drink are great value and great quality.

I fell asleep. Sorry. They were very nice about it though.

Helpful friendly service. Lots of TVs for sports

Love this pub . Basic but great prices and live music from local talent excellent

Nice pub but what put our party off was the toilets they where foul !! Sticking and tissue urine/water all over the floor it was around 9pm Friday 24th Feb 2023

A very good selection of beers and ciders, fairly priced, very clean and most importantly helpful and pleasant staff. Many thanks to you all.

Great place for drinks and music

Not bad. Everything else was closed. This was still open!

Just popped in for a quick drink, very quiet while we were there. Staff friendly and efficient.

Great pub for anyone that likes alternative music, good selection of drinks, and live music

Friendly staff, good atmosphere, good prices on drinks Had a blast for my 40th in there

If your in Torquay definitely visit this place. Amazing staff. Great 🍺

Great bar was great entertainment the night we went

Exactly what it says on the tin. Good selection of beer, cider and spirits with a relaxed vibe. Hoping to give it a go when there's live music playing!

Good atmosphere, good beer prices

An excellent metal venue, friendly people, great times and a surprisingly good selection of beer!

Great pub with pool table and live music. Friendly atmosphere, great, friendly staff. Only slight issue is that the pool cues need replaced.

Love this place always have something different and staff are really nice

Quick service, good prices, plenty of seating in & out. Oh and good footy coverage!, live bands in the evening

Good pub with good live music. Beer selection is always pretty good also. Highly recommend

Hey we were there in the afternoon it was a bit empty...staff friendly..

Got charged 17 50 for 2 barcardi and lemonades never acain

A traditional pub close to the Marina. I went there in the early afternoon with my family on my short visit to Torquay as we were attracted by the strange name of the pub! The beer was surprisingly good value and the member of staff who served me was very pleasant. There were plenty of large screens to watch the sport. Slight negative is that the carpet was old and sticky and the music from the juke box was a bit too loud for us so it was difficult to have a conversation.

Great local music venue , friendly atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks

Crazy place, crazy peeps. Ha ha.

Nice place for a drink and it was clean. Stella was absolutely lovely. Staff were friendly and helpful and I enjoyed sitting and watching some of the football they had on the tv. Would go back in. 👍

Been for the past 2 nights. Girst night there was a live band and the 2nd night it was just a quiet one

Great pub, great staff and atmosphere

Sat out side this busy Torquay pub. Good selection on tap. Not a bad place to enjoy the sunset / harbour views....

Live music, decent beer, good friendly vibe.

Old Rosie and black, it's the only way.

A brilliant night had by all!... the resident band were brilliant 👏 👌

Really enjoyed my visit here on my cider tour of Torquay! Lovely helpful staff, friendly locals, even a very friendly little dog that adopted me for a while and sat in my knee. Good selection of local ciders, so had to test most of them. Will be back.

A great place to go if you love rock music absolutely friendly what a place

Went their on a Monday night punk rock band playing not really for me decent location though lot of potential

Always come here when I go to Torquay, nice atmosphere, awesome staff, good music! Just ace

Very cool place with friendly staff

Lovely pub we were there when the entertainment was on they took there time to get things going me personally wasnt in to their music but the pub it self was nice loved the toilets with the little trough fir washing your hands i thought that was so cute

Brilliant atmosphere really friendly staff and all round a brilliant place to go

Nice enough. Trying a bit too hard to be alternative but beer was good and staff welcoming.

Kinda mixed with old and new very quiet tho Kinda gets busy in the evening

Not for people with any sense of dignity

Great pub welcomed us all including children & dogs

always a good vibe. love the live music, staff are friendly.

Pretty cool live music most nights

Nice pub with live music. Great staff. Well worth a visit

Fantastic staff came in twice while down in Torquay for a few days. Welcoming and good selection of drinks. Deffo will be coming back when I'm down this way again. Customer service was amazing.

Decent pub but didn't see a parrot

This pub is a perfect choice to watch the football in with loads of TVs up. Good selection of drinks and the pizza was nice too

Staff are good friendly and polite clean and tidy prices tend to change even though the round is the same and prices are increased at the weekend

Enjoyed our visit good, selection of drinks. Can get very very busy on the weekend evenings. Staff were doing what they could to serve and clear tables but seemed to be understaffed.

We had a great couple of hours playing pool and chatting with the regulars a great group of people

Excellent beer. Didn't stay long enough to say anything else.
