Appleby's Torquay in Torbay - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Good place for parties and spacious outside area. Right by the seafront. I take my child for swimming lessons here. Sometimes the changing rooms are a bit dirty.

Nice reasonable priced food and drinks

Food alright, slow and rude service.

Had a great time , well worth a visit.

Lovely pub, sadly didn't get to have food,

Nice pub with stunning views, pretty good beer selection, good outside seats and the occasional live band. Would reccomend 💚

Good pub grub and a nice atmosphere

Beautiful chicken pie, would recommend!

Had my son's special 30th birthday here, paid for buffet food an 50 pound deposit, staff were rude to a number of people we invited, in particular one member she will know who she is, when asking for the deposit back was told no because a party popper was pulled an it may block the hoover, alot of money was spent that day by all the guests absolutely disgusted in the place will never go again shame on you

Had the chilli burger and hands down the best burger I've ever had. Food was absolutely amazing, definitely recommend, kind staff even though they were busy with a party of about 30 people. Amazing

Bit pricey not good music when we visited

Lovely little breakfast before heading back thanks guys

Great view from the garden. Our queuing system, strictly followed in all walks of life, falls down spectacularly in pubs. So bar staff needs to on their game. Two people were at the bar before me, sole barmen approached me first. I pointed him to the 2 people ahead of me. Once he'd served them, he started servers others who just rocked up after me. Definitely not 100% barmen fault (patrons should also be aware someone stood at the bar with no drink are there for a drink!), but I had spoken to the barman!

WELCOMING, STAFF FRIENDLY, MUCIC GOOD AND NOT 2 LOUD

Card only. Total rubbish. Overpriced. Bad reggae sound system.

Most unpleasant experience I’ve had in Torquay. So expensive and sullen bar staff. If you’re on holiday try the bars on Belgrave road and save yourself a lot.

Not my scene, I like reggae but it didn't float my boat and drugs were free range 😅

The last snot shop, they are too stupid to take an order and count to five. Unfortunately you can't give less than one star.

Place looks run down. Staff rude . Function area not actually yi

Fantastic views of the sea front lovely pub can't say anything bad because there isn't anything bad about it 😀

Nice place, food was nice, but very small portions for the price.

Stayed in the hotel attached to Applebys but the bar served lovely food not the quickest of service when busy but that's to be expected I suppose price of food and drink very resonable clean and tidy

Great place to watch football, great atmosphere.

We went for breakfast and dinner here, I must say best breakfast we have had for a long time, everything was freshly cooked, dinner was lovely, the lasagne was mouth watering and the home made chilli was rather spicy but was tasty, very friendly staff would definitely recommend

Great place for me to stay, room a little tired but very clean, all staff were very good, food also very good and plenty of choice

Stayed here with my mum on 29/2/24, wished could have stayed a little longer, I've stayed here many times and am rarely disappointed, good clean rooms, lovely breakfast and evening meal, amazing views, the monstrosity across the sroad has taken much of the view away but there is a bit left to admire while you eat breakfast, friendly staff, good beer and ample parking, what's not to like :) see you again soon 😊

Really busy on weekends with lots of people out enjoying themselves and a large balcony with excellent views over the bech

Well the breakfast was plated with 'one of everything'. Heating could be an issue if you wanted to spend some hours in the hotel bedroom during the day. Found a piece of plastic on the bedroom carpet which the cleaner had missed.

Stopped by one evening and it was amazing, came back the following morning for breakfast. Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and well priced.

Came here for a 30th party... never been before.. was impressed by how big the pub was... staff all really friendly. It was very clean and the food was great for the party.. the views are amazing of the bay. I can see myself coming back in the summer to sit out on your tables outside, looking at the beautiful view.

Friendly staff. Comfortable place for a friendly chat or a family function

Booked a private swim for myself daughter and grand daughter... In short it was flithy, the changing rooms, pool and etc filthy..I wouldn't even shower there was it was so bad... The ceiling was full of mould d/dirt etc the pool was dirty, the changing area was awful... Please don't book, I will never return

Popped in to watch the football and have a couple of drinks. Good for live sports, good selection of drinks. Friendly customer service 👌 Toilets have been refurbished 👍

Food was good value for money, but the atmosphere was very loud and lively

Staff and food are lovely.....views of Torquay from the patio are a beautiful bonus

Lovely views, great food and Very friendly staff especially Lisa and Kev who always makes us feel welcome. Our only suggestion would be to upgrade to a new coffee machine as the coffee needs improving (maybe a lavazza machine) to keep up with other establishments.

If you ever visit, a great place to start your weekend

We had a really great evening at Appleby's!

We went to a Wedding Reception here and the venue was good. It had a pool table which the kids played on and plenty of space to sit. We enjoyed our evening.

Nice bar full of friendly people . We only went for an evening drink

Loved it good choice of alcohol resealable price

Friendly barmaid, clean tidy bar & toilets but drinks are on the slightly expensive side. Not keen on a Sports bar but good at keeping empty glasses cleared from tables

Went for a birthday and really enjoyed the night 👍

Brilliant hotel room %100 clean and food was brilliant and also the view was amazing!

Pleasant place great value staff were fantastic

Great place very pleasant staff will definitely will be back

I absolutely love the food here. I definitely recommend the lasagne ( in fact, I often do) never had a complaint about any of the menus. Staff are friendly and welcoming every time and the view is amazing 👏

Good choice of beers and food with good service

Food was good service good price right Great view

Limited on-tap choice, the usual ubiquitous standards, but a lovely beer garden with views of the sea and the bay. Addendum: They have Camden Stout, a nicer alternative to Guinness.

Food was gorgeous,service brill. Will most def be back here again when we are down in torquay again

Great food great drinks great area nice to relax and lovely staff to

Nice pub attached to bed and breakfast Hotel

Great deals on food with a fabulous view Evening meals start 2pm they also do a wonderful full English breakfast too with mushrooms 🍄

One of the most beautiful terraces and vistas in Torbay! Plenty of space inside and out. Ordered steak, fish cake, pint of beer and… stupid waitress took it all away half-eaten. Apparently was too tired and lazy to ask if we’ve finished. £50 gone. So yes, staff here is quite rude and indifferent. Looks as if they’re sick and tired of their job and their customers. Maybe that’s why their food is meagre and tasteless and beer is obviously generously diluted with water. Never again! But view is lovely. Could’ve been a very nice restaurant, not this ugly overpriced canteen.

Appleby's is a bar attached to the hotel I was staying in. My experience there was mixed. I went there for my evening meal. Firstly, there were no hand pulled beers. Not a huge problem, but the choice would have been nice. I ordered the Katsu curry from the menu. It was very ordinary, to say the least. Next morning, I went in for breakfast and ordered a bacon and egg sandwich. It was excellent. Perfectly cooked and served on fresh, good quality bread. So, a game of two halves.

When I met some friends there 2weeks ago went to get a drink the women behind the bar looked right through me & walked away & stared chatting to another bar person & when I when I walked around the bar to try & get a drink she just said yes! I did get my drink in the end but Terrible service!! I Won't be going back.

Torquay suffers from a lack of decent bars. Appleby's has no hand pulled beers. I ordered the Katsu Curry, which consisted of two small pieces of fried chicken, rice, and peas with a sweet sauce: very basic.

Nobody at the bar for 10/15 minutes, then two rude staff members refused my drink order and demanded card payment, so I walked out to spend my money somewhere else.

Great local pub with the views from the terrace, good selection of drinks and a good selection of pub food that more than does

Wonderful Views. Great location

Views are amazing from the terrace this is a must visit for everyone on a visit to Torquay

Although not listed in an Internet search for gluten free eateries I can highly recommend Applebys and their lovely staff. I called in on spec on my way to the seafront and asked if a GF breakfast was available. It certainly was and what a breakfast. GF sausage wasn't available but I was offered an extra piece of bacon. I had so much perfectly cooked and yummy bacon it was coming out of me earroles. Various options for your eggs, I asked for scrambled which again came out perfectly cooked - at least 2. Baked beans (I do love beans on a full English), hash brown, tomato, mushroom all served on an oval plate. Oh, and two pieces of fresh gluten free toast and butter too. Normally I would only eat a third of this amount but it was so delicious I didn't want to waste it even if I was stuffed. Happily stuffed. I plan to pop in tomorrow morning before catching my train back home.

Outstanding been hear for 3 weeks foodvout standing the red head the blond behind bar all so Outstanding and fit just to add will never stay anywhere eles in the area now I found this place

Great bar with amazing views. Staff very friendly and food well presented and tasty

This place has a terrace where you can have your drinks and food al fresco. Great service by the staff, amazing atmosphere and the food looks nice. The view is spectacular

Great atmospher.. good view overlooking the bay.

Went here for brunch with young children and grandparents. Very sunny day, looked like a perfect spot with the terrace over looking the bay. However, quality of food was substandard - pancakes were awful and from a packet (how hard is it to make real pancakes??), orange juice was very much from concentrate, sausages were cheap Richmond equivalents. Music was really loud and inappropriate for the setting and time of day. Coffees took about 40mins and arrived AFTER the food, despite the place being relatively empty. Maybe a lack of staff and/or management that are actually considering the customer experience. Wouldn’t normally leave a review like this but it was so disappointing I felt compelled to.

Appleby's is the name of the restaurant at the Heritage Hotel in Torquay. Good overall service and quality.

This bar was brilliant as I was in Torquay on holiday and I visited everyday as it was very friendly staff and overlooking the sea and a great terraced area to sit in the sun I will miss this bar and would return to Torquay to visit applebys again

Lovely place but took over 20mins for 1 coffee and 1 hot chocolate

We ordered our breakfasts at 09:45 along with our tea and coffee. At the time of ordering there was just us and one other family, as more people came we noticed they were being served before us so after waiting 45 mins hubby went in to check on our order, then the waitress came out and said the chef didn’t get the order and won’t cook until he has it. At this point I really didn’t care what the reason was and we finally got our breakfasts at 10:50, we asked for brown bread and received one white and one brown but by this point I really could not be bothered, and all this time no offers of a hot drink on the house or anything, not a good first time experience, would not like to be there when they are busy

My daughter had a swimming party this morning at the heritage hotel and we went for lunch after at Applebys. All the staff were so lovely and helpful 😊 we all had a great time and the food was great too. Thank you all! 😊

A lovely pub close to our accommodation. Friendly staff and good prices. We ate there and the food was really good plus generous portions and good value

We called in for food and drinks a party of 9, alls I can say is food was awful overpriced and obviously warm ups won't be returning!!!

Stayed here a couple of times clean cosy and welcoming great breakfast

Went in for breakfast, didn't get one!! Till didn't work because no WiFi

Easter Day breakfast for us and our dog. Breakfast could have been a bit warmer as it went cold very soon after being delivered to our table but all was tasty. Thank you for allowing me to swap beans and tomato for a piece of black pudding. Tea was perfect amount allowing 2 cup fulls out of the teapot. Dog enjoyed his sausage too

Great pub and entertainment and brilliant weather be back soon 😀

Great place for breakfast. Reasonably priced and very tasty. Staff are warm and friendly.

Me and hubby popped in for breakfast. Lovely breakfast, helpful staff. Lovely view of the sea so all round nice visit

Breakfast was lovely well worth a visit

Popped in here for a drink with a friend in the evening & found that it was empty. No wonder at £5.20 a pint of beer. We won't be coming back here again!

Drinks very expensive 560 for a pint 300 for half of cider takin the mickey no wonder the place is empty

Had a lovely meal of Scampi and Chips. Very generous portion ! Staff friendly and helpful.

Closed for food, even though the website said open!

Card only, no cash was a surprise

We went there for lunch and unfortunately the kitchen was closed. However, it looked OK and the staff were very friendly.

Modest priced food, easy to get to, handy if staying at the Heritage Hotel

Card only bar!!! Won't be going again.

Very good bar attached to hotel, nice friendly staff.

Good breakfast at a great price, easy parking.

Good pub, great view of the sea front as well. It's a card only bar but coins needed for the pool table, I'm sure they will put 2&2 together soon. Breakfast was really good as part of the hotel package, dinners looked good in the evening and lots of functions

Only delivered to here but the owners where lovely and rooms looked lovely clean and warm great place and location and cheap price

Had a great stay and would definitely go again

First when came through the we met by Stacey from the reception to see we need help which we never been asked if we needed help. We very good welcoming which very nice. When asked Stacey for room with view and she did that .the room is lovely. The Breakfast just right. The lady's that look after the rooms are very professional . The young lady at bar is very professional and helpful . We came for are Golden anerversy which have impressed with Heritage Hotel. In the Hotel there is pool tables. Swimming pool.
