Beefeater Grill Paignton in Torbay

We visited for Easter Sunday lunch with 5 adults and 1 child. Despite advertising "Easter Sunday Lunch" this was just their standard Sunday lunch that happened to be served on Easter Sunday whereas we thought they might have a special menu on given the large ads. Anyway the food itself was very nice. It was just the service that let it down a little. For instance, two of us having Sunday lunch asked for extra sauces and when they came they were left at the opposite end of the table for us to pass along the line. The same with a drinks order. The mains arrived before the starter plates had been cleared, leaving us literally holding plates for them while they sorted the table. They also forgot one of our pudding orders.

Me and partner decided to go for an Easter treat, and we were not disappointed! We were greeted by the Restaurant Manager Daniel at the ‘host stand’ and what a lovely smiley young man he is. Despite it being one of the busiest nights I’ve seen the restaurant he had his team organised and made sure they were all doing everything to the best of their ability. Chloe our waitress and Maddison the young lady who brought out our food were also second to none despite the mountain of pressure they were under. Thank-you again to Daniel and his team for a wonderful evening!

Great service- our waitress Emma was friendly and helpful. Clean and relaxed environment. Lots of parking. Tasty food

Great service by Chloe, she was friendly and attentive. She made our dining experience a nice one. Food was lovely and a good atmospheres

Went for Mother's day lunch, food delicious as always. Despite being so busy staff were still very attentive, very friendly and polite. Chloe was our waitress and she was a delight. Thank you guys, a pleasure as always, see you all very soon

I came today for Mother's Day breakfast. My god the staff was amazing. There was a high number of people and the staff managed very well. Thank you.

Fantastic service, Very welcoming and helpful quick service Served by Emma who was friendly, and helpful - great waitress Food was lovely Service was quick

Never have I experienced a more dreadful meal than this evening. Firstly, the table and chairs were dirty and stained as were the menus. VERY STICKY TO THE TOUCH. Secondly, the Fillet Steak was as tuff as Old boots . Sent it back only to be served with something similar. The whole experience was dreadful. NEVER AGAIN. LACK OF MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP. GO ELSEWHERE!!!

We’ve travelled far and wide around this world, and we have to say Dolcie is the most attentive, happy, knowledgable, reactive/ proactive waitress we have ever had the pleasure of meeting! She definitely deserves 12/ 10!

Lovely meal, food was lovely, great service by Emma - so friendly and welcoming. Atmosphere was great. Great meal out with friends.

We came for a lovely family meal. Dulcie our server was fantastic and made the whole experience a delight. Food was brilliant and prompt. Really attentive and would 100% recommend.

My visit to the Beefeater was made very enjoyable by my server Dulcie, she was very hospitable and attentive to my table and apologetic when we had to wait a bit longer for my husbands food order to come out.

Had a lovely lunch with my partner as a late birthday treat. The meal was great and our waitress Dulcie was particularly polite, jolly and extremely helpful when I had some questions about our meal requirements, she went out of her way to awnser my questions.

We came for a meal with friends who were visiting us. As usual it was very very good Megan the waitress was lovely, very bubbly , friendly and an asset to the restaurant. Many thanx for a fantastic meal and brilliant waitress

Sunday lunch with family food was lovely and arrived in a timely manner. Chloe was our server she was amazing nothing was to much trouble 😃

I get so mad when you see stupid reviews like “shocking experience” I have eaten her a few times when I visit Devon. I have never had a bad meal. The manager was chatting to me after he started there and I already saw such an improvement in service and cleanliness. He was really nice to talk to. It has got better and better. So the bad review said it was the waitresses first day. How can they complain she had no training if it was her first day. How do they train other than in a restaurant with people who are nice and supportive. Not idiots who get stroppy as probably one thing was wrong. The food does not deserve 1 point, the work by the management to improve cleanliness don’t deserve one point and at least the new waitress must have spoken to them for them to know it was her first day. I just hope they are perfect in all they do. Sorry I’m ranting but it just gets me mad when good people in hospitality work so hard and get no thanks. I will be back next visit to see family and I hope you still have the same team and great food

A lovely evening with quality food and service. The thing that made it for us the most was the waitress Dulcie! Very attentive, friendly and efficient, amazing service throughout! Thank you for making it perfect in every way

an amazing place to eat! reasonably priced food and quick service. our waitress madison was very helpful and kind looked after us well.

White rock beefeater is a great place to eat. We were sat at a table swiftly and our food and drink were taken right after, our waitress Maddison looked after us wonderfully and took very good care of us

Went to Beefeater with my children and had a great evening with awesome service from Maddison. The food was great, the atmosphere was pleasant and the service was exceptional.

Great evening and meal. Staff were fantastic! Especially Emma our waitress and Nigel the manager. Credit to Beefeater!

Really great food. Stayed 2 nights. The experience was made so good by Emma who looked after us. Really went out of her way to make it a good experience.

Lovely food, great service, had a very nice lunch for a friends birthday. Chloe serves us and she was lovely the whole time.

Stopped for night at Premier Inn next door. Wife had chicken burger and I had the salmon. Only disappointment was veg extra and not inclusive given cost. Service excellent especially from Emma. Thank you

Me and my family of 3 decided to come for a late Sunday dinner as we had been travelling all day, we were seated by Maddison and were looked after by the Restaurant Manager, Dan. Both Dan and his team couldn’t have done anymore for us, all the meals were cooked to nothing short of perfection. Topped off with amazing and friendly service made the whole experience 10/10. Thankyou again

All I can say is i was very shocked with my whole experience...staying at Premier Inn for the night obviously we used the on sight restaurant beefeater...the hotel was nice and totally let down buy the restaurant.. The management team was more interested in giving people discounts rather than actually sorting out what's caused all the issue....poorly trained staff who we're amazing and trying to do what they could with the knowledge they had....totally not backed up by management and at one point was blamed by there manager for not being up to the job....the waitress was actually on her first day and under went no training I could see and just dropped in the deep end... Personal I've never seen such a shambles in all my life...far to many people seated for meals when you could obviously see they couldn't cope...

Booked a table on Saturday and was seen to by Dan at the door, was really friendly and helpful. We order a couple of mixed grills and some meals off of the kids menu, all the food came out and was really good, thank you...

Party of 7 had a birthday meal, food and service was fabulous. Really enjoyed our night and was looked after superbly. Will be back again soon.

I went to the Beefeater in Paignton with my wife for dinner. We were served by Jenna and found that she was very nice and professional and we had a thoroughly great experience, so much that we are back there tonight. Great food great service...

We dropped in yesterday on our way home to Dartmouth after having our annual eye checks. Pleasant lunch from the lunchtime special menu (2 courses for £11.99) very nice curry by the way. Decentbpintnof ale then on to home. Thank you Charlotte for looking after...

Six of us dined here for Christmas lunch; one family member in a wheelchair. A wheelchair accessible table had been allocated for us and we were immediately offered a Bucks fizz. The drinks orders were taken quickly and almost immediately the starters arrived. The waiting...

Probably the worst dinner that I have eaten in a restaurant, made worse by the fact that it is Christmas Day and you are charging more than £60 per person for inedible food. The Pâté starter was liquid, the roasted turkey was fatty, and the...

Decided on coming here as was looking for lunch on a cold day. Have been several times before and never had any issues so gave it another go. Greeted promptly and ordered drinks which arrived promptly. Friendly staff and was nice and warm in the...

NIGEL was amazing . there was a glitch with our code and He sorted it . The service that he and his staff gave was five out of 5 brilliant. Food was fantastic and well cooked. Great atmosphere. We will be back

Great service and amazing food. Jenna was so lovely. She always makes us feel well looked after and never lets us wait around. I was so impressed with her.

Great place very polite staff went out of there way to accomadate very large wheelchair food was 5*** will return

Went here for a last minute dinner while out shopping nearby . We found the food to be a very low standard . I ordered steak and it was the worst steak I’ve ever had , it was like eating leather . The food was...

Quite a busy sunday lunchtime. Our main waitress was Chloe who was very professional. Husband had a prawn cocktail starter which took about 20mins to arrive. He had not finished this when our main courses arrived. The food (2 roast beefs) were very tasty but...

Came in here the other day with family... Great food.. Plenty on plates.. Good variety on the menu... Would like to visit again in the future...

Visited yesterday around lunchtime and we're seated and served by Maddie. What a refreshing change to have such a plesent well informed server. Maddie, first of all, greeted us with a lovely smile. She then asked if anybody had any Allergies? That was an absolute...

Amazing food, couldn't fault it. Service by Nigel was professional and very accommodating, he reallyadey mums birthday special. will be returning soon

We had a lovely time, the food was okay but I wanted to comment on the excellent service of a young lady called Jenna! She was attentive, polite and very efficient! We often go here and often wait along time for drinks and service! Jenna...

Great meal lovely quality food great value compliments to the head chef Jake and Maddie. Friendly relaxed atmosphere great service sad about free refills not being available on chips !!

I found the service was lacking in communication. Responsive. Service. I ordered my main meal at the same time I ordered the desert. The main meal was ok but not the best for the price you would expect more value for money. And I had...

We are used to dining at Beefeaters but here the tables were well spaced out and the menus weren't sticky. We didn't appreciate the excessive drinking and resultant behaviour at an adjacent table but that was more than compensated for by the friendliness, helpfulness and...

We visited this Beefeater whilst staying in Brixham, we have been before & found it god. Service & food were good this time & staff really attentive. Plenty of car parking spaces. fd is reasonably priced same as other Beefeaters, steak was cooked as ordered...

The meal was cooked to perfection and the staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. I recommend this restaurant and if you have the same experience as I did you will be well pleased.

The service was superb we had a lovely young lady Called Maddison, nothing was to much trouble the service was as good as I’ve ever had from this bubbly person. The food I ate was of very good quality well cooked and well presented. I...

Fair play, we had not booked and there were 10 of us (really frustrating for waiting staff even more so for the kitchen..). This place was very accommodating. We were shown to a table by our waitress Maddison. There were 2 people with coeliac disease...

We were staying at the Premier Inn next door and came firstly for dinner. It was chaotic with lots of tables needing cleared. The service was slow and we felt it wasn't the cleanest. Usual good choice of food to choose from and it was...

Lovely breakfast, always being freshly restocked. Clean tables and helpful staff, especially Megan who was always very helpful when I had questions and was sure to let us know when fresh food was on the way. She works very hard that's clear.

Lovely meal special shout out to Maddie happy smiley welcoming and really looked after us thank u food was ok could of been hotter but all in all a pleasant experience

Food was fine but service from Beth any-Lynn really made the evening. All staff were friendly and eager to help.

A thoroughly enjoyable evening ! Food was excellent and steak cooked to perfection. The environment and staff were very welcoming and Hannah the waitress exceeded our expectations of eating here. She was attentive, had a lovely personality and nothing too much trouble for her -...

The front of house staff were welcoming and courteous, especially Chloe who was diligent and attentive. The food was great, so hats off to the chefs here - they did brilliantly! The steak was perfect and our vegan relation said the burger was very tasty....

An excellent meal with superb service from Hannah. The menu is varied with something for everyone. A really friendly place I would highly recommend

We came as a family of 4 and had a lovely waitress Hannah! Super friendly and fab service. Food was great, came out hot and in good time.

We always find ourselves at a beefeater and then always wonder why. However service was very good at this one, the food served in a reasonable time but tasted very average (apart from the lasagne, horrible) I do however love the signature chicken wings! Convenience...

Just had a simple dinner but the food was good and the service really good. Decent prices. Would recommend. You might need to book.

We booked here after a busy day at the zoo with 2 hungry children. Within minutes of sitting down, Hannah had taken our order because I mentioned they needed some food quickly. The service was great and the food was tasty. Would definitely recommend to...

Went for a date night with my partner near to our house, so we could both have a drink and walk home! Easy to book a table and the service was fantastic! Our server Hannah was so lovely and very attentive. She gave us time...

Great Beefeater (the one near our home area is awful, so we were sceptical, but having read positive reviews, we gave it a go). We had dinner one night and breakfast a couple of days later. Clean restaurant, friendly staff, good pub grub at reasonable...

We ordered off the set price menu and when the mains came out it was so small. I had the smothered chicken and it was a tiny piece of chicken and no bacon and see through cheese. The 1 server was great but covering the...

I would like to say that the lady called Sherrie that was waiting the tables was absolutely brilliant and the food was great, just a shame that the rest of the staff left all the work to Sherrie

The food was lovely, the attitude of staff and service weren't good. I almost had to catch my starter as it was shoved in front of me at such force, by a grumpy looking waitress. Then the child of our group had to keep asking...

We decided to cross the river from Dartmouth and come here to celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary. We've not been here before but are so glad we decided to. We both had Sunday Roast, the Lamb Rump which was superb mine just right a little...

The staff were really friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is nice and open and even though it was busy, it didn't feel crowded. We had both wanted to order the lovely Beefeater burgers but they didn't have any burgers (which is why I've knocked a...

An amazing evening meal for 4 adults and 2 children! Our server Teigan was amazing, our food and drinks arrived promptly and everything was deliscious! Steaks were cooked amazingly, menu choice was phenomenal and a great atmosphere. Can't wait to return.

Sadly this was our thought last night. Last night of our holiday too! How disappointed we were. Our starters were not brought to us. We found this out by our mains being delivered to us. When informing the female server of the problem there was...

Get there before 10.30. They pack it all away and there's no room for manoeuvre, so if you want a leisurely breakfast, don't bother.

The place was spotless and and had good signage to inform you where to wait to be seated, the staff although they were very busy, they were very attentive and helpful. There was Nigel and I am sorry but a lady whose name starts with...

We were made really welcome and our waitress, Skye, was fantastic - nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for making it a great evening 😃

Had a great meal! Fast and effective service as always. Food was great every night! Even with a full restaurant we felt really well looked after especially by Skye! She was very attentive and even in a very busy environment she never missed one thing....

I can't recommend this place highly enough. We arrived after a long and tiring journey down from the north and the welcome we got really lifted our spirits. Every member of staff that helped us was friendly and polite despite the restaurant being very busy...

I just wanted to say thank you to all staff but especially to Chloe for such great service not just today but also the last time we were there with all the grandchildren. Nothing is too much, she is so thoughtful always offering the little...

Food is as you would expect. Service friendly and reasonably quick. However, I don't know about you, but I don't like sitting on stained chairs. So many were stained. I can see how this happens and how hard it is to clean them, but it's...

Had a Lovely Evening out on Saturday 27th May, had Potato dippers to start, which were Excellent, then I had the Haddock and chips for main, and my friend had the Steak, again both meals were Excellent, we were served by Dulcie, who was Amazing...

My first time being out alone. I picked the best place. The staff are so friendly and thoughtful. They helped me with being alone and made me feel very welcome. The staff had to put up with rude people who think they are better then...

I took my mum here for breakfast because we were starving and I remember they do a “all you can eat“ option. I just don’t understand how you can have this good quality of food for £9.99 and eat as much as you want, when...

We are regulars here. Friendly staff with great service. Nothing too much trouble for them. Jason is really welcoming and helpful. Reasonably priced tasty food.

Greeted with a smile very polite and helpful staff. Lovely atmosphere very friendly and relaxed place to go. Lad at the bar ( Jason ) I think was brilliant very helpful with drinks and recommended some bits off the menu to eat in n the...

Came in with some friends yesterday for a roast was served by the lovely dulcie, nothing was too much trouble, especially with my allergies. Will be returning, hope to see dulcie again☺️

Brilliant service, AMAZING food( would defo recommend the lasagna) . The staff are friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back😁

We would like to thank Jenna for her excellent service in the restaurant. She was attentive, and had excellent communication skills When we asked for a slight alteration, to the menu, she reacted positively and sorted it out. Normally we have experienced in other restaurants...

I was served by Katrina, she pours a lovely pint and always provides great friendly service. The food is good and the service is fast but not rushed, I will definitely visit again.

5 star, Katrina is lovely and pulls a great pint. Good fast service and the food is really good and reasonably priced. Will certainly visit again.

Great food. Really good service as usual! I visit this place every week or so when visiting my parent an and I’m never let down by the quality of the place. I would recommend to all!

Great service, always polite and helpful, food and drinks are always great quality. Don’t have any complaints.

First of all our server Maddison was amazing! She was so lovely and kind and the food was great 10/10 what made it the best experience ever was the fact that Maddison really made our day throughout the time spent was laughs and giggles and...

Well where to start! A really disappointing visit. Booked a table as there were 8 of us and we squashed on to a table for 7. Ordered drinks and one order was a bitter shandy, the waitress didn't know what bitter was available and kept...

There was 8 people and we were seated at a table for 7. The waitress had no idea what a bitter shandy was and constantly called us guys. Women were present. The food took 50 minutes to arrive kn relays. When she did eventually ask...

Will not visit again. The service was poor and the food was worse. The steaks were tough and grisly the drinks order was wrong and the food order incorrect. The waiting staff did not have a clue.
