Billy Can in South Hams

What a beautiful place in a lovely setting h . The quality of food was excellent, the bakewell slice the best I have ever had. Coffee really good too and the staff lovely.

Best cafe, Best Tea, Best Coffee, Best cakes, Best Pasties......but above all, the Best lovely owners and staff.....great decor, gifts, the Best eggs for sale...just go there and see for yourself you won't be disappointed (though sometimes they run out of Pasties, then you might be!) Visit several times a month as its just sooo lovely there, we do.

We didn't actually eat here. But it's small and cosy, the food looked wholesome. We bought cakes here to takeaway which were quite expensive but delicious. There's a very small shop next door selling crafts and with chairs and tables for kids to do activities (I think?). It overlooks Slapton Nature Reserve with steps up. Quite dark inside.

We loved this cafe. Very friendly people and good food. We enjoyed sitting inside looking out of the open doors. Outside seating by the road as this cafe in not on the seaward side of Torcross. Very clean toilet facilities. On site old fashioned sweet shop and a gift selection. Big car park with WC next to the WW2 tank recovered from the sea, only a few minutes flat walk away. Visit if you are in the area you won’t be disappointed!

I found this place so expensive I literally had a few things and it came up to so much.It's because there isn't much around that they can do it but I still don't think it's right.

Loved this cafe. Although it's been there for about three years, and it's a place that I visit frequently, this is the first time that I was aware of its existence. The entrance is not on the sea front but almost opposite the Sherman tank facing Slapton Ley. Very friendly and accommodating staff and very good, very reasonably priced food. There was a considerable choice of foods, from the mashed avocado and soda bread type to good old fashioned English brekkie, a really good choice and much cheaper than the nearby Blackpool Sands. The bacon baps were a real treat and very reasonably priced. Loved this cafe and it was all the more pleasant because of the lovely staff. All four of us really appreciated it and will certainly pop in next time I'm at Torcross.

A very warm welcome and a welcome break from a very dismal and wet Saturday afternoon. Lovely ambience and super-cheerful service. Tea and coffee were great - but the cakes (all made on the premises) - wow!! Mind you our rolls/sandwich were excellent too. Many thanks to you all for a very pleasant interlude, and we will definitely be back.

Lovely shop with eating area. Had a coffee and a hot sausage roll, which was absolutely delicious !! Also bought a selection of nice sweets for our grandson. Will definitely return againe next year.

Great coffee, delicious pasties and the best home made sausage rolls we’ve ever had. Local crafts and pictures are also sold here and there is an amazing, well stocked, retro sweet shop too. Excellent, friendly service.

We dropped in by chance and were immediately welcomed by a very friendly lady. The coffees were piping hot. We don't usually eat cakes but they all looked so lovely we had the carrot cake, it was superb. It seems their cakes are made on the premises. I recommend a visit.

What a brilliant USP this place has, friendly staff, good but limited menu. Definitely worth a visit if in Torcross.

We came upon Billy Can whilst walking along Slapton Sands. What a great find. Delicious homemade quiche, and steak pasty. Friendly staff. Would highly recommend a visit. A plus is the sweet shop attached to the building. Win win all round🤗

We had lovely hot drinks of tea & cappuccino. A bakewell slice added to the enjoyment. Lovely, friendly atmosphere.

Four of us just treated ourselves to cream teas & cake from The Billy Can, & can honestly say we have never had scones/cake like these before. The scones were large, light & fluffy with the most gorgeous strawberry jam. The bakewell was made to perfection. We were lucky enough to meet the lovely Wendy who bakes everything on site. All the staff here were so friendly. If you are in the area, please give them a visit, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed 🤩

A lovely experience! Great service from friendly staff, and a nice atmosphere. We had a delicious cream tea in pleasant surroundings - you can tell a lot of effort has gone into the decor and ambience. The retro sweet shop was the icing on the cake.

Stopped off here on my way home, the food is great and the service is second to none. You should definitely try the waffles 😋 The staff are amazing to, light hearted and so friendly, we'll definitely be coming back soon

We have had the best cooked breakfast ever. Locally sourced food, double yolk eggs, friendly atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. It was even recommended to us by one of there competitors down the road.

Try the freshly baked blueberry scones with clotted cream or butter, a triumph thank you Billy Can never disappoints

Nice cafe in wonderful location. Staff really friendly. Coffees nice and cakes are amazing. Great place to come after a walk on the beach.

been several times and back today. All homemade, and yes you can tell the difference from packet food, and not a microwave in sight which make this so much fresher.

Great little place right by the sea and opposite the lake filled with ducks and swans. Had a superb halloumi and sun dried tomatoes bagel and really good coffee. Super friendly staff. Loved the olde sweet shop selection and bagged duck food (great fun feeding...

We love the Billy Can. Very friendly service and superb cakes, taste as good as they look. All served with a lovely hot cuppa. They do light lunches too. There is a really nice gift shop attached with a variety of crafts by local artists....

Visited Billy Can for lunch, didn’t need book. Extremely friendly staff, and wonderful homemade food and scone, at good value for money! Cute gift shop, with lots of traditional sweets. Only 30seconds walk from the car park at Slapton Sands Beach. Would 100% recommend!

A nice-looking little cafe with a sign outside advertising pasties. We were there at lunchtime but were advised the pasties were still cooking and would be another 20 minutes. Seems lunchtime had caught them by surprise 😃

Lovely bacon sandwich and home made sausage roll. Clean with friendly service. Welcome shelter from the rain

What a find, the lovely people who run the Billy Can were charming, helpful and served up great coffee and superb flavoursome Cornish pasties (in Devon I know!!!)

Whilst on holiday we visited twice. Such fantastic coffee and cream scones and cakes. Lovely little place so much charm. The lady owner was very friendly and helpful. COVID friendly. All tables wiped, track & trace details taken. Tables at least 2 metres apart. Very...

We stumbled across the Billy Can on a rainy Monday morning in October before a walk around Slapton Sands, memorial and Ley. Upon chatting to the friendly husband and wife team we discovered this small cafe, gift and sweet shop only opened a few months...

Lovely people and place, great coffee and cake made on site. Will be visiting again without hesitation. Take a while to look at the crafts in the next room which are locally made too. Highly recommended.

An excellent friendly stop for morning coffee! The bacon rolls were fresh and generous and the coffee delicious.

Having walked the length of Slapton Sands in the rain needed a coffee to revive us and stumbled on the Billy Can by chance. After a short wait for a table decided to supplement the coffees with bacon sandwiches. Good coffee and the granary bread...

Very friendly staff. Views over Slapton Ley and the wildlife. Hot tea/coffee and cake(s). Lovely cream teas and scrumptious brownies. Overheard a lady saying that she's lived in Devon for 30 years and it's the best cream tea that she'd had, so that can't be...
