Brewers Fayre Inn On The Quay in Torbay

The bar service, where you also order food, can be pretty slow. The menu is pretty average and so is the food. The location is great for a walk along the front before or after eating but otherwise not somewhere you would rush back to. The drinks menu isn't a bad price with some offers on (bottle of prosecco is £13.99 on a friday). Restaurant is a little tired looking. We only use this restaurant for breakfast normally whilst at the premier inn because of the slow evening service

Very bad service food over cook ordered started only just finished and main course put in front had two women waiting and didn’t even see if food ok

Sunday stupendous Carvery, Moses as always a fantastic carvery chef. With Christmas coming up (oh no) the staff were dressed festively. A massive shout out to Hayley who had a full Mrs. Claus outfit on, top to bottom, who looked like the Belle of the Ball. Hayley actually bought the outfit herself and looked fantastic, give this lady a raise and a bonus reward for her initiative and effort Management and Cameron the Manager at Inn on the Quay.

A great meal . We eat there regularly and ALWAYS well pleased with quality of food. Goid child menu. Service from Louise was excellent. What a hard worker! Two meals for less than £12 can't be beat. Great portions and very quick service. Steaks perfectly cooked. Good disabled parking and access. Free parking with tickets from the bar.

Service and food was lovely, thank you for enjoyable evening. Definitely would come again and parking free, with beautiful views of sea what more do you want 😀

Went for what we thought would be a nice meal in a nice setting to celebrate a birthday whilst on holiday , how wrong can you be???.The properties wi go was playing up from the start along with its internet,meaning getting the “Blue Light” site was very difficult. Meal was one of the worst we have ever had only matched by the equally Abysmal service, food just matched everything about the place that nobody could be bothered and just slop it on a plate VW.Although dessert had to be ordered at same time as starter and mains we were left waiting that long after the mains were cleared we had to call for the manager,after already asking a waitresses.The manager was deeply apologetic and refunded the cost of the desserts,if I were him I would be embarrassed by the standards of that restaurant.A birthday totally ruined and we will never visit BrewersFayre again.

Came in for a few drinks and some food. Yummy pizza and chicken goujons. Friendly staff and quick service. Lovely to sit by the sea for a nightcap.

Wonderful meal. Very friendly and helpful staff. Yummy food and perfect atmosphere. Right next to the beach. Could not ask for more. Thankyou to all the staff x

Got to give credit where it’s due, we stopped in for an impromptu carvery and was not disappointed! £11.99 for an adults carvery - cheapest I’ve seen for a very long time. Food was immense, meats were well cooked and flavourful, banging crispy roasties, all the veg you could want and then cauliflower cheese and potato dauphinois!!! Shout out to the meat carver chap, super friendly and engaging - as were all staff we encountered! Easily worthy of 5stars and we look forward to coming back!

Amazing food last Sunday18th August great food and service by Moses top chef that bloke absolutely loved it highly recommend to anyone.

Not very dog friendly as you have to sit outside (don't have a problem with that as weather was dry) but you have to order from the "garden" menu vastly reduced choice, all lunchtime offers not available.

After an earlier visit to Goodrington sands a few days prior, we decided to have our evening meal at this large Brewers farye pub, on the beach front. Getting there before 18.00hrs allowed us to choose from the specials menu, and after ordering the meal turned up in good time. Even though it was on offer the portion was of a good size and presented well. We went for the smoothed chicken and katsu curry and felt comfortably full on complatoon. There is a car park attached to the inn and if used you will require a qr code from the staff on leaving to register for the free parking, easily done at the external kiosk.

Oh my goodness. I know there is always a lower level of expectation at an unlimited breakfast, but it didn’t even reach that! We had our dog with us, so again I understand the dining experience isn’t going to be top notch. HOWEVER, we looked at the outside eating area and there was cigarette ends and empty sachets everywhere, non of the tables had been wiped from the day before and there were tablets on the floor. Had to clean up the floor before I could let my dog in. Food was lower than average, food left out on the side was stale. Entrance to the pub reeked of urine from the toilets. Staff again, a little rude and unwelcoming. To say it’s a similar price to a normal dine in breakfast it was a little disappointing from start to finish.

Went for a roast. Well greeted by Moses. Happy smiley welcome. Food was great value and it certainly was the best roast on the coast. Will be recommending to friends and family.

Went here yesterday (24/06/2024) for dinner with my family. I order sirloin steak, chips, peas and onion rings. My steak was dripping in fat, my peas were swimming abd my chips and onion rings were well overcooked. My husband did complain and was told that our complaint would be passed onto the chef and that was the end of that. Customer service was poor. The toilets were absolutely disgusting. You smelt them before you saw them. Would not recomend eating here at all.

Decent pub grub (chicken burger and mac & cheese balls) in the beer garden, unlimited coffee refills and also dog friendly too! Quite busy with lots queuing for the Sunday carvery.

During our week stay at the adjoined Premier Inn we had breakfast here. There was an absolutely fantastic selection of food and the staff (a woman with blonde, shoulder length hair in particular) were so nice and friendly! Highly recommend!

First time at this Brewers Fayre and very impressed, first class service from Aleasha and Lilly. Very busy as Bank Holiday Saturday but lots of people were served and fed in good time and the staff compared to other Brewers Fayres we visit regularly were efficient and although 7 people in front of us to order food and drinks at the bar we only waited 6/7 minutes Mains were all good, well presented, hot and full of flavour and even the fussy grandchildren had clean plated. After waiting a few minutes for our desserts we mentioned to the lovely female manager we were ready for our deserts at table 7 and they soon followed again all 6 were different but first class and we requested slight changes to a couple and that was done perfectly. Highly recommend and when you go a few times they start sending you decent vouchers for discounts which are very welcome when there are 6 of us

We were welcomed by a lovely lady called aliesha, we were happy with the wait times and food came very quickly, we saw aliesha deal with a difficult customer very professionally. Our whole experience from bar staff, manager and the host was amazing. We had a great experience and will happily continue coming

We are at arrived 22nd March around 5pm and the place was not busy . On arrival after a wait were met by a lady who didn't even make eye contact. She seemed to be put out by our presence despite us having a table reserved .we orded food at the bar with no queue from the same lady who was monosyllabic in saying no when we asked for food items off the menu the food was decent and came quickly with a different lady who was much friendlier.. unfortunately the first lady has not done the the establishment any favours and we we will definitely rethink any future visit.

Very hit and miss We have eaten here a number of times recently but there have been some issues Firstly, ensure you get your car parking slip from the staff when you order, it’s not worth the fine! On two different occasions we had to send food back as it was cold, not lukewarm, it tasted literally uncooked. The queuing system is terrible, at most only 2 people are serving drinks and food which makes for a long wait. The last occasion we visited it seemed like they had delivery issues as lots of food and drinks that were out of stock which was very disappointing. Can’t fault the staff, they were helpful and apologetic. The issues are clearly not their fault. They were clearly overworked and under appreciated

Busy and bar under staffed. Long queues for food and drinks. Ordered a starter to "test the waters" and a beer. Beer nice, had to leave the food. Ordered a Cheese-Topped Potato Dippers. Potato dippers are rebranded oven chips. No sign of mozzarella and if you like curdled sour cream this is for you. Bar was so busy i couldn't be bothered to claim my £5 back. Sad times.

What a nightmare, queues massive, one serving drinks, one serving carvery. Managed to get a pint of flat beer and a coffee cup for nearly £9 after queuing at least 15 minutes. Both coffee machines ran out of coffee and with only two staff no one knew where the coffee beans were, so went home.

Fab Carvery, we eat here a lot. I always book a table and so far our requests have always been accommodated and every time we are asked if there are any allergy requirements. The Hostess is friendly! The carvery is always hot and a choice of 3 meats, the Chef Moses is an absolute Legend, warm and welcoming to everyone, he's also an excellent chef. Lots of choice of veg, tasty gravy, roast potatoes and huge yorkie puds, great value at £11.49. We had re-fillable coke's which is great as you can re-fill as many times as you like along with other drinks like Fanta etc. I told the Barman the ice wasn't working and he apologised and immediately offered me some from behind the bar. Free parking for 3 hrs too and amazing location right next to the beach. Highly recommended we'll see you again soon! - Michele & Barry Earp.

We had family visiting us over the Easter bank holiday weekend, so of course that means a couple of visits to our favourite Brewers Fayre. We visited as a family of 6 (5 adults & 1 teenager) & as always greeted with a friendly smile & shown to our table. On the Thursday evening before Good Friday between us we enjoyed the smothered chicken, gammon, fish & chips, chicken goujons, a smothered platter & a pasta dish. Food arrived quickly & as usual was excellent. We booked again for Easter Sunday, the carvery chef Moses is a joy to speak with. Choice of beef, gammon or turkey, then help yourself to Yorkshire puddings, parsnips, roast potatoes & mash etc. We all really enjoyed the carvery, the family members who had never met Moses before commented on how it was a pleasure to speak with someone who clearly enjoyed what they did. We have eaten here dozens of times & the entire team are always friendly & helpful, one of the many reasons we keep coming back.

We have been here weekly for the past 2 years & have noticed a deterioration in both food & drinks. Firstly Doom Bar ale has been transferred to the cooled cellar & is served too cold, which kills all its flavour. On our last 2 visits the other cask ale - Tribute, was either unavailable or cloudy. We usually chose from the ‘2 meal offer’ menu & we’ve noticed that recently that the portion of chips has been almost halved! Also the offer to upgrade the Fish & Chips is no longer available. The staff are friendly & helpful & the location is fabulous, but sadly as the food & drinks quality have plummeted, unless things improve, we’ll be forced to go elsewhere. 😢

Absolute disaster. We arrived at booked time of 10am to find no mugs for drinks,pastries,staff serving on counter, fresh eggs, milk in coffee machine or anybody apparently in charge. Staff were utterly swamped but this did not excuse their offhand & rude responses to enquiries. So far, complaint to customer service has got no response after 5 days. We spent over £50 and got no enjoyment. Food here has never been very good but this was the last straw - go somewhere else!

Not a good experience and quite concerning. Numerous tables covered with uncleared plates of leftover food. The place was absolutely disgusting. This is a health hazard and this place needs an urgent visit from food hygiene agency. Extremely hard to find any staff.

Great location, great food Moses was amazing funny and chatty seemed like he actually cared. Drinks were great too love pink gin

Omg don’t waste your money!! We went for all you can eat breakfast but it’s not good!! We was staying in a campsite up the road and was recommended this by a local and it’s was the worst thing I have ever put in my stomach!? It was cold, dry and just disgusting!! NOT COMING BACK

4 of of us came in for Sunday lunch, all of which was very tasty. Hayley was excellent, very friendly and helpful, especially with some allergy requirements. Thank you again😊

Hayley was lovely! Very professional and very smiley and looked after us well and other guest!f food came out hot and quick ordered desserts and came out quick!

Was welcomed by Lisa who was warm and welcoming with very quick service with a smile she couldn't do enough :) food is pretty good here too :) we will be back

We stayed at the premier inn so decided to have breakfast here and it was the best premier inn breakfast I've ever experienced. The food was always hot and fresh and the lady on breakfast each morning was fabulous. She was so friendly and always happy (sorry I don't remember her name but she was there every morning)

Absolutely love this place. The food is always spot on, credit to the chefs. Bar staff are so polite and pleasant. Kiki is always so bubbly, full of smiles and makes us feel so welcome ☺️ Also the sea views are amazing!

Amazing customer service from kiki always happy to come here , foods good, prices are good 😀 also one of the best carvery

Such an amazing and delicious Sunday carvery! Food was absolutely amazing however we received some OUTSTANDING customer service from a young lady of the name of Kiki. She was very friendly, polite and welcoming. Always had a smile and happy to help. Couldn’t recommend enough you really made are Sunday Dinner! Thank you to Kiki for going above and beyond!

Fantastic evening with my friend with superb service from the bar staff and especially Kiki 100% recommend for any occasion

The service was great, especially by Kiki, who greeted us, and created a great atmosphere whilst waiting to order drinks

Amazing food, good prices nice location with fairly cheap beer woudnt go anywhere else in the bay and Kiki at the bar is fantastic couldn't recommend enough!

Had a lovely Sunday carvery here with the family. The food was delicious and stunningly presented on the carvery deck! Moses was incredibly friendly and polite, as were all the staff. We will definitely be returning.

We visited goodrington Brewers Fayre (Inn on the ) today for their very popular Sunday lunch.We were greeted and after sanitising our hands and using the NHS app to check in, we were very promptly shown to our table.Our table was spacious and clean and a safe distance from other tables.James was our waiter throughout our meal and was very patient, polite and helpful. He showed excellent interpersonal skills, interacting very well will both the young and older members of our family. Nothing was too much trouble, and there was lots of requests from different sauces, extra dishes, gravy and roasters to many refills of our drinks. The roast was, as always a good size cooked to a high standard and served nice and hot. There was a choice of beef, gammon or turkey which you could mix if you chose, upgrading for an extra £1 for a larger plate (all adults did this in our group)..... Absolute bargain! Everyone left full and very happy See you next Sunday!

Had dinner here the other day was lovely was served by a very police worker called billy couldnt do enough for us very proffesional good to see.

It was absolutely lovely to finally able to get out after a year, an it was made extra special by inn on the quay. Brilliant food and great service by Chloe, such a great part of the team and such a positive person. Looking forward to the next visit. Thank you

First time out since last year. We had a fantastic evening meal with this lovely pub ,fantastic views and staff outstanding. Can we just give a BIG thank you to Chloe who was absolutely lovely and took great care of us. Thank you ☺️

First time having Breakfast at Brewers fayre and be definitely be going again .Food not over cooked or undercooked Price just right .And Lisa made you feel so welcome was the perfect Hostess .Would strongly Recommend

Great service provided by Nigel. Food was perfect, just as expected. Not too many people and covid measures were taken seriously.

Had a lovely meal out here with my family. Just what we needed after all these months of lockdown! The food was great and the staff were incredibly friendly and professional. I look forward to returning soon.

Lovely Friday evening drinks and nibbles served by the smiley and friendly Bex! I recommend the goujons! Thank you!

Had the Premier Inn meal deal. Although weather not the best, the staff here were great, all so helpful and pleasant despite the weather. Food was good too, better than I expected from a chain pub.

Lovely place to eat/ drink, Bradley the Mayer (I assume) took great care in ensuring all his staff were spread out to appropriate areas where required. Billy who served us did his upmost beast to ensure we were kept topped up with food and drink or anything else we required, a very well ran establishment considering the current pandemic situation (outdoor seating only)

Beautiful sunshine and despite gale force winds we all greatly enjoyed our beer battered fish with chips and peas, so lovely to have a pub lunch at last. We were served by Aliesha who was very friendly and helpful and the whole experience was very enjoyable.

Great visit with the family for lunch today. Sun, Sea and great service from Alan and the team. Will be back again soon.

So lovely to be able to visit our regular again. Alan and the staff were all friendly and provided a great service. Obviously because of Covid rules we sat outside and had table service which worked well. Our dog was well looked after, Kirsty was very kind and brought water for him.Thanks guys for all making us feel welcome again!

If you hadn't prebooked, they ignore you for about an hour. Nothing more to say. How does one find 100 characters to say more?

We haven't lived in Goodrington very long, and have now visited this restaurant three times. Each time we have been impressed by the friendly staff, the tasty food and excellent value for money.The Quay Inn is clean and comfortable and feels most Vivid safe.Last night we were served by Brad and Jack both of whom like all the other staff we've met we're curtious, efficient and helpful. Very happy to recommend Brewers fayre, Inn on the Quay Goodrington.Thank you all.

It made a lovely change to be able to go out and do something different so a meal at the Inn on the Quay seemed a good idea as it is a regular of ours and my family over the years. Jenna our waitress was lovely and very polite, the food great so overall we enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back before Christmas.

What a lovely evening we had, great tasting food, fabulous service from Billy. Everyone was lovely, even with the news on having to shut again for a second lockdown the staff were bubbly and happy. So nice to be somewhere that can cook a blue steak!!!
