Finley Brown's Cafe in Teignbridge

What a lovely place, been there twice once for breakfast and again for lunch. Super friendly with our dog, treats and cudles. Both times food was lovley. The young lady that served us, did not catch her name, was so nice and friendly made us wont to come again, but have got to go home. Will be back in march so will definitely use again.

This place is literally a gem of a find! We dropped in just to get a cup of hot chocolate or tea, and we'd seen on Google that it was dog friendly. I genuinely could not fault this cafe at all. We were greeted so warmly. I checked about our dog as she is a large breed Bernese Mountain Dog which some people can be funny about, but they were so welcoming and friendly and loved her. The younger waitress was so friendly and chatty. We decided to order food. Prices were reasonable. We asked for a few adaptations for food and they could not do enough for us. They even offered to bring a sausage or ham out for our dog, which we thought was a wonderful touch. We ordered 2 chilli con carnes and one fish and chips. When the food came, it was piping hot, fresh, generous portions and was amazingly presented. The bread roll was warm inside, with real butter, tasted amazing. The chilli was well seasoned and flavourful and my friend said his fish and chips was the best he'd had in a long time (which is a real compliment considering he orders it regularly at most pubs and bars). Their selection of cakes on the counter looked incredible. If you ever get a chance to go to this cafe, take it up. The owners obviously care about customers and their experience, and that can be seen from the moment you walk in, to the moment you walk out. Truly a 5 star establishment.

The cafe was busy when we arrived for a late lunch. There was a very warm welcome, efficient staff took our order quickly and then double checked they had it right. Food arrived quickly and freshly cooked, piping hot and delicious. An excellent cafe highly recommended.

Lovely place / Friendly staff . Food presentation is amazing and tastes great too . Little quirky place in the high street

Following the reviews we thought we would givebot a go and what a lovely cafe with great food. Would recommend if you are in Town!

Great cocktails, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Back for second year running as enjoyed it so much last time. Oh and great Beatles soundtrack!

Awesome place. Did try other places but menus were sold out of what we wanted. Saw this place earlier so decided to try it. So glad we did. The food was lovely (we had the crab & prawn salad). The staff were very friendly too. We’ll be back next time we’re in Teignmouth

Sat outside, sun was shining. Had an amazing memorable time with family whilst on holiday. Setting, staff, food and drinks fabulous 👌 I'm gluten free and struggle to find somewhere to eat that you feel normal. Had a piece of caramel cake. Wow! So good wouldn't of know gluten free. Topped off with a cappuccino. Grandson had chicken strips and bq sauce, presented beautiful. The most amazing chocolate milkshake, a work of art! Son had tuna sandwiches and a coke. Not the cheapest of places, but so so worth it! Very busy whilst we was there, but not kept waiting, service and food spot on!

Our last day on holiday,and we came across this cafe whilst wandering about,rather hungry,so nipped in as my eye caught the specials board,crab and prawn salad!! The cafe was quaint and cosy,nicely decorated,lovely staff and service..i had the fresh crab and prawn salad with gluten free bread instead of the fries,it was the tastiest seafood and gf bread ive ever eaten out!!..my hubby had the megga breakfast,both of us very impressed and very satisfied and full!!well worth it,such a treat!!

Me and some work colleagues occasionally meet in Teignmouth for a cooked breakfast; on our July visit our usual cafe was closed so we decided to book into this cafe instead. On arrival the staff were friendly and explained they would come to our table to take the order. The cafe was clean, so was the bathroom. I ordered the mega breakfast, I asked to swap the tomato for another egg but was advised I could only swap it for extra baked beans or mushrooms. My breakfast was ok... The eggs and bacon were good, I liked the presentation of the baked beans in the little sauce pan. However, I thought the sausages were of poor quality. The mushrooms had been cooked in what i could only describe as a slight spice, which I didn't enjoy. I couldn't help but feel that the cost was expensive for the quality of the breakfast, although the quantity was reasonable. My colleagues felt our breakfasts were average. I do feel bad writing this review as I understand the pressures that small businesses are under, but to be honest I have had better breakfasts in Teignmouth. This is of course my opinion, the cafe was very busy during our visit so clearly many have a different opinion.

Stumbled across this little place in the pouring rain, and was the best find. Lovely welcome by the friendly staff, ordered the large bap with bacon and egg and can honestly say it was the best breakfast we'd had in a long time. Bacon and egg were done to perfection and lovely and hot, coffee was great too. Overall we couldnt fault it. Well worth a visit.

The cafe is advertised as being open from 9am on a Sunday. We waited and waited and eventually they opened at 10am. I asked the guy about this and he just said "oh yes, I keep meaning to get that changed"! He then got part of our order wrong, though we were very clear. The food is good and the people are lovely, but if you run a business you just have to get the basics right!

This was my 4th time visiting for Friday night Tapas and cocktails and I swear it’s better every time. Great selection of beautifully presented delicious tapas, really generous portions too. The cocktails are “proper” cocktails, not cocktail flavoured syrups like in many places. All of this is enhanced by great staff in a lovely environment. Honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. Definitely 5-star

Had a cracking visit to Finley Browns last night. We were attending the Elton John tribute near by and wanted something to eat before hand. Tapas and cocktails were the prefect way to get us in the mood. The candles made everything lovely and the staff looked after us, and made us laugh. Definitely be doing that again, top marks

Visited a few weeks ago due to the TripAdvisor reviews and photos of the cakes. When we arrived, we struggled to get our pram through the entrance as one of the doors was locked - we're used to navigating the buggy around in these situations, but were surprised when we got into the cafe that it was empty and the staff were sat at one end, with noone offering to help unlock the other door. This hasn't affected my rating, but worth noting the service that day, as we saw another table walk out quite quickly after entering due to the lack of assistance. Ahead of the visit I'd struggled to find a menu online, so looked at photos from other reviews. Unfortunately, the menu differed to this when we got there (was smaller, with the items we had hoped for not being available). The lunch we ended up having was nice though and the milkshake I had was very good. However, we were left further disappointed by the cakes that were on offer - it looked like there were just a few leftover cakes from the weekend. Not sure if our experience was due to it being out of season, but whilst the food we had was good, it was overall a disappointing experience and we wouldn't have visited had we seen the menu/cakes on offer ahead of sitting down.

Lovely cafe. From calling before hand to arriving, service and eating, a pleasure! Just wanted a nice all day brekkie in cosy surroundings on a horribly wet Sunday morning, and certainly couldn’t have asked for more. Breakfast was way better than I could’ve anticipated, delicious, filling and hot, all beautifully cooked. My husband loved his black pudding particularly. Coffee was just spot on. They do gluten free and dairy free food and drinks. Rob is an absolute treasure and our waitress was really lovely too (sorry I didn’t get her name 🙄) Lovely to have a dog friendly space and we shall be bringing to pooch and teenager next time! He ate the little doggy bag we took home and is now gutted he didn’t come with us 😂 Would recommend to all my friends and family. Will definitely be returning. Thank you guys ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Really lovely gluten free meal in a lovely cafe in teignmouth although not on the sea front, well worth visit, staff were friendly and the owner came out to talk to me about their gluten free menu and how careful they are especially as I'm a coeliac. They prepare all the food in a separate kitchen. Really well done not all cafes/resturants are that attentive.

THE best breakfast in Teignmouth, probably even Devon. What can be better than that? It’s also GLUTEN FREE, proper tasty gluten free too. Lovely friendly staff and quick service, great decor, I love this place. If your in Teignmouth or even near Teignmouth go to Finley Browns, you won’t be disappointed.

Good breakfast. Bacon was lovely. They were happy to exchange the mushrooms to extra tomatoes. £ 12.70 for the breakfast and a pot of tea.

Really lovely decor, friendly staff and great food.... We will be back 😊 we had turkey sausage bacon and cranberry in a baguette.... Brilliant ... Live the staff so cheerful

Came here a few days ago and had a cup of tea. I ordered a mince pie, and it was probably the nicest mince pie I have had for a long time. It was that nice I ordered another. I went to pay the bill for 3 teas and 2 mince pies. To my horror, I was charged over £16. I queried this and was told that a mince pie was £3.95, I couldn't believe it. I admit it was a beautiful mince pie but not worth nearly 4 quid and certainly no bigger than a shop bought one. I understand inflation and things going up as I'm in business myself, but I think far too expensive. Other than that, it was an OK place. Certainly wouldn't put me off returning, but I just wouldn't order a mince pie 😀

Paid my first visit with my family. 9 persons in total. Superb courteous and efficient service. Great food too. Will definitely be returning.

We came in this morning to enquire about gluten free breakfast options, and were really pleased to find a specific gluten free menu. I had the gluten free breakfast which was great value, hot and all cooked perfectly. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Superb value for money. Plentiful plates of well cooked and beautifully presented food. Food took a long time to come but was worth it and very reasonable. Dog friendly and great staff.

Ordered a mint milkshake expecting just that. What i got exceeded my expectations. Mint aero pieces where a pleasant surprise.

We had a lovely breakfast here - an All Day Breakfast & pancakes. The food was hot, well cooked and tasty. The pancakes were freshly made and served with fresh berries. The staff were lovely, very friendly & efficient.

Popped in on a Sunday morning before travelling back North after our holiday and immediately felt welcomed. Smiling faces all around, amazing breakfasts, couldn't ask for anything more. We'll definitely be back next time we're down. Glad to have found this gem of a cafe on an already amazing trip to Teignmouth. Well done guys!

Nice little place that seems to be a pub restaurant by day and bar by night. live music that was good pool and friendly staff. good food selection as well.

What a lovely place this is. The staff are so happy and friendly and nothing seems to be too much trouble. We only had coffee here (which was brilliant) but the food looked delicious and when we returned a few days later, we were treated like old friends. If you’re in the area it’s more than worth a visit.

Lovely setting and friendly staff. We were in Teignmouth on holiday and myself and my daughter have dietary requirements. They have a separate gluten free menu and different choices of alternative milks. Also, the food was delicious! We were all very happy with our meal and would definitely recommend!

Another fantastic Tapas, yesterday evening, food excellent (as always) and the staff were all friendly and helpful, even though the place was packed. Special recommendation the cheese board was the best we've ever had. Excellent

Amazing place to visit, would recommend to everyone. We had lunch and coffee and cake but to top this off we booked for tapas it was amazing And 2 for £12 cocktails went down well. The staff and owner was so good it was just amazing experience from start to finish

Amazing place to stop and enjoy a bite to eat or drink . Lovely staff and delicious food . We’ll be back in the very near future .

We went to Finley Brown’s this evening for cocktails and Tapas and what a fantastic night we had. They have got it so right, the food was amazing and the cocktails just as good. The staff are all friendly and attentive and I would 100% recommend, we can’t wait to go back.

Well what can I say, from the minute me and my partner walked in till the end was absolutely amazing! Staff were so so friendly and catered our needs, the breakfast was the best I’ve ever had, the pancakes with the bacon and syrup 😍 would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a bite to eat!
