You know what you are getting, there is room for the family to spread out, kiddies don't get tutted at and there is no washing up afterwards. It's the Weatherspoons win! Great value always

Me, Mum and Dad had left at 2am in the morning from our home for our holiday. We arrived in Torquay, and we needed breakfast. We went looking for decent cafes. A local chap informed us off a Wetherspoons (The Green Ginger) for a cooked breakfast We found the pub where the chap said it was, and my mum saw a lift, but it was all locked up, and we went into enquire about it. My mum asked the miserable looking lady behind the bar saying we need help in regards to my dad's mobility scooter cuz there was a lift and we got a reply with "the lift is not suitable for mobility scooters so you have to follow the building all the way round to the right where there is a lift" so we went around and found a lift but it led us to a shopping centre which is like a maze which was poorly signed so I went back in the pub and asked the staff member and he guided me and showed me there is a bridge so I went and followed the path where it was flat and easy for my dad so I signalled my mum and dad where I am and lead them to it. My mum helped him to cross the busy road safely without a pedestrian crossing. There was a dropped kerb at the beginning of the pavement, but when dad got into the middle and waited for traffic again. My mum noticed no dropped kerb but further down. My dad had to stay on the road for the dropped kerb further down to get back on the pavement with traffic started coming again from the busy junction. As soon as we got into the pub, there was no room to park the mobility scooter, and we found a table. The woman at the bar (was the one my mum had spoken to first about the lift) but she was polite when taking our order. The service for our food was quick and the lady was pleasant with a smile but I ordered a mocha and my drink did not taste like a mocha at all so we won't go there again. On our way out of the pub. We noticed the way back through the shopping centre. It was very badly signed posted for a shopping centre in which door for lifts/toilets and for the pub.

When we arrived the table was full of dirty dishes and glasses. Other waitresses came by and went, and table still full for about an hour. When Pandora was asked if she could clear the table, no problem!! Leaving us with a spotless table, she was so friendly and very confident in her work and towards us. We ordered Cod fish and chips - absolutely beautiful, everything was perfectly cooked ( or warmed, not sure if it’s dinged, but beautiful) Beer good and lager, lovely buss about the place. Couldn’t have asked for more. Say a big thank you to Mr Martin his staff are brilliant and a pleasure to eat in the Green Ginger Torquay.

In there tonight after football. Meat madras v good, decent pint of ale. Trouble was pub became half full of 18 year old acting as 12 year old. A table of girls screaming and shrieking for no apparent reason. We had to move tables, a mixed group quiet at first then playing a drinking game that involved bang bottles loudly. Then a bout of screeching across several groups of youngsters - seems to be a thing because when one started they all joined in. The security guys checked id outside but never came in or did a walk through. This was my worst Spoons experience ever in thousands of visits

This hotel has always been a convenient choice for local business Xmas lunches and dinners. Although there is nothing to critisize about the food , I had a very unpleasant encounter at the front desk today . I just finished one Xmas lunch today and I am due to return for another Xmas party on this Saturday with my dance group , I forgot to book the Xmas set dinner for my husband who is disabled thinking that he might not want to join in. Last minute he said he would like a night out to have a bit of fun and company . So I asked the front desk lady if I could order food from the a la carte menu and he could sit with us and be served the food that he has chosen . I said I would pay for that dish today in advance . She said the food cost £23 but she wants the balance of the money ( the hotel charges for the set Xmas menu £37) to be paid too ! I said what , even without eating the Xmas dinner , and less the starter and dessert ? She said yes of course , because he would have the benefit of listening to the music !!!!! I was absolutely gobsmacked ! Wow , what a mean spirited place ! This is after our group of 40 just had lunch , and there will be another 40 -50 to come on Saturday! They have absolutely couldn’t see how money grabbing this attitude is ..! It of course doesn’t make business sense , as it means they would rather lose another customer’s business and create a horrible bad taste and bad will . The fact that they have loads of business this time of the year make them so mean spirited , complacent and arrogant ! Reverend Lyte who used to live there. He advocated humanity , warmth and community spirit and love . He wouldn’t have approved of this lack of human warmth , common sense and greed culture !

Came away bitterly disappointed. This was to be a 'milestone ' birthday treat. We were looking forward to a beautiful afternoon tea with a table covered with a crisp, white tablecloth, laidened with delicious teatime treats overlooking Torbay. The experience was nothing like we had hoped for. No one to meet and greet us upon arrival. We were initially ignored then directed, not shown, to a cracked brown formica table 'set' for us with two paper napkins, knives and forks and two glass tumblers, in a corner, away from the main dining area and the window. Eventually, we were approached by Heidi, whom we assumed to be restaurant manager. We asked to be reseated and a table was cleared for us. We were served a pot of tea for two and awaited our food. An hour later, we were still waiting. During that time we witnessed several disgruntled customers complaining. Although there were three waiters present, we did not receive any service or attention from them. After an hour, Heidi reappeared and was very apologetic. She offered us a complimentary glass of Prosecco. Our booking had been for 3pm. By now it was 4.30. The food arrived and like the tea table, was nothing like we were led to expect. The sandwiches were not as described on the menu. Some of the fillings were spread so thinly that they were difficult to identify. The pastries were missing. The cakes were not the patisserie style fancies shown in the promotional pictures, but more like traybakes cut into different sized chunks and didn't seem particularly fresh. Our teapot was refreshed and we were given new cups and "saucers", which turned out to be side plates. Heidi did try to make us comfortable, but by that time, all hope of enjoying our afternoon was lost. We did ask a waiter for a box to take our cakes away but were told "We don't do boxes" and we're directed to a pile of paper napkins and told to help ourselves. The three saving graces are; At £25, it wasn't the most expensive afternoon tea. I would have paid more for a first class experience. Heidi did her best to keep customers happy, with what appeared to be very little support from her colleagues. Whatever the Imperial are paying her, it's not enough. The one thing that the hotel did deliver on was the magnificent view, but I give the Imperial no credit for that whatsoever. Lastly, I sent an email to the Imperial later that day, and to add insult to injury, now, almost a week later, have had no response. NB. Pictured - what the Imperial's advertising led us to expect. NOT what we got !

We were on an overnight stay and looking for a place to eat. We popped in on the off chance. Staff were very friendly and were able to accommodate us. My husband had the scallops starter and would highly recommend. I had the pate which was very nice. The prawn Thai curry was very nice. Would recommend but advise you book
