Harleys American Bar and Grill in Torbay

We had the best meal ever my husband had the steak ribs and I had scampi really generous portions,a birthday treat will definitely be back 😋.

Will be back for my friend's 60th birthday

Utterly delicious food, easily one of the best burgers I've ever had. Staff were very friendly and helpful... even let me have a test of the chilli for spicy heat.

Lovely food and atmosphere. Had a steak which was cooked to perfection and well worth the wait for it all to be freshly cooked to order. Staff are very friendly and don't hover over you whilst you eat which was nice. Well done guys and gals I'm sure we will return again

Excellent service food looked and tasted amazing

Friendly staff, and excellent food.

Food was cold should of said at the time, bread was stale

Very impressed. Nowadays I dread eating out due to usually being disaapointed by the food, price, service or all 3! Harleys was clean, friendly, a real eye treat and the food was spot on. Ideal for after the zoo with 2 hungry kids and parents!

Great for all the family , the 5 of us thoroughly enjoyed our visit 😀

Booked after bring on Holiday in the area, we were impressed. Good food, great staff and a decent pint of Guinness.

Excellent place just up from the zoo .. food is amazing and unlike other American diners the potions are massive . Just one note every month they do music bingo so book a seat as it gets busy and the music bing is brill

Food was lovely . Big plates and proper food . Noah served us and he was so welcoming and sincere . Welcomed us with a huge smile . Noah needs a pay rise .

Came here for the 1st time today food was very nice, and a lovely big menu plenty to choose from staff where very friendly and welcoming will definately be back again

A large, fun American themed restaurant which aims to cater for everyone, offering an entire kids menu, a vegan menu and an extremely large regular menu with a whole heap of choice. Playing fun music, offering up kids colouring in too, this really is an excellent option for an evening out. Food arrived within about 20 minutes of ordering and staff were friendly. Prices were very reasonable too. Well worth a visit. Harley's also has it's own large carpark.

I might have caught them on an off night. But, my family agreed the best term for this place was "ok". Style over substance and even though we ordered a starter, someone in the kitchen or on the bar taking the order messed up, so we had everything arrive at once. Half of it cold, half of it too hot to eat. We opted to go somewhere else for a dessert as I frankly didn't want to give them any more money. After reading the reviews, we thought we were in for a treat. It was OK. Big portions, but ultimately the food was not good enough that I'd want more of it. As I said, could have been an off day. Won't be returning to see if that was the case.

Lush place brilliant food absloutley love it here !!

We loved eating here whilst we were visiting Devon, so much so that we went twice! The food is amazing and portion sizes are very generous. I had the full Rack of Ribs which was heaven. Kids loved it too. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Can't wait to visit again.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Harleys American Bar and Grill, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy, inviting atmosphere that set the tone for the evening. Let’s start with the ribs—oh, the ribs! These were hands down the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly smoked, tender, and falling off the bone, they were infused with a rich, smoky flavor that was simply out of this world. The glaze was a perfect balance of sweet and tangy, making every bite a mouthwatering delight. Paired with their house-made BBQ sauce, the ribs were a true testament to the art of American barbecue. But the highlight of the meal didn’t stop there. For dessert, I indulged in their Biscoff milkshake, and it was nothing short of divine. This milkshake was a creamy, dreamy concoction that perfectly captured the unique flavor of Biscoff cookies. It was thick, velvety, and topped with a generous swirl of whipped cream and crushed Biscoff crumbs. Every sip was a nostalgic treat that took me straight back to childhood, but with an elevated twist. Overall, Harleys American Bar and Grill delivers an exceptional dining experience that combines classic American comfort food with top-notch execution. Whether you're a BBQ aficionado or just looking for a fantastic meal, this place is a must-visit. I can't wait to go back!

Have been there 4 times now and have loved it every time, glad that we have a decent restaurant like that in the bay

Harley's American Bar is a vibrant venue that captures the essence of American bar culture. With an inviting atmosphere and a diverse selection of drinks, it’s perfect for both casual hangouts and special occasions. The staff is friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. The menu offers a variety of classic American dishes that are tasty and well-prepared. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day or enjoy a night out with friends, Harley's American Bar delivers a lively and enjoyable experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a taste of America!

Very average all round. Have to say I was excited about going to an American diner as haven't been to one for a while. Massive menu. Maybe to big rather than concentrate on doing fewer dishes better. Food came out. All was like warm. It just all seemed a bit chef microwave. Mushrooms were all soggy, jalapenos were pretty roar. Chips were very bland which was a shame as normally great in diners. Think they were just a bit under done. I had the peri peri chicken which was ok but again tasted a bit re cooked in a microwave but tasted ok. Other half had a burger which she said was nice. But she said the same about chips. Don't get me wrong it wasn't bad but it just wasn't that great either. Maybe just an off day. Just saying an honest review of how we found our experience.

For the real meat lover. My spare ribs were 15x30 cm and 3 cm thick

The best burger I have had out probably ever. Piping hot and extremely tasty. Big portion size and excellent value for money. Too full for dessert! Good service and free parking if you validate your car inside. Would definitely go there again.

Loved every bite of my massive burger.

Great karaoke night at sportsbar.

Lovely atmosphere, and really helpful staff! Andrea was very kind, and you can tell she’s really passionate about her job!☺️

Stopped here for breakfast while on holiday, it was brilliant! Both had the Americana breakfast and couldn't fault it! Service was brilliant, very friendly and the resturant was really clean, would 100% recommend

Best Burger I've eaten for a long time! Will definitely be returning 😌

Have just had an exceptional dining experience here at Harvey's! Everything was first class. The food was delicious and the service was everything it should be and more! A return visit is definitely on the cards. Well done indeed.

Great food and atmosphere. Decently priced as well.

Our first visit for food, and really enjoyed it. Midweek, so not hugely busy. I like the fact that their 'sports' bar is on a different floor, and so eating/socialising is not affected by TV screens etc.

Stopped by for dinner, vast selection of meals available (how much is too much?) and we settled on a burger and a chicken and ribs combo eventually. Food was good value for money and staff is friendly. The music was a bit loud for us but was eventually adjusted, so nothing to complain.

Visited here for the first time and I will definitely come back again. The food was amazing I had the burger with fried chicken,beef brisket bacon and cheese the restaurant in general was really nice and well themed the only thing was customer service could have been a bit better no one came to check on how our food was halfway through or when they came to pick up the empty plates they didn't ask how was your food then either.But other than that I would come back again

went for music bingo and had a great night

Had a fabulous birthday evening with family. Great that there's free parking, just register your number plate at the bar. Brilliant menu, filled up on the main course and was disappointed that I couldn't manage a dessert but next time I'll make sure to leave room!

Staff are absolutely amazing, the food is gorgeous and the atmosphere here is incredible, happy and joyful’

The staff were brilliant and accommodated us at very short notice. The building and decor are amazing. Food selection is huge including vegan items. The food and drinks we had were very good and tasty. Staff are friendly and helpful. Would recommend.

HAVE REPLIED TO YOUR MESSAGE SEE BELOW. If the menus on your website are now timed when they are in use then add it to them. We returned after many great meals at Harleys to find that we now could not order what we previously ordered as the menu was no longer in use mid afternoon. Left very disappointed. We went up the road to Maldon and got the great meal we wanted. It’s further to travel but that going to be our Sunday place to go from now on. REPLY TO YOUR ANSWER. We were never even offered the after 4pm menu even when we said what we wanted to order. Steak and Ribs Combo x2. It was a blank refusal by your staff.

Went back this week and yet again the food was superb. We had a full range of meals between us from a piggy sue burger, ribs and chicken wings. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.. The portions were big enough to not need dessert but the options on the dessert menu were too good to miss.. highly recommended if you like American food/atmosphere..

Nice to get these folks back in the food business. Loved my Philly steak baguette. Pleasant people and good grub.

If you love fish and chips you would be very hard pressed to find anywhere better in the whole of devon. Best there is, best there was and best there has ever been.

You book your car into the site when you enter the building. The waitress/bar staff take your order and bring the food and drinks to your table. The decoration is great and set to a theme. Overall, it was a great place to relax and dine.

Great food, piping hot, extremely good portions! Best wings I've had!

Excellent value pub style food by modern day standards seriously spoiled on father's day lunchtime by oh so loud loud horrible continuos heavy metal type tuneless (I'm sure niche interest) music. Like Richard Ingrams said once about Radio 3 in the morning "not everyone wants to listen to Shostakovich when putting their trousers on" . If you like a loud thumping relentless backdrop to a meal then I can serious recommend this for food and value. Personally I will stick to take away from here which is always good.

Great food very busy would advise booking

Food was great, but some staff were miserable. Fly fell into my drink, we asked if we could possibly get a new drink ( which was a cocktail from a machine) they said no. Common courtesy would be to pour your customer a new drink. Owner was just very awkward about it. I will not be returning.

- Lovely staff members, super quick and efficient! - food was super delicious, great portions size, cooked to perfection. - dining area and toilets very clean. - great vegan options! Overall great experience would definitely come back again.

Visited for lunch before zoo. Place was empty. Really disappointed as I thought this was going to be home made great food from reviews. But frozen chips, frozen basic onion rings. Gutted as we all love a proper home made onion ring. My daughter loved the mac & cheese. Burger was average burger with some bbq sauce & cheese on. My son wouldn't eat the hot dog as he said it was chewy. Expected more for £70

Delicious food! Massive portions! Friendly staff. They have a cool sports bar downstairs too which is a bonus. They are also child friendly and dog friendly. We have become regulars here and recommend to all.

Food is definitely not worth the prices. Everything tasted like frozen party food.. very dissatisfied with this.. I definitely do not recommend, especially if going for an American experience, couldn't be any further from this.

Had the chicken mayo came with no mayo had to use my sons steak knife to cut the flat bread very disappointed

Very friendly staff. Food looked gorgeous. Music bingo first Monday in the month a must.

Really nice place to eat. Service was great, huge portions of well cooked, good quality food that came out quickly. Was very impressed

Absolutely fantastic service and food great place to go for breakfast lunch and dinner

Boiling hot, stuffy and air un breathable we asked to open a window and got snide remarks saying if u can open it if u can knowing it was shut

My son has azma asked to have a window open and sarcastically got told to open a window and they new the windows didn't open it was hot and stuffy enyone with brethren problems should not visit this bar and grill and staff where rude

Went to Harleys last night to celebrate our daughters birthday. 8 of us placed on nice big table. The food came quickly and was absolutely delicious. We all ordered something different and we couldn't complain about anything. The staff were lovely and the restaurant welcoming. Cant wait to visit again. Thanks all. Sue and Paul Moody

Absolutely delicious! I am American and was craving BBQ Harleys fit the bill!! Great ribs! Meaty, tender and the sauce was on point. We are definitely going back! Service was quick and the staff very friendly! I will be trying something different next visit. They have a very extensive menu, something for everyone! Fabulous!

20/04/24 - 13:00 Excellent food! Brilliant customer service put candles in my younger brothers meal and sang happy birthday would highly recommend this place the 2 ladies at the bar deserve a raise!!

Been here quite a few time for Breakfast it's amazing. Evening meals are just as good. Very friendly and welcoming people.

Massive ribs very tasty. Looks great inside but the young lad was struggling with taking the orders.

What an excellent place for food, well priced and awesome taste, and decent price. So why only a 2 for service well the bar the bar the bar need I say more so slooooowww and only one! Next weird point is yet again seem to have found an eatery that likes to know your registration plate of your car ( otherwise their may be a surprise bill) Why does this only happen in Torbay? Lol

a great place when it comes to the American atmosphere BUT ! Unfortunately, the food was frozen and tasteless . When it comes to service, people are friendly and smiling. Unfortunately, the waiters forgot about the salad ordered separately. the problem is that my partner and I were the only people in the restaurant and our order was forgotten. Additionally, the table we were sent to was very dirty and sticky with sauce , but the lady, after asking, cleared our table without a grimace.

Generous portions.. lots of options including vegetarian and vegan.

Went here fantastic food cooked perfectly will definitely going back the staff were brilliant checking if everything was okay what more can you ask for

Gave it a try out after it recently opened. Food was good and didn't really notice waiting for it at all, so timely service. Will certainly visit again. Update: Went again, this time to the Sports bar down below. Good atmosphere, all the football games being shown (TNT Sports), think they probably have Sky Sports as well. Only gripe, which can't really be fixed, is that there is little headroom to the bar, so all the TV screens are easily obstructed from view by people moving around and when people are playing pool on the table. I guess you just have to find the right place. Bar service was prompt though. Will come back again when more matches are on.

Love coming to Harleys! It’s always a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Always big portions. great value for money

Came at the moment as a group of 11, yes we should of booked but was a last minute thing and they graciously fitted us all in. Waiting in the sports bar while waiting for a table. 3 people slipped down the stairs to the sport bar as raining. There is a wet floor sign and a hand rail but just a word of warning. As there was a lot of us I imagine we made the sports bar rather noisy but they didn't need to turn up the music when we sat to a almost too loud to have a conversation level. Everyone was super happy with their food and portions were great sizes. Waiting time for food was brilliant. Cleared quickly and we ordered dessert. Churros were not worth the money. Tasted like burnt toast. Very hard and nothing like Churros in our opinions as we all tried them and several people ordered them. One dessert got lost on the way and we had to wait a while and then wasn't very satisfied with that either. We all had a lovely time. Great atmosphere, nice and polite servers. Plus free parking. Great for groups and family's. Lovely decor. Would come again.

Generous portions, reasonably priced and a large , varied menu. Good service and didn't have to wait long for food. My wife loves the music too , so no doubt we'll be going again.

Big portions, reasonable prices, friendly service, tasty burgers, What's not to like 😁

Came into today for a birthday brunch with a friend, place is big & open with lots of American decorations that fit well! Place was nice & clean too! My friend had the Mac & cheese which she enjoyed very much, I had the applewood smoked cheese burger which was very juicy & meant was medium rare just the way I think is the best way to have a burger, was not too greasy & the cheese had a nice smoky flavour, your side portions are very generous too! Milkshakes are very yummy & cold but easy to drink through a straw, we had vanilla, I had apple pie for dessert which was yummy too with the vanilla ice cream & whip cream, pie was nice & warm! Employees are very friendly & helpful, waiting for food was no more than 15 minutes which is very fast in my opinion! Prices are very reasonable, the only 2 little things I would change is that hot food come out on warm plates & lighting be a bit more brighter inside as some areas were quite dark inside but saying that it was a very grey cloudy day so I will take that into consideration! Will definitely be coming back with my friend! Looking forward to be trying the tacos from their dinner menu next time!

Very extensive menu, food was excellent & lots of it, very well priced. Staff where friendly & helpful. Will visit again

Personally I love the atmosphere of the place. There is so much to look at inside and certainly brings a great classic America feel with some rock and roll music playing in the back ground. We have eaten here a couple of times and I could happily just spend a night here chilling out as well eating out. The food is good but I would say you really need to rethink the menu there is simply too much on offer. I highly recommend you simplify and just start appealing more to the locals in the area because you guys have a lot of potential but I think you’ve taken on too much trying to fit all of America and South America on the menu. There is about 10 different hot dogs and 15 different burgers to choose from and the same for each other the other 10 sections and it’s just overwhelming. I know it’s difficult to stand out but the quality of food would bring me back along with the atmosphere, not the variety of choices! I think the price of some of the food and drink options is slightly over priced as well compared to other places locally which would stop me coming to you and we would like you guys to be successful and stick around!

Loads on the menu. Burgers sounded good and served with fries. Disappointment on a plate. Burger buns from asda not toasted no salad. Meat was poor and the fries were not even fresh. Save your money and goto McDonald's.

Excellent food and service will definitely be going back

Great place to eat!! Lovely food staff really enjoy my visit to Harley’s

We went to the music bingo was brilliant and the food was nice

Lovely food and the staff very friendly

Been coming to Harleys since they first opened, as live just around the corner. Excellent food and portion sizes and friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

Great food, great place, great service, couldn’t fault anything, this is my go to place for the food they serve, would recommend to everyone to give this place a try.

I have dined here on a couple of occasions, and I've also ordered for home delivery on many of occasions.. Tonight we were very disappointed with the service, it was very slow, stood at the bar possibly 10 min, didn't even get "a member if staff with be with your shortly, no acknowledgement at all.. And the restaurant was quiet ! When we finally got served, no eye contact no customer service (don't think she wanted to be there actually). No manners. Did hear a complaint about the service from another customer whilst in there. Saw 1 young girl working constantly who was very polite and checked in on us to see our food was ok... Our food was perfect 👌 It always is, so this is why I will still recommend and go back. But if happens again will bring it up with the member of staff

Could do with some heating staff need to listen more otherwise very nice evening

Excellent choice of food family of 14 went Sunday night plenty of food on plate very reasonable prices WILL GO BACK SOON interesting memorabilia on walls and downstairs sports bar hello Andrea were coming back this week evening to enjoy another meal

Brilliant place. We love going here, it's so lovely to see it busy and full of life. Food is great and the staff are so accommodating.

Had a great time with friends great food service and atmosphere..

I've been twice this week and hands down it's officially my favorite restuarant in paignton. Amazing staff, cheap prices, humongous portions, and the food is to die for. I will forever recommend this restuarant!! The menu is massive with all the great American and British classics! Things you won't find anywhere else! If you havnt been here you're missing out!

Great food and service, the steak was awesome. It was very cold inside though, but it was mid week and quiet so I wouldn't expect them to be blowing money on heating for a coiple of guests. Definitely will be back.

An enjoyable evening although it was quiet being mid week. Exceptionally clean and tidy, food excellent, staff very courteous, will definitely go again.

So cold! No heating on? Very average breakfast. Sorry, this place doesn't rock my boat! Plenty of CCTV covered parking, you must give your registration details on entry to the premises, or you will be fined if you didn't pay for parking!

Love it here. Staff are so lovely and pleasant. Food is great. Good sized portions at a reasonable price.

The food was excellent! Great portion size, tasty and hot. The milkshakes were disappointing ☹️. Barely chilled and not much flavour. Charged £3-4 each and the 99p cartons in the supermarkets are far better. Did not appreciate being put on a table directly outside the mens toilets. It was out the way of all the good atmosphere. We were told all the other tables were reserved. About 4 tables were occupied when we arrived and 6 when we left. A massive 75%+ were unoccupied 👎

So far I've had the breakfast baguette with scrambled egg and the big one breakfast with dried egg. All deliverd to palace avenue. HOT, egg done perfectly. Obviously time restrictive items I.e toast was cold. But perfect so far. Will be ordering again. Definitely recommend.

1st time ive been here. Very good. Had the Garlic chicken ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not busy when I walked in, the staff where to busy having a chat among there selves to say good afternoon to me..

Love it - lovely interior design and lighting, good menu, enjoyable visit :)

Not been open long. Friendly staff great service. Fairly priced for the portion sizes. Would go again. Chilli burger was delicious.

Torquays answer to Hard Rock cafe. Good food ,large portions reasonable price. Dog friendly

Popped in twice when we were there would have gone again but we had to go home the team are fantastic friendly and professional the food is fantastic and a great choice of beers well done team keep up the good work see you next time we are in the area five stars

Brilliant place. Brilliant food. Lovely staff. Would absolutely come back. If you're looking for a good place in the area then come here. Fantastic value for money.

Nice place, lots of tables. They have a great vegan menu, too. Big carpark where you can park for free for 4 hours. Just remember to validate your reg plate when coming in so you don't get a fine. Great prices, food was delicious and decent sized portions. Staff are always really lovely and welcoming. They are quick to get you what you need. I've been here a bunch of times, and it doesn't disappoint. See you next time!!!
