Wonderful food to suit all tastes , I am gluten free so, my meal was adapted, grilled instead of fried fish. The staff are all very obliging, friendly, and following hygiene rules.

Expensive place. They have improved their coffee, as it used to be very bitter...had a scone with jam and butter...you had to pay for the jam and the butter barely covered the scone, so asked for more and was told you had to pay for it...so miserly! I go their regularly, as it's a pleasant environment and handy, but don't order a scone anymore!

As a retired chef and hotelier I couldn't fault yesterdays lunch here and the helpful friendly staff. Hoopers Store is the absolute gem of Torquay; it sells very stylish top quality goods and has a very contemporary feel. The cafe is fantastic and close by especially for boat owners in the Marina-(and has a great view overlooking it) . Their inviting on-the-wall menu board has so much choice and their presentation of the dishes is the best I've found anywhere in Torquay. There is a but coming, but not taking a star off for it. The cafe has a very good choice of dishes for 21st century "thinking diners" so creating another unique selling point (USP) for their store for me would be promoting a section for non/faux-leather goods (shoes, handbags, belts etc). Leathermaking is the third most toxic manufacturing process on the planet after gold and diamond mining. There were however some stunning vegan Scandinavian sneekers in store yesterday!

The store itself is nice, for a small department store it has a good selection of items. I would have given a higher rating if it were not for the staff- some of them are truly awful! Every time I go into this store there are usually way too many sales assistants on the ground floor, just standing around on the floor and chatting, yet none are stood at a till point taking up unnecessary time finding someone to take my payment. Also beware if you carry items between floors which are not in a basket- last time I was there I took an item of clothing that I wanted to buy up to the top floor to look at other items, the plan being to pay for all items together- I was carrying it openly for all to see. A sales assistant actually ran after me from the clothing floor and it felt like she was implying that I planned to steal this item- when I explained that I was planning on paying for all items together, I got asked if I had got the correct size as though I just randomly pick clothes up without checking to sell down the pub or on eBay. Never had this experience before anywhere in the UK or abroad when carrying items between floors in department stores.

We visited Hoopers, Torquay today. Lovely, friendly cafe. Good menu and excellent service. Today we enjoyed freshly cooked fish and chips. Earlier in the week just had a cuppa now and again…. My favourite cake was Plum and Cherry slice. Yummy. Well done ladies, and thank you for you kind hospitality. We’ll visit again later in the year 🤗

Quality traditional department store. Possibly the last one in Torbay. A high end store over three floors, with lift. Top name brands throughout with professional and courteous staff, all very well presented. It has an excellent cafe/restaurant on the top floor, which can also be accessed at this level from the street behind. This was the highlight of our visit, where we enjoyed high quality meals, whilst enjoying spectacular views over Torquay Harbour. Rain or shine, Hoppers is well worth a visit if you are visiting Torquay. If you found this review/photos helpful, please click the like or helpful button. Thanks.

On 16th January I bought 3 items of clothing and was served by Shirley. She was exceptional, friendly and warm, and immediately pointed out a potential trip hazard recognising that I had a slight balance problem. She kept checking if I needed any help while in the changing room. She is highly trained, very experienced and professional. I understand she has had vast experience at a high level and is certainly an asset to Hoopers.

Me and my mum wandered into Hoopers to get some lunch and it was a wonderful experience with a great view! I got the homemade soup and it was delicious, and the lovely young waitress who brought our food and drinks over was just delightful. She stopped to ask us how our Christmas was and chatted to us and then left us to it. She was so smiley and welcoming it was just lovely to see. When she cleared our table she wished us a good day and a happy new year. It was a lovely experience with amazing hospitality and great food! Highly recommend going in.

What a lovely atmosphere this bright,light cafe has.We came in a dreary day and really enjoyed watching the world go by below us,and the boats bobbing along in the harbour. I thoroughly enjoyed my warm mince pie and pot of tea while my daughter loved the soup of the day with a nice big slice of brown bread.She said it was delicious. The staff here are attentive and thoughtful. Our young waitress seemed totally competent and confident,smiling throughout and making us feel totally at ease. We will be visiting often,I imagine,as we left feeling very happy.

Worst experience ever. My Husbands meal order was incorrect but rather than apologising, the Chef came out to our table!!! All they had to do was correct the order. The Chef spoke very loudly until I told her she was causing an embarrassment to us. It was completely the fault of a young member of staff causing problems at the till and a senior member of staff realising this. A horrid nosy couple deciding to take sides over our refund ( there was no row ) leant infront of my calm patient husband saying how they enjoyed theirs ( lucky them) but adding to a horrid situation. We eat out each week end Saturday & Sunday and it's the worst restaurant anywhere ive ever been here or abroad. The staff didn't concentrate on the order at the till but were waving to their family member in the restaurant. The chef had no business to come out and humiliate my husband and I in her loud manner. Hospitality has changed so much since Covid, places have to take what they can get as the people good at hospitality have left and found other roles leaving the poor customer with the worst staff and managers put up with the bad behaviour as they can't employ people who understand Good Customer Service. I'm thoroughly disgusted. The Chef and junior staff need to learn to do their jobs, the Chef should remain in the kitchen at the very least!!! It is not the job of the chef to leave the kitchen and tell us how we should order when it's the staff job to ask specific things like " which Hake"? Knowing full well there were two fish both hake yet completely unknown to us. I'm still very annoyed at this horrid experience in a small busy area

Hoopers has a nice cafe with a variety of foods on their menu and a nice view. Thismorning we thought we would have brunch, consisting of Welsh rarebit and a coffee. When I asked I was informed in a curt tone the it’s only available Up to 12, I replied it’s only 10.35! So communication was poor and borderline rude.The disgruntled chef agreed to do it . When served it wasn’t toasted, just grilled on bread, so disappointed.

Don’t like to be negative but the staff moaned the hole time I was sat down about how bored they were. I ordered a sandwich because half the menu wasn’t being served due to the chef being off. I know it’s my choice to order the sandwich but I didn’t find out the chef was off until the staff moaned about it so much which means I payed 12 pound for a sandwich that wasn’t made by a proper trained chef and then had to listen to them moan whilst I ate it. Ps I know my grammars awful!

I popped into the shop for the purpose of buying perfume but must have looked to poor to buy because none of the staff assisted me on the shop floor (there were a lot of staff too, which was frustrating) ... Myself and my Dad were the only customers on that floor (it wasn't even close to closing time) but staff kept to their own conversations. I moved from one counter to another with no luck. It's a shame, because the reason I went to the bottom of town was for this shop. It hasn't been my first time here either, it has been the same when browsing clothes a month back, I assumed that I was left to my own devices as I had ear phones in at the time, I guess not.

Went into visit the hooper's restaurant as I had been shopping in there. Went to restaurant where I was ignored at first. When I approached the staff member at the checkout I asked for a fruit scone and glass of house white wine. The staff member said 'No'.....a long grumpy pause later, she replied saying you 'you have to order a sandwich if you want wine, can't just be cake'. The lady was slightly judgemental. It's fine if that's the policy however a smile would have been nice and perhaps offered something else. Im in my thirty's and had just received some good news at work so wanted to reward myself. I'm not there to get drunk and certainly was looking for a peaceful glass of wine. I've spent quite a lot in the actual store including Mulberry handbag. However I now don't feel very welcome. Thanks for ruining my afternoon.

Nice place, well decorated with a outside seating area on the seafront. Service was good with friendly staff. Great place to spend a couple of hours watching the world go by

10 of us ate in on Halloween. Fantastic fish and chips and superb service. Nice to see gravy has made it to the South West! Will be back next time we are in Devon.

We had a great evening celebrating with family; Rosie the new landlady was brought in a wealth of enthusiasm, warmth and developmental ideas to enhance the atmosphere, coupled with a great choice of drinks. Thanks for your commitment to ensure us regulars enjoy good Real Ale in clean pumps, difficult to find at other establishments. Clean and tidy throughout, tasteful decor with a welcoming team of staff. Rosie has different acts and entertainment available through the week, plenty of seating, though I do suggest arriving early to get the best seats. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Sunday lunch for 6. Everyone was very happy with the food (kids especially loved the mash). Waitress was so lovely and there were plenty of staff clearing tables etc. We did queue a long time for the carvery itself so this would be my only criticsm.
