Meadfoot Beach Cafe in Torbay

Chili Nacho chips are a good choice here.

Amazing little place , the fella that was working there engaged in conversation, lovely cream tea

There isn't a Beach Cafe to touch this fabulous place, where better to meet and catch up with friends or just relax, enjoy the view and if like me one longer lives in Torquay especially Meadfoot to just be able to sit and reminisce over coffee and something preferably naughty

Excellent view. Closed on Mondays in winter. They do have a little inside area to eat in, but most seats outside you will get wet if it's raining or sea is very rough.

Good view and delicious honey-ginger icecream

Fantastic views and great menu selection.

An excellent waterside cafe, overlooking the lovely Meadfoot beach, quiet, sheltered, serving excellent coffee & delicious homemade cakes, by very amiable & helpful staff. A leisurely stroll along the coastal path from Torquay, with superb views just need to pace my return up the hill, having missed the bus. ... enjoying the peace & soothing sounds of the waves. Definitely the jewel of Torquay. Highly recommend, & if you can't manage the hill, the 64 bus passes every hour - 11 mins past the hour.

Beautiful little cafe with stunning views. Prices are fair and staff are kind

Can’t talk about food as not eaten here yet-though tempted to come down to one of their summer pizza nights. Glorious situation in the relatively quiet beach of Meadfoot. Excellent service, open all year, good coffee and friendly. Going to be a regular spot - especially once the August crowds disappear.

Beautiful location and elevated above Meadfoot Beach. A simple and unpretentious café serving no nonsense food and coffees. Welcoming crew with a sense of humour. Plenty of outside seating on the long terrace. Sauces provided in those dreadful sachets, otherwise 5 star. Why not have proper bottles at a station? Easier to use and no potential for littering. 🇬🇧🇳🇿

Lovely brekky served by lovely people 😍

Had a tuna baguette for £7+ and it was the smallest slither of tuna mayo, to the extent I had to ask for more tuna.

Friendly smiling staff. all ice cream flavours were amazing. Lovely sea view

No, it's not the south of France it's Torbay. So good we go for birthdays and anniversaries.

Food is expensive for what you get. "Posh" fish finger sandwich had two tiny bits of fish in it on average bread served with crisps. Amazing views; it could be great with a better menu, good ingredients and service. Has a bit of a tourist trap vibe to it when you pay over the odds for below average food. I'd go back for a drink but wouldn't eat there again.

Perfect place to meet friends away from the bustle of Torquay centre. Limited roadside free parking. Raised balcony seating/eating area with sea and coastal views. Public toilets within 30 metres via steps or slope at a cost of 30p.

Best location right by the sea, Lovely staff, great coffee, Very popular on a hot day, indoor seating available also...

Great staff and amazing location but ordered hot chocolate which didn’t taste of chocolate so took it back and asked for more chocolate. Drink was remade but just tasted the same. Couldn’t wait again in line to sort so left. Owner needs to taste it and decide. Shame as great place. Apple juice wasn’t very good quality and poorly presented. Flapjack super tasty. Don’t normally write reviews but can’t believe the same drink was made twice and I went to the back of queue!

We stayed at Osborne Apartments nearby. We came to Meadfoot Beach Cafe for breakfast on two consecutive mornings. Absolutely stunning location, delicious breakfast baps and iced coffees for a reasonable price. What a gem this place is.

Hidden jem Great breakfast Nice staff Popular with the all weather swimmers.. Rather them than me lol

Only had a coffee,but it was good

Fabulous spot for a breakfast. Stunning views excellent food and helpful cheery staff. What’s not to like? Beautiful sunny morning added to a great experience

Very nice cafe and welcoming staff too. Great views .

A perfect spots. Feels like you're onboard ship. The view is stunning. So relaxing & friendly.

Friendly, lush food and so close to the beach!

This place was fabulous - what a find. We had a coffee and ice-cream in the sun with beautiful views, everyone was friendly, the seats were comfortable and it was great.

really nice freshly cooked breakfast, and great polite service, happy days 🤗

When I am working in Torquay I often go to the Meadfoot Beach cafe for coffee or lunch or sometimes both. Good service, interesting choices and one of the best views in the bay.

Great place, great coffee, great staff.

Picturesque beach cafe on the South West Coastal Path. I had the Seafood Board and my wife had the soup. Beautifully cooked, well presented and delicious! I had an ice cream and my wife had a wonderful apple and cinnamon flapjack. Managed to drink 4 americanos too! Welcoming and friendly staff. Thank you!

We're local and very much appreciate having this lovely beach cafe so close to where we live. It's clean, comfortable and has easy access unless you're in a wheelchair. The access is quite steep and access to the toilets is steep. The view is beautiful, right across the bay to Brixham. Good breakfast and snacks. Beer and lagers available.

What a fabulous site for a cafe! Easy to lose a few hours over breakfast, looking out to sea. It's perched right on the cliff face with the option to sit inside or outside, so no need to worry about the weather. We had superb coffee and breakfast baps. A great start to our day. The staff are genuine and friendly too. It's five stars from us.

Food and drink were lovely, what better surroundings could you ask for..

Just called in for a coffee. Good service and drinks hot. Sat outside great views over the bay. Very popular. Fully recommend.

Wonderful view (from inside!!). Worth a repeat in the summer...

Great experience. Very friendly staff and a great view over the bay. For me the only problem was access for the disabled. Very steep slope down for wheelchair users which means extremely hard for them to get back up even in a powered chair. But that's not the fault of the restaurant.

I love this place. Since I moved in Devon I always go here when I can. I have to tell that this place get busier and busier all the times I go there but it is worth it. Meadfoot Beach Cafe is right on the beach. You can drink your coffee with the brizee touching your face and your hairs. The drink are nice and also every food they made are delightful. I have try the toast and it is nice but also the chicken burger (another time) is tasty. The bun is fresh and obviously the chicken. I raccomend it!

Mead foot beach cafe. We parked in a nearby lay-by that overlooked the sea and it was a short walk up a slight hill. It was warm inside and double glazed windows meant you could barely hear the wind , I love the big windows that allow you to look out to sea. The sea was a bit rough and it was raining and windy but that didn’t stop moomoo and I from enjoying the refuge of a very inviting cafe where dogs are allowed. I had a feeling of complete calm as I took in the scenery around me , enormous cliffs covered in greenery that towered around one side of the cafe ,huge waves crashing against the bottom of the cliffs and the sound of the wind outside was strangely comforting .chatted with the host who said that when the weather is very windy and the tide is high the waves come crashing onto the cafe windows . As I was finishing my meal the rain eased off and the sun came out . I ordered battered cod coujons chips and tartar sauce washed down with a caramel late. The food was delicious and the host was lovely . All in all a wonderful place for well behaved dogs and their humans . I would highly recommend it .

Consistently great coffee and to quote visiting relatives “cleanest toilets in England” A lovely place to relax with a coffee and a cake

Super little cafe with great ice cream and views out to see. Friendly. Just as good in the winter months for a coffee or snack. Doggie approved too.

Lovely panoramic views of the bay over too Berry head

A great little place to get a coffee and cake overlooking the sea

Lovely little cafe located at the Daddyhole end of Meadfoot Beach. Licenced, also offering soft drinks and coffees etc. great place to sit with small inside seating area. Wonderful views.

Amazing views whilst enjoying a great coffee. Staff were very friendly ☺️

Early December still great service and food. Best scampi I've had in ages

Great walk and ended with the best Mocka ever

It was OK staff not very friendly

A lovely place to eat at Meadfoot Beach. Prices are a little high for what you get, but it would be nice to have some more vegan options.

Lovely cake and drinks, didn't try main food but looked nice. Inside and outside seating. Will be back.

Lovely to visit during a seafront walk. Really nice people working. Sadly the coffee if pretty bad and weak, sorry.

Lovely location, but food expensive for what it is.

Always a great place to enjoy a coffee or lunch. Been coming here in October for over 10 years. Enjoyed several breakfasts and lunches. The home made soups always a delight. Plus the views are great.

Great place for a snack after you've been for a swim or a walk. Bit surprised that bacon or egg roll don't come with butter.

Ein kleines süßes Café direkt am Strand von Meadfoot. Kleine Vierertische an der Brüstung mit Blick auf das Wasser. Bis 12 Uhr wird Frühstück serviert, ab 12 Uhr Lunch. Und zwar bis Punkt und ab Punkt 12. Wir hatten einen frühen Lunch, der sehr gut war. Das Personal war überaus freundlich, der Ablauf unkompliziert. Einzig die leider kostenpflichtigen Toiletten bringen einen Stern Abzug.

Twenty minute wait for a below-average tuna baguette, even though it was quiet and there were plenty of staff. Person in the kitchen has clearly been told to skimp on the fillings as there was very little tuna, although it was cleverly perched on top of the lettuce to give the impression of a generous portion!

Used to be such a nice place but service and food has changed in the last two or so years since take over. Over half hour wait for a simple bacon butty even when cafe not at full capacity and on cheap roll

Great spot, but very poor food on this occasion. On a very quiet day, took 20 minutes from order for a tuna baguette even though there were plenty of staff. At around £7+ it should have been brimmed full of filling. Unfortunately not. Just a sliver of filling along the top edge. Posting this review in the hope they will do better, as we are not all just passing tourists.

Great sunny day after the thunderstorms and found this little Gem. Great fresh food and proper coffee.

First visit Best breakfast I have had in a long time Eggs bacon sausages hash brown were all spot on Tea coffee delicious Service friendly helpful but not intusive The view of the sea is fabulous Will be going back

Nice little cafe does nice food however please beware that if u are a smoker or u vape u can not sit on there seats which are outside smoke or vape on them. The ramp to go down here is quite step and is a good walk up for the older generation. Order a takeaway or go to Anstey cove cafe where u can drink as well as smoke and be seated.

Fabulous gem of a cafe . We returned daily during our stay at Osborne apartments. We had breakfast, coffee and cakes, ice cream and an early afternoon tipple , everytime we had wonderful friendly service and top quality food and beverages always for reasonable prices.. Add the absolutely stunning view and we can't wait to return next year. Thank you Debbie Keely & Tracey ( sisters)

Their Pizza nights are fab! Spent Wednesday evening on the terrace, fantastic service, very friendly staff and great views of the bay. Will definitely be back next year. Also recommend for breakfast and lunch, this is our fourth holiday and regular visits to the cafe.

One of the best breakfasts I’ve had in a long while with views to match. So glad I stumbled upon this place. Thank you guys.

Lovely spot on a sunny day. Great views towards Brixham. Popular with paddle boarders and families on holiday. We enjoyed a good salad of quiche lorraine or Spanish omelette.

An amazing location overlooking the bay. Friendly staff and excellent food. Enjoyed the pizza night.

Great night came to the pizza night last week which was a lovely evening we had the La Reine and the Vegtravaganza which was delicious. Highly recommend.

Not to bad of breakfast sausages was cheap and nasty the price well over the top for a standard breakfast only one pat of butter and one sachet of sauce bit mean for over £10 and bread was toasted on one side only

They have an excellent. modern comfortable lounge cafe at the back that I had not been aware of on previous visits We ordered our food outside took our drinks with us and they brought the breakfast through to us. Perfect in every way!

Great location with views over the sea. Good choice of freshly cooked food. 1 draught lager and 3 bottled ciders (shame only 1 type was in the fridge) Nice selection of ice cream. Toilets are nearby which you pay for

I went to this cafe last year and enjoyed lunches ,but when we went today ,i ordered quiche and i couldnt get my knife through it ,when the waitress tried she couldnt either no apology zilch wont be going again

Hopped in for a bit of lunch with some friends first visit very pleasant nice coffee, BLT okay! we're definitely go back even just for the coffee

Good food and stunning location. Veggie fry up missing some mushrooms!

I could eat in there literally every single day! We missed it one day and next day went all up there just to try the food and it was amazing! Those views are just fantastic!!!!

Food and drinks great, shame you have to pay to use the loos after.

bit overpriced, the food was ok but not remarkable. The sad part is no smoking allowed despite all the tables being outside ?? Like, who are we bothering- the o-zone layer? smh

Not bad .Good position.Average cost for beach location. Would revisit as handy when visiting location

Great friendly staff and excellent service

My favourite cafe overlooking stunning views.

Superb welcome and friendly staff, consistently good, love it, never disappoints with its excellent staff, service, food, and drinks, and great location, highly recommended

This is my local cafe and serves excellent coffee, good cakes. The staff are friendly and helpful. The view is outstanding.

I walked along the cliff path with my sister and we were delighted to find this lovely cafe. Food choice great. We really needed the rest and a great place to look at the views before we started off again. Will return. 😊 Thanks.

Just the spot to view the blue sea, with a drink, sit, atmosphere peaceful. dog friendly too.

Tables outside which have a lovely views. Dog friendly.

Tea and cake with a lovely view.

Only had hot chocolate 👌 great view, would recommend a stop here.

Very nice afterwards sitting the sun with good beer and food

Delicious parsnip, carrot & coriander soup served with bread. Homemade chocolate brownie so good. The staff were very welcoming & friendly. Would certainly recommend.

Brilliant location, very friendly service, xake and coffee very good.

Always visit this lovely cafe when we come down and stay at The Osborne, an amazing breakfast bap and the coffee is superb (Hot chocolate too) with a beautiful view across the bay sitting outside even in January. Friendly lovely owners/staff

Lovely brunch of bacon, sausage, egg and hash brown with a toasted bun., really lovely Coffee and Hot Chocolate. We're able to sit outside today in the fabulous winter sunshine.

Great view, nice hot chocolate and delicious food

It is impossible to improve perfection as is the case here

The best views and great food at a good price

Very friendly Had a great Curry Beautiful location

One of the best coffee's you'll have and cheaper than pretty much anywhere else. Not to mention you get to sit and look out at a stunning view. Food is also great and nice friendly staff.

Havnt been here for a while the breakfast bap did not disappoint was very yummy and the coffee was lovely too, the lady serving was very polite and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Location location location is incredible, good on a hot summer day (ice cream) or a winter stormy one (fry up and nice coffee) Highly recommend veggie chili and chips on a wet and windy one!

Marvellous beach cafe with lovely owners and great food! A well loved place to sit and admire the wonderful views over Meadfoot Beach. James and Emily are always attentive and delightful! Love this place!!

We visited a couple of times during our week in the area, just a shame we only discovered it near the end of the week! Very friendly service and great food, we had ice creams, brownies and a chilli which was amazing (my wife says it’s the best she’s ever tasted)! The owners are lovely, the view is great and it’s quite a quiet area so is easy to park. The majority of the seating is outside under cover, but there are also tables inside the building at the back that you might not notice at first glance, so if it’s cooler weather don’t discount it!
