Stokeley Cafe in South Hams

Amazing breakfast , the eggs benedict were beautifully presented and tasted amazing , The Cafe was so clean and airy and the staff so pleasant and smiley , look forward to returning for a Sunday roast soon,

Passing by on our way to Slapton Ley. We called in for a look around while it was raining. We decided to have lunch. QUALITY!!! Meals were fantastic. Ham and Eggs for me. The specials beer battered fishfinger sandwich for my Mrs. Portions were large. Great value. Well cooked and well presented. The Staff were nice and polite. When I got up to pay I noticed the Brownies, Tiffin and Rock Roads. OMG!! Got a couple to takeaway. Really I should have got more. They were Beltin!!! Large and tasty. When I did pay I accidentally gave the young girl £20 too much. She immediately brought this to my attention and handed it back. So along with nice and polite I can add honest. I’ve travelled both Devon and Cornwall counties 2-3 times each year for the last 8 years and I’d say this was one of the LITTLE GEM finds we all look for. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. Along with great food their farm shop is great and the little shops have some great little gifts. Also noticed their own brewery and LIVE MUSIC on certain nights. Wish we had known about this on our first day. Not sadly our last.

Well cooked pizza, tasty food, friendly staff, great outdoor seating for a toddler that doesn’t enjoy sitting still. Good choice for a family lunch.

Enjoyed visiting here for a tea and a massive cake so much we went back for breakfast. Not a cheap breakfast but the quality was superb and the staff friendly and helpful.

Tucked away about a mile from Slapton Sands, a little oasis. There is a craft shop, brewery and plants to buy etc. The cafe is at the far end next to the micro brewery. Sat outside with our hound. Excellent coffee and I had ham, 2 eggs with lovely orange yolks and masses of chips. There is a decent breakfast and lunch menu plus some specials. Staff very friendly. Dog friendly.

Over expensive and food extremely mediocre veggie Burgers were 10 pounds no sides no salads . Chip sides £4 extra burgers dry and bad . Staff can’t be faulted just chef

We came on Saturday for meet the chef evening which was absolutely superb in terms of quality and value for money. In fact it was so good we came back on Sunday for their roasts and they were equally good. Great service and couldn’t fault anything about either visit. We will be back!

Great farm shop with a considerable amount of local produce with a free drink in the cafe if spending more than £20. We just had drinks which were top notch although the food options looked good. Several small artisan style businesses on site, along with a brewery that’s on the list for later

We visited for lunch and to shop in farm shop. Shared a crab sandwich which was lovely. Whilst eating I remembered that I had read that we could have 10% off our bill if we showed our keyfob for the holiday let we were staying in, we were told we were mistaken, on getting back to our apartment we were right, the staff need to be informed.

Have visited this establishment on several occasions and the entire experience has been excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. On my recent visit the seafood menu was available and both dishes we had were superb. Great venue would highly recommend and the beer that is brewed on site is a bonus.

The initial greeting was welcoming and friendly and we were promptly seated where it was best for us. The food portions are large and tastes good including rarebit with wild blonde beer. Chips were beautifully presented and made with the skins. The site is much more than just food. It has local craftmakers demonstrating their skills and selling products. There is a farm shop including butchers. Everything looks great even though the food is a little pricey. This location is the home of the South Hams brewery and taphouse, so with your meal is a selection of beers and cider made on site, making the experience all the better.

Very average food. Staff were lovey but food was mediocre at best. The scone seemed to have been put in the microwave and tasted kf hot cotton wool. And it’s not cheap!

Two 'professional' chefs refused to trim the fat of a few rashers of bacon for two kids' (egg + bacon baps). Reason. 1/ 'They dont have the time' (restaurant was not busy) 2/ manager says, they dont do these requests and i have to do it myself. Sure.. I can do this at my campsite. Only.. i'm paying £60 for a breakast for 4. 2 adults 2 kids, i expect customer service. They said i was rude for requesting this from their chefs and i should leave. So we did.

Such a nice casual place with a lovely few independent shops and a micro brewery too - good always good - dog friendly - we went for brunch but missed it so waited for lunch

Nothing like it used to be! Stood ages at the sign that said wait here to be seated, no one came so I sat myself and then had to ask for a menu - that took ages as well. Menu doesn’t match the website and much less options than are on the website - then when I ordered I was told they didn’t have it, why wasn’t I told that when the menu was given to me? Staff didn’t care, stood around chatting and no customer service. Wasn’t even busy. A glass of water took 10 minutes to arrive. So disappointing as this used to be a lovely place with lovely staff!

Was told it was the usual menu but no roast for the summer which did not worry. Booked for 6 adults and 3 children when we arrived gave us the menu and told it was fish Sunday or pizza and steak sandwich. As we travelled from Plymouth it was to late to leave as nobody likes fish so ended with 2 adults stomaching the fish and steak sandwich for the others. Complete waste of money this place used to be so good definitely will not be returning.

My partner and I stopped here for lunch on Sunday and were made aware by the lovely staff that the options were pizzas, seafood or a couple of ‘non-fishy’ options. I’ve never been a big fan of seafood but thought I’d give it a go…WOW! I am converted! Had a beautiful piece of John Dory and it was TO DIE FOR! All the staff were so welcoming and attentive and will definitely be coming back again…hopefully for more seafood!

Seafood Sunday! What a treat! My partner and I had the whole crab, beautiful and fresh and we were pleasantly pleased to see it picked and presented in the shell. Fresh salad with plenty of fries with a good garlic dip Highly recommend this cafe, the breakfast is great too! Value for money all round Front of house were great, polite and very attentive, it was very busy and were made aware there would be a 20 to 30 minute wait by the kind waiter But with having the taster paddle from their own brewery we were more than happy All in all we can’t fault the place and will definitely be back

Place has gone downhill along with quality and presentation of meals had burger meal with fries the salad with the burger was limp and old the service was slow and the waitress was surly… and rude we used to love coming here… but since the original staff have left the place is lacking in atmosphere and friendliness Such a shame

Came in on 16th of may 2023 and it started off okay, waited for a table at the desk and was seated very quickly! Ordered a chicken burger and fries, the lady who took my order who i recognise from the bear and blacksmith called Louisa was so rude, and seemed to be mistreating her colleagues, i was very disappointed by the new menu not containing the regular things such as the classic sandwiches! The blonde young girl, wearing a white skirt was a great waitress and looked after us all afternoon! It’s a shame that the place has been taken over by people who can’t even be welcoming to customers! Most likely won’t be returning. Used to love coming here, but it has definitely gone down hill since the bear and blacksmith has closed! Shame!

This is not my first review of this establishment but it is very likely to be my last! I have always viewed Stokeley Farm Shop and Tap House as a fun place to eat and drink but today, the day after the coronation, was no fun at all. They had advertised a special event for coronation weekend but apart from a little bunting, there seemed no reference to it. Nobody but us, including the staff, had dressed up and the food (apart from the ribs) was disappointing. The service was quite simply POOR. My husband got our drinks from the bar himself and then it took them nearly an hour to serve my husband a rack of ribs and fries and me half a lobster. The former was delicious the latter was too, but awfully small and served with a very lacklustre salad. If it was dressed I am not sure what with. It was tasteless. The accompanying fries did nothing for me. I expected better than frozen fries from a chef who is known to us locals as more than capable. We complained about the service and we were offered a free drink but declined. It wasn’t overly busy but those who were dining left before we did because of our wait. I have said before that this place needs effective management - it still does. Yes, it will be busy with tourists in the coming months, but it’s us locals that keep these places going when all the tourists have gone!

Poor service, ordered a coffee and half a cider, no sugar with coffee nearly finished the coffee no cider in site, had to ask for it again. Staff Walking around smiling but not busy. Ordered the ram roast which you would think should be quick and hot, wrong, slow and nearly cold and then had to remind staff it comes with mint sauce. So all in all nothing positive whatsoever in our visit and won't bother going back again.

Drove past and pulled in. A great find. Highly recommend burgers, ale and cider. Service excellent and place is amazing. Very chilled and well worth a visit. Only in Dartmouth for a week and definitely coming back to try the breakfast menu.

Went for Sunday lunch, five of us in total. Had a very nice roast beef meal. Excellent service, and food. Returned for a cooked breakfast, and again for lunch later in the week. Once again, very nice food, and prompt service.

We have been regulars here for the last 7 years. Today we took a friend here for Sunday lunch. The food was excellent - good size portion, beautifully cooked, tasty chicken with all the trimmings. In fact my only negative on the food side was...

Great service, fantastic food, dog friendly- what more to be asked of after a long walk along the beach?! Considering extending our holiday let so we can come next Sunday!

Had booked a table for a family roast of eight and had pre ordered the food so the kitchen were aware of what we were having and the time of arrival. On arrival, our table was still full of breakfast plates, cups and saucers and...

Great service and lovely coffee and cake. Great Farm shop too. They also have their own beers and dogs are welcome

sat in tap house side where brewery is situated with a nice wood burner going which gave great atmosphere as well able to bring our well behaved springer spaniel sat under table table service was quick and breakfast very well presented .

Recommended to visit here for lunch by a local in Dartmouth as we are beer drinkers. We sat in the Tap House adjacent to the cafe. We settled on a burger and an excellent salad from the menu with chips on the side. Both very...

Whilst staying in Torcross we came here for lunch, we sat outside as a lovely sunny day, staff very attentive, food came out quite quickly and was very good, plenty of filling in sandwiches and the salads were very nice.

We have this cafe many times on previous holidays and at least three times in the past week.however we arrived at the cafe today just a few minutes before the 9 am opening time, we were shown to a table and given menues when no...

We used to be very regular visitors to Stokely but stopped about 6 months ago because we were unhappy with the cleanliness of the indoor area, filthy. We popped in at 1145 this morning for coffee and tea and a couple of toasted tea cakes....

I visited Stokely Café today and was served possibly the worst coffee I've ever had. It was a latte which was extremely milky and cold. In terms of more positive feedback, the venue was lovely and the food shop and gift shops were fantastic. I...

My parents and I reserved a table yesterday for pizza night at Stokeley. Arrived 10 minutes before our booking and a friendly member of staff led us to our table and took our drinks order (I'd highly recommend the pink lemonade). Ordered food a few...

Dropped in for late lunch on a Sunday and found a good table outside as it was quite quiet. Then waited 20 minutes for someone to take our order, and that was only after we had to ask someone ! Food arrived promptly and was...

20/07/2022 Popped in for some grub, didn’t come out unsatisfied. Very polite bar staff and waitresses quality food and beverages. Smooth orange juice is definitely a must but other than that spot on. 👍

Hi there I have recently visited you farm shop/ bar and the barman had nasty attitude towards me and my family which I have kids under they age of 10 with me. He was not very helpful and was talk to other (friends) while I...

Absolutely superb place the food is excellent at a very reasonable price. Farm shop is full of good local produce on site bucher sell superb steak sausages burgers etc.. Brewery on site selling superb ales and ciders. Unlke most places around Salcombe they are not...

Greeted with a warm welcome. Lots of tables to choose from. Waiters/waitresses were helpful and quick. This is our second visit and the food didn’t disappoint once again. I had the burger first time and the salmon and cream cheese second time. Both lunches were...

Just got back from breakfast and a catch up with a friend. As locals I forget we forget to review but it’s a regular haunt for us on a Sunday morning, 9.30am was busy but lovely to still be greeted with smiles from the team...

Booked a table for lunch for 6 including 2 small children. The first waiter told us he was pretty sure there wasn’t a childrens menu. I managed to find one by asking his colleague. We went to the bar to get our own drinks (for...

I remember when this was just a farm shop, so it's great to see there's now a good food offering, and beers brewed on site too. We dropped by for some lunch and a beer. I opted for the soup, which was delicious. The beers...

The Tap House is a Must Visit location. We visited 3 days in a row because our first visit, for lunch, was so good. As a result, we called in mid-afternoon and then for another lunch. The food is excellent, the beer is wonderful and...

Popped in for a cup of tea and a teacake mid morning with my elderly mother. Food and drinks arrived quickly and friendly service. However, I thought the cafe area was undergoing building works as it looked shabby/no atmosphere but was told it was just...

I am fond of this cafe. It’s a no frills, fun place where you can eat inside or out but my visit for Sunday lunch today was not a total success. Let me say, loud and clear, that the food was delicious. The portions are...

We used the taphouse at Stokely farm shop for a small going away do for a friend. The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodated every request we made, including making the venue as COVID safe as possible. Becky and Kate were generous and cheerful and...

We were seated promptly and the service was also prompt and efficient. We had Calamari and cheesy chips and a seafood salad. The Cheese was good quality on the chips and the seafood salad plentiful. The Farm shop and brewery attached are good. The cafe...

Yes this was a Sunday bank holiday lunchtime but, firstly the waiting staff were wonderful, friendly and helpful, but once seated it changed. After ordering food (simple tempourer battered prawns and deep fried calamari, plus bowl of cheesy chips, simples), nearly 3/4 hour wait for...

We arrived to get a table for breakfast at 11.10 and were told they would not deal with our food order as there would be a 25 min wait. Not happy. However they advertise they serve breakfast until 11.30 and start lunch at noon! They...

The service and food was pretty good for a busy day. I was very dissatisfied with the cleanliness of the toilets and no hot water. Essential I feel in these difficult times. Such a let down I’m afraid.

Stopped in to buy Sirloin & Fillet steak. Quality amazing. So good we popped in to buy some more to bring home.

We had a lovely and great value pizza meal. The staff were informative and helpful and everyone loved their pizza. Stokeley getsxquite busy so I'd recommend booking.

Whenever we holiday in the area, we always visit the cafe. They have an amazing wood burning pizza oven and serve reasonably priced pizzas and chips seasonally. The roast is another level! Every Sunday, there is a choice of Beef, chicken or belly of pork....

No taste, too floury, they obviously have not tasted these pizzas really awful, I dont think they care its go as quick as you can very sad as the staff are excellent the outdoor space too seems to have been left to go home to...

Back home after a wonderful weekend in Stapton Sands. We were that we have to visit the farm shop and try a few of the local produce and beers. So one Friday we drove in and picked up some bits from the farm shop. On...

Visit fairly often when on holiday. Yesterday went into shop, no one serving on till, waited 5 mins until someone arrived. Went to the cafe for a quick drink before heading home shown to a table but given no menu, the server said I’ll be...

Wow - what can I say. We have been lucky to stay at the caravan site next door and have experienced the shop (daily purchases of bread and meat) breakfast, lunch, pizza night and the hog roast. Friendly and helpful staff - who cannot do...

The staff here are very attentive and look after you all evening. The hog roast was delicious as was the music entertainment. Special shout out to Becky - nothing was too much trouble- very friendly - good advertisement for the Tap room! Of course we'll...

We’ve been coming here for years & absolutely love it. I don’t often leave reviews but with the hospitality industry struggling at the moment, I wanted to give Stokely (and the staff) a well deserved mention. Staff are really welcoming and do their utmost to...

Hugely dissapointed last Sunday. Our two families (seven people) walked up around 10.30am from Torcross on a very hot morning, only to be told that only "residents" were being seated at that time ?! Totally realise that this is a busy and trying time, but...

We visited during heat wave with small children. Staff looked very busy but they were so nice and welcoming. Seated us in the shade, brought drinks over right away, food came shortly afterwards. Absolutely excellent value for the food. I would highly recommend this place.

On a wet Sunday we came across this great mini brewery with a restaurant. Ordered a cream tea and it was delicious. Really good value. The staff were great and attentive despite being very busy. Would return for a roast as they looked fabulous. Popped...

Superb cafe shop and deli at reasonable prices friendly staff food in the cafe is excellent wonderfull beer from the onsite brewery

A lovely courtyard setting including the small garden centre, micro brewery and tap room. Very friendly and professional service, excellent lunch menu accompanied by a choice of craft ales from the excellent brewery. I can’t think of a better combination for an informal lunch.

Beautiful sunday roast had pork was sooo good and the crackling perfect good size portion follow by chocolate cake and cream delicious will be back soon Staff lovely and shop nice drinks

I would highly recommend this mini brewery with its outside under cover seating and delicious pizza oven. Delicious beers to sample and service even when full second to none..The waitresses/waiters service was very friendly and efficient and we had no worries at all in relation...

We had been here last year and had brought down a couple of friends this time as we said the full English breakfast was the best ever and they didn't disappoint us. I would highly recommend this place to everyone both for customer service and...

A friend and I went on an e-bike ride recently, and it was touch and go as to whether our batteries would last. Stokeley was about the halfway point so we decided a spot of lunch here would be ideal. The staff were really accomodating...

We had previously booked for Sunday Lunch as this is recommended before arrival, and as always it was excellent. Today Bank Holiday Monday we returned for breakfast, there is a great choice including a veggie breakfast version which I can say is very good and...

Lovely food and drink at this place during COVID restrictions. Tables arranged outdoors under cover, good job as it rained all morning and afternoon. Great burger and a huge plate of fries. A few pints of their home brewed beer from their brewery. Great service...

I had to ask to either use q code or give details for track and trace. Happily seated with menus. Others seated after us then had orders taken. I asked a member of staff if they any cake as I could see none on thr...

Excellent food and drink menu served by friendly staff in a lovely atmosphere. We are here in April, staying at the caravan site down the road it was a short walk and a brilliant find! We loved sitting outside in the sun with our dogs...

Weve been before and it never disappoints, friendly staff, wonderfully cooked produce...so tasty, we will be back 😋

We called into the farm shop and decided to stay for a quick lunch of halloumi and calamari. Both served with salad and separate dressings . Very good. Seeing the drinks prices I had to check with our server that they were correct. Birra Moretti...

Always reliable for brunch as well as a friendly welcoming. Good coffee and attentive service. Good value for money

Amazing pizza, great service and lovely setting. Deliciously cooked and with the microbrewery on site all the men in the party were very happy! My pizza was a tiny bit burnt and when they brought it to the table they immediately said they had made...

Had a delicious cooked breakfast today. The waitresses were all very friendly and made us feel welcome. The food was high quality and very tasty.

Decided to try the breakfast we have used the cafe lots in the past but all pre covid. We were welcomed and shown to our table , where we were served a fantastic breakfast which as well cooked with fresh local ingredients it was lovely....

Sunday. Arrived 1.30. Sat outside which means you effectively sit in a car park with no atmosphere at all. Soup already sold out, mash for the sausage & mash already finished! Ordered a sausage & chips and a seafood salad. One hour later the food...

We were recommended to eat here by our local Airbnb host. It did not disappoint! Very lovely vegetarian english breakfast! Good coffee as well which I found difficult to find in the area. Lots of outdoor and indoor seating There is also a farm shop...

The food in the Stokeley cafe is pretty good and the service is friendly and helpful. They have clearly made efforts to keep it Covid safe (although the hand sanitiser at the entrance was empty/broken), but the overall effect is a bit like eating in...

Lovely lunch, super food, excellent service but PLEASE do something about it being freezing cold-I know you have had to remove tables to be covid safe but this has made the place bleak, cold and sparse! There is room for a focal fire against the wall-or a rug on the floor? Waitresses going outside to take orders meant the door was frequently opened-letting more cold in-perhaps a screen would help? We had to sit with coats on-a shame.

Having not been here since last Xmas was impressed with changes made to keep up with recent outbreak. Food is still great quality, coffee and cakes are still very tasty. Staff are also doing their best and helpful.

We popped here for lunch. Lovely sunny day sitting outside.Staff were pleasant, however really slow. Took a long time to take our order and that was only because we had to stop a member of staff after waiting nearly 30mins.Food was slow to arrive. Customers that had arrived way after us were being served and got there food before us, even though there was only 2 of us and we only ordered a burger and fries each.Food was really nice though, and the prices were quite good for where we were. The mango cider was really good.When it came to asking for the bill, that was just as slow. We asked a total of 3 staff and after over 30mins we gave up, and walked into the till area and had to pay there. Staff was pleasant, but no apology when we explained we had waited a long time for the bill. She didn't know what we had ordered or could find the bill, so we had to explain what we had ordered to pay. We could have just walked out of this place after eating without paying and they wouldn't have known, but we didn't. We just kept waiting and waiting and waiting.

Saw this from the road and decided to give it a try. They were full but made every effort to accommodate us. When the food turned up it was wonderful fresh and beautifully prepared. There were foodies in my party and even they were suitably impressed. The staff were very friendly and lovely to deal with, even though they were super-busy.No wonder they have so many good reviews.

Stopped here for lunch today. Relaxed place, attentive service, and excellent food made this a very pleasant experience. I had a seafood salad. My wife had some soup. Both were very good and the prices were perfectly reasonable. Coffees and soft drinks to go with these were just fine. My wife enjoyed browsing the farm shop afterwards. Part of the site is a local brewery, which adds to the interest. The clientele looked to have a good few regulars, as well as the tourists like us, business people and groups of friends.

Never fails to deliver, a holiday must-visit. Absolutely love Stokeley’s cafe - highly recommend for breakfast/brunch/lunch. We always return when we holiday in the area.

A short walk from the motorhome and caravan campsite to enjoy a morning coffee and selection of delicious freshly prepared food, sit inside or out where there are plenty of socially distanced tables. Fabulous Adjoining farm shop well stocked with Local fresh veg, produce and freshly baked bread including a huge selection of store cupboard items. Also have a micro brewery, garden plants and craft shops. Staff are welcoming and friendly. It can get quite busy so please be patient in waiting for your order to be processed, it’s well worth the wait. THANKYOU we will look forward to our return trip next year. My only concerns were the members of public totally ignoring the signs to sanitise hands before entering and adherence to the rules for entering and exiting areas!! Please help this wonderful establishment to help keep us all safe, we all have a part to play.

Had fabulous breakfast thank you. Crushed avacado on sourdough toast with poached egg and crispy bacon just gorgeous lovely waitress really friendly, a bit of a wait but so worth it thank you 👍👍👍

Called in for lunch and was shown to a table by a nice chap. Waited for 1hour and 10 minutes for food and to top it all off the chicken was raw. Will definitely not be back.

Visited at lunchtime, was shown to our table and told we would be brought a menu after 10 minutes asked for menu. Waited 30 minutes no one came to take our order. So left we were not the only ones waiting, there were still plenty of empty tables and there seemed enough staff about but so disorganised. Saw waitresses trying to deliver food and drinks to tables that had not ordered them. Need some better organisation. Can not comment on quality of food only the fact that the service is terrible

Great evening sharing fabulous hand made pizzas with our extended family. Tried all the pizzas on offer and they were delicious. Atmosphere was great and enjoyed the well stocked bar.

We visited the cafe for lunch, it was a hot day and there was plenty of water for us and our dog. Lunch was delicious, a huge plate of tasty scampi and chicken burger was also very nice. The waiting staff were really friendly and welcomed our puppy too. Nothing was too much trouble and all felt very clean and covid safe so much so we booked pizza night the next day!Great value and tasty pizza. There were a backlog of orders, but the staff kept us informed and did everything to make our evening enjoyable. Our son has allergies and they made me feel confident that they understood and would avoid contamination. Overall excellent food and really impressive staff.

This was our second visit to Stokeley Farm Shop and Cafe. It was very busy and we were told in advance that there would be an hour wait for food, which we didn’t mind. The outside seating area is well spaced as per COVID recommendations and our 3 dogs were welcomed. There seemed to be minimal waiting staff who worked very hard to see to everybody. The meals were very slow to be served with some of our order not being served at all, which was taken off the bill with no fuss!I would like to request that the toilets are given a good scrub, especially during this period when everybody is doing their best to prevent the spread of COVID. They were extremely smelly and dirty which is off putting when your visiting an eatery. On the whole, I feel that a few more staff would take Stokeley Farm Shop and Cafe to another level!

We visited Stokeley on a very busy Friday. There was a queue for the excellent farm shop but we were served quickly in the cafe by the very hardworking staff. The food was well presented and the cafe felt Covid19 safe. Good stuff.

The food & service we had yesterday was incredible. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Refreshingly sensible prices, great burgers and halloumi fries and there's a brewery on site.... Wow. This and a walk on torcross beach were among the highlights of our holiday.

Great meal with good service. We had salads & food was great. As described. Outside seating was well spaced out & a good sun trap.

I'm gutted I have so enjoyed the Stokeley Cafe on many occasions. Coffee came nice and quick then a wait of over half a hour before I had to remind the waiter of our order, very slow. Very poor Covid virus awareness apart from face visors tables where not sanitised between customers at all. Waiters cleared tables picking glasses up that customers lips had been on by the rim then handling the chairs and rearranging the tables. Posable Covid Virus from the rim of glasses, plates and cutlery now all over tables and chair. Shocking how poor the understanding is.Recommend bringing your own sanitiser with you and wiping down chairs and table before eating yourself.A real let down and risk.
