The Captains Table in Teignbridge

It's decent enough. Nicely situated by the seafront. Staff are friendly but service was slow on both occasions I've been. Food is decent but nothing special if I'm being honest. There isn't much finesse. My chicken and chorizo sandwich had a massive fillet of chicken with a bit of salad. Tasty but simple. If you're passing, it's worth a visit but much better places out there.

Apparently short staffed but very polite staff. Food was cooked but had to chase, when received it must have been ready waiting for delivery so arrived very dry .

Lovely food, can recommend the prawn and smoked salmon sandwich, loads of filling. We ate inside with the gorgeous sea view. We will be returning when in the area again

Lovely lunch. Great service and very accommodating of our massive greyhound! Will be back soon.

Horrible weather sat watching the rough sea, that was good. Not busy. Food ok. Hard metal chair, cold place very strong wind that kept the door open. Staff very pleasant. £30 for 2 burger and chips

Food was good but the whole place had no atmosphere, it is like sitting in a canteen. The plastic chairs are very uncomfortable. Will not be returning.

Was great food, service and atmosphere.

Quick service, nice location but the food was extremely underwhelming and bland.

We run a local Dementia group and often attend the Captains Table for coffee afternoons. They always go above and beyond for us. 10/10. Brilliant all round. Especially a big shout out and thank you to Christie!

Great fish and chip lunch for me and pie if the week, lamb and redcurrant for Sam with a glass of red for the lady and for myself, attentive staff with a lovely view

Food was good staff good but when we went it was like eating on the moon no atmosphere

Waited ages to be acknowledged and order taken.then, it took an age to deliver 4drinks. The drinks were overpriced especially the hot chocolate at nearly £5 waitress was pleasant but it appeared to be understaffed. Shame given its location

Second visit here. The fish & chips are delicious.

Brilliant understanding of celiac needs. Fantastic experience. Great food. Excellent staff. See TripAdvisor for my full review.

Went to the captains table on January 6th 2024 very disappointing food was rubbish won't be going back didn't have 3 meals on the menu very disappointing and expensive had one childs scampi and chips and one cheese burger and two soft drinks £29.95 a rip off

We used to come here a lot, the view is beautiful as always but the service was terrible we waited 20/30 minutes to be served and once we had ordered food the wait was a another 30 minutes, for granola, a sandwich and a breakfast. When the food came the bacon sandwich wasn’t right so we sent it back it. The rest of us finished our meal, the sandwich still hadn’t arrived. So we asked for a refund and left, they promised to refund our drinks and the sandwich which they didn’t do. They only refunded the bacon sandwich. It was disappointing.

Went in sat down for 20 minutes no one came over to take our order or even acknowledged us so we got up and left. Real shame that basic customer service needs aren't being met

Looks lovely, really nice atmosphere, everything very clean but I went on Xmas eve and it was rammed I'm guessing they weren't expecting it to be so busy because service was slow as hell even to order some juice in a cup for kids and the food was cold, would go again just only if it's basically empty

The restaurant was half empty, plenty of staff, but the service was very slow. Food was decent

It's a great place to have a coffee and cake, or a meal, the restaurant overlooks the sea and its a very nice view.

Great spot to look over the sea and get some food and drink

Had to mention how cold the roast was, will leave it a while before returning.

Good coffee with great views looking out to sea

I would highly recommend the restaurant. The food is as fresh and delicious as it is possible to be. It is not just the fish which is amazing . But the vegetables and salad which accompany your dish I recommend the fish pie and the Catch of the Day. Not forgetting to try the Soup of the Day as your starter Definitely worth a visit if you are in the West Country There is a lot of care and passion that goes into the food they serve The whole team should be proud of their restaurant I wish continued success

Had to wait ages to place order, then anther 20 minutes before the food arrived, the soup was lukewarm and had to be sent back, my sisters salad looked very tired, a poor meal and expensive

Excellent meal. Sebastian delicious also lamb pie

Sitting by the window looking out at the sea on Sunday we enjoyed lamb with lots of nicely cooked vegetables and enormous Yorkshire puddings. The staff were friendly and attentive. This was our first visit - we will definitely return.

Lovely mussels. As coeliac felt very safe here, knowledgeable staff, and the Gluten free bread was amazing!! Will be back with the family (3 coeliacs!!) Thank you so much.

As a regular visitor to Teignmouth we look for places to have breakfast and this is 1 of my favourite. The full breakfast is really good definitely recommend for a hungry person. **UPDATE** 5 stars I called in on a Sunday and had the roast pork dinner. It was one of the best roast pork dinners I have ever had. The pork was perfectly cooked, with crispy crackling and juicy meat. The seasonal vegetables were also excellent, and the cauliflower cheese was creamy and delicious. The staff were very friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious Sunday roast. Here are some specific things that I liked about the roast pork dinner: The pork was perfectly cooked, with crispy crackling and juicy meat. The seasonal vegetables were well-chosen and cooked to perfection. The cauliflower cheese was creamy and delicious. The portion size was generous. The staff were friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying Sunday roast.

By the seaside cafe/restaurant great fish and chips with a decent selection of drinks

A new/revived restaurant on the seafront.

Great place. Lovely to see that it has been modernised.

Great location, breakfast was ok.

Great value locally sourced food in an excellent setting. We’ll be back!

Arrived not long before closing around 5pm. Shame they didn't stay open later as it was a glorious day. Helpful staff serving us pots of tea and carrot cake. Just the job after a 2hr guided walk.

Did not like the cafe, too noisy and only a few people in. Staff are lovely and helpful Scones are terrible, and there is plenty of cream and jam

Had a lovely meal outside on a very warm October evening

Right on sea front. Love watching the waves whilst eating good food. Food cooked fresh and served hot. Food tasty Taken a star off as crisps tasted stale and soft. This was the lunchtime menu.

Very friendly and polite staff. Food was hot and lovely. Good portions. We would go there again

Very nice food staff are really helpful great place to eat. Nice views .

Food was great, good quality. Recommend the prawn and smoked marie rose sandwiches on granary bloomer and the classic burger with fries & pink slaw. Ordered at the bar, food was delivered to our table on the promenade. What a fantastic view when enjoying a good meal. This place is a real asset to the promenade and we will be back for more.

We got seated very quickly and then was just left while they served others that were seated after us. We sat there 15 minutes then decided to leave as they clearly were not coming over to take our order. A couple that were sat near us decided to leave too after they hadn't been served.

Lovely restaurant with great view of the sea! Fantastic food, friendly staff and quick service

Would have gave a better review, if we had been served. Seated and waited for a good while then staff served others that came in after us. So we, and others left without being served. Shame as looks a nice, clean and pleasant place

We eagerly awaited The Captains Table coming to Teignmouth but the experience has been rather disappointing. On four out of five visits so far the service has ranged from bad to appalling. Tonight was the worse with inexperienced (untrained?) staff not knowing the dishes or drinks (didn't know Rioja is a red wine), forgetting orders & drinks, not clearing the table between courses, etc., and nobody seemed to be running front of house. Why keep going back you ask? Well the food is really good and consistently so. If they matched the service to the food it would be a winner. I'm not sure if we'll keep going to experience it.

Disappointed with coffee, only had drinks there, didn't try the food. Coffee arrived without froth, half got spilled into the saucer on the way by a teen waitress who either didn't noticed or didn't care.. we had to ask for a serviette to try and deal with the coffee paddle but should have been offered a replacement drink. Nice location, hoping the service and coffee quality improve soon.

Went today with my husband and Mum for a latish lunch. My husband said it was the best jacket potato he had ever had. My Mum had a egg mayonnaise sandwich which she said tasted homemade and throuhly enjoyed it. My steak sandwich was lovely. Would not hesitate to go back or recommend.

Fantastic food, a lovely view and the service was really good. Well priced for the location. There is a separate kids menu too. Facilities were clean. Will definitely visit again 😊

Fantastic the staff very helpful

29th August, rubbish, same standard food as motorway service.

Really excellent. One of the best fish and chips I have ever had. Prompt and friendly service.

Lovely food and drinks, service from Tom was wonderful

Planned a last minute dinner with family and friends last night, decided to give here a try and I have to say was the best decision. The food here is amazing, had both starters and mains and everything was cooked to perfection. Highly recommend and will be visiting again! Great addition to the seafront! Well done guys!

Was busy only main issue was soggy batter on fish and If your in a hurry then don't expect fast drinks. Food was quick however. Will go back just incase it was due to how busy it was.

Very nice food and lots of it, staff very friendly as well. Will def return.

Delicious lunch with a great sea view!

Had a family meal out. We had only eaten for breakfast before, but this time, we had a late lunch. Our children had pasta and garlic bread, which they loved, and the portions were good. Our family had various meals, burgers, gammon, scampi, and mussels, all of which were lovely, good portions. Staff were friendly as always, and they made some changes to the noise panels that have worked and also made some colourful additions to decor. We will definitely be back.

We arrived around 5pm on a Sunday evening and our party of four adults, four children and two dogs were welcomed in ad hoc. We were treated to two tables of four with a stunning view of the sea and the large park on the other side of the building. The waitress was on her toes and got all of our order correct in one go. The drinks took a little while to arrive, I guess I only think about it that way because of the heat and I was thirsty! The food was absolutely top notch; three of the adults had fish and chips, the fourth ordered the pork belly and claimed it to be the best meal he'd eaten in a long while. Mine was delicious. I've eaten fish and chips several times this holiday and this one was the best. Service was great too.

We had called in at Teignmouth to let the kids play on the park there and, after a long day, were ready for food. We chanced the Captains Table as there were 4 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs. They managed to place us all on two tables next to each other which gave us room in-between for the dogs to lay down. The staff were friendly and accommodating and even brought a bowl of water over for the dogs. We didn't have to wait too long for our food to arrive and it was top notch quality and taste! The Captains Table has a nice modern clean feel to it with fantastic sea views. Definitely recommend you try the food here and if we're in the area again I'm sure we'll dine here once more!

I have been here twice for breakfast, I will come again, as hopefully it will improve, but at the moment it has a long way to go and the manager doesn't seem up to it. Visit 1: The lift was not open so we had to carry the pushchair up the steps, which are quite steep. We were showed to our table and ordered tea/coffee, however, they forgot to come back to take our breakfast order so my partner went up to the bar. Bear in mind there were 3 serving staff and 5 occupied tables, it should not have been hard to keep track of! We didn't complain at all, but the manager did come and apologise realising it was his mistake as he seated us and took our drinks order. The food was very nice and once we ordered came promptly. Despite seeing us struggle on the way in, they still hadn't opened the lift when we left and so once again we struggled down the steps while they stood and watched. Visit 2: Turned up at 9.30am on Friday 26 May. It was supposed to open at 9am. The same manager from the first visit told us they were hoping to open at 10am - no sign outside, no update on the google opening times which still say 9am. That is extremely poor and would have taken him 5 minutes. He said they had staff issues. I saw 3 people doing things and the truth is that it is on the manager and he obviously couldn't be bothered to get in early enough to keep the cafe open as it should be. I challenged him about why the lift wasn't opened for customers, he said it was . . . Just strikes me as out of his depth completely and I don't see how they will pull this together during peak season. If I was the owner I would be looking for a competent manager.

My husband and myself had fish. I had seabass salad and he had plaice with crab sauce. Both meals were really tasty and the fish fresh. The only thing I would change was on the seabass salad to have the fish on the potatoes rather then on the salad leaves as they lost their crisp, but it was still a gorgeous meal as the flavour of the raspberries in the salad gave it a delicious flavour.

I've never been to teingmouth and was blown away by it's colourful surroundings, we are at the captains table which sits just metres from the beach. I had fish and chips and my other had burger, the food was delicious there were tables reserved, but we were in at 6 at got a table overlooking the sea, beautiful. Loved the service friendly and prompt and huge thanks from the staff when we left. I will certainly be going back

Amazing food this evening at Captains Table, delicious. Lovely friendly staff. Perfect evening, thank you.

Absolutely great food sndservice couldn't he faulted thanks Rupert

Great views, friendly staff. Really good food.

Really nice place. Great staff. Right on the sea front. Perfect holiday eateries.

Beautiful spot, friendly staff and lovely vegan fish and chips (banana flower)

Amazing fish and chips, nice tables looking over the water and great friendly staff!

Great evening meal out at the Captains Table, lovely food, great wine, service was spot on and so lovely to be able to sit and watch the sea while we ate, absolutely coming back!

Excellent find! It was brilliant to go to a restaurant with well cooked children’s choices but also quality options for adults too! The catch of the day was really perfect. Excellent service very friendly staff and beautiful views out over the sea. Very competitively priced and I would highly recommend.

Woman called Nike I think was very rude and patronising ruined the whole experience won't be going back

We had a lovely meal and a lovely time with a fantastic view

Could do with a bit of staff training in service and manners

Incredible food and wonderful service! Allowing for an unexpected walk-in for two, we were welcomed by a smiling and happy staff. After being seated and having our order taken, we were served our starters midway through our first glass of Pinot (perfect timing if I do say so myself!) Locally caught mussels and freshly back ciabatta to kick off and it did not disappoint! For mains, we chose the sharing platter for two; a seafood enthusiasts dream and beautifully presented (just look at the photo!) To top it off, the captains table has the best view of Teignmouth seafront by far and, although the weather got the better of us, it was still quite spectacular! Will certainly become a regular for experiences like this! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve been excited to come here since it’s reopening and wow! The interior is very well designed, the food was cooked to perfection (we had the seafood platter and highly recommend), the service was wonderful and all the staff were welcoming and friendly. The view adds to the ambience (even if it was a rainy day) and I cannot wait to come back again!

Had a really lovely meal, quality was excellent. The views from the restaurant are to die for, will definitely be visiting again

I went to the Captain's Table as part of a party of 10 on Saturday and the service and food were both excellent despite the size of our group. They even brought the dog some water as soon as we got in!

My wife & I eat there recently. We will definitely be returning, the food, service & ambience were brilliant. We had a seat facing the sea, my wife had the Risotto & I had the Shin of Beef. Friendly & attentive staff and very good value for money for the standard. 1st class, will look forward to a return visit when we are in the area again.

Went with family on an evening. Food was great and good value for the quality, and the staff were attentive and polite. Views were stunning and able to park nearby. Will definitely be returning soon

First visit not over impressed They weren't overly busy but Coffee took a long time coming We ordered food at the same and waitress went off then came back and asked again to confirm order Also very noisy with children screaming Would have to improve alot before I'd visit again especially as there are some other lovely coffee outlets x

Waiter Tom made our evening one to remember

First time we visited had a lovely egg and bacon sandwich, staff very friendly and welcoming. The place was very clean. We shall definitely visit again.

Excellent meal in a fantastic location. Will be back

Really beautiful location with amazing views - it's about the only place in Teignmouth where you can eat and actually see the sea! Even on a cloudy day it's lush. Food is excellent, too, with just enough choice. Will be going back.

We went there this evening for my Dads birthday. Went with no expectations, only that of the previous Beachcomber. Reserved a table with a sea view and that’s what we had. We had steak, belly pork, muscles and a seafood sharing platter. The food was awesome! So great, reasonably priced and full of flavour. The staff were lovely, attentive and super lovely with my 3 yo. Will definitely be coming back! Thank you so much!

Poor service and the food is not good but expensive. If it is busy then it is very noisy due to poor sound proofing

On our way to Kingswear we decided to stop in Teignmouth for something to eat. We weren't disappointed. Food is great, fish pie and crumble came in larger portions then expected. Good food, god service. Can't fault anything

Surprised by all the negative reviews, we booked a table online and went for an evening meal, we had a much better experience than we had expected. There was a large birthday party, which was quite noisy, however after a few minutes sat at our table this soon became background noise. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, services was good, and the food was very good. We had the humus and pitta starter which was very tasty and a great portion size. Followed by the seafood platter, this again was a good size with a good range of fish, nice portion of tasty salad along with a good amount of bread. For desert we had a couple of scoops of ice cream. We would definitely visit again, I guess you have to consider that this is a fairly new establishment, finding its feet in a small seaside town in Devon, where fast service and updating google opening times is not a priority. It’s also not a Michelin Guide restaurant.

The staff are very welcoming. We enjoyed our food, but the orange juice and apple juice tastes like it is from concentrate and poor quality.

My partner and I tried the Captains table just out of the blue. I can say what’s a cracking place, food first class, service excellent see photos.

Had fish chips and minted peas tried them dont like them but there's no other choice will go again because there is other things on the menu

We recently had lunch here, really good location with stunning views. Fantastic food and service, would highly recommend.

What a shame, we were looking forward to the opening of the old 'Beachcomber' (now the captains table). As the cafe is set right on the sea front and basically rebuilt from scratch you would think the interior design would be more in keeping with it's sea side position and not so bland. In fact you could be anywhere. The food well that was ok, there is better in the town also there is worse. We had a sandwich with chicken and chorizo on granary bread, tasted ok but the chorizo was cut a bit too thick better a thinner cut and spread more evenly. Will we be back. Not too sure, but after reading other reviews re' the evening meals, maybe worth a try.

I was in a party of 8 for dinner on a Thursday night, and the service was super, as were my Mussels. None of our group were disappointed with their food. Just needs work on the interior . It needs to be a little more atmospheric, especially for the evening service, a bit of tweeking to create a warmer atmosphere in the evening. Will definitely return

Went for an evening meal with friends. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. Will definitely return

Great food and location. We visited whilst working nearby. Staff and food were faultless! Fish sharing platter was amazing and plentiful. Can't miss the location right on the front near the pier.

Great fog friendly resteraunt, the food was exceptionally good, very friendly staff couldn't do enough to help, the muscles were very good highly recommended. The local beer on tap was also well worth a try. If you like sea food and are in Teigmouth this is well worth a visit, they do have other dishes and the stake was also excellent cooked medium rare as requested.

Very friendly staff. Good well cooked food and great virw across the sea.

Noisy. Restaurant prices yet cafe atmosphere. Good views.

Enjoyed the food, accessibility is well improved with the new lift and new disabled toilet. Staff are very nice..
