The Chart Room First Class Coffee Lounge in Torbay

A beautifully decorated cafe with lots of nautical and Cunard Luxury liner memorabilia. Good tea, coffee and cakes at reasonable prices

I have been going to the chart room for coffee and the occasional lunch for a long time and have never been disappointed, the place is always spotless and the staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful

As usual when we visit Brixham we popped in for a lunchtime coffee. This time we had cheese scones made lovingly by Jenny. They were gorgeous. The waitress was friendly, accommodating, and cheerful. Lovely place for a break and to look at all the shipping memorabilia. Close to the harbour.

If you go you must have the cream tea home made scones by Jenny went 20 may spent day in town and had no problems with any stomach bugs back in liverpool now will go back and visit again great place to eat and value for money

What a find! Popped in for a brew and stayed for the most lovely (big!) homemade scone by Jenny the chef. Absolutely delicious! A quirky venue that pays homage to our rich maritime history. Service from Karen was impeccable, couldn’t do enough for us and shared some local info for best places to visit along the coast. Would recommend.

The Chart room has the best coffee in Brixham and their home made cakes just melt in your mouth, I went today and the atmosphere in there is really friendly.. I highly recommend this lovely café.

Nice place to stop for a coffee and cake. The setting is unusual as there are so many nautical references from the owner’s history. There is a great selection of cakes to choose from and on our 2 visits our waitress, Fleur, was very friendly and helpful. Worth a visit.

A lovely venue with incredible memorabilia of Cunard ships! Lunch was delicious and the atmosphere fabulous. I'm a long time (since 1948) Cunard booster & loved the atmosphere. A unique venue for very good food.

What a Fabulous place this is! Owned and Curated by the ever-engaging Bob Higginson, this place is a treasure of QE2 and other liners memorabilia, many for sale as well. Well worth spending time and sampling the wonderful food as well, much of it cooked on the premises. Highly recommended!

Found this fabulous tea shop last year, and made a return to it again this year. A step back in time, to when ocean travell was elegant and glamorous. Nostalgia at its best. My father was a Chief engineer in the Merchant Navy, and it brought back many memories. The owner has put a lot of work into it, A Gem of Nostalgia in a modern world. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

A warm welcome in decorative surroundings of ships of the past. A great selection of home made cakes and snacks, with first class service and wonderful value make it a must when visiting Brixham

On a recent coach trip we were dropped off in Brixham. Walked around the town looking for a NICE place to have a coffee. On our second walk around I spotted the sign for The Chart room. From the outside it looked a nice place to go so we ventured inside. We were greeted by a lovely friendly lady who made us feel very welcome. Showed us to a table and gave us a menu. We had a lovely pot of tea and an excellent tea bread with butter and cheese. It was delicious. Similar to Bara brith. If you like a nice place to sit and have a cup of tea. This must be the nicest place in Brixham I hope to return one day. Thank you to the lovely lady for making us feel so welcome

The coffee at the Chart room is the best in Brixham and their home made scones were so light they almost melt in the mouth, if you are in Brixham and want a really great place to have coffee go to the Chart room

Had a great coffee and a homemade scone,all good and the atmosphere is fab.The staff are amazing. So much to look at after you have eaten and drank.

Warm welcome in very pleasant & relaxing surroundings...food and owners hospitality was excellent..well worth a visit

Another great visit to this amazing coffee lounge with a difference. If you like ships especially Cunard/White Star Line and you don't have time to stop anywhere else you need to visit this place. A fabulous stop for breakfast, lunch or dinner or just a drink. The food is great especially the warm savoury scones with onion chutney and cheddar. It's great value for money and the all the staff are helpful and obliging. It's a bit difficult to find, just look for the little alleyway behind the chip shop with a diver on the roof and you will find it tucked away there. Once you find it you are guaranteed to make a return visit.

An excellent experience the service could not have been better ,the food was very fresh and outstanding, my son is Autistic and enjoyed every moment as a quite and pleasant place ,would recommend to anyone

We enjoyed an excellent cup of coffee and cake with friendly and attentive staff and interesting nautical memorabilia.

Wow! What a welcome we received (dog included), what service and what lovely food - amazing!!! Can’t recommend more. Difficult to find but worth the perseverence - tucked down a tiny side street opposite the co-op.

Fabulous celebratory cream tea. Lovely coffee and delicious food. Lovely staff and a wonderful spot to visit. Would recommend

We arrived near to closing time, were warmly welcomed and were not rushed. The tea and cake was excellent, the decor quirky and the atmosphere warm and welcoming.

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to The Chart Room, especially the fabulous home made made mince pie (best I’ve ever tasted) and gf sticky ginger muffin. Reading the memorabilia under the glass on our table was fun.

The most amazing little ‘Davy Jones' Locker’ with lots of one of a kind antiques, ocean liner collectibles and originals. The coffee lounge has a great selection of cakes (and they’re not stingy with their slices), various brunch items including vegan and vegetarian options (even...

Found this gem of a place in Brixham. Coffee lounge in 1930s ocean liner theme. Warmly welcomed by Karen who was friendly and helpful. Can recommend the homemade lemon drizzle and coffee/walnut sponges. Delicious.

Not to be missed though slightly hidden away! Lovely staff, amazing decor & delicious coffee and scones. Would highly recommend for an afternoon tea.

Brixham's Hidden Gem. This coffee lounge offers the perfect combination of polite, efficient service, historical memorabilia and delicious hot chocolate. The cakes looked amazing, and there is a relaxing ambiance. The shipping artefacts are truly amazing and well worth a visit in their own right....

Went in here for the first time and it was great! Met up with friends for a coffee and received a warm welcome. Ended up having toast/ tea cake too, freshly made. Lots of memorabilia to look at. Will go back again.

Great staff. Brilliant food, cakes and drinks. Really interesting nautical memorabilia. Highly recommended.
