House cola was flat and tasted like 'rola cola' however the atmosphere was really nice the toilets were really Clean and laid out presentation wise really nice. The outdoor seating was plentiful with really nice children's play area that was safe might have been nice if the entrance to the side of outdoor seating that had the kids play area had a gate to secure this area as the little ones could easily run off the site quickly (as it was close to the entrance) but had lovely soft ground around the play area and it was well kept and clean. Staff were attentive on site warm and friendly. Would try their food next time as it looked very nice and presented well, judging other customers food as it came out.

Rihanna (?) was really great in her attitude, service and smiles. It makes such a difference. The presentation and quality food has decreased a little in the last year, as if the love and attention into the cooking and delivery lacks, but considering it's a buffet there's only so much you can do

What a disgusting place . We went in for Sunday carvery and spotted the cook vaping in the with clouds of vape . We spoke to the manager who said it's the 2nd complaint about this in 10 mins and would tell kitchen staff not to vape in view of customers. But seemed OK to ket them carry on. He was clueless. We have reported this to health and safety . I will never return to thus place again

Visited today for a carvery lunch..the carvery looked well presented at the counter but once on the plate it was a different matter. The server gave a good portion of meat and a very large amount of soggy stuffing. The roast potatoes were really soggy and tasted of fat, the vegetables… carrots and parsnips were undercooked..Gravy like dishwater.. unfortunately it was inedible.. wouldn’t recommend!

A large pub with lots of outdoor seating and kids play area. Inside is curiously zoned. Welcomes well behaved dogs and owners but children are allowed to roam freely in and out of pub. Had Cajun chicken with non alcoholic drink. Plenty of room left on plate to spread its wings and chips clumped together for safety.

The worst carvery we have ever had. The majority of it was luke warm except the roast potatoes! The turkey looked very undercooked and had a large rind of fat! The gravy was like dishwater! We did complain to the manager who did a refund. That night my husband had a very bad stomach (he ate more that me as I had paid!) My stomach was also not good. We feel it needs to really step up their hygiene control and make sure the food is hot!

Fabulous food!! Great service and they are very attentive. We ordered through the app every time we visited and within minutes are drinks were at our table. The food was fast , beautifully cooked and well presented. The waitresses were very quick and efficient in cleaning down tables and ensuring the restaurant was kept clean at all times. We also visited the street golf which was reasonably priced and kept to a clean standard.

Very disappointed after such a great meal and service in April. Arrived today to celebrate a birthday. Group of 9 people. All want to eat, drink and celebrate. Parked in private parking spaces labelled Hyde Dendy. Advised the barman where we had parked. Bluntly told we couldn't park there incase somebody wanted the space. Only 2 customers in whole building, plus a table of staff. Quiet Monday night. Out of season. £250- £300 lost as we all walked out.

Probably the best overall pub/restaurant in Paignton. Tye beer is great, and they have items on tap you don't often get elsewhere. The food is pub grub, but pub grub is done very well and is definitely well above average, and the staff are brilliant.

Me and my family had some food and drinks, and the quality was good. You make your order at the bar, and a waiter will bring your order to the table. The only bad part is they could do with more bar staff. Because when I made my order there was only one bar maid, and about five people waiting to be served.

We had 2 visits here on a recent stay, the first we stopped in for a drink. We ordered on the app and the drinks took 20min to arrive and were warm when they did so we left quickly afterwards. It wasnt what I would call busy, there was very little people sittting inside and only 40% of tables were taken outside. We returned the following night for our sons birthday sitting inside this time. I chose to order drinks at the bar this time which is fairly small considering the size of the premises. There only seemed to be 1 person serving drinks whilst another took food orders, when there was a queue for drinks a manager appeared served 2 girls then disappeared again even though there was still a queue. We ordered food through the app again and was surprised when our starters came out with our mains. We were told that "people often have their starter with their main" which does happen but we had ordered soup. The waitress said she would take the mains back to the kitchen but "couldn't guarantee the quality of the food" as it would be under a heat lamp. When the mains did return they obviously weren't great. Everything looks nice and new but it dosnt feel all that clean with most surfaces feeling sticky and the toilets were grim and had no hand soap. There seems to be lots of young staff in there but I question if they have any customer service training and there seems a lack of visible management. I saw the same manager ferrying bottles of wine in an Lidl basket to the bar which looked like he had just been there to buy the stuff. The place looks nice but big isn't always better.

Went for a middle of the street 3 stars as didn’t get a chance to play games and give a full and proper review. Went downstairs to an empty games area, asked to play darts but was told all the darts were broken so not possible. Went to pool table, no one there but a trail of £1 coins on the side…waited for 5mins to see if anyone was playing…after that went to the bar again and asked, they said someone was playing but they’ve popped out for a bit! We went and got a drink, in the 15-20mins we were there we didn’t see anyone come back to the pool table (despite the trail of £1 coins still being there). Didn’t seem overly fair as we would’ve got 2-3 games in during that time.

when we arrived we were greeted and welcomed to a table and had our order taken by the rudest young man ever. he told us to hurry up because he "doesn't have all day waiting for pensioners to glue their bones back together" I asked the young gentleman his name to report him to a manager. callum was his name. once we had placed our order he came out with our food, slammed it on the table with no knife and fork to eat it with. I had to ask another waiter for some tableware which she apologised and handed us. I thought that was just a one of but when it came to taking our dishes away the young boy came to collect our dishes only to ask, "haven't you two wrinkle faces turned into ghosts yet?" I exclaimed excuse" me!"he walked off. The only positive event was the food. The fish and chips in which I ate were above average for the area. It couldn't get any worse yet it did, when it came to paying for the meal, the boy made a cheeky remark about us paying in shillings or in sheep. Me and my husband ignored it, knowing the younger generation are just looking for a reaction. paid for the meal and left. we will NOT be returning!!!!

Great food. Was staying in the area for 4 nights. 2 of these nights I chose to eat here. On both occasions the experience was the same. Great staff, friendly atmosphere and decent food. First meal was Chicken New Yorker which was excellent. Very tasty and a large portion size. Second meal was Fish and Chips. Lovely large peice of cod cooked in Devon Beer Batter. Staff were attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend. Order from table via website is a huge plus. This meant we could order at our own pace and leave the staff to do what they clearly do best.. keep this place running smoothly. Bar and outside very well presented. Clean and despite both times being very busy, tables were efficiently emptied. Outside this is even more important due to seagulls swooping the moment guests leave. Highly recommend.

Food was amazing. Our group had the chicken burger, katsu chips, lasagna & garlic bread, all delicious, all good portions. Lovely. Unfortunately, we had to wait 50mins for our food 😬 Drinks came out in 10mins, which was fine, but ended up having to ask a waitress for an update on our food after 40mins. Decided not to stay for dessert for this reason. Also thought the music was very loud both inside & out.

Terrible, Dont waste your money, 2 stars is generous and only due to the two good points I mention below. Ok so good points first. Staff are friendly and kids play area is great. Bad points. It seems the entire restaurant is ran in the most corner cutting and money saving way possible. This is reflected most in the food. Drinks We ordered 2 kids fruit shoot style drinks and 2 cokes, neither of which was a known brand. The coke was okay but like the tesco or aldi own brand, not quite spot on. Food (worst bit) We ordered 1 pizza between my wife and kids (they were already quite full from ice cream earlier) and I ordered a southern fried chicken burger. The pizza was the same experience as the drinks. It just tasted like an approximation of the real thing. Just left you with a frown. The chicken burger was dreadful, if I was not starving I would've sent it back. The alleged southern fried exterior was nothing of the sort. Its was more like a badly battered piece of cod with absolutely NO southern fried taste. And even stranger this "batter" was one thin single layer, like some chicken had been put in a plastic bag and melted over it. The coleslaw was really nice but in a TINY plastic container (literally a tablespoon if that) and tasted a lot like tesco or coop finest. And the chips were perfect. In retrospec, i can't believe I did not send it back but it took nearly 25 ish minutes to get here and I was starving and did not want to wait another 25 mins for something else. No follow up fro waitress on hiw the food was. Last point that was really stupid. We were sat out the front as far away from the bar indoors as possible. Our food arrived with no cutlery and when i asked for some I was told (politely) to go back inside and get some from the bar. Ridiculous seeing as they will go inside to get you sauce. The prices they charge put them in the leagues of chain restaurants that get it right and do it well. And this place fails badly. Terrible experience.

Disgusting behaviour from the staff. The place is completely disgusting way over priced and the staff are arrogant. Have used it for many years but never again after the experience I’ve just had in there with my family. The place should be shut down with a government health warning In response to your comment my review of your establishment is completely true and accurate so I would suggest you take the criticism on board and up your game. If you don’t like it then I would suggest you find alternative employment as the pub trade is clearly not for you. You did not check the equipment so you are a liar or I would not have had to write this truthful review

We were able to reserve a table same day. Having previously visited we knew what to expect from the menu - all of the party 4 adults 2 children opted for a carvery. The server generously gave our children an extra Yorkshire as they didn’t particularly have lots of meat. There is a choice of two meats from the selection. Very tasty carvery! Desert saw various puddings at the table sundaes, cookie dough pie, churros all enjoyed. They also serve alcohol free larger - Heineken. There was live entertainment - a band of 3 guitarist and female vocalist very enjoyable 👏 and it created a great atmosphere outside. The children enjoyed the newly renovated outdoor play area. We won’t hesitate to visit again.

I can't believe I have to write this review in 2024 but this experience was shocking I cannot just let it go So 5 of us went to watch the Euro games yesterday 3 English friend and 2 of us foreigners It was all good we eat we drink spend our money then between the two game before England game started I ordered a bottle of corona through the qr like before but this time I get in a paper cup. I told a waitress I would like it in a bottle but she said they not allowed to get out bottles anymore only papercup from now on. I wasn't happy because I only like beer from bottle I don't like it from a paper cup so I thought I'm not gonna drink more but rules are rules so what can you do. Then like 10 minutes later 2 of my English friend ordered 2 cider and they get it with a glass bottle just like before. I said thats weird even we joke about it no glass for foreigners. So I went inside I talked to one of the staff and she said yeah sorry about this but you can get a bottle just get in the queue I did and then when it was my turn other staff told me no.cannot have bottle not allowed. I went outside meantime my 2 English friend get cider again in bottle no problem for them. I said I can't believe this. So my other foreigner friend there is no way its real so he gonna go in. He did asked they said ok queued up then get refused. Exact same experience He came back empty handed when my English friends get it in a bottle again so I looked around I just saw a waitress passing us with a few bottle in her tray then I looked the table next to us and I see an English lady sitting down with a fresh bottle of corona in her hand. That was the time I realised no joke its for real,no bottle for foreigners only paper cup for us but English people can get bottle. That point i just stand up and left because it was clear I'm not gonna able to get a bottle of beer as a paying customer. Obviously I experienced different treatment as a foreigner but never in any establishment as a paying customer and never to this extent It was shocking and you can imagine how I felt after I left. So the place is nice food decent but if you a foreigner I don't recommend this place because you gonna get a different treatment then locals apparently. Which is kind of sad in 2024

Visited here whilst on holiday in Paignton. It was our daughters birthday and we were looking for a nice meal. We were not dissapointed. Food was lovely. Nice atmosphere and friendly welcoming staff. Would particularly like to mention Harry who took our order. He was very patience with all our questions re allergies and couldn't have been more helpful. A good experience all round.

Called in mainly due to its sea front location for somthing to eat & drinks, and was disappointed with the food we was presented with...my beef jalfrezi ( off the specials board) was a disaster - watery tasteless sauce with small chunks of very chewy beef and it was an insult to call it a curry ! My partner who wasn't so hungry tried the 'nachos' with cheese & bacon and left most of it - thier was no salsa or peppers/ onions in between the layers of nachos just melted cheese & bits of ham... obviously these people don't know how to cook combine this with poor ingredients and you never go back 🙄

Just had worst service ever from the barmaid! She's definitely in the wrong job, no manners, please or thank you. Didn't get a full pint either, shocking!!! The guy that served me my first pint was much better, very friendly and polite. This barmaid needs to get a different job or go on a custo.er service course, absolutely shocking! I have worked in the pub trade for 22 years, and the service from this person was awful!!!

Security out of order. Hit a girl and throwing water over her. For description the security had receding hair line white and about 5.10. Not the first time I’ve seen him do stuff similar to women. He had body cam footage that “didn’t work”. Complete abuse of power.

We have our family Sunday dinner here most weeks as they cater for vegans and meat eaters so everyone is happy. Great real ale and the play park is brilliant. Lea and the team are Fab.

Been told to pick any seat which was fine then got told that it was reserved! But we’re booked a table for 2 people and a table wasn’t available for us. Only one table which had 2 seats but being told it was reserved! Keep in mind they’re knew we’re booked a table as we went to the bar and said we book a table for 2 and told the staff at the bar what name it was under! And there was no reserved sign on the table but like I said we’re booked a table for 2 in advance! And that was the only one table available for 2 and we're arrived on time for the booking of our table for two Totally disappointing! Won’t be returning!!!!!

Wasn't impressed at all. Jacket potato was burnt and salad was very, very small. Staff were really pleasant. Won't be coming here again.

Stopped by for a drink and food on separate occasions. Food is delicious and good value for money. Good selection of drinks available at the bar, however, the house cola on draught is the worst thing ever. Tables later in the evening were a bit sticky for my liking in the pub section but overall it's a tidy and clean space. The staff is friendly.

A large size pub, sports type bar. Good atmosphere, polite lady serving behind the bar. I couldn’t rate the food, as they had a notice on the entrance door, saying they weren’t serving food, I don’t know if this now is a permanent situation. I had a pint of Cruzcampo lager at £4-50 a pint, excellent value for the money.

Greeted by who we thought was an owner, who's 1st comments to us was, oh your a buy a, gift stay. As if it should make a difference how or who paid for it. The reception area and bar area where the best parts of this, hotel,the, staff in bar area, were very nice but thats where it all ends! The hallways stank of wet dog, thin corridors of old fashioned doors, there was a pile of dirty sheets left by the lift the whole time we were there. The room was absolutely revolting! The window glass was filled with water, heating that didn't work, the bathroom was a health hazard, with a shower panel that didn't fit correctly causing water to leak all over the floor. The bathroom was in need of updating badly. Furniture in bedroom was dated, and mattresses felt like they were 20 years old. The carpets in the bedroom looked absolutely filthy and stank of wet dogs, and in need of a, deep clean. Didn't even attempt to use the kettle. This hotel is aimed at coach party's and if you are not part of one its felt like you were treated differently. Avoid at all costs!! We will not be returning.
