This is my go to place. Absolutely love it. I go to Devon numerous times a year and this is always on my list of places to go. Always clean and drinks are delicious. Visited today with family, walked in and a smell hit me..can only describe it as a dirty smell and then was passed a drink with a hair on the glass. Please sort this out. Beautiful place beautiful location

Quite a trendy cocktail bar right on the harbour front. Good range of cocktails and nice manager. The decor is good and quirky. The cleanliness of the bar could be improved, the first chair we sat on had a carpet of dog hair underneath it and on another evening when the manager was absent there were lots of tables with empty glasses left on them. Lovely bar for a pre or post dinner drink.

Looking for a cocktail bar in Brixham, the Mermaid is your perfect choice. Try and get a table at the front with great views across the harbour. A very busy place so choice of time to drink is important. Staff were excellent and we were served drinks super quick. Great music and atmosphere, it was all over so quickly. 10/10

Down from Essex visiting Brixham for the weekend, brought the dog with us so wasn’t expecting anywhere to be available for drinks with the dog inside but, The Mermaid couldn’t have been more welcoming! Not only did they allow our little pooch inside and provide him with a dog bowl and treats but Kevin and the team couldnt have been more welcoming to us. We may have stayed for one too many due to the friendly atmosphere and would highly recommend, will defiantly be returning

It’s a shame that we’re heading back to London tomorrow as we would have loved to spend more time at The Mermaid looking at the stunning views, drinking the fabulous cocktails and taking in the warm hospitality. Thanks team Mermaid!

What a little treasure to be found in Brixham Harbour. On the Main harbour by the ship and what a true delight from the moment you walk in with Kevin to greet you, your made to feel special, welcomed and generally cherished! To top it off an amazing espresso martini or 3 to end your Saturday afternoon. Nothing can beat the service or welcome. I can’t wait to come back in June already! See you guys soon. Brixham has our heart always and now the Mermaid too.

Staying in Brixham fir a week. Went for an early evening walk, and saw the mermaid. Looked lovey from the outside so thought we woukd go in and have a drink. The decor was brilliant, and service at the bar was excellent. Sat at a table next to the window. The manager came over to ask if everything was ok. He stayed and chatted for a while, telling us about the other places that are part of the group. I have to say that is what I would call excellent customer service. Thank you Kevin. We will be back again for sure.

Brilliant place! Ten of us went to The Mermaid early evening today and we couldn’t have been more welcomed. Three generations of family and our dog, having started our evening elsewhere where we had an awful customer service experience, staff at the mermaid couldn’t have been more different, we had bought a cake for my father in laws birthday they didn’t hesitate in lending us a knife and even offered to play happy birthday. It’s clear the mermaid is a versatile place to be, great tunes, a mixture of cocktails, mocktails, hot drinks lovely bar snacks there was even snacks for the dog!! We will definitely be returning, thank you for being so kind 💗

Wow! Walking around Brixham on Sunday morning we couldn’t miss the spectacular entrance to the Mermaid Bar. The side windows were full of water and bubbles changing colour ! We felt we should go in and have a look around. So glad we did. We ordered cocktails for myself and daughter and ciders for the men, and pleasantly surprised at the best service from “Will”. A very friendly, likeable young man with interesting conversation. Think we were first customers of the day and so were able to choose comfy leather armchairs by the open front windows. The bar has been recently changed to include the mermaid theme and the bar is actually the shape of a boat. It’s amazing. Even the ladies toilet is very impressive. We didn’t want to leave. One of the best bars we’ve been in.

Enjoyed the music. Decor well thought out and interesting, especially the bubble wall at the entrance which is very impressive ! Both guys behind the bar were professional and organised, especially the older of the two guys which I presume was the manager. Good selection of drinks and cocktails and price as expected. I had my usual tipple and ordered a Pina Colada for my wife and she said it was the nicest she'd ever had. Made by the youngest guy behind the bar with long hair, who was enthusiastic and chatty and made the cocktail with flair. Will definitely be paying another visit before the end of our holiday. Definitely recommend this gem of Brixham.
