The Singing Kettle Tea Room and Eatery in Torbay

What a let down so slow service got our order wrong 3 times.Told it was worth waiting for the best cream tea in Torquay!!!!! ,no way just bog standard tasteless scones.We didn’t return

This had been recommended to us by family, and we managed to get lunch here on the last day of our break away. It was good value, plentiful and very tasty: we had salads, pasta and the scampi between us. The freshly baked bread with some of the dishes was a nice touch. Plenty of room to sit inside and a relaxed atmosphere that put us at ease. A good place to stop and refuel.

Steer we’ll clear this year, very poor management, food was a shambles and very low quality. Lovely staff but no support with leadership or stock management. Stay away for now...

We visited over the weekend and found the singing kettle sun a prime position for passing business. It was not busy with only four tables occupied. Card payment only. Ordered two cream teas. The tea was served promptly but had to wait 30 minutes for the scones to arrive. Totally disappointed, two scones and tiny pots of jam/cream that wouldn’t even cover one scone, served way after the tea had cooled. Other guests around us were complaining of long waits. Hot food not available after 1.30. Won’t be returning.

Were so lucky to live in this town and have eateries such as this giving the best possible food at very reasonable prices.We dont need to go out of the area for anything,just lovely.

The café is currently closed, (covid) but I had such helpful communication with Lyn who organized a delivery for me of lunch and cream tea to a local business which was excellent, it really helped me out and I would recommend and use again, thank you so much and please support your local businesses.

Best scones and coffee in Torquay!Genuinely excellent serviceWe arrived late in the day but we didn't feel rushed in anyway shape or form. Cheap but only in price not in quality!And best of all. Covid rules were not shoved down our throat! We had a lovely chat with the owner who made us feel nothing but welcome in her establishment. **Disclaimer**(R&R were obviously in place)

Superb little place that we used on each of our 3 days for breakfast as we were staying at the nearby Premier Inn. Excellent value for money on a varied menu. Food was presented well and piping hot. What a refreshing change to have a pot of tea with proper tea leaves in and not your average large teabag.Both ladies who served us were excellent and made us feel very welcome. Would definitely recommend and if we visit Torquay again we’ll be back.

We stayed in Torquay for 4 days and had a gluten free cream tea every day. I am a hard woman to please with food but it was amazing! Lovely staff, easy location from the beach, a must try!

Popped in here for breakfast whilst staying at the premier inn .Lovely breakfast and good value, the staff were lovely and friendly and very helpfulplentiful breakfast with endless supply of tea,nothing too much trouble for them.Dog friendly too.Will definetely return when next down in Torquay.

Outstanding breakfast lovely people very dog friendly. Great atmosphere and attitude to Doughnut. Very nice and welcoming

We were stupid, should have sent back what they purported to be crab sandwiches. It was like the crab spread you used to be able to buy in jars and spread so thinly there was almost nothing there. Certainly no white bits. Disaster. The waitress apologised when she asked if we liked them, but no refund/reduction offered. AVOID CRAB SANDWICHES AT ALL COSTS.

I reviewed the Singing Kettle in August 2017 and made a point of taking a group of four friends back for what I knew would be an excellent breakfast. However the day before our visit I discovered that it was under new ownership, so it was with some trepidation that I dragged my friends there, especially as I had been "bigging it up" on the journey down from London. I was more than pleasantly surprised to say that the welcome was amazing, the staff were fun and friendly, and the food quality was superb and excellent value. I really do wish that I had asked for the names of management and staff as I would like to have mentioned them all personally, but sufficed to say they were a big talking point amongst my friends, who all wanted to return the next day (20th Sept) even though we had to change our plans to do so! This really is a must visit for anyone visiting Torquay, or even worth the journey in you are are staying further afield.When I returned home I had the various text "thank you's" for organising the trip, with two of the 4 offering a special thank you for taking them to the "The Singing Kettle" ! (but not even mentioning the Steam Train and river cruise I took them on!)Thank you again, and we will see you next year!

Breakfast was very poor, no atmosphere and the staff decided to rearrange tables and chairs whilst we were eating, making horrid scraping noises along the floor. Certainly not like it used to be with the previous owners

Fantastic place food was lovely and the staff very nice especially Lisa and Sarah 10/10 went there every day it was that good

Came here 11&12 September, was recommended by a friend. Great service and breakfast. It’s a tiny little gem!!

Lovely pleasant staff clean and tidy. Tasty home made cakes too. Proper tea and coffee. Good with children too.

During a 7 day stay in Torquay we visited this cafe 5 times for breakfast! It was so lovely! The staff were lovely and the food was amazing! Great little cafe will definitely be visiting again!

What a gem for High Tea, a must visit while in Dartmouth, food was amazing and the service on point.

Walked passed here while going to our hotel and really fancied a cream tea as they were advertised as "The best cream teas in town". Every time we walked passed whatever time of day, July 19th to 25th, they were closed although they advertising their opening hours. Not very good for business especially during summer holidays

Good afternoon tea options available. Limited gluten free options Given three stars as all our four orders were wrong

Average place. I came for a dairy and gluten free afternoon tea; of which was only gluten free. So I ate a sausage sandwich with gluten free bread.My family had the afternoon teas which came wrong, but we had paid for the smaller one.A suggestion for the owner to have a piece of paper with the order as each order is specific, and then to hand this to the waitress. The daughter seemed knowledgeable and could help with the menu, but the other lady not so much.All were very polite though, and amended what they could.

Just completed a lovely week in Torquay. Walked past this place most days and decided to try out on our last morning for breakfast. Firstly the food was excellent. Very tasty indeed.However, on what was a quiet time with possibly 2 other covers we were left to wait at door to be seated. Then led to a table that had not been cleaned. Order taken, but delivered incorrectly and with part of order also missing. Also found out afterwards that I had been overcharged. But to cap it all off I noticed the waitress responsible for the poor service continued to leave her mask below her chin most of the time AND spotted her rolling a cigarette in the kitchen area, go outside presumably to smoke it, only to return and not wash hands but immediately serve bacon baps to another cover. Wholly unacceptable. The ladies cooking were aware of this and did nothing.

Went in on the 11th August after checking they were on the Government's "Eat out to help out" website, which they were. Ordered our food only to be charged the full amount, both members of staff said that as far as they were aware the cafe wasn't on the scheme. I showed them the government website with the cafe listed. One of the rang her boss who told her that it was a mistake and that the cafe wasn't going on the scheme until next week. Having had that moan the food was ok, staff pleasant but Heart Radio blasting away was a tad loud.

Afternoon cream tea with a slice of carrot cake and a glass of cold Sicilian lemonade. The place was clean and friendly, the food was delicious and filling.

We were staying at the Abbey Sands Hotel , like one of your earlier correspondents , and took our lunch there last Friday . Wonderful home made soup with a large roll to accompany it , followed by Paninis ....I chose the local crab one as a treat , while my wife had the ham & cheese ....We were both very satisfied with what we ate for the bill we paid . Next time we are in Torquay , we will head there again . Highly recommended.

The staff at this Tea Room were friendly, the service was prompt and efficient. The cream tea with coffee was nicely presented and very tasty.

こちらのスコーン、一口食して中のモチモチした食感に驚きました。生地の味も良く、この先忘れられないBest sconeになりそうです。紅茶も大変良い味で、イギリスと言えど、どこでもこれ程おいしい紅茶が提供される訳ではありません。クロテッドクリームが少なく感じたので、有料でのお代わりをお願いしようか悩みましたが今回は我慢しました。スタッフの方もフレンドリーで感じが良いです。恐らく他のケーキ類もおいしいと思うので、また是非訪問したいです。

I am an commercial Estate Agent,and when I am showing clients around Torquay I often like to stop at interesting looking cafe's etc to give my people a taste of what is on offer,this tea room fitted the picture exactly. Well done

We are staying at the Abbey Sands hotel. We checked in yesterday and we're feeling a bit peckish. Looked out of the window and could see the Singing kettle so thought we'd pop over to see what they sell. we were made to feel welcome as soon as we entered. The menu is quite extensive from snacks to main meals but we opted for the cream tea. The fruity scones were served lovely and warm, with jam and clotted cream. The staff couldn't have been more friendly or helpful. They didn't even mind when I asked for some butter for my scones and promptly brought some over. The scones were delicious as was my coffee. I think I'll go back later this afternoon for another one and start the diet next week.

stopped here for my Lunch, had Prawn Jacket Potato.Nice Large Jacket filled with Jumbo Prawn with Marie Sauce, Nice large juicy prawns and plenty of sauce. with side salad. Eat outside on a lovely sunny day.

I was slightly disappointed the last visit I had here due to the lack of understanding of our order , but myself and my husband decided to give it one last chance so on Sunday afternoon we went for cream tea, we couldn’t resist but to try the sandwiches too when we saw the table next to us enjoying theirs. Everything was delicious the homemade coleslaw was the best I’ve ever had. The service was quick and served by a lovely friendly waitress. The chef came out to see if everything was ok , just a lovely atmosphere, slightly different to my last visit a couple of weeeks ago I might add .

We found this place purely by meeting the owner on a night out and popped in for a drink the next day. Such a lovely little place to go, the staff were friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. Some reviews are saying it is not the same since the new owners, come on people give these lovely people a chance

Went here as they did gluten free afternoon tea but was left a bit disappointed. They have a separate gluten free menu and the lady who makes the food really knows here allergens it seems (separate prep area etc). 3 cakes were available gluten free, two of which were also dairy free and dairy free margarine was used for our sandwiches.Maybe they were having a bad day but things did not go smoothly. They seemed to have a new asian lady taking the orders and she could not understand my accent...despite my job being one where I deal with people in a clinical setting and I often get comments on how easy I am to understand.Anyway, we tried to make our order, but she gave us a pen and paper to write it down as she couldn't understand. Then she came out after a bit to check which part was gluten free (later the person preparing to food came out with it to the table and that is how we know she knows her stuff). Part of the order did not arrive and so we had to chase it. The gluten free afternoon tea on the menu says a choice of cookie was included but there are no GF cookies.The gluten free sandwiches were a but dry and bland sadly and the cakes were sweet but a bit tasteless.I so wanted to like it here but just felt a bit let down by the end. Not awful but not a treat.

Staff very nice and friendly cream tea was very nice the scones were very nicely made and the cream was very nice clotted cream

We visited this establishment. Over the years and we came down this week to find the ownership has changed. Bad mistake I think. The counter staff oriental girl was asked for some cake and i asked if it was gluten free, The reply was a shrug of the shoulders I do not know I bought if from the shop was her reply. We will not be visiting the singing kettle again. And to be honest reading some of the reviews I will be surprised if it is still trading in a few months.

Visited this tea room again this year as when we visited last year we had a very good experience. However, we quickly came to notice that the place had been taken over by new owners because of the difference in service. The service was very slow despite the lady behind the counter trying her very best to be pleasant and friendly. Our drinks arrived approx 10 mins after ordering despite it being very quiet. Then a man who came in after we had ordered received his cream tea first. I had nearly finished my drink when I went up to check where our cream tea was after half an hour. However, the cream tea was nice but unfortunately because of the service we will not be returning anytime soon.

My wife and I visited this lovely Tea Room twice within three days for breakfast, the welcome was warm and friendly. The breakfast was very well presented and very tasty. The staff where attentive without being over bearing. I can't thank them enough and highly recommend them.

Lovely staff, very friendly and attentive. We had the cream tea which would come with 4 finger sandwiches, 1 scone, and tea/coffee (for one person). The man swapped my coffee for a milkshake which was handy. The food was very tasty and good quality, however, the portion sizes were small. The scone was fairly small, the cream and jam were in one tiny pot each between two of us (could have done with a pot of cream and a pot of jam per person), and the sandwiches lacked good presentation. The finger sandwiches were scrumptious but were not cut properly and seemed a little rushed. Possibly would return though as we did enjoy the lunch!

Scrumptious food myself and my girlfriend paid a visit on Thursday 22nd August 19 , Total chaos when trying to order food the Thai Woman mixed our order up not once but twice luckily the kitchen were able to sort it out for her,If it hadn’t been for such a lovely sandwiches and lovely warm scones which were all home-made we would not of stayed.Well done to the kitchen but you need to sort out front of house very bad organisation with people working behind the till not knowing what they’re doing!

I have previously reviewed the singing kettle as 5*. We have come many times when visiting family and this time bought my aunt to see the wonderful cafe. However today the food took ages to come, then our orders were wrong. The majority of the food was either overcooked or undercooked and none of the orders were right. We saw many other tables having the same problem. Despite the fact the order had been read out to us and checked.

Lovely, welcoming, friendly staff and really lovely food. Thank you for being so kind and attentive with our two young children. Very tasty, fresh food in a lovely location, we'll definitely be back on our next visit to Torquay.

We visited on a soggy wet Friday with 2 lively children, and two requiring gluten free food, and were delighted to be well received. The cream teas were excellent - lovely warm fresh scones, pot of hot loose leaf tea and extra water and the children had hot chocolate and marshmallows and chocolate brownies. Owners / staff were great and so friendly . I would love to revisit. Thank you.

We paid two visits to the Singing Kettle, the first was motivated by wanting to find shelter from the rain, the second was motivated by the first visit. Had a lovely Devon Cream Tea, beautiful hot scones, clotted cream and jam. Tea from a pot, made with leaves, a dying art these days. Friendly staff, lovely location, prompt and efficient service. Would highly recommend.

My caveat here is that new owners take over in a day or so. Things should change!

We were staying nearby and needed to find somewhere to eat lunch. We first visited this cafe on the the same day we arrived and continued to visit almost the entire week we were staying in Torquay. Although we called mainly for lunch, they also serve Full English breakfast and cakes. There is also a gluten-free menu. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and nothing was too much trouble. PLUS all the cakes available are made on the premises. Outside seating is also available. I really have to say that I think you would have difficulty finding a better-run place for breakfast/lunch/afternoon tea.

Just recently been diagnosed with gluten intolerance I was worried I'd never be able to ear out. I googled gluten free in torquay and found this cafe. It didn't disappoint. Had a lovely gluten free sausage sandwich and cream tea. The scones were delicious. Will hopefully return next time I'm in torquay

Nice setting just off Torquay seafront

We were staying in Goodrington and made sure to stop by here for brekkie on our last day. There's a public car park nearby so no problem parking. The produce is of very good quality and cooked very well so we all had a very enjoyable breakfast. The staff are friendly and efficient and the prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back on our next trip to the Torbay area.

called in for cream tea lovely fresh scones jam and cream .tea was tea leaves came with little tea strainer and pot of hot water really enjoyed it will call again if in the area

We were on a weekend away with the dog and needed somewhere dog friendly to go for breakfast. A quick google search and this was one of the first options that came up. On arrival we were seated quickly and straight away asked if we wanted a bowl of water for our dog. The full English breakfasts was excellent and the dog even got given a biscuit too.

My family and I visited this lovely tea room for some lunch.

Beautiful little place. Friendly staff who enquired several times if everything was good. To which we replied yes wonderful.

Very friendly and speedy service, food not adventurous but nicely made and presented. Very accommodating towards my dog who was offered water and biscuits, a welcome find in Torquay. For non-doggy people do not be put off, there's plenty of room for well behaved dogs to be unobtrusive.

Used trip advisor to suggest best place for a Cream Tea and up popped this little Gem. Staff were extremely courteous, friendly and helpful and the cream tea was to die for. If you are in Torquay and want to sample some lovely home made scones then this is the place for you.

Just finished the Jungle Crazy golf with the children and wanted somewhere for lunch. Saw this place and thought would give it a try. Took Grandma, and children (8+10yrs). Pleased to say that a great range of good available, all good quality and lovely staff. Recently been advised to try gluten free, and luckily this place had lots of options, including a range of cakes. Will definitely return when visiting the area again.

Brilliant! So friendly staff and service so good! Scones and jam best ever that we have tasted!! Owner stopped and chatted with us a lovely personal touch

Went for a walk with my friend and outer 2 Staffie dogs, made very welcome great homemade food lovely owners made my friend, me and our dogs very welcome

Great breakfasts, and a good cuppa. Everything prepared to order. Staff all friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble.

Breakfast served quickly and hot service very good overall great value for money check their Menu etc on line.

Marlene & the team run the best tea room in the bay, always a friendly smile & great service/food. V.Very gluten free friendly for those that need, top marks all round. Will definitely use The Singing Kettle as the go to place for breakfast & the like from now on

Not been able to visit the kettle for over a year but had some free time this morning so called in for the cooked breakfast. Apart from being excellent value, the breakfast was cooked to perfection. Great service and always met with a smile. I can't imagine there is a better breakfast such a short stroll from the seafront. Highly recommended and I won't leave the next visit so long. I also managed to fit in one of the home made fit rolls which was amazing! Home cooking at its very best

As tourists we weren't watching the time and stumbled into the singing kettle. Instead of saying we're closing now, they were only to happy to serve us. The soup and cheese scone we had were wonderful. We weren't being rushed and the fantastic service and friendly nature continued. We'll definitely go there again, and it's only minutes from the seafront.

This is our go to Tea Room. Always a friendly warm welcome. We have not found anywhere to match this in Torquay. I am gluten intolerant and they always have a great selection of gluten free breakfasts and cakes. Everything is made freshly to order and they are always willing to accommodate any special requests where they can. If you visit don’t forget to try their signature cake, it’s to die for. Visiting again today.

Visited cafe as needed somewhere to eat quickly on a Sunday. Ordered two cold sandwiches. After an hour and no sign of food, enquired and was rather rudely told that the order was only taken 15 minutes ago. After another 10 minutes food arrived. 4 staff in kitchen stodd gassing. If you are going to make hungry people wait so long as least don't get rude when they expect more. Gave up.

Visited today with the family wow highly reccomend. They do the most deliciouse gluten free scones and cater for vegans. Friendly service wonderful helpful staff.If your in Torquay its a must to visit.😁

We visited Paignton for the weekend as a family (and a dog!) and visited this cafe in Torquay (just a short drive up the road).

Spoilt for choice, literally -- a good selection of special diet foods, my interest as a Coeliac, being Gluten Free.

Called in for breakfast as id missed out at the hotel I was staying in. £8 for a full English with toast and a drink. Good value, nicely cooked and presented. Not the biggest cooked breakfast youll ever see but it did the job. The place was clean and tidy.

Dropped in by chance late Sunday afternoon while visiting the area. We were greeted with a warm welcome and despite the fact it was very near closing time were made feel we had plenty of time to relax and enjoy.

We visited this twice in 2 days as I had previously read on trip advisor that they did cream teas for diabetics. On our 1st visit just had omelette salad & pot of tea each. Proprietors are very friendly and genuinely interested whether you are enjoying your visit to Torquay. I asked about diabetic cream tea to be told no notice was required as she bakes them on a daily basis. So was quite pleased about that returned the next day after checking out of our hotel. And enjoyed a diabetic cream tea with diabetic strawberry jam 1 plain & 1 fruit Scone which I must say it tasted just as good as ordinary cream tea. At least next time I am in Torquay will definitely be returning. Thank you for making my visit complete.

Our family loved this place, the food was tasty and value for money. A real home from home cosy tearoom/cafe, serving great homemade food, fantastic selection, and they cater for all food choices (meat lovers, vegetarians and vegans) and most allergies/intolerances (wheat, gluten etc). We liked it so much we went back the next day and ordered take out lunch to go as we had to catch the train. The service was lovely, very friendly and very quick.

We arrived on a Friday, mid - day , and looking for a simple lunch we headed here as it is opposite our hotel . Food & service were really good , and subsequently, we called in to collect some wholesome sandwiches for our journey home on the train.

Stopped here this afternoon with friends for a light bite to eat and was very impressed with our sandwiches and omelette and to top it off proper tea 😋very friendly staff and atmosphere In The tearooms On list for a return visit

I visited this place with my freind, it was light bright and airy not far from the sea front a Torquey the no 22 bus drops you right outside, I ordered poached eggs on toast and a side of mushrooms, my freind ordered similar but without the mushrooms, it came out hot poached eggs done to perfection presented perfectly, we had tea for 2 which was made with Tealeaves, the old way it was very refreshing you had a strainer also and extra pot of hot water to adjust to your strength and milk all condiments on the table , sauces are offered, it is a homely and welcoming atmosphere , staff are very polite and make u feel like family, their are many varieties of hot and cold food, they cater for special occasions and you can purchase or order on line little Devon scones with all the trimmings, would recommend a visit. I didn’t take a photo of the food as it was gone before I wrote this delicious

This is the second time we have visited for breakfast. This is a wonderful cafe right off Torquay beach front - dog friendly to the truest extent. Our dog is offered her own water bowl upon arrival.

The Singing Kettle is located towards the Town Centre end of Torre Abbey sands and about 100 yards from the beach along Belgrave Road. It is a medium size café and I decided to go for the Cream Tea although it served a very good selection of snacks and meals. The two scones (cherry and fruit) I had were warm from the oven and there were generous amounts of jam and cream, with a pot of leaf tea and some hot water to top it up. Excellent value.

A beam of sunshine on a rain day in Torquay. The best full English I’ve ever had and lovely scones with clotted cream. Nice cosy family atmosphere, even a Christmas tree and a fire, just what the doctor ordered

We visited this place when we were recently in Torquay, must say it was a delight lovely little tearoom, very friendly staff and yummy homemade cakes and the cream teas are delicious. Even though we don’t need special food this place catered for everyone which we thought was very good... lovely location not far from the beach. Would certainly recommend it.

In our recent stay in Torquay we went to the Singing Kettle 3 times. Situated just off the sea front next to the Belgrave Sands Hotel this cafe does a tasty selection of food and drinks in a genial atmosphere. We had a coffee break, a lunch and a cream tea all of which were of a high standard. No packaged defrosted items here and all prepared on site and made up to order. Try it.

We took our grandaughters aged 12 & 10 for a cream tea recently, definitely the nicest scones, plenty of jam and cream, very nice friendly atmosphere, we all voted this charming cafe a hit and will be returning in the next half term for more of their tasty scones

popped in for a coffee and scones in this pretty little café just off the beach here in Torquay. Really lovely location with right outside the best tourist attraction by far, wonderful old charabancs from 90 yrs old beautifully restored and giving fab trips around the area. Go for a trip and return or the other way around and have a tasty treat of scones, fruity ,plain or special of the day, apple and cinnamon, beautiful. Light lunches and all really well done here. A perfect little place for a tasty treat in a friendly happy place.

I love this family run cafe - I've been a few times now when I have business in Torquay. They have a plug socket in the corner table so I can get some work done. Lovely staff - I once realised they'd stayed open 20 mins late so I could finish my pot of tea (loose leaf!). The food is all freshly cooked and reasonably priced: children, veggie, vegan and gf friendly! Thank you to all the staff for always making me feel welcome.

Decided to call in for lunch and a coffee, the staff were friendly, however the food was disappointing and the coffee cold, and it was quite expensive. We had sandwiches and found the bread a little stale and the side salad consisted of one quarter of a manky tomato, a slice of cucumber halved, some mixed lettuce which had seen better days, wilted and yellow and a teaspoon of coleslaw. The cappuccino was stone cold and powdery. For what we paid as well seemed very pricey too, hasten to said we won’t be visiting again.

Staff are friendly, lots of places to sit inside or out, range of products to eat or choose from, quick and easy service. As we had scones and they were soft and lush as you can just get your knife though a straight cut. Tea is freshly done as you can do it yourself through a strainer. Overall great Experince, go back their every time we go to Torquay.

A visit to the Singing Kettle should be a must. Simply the best cream tea ever! Brilliant service and fantastic food

I stopped here with my family and our dog for lunch and scones. It’s a small family run cafe and the food and staff were wonderful. My daughter and I had homemade soup and scones and the rest of my family had Welsh rarebit, sausage sandwiches and ham eggs and chips followed by scones. I can’t recommend this lovely place enough. Great food and great staff we’ll be back next time we are in Torquay.

always visit this cafe everytime we visit torquay

Wonderful friendly service. Very dog friendly. Fantastic gluten free menu. Love coming here every time we visit Torquay for a gluten free English breakfast.

The Singing Kettle Tea Room and Eatery is not only very dog friendly but also delightfully quaint serving a good array of gluten free goodies. Highly recommended for both gluten free and gluten eaters.

Clean little cafe with nice food but ordered tea which came with milk already in it and very weak so asked at counter for another tea bag as my tea was to weak (I do like a nice strong cuppa) I was told it was not a tea bag but loose tea ok fair enough but no offer to replace my cuppa so Sat back down then waiter came and asked if everything was ok I said the tea was to weak again no offer to replace it

Very nice friendly staff, dog friendly. Excellent cup of tea and nice lunch. We will certainly visit again. John M and family.

The family and dog visited following previous recommendations and were not disappointed! The cream teas were scrumptious- probably the best scones we’ve ever eaten! The dog was also welcome, which was one of the main reasons for choosing this place. From the taking of the order to the minute we left the cafe the whole experience was great. Heartily recommended and will definitely go back next time we are in this part of the country.

Went in as seen this on tv Alex polizzi programme couple years ago was served by Clive very pleasant attentive friendly chap. Home made scones and thick Devon clotted cream complimented with pot of tea. We had a couple of cream teas whilst visiting Torquay but this was the best.

What a delightful little place. Came for lunch with my family and must say the food was delicious. All prepared fresh to order. Lovely staff too. Would definitely recommend

Had a lovely breakfast with my family, would highly recommend, food was spot on and very nice people, will definitely be returning tomorrow

We came upon this lovely cafe while on holiday. There was a seperate gluten free menu. I had an afternoon tea consisting of one of the nicest gf breads I have tasted, and absolutely delicious cream tea, with a loose leaf pot of tea. It was so lovely we visited for the last two days of our holiday. The staff/owners so lovely and friendly too.

Well what can I say about the singing kettle tea rooms well it’s more than a tea room all food and cakes our cooked on the premises fresh they only use the best products you can tell by the taste it’s run by the family and they are always friendly you got to try there home made cream teas the scones are the best in Torquay by far

Came here for a cream tea on Sunday morning . It was delicious . Really enjoyed the scones fresh out the oven .

Had a sandwich and tea - gorgeous!! Was very tempted by the Devon Cream Tea but just didn't have the room!!
