The Strand Cafe in Teignbridge - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had Sunday breakfast here in early September and it was excellent. We sat on the terrace opposite the main cafe with a view across the harbour which was ideal. Good menu. Prompt, friendly, efficient service. Reasonably priced given its location etc.. Definitely would return.

If you're in Shaldon you need to go to the best... Nice decor....feels very English....nice background music played...friendly staff....quality food....all round top class!

Lovely little cafe by the seaside, stopped by for a cream tea which was prepared nicely with the scones still hot. Atmosphere was lovely, place nicely decorated. There was quite a queue for the one toilet they had, but unlikely to change. Staff were nice and attentive.

Great gluten-free breakfast of eggs, avocado, and smoked salmon on toast. Seemed a little pricey, but well worth the money. Sat outside on patio with the dog.

Excellent brunch, well cooked and great service. Unusually good for a seafront café. Good coffee and a good selection of teas. Recommended.

Fabulous lemon polenta cake and a wonderful view!

Despite the beautiful waterfront location the food and service is excellent. So often venues take advantage of their location and the food suffers. Not the case with The Strand. The prices may be a tad on the high side, but this is Shaldon! 🇬🇧🇳🇿

Cute cafe, with a nice outdoor sitting area. I had a matcha latte, which was delicious. Staff was polite and friendly. The cakes looked good but I had just eaten, so I didn't have space, lol!

Bit pricey in comparison to cafes on the Teignmouth side of the river, but then that goes for Shaldon generally.

Best coffees we've had fir a while! Lovely setting and couldn't fault the service!

It wasn’t great. Slow service, bland food. Burnt bacon on dry pancakes. Not salt and pepper on the table…just really basic stuff. Would be ok for a coffee. But it’s just using it’s beautiful position as a way of getting people in and then offering basic food.

Lovely coffee shop / cafe, just across the narrow road from the brown red sand beach, giving terriffic views of Teignmouth, and the hills of nearby Dartmoor. We enjoyed pancakes, sweet for my wife, and savory for me, both really enjoyable. Excellent young staff, who were very helpful particularly to an elderly couple on the nearby table. Great food, equally happy atmosphere.

There is a lovely choice here- and I am a cake connoisseur! We shared a cheese tea and a slice of cake (almonds and red fruit). Nice to sit on the terrace and enjoy the view and the excellent service with a smile!

Really great latte with extra hot milk in case it was too strong, good size cup- so good value; delicious American style pancakes with bacon & maple syrup- lovely crispy bacon & plenty of maple syrup, with 5 pancakes + waiter brought glass of water over as well.

Friendly staff, good coffee, great views. Easy to park in the village for a couple of hours and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Absolutely love this cafe bistro! My husband Greg and I visited this morning( March 1st) and ordered two Croque Madam’s and a pot of English Breakfast tea The staff are so friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble I can honestly say that the Croque Madam was one of the best I have ever eaten, and beautifully presented with a delicious dressed salad garnish On a previous visit we had scones and butter which were also amazing Well done Strand Cafe….. a lovely experience all round

Lovely coffee but cake at £5.95 a slice is far far too expensive… that’s London prices in a small Devon village…

Cute little cafe with nice coffee and an amazing pear and pistachio tart. Nice outdoor seating area overlooking the river mouth

Only called in for a cappuccino whilst on a walk from Teignmouth over to Shaldon. A very pleasant welcome and at table service. Pleasant surroundings. The cappuccino was very nice. I didn't eat so unable to comment on the food.

We have visited Shaldon several times this year and always stop off in this charming cafe. Polite, friendly staff and fresh flavoursome food. We shared the Chicken ‘Banh Mi’ which is a chicken baguette marinated with oriental spice rub, ginger, garlic peppers and kaffir lime leaves. Tastes fresh and the oriental twist transforms a normal baguette into something different. We then shared a gluten free cream tea. I think this is the best gluten free scone I have eaten anywhere and as close to a standard wheat scone as I have found. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will always return whenever we find ourselves in or close to Shaldon.

We’ve discovered this gem during our holiday to Devon and ended up going back everyday! Great food and drinks, with a lovely atmosphere. The English breakfast is very good and they have some dishes with a twist on the menu, which is a nice change! The best matcha latte, chai latte and cherry pie tea infusion! Their playlist is good too! As are the cakes!! Highly recommend their signature pistachio and pear tart! The village is nice with lovely views as well- we will definitely go back!

We had an excellent snack lunch with coffee and tea The ladies enjoyed a Devonshire cream tea which they stated was excellent I enjoyed the bacon brioche bun The cheese scones were also great and too much to eat probably. We also enjoyed the coffee and tea.

This is a lovely café on the front at Shaldon. As it was my last day I opted for their cream tea. I was brought 2 slightly warm fruit scones with a pot of jam, a pot of clotted cream and a pot of real English Breakfast tea. There was plenty of choice on their menu and it all looked wonderful!

A nice cafe with a view over the water

We visited as a family, had a cream tea for two plus a few other bits - it was delicious! Service was great, a real hidden gem!!

Absolutely lovely!... Gluten free too! A gem of a tea shop with great views Thanks to all the friendly staff! Geoff & Lisa

Stopped for coffees. Lovely coffee and staff 😁

Beautiful view, not too crowded outside. Very good latte. Good cheese scone.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch at The Strand Cafe. The Asian fusion menu is a break from the norm. Hot smoked salmon salad was absolutely beautiful, an unusual blend of flavours but all worked perfectly together. Croc monsieur was fantastic as was the Devon Cheese Tea. Staff were friendly and attentive, facilities were clean and tidy. Only thing that I would feedback is it would be nice to add a couple of childrens options to the menu. My 3year old daughter had a cheese and ham croissant which was lovely but a sandwich option would be good and perhaps add Cucumber /carrot sticks instead of crisps on the side of child's option. Overall though a lovely and very memorable lunch, woukd definitely return.

A fabulous brunch, the staff are attentive, all the food is fresh, hot and delicious, poached eggs lovely and runny. Coffee and tea yummy.

Love this place great food great service and fantastic atmosphere a big plus our baby (goldendoodle) is allowed in as well.

Thank you for the amazing scones. Best scones we've had in a very long while. Great service. Wasps were a nuisance but not your fault.....

We visit this cafe a couple of times a year when in the area, sitting inside or out. This week we wanted the Mussels but not the garlic sauce. The Chef spoke to us and said he can make special sauce for us. Not only were these the best mussels we have had but the sauce was terrific. Well done to the chef and all the staff for making us feel welcome and special. We have been back twice this week since.

Had sandwich for brunch, others had the breakfast baps which looked good. Espresso was pretty good.

This is just an amazing spot on a nice day, we were blessed with warm sunshine on our visit and being able to enjoy a drink by the sea here was a delight. Very friendly and attentive staff a nice varied menu and some beautiful local soft drinks as well as a great selection of hot drinks. A great place to stop in Shaldon,

Lovely cafe. Great views outside, so best in fine weather.

The most incredible warm scones!!! The staff are really lovely and friendly. A definite must xxx

Very pleased to be offered a choice of tea to drink. I had Darjeeling with an Almond Croissant. Both were lovely (as were the drink and food of my companion). Highly recommended

Delicious cakes and coffees. The salad looked great too

Sat outside, eating fresh scones with clotted cream and jam, what could be better on a lovely day in Devon.

Good quality food. Definitely worth the money . Desert's are really good

Glorious view. Beautiful food. Friendly, welcoming staff.

Had a fabulous breakfast here this morning (20.4.23) very good value, quality ingredients cooked to perfection, with friendly and welcoming service. Highly recommend 👌

Terrible and over priced breakfast, I would have been disappointed if it was £5 but for £12.95 it’s just criminal. Do not eat here if you want a good English breakfast, you will regret it.

A lovely late lunch and the cheese toastie was amazing. Quick and friendly service. Will come again.

The staff and here are extremely pleasant, helpful and charming. We ordered the scones and tea for two which was two beautiful pots of tea and two scones with enough jam and cream for both these. I think our home-made scones and we had a variety of ones with sultanas and ones without the pot of tea does come as a variety we chose to have the English breakfast tea which consisted of 3 cups this quaint little Kath is situated on the main street as you come down in Sheldon near the ness pub. Just over the road you can also find the outdoor seating area which overlooks the sea.

Warm friendly welcome. Spotless cafe. Good menu selection. Good prices. Coffee delicious. Great view. Would recommend.

Great location, very good service.

Had a lovely lunch today. Not much sandwich options but the sandwiches were nice. Very friendly place and would highly recommend stopping here.

Excellent food and service!! Lovely place to have brekkie/brunch and even more. My wife and I had brunch here after a rather hilly run/walk around Shaldon. Food was great. Service was exceptional and it wasn’t too busy, but it was between Xmas and New Year, so advise to book ahead if you are here during the busy times.

it is a must go to place when in Shaldon. the food and service is excellent we will be back in 12 months time.

£7:50 for two takeaway Hot Chocolates......!!!! I know we are on holiday and Shaldon is lovely but please that is a little excessive. .My own fault I know, should have looked at the price prior to purchase. Certainly a lesson well learnt.

Afternoon tea and coffee on the terrace over looking the beach towards Teignmouth. Apple cake and cream to share. Service was top class, friendly staff, delivered to our table in minutes. Drinks hot and good, Apple cake was awesome. Prices pretty good. Would I visit again, I think it's a yes.

Lovely atmosphere and delicious food. Reasonably priced and good coffee. I had the Cheese Tea. The cheese scones were lovely.

Had the best cream tea deaffinatly going back

Lovely place to sit and have a light lunch,the service was excellent 👌 and also the food highly recommended

Caring waitresses and unusual tasty food in a super location. The pear tart is a droolingly experience.

Perfectly acceptable coffee sitting overlooking Shaldon Beach. Service was a little slow but may be due to staffing issues?

Good view and good food and friendly service.

The best cream tea, warm from the oven scones nom nom

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! It’s an awesome gem of Shaldon, lovely staff, excellent quality tasty food with a delicious cappuccino! Had the brunch it was so good! Highly recommend! Will return!! The children loved the breakfast baps, brownie and scones!

Lovely place over looking the sea

Amazing cream tea! Best scones I have ever eaten!

Tables reserved for invisible guests who are "parking there car" for 15 minutes!!! (The tables had not actually been reserved) Left customers to be standing around while they debate who they might want to serve..... Felt extremely embarrassed as the other customers watched this rediculus situation . Use your common sense or loose your business

Lovely setting in the garden ,good food ,good service

I had a croque monsieur which was lovely. Others had cheese scones and a croissant filled with ham and cheese. All well done with good service. Thank you.

What a fantastic place to have a late lunch, amazing menu, great drinks options, lovely staff and dog friendly. Definitely coming back here. Excellent.

A fantastic brunch, great service and lovely location. We stumbled across this fantastic little cafe between the Ness car park and the village centre.

Really good staff feels like I’m at a fancy place when they serve there brunches and cakes

Had an amazing lunch here today with beautiful views. The chef came out after we had eaten to see how our meals were , lovely personal touch. You could tell the chef was passionate about serving great quality/ tasting food :)

Lovely food, nicely cooked. Staff attentive and polite. Lovely place for lunch either overlooking the estuary or in the café. Crocque Monsieur, apple and parsnip soup and the best cheese scone my wife has ever had .. delicious 😊

While walking the South West Coastal Path after crossing the River Teign on the Ferry we stopped at The Strand Cafe for coffees and a bite to eat. Nice coffee and lovely Croque Champignons in a location overlooking the river. It was good to see...

Lovely little cafe! Went for lunch on a Sunday, it was quiet when we got there but busier when we left. Lovely to see walkers popping in for a coffee to keep them going! My husband got the ratatouille which was a special that day - it was brilliant! Very glad they had that special too as otherwise not sure what he’d have had (a veggie who’s not that fond of cheese) I got the brilliant Croque Monsieur which was lovely and nice to come with crisps and a small salad

Decide to pop in for coffee and cake. O M G seriously the best vegan cake I HAVE EVER TASTED: so soft, presented well, full of flavour. This is a hidden gem, loads of food options for vegan, vegetarian and gluten free. FRESH, HOMEMADE CAKES...

Really nice staff & lovely fresh food, perfectly cooked. Reasonable prices for the quality. Pretty view from the outside eating area

The breakfast bap (sausage, bacon and egg) we have ever had!! Good service too thank you. We also ordered a cream tea to take away which was still warm as we left. It was absolutely delicious! We would love to return to sit on the...

lovely location, good prices, awesome cake

Really lovely coffee at a reasonable price, but the cakes are rather expensive

Delicious food and lovely friendly service. The cakes looked good but we were too full so we’ll be back to try them. This is a really nice place and we enjoyed our lunch, especially nice as you get a view of the estuary.

We love to visit this little place for a brunch with the view. Good selection of home made pastries and cakes, small but smart menu with everything made from the scratch. We never had a bad meal here - always nice and pleasant. The gorgeous view is a bonus so don’t hesitate to grab a space outside whenever weather permits.

Lovely cafe, friendly staff, thoroughly recommend the vegetarian brunch, and a great selection of rather scrumptious looking cakes.

Very nice, well presented bistro quality food with optional outdoor seating. Excellent fried brunch.

Lovely place very welcoming food Lovely don't miss it when in Sheldon

Beautiful location overlooking the estuary. Good quality food, all seemed fresh, great tasting Earl grey tea. Efficient and friendly staff. Good range on menu.

We took advantage of the warm sunny weather to sit on the outside terrace with a beautiful view of the estuary. Great coffee, delicious ham and cheese croissant and warm homemade cheese scone. Staff are very welcoming and helpful.

Very nice but a bit limited menu

Ordered food at lunchtime, after 45 minutes noticed people coming in after us getting there's , asked waitress twice what happened to lunch, waitress said order had been lost would have to wait 20 minutes further for food. Not good enough won't be going back...

A last minute decision turned perfect! We had a wonderful lunch seating outside overlooking the river! Nice staff and good explanation of each dish

Second visit here in the last year. Never disappoints. We got the little ferry over from Teignmouth, went walking then came back for a delicious cream tea. We were lucky with the weather so could sit outside overlooking the water. Just perfect! The service was...

Staff are some of the nicest people iv had the pleasure of meeting.great food and service.

We visited this place with my elderly mother. Staff very polite and courteous. Helpful towards my mother. Food and drink were all good. Very clean. Worth a visit.

Great café with beachside garden area. Handy location by Teignmouth ferry landing point.

A short hop across the ferry to Shaldon and we happily found this place for a quick coffee and scones Lovely venue with terrific views Friendly staff A winning combination! Highly recommended.

Cosy little tea room but had outside seating too, friendly staff, clean, food good value for money and very tasty. Thank you.

This place is a little gem nestled in Shaldon, the food is incredible and I’ve always received the best service. Great selection of dishes and I’m sure you’ll find your favourite! Will always recommend this place and is a must go! P.S If you see the Ratatouille on their menu GET IT! It is such a hearty dish for those gloomy British days.

Really lovely Cream Tea. Delicious scones. Good service. Wonderful view across the estuary. Good value for money.

As a new local, I've been here a few times and recommended to visitors and never been disappointed with the cream teas, especially now we're back in crockery . Highly recommend.

Visited with my mum and partner on a beautiful sunny day and managed to get a table outside overlooking the beach, which was fabulous! My mum had the gruyere croissant and my partner had the sausage bun - which they both enjoyed. Unfortunately, there isn’t...

Gorgeous views, friendly staff and really tasty food, highly recommend

I have been here twice-once with my family, then solo with a baby. Friendly, but a little shy waitress, but very kind and helpful. Great, delicious, strong flat white. Outstanding scones, never had so delicious. Tasty milkshake. Prices absolutely normal, great place with stunning views....
