Worst breakfast in ivybridge. On the face of it , it looks ok until you taste the poor quality goods. Cheap sausage, cheap baked beans , egg smothered in oil, horrible brown sauce. £1 extra for ONE slice of bread and butter.At this price range (£8.50) they could use quality products and still make profits. First and last meal there. Better options only 2 mins away.

My favourite place for lunch in the area, well priced and great service. Lots of tables to sit inside and out, good for a snack or just a cup of tea. Far better than some of the overpriced cafes in the area.

My first visit here for lunch recently which was really very nice. Made to feel most welcome and a very tasty lunch enjoyed. Superb little side salad, fresh and colourful. Look forward to my next visit. Thankyou.

Linked to the library and entertainments complex run by Ivybridge council this is a great place to sit and relax over a coffee (not forgetting the delicious cakes!). Really friendly and ever helpful staff. A real delight!

A local cafe with reasonably priced lunches, cake, hot and cold drinks. Based at the entrance to the library and bottom of the Watermark Theatre. Gluten free cakes available and jacket potatoes if needing a winter warmer.

A very popular spot in the town. Part of the library and Watermark complex. Good for a coffee or tea.

Lovely chairs, lovely coffee, good price. Looking forward to going back for more. Less than £2 for coffee.

Went for a group Christmas supper. Not cheap. The ambience was as charming as eating in a sports hall - no effort made to make it cosy - tables laid out like a business meeting, The service was awful and the food indescribable poor. Haven't had yellow wet sprouts since I was at school. Not enough veg. My veggie main course was like a trainer insole and came out cold / my cheese came plonked in a plate still in plastic with a price on it. It was memorably shudderingly awful and was about £18.50 a head.

Our good friend held her 'Significant' birthday in one of the reception rooms available. There was plenty of space for the 60 odd guests, and the staff were quick to find an extra table when needed. (The only negative on this was they couldn't find a tablecloth!!!) The food supplied was plentiful and well presented. The bar was a bit small, and only had an 'Irish' stout on tap. However the service from 'Alex' was quick and she was a very pleasant and well presented young lady. The community in and around Ivybridge are lucky to have such a facility.

Been changed around a bit in recent times. The seating is rather hard and uncomfortable since the nice seating was removed. OK for a quick coffee during a shopping outing or visit to the adjoining library.

A valiant effort but a bit dull. Clean, modern but uninspired with a modest selection or routine food and not much if any thought to design/decor. Averagely priced. Steady polite service. Can involve a short wait for service and for a free table but at this time of year if you have a aware coat you can still sit outside.

Gewoon een goede kop koffie en een lekkere bak thee. Met een heerlijke framboos-citroen cake. Eenvoudig en goed.

It isn't the greatest location ... but that's about the only thing we cannot give points for. The tea, coffee, cakes, and also the music were great. Not too loud, just at the background so that conversation was well possible. And fair price for good products. And at the centre of the village, with free parking for up till two hours.

This was a surprising find and a great place if you want to meet up with friends over a quick hot chocolate or other hot drink. Really nice place, rather compact but nice. The staff are pleasant and very helpful.

Like many other people I often meet friends here for coffee. However, because I arrived so early last week I decided to have lunch first. Only one lady doing everything so the service was slow - although she was most apologetic and friendly. Not much choice but the toasted sandwich was ok and freshly cooked. Very busy throughout my stay, so is a popular place. I shall continue to go there for snacks and drinks but it's not really a venue to 'do' lunch!

Lovely little coffee shop to have a break & a chat, while visiting the library or other services & looking at what's on around Ivybridge.

Situate on the ground floor of the Watermark Centre this little café is a gem. Pleasant and friendly staff. Had coffee (latte £2) and biscuits although I noticed they did croissants, teacakes and muffins as well as a selection of chocolate biscuits. From the menu it looked like they did snacks as well such as sandwiches/paninis etc. Adjacent car park (Erme Court) is free for 2 hour stay and £1 for 3 hours. Also on the ground floor of the building was the library and upstairs an art gallery. Some tables and chairs outside as well.

One of the best experiences of eating out we’ve had ever! The food was perfection. I had the king prawn linguine- full of flavour and I could have eaten the whole dish again despite being happily full. My husband had the steak frites! Which he also said was one of the best meals he’s ever had out! We are regular foodies and have been to the most exquisite fine dining, Michelins star restaurants nationally and globally and dick and Wills was a new gem we have discovered. It will be hard to eat anywhere else when frequenting salcombe after finding dick and wills! Oh and the cocktails… outstanding! I have finally found my drink… l highly recommend the lychee martini if u like sweet cocktails. Go enjoy dick and wills - you’re welcome! 😊

We last ate here about 9 years ago; although the small dining room was quiet, pleasant, and with well spaced tables, we felt the food was 'just ok'. We didn't revisit until this year when prompted by a positive review in the Times. Due to parking problems, we were a bit late, and although we updated the restaurant, we were left in the rather unappealing little bar for quite a while, before being 'led' through to the dining room.... ....which was packed and noisy, with tables jammed really close together. The kitchen was knocking out tableful's of the set menu, and the bar was doing good business. Although the staff were pleasant, 'elegant' this was not. As one of us was driving, we ordered mineral water and a half bottle of white at around £27. This arrived in a carafe, not a half bottle, and was simply put on the table - we weren't shown the bottle or given any further info. Unwisely, we chose off the a la carte. The gnocchi were small and had been made with a heavy hand, resulting in a springy texture not unlike supermarket gnocchi. I asked who made them, thinking they'd been bought in; the answer was 'the chef'. The amount of gnocchi compared to sauce and egg yolk was disproportionately small, and would have been better eaten with a spoon. My main choice was brill cooked al forno - my favourite fish. This was served whole, grey skin up, and warm, not hot. Although the brill was cooked through, there was no sign of any crispness or coloration from the grill at all, and a complete lack of texture. The lack of texture was exacerbated by a sweet, very liquid tomato sauce with small cubes of dull red tomato - and absolutely no acidity - which had been poured over the whole fish. My partner's hake was better, but she commented that it was a very small portion of fish, and plated with the nicely browned side underneath (?). The simple sides were good, but at £6.50-£7, they should be. The people next to us were loudly effusive about their lunch, so perhaps we are not The Seahorse's target market - or maybe we should have stuck to the £35 lunch menu. And for us, there were too many tables in what is a relatively small space. But they make a big deal of their fresh seafood and their 'passion' for Italian cuisine. Sadly, it wasn't demonstrated in the cooking quality or the presentation.

Excellent food and location overlooking the harbour in the Crab, themed restaurant. Not very big can be busy so booking, even for a lunchtime out of holiday season recommended.
