The best restaurants in Berry Head-with-Furzeham Torbay South West

We visit Brixham every year and always see this place when going to The Manor but never dared to go in as we didn't feel we knew enough about wine. However this year we decided to be brave boys and go in! SO SO glad we did! We both tried mystery wine flights and were honest that we would not be able to tell the grapes or countries, just which ones we likes. The owner was exceptional, he guided us on the wines, explained why we might like some and not the others, reccomended other wines to try based on the ones we liked and at no point made us feel "stupid" for not knowing the ins and outs of wine tasting etc. He reccomended a book to us which we have already ordered. The food is fantastic, just perfect to go with a bottle of wine or two, especially the manchego! We left very happy and with a bag full of goodies from the deli section along with a bottle of wine. CANOT WAIT to go back!!!! Thank you!

Having experienced Richard and Angela’s previous restaurant in Exeter we really wanted to visit their new venture in Brixham. The first thing to say is The Chart Room is the most wonderfully unique environment in which to enjoy an evening meal. Covered in all kinds of maritime memorabilia from floor to ceiling (including the toilet) it is the ideal setting for a harbour town such as Brixham. The attention to detail doesn’t stop there though. The tables are laid just right, the cutlery and glasses are spotless and as a front of house host Angela is simply an expert. Both welcoming and attentive (but certainly not in an intrusive way) everything is done to make your dining experience a relaxing and pleasurable evening to remember. Of course, even with right setting, atmosphere and clientele a restaurant will either stand or fall on the quality of the food served. Have no fears - Richard is clearly nothing short of a culinary genius. The passion he has for his craft shines through - the presentation of the dishes are first class, the food is cooked to perfection and the taste…WOW!! We traveled approximately an hour each way to get to Brixham solely to visit this establishment and we certainly will be doing so again. No doubt on several occasions. You really can’t get any better than this.

Unfortunate turn of events, waited an hour watched others eat, to be informed chef not well. They closed the cafe , staff were terrific, full apologies, free donuts to take away no charge for drinks while waiting. The staff couldn’t have been more polite and remained calm not showing stress at having to close. These things happen

We have been several times and cannot fault a thing. Drinks, food, Customer Service is impecable. Food dishes are all made to requirements (spice, garlic etc). Ambience is delightful. Thank you Claire and team. As always amazing

Absolutely amazing place Great service and the food is to die for

We come here once a year on our annual trip to this area, and have always felt it is the best fish and chips we've had. This time, however, was really disappointing. I don't know if the management/chef has changed, but the grilled fish was reported very bland, when in previous years, it had been a perfectly cooked delight, the two fried fish and chips were reported good, but not great, but the real disaster was the vegan burger- now, I know this a fish restaurant, but, people obviously go here with people who are vegetarian- there was one single vegie option, which was this burger, so I took it and it was awful; the weirdest patties I have ever tasted, plus a bun toasted so rock hard it was inedible. The chips and onion ring were good though. It's a shame, in previous years there have been several veggie options, including a really good curry and halloumi, etc. Overall , the whole menu appears to have gone downhill and at close to £20 for fish and chips, you'd expect better.

Blimey! Well we certainly didn't expect that. Popped in for a rather impromptu date lunch on the recommendation of a colleague from Brixham and what can we say. Everything from the view to the staff to the food and drink was exceptional. Really attentive and relaxed staff (who deserved a much bigger tip NGL!!) and the food was sublime. Left feeling so full up we didn't eat anything else for the rest of the day! Couple less potatoes for me next time! Thanks again Shoals we'll be back next time after a dip in that chilly looking lido lol! 🤣👌🏼🤌

Incredibly friendly, fantastic view, and food that nourishes just what the soul needs after a coastal walk (chips, coffee, and a pint). Thank you and will be back soon!!

What a gem! There’s many of places to choose from. We choose this and so glad we did. Excellent food, good prices. Friendly staff snd great service 👍

Visited recently. We ordered a goats cheese and onion chutney sandwich to share, which I believe was £10.85. When the order came it was literally two side plates with half a sandwich on each plate, no crisps or side salad. Nice sandwich but very expensive I thought for what we received. Nice coffee

Popped in early Sunday evening, it was quite so there was no problem finding a table. We chose to sit outside on the terrace. Service was very good and the food was delicious.

Attend a wedding reception at bistro in October, what a fantastic place. The food and the sevice was outstanding . The view from the bistro is amazing and it made for a perfect setting the wedding reception . The staff work tirelessly thought the whole evening and nothing was too much trouble. I highly recommend you visit this place if your in the area.

Wow!!!! Unfortunately we hadn’t booked, but they very kindly found a space to fit the three of us in!!! The service was fantastic, but the food, amazing!!! Great selection from fresh fish to pizza’s, they cater for everyone….. I have to say, please try the chicken pie, absolutely stunning!!! Everything fresh, couldn’t fault anything, the cakes and gateau’s as you walk in, starts you off with the thought of,” let’s get the main course out of the way, I want all of those!!”, my family went with the pizzas and there was nothing left, clean plates!! Great atmosphere, lovely friendly staff, nothings too much trouble, and the food is excellent!! Really look forward to trying other things on the menu…….
