The best restaurants in Goodrington-with-Roselands Torbay South West

Saturday 11th November. 18 degrees, sunshine and blue sky. So managed to get a lovely ice cream from here as well as drinks, (lovely hot chocolate) and a festive sausage roll - which felt strange in the warmth, Lol. Perfect food, ice cream and drinks.

Tables were sticky,so i asked staff to wipe it down but they were still sticky even after they had! ordered the prawn salad,paid for it then was told 5 minutes later they had no prawns i was really disapointed and wondered why it was so hard to have enough prawns in the kitchen. so i asked for just the salad that was a very sad dish hardly any salad for £13.95 with bits of the end of an onion maybe they had run out of onions as well? i had ( instead of the missing hard to find prawns ) olives and bread, the olives was just cheap nasty black olives and not that many and a larger small dish of way too much cheap olive oil, bread was ok though Staff looked bored & unfriendly and the place was empty,they turned another two customers away saying they did not have what they ordered either,the owner/chef/cook/manager or what ever he is looked like he really did not wont to be at work running his buiness on a sunday at 2pm maybe he was just having a bad day but it put me in a mood spoilt my visit i would not reccomend to my friends and family it was a waste of our time and money My partner had the monkfish and chips which he has renamed gonkfish as it wasnt anything special and the chips were frozen for 15.95 it was hardly value for our money. We decided to visit the sea shack as the reviews seemed pretty good however our experience was nothing like what was stated

Lovely chi latte and a sausage for the dog

Amazing food and very welcoming staff. Only complaint would be OMG huge portions lol 😆 😂 I had the toots with steak ends was amazing. Hubby had loaded fries, he said they were the best he's ever had. Little girl had ham egg and chips, she's not a big eater but pretty much cleared her plate. She had ice cream after that and didn't stand a chance, but did make one of your waiters laugh when he came to ask if everything was ok and she said "my ice-cream is too cold" lol 😆 myself and hubby shared the 10 donuts with sauce and once again amazing. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and checking if little girl was ok when she started crying (was enjoying one of our donuts and bit her tongue). Will definitely return next time we are around paignton.

Nice location, friendly service but awful coffee - tasted like hot milk and water.

So I can’t bring my dog in so I sit outside in the covered area that is full of sh&t and people smoking when they aren’t supposed to??!? Think you need to do some housekeeping.

Didn't get to stop here for fish and chips 🍟 but in the past probably the best I've ever had to eat

Been there 4 or 5 times staff are very friendly and helpful food is really good so will be paying it another visit ty to the new management team ty from RAB %PAT

Apart from visiting to see the animals the restaurant is my only second reason to visit

Very sad as i have used this place for years and always very good my last 2 out of 3 home deliveries have arrived very late and been very cold and inedible i wont be using them again for some time

Kabab last night, meat was just about warm, last night’s idea of salad was lettuce and onions, not a tomato, cucumber or chilli in sight.

Staying in Paignton and decided to get a family takeaway from Alan’s. Found a hair in my chow mein. The chow mein had rice noodles, courgettes, baby sweetcorn and a mushroom in it - never had this in a chicken chow mein before. Avoid - not the best.

Visited on Wednesday morning and had 2 breakfast baps and a sausage for our dog Dylan which was 80pence . Good quality food and a perfect view of Goodrington . It was such a pity it was closed on Friday morning .

Friendly staff on entry given a tracker device to tell me when my order was ready, not sure why when there were only 2 of us in the place on a week day night an hour into opening time. The order didn’t take long, the alert on the tracker didn’t go off until my order was served up bagged & on the counter ready to take away. Good service you may think but clearly not when I got home & saw the state of the food !! Large chips ….. I beg to differ chips were hardly warm & I only live within 3 min drive from the shop. They looked burnt or if they had been open at lunch time I’d have said reheated they were just awful. It was at the start of the evening either The worse food I’ve tasted in a long while needless to say will not be returning & wouldn’t recommend. Food in the bin should have taken a picture first.

Had a lovely Sunday carvery as usual Served by the famous chef Moses such a asset to this establishment Thank you Moses from the King and Queen
