The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Torbay South West

Mostly a locals bar as that's their mainstay, but catering for tourists also as it's next to the car park and bus terminal. Nice atmosphere, decor and a decent pint.

I had a lovely cooked breakfast this .morning, well cooked and presented and piping hot. Will be coming here twice a week while the wife shops. What's not to like.

Breakfast choice a appalling. Considering they have a well stock M & S Food Hall downstairs. Rarely have a range of breakfast pastries, and M & S bake so many great pastries! Lucky if you’re able to get a plain croissant. Maybe they just want people to buy hot breakfasts? The service is painfully slow. Never sufficient staff. I would imagine this is why so many are not customer orientated and grumpy. I hasten to add this is not all staff. I do love their coffee and food, just need to widen the range, get more staff and speed up the system.

I have to say, this was the most interesting coffee stop I’ve experienced. Excusing the 80’s decor, which is quite comical and endearing in a Victorian seaside town, the set-up of this establishment is somewhat unique. On arrival there was no covid secure guidelines in place, no masks being work by staff, no sanitiser on arrival and no one way system. We ordered two cream teas, now, given we are in Devon, famous for fresh produce, pastry and good food, the last thing I expected was a microwaved scone as you watched. The score was supermarket bough, and yes microwaved (in case you didn’t read right first time) and the clotted cream, cheap thaw and serve. Equally the cheap Jam (from Brakes) was not what I expected. Come on, it’s a decent venue, put some effort into what your serve. For £5 tea and scone you could locally buy scones (sold at the bakery down the road) and buy some local cream or jam with provenance from one of the local food markets. Really could make more of an effort. On the plus side the cakes did look like effort had been made but didn’t try.

I thought we’d turned a corner having visited on a Saturday a few weeks back to find different staff, but midweek is back to the same abysmal service. They have an automated system, and if you don’t use it, the staff will quite cheerfully ignore you standing at the counter for 10 minutes, even an elderly gentleman on crutches. After finally being served, we sat for a further 20 odd minutes waiting for the food, which was stone cold when it arrived. I say arrived, but it was practically thrown at us. I can’t even describe how awful the service is in this place during the week. Rude, incompetent staff.

Food was good and reasonably priced, typical cafe menu and food. What’s sets this apart is the wonderful view from the terrace, we could have spent ages up there watching boats and jet skis in the sunshine

Been coming in here a fair bit lately.. A decent place to visit... Good atmosphere... Decent staff if you get a night when the good staff are on... Can't complain about the alcohol and very reasonably priced......

Following a lunch at Mark's and spencer torquay, I bought two cappuccinos for myself and a friend. Because the froth on top of cappuccino flattens and cools the drink, I asked for a jug of hot water to top them up. Disappointingly and surprisingly I was charged 90p for this! Come on M&S. Your coffees and food are not cheap. Paying 90p for hot water is very poor.
