Places to Eat Torbay

What’s the all-important secret ingredient to enjoying the perfect break? Finding the perfect place to eat of course. From exquisite fine dining to locally-made ice-cream by the beach, you’ll find plenty of options to suit every taste and budget when you look for restaurants in Torbay.

Romantic restaurants in Torbay

Torbay is the ideal spot for a little romance. You can take a moonlit stroll along Torquay’s illuminated seafront promenade or admire the far-reaching views on Babbacombe Downs together. Whether you’re celebrating a special anniversary or just being together, there are also plenty of places to eat in Torbay that are guaranteed to impress. Why not treat a loved one to afternoon tea in the elegant surroundings of Torquay’s Grand Hotel? Or push the boat out with a celebratory meal at The Elephant. This Michelin-starred restaurant offers both formal and more relaxed dining options. You’ll enjoy creative cuisine crafted from fresh, local produce that you and your partner are bound to fall for.

Laid-back bistros by the beach

When you think of the English Riviera you think of long sandy beaches and the azure blue sea. Picture postcard perfect, it’s a view you can never grow tired of. You can make the most of it when you book Torbay restaurants that are located right on the beach. There’s no need to rush away from Goodrington Sands at teatime. Instead, sit back in your flip-flops and enjoy the relaxed menu including pasta and pizza at The View at Goodrington. Or enjoy the chilled Mediterranean atmosphere at Three Degrees West on Oddicombe Beach. Looking out cross the beach and sea, you can enjoy coffee and cakes, ice cream or a meal on the terrace. And when the weather is less than perfect you can cosy up and watch the waves through the floor to ceiling windows in the dining room.

Where to eat in Torbay for the best seafood

Torbay is known as England’s Seafood Coast. The high quality fish and shellfish landed in Brixham finds its way to some of the best dining tables across the UK and Europe. And our local cafes and restaurants get to take their pick too. Even the humblest takeaway is likely to be serving up freshly caught Brixham fish with their chips. The abundance of fine ingredients has drawn many top chefs to the region, including Mitch Tonks, and you’ll find his Rockfish restaurants in both Torquay and Brixham. Beamers in Brixham is another seafood speciality restaurant worth investigating or try No7 Seafood Bistro overlooking the harbour in Torquay.

Places to eat in Torbay with the family

If you can drag your kids away from the beach, you can wow them with another side of Devon life – the countryside. At Occombe Farm Café they can meet the farm animals, including ducks, lambs, and alpaca. There’s a playground and even a vintage tractor to sit on. Then head into the café for a tasty selection of local food. Under 10s get their own special, great value menu too, so everyone will be happy.

From international cuisine to family favourites, search places to eat in Torbay to find the perfect restaurant for your perfect break.
