Pubs and Bars Torquay

Pubs are a staple of British life and can make a good holiday into a great holiday. Luckily, there’s no shortage of pubs and bars in Torquay, all ready to offer a warm Devonshire welcome alongside your pint. From chic harbourside bars where you can watch the boats bobbing on the water as you sip some fizz to traditional watering holes serving real ales, there’s something to suit every taste and wallet.

Pubs and bars in Torquay with a sea view

For many of us, that perfect holiday moment comes when we hold a glass of our favourite tipple whilst gazing out across a sandy beach and blue sea. Get into the Latin spirit and enjoy a delicious cocktail or draft Brazilian beer at Las Iguanas, in the popular new Abbey Sands area of Torquay. Or walk along the promenade to the harbour and while away the hours at Offshore Bar. Here you can be entertained by live music and sample real ales or classic cocktails. There’s also a menu if you’re felling peckish and plenty of outside seating so if the weather is warm you can enjoy it all al fresco.

Pubs and bars in Torquay for history lovers

As well as the perfect place for a rest, many of our pubs and bars in Torquay are also a great place to visit to find out more about our local history. For example, The Hole in the Wall, which is tucked away in a side street behind the harbour, is considered to be the oldest pub in Torquay, dating back to c.1540. Once believed to be the haunt of smugglers, it has a cobbled floor and low beamed ceiling that exudes olde worlde charme. You can choose from a selection of beers, lagers and local ales as well as wine and spirits. And best of all, you can consider your visit an essential part of finding out more about the history of the local area!

Independents and chains

You’ll find plenty of pubs and bars from your favourite chains in Torquay, including The Green Ginger Wetherspoon pub in Fleet Walk and Marston’s pub The Bull and Bush. At these you know what to expect. But don’t forget about our independent, family-run pubs and bars either, like the Devon Dumpling or The Kents.

Pubs and bars in Torquay with added entertainment

If you love your music, try The Rock Garden in the centre of Torquay. Here you’ll find tribute artists singing everything from pop to Motown on the pub’s own stage. When the sun is shining, grab a jug of Pimms, sit back and enjoy. Or for something a bit different, go to The Blue Walnut. This licensed café bar hosts performance poetry readings and live music evenings. There’s even a 23 seat cinema. Find it in Walnut Road, in the smart Chelston area of Torquay.

Whether your looking for a pub or bar in Torquay to visit with a group of friends, or want something a bit more intimate for two, check through our listings to find the right place for you.
