Cocktail Bars

Just like our French cousins, the English Riviera is well accustomed to glamour and glitz. We have superyachts lined up in Torquay harbour that wouldn’t look out of place in Monaco. You can pick up a designer handbag and exclusive labels in our boutiques ready for a fabulous night out. And you’ll find classy cocktail bars all along the coast. Whether you’re looking for somewhere cosy and quiet or you’re ready to party the night away, here are our top tips on some of the best cocktail bars in Torbay.

Coco Torquay

Expect a relaxed Balearic vibe as you sip cocktails on the terrace at Coco Torquay. Dedicated to producing high quality cocktails, your hosts have a combined experience of 30 years as expert mixologists. As well as an impressive list of your favourite cocktails (and some you may not have tried yet) you’ll also find premium wine, spirits, and champagne on offer. With so much choice, you can be sure that everyone in your group can find something they’ll enjoy.

You’ll find Coco right on the seafront overlooking Abbey Sands beach and the glittering blue sea beyond. With the Princess Theatre just a few minutes walk along the promenade, this is the ideal spot to enjoy pre-theatre drinks. Be warned though, you might not want to leave!

Soho Lounge & Bar Torquay

If you’re looking for a big night out, head to Torquay’s Soho Lounge Bar. Here you’ll be tempted by around 80 contemporary cocktails as well as champagne, beer and fine wine. Resident DJs play their sets into the small hours so you can dance away night or relax on the bar’s terrace enjoying the fresh air and holiday atmosphere.

A short, level walk from the harbour, Soho is right in the centre of all the action. Start your evening here, end it here, or stay the whole time: the choice is yours. And when it is time to call it a night, you’ll find the taxi rank and bus stop just a few steps away.

Liberty Tea Parlour and Cocktail Bar Brixham

Refined and elegant, Liberty Tea Parlour and Cocktail Bar is also wonderfully quirky. In this relaxed, upmarket space you’ll find an expert team ready to mix up a range of inventive and beautifully crafted drinks. Get totally tropical with a classic pina colada or sample the range of artisan gins on offer. And if you’re designated driver, you can indulge in their range of delicious loose-leaf tea instead.

There are also tempting sweet treats to sample too (forget about ice cream, try their cake in a cone instead!). Easy to find next to the Old Market on the harbour in Brixham, this vintage-inspired bar is sure to make any get together with family or friends memorable.
