Welcome To The Kents

Using locally sourced food & quality real ales

Nestled at the base of the leafy Wellswood area in Torquay, The Kents is a family-friendly local pub with some of the best pub food in Torquay.

We are also featured in the English Riviera Eating Out Guide.

Less than one mile from Torquay’s harbour-side and the closest pub to Kents Cavern, this popular local pub offers a range of lunchtime and evening meals, Sunday roasts, real ales, wines by the glass and a full range of lagers.

Pull up a chair in our restaurant, recline on the cosy sofas or relax in the spacious beer garden (which is a perfect sun trap on a warm day); attentive and friendly staff will make you feel welcome.

Where Our Food Comes From

Our Head Chef, Steve Hoyle, sources his ingredient locally where possible.

We aim to source all our meat from the West Country, and we use a high-quality Devon butcher.

Our fish comes mainly from Brixham, and our mussels are from the River Teign, Teignmouth.

We get our fruit and vegetables from a local greengrocer

Steve and his team take pride in preparing all dishes here in our kitchen.

We even smoke our own meat, fish and cheese and make our own sausages on the premises.

Live Sports - The Kents shows all major BT Sports games on our big screen, including the Premier League, Champions League, Europa League and Aviva Premiership Rugby.
