Casual dining fish restaurant serving the best fish in Brixham hands down. Owned by a family friend who also has his own fish wholesale business based right here in Brixham so is some of the freshest fish going! You have to try this place as it's yummy! Remember to ask the chef what’s the best catch of the day.

Another family favourite! Opened in 2017 so new to the town but already has a lot of local fans! Specialises in smoking and slow cooking dry aged and free range meats and fresh Brixham seafood in its own American style wood pellet fired smoker! Fantastic deserts as well. A must!!!!

The friendly and welcoming Guardhouse Cafe is situated within a Napoleonic Fort on Berry Head, with stunning views across Torbay and the South Devon. Perfect for breakfast after walking the dog or lunch in the sun. Good spot for a beer or glass of wine as well. Very reasonably priced too!
