Fabulous restaurant. We enjoyed an exquisite set meal which considering the high quality was extremely good value. Chef prepares everything fresh to order and Katherine on front of house is warm, friendly and very efficient. House wine included in the fixed price was very quaffable. Everyone seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Highly recommended.

We tried this restaurant because we wanted seafood and the other two Brixham restaurants that specialised in seafood were either closed or fully booked, and JR's had good reviews, but we were disappointed - the food wan't bad just wasn't as good as we were expecting. We got off to a good start with the starters - my son enjoyed his starter of Fresh Scallops and my Tiger Prawns in a Chilli and Coriander sauce was fiery, but good. However, it was the mains that let the side down: my son enjoyed his Monkfish, Scallop and Prawn Medley (but found the sauce a bit heavy going), while my Lobster was a bit on the dry side and nothing special, and my wife's Trio of Brixham Fish was insipid and overwhelmed by the Parsley sauce. Based on the reviews, it would seem that ordering the meat is a safer bet.

We regularly have take away from here and have also eaten in recently. The food is of an excellent standard. Freshly prepared and delicious. There are some more unusual dishes, as well as old favourites. It is very good for vegetarian and vegan options, great when you have a mixed group with different dietary requirements.

This is an unassuming, relaxing, well finished restaurant setting in an otherwise somewhat "eclectic" setting. Essentially the restaurant dining room is in what was the lounge area of The Old Coaching House Inn. I believe the restaurant is being run independently of the remainder of the establishment and it has a lovely welcoming feel when you arrive, with a lovely log burner blazing away on a horrible wet, windy midweek afternoon. The menu has some really lovely choices and we were spoilt for choice. They are presented as small sharing plates but the portion sizes are really good as far as we were concerned. Between us we had the heritage beetroot with goats curd, which was the star of the meal for me, belly pork and mushrooms with sweet potato. We also had a side of chips with truffle oil and parmesan, which we really did not need but were fantastic! Too satisfied to indulge in a desert, the meal was very reasonably priced and service from Jess was attentive and efficient whilst allowing us to feel relaxed. This place really deserves to do well and I sincerely hope they do. Search it out, you won't be disappointed!
