We are a family run Torquay pub, baby and dog friendly with a fabulous bar, restaurant and gorgeous landscaped garden. We pride ourselves on offering an extensive wine and drinks menu, combined with fantastic locally sourced food makes the Thatched Tavern a friendly place to eat, drink and relax.

The restaurant has been redesigned and refurbished creating a warm, cosy, stylish atmosphere enhancing the character and charm of the 17th century cottage – creating the ultimate Devon country pub experience.
We believe in keeping it simple and that great ingredients are crucial. Serving ‘modern Devon’ food made primarily from locally-sourced seasonal ingredients we have strong relationships with producers to ensure the best possible produce for our guests.
Food is served from noon, so you can even stop by for lunch. Whether it’s a light bite, or a steak you’re after, our menu features all of the delicious pub classics that you’d expect including reworked English classics with creative and tasty touches. Daily specials allow the Chefs to take advantage of fresh fish, limited availability game and kitchen garden produce, as the seasons allow. Being family focused we understand the need to provide nutritious smaller meals for little ones. We believe that kids should be able to eat the same as the adults, so we offer most of our dishes at half the size for half the cost
We have a fantastic selection of local wines and beers – no matter what your tipple, there’ll be something for you; we serve smooth draught lagers, craft beers, ciders, wine, cocktails and soft drinks – the perfect Torquay Pub experience!
