"Entering the village is like stepping through the Wardrobe in one of CS Lewis’ stories. A short drive from urban Torquay you find thatched roof cottages, a forge and windmill surrounded by a extensive country park. There’s also craft studios, a tea room and gardens at Cockington Court, the old manor house."
"Reviewers say the atmosphere is 'relaxing' and the breakfasts are 'good quality and extremely good food and drinks.'. One person said: "On a brief visit to Plymouth, we popped in to Jolly Jacks for Sunday brunch. They serve breakfast until 11.30am and their traditional breakfast was exceptional. They also offer vegetarian options and a great choice of hot drinks. "The wood burning stove added some warmth although the sun was also shining, so created a very cosy ambience. The seaside theming and decor was lovely and fresh, enhanced with the outside sea view!"
"To pretend you own a boat and sit drinking cocktails on the Mayflower Marina. Jolly Jacks is a local’s waterfront bistro with monthly sea shanty sing-alongs and morris dancing on St George’s Day. Traditional British food includes pie of the day, fish and chips, roast pork and chicken supreme, with sandwiches, Sunday roasts and breakfast on offer, too."

"All fish is caught on the restaurant’s boat, the Fiona Mary, or sourced from local fisherman like Moby Nick. Eat freshly caught crab and mayo sandwiches, local fish goujons, and hot or cold seafood platters on its huge harbourside terrace under the arches of Sutton Harbour."
"Tucked in the fisherman’s arches near the Mayflower Steps, choose from their classic menu or the new Scallop Shack menu, which offers locally-caught scallops (from their own boat) that have been lovingly shucked, prepared and cooked to order by their expert chefs."
"In at number six on TripAdvisor is Bertie's Ice Cream and Homemade Desserts. A few years back, former chef Philip Burnett expanded his well-known ice cream business and set up a permanent base at Commercial Wharf. He only uses local Yarde Farm ice cream, which he serves up with a range of homemade treats that are all made from scratch"
