The best restaurants in Seaton East Devon South West

Two of us called in to have a tradition holiday ice cream. Lovely ice cream made at a local family farm with a good variety of flavours. Rich and creamy and a pleasant change from corporate produced ice cream.

The girls inside were very polite but at the same gossiping between themselves indiscreetly. We picked take away. Didn’t wait long. However, the sweet and sour was glow in the dark type of ridiculous, tasteless non food. The rice just tasted weird. The chow main leaking oil, etc. It all went to the bin. Pleasant enough place but do not recommend the food if you’re looking for edible.

So slow. Mobile app said 5-8 mins. Still no signs 15 mins after ordering. Chased and was told "We're busy". Said should switch off the app and the response was easier said than done.

Beyond disappointing- wouldn’t recommend to anyone, awful experience. The manager was beyond uncooperative! We had booked through hotel.com a ‘family room’ , we had then noticed a few days before our stay a luxury room had become available at a cheaper price so we rang up and spoke to a gentleman Luke( couldn’t fault him in any way-the most understanding staff member they had) who had it all swapped over for us- upon arrival we had to wait 20 minutes for them to even be able to open up the room door which was beyond a joke, key wouldn’t work so had to get maintenance ( is this not checked before check in? How could they have cleaned the room the morning of our stay when they key wouldn’t work?) when we did eventually get in, the smell was gross, smelt like old, dog and damp and wasn’t the warmest of rooms. The windows wouldn’t close and we had a view onto the back alley. The room was decorated with dog hair it seems, dog hair in the bed, in the shower floor and the blankets and in general over the floor. Dog friendly yes- this amount of hair NO. We then went down and questioned as we did not get either a luxury room or what we first enquired about as a family. We got a standard double-so not even what we paid for. We weren’t welcome back for breakfast and they refused a refund or even partial to fund towards our amazing stay in the premier in 30 second walk around the corner. premier in = 5 STAR. Highly recommend not staying a night in this eyre court hotel.

Been to Hughsies again for a few meals while on holiday in Seaton. Lovely breakfasts freshly cooked and good service. Lunches were a more difficult choice as there was a good selection and I know from experience that whatever we chose would be delicious. I have seen a number of negative comments on here but my husband and I have never had a problem. Nice clean cafe and good fresh cooked meals. We will be back again next year.

Not our usual stop in Seaton for a coffee but thought to try somewhere else. Glad we did. Husband had hot chocolate which he said was hot and chocolatey. I had black americano which was good flavour. Good selection of cakes as well. Nicely fitted out cafe, friendly staff and, hoorah, a no dog policy! We will be back. Thank you.

Expensive pre packed cakes, with no prices listed. Upon checking the receipt - it was £3.95 for one! Hot drinks were served in paper cups. The staff were polite, but looked fed up. We won't be returning.

This morning at 11.55 i went into Costa in Taunton Fore steer and whilst waiting to be served a grey Rat ran across the floor and stopped by the stairs a lady next to me said is that what i think it is and we both watched and agreed it was a large grey Rat, We alerted the staff who did nothing. I went over to the stairs and ran underneath and scuttled behind some paneling, We both thought it a rather odd experience but it was the lack of interest or response from the staff.that i think we were more surprised at. I would assume that the staff would have a procedure for dealing with vermin or at least putting customers minds at rest. Personally it did not worry me that much but the lady was quite upset took her coffee and left. not a great start to my Monday needless to say i made sure the flapjack i bought with my drink was in sealed package. Not sure i will going back to Costa,
