Abbey Refreshments

Another wee gem, or at least from my point of view. These guys deserve a thumbs up as they have a 'suspended coffee' scheme for the thirsty with nae money. Good idea. Coffee not so good, but tbe bacon bap on granary was a generous size, and a free slice of crumble with yr coffee. What's not to like?

Lovely place! So glad we found it.

It was affordable and the food was delicious! I had a Ham and Cheese Panini, and it was the best! Food was served very quickly and we were even given a free gift of biscuits.

Small seating area outside or you can take your food and sit around the park area.

10/10 would recommend.

Delicious breakfast…
Variety in menu…
Friendly staff…
Hygienic setting…
Sea front ambience…

Fantastic rock cake and acceptable coffee for less than £3

A nice place for some quick eats. The icecream shop is nice.

What a surprise little gem. Great food and drink and pleasant staff who actually smile whilst giving service. And was given a bonus choc snack to have with my coffee and panini.

We had lunch here at Abbey Refreshments on Torre Abbey, Torquay today. We ordered two cheese and mayo baps with cold drinks. The service at the kiosk was very quick and the food was perfect, the baps were large and well filled. Brilliant value for money at £3.80 each, especially compared to the beach cafe opposite which are charging £7.00 for a smaller sandwich. . So, we'd definitely recommend having lunch down here at Abbey Refreshments on Abbey Lawn. Seating also available.

Had breakfast cobs a couple of times they were lovely and tasty. The paninis were delicious . Always friendly helpful staff. It was my last day there today so I ordered so cobs and a ham and cheese panini to take with us and when I opened the bag there were chocolate bars in there as a thank you what a lovely gesture ❤Thank you for looking after us❤❤

Quick friendly service. Excellent coffee & hot chocolate.

I stop here frequently for a drink and sometimes an ice cream. It's ideally situated near Torre Abbey Sands. There are tables and chairs on the grass, but no shade. The owner is very committed to the environment and offers recycling bins for the cans, bottles and cups you use for drinks purchased here. Please note: I'm not suggesting that this cafe is somewhere to dump your recycling! There are bins near the beach for this. However, you can always ask if you can use their facilities for a can or bottle you've used. Their straws are made from vegetables, not plastic, and the coffee cups are recyclable. In addition to drinks, there are wrapped sandwiches, pancakes/crepes and other sweet treats. A takeaway service is available. The owner is also keen to support other local businesses who share his ethos. All the staff are friendly, helpful and kind. I always feel welcome. They prefer card payments, but cash is fine if you can't pay by card. There's no toilet, but public ones are a very short walk away.

2 cheese and ham paninis, good price and a lot bigger than expected with lots of ham. Really nice food and enjoyed sitting in the gardens nearby to enjoy it, thank you we were very hungry before coming here and left very satisfied, will be back :)

Never been, recommended yesterday by our cousin, well worth the visit when in the park, drinks with free cakes what's not to like ,, great hot drinks well price , nice staff , great views , will be back

Great iced coffee and the sweetest man behind the till. What a wonderful experience with a great view!

5 star service! Really friendly staff. Great spot to grab refreshments and then relax on the green with the sea views. Big plus that they have all the non dairy options for hot drinks! Would recommend!

We have eaten here several times, got take aways and deliveries because it's my son's favourite place for a panini 😊 But also because the service is great, the view is stunning, and it's great to support a local business.

One of our favourite places to go in Torquay.
Super friendly service everytime and greeted with a lovely smile from the owner.
Free snack with hot drinks and high quality products that are reasonably priced.
Cant get enough of their paninis, we love them!
Thankyou Abbey Refreshments for being that treat on lockdown days out :)

One of my favourite places! Great prices and free snacks- cookies are delicious. Peanut butter cup ice cream and doggy treats - can't beat it.

This cafe is so great. It’s kept us going for months during the pandemic... always friendly, good coffee & yummy pastys on the lawn!

Can not find any fault here. Highly recomended. much better than other places. reasonably priced items and free snacks with hot drinks. ice cream was lush.

Came across here on a dog walk and tried the coffee milkshake. Got given a biscuit for the dog too. Safe to say we'll be going back and have recommended to friends :)
