Wonderful, unique cafe. An absolute hidden gem. Retro, ship themed cafe/mini museum experience (even the loo is brilliant and not to be missed). The staff were so welcoming- Karen who served us was so attentive and Bob the owner made us feel so welcome and told us the history of the place and how it’s his retirement passion. Lovely coffee, cakes, afternoon teas and breakfasts. Wonderful atmosphere and artifacts. Not to be missed!!
Found by accident we popped in for a coffe but came out as changed man...when we got in i looked around and was like a cunard whitestar mini museum...then We met Bob the owner who used to work on the QE2.. i have worked on the QM2..so a long chat started!! Got to write my name on the wall too!!( all members who were member of any cunard ships can write their name on the wall!!!)
The place itself is just stunning with so many special features!!!( spoiler allert please go to toilet while you there!!!!)
The food and coffee is fantastic and the whole vibe is eye watering!!!if you like the ocean liner culture started with the Titanic, you must visit!!!!
The most amazing little ‘Davy Jones' Locker’ with lots of one of a kind antiques, ocean liner collectibles and originals.
The coffee lounge has a great selection of cakes (and they’re not stingy with their slices), various brunch items including vegan and vegetarian options and IMO the best coffee in Brixham.
The staff are always friendly and attentive and the owner (Bob) is very knowledgeable, passionate and happy to chat.
The USP for me is that they have a policy of no children under 12, but dogs are welcome, which explains the pleasant atmosphere.
They even have theme related memorabilia under the glass table tops, walls signed by ex mariners and a carefully curated playlist.
P.S. Don’t forget to visit The Engine Room!
