Restaurants, Pubs & Cafés
Go to listing ↓Browse Restaurants, Pubs & Cafés on Mapzest. Sort by distance to find the closest options. Listings are kept up to date by the businesses themselves.
Food and drink across South Devon ranges from working-harbour seafood restaurants and traditional pubs to independent cafés, wine bars and artisan food shops — the area's fishing heritage means seafood landed at towns like Brixham features heavily, while Totnes and Dartington's food and drink scene leans more independent and artisan in keeping with the towns' wider reputation.
Because the character of food and drink varies so much by town — harbourside and maritime in the fishing towns, more upmarket in Salcombe, more independent in Totnes — this global page is the place to browse the whole real directory at once. A specific town's own Food & Drink category (under its Places page) narrows things down to restaurants, cafés, pubs or takeaways genuinely local to it.
Every listing here comes from Mapzest's directory of real local businesses, most of which manage and update their own profile directly — so opening hours, menus and offers are as current as the business itself keeps them. Whether you're after a proper seafood dinner by a harbour, a quick coffee, or a pint with a view, start with the categories above or browse by town for what's nearby.
Sub-categories break this down further into restaurants, cafés, pubs, bistros, breweries, wine bars, takeaways and food markets, so you can narrow straight down to what you're after. Results can also be sorted by distance from you, useful for finding the closest option wherever in South Devon you happen to be.
Dated food and drink EVENTS — tastings, pop-ups and themed nights with their own specific date — are listed separately under Events, and standalone food and drink offers under Offers; this page and its sub-categories cover the everyday restaurant, café and pub listings themselves.
