Our French restaurant and bar in Torquay
Our Bistrot is near the Princess theatre and provides you with the perfect space to relax with friends and family whatever the occasion, set over two floors, with a downstairs bar and a covered first floor balcony offering panoramic views of Torquay’s beach and bay whatever the weather. Upstairs, we have ‘ maids perch ‘ many years ago the widowed maids would look out to sea… these days it’s much more fun – in favourable weather the perch has the most magnificent views and really is best place to be in Torquay.
Open daily for lunch and dinner, and breakfast on the weekend, our menu has dishes for everyone, including gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options inspired by our travels around France, our menus combine Bistrot classics with new seasonal dishes. Whether it’s a quick lunch or a relaxing dinner, our stunning Bistrot is perfect for every occasion.
