Reviews Summary

The Old Manor is lauded for its beautiful, historic building and welcoming atmosphere, complemented by friendly and efficient staff. Diners rave about the homemade, delicious food, particularly the Sunday roast, though some mention it's undergoing refurbishment which adds to its charm. It's considered a great community local and a place people aim to make their regular spot.

"Super cool pub with a great choice of beers.

Food looked good in passing though I never ate here sadly.

Even as a visitor only had to order once and the bar staff didn't need to ask what I was drinking each time over the three days I went in, in a particularly busy pub, which I'm guessing was mostly locals.

Great vibe, friendly people. I hope I get to come back."

The 11 Torbay pubs you'll visit first when restrictions end

A true traditional English pub that even has a thatched roof!. It's a 17th Century Grade 2 listed building that is filled with a rustic charm, which is why it's very popular with those who live in the area. It's a great place to go either in the summer with their 'sun-trap' beer garden, or during the winter with a roaring real fire.

Ah, The Old Manor – a pub that has stood the test of time and seen more than its fair share of characters over the years. With its creaky wooden floors and cosy nooks, it’s like stepping into a time machine back to days gone by. But don’t worry, you won’t find any ghostly patrons here (at least not during happy hour).
