A friend hired the back room for a birthday party. The staff were welcoming, the room was perfect - the ambience, size and age (clearly a building with some history), as well as the technology - that allowed us to select our own music and...have it on a projector screen. The toilet was great and the locals were friendly enough. However, the absolute star of the whole experience was Josh the barman. As well as obviously enjoying the music and games, he couldn't have been more helpful and jolly. He also treated us to a fantastic party piece - a ribald pirate song (although this was NSFW or for the faint of heart) . He even did a repeat rendition at the end of the night when we were clearing up.More

Lovely couple of hours here today, 8th August. Great food and drinks. Grand young man on bar and waiting duty. Very friendly, and made a real fuss of Gus, our Spaniel. Cracking establishment too!

My partner and I call in every time we are in Brixham. Josh the barman is very comical and has an excellent singing voice and at Pirate Festival can produce a few shanties to make your laugh or toes curl (depending who's in and the...time of night!!). The owners are always about and offer such a warm welcome. The large meeting area has a large video screen, so you can choose your own tracks and reminisce over the videos or have a dance (i'm always too busy looking at the video!). There are quiet rooms and an outside area as well. Food is good and as someone has already mentioned Sausage Rolls and Quiche are home made - try the curry sausage rolls! Perfect for a late saturday night. See you soon and thank you for being a fab pub in Brixham. Heidi & Kev!More

We stumbled on The Old Coaching Inn whilst on a weekend stay for the pirate festival. What a fabulous find. The atmosphere was amazing. Great music and what lovely staff. Lesley Jane really cared about her customers and that we had a great time. Will...we visit again? Definitely! It will be our first port of call next year. 😀😀More

We called in for something to eat and to enquire about hosting a workshop here. The staff and owners were so friendly and helpful and took the time to have a chat with us about the history of the beautiful inn. The atmosphere is so...cosy and friendly we didn't want to leave. The food you could tell was all home made and was absolutely delicious. We can't wait to visit again. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable xxMore

We were told to go here by a barman in our hotel, we were a tad merry so i really couldnt find it the next day but i remember the barnam was friendly and the people we met in there were chatty, nice ale nice...staff , wish i had found it sooner.More

We have been coming to this pub, when in Brixham, since it opened. Each year it gets better and better. It's definitely the best place for a fab night out, with exceptional staff and with a great atmosphere.More

Superb,straight out the keg ales -served how they should be. Friendly staff - quirky rooms-singing barman-chilled vino. A must visit when out and about in Brixham.

This is a fascinating little bar spread across several different rooms off a central outdoor corridor. Fantastically friendly service and a good range of drinks on tap, including some good ales and ciders. We found ourself in the front room which is really cosy with...a fire burning. Worked out perfectly with the kids as we weren’t disturbing other patrons and were well away from the bar. Doesn’t have the waterfront location of some of the other pubs, but makes up for this with friendly service and very comfortable atmosphere. Strongly recommend.More

This was a fab pub, although it looks closed from the street so I think they need to do more to make it look open and more obviously like a pub. We were very glad we wandered in, but it was always quiet and it...deserves to be busier! Gorgeous local cider on tap and a wall of barrels showcasing local beer, this place should be heaving!More

Enjoyed a fantastic traditional Folk weekend here courtesy Pennymoor Singaround from Mid Devon, with all the quality ales & drinks & good food this Inn offers. Dog & kiddie friendly, excellent disabled access & facilities. Has a set-back bar and function area on one side...with a bohemian vibe, and comfy family rooms on the other with puzzles & games, even videos for the children. The landlady is very obliging and the bar staff amusing and cheerful. A curious place, quite unique, worth checking out if you like something alternative.More
