Had the most amazing meal last night. The food was sublime, six of us descended on this wonderful place and we all ordered the seafood platter and all I can say is WOW!!! The food just kept coming, cooked to perfection, service was 5*
Such a range of food I can't imagine anyone going in and not being able to find something on the menu!
We all walked out in a seafood coma and talked about how amazing it was all the way home.
Give this place a go, you won't regret it.
Amazing food and so warm and welcoming!! Can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu! Highly recommend The Local to anyone. One of Paignton’s true gems �
Our last sample of the food experience in Paignton over a few days and this one was pretty impressive. The chef knows how to cook a Steak and according to the misses the Lamb Chomp was pretty exceptional as well. Good service, Dog friendly and great food. You should give them a go when you're next there.
Delicious food and a very family friendly atmosphere. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Even had a chat with us in a quieter moment. My wife said the Sunday roast was so nice, she was gutted she couldn’t manage to finish it. The burgers are huge and very flavourful. There is no way you are leaving this place without a full belly. Highly recommend.
What a gem of a place. Started with such a friendly welcome by the staff, including the chef as the kitchen is completely visible, behind glass. Seated at a lovely high table. Extremely clean and well looked after interior. Nice selection of drinks and my wife's pink g&t was one of the best she said she's had. For food, I had the Bbq mixed grill. All that's going to last a couple of days it was so big. Great selection of meats on it. My wife had salmon on zucchini spaghetti! Different, but very very tasty. When the bill came I was pleasantly surprised as it was very reasonable. All in all a lovely evening with lovely food and exemplary service. Def a go back to bistro.
Absolutely superb food and fantastic service once again. Andy and Steve looked after our table of 14 for my birthday fantastically. Food was amazing. Short notice booking and more than happy to accommodate a large group. Nice andnfast service and great selection of dishes.
The food here is outstanding! Enjoyed a perfect steak meal followed by one of the best desserts I've had. Fantastic service by the host; friendly and funny. We all enjoyed so mu h we returned the next day for Sunday lunch which was superb. You really must eat here if you visit Paignton

Will definitely go again this holiday or next. And recommend to anyone we know who comes down this way
I lived in Paignton all my life and remember this place as Pappers for an end of the night kebab. Since Andy took over for what ever reason I’ve not been in . That has been a massive mistake went there tonight for a meal with a mate and was blown away by the quality of the food . The place is very nicely done out very clean and the food OMG fantastic. Will definitely be telling everyone about it and will definitely be back . I seriously recommend this great restaurant .

Place was lovely. Very clean and tidy and beautiful set up. Staff were very welcoming and helpful, and food was delicious and well priced. Definitely recommend and will be going again.
We came as a family of 6 for a Sunday lunch last week. The service was fantastic and staff were very attentive. Food was fabulous, there was lots of it and loads of different veg which we loved. Highly recommend and I'd return in future.
