Stopped in today as fiance wanted some chips, were far from disappointed. Service from all 3 staff was exceptional! Nothing was too much trouble, chef was present & talked through all options.
Delicious, accommodating, politeness personified - highly recommended - looking forward to returning.
Thank you all!
Visited the Pelican Cafe on three occasions whilst on holiday in Paignton last week. I was very satisfied with the service and the quality of the food. The fish and chips were lovely, good size portions and cooked fresh. Prices were similar to any fish and chip shop nowadays. Will visit again without a doubt on my next visit to Paignton later this year. Recommended.
My partner and I shared a portion of fish and chips and they were perfectly happy for us to have a spare plate. We were told the fish would be 4 or 5 minutes which was absolutely fine. Meanwhile both staff members were chatty with us and anyone who joined in. We liked the feel, the food was hot, the staff were professional, the cod flaked. We'll go back, thanks to the 2 of you working Tuesday lunchtime!

Had a fishcake bap with bbq sauce & lettuce back in June at Torbay Airshow staff was so helpful & very friendly the fish cake bap was absolutely stunning definitely be visiting here again
On holiday on my own I dred eating out but when I came across the Pelican I felt quite at ease the 3 young men couldn't have done enough the chicken burger was the best I'd had for years and the chips were lovely. Thank you.
Went for breakfast (they're now opening 8am on Friday, Saturday and Sunday). Excellent food, polite friendly service and very clean. Good value, would definitely recommend
This is a lovely chippy.. the staff are great..proper fish and chips
Great fish and chips, best we have had in Paignton. Fish was fresh, flakey and full of flavor, the chips were nice a crispy too. As to the negative reviews on here, if they're true then the place has really improved. Can't fault them at all, will definitely be back 10/10.
Nice little fish and chip shop. Fish was very freshly cooked, of a good size and reasonably priced. Chips were nice, good portion size and tasty. Only downside is the toilet, clean but very small in size cannot swing a cat in there!
Great chippy, always happy to please. Asked for scraps but they'd just opened so offered to make me some! Chips and beans with scraps and lashings of salt and vinegar.. brilliant.
