typical shop!! 
this is right in the middle of victoria street and quite a busy shop. the staff are ok but not overly friendly and not too knowledgable!! its not a huge shop so can get quite busy-especially just as you walk in as that is where all the magazines etc are!! not a great place to put them!!!!

cheap and good stuff!!!!!
this is quite a little store but always clean and presentable apart from when they have a sale and then it's free for all!!! the clothes are of a good standard and they have some really good cheap "work" shoes too!!! no where as big as the torquay store but i actually prefer this one!!

Review of Starbucks

expensive coffee
again like all starbucks the coffee's are great and the hot chocolate-but it is expensive and there are never enough staff on-so you are kept waiting along time!! the panins sandwiches and pastries are also vey good but again way over priced-my suggestion would e a coffe from there early on to afford queues and a homemade sandwich!!!

not great!! 
years ago this was called the pickwick and was my local it was great!!! Not now!!! food is cheap and chearful and can be cold!! quite a lot of seating inside but again there are always alot of people outside smoking and that you have to go through first!! be aware at weekends as there are quite a few "unsavory" characters that frequent this pub.

Review of Jades Coffee House

great food
this is a cheap and cheerful cafe opposite the railway station. the food is typical cafe and good home cooked pasta bakes omelettes etc. their baguettes are really big and packed full of whatever filling you have!! The coffee's etc are lovely especially the hot chocolate.the only down side was that the food took nearly an hour!!!

eat in or takeaway
this is a great restaurant-beautiful inside and staff are very welcoming and extremely helpful if you are not sure exactly what is on the menu!! the duck is superb and very filling-and they prepare it at your table!!! Not overly expensive although if you are drinking spirits this can put your bill up abit!!

Review of Pizza Hut

fantastic!!!!
How big are their pizzas!!!!! The staff are great and the food is fabulous!! their stuffed crust pizza is really tasty but you need to make sure that you dont eat anything for a week before you go!! It's a real struggle!! the icecream factory is great!! loads of sweets to dump on your ice cream and lots of sticky sauces!!
