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!!!

cheap booze and grub!!!
as with all wetherspoons this has great food and good service. not huge inside but plenty of seats as long as you get in early in going on a weekend.staff are friendly always on hand-toilets are clean and always smell really nice!! the only down side and i think it is like this with most places now it that you have have walk through a wall of smokers outside to get in!!

Review of Starz
11 May 08, 16:27
not great!!!
although this is a really popular place and the cocktails are great-especially the champagne ones!! i wasn't overly impressed with the food or service. the food was cold and half of it wasn't what we had ordered.the bar staff on the other hand were friendly but need to keep up with keeping the bar clear and clean!!!

Review of The Body Shop
11 May 08, 16:03
too expensive
although some of the body shops lotions are make up are extremely good the prices are ludicrous!! The shop is very clean and well presented but the staff jump on you the minute you walk in the shop!! and sometimes they dont seem to understand the phrase"just looking"!!!! stick to superdrug!!

Review of Paignton Plaice

yummy yummy
great fish and chips served here. gets quite busy but staff always friendly. not too greasy and the portions are great. still the best way to eat them is to walk on to the beach and sit and eat them out of the paper!!!! as long as you watch the gulls!!!

Review of Blights Car Dealers
08 May 08, 10:50
Great filling station
the main ford dealer in the town and a great Bp petrol station. I like to get my fuel from this station as they will often come out and serve me, you wont get that from tesco/sainsburys!! The forecourt is packed with mainly local used cars and the showroom is nice and spacious! Been ford for over 30 yrs so is well established!!

Review of Talk Of The Town

average carvery in town
large seating area. placed in the middle of paignton's torbay road it is in an ideal spot to attract local trade-the carvery is ok-not a huge selection of vegetables and found the meat to be warm no where near hot!! yorkshire puds werent the best either!!
