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
11 May 08, 17:48
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!!

Review of Apollo Cinema
11 May 08, 17:38
brilliant!!
this place is huge!! it is on the site of the old theatre where i spent many years dancing in various shows!! The staff are ok not great at smiling!! the cinemas themselves are always clean and tidy as are the toilets.the only place that sometimes looks a mess is the place where you get the pick and mix!!! What a nighmare!!

lovely bakery!!
this is a great place for your pasties and sausage rolls but they also do some lovely cakes and pastries. also jacket potatoes are lovely and the skin is quite crisp.friendly staff need ti get your order in early on though as if you leave it till late afternoon you will find most of the scrummy stuff already gone. nice clean shop.

Review of West Country Crystal

hand casting
A wonderful place to have in the south west. The factory tours they do are brilliant for both kids and adults, to watch the guys blowing the glass is amazing! they also have hand casting which the kids got well into! I had a go at painting some glass which was more difficult than i thought! Lovely place for a days visit!!

Review of Bideford Health Foods
08 May 08, 11:47
Keep it local
This little shop is very welcoming and i have to say its lovely to see such a great range of health products in a small independant shop! The nuts/raisans choice is perfect for all the family and the alternatives are wide ranging. Would prefer to give the business to this shop than the conglomerates!!

Review of Bideford Garden Centres

Lovely little personal garden centre
A very local garden centre situated in the co-op supermarket. The staff are exceptional and know the names of most of the customers! The plants are grown here in devon and the range is brilliant! The prices are very competative and the quality is far better than most!!

Review of Maisons Coffee Shop
07 May 08, 22:18
this a great coffee shop
they have a great range of coffees and teas as well as a great seating area considering it is in the heart of paignton. great sandwiches and rolls although i have to say that their jacket potatoes are some of the best i have ever tasted-far to much filling!! tiolets are clean and very fresh smelling!! which is nice to note in a town centre cafe.

Review of Primark

very cheap and cheerful
this is a huge store with everything from little ones to adults-although the store gets very busy and there is never enough staff on the tills the quality of the clothes and the prices of the clothes etc are well worth the visit
