The Cider Press

Head up towards the higher end of Braddons Hill West and you'll find yourself in a proper neighbourhood watering hole that actually knows what it's doing with cider. This isn't the sort of place that's trying to be something it's not—it's got the relaxed confidence of a pub that's earned its regulars over time. You're getting decent pints, a decent crowd, and the kind of no-nonsense service that comes from staff who actually care about what they're pouring. The vibe is straightforwardly friendly without any pretension, which around Torquay can feel like a relief.
