Surely somebody on here must be familiar with the Brixham, Paignton and Torquay area? Or is it just not a particularly good spot for beer?

Not been there for a few years. I used to overnight there travelling for work. At the time the hole in the wall was OK, as was the Devon Arms. Two spoons, The Green Ginger was a bit grim. The London Road was ok for spoons. But as I say this is all a bit dated.

Teign Cellars, Cider Bar, Maltings Taphouse - all in Newton Abbot. Regular service on No 12 bus - about 20 mins. Hope the suggestion was not too late.

Absolutely, took nearly two and a half hours to get from Brixham to the M5, and still bad all the way up to past Bristol. That red floodwater is really freaky as well!
