The Old Library Restaurant/cafe

Great service and excellent food, highly recommend

great location..coffee and staff!

Coffee nice,sausages great,bacon a bit too smokey for me. Prefer normal beans! Poached eggs cooked nicely.

Was lovely other than not being allowed laptops inside the Cafe

Literally the best cakes (date and almond is ‘the one’), the best coffee (both available to take out), THE BEST AND YUMMIEST QUALITY FOOD and the friendliest staff. 10 stars all day long! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free cakes and they will also change food on the menu to suit (and not just by removing items, but adding more of what you can eat so you don’t end up still feeling hungry or like you’re being punished :-D).

This is our go to cafe for breakfast out in south devon. The food is brilliant and great value, the Atmosphere is cosy and inviting and the service is speedy and attentive. The cookbook library is such a nice touch. Would a highly recommended!!

Could not fault the food and service.

Having searched for the best brunch in Devon, we decided to stop in Ashburton on route to Cornwall and were not disappointed. The Old Library is a relaxed establishment with a friendly vibe. We were greeted and seated straight away and provided with menus to peruse. The order was taken in a timely and friendly manner and the drinks and food followed equally swiftly. The quality of the food was fantastic!! Overall, easy to get to, good food cooked well, presented well, served with a friendly confidence in a warm, comfortable and stylish interior. Thank you to all the staff, ‘you do what you do well’. Parking: There’s a public car park very close by.

Quick service and nice atmosphere. Staff were friendly and the food was tasty. The club sandwich was full of different flavours and the coffee was good. Will happily go again.

Well situated close to a large car park. Ideal for a quick coffee before/after visiting good local independent shops in Ashburton.
