About Us

Welcome to The Wardroom Salcombe, a beloved waterfront institution that has been serving Salcombe for over 40 years. Perched along the stunning estuary, we continue to offer exceptional breakfast and lunch experiences, combining locally-sourced ingredients with genuine Devon hospitality.

With roots stretching back four decades, The Wardroom has been a cherished part of Salcombe’s waterfront since the 1980s. Our family became custodians of this beloved café in 2014, embracing its rich heritage while adding our own chapter to its story. We’re more than just a café – we’re a place where generations have gathered to share meals, memories, and magnificent views.

What We Offer:

Speciality Origin Coffee • Breakfast & Lunch Menu • Fresh Local Seafood including Hand-Picked Crab • Fresh Local Cod & Chips • Waterfront Al Fresco Dining • House Specialties including our renowned Full English Breakfast, Crab Benedict and of course the Crab Sandwich.

Join us for breakfast, lunch, or your daily coffee fix. No reservations needed – just bring your appetite and we’ll take care of the rest.
