Quick info
About Frankie's Breakfast Bar & Coffee House
Frankie's Breakfast Bar & Coffee House is a walk-in cafe on Torbay Road in Paignton, open for breakfast service with table-side toasters. The menu leans into traditional breakfast plates, including porridge and bacon rolls, and extends through the day to jacket potatoes served with a filling and a side salad. Dogs are welcome, fitting the casual counter setup. Service runs at a steady pace rather than a quick one, and waits around three quarters of an hour for breakfast orders are common during the morning rush. The room is set up for walk-ins, and payment is settled at the counter.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is the draw, with reviewers praising plates cooked to perfection, superb porridge and toasters on the tables. Others mention poached egg on toast, big jacket potatoes and good coffee. Complaints centre on bacon described as grey, burned or undercooked, and a tasteless flat white. Two reviewers describe a defensive or aggressive owner, and two report being sick afterward. One notes the fire alarm going off twice.

“Went in for a bacon bap and a flat white. The bacon was fatty, stringy and undercooked. I was hungry, so forced it down. The flat white was tasteless and I left without finishing it. I suspect it was just an instant coffee. Very poor.”
