The Bucket & Spade Café in Shaldon is officially among the South West’s elite, celebrating a double win at the prestigious Food Drink Devon Awards. The popular coastal eatery struck gold, taking home the top prize in the ‘Best Café’ category and securing a Silver in the ‘Best Restaurant’ category.
These major accolades cement The Bucket & Spade Café’s status as one of Devon’s most respected and passionate artisan establishments. The recognition is a testament to the team’s unwavering dedication to using the highest-quality, locally sourced ingredients, coupled with a commitment to providing truly exceptional service for both locals and visitors.

To celebrate this success and treat local families, the award-winning café is making dining easier than ever this half term with a generous Kids-Eat-Free offer! Available now until Sunday 2nd November, families can enjoy a complimentary meal for one child (under 12s only) with every full-paying adult, daily from 5pm. It’s the perfect way to enjoy a meal at one of Devon’s best-recognised eateries without breaking the bank.
