Topsham is a small Devon town with a modest but solid food scene. The restaurants here run the gamut from casual cafés to more considered dining: Topsham Treats is rated 4.8 from 35 reviews, while Kiln (4.5 from 8 reviews) and Mesita (4.1 from 36 reviews) also draw custom. Matthews Hall Cafe and Magpies both have perfect ratings, though with very few reviews between them. Fore rounds out the options. This is not a town built on tourism infrastructure, but it is a place where people eat out.
The Topsham Treasure Hunt Trail is the attraction we know about, offering an interactive way to explore the town. Beyond that, Topsham is a place to get a sense of what a functioning Devon town actually is, away from the busier resort areas. For most visitors, the draw will be the food and a night's accommodation, with the trail as something to do while you are there.
