Visited on a very rainy afternoon in July. This is a former Wetherspoons pub (now a bit tatty round the edges). It was playing loud modern "music" when we visited, a completely off putting experience. Beer was OK. We didn't go back!

Located in an ex Wetherspoon pub retaining the decor. Sat by the window and had a drink while chatting to a nice local couple which was probably the most enjoyable part of our visit to Paignton.

Didn't do food in the evening, nothing on the website to clarify. Went back later for a drink. Table was really sticky. Staff were rude and unwelcoming. Closed at 10pm, told us to go at 10.20. Dreadful place, make it into flats

Waited for our order for three. The orders came out. The two were acceptable at best. My dish of fish and chips (being by the sea thought why not). It came out way way overdone. Fish didn?t flake at all it crumbled. And was Newmarket all batter with the smallest piece of fish when I could find it. It was the worst fish and chips I ever have. Stay away at all costs when it comes to food.

Went there this evening, we ordered 2 x burger meals and soft drinks for the princely sum of 13.99 ! Very friendly staff , drinks full to the brim and not too long a wait for the food. Hot and delicious, music in the background, it was a lovely evening. We would definitely go again , thanks isaac merrit.

We popped in last Sunday morning for a breakfast. The barmaid was very friendly, only one menu available at the end of the bar, which was ok. We ordered a small veggie and a small traditional breakfast. After a good 25 minute wait (only three other people in there) we heard "you've forgotten the sausage on this one", and our breakfast arrived. My partner had two veggie sausages instead of one, I was missing mine. And it never appeared. The bacon was overcooked, and even for 'small' the portion was tiny. Hot drinks unlimited but more expensive than Spoon's. Tried it, but won't go back.

Drinks were served quick. Food was a little late. Waited 35/45 minutes. When it was served it was lovely. The music was lovely and the tvs were entertaining

Quiet place to go to for a mid-afternoon weekend drink. Friendly staff, but decor needs updating. I understand the pub now has new owners, so hope it gets a good makeover.

We visited for Sunday lunch. The food was amazing,we all had Roast Beef which melted in your mouth. The portions are huge, proper home cooked food. Extremely good value for money. 3 of us had deserts, one Irish coffee. Again fantastic portions and great value for money. The staff are friendly without being overbearing. We will definitely be back and highly recommend The Isaac Merritt to anyone wanting a really nice family meal.

Sunday Lunch was superb. There were five of us and each of us thoroughly enjoyed roast beef. We're now going every Sunday.
