An optical pickup device and an optical disc apparatus including the optical pickup device are provided which can obtain a stable servo signal in the recording/reproduction of an information recording medium inexpensively fabricated with multiple information recording surfaces. The optical pickup device includes: a laser diode that emits a light beam; a grating that splits the light beam into at least a main beam, a first sub beam, and a second sub beam; and an objective lens that condenses the light beams and forms at least three spots on an optical disc, wherein the spot of the first sub beam and the spot of the second sub beam are located inside or outside the spot of the main beam on the optical disc, and a tracking error signal is generated from signals obtained by detecting the first sub beam and the second sub beam.
