Beggars Roost Inn in North Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The Exmoor Manor Hotel. What a fantastic home from home B&B great hosts that couldn’t have been any more helpful. Kevin & Jan were always on hand and would help with any thing you required. Very quiet location with Beautiful views and lovely walks for you and your four-legged companion who are very welcome at the Exmoor Manor. Rooms are lovely and well appointed, breakfast was Plentiful with tea, coffee, Juices, cereals, yogurts, And of course, a lovely full English Cooked breakfast, you couldn’t want for more. The Exmoor Manor also has an alcohol license selling wines and beers on the premises and I heard Kevin ordering a certain brand of beer for clients that were frequent returning guests, that had requested if he could stock this for them when they returned on there next visit. wow, great. So the motto is asked and they will try and accommodate. One sad things is Kevin & Jan have put the Exmoor Manor up for sale at a very reasonable price I think, so may not be there when I return but I’m sure the new owners will be just as accommodating in this beautiful Manor hotel bed and Breakfast. Thank you again Kevin and Jan and good luck for the future Flipper.

We had a very lovely stay, Kevin and Jan are absolutely lovely, just a pitty that we had just one day stay. 5stars minimum!!😊

Very quiet and peaceful atmosphere.. accommodation perfect owners were super friendly.. also Pet friendly!

Non local unfriendly bar staff, and food was a dud, better off driving into town.

Had a lovely meal and a good atmosphere

Can't give info on staying here only on foot and ails plus disabled access great they've got a ramp portable. But there are issues with access to toilet and 2 set's steps plus 1 small step which was very annoying but doable. Access to toilet is one big step down so be prepared. Alis are brilliant food okay but mash is packet powder I'm no expert.

Really friendly guy behind bar, very informative about area also, was a bit dubious because of prices as a bit more than we've paid in North Devon but the Goan Prawn curry and Beef Madras were very generous and great tasting so definitely worth that bit more. Will return

Der Pub und das Essen waren sehr 👍

Lovely spot, clean and comfy, great atmosphere and food in pub. Very friendly ,recommend

Freshly cooked food and good sized portions. Great selection of ales and ciders on tap. Really friendly people too. Would love this to be my local pub!

We were staying at the camp site next door and thought we go to this local pub. The bar man was very rude to us and made us feel very unwelcome. We were told that we couldn't sit at a table after we ordered drinks, stating it was reserved for food only, however no one was using it.

Inhospitable host, very unwelcoming. Walked in to enquire about an evening meal to be told that they were fully booked and we had better book if we wanted a meal the following night. We asked if we could have a drink and we’re frozen out of the bar. Most unusual and unwelcoming.

We were camping next door. Initially went there for drinks, which had a good selection of cider and cask ales. The pub catered well for the kids taste of J2O and Pepsi. I was even introduced to Peachy Blinder (go and find out). Only ate there once but the food was excellent - loved my steak and the price didn’t put me off at all. Overall a decent local pub which I enjoyed visiting. Thanks for looking after us.

Friendly and warm welcome. Really dog friendly. Good value for money. Lasagne was delicious. Really handy to the caravan park next door.

Just used the pub and I thought it was awful, poor choice of food and quite expensive which doesn't help. Shame really because the place has quite good potential.

Very friendly welcoming and helpful owners. Small selection but good food in restaurant. Excellent breakfast.

Stayed on 25th -26th July for my Birthday. We were met by Kevin who carried all our bags to the room, Jan showed us where everything was. They made a huge fuss of my little dog. There is enty of parking. The room was just perfect and a birthday card was in my room from everyone at Beggars Roost. What a lovely touch!. The gardens are perfect for walking the dog. The food in the pub was delicious and portions were very generous, breakfast was again delicious. Kevin and Jan are just amazing, so friendly, nothing is too much trouble, the are really lovely genuine people. You feel like you are leaving having made new friends. Definitely recommend and definitely going to return and stay longer. Thank you so much.

Arrived at the Campsite after a long journey, so we opted to eat at the Beggars , The gentleman behind the the bar was very accommodating and friendly and arranged us a table to eat . The cask ale was kept well , a good pint. The however we thought was over priced for what it was £17 . Basic Pub food small portions. But they have the monopoly as there is no where else within walking distance.

Jan and Kevin, brilliant hosts.

Overpriced food. Lack lustre. Very disappointing. £17 for a 'slice' of vegetarian lasagne and some skinny fries. That's it - no salad, veg, peas?? Dry, pale cheese topping. Only just very warm, not hot. Where was the slightly caramelised top layer of gooey cheese and pasta edges? Solid chunks of hard courgettes. The skinny fries were the best bit. Soooo overpriced. Like a microwave meal only sliced. Hunters Chicken, same price. Did at least have a salad effort with it. Measliest bit of chicken, with limp bacon. Prime location. Get a chef in if charging these prices for café food! Sorry but you are taking the proverbial. Won't return. Shame. And £7.50 for bog standard desert option? Didn't go there.

The owners are incredibly nice and simple people,,so friendly and kind Kevin and Jane 🙂👌 the breakfast excellent and the rooms very bright and large with a huge bathroom and the breakfast was excellent 👌

Really friendly staff and lovely food in a quiet location full of wildlife I only used the pub not the hotel but its clean easy to find and prices are average and fair. The landlord is friendly and welcoming and will make time for you.

Went here for some dinner and the atmosphere was lovely, the Landlord was very friendly and gave great service. Food was excellent!!

Lovely place to stay, shame I left before breakfast. Also WiFi is not available in the rooms.

This was a 'spur of the moment' visit, my husband having been isolated in the house since beginning of December recovering from two broken hips. Our arrival was just before opening time, but Kevin came out to greet us. We just wanted beer and crisps but his reply was "That's fine." He was so considerate throughout our visit that we shall recommend Beggars Roost to lots of friends. Not only did he help my husband in and a seat by the fire, but when we spotted "Chicken and Mushroom pie", in spite of it being "Sunday Roast" day, chef produced it, and it was very much enjoyed. A delightful experience!

A great dog friendly pub serving a great variety of food and beverages. I can recommend the lamb shank and steak. Friendly landlord.

What an absolutely wonderful place. We stayed with our two bichons and had an amazing time. The hotel is fabulous, the room was massive and so welcoming and comfortable. Relaxing, quiet and just superb. Beggars Roost is a delightful pub, so cosy and just, yeah great. A really dog friendly place and full of like minded really happy dog owners. We had an amazing stay, the food was superb and the owners were out of this world and couldn't do enough for us. The worse bit was going home! Thank you for the best break ever! xx

Good Sunday roast at a decent price, friendly and swift service from the landlord who was working behind the bar as well as serving tables on his own. Also dog friendly inside the pub which is always a bonus. We were staying at the campsite next door for a week during the summer holidays and returned a few times throughout.

Loved eating here made 2 feel welcome by Kevin and Jan food was fantastic can't fault it

Ate here every night this week can't fault Kevin and Jan they looked after us.food was fantastic can't recommend this enough

The owners are very welcoming and friendly. Service in the pub was great and food was good. Breakfast was very good too.

Large clean rooms, with everything you need (tea, coffee, hot chocolate, shower gel, soap, fridge etc.) Immaculately clean, bedding and towels smelled fresh. Couldn't fault the food, well cooked and tasty (2 breakfasts and an evening meal), alcoholic drinks very reasonable. Helpful, pleasant hosts. Thank you for a lovely stay!

On arrival I was warmly greeted and shown my room, which was spacious and extremely clean with a good sized bathroom with the usual extras, I was asked if I wanted to book a table at the pub next to the hotel which I did the service was good and so was the food, after I had eaten I went back to my room which had a good choice of hot drinks my nights sleep was very good. In the morning the breakfast was very good hot and generous in size, my overall stay was very good I would stay there again and recommend it.

Super dog friendly, lovely owners. Clean & spacious rooms. The perfect hotel for a weekend away! We can’t wait to come back already!

VIsited for food once and drinks a few times when staying next door on the camp site. Hosts are very friendly and food very good. Would love to return when back in the area again.

Went Saturday evening,staff very friendly & helpful. I had the steak which was cooked to perfection and my wife had the last smoked salmon linguini - also perfect When we stay in the area again will return ! Unfortunately I was too full to have dessert, wife had chocolate brownie which was very nice (I managed a spoonful lol) Make sure u book!!

A wonderful friendly welcome from the owners made us know instantly that we had chosen the right place for Sunday lunch. Very dog friendly and the roast beef was delicious as was the rioja 🍷 Just outside Lynton/Lynmouth with ample parking, highly recommend.

Schitterende omgeving, mooi uitzicht. Vriendelijke eigenaren. Hondvriendelijk. Ook nog een aantal goede tips gekregen van bezienswaardigdheden in de omgeving. Zeker een aanrader.

booked a table for two, good menu & food we ordered was very good, i ordered the Ale & Steak Pie which was very tasty & partner ordered Salmon Linguine which was also tasty.well priced. the only down side was it needed a deep clean.

The Beggars Roost is a lovely old pub/hotel in a beautiful countryside setting, the food is both plentiful and delicious. The Beggars Roost is dog friendly.

Lovely owners, so welcoming and friendly. Plenty of food options. Would recommend!

Had a lovely meal, staff very friendly, very nice pub

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely hotel run by extremely friendly and delightful couple. Lovely food, location, accommodation and atmosphere. We highly recommend this hotel. We will be back.

Very nice Sunday roast, real ale and friendly service. Thank you!

I visited the pub in the evening for food. I had an excellent lamb cutlet that I would definitely recommend. The atmosphere was very relaxed and service was prompt.

Love this place and their beast burgers. We stop in a couple of times a year at least while hiking in the area (there is a campsite next door). They are always welcoming and the food and drink is decent. Exmoor Ales are on tap.

Just been with my wife who is gluten free. Double checked that the burger bun is gluten-free reassured that it was. It came with chips that had gluten in them. The chips were removed from the plate but still my wife had a reaction and is now being sick. Thanks! Cracking anniversary! I suggest you get your…. together to not poison any other customers!

Plenty parking. Friendly owners. Turns out have paid for room on arrival not when leaving. The bed broke had owner fix before dinner served. No free drink or money off bill. . But put on edge all night that would fail again.. pub opens after 5pm. But not open everyday either. Food was nice. Brekkie was a surprise in good way.. there is a holiday park next door so you will have to book a table as there is nothing else around the area.

We didn't stay overnight but had a lovely Sunday Roast on a rather extra wet Sunday. We pre booked a table on the day for 4 plus our dog. The food was prompt on arriving, very tasty & there was plenty of it. The children's roast was not far off the Adults sized portions, both picked the chicken and loved it. I had beef which was cooked to perfection, my Husbands had the eye popping meat trio. We shall definitely return.

Amazing atmosphere, staff are so friendly and food is good . Can't comment on rooms

Stopped for a drink on the way back from a walk on the Moors, the landlord was extremely friendly and welcoming, cozy atmosphere and characterful decor. Would recommend.

The staff were lovely and it began well with lovely starters. The popcorn chicken and Brie were tasty. The main courses were not as good. The children’s pizza was a cheap microwave one that was floppy. The salad with my quiche was very unimaginative, just some green leaves that were also a bit floppy. The pie was under seasoned with not much meat and the veg (carrots, broccoli and leeks) were just boiled and bland. Sadly, I would not recommend this place.

Lovely pub and the menu looked like pretty staple bar food, shame it was clearly microwave meals by the speed if arrived and if had been "nuked" to molten temperatures. Not that I am in any way a wine connoisseur but I do appreciate my...

It was a lovely place to stay. Warm welcome and the breakfast was outstanding.

This is a traditional pub, great and friendly staff, food is nice. Dogs loved lying in front of fire, all in all, great place. I read reviews which were concerned about the toilet facilities, I must say, I have seen a lot worse.

We had a very pleasant meal in the pub/restaurant. The landlord was very friendly and the atmosphere was lovely with the large log burner. The food was reasonably priced, well portioned and tasty. There was a good selection of local beers and ciders. We have heard very good things about the Sunday roast! Would gladly visit again.

What a wonderful place, great log fire burner too! Service was great even though the wife wasn't working that night, both husband & wife attended to us with efficiency, very attentive, food was delicious & well presented! What more can I say... Other than, would thoroughly recommend.

Proper old English pub bar with well kept ales. Food not available until later in the day, but a good place for r&r

The food was great. The staff friendly and welcoming. We booked last minute on the Friday and room was found for us. It was so good we returned there for what turned out to be a yummy Sunday lunch. They take dogs as well. Malc, Suzie and Nellie the ginger ninja.

Very limited menu, food underwhelming and extremely overpriced for what it was. Toilets, both ladies and gents, were dire; in need of complete refurb, dimly lit and dirty. Shame; the website and outside of the pub looked so promising.

Loved the food and the landlord was Brilliant it needs more post like this very friendly good selection of beers and attached is the hotel worth going to and book in advance and dogs are welcomed

A tired pub with little choice on the menu. Might be better in the main season. Very grubby loos both in ladies and gents. Notes in our travel journal are more explicit!!

We enjoyed our weeknight meal here in September, but wouldn't have got a table if I hadn't booked ahead of time. Good food in nice atmosphere, served by friendly staff.

Remembering VAT was at 5% not 20% due to Covid, 2 drinks cost £11. !! Food also Very expensive and very ordinary. You can do much better elsewhere. Manager rude. Avoid if you want a nice meal

Very expensive. Very tasty roast but had to pay £4 for a portion of cauliflower cheese and £1.50 per person for extra gravy which I thought was disgusting on top of paying £17 each for a plated dinner which wasn’t overly big at all. Drinks were very expensive Wouldn’t visit again at these prices!!

Nice atmosphere in a peaceful location. Food was lovely.

Excellent rooms, and food and friendly owners. Highly recommend

Found this on last day of a five day trip to Exmoor Wish we had found it on the first day of our trip Kevin the owner made us really feel welcome, the food was fantastic and a great selection of beers and ales Great...

Delicious Sunday lunch, really great flavours and perfectly done. The sticky toffee pudding was off the scale too.

Lovely place, great food and beer, welcoming staff and a warm localsy vibe - well worth a return visit 👌

Absolutely delicious food, roast beef was perfect, parsnips, vegetables and Yorkshire puddings all very tasty. The best Sunday lunch for sure, definitely worth the drive for the scenery and the food, will certainly be returning.

What a lovely man who served us.. and attentive and lovely food. We walked in at 5pm and ma aged to get a table. The Venison was wonderful. A friendly place

Family and dog-friendly, beautiful exterior. Staff pleasant. Very busy. That's the positives. The food is ok but really just ok. All arrived at different times, had to ask for and then go and get cutlery. Our choices included: Kids meal - £7.50 (5 nuggets, fries and a spoonful of beans. No drink or dessert included). £16 for a tiny veg lasagne and 2 pieces of dry garlic bread. Burger or Scampi was best option but again £16 Absolutely don't mind paying these prices when food is good, fresh not frozen, served warm and all comes at same time. Unfortunately none of those. Appreciate a very difficult time for hospitality with staffing, but this was not the issue with our meal.

We had a lovely evening meal here. The service was good and the food excellent. My husband loved both his pate and Moroccan stew. Everything you could want in an evening meal on holiday!

We first ate here about a year ago and despite the COVID restrictions in place we had a really good meal so we decided to eat here again on our second visit. We were so glad we did as it was a lovely meal and...

I like this pub, (closed Wednesdays) variety of beer/lager/cider. Need to book for evening meal, I called ridiculously early one morning, call was answered and booked. The menu is lovely, tad more expensive as they are not run of the mill pub grub, they are of a higher class. I liked how you ordered on a pre-printed paper and handed over the bar. Friendly staff good service allows dogs and kids in the bar

What a great pub. Went for dinner last night with the family and the dog. The staff are super friendly and very welcoming. The food is fantastic - highly recommend this place but you'll have to book early.

Having not booked in advance in late July for our first night in Devon, we contacted a number of restaurants without joy until we found this pub. A little fearful that there would be a reason it wasn’t fully booked, we arrived with some trepidation....

Nice friendly place, helpful staff, lovely setting.

Booked while on holiday and did not disappoint. Everyone in our party agreed that the food was excellent. I especially enjoyed the crab starter but everything we ordered was delicious. Service was brilliant too - they do a cracking job given how busy it is...

Great. Friendly welcome and service. Choice of food good. Quality of food Great. Service fast and friendly. Competitively priced for this area. Would happily recommend and return ourselves

We stayed at the Camp site and booked in the pub for dinner. We both had crab starter, the minute I tasted the starter I knew we were in for a treat. 2nd course of Rump steak & husband had Venison ... wow such tasty...

We enjoyed a 9 night stay at the hotel, and we had a really lovely time. Jan and Kevin are so friendly, always make time to stop for a chat and really make you feel welcome. The food in both the pub and the hotel itself is delicious, the breakfast menu caters for everyone and nothing was too much trouble, they even catered perfectly for our 3 year old son. Our room was the perfect size, really clean with a light and airy feel to it. The grounds are beautiful too! We would highly recommend to anyone staying in Lynton, as you won’t be disappointed :)

Excellent beer, try the stag bitter

Dropped in after a hike around the coast. Was disappointed that no food was being served due to staff shortages (not the only place with this problem), but decent welcome and a lovely fresh pint of real ale, served as it should be.

I can forgive the poor service, but our food was awful! And overpriced! It’s a shame because the pub has a captive audience with the next door campsite. I just don’t expect anybody visits twice!

Contrary to previous reviews of the same date, our service, food and pub atmosphere were all excellent, so refreshing to see an establishment cater for not only tourists ,but all the local community, well done guys, throughly entertaining evening.

To begin with was somewhat surprised to get to order & collect drinks at the bar, not done that for some time! Had to fill in an order sheet at table for the evening meal which was fine but a little odd considering the drinks....

8th July at lunchtime. Arrived as one customer was leaving. So there were just two of us. On the bar a sign saying what the soup of the day was. Ordered two drinks and then asked about sandwiches. "We do not door food at lunchtime!"...

Booked a table to watch England v Denmark. lovely spacious room with large screen and uncrowded seating. Had to go downstairs for drinks, but not a problem. Good crowd and we won!

Really lovely owners and we had a great time in Lynton.

A few years back we stayed in the bed and breakfast part of the Beggars Roost Inn before attending the Lyn Valley Classic Car show and had a great time - so every time we visit relatives in nearby Parracombe we always make a point...

Fantastic food and atmosphere. Good menu choice (venison was delicious) and very friendly service. Sunday lunch was big and great quality.

Very child and dog friendly with tasty grub.

As key workers finally getting a few days off a bit of a sickener to find ourselves at a location unwilling to take our money and feed us for little apparent reason, just felt we were being fobbed off and they couldn't really be bothered....

This pub is next door to the manor hotel and has the same management and is the dining area for hotel guests. It is roomy and clean

Great bar with a fantastic selection of beers, wines and spirits. Hosted by Kevin the owner who works very hard and relentless to keep everyone happy.

Came during our half term week when caravanning nearby. Very difficult to find somewhere to eat, as everywhere was short staffed and lots of people wanted to eat out! Anyway managed to book a table. The staff were all lovely. The menu was scruffy and laminated, so we expected ordinary pub grub, but the food was surprisingly good! Nicely and artistically presented and very tasty. Would come back.

Lovely place very welcoming and comfortable service very good. Friendly and clean. Set in beautiful surroundings with a relaxing feeling about the place.

The pub itself is lovely and the staff are brilliant, starters were lovely but the food was overpriced for what it was and my food was cold on service! Would rather see a more basic ‘pub’ menu that is more manageable.
