Great service and great food. The staff were super friendly and also pet friendly too. They made sure my dog had water and gave him treats. The food was really good and we had a generous portion too. I would definitely recommend a visit. We sat outside and there was plenty of room but the staff didn’t forget about us and checked we were all ok…including the dog 😊

After visiting Captain Jack's in 2023, we were not disappointed on our return visit! The pub decor is great with a good amount of space indoors and outside, the beer is good and the food tasty! Staff are friendly and make tourists feel welcome! A great visit for either lunch or an evening meal!

There is seating inside and out. Most people were sitting outside as the weather was good. If you go round the back there are toilets with 1 step up, the width of the toilet is the width of the door. There could be more toilets, not sure where. The meals we had were hot. The staff were friendly and helpful. There is a small car park at the rear.

Nice big place, food wasn't as good as I thought it maybe. Starters seemed to be in my opinion to be microwaved. Steamed gyoza shouldn't have crispy edges. Chips were good.

Unfortunately had a terrible experience here. Ordered food at the bar (world food special), was told 45 minute wait so paid for food and ordered a pint while we waited. 45 minutes later, was told they’d run out of food. Got a refund and apology but left very hungry with no alternative options as everywhere else closed by now. Cannot understand how an establishment could not know they didn’t have enough food. Won’t revisit sadly, as it looks like it could have been a nice place.

Good god what happened. This place used to have great food, atmosphere and drink selection. Went in poor vegetarian choice, very quiet, and changes to drinks available so not much option. Didn't eat this time as choices poor

Came here as The Red Barn was full. Glad we did. Lots of seating outside and the food was fantastic. Average of about £15 a head but well worth it in my opinion. It was on a Friday and food was served from 1730. Definitely a revisit in the future

This is the first time we have come across Captain Jacks in all the years coming to Woolacombe. What can i say what a beautiful Pub the garden was a lush sun trap and loads of seating. The staff were very friendly from the first moment we arrived. They even loved our bulldog Elsa Dog treats behind the bar and plenty of dog bowls to go round. We were only down for a weekend but went in a few times our sort of pub where we could just relax. Good food menu on offer as well. High recommend giving it a visit.

We used Trip advisor to find a restaurant in Woolcombe and this one looked ideal for 3 of us plus 2yr old... so we managed to park on the road next to it and walked in... We liked the look and the signage outside... Anyway went in main area and walked towards bar and saw some tables to sit and eat at... just as we`re about to sit down the lady at the bar told us there was no food being served tonight, (no reason why and my gut is wasn`t interested and wanted us out of there).. so we all turned around and did "the walk of shame" past the locals... I can appreciate they may have had an issue that night, but was not impressed by the bar lady who just seemed to not be bothered and said nothing but we`re not serving tonight (think she even looked up for more than 2 seconds)..... we checked the website which says it served food and facebook site before and no mention of an issue... not sure what happened but not family friend that night... Shame really as pub looked okay to us

Situated in woolacombe up the side street next to the amusements at the end,first time here as we normally go to the red barn. Drinks are much cheaper here than the red barn. The beer garden is set in a court yard with comfortable,ample seating.there is also free pool and they also have live music nights. If your a rum drinker they have lots of different rums to try. Music playing I the background while you drink and socialise outside. I really recommend you pay Captain Jack's a visit. It used to be a farmhouse,the oldest building in woolacombe. Lots of history.

My husband and I were staying in Ilfracombe last week. We thought we would visit Captain Jacks for my birthday following the reviews. The menu looked good on the website. When we arrived we were shocked to see it closed. Nothing was noted on their website to state it was closed. Extremely annoying and poor

We went to this place each day on our October holiday and it’s so great to have. Amazing atmosphere, lovely people, great food, a free pool table and the best cider I’ve ever had (Devon Mist). It feels like a Pirates Of The Carribean pub in a way and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

We found ourselves in Woolacombe for the afternoon and fancied a break for the walking. We saw signs for Captain Jacks Bar. On first impressions, this is a great little pub with lots of atmosphere. It was a sunny day, so the beer garden was busy, which was no problem as we sat inside. The only issue was the live band they had playing. It was very loud and was a person with a fiddle. The noise went through me! Because of this, we only stayed for one drink.

This pub has a large restaurant area at the back, it's spacious with lots of seating choices, the decor is pirate themed naturally! The menu is varied with something for everyone, I would say affordable pub classics. It can get rowdy in the bar, hence 4* for atmosphere. There is a side entrance though, you don't have to walk through the pub to get to the restaurant.

Great place we found for lunch whilst having a stroll around Woolacombe with the dogs. Everything was great the only slight negative from a personal point of view was beer choice as i like a cask and only proper job available which i fancied a change from so opted for a cider. This would not deter me from returning if in the area as everything else was excellent and the place is really quirky.

Nice little pub in Woolacombe. We arrived into Woolacoombe early evening on a Friday to find the town pretty much closed! Especially, and surprisingly the Chippy. After a quick wander we came across Captain Jack's. Despite the early hour, it was only eight o'clock the kitchen was closed but given that there was 10 of us the the staff bent over backwards to look after us. They were lovely. The food was very puby but excellent quality, there wasn't a disappointed person amongst us. Fair play to Captain Jack's, and well done to the lovely staff.

Absolutely love it. Walked in the door and asked for a " Hunters chicken ", as advertised on the window outside. And" Joe" the barmaid got it sorted for me and a curry for the other half. And a lovely pint of " Mena du" into the bargain. Worth every penny. Will definitely be back and looking at booking a room at the Woolacombe Bay Hotel next year.. a beautiful little town/ village. Fantastic beach ( spent an hour just watching the surfers in the surf ). All in all... an excellent visit.

Old style pub, found by chance. The food was good, I'd recommend the chilli beef on chips, topped with mature cheese and jalapeños, very tasty. My wife had the cod and chips; the batter was crisp (not burnt, not soggy) the fish was firm and tasty. The atmosphere was lively and friendly, which was down to the two guys running it that night. I would recommend a vist to captain Jack's 👍

Not sure how there are so many 4 star reviews. Not expensive. I would say perfect price considering the excellent quality in food. Home made burgers, super curry (warming spice) and massive hunters chicken. Have to comment on the side salad being a great portion size too. It costs so little do go the extra mile and this place does it in spades. Service was lovely and serving local beers. Please support this place so it continues to be here for years to come.

I stayed in Lynmouth for 3 days recently and this lovely traditional pub was one of my 'locals' for the duration. A terrific atmosphere on the Thursday as it seemed all the World and his Wife were in. Great selection of ales and ciders. I ate here earlier, fish n chips, which were excellent. A great pub in Lynmouth.
