Country Cousins in Torridge - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Came here end of august had carvery , it was lovely plenty to chose, nice and hot and staff very friendly , help you to your table ,

Convenient location. Good food with a wide selection, including carvery and sweet trolley, cooked well and 5 star service.

Had a carvery for 6 wasnt up to standard no mashed potatoes just very basic staff were very attentive just so disappointed in food

Proper old fashioned restaurant, no unnecessary bits that cost you more but are not needed. (Half a lettuce with sauce squeezed over it springs to mind, who needs that.) Good honest food carvery had 3 meats on and loads of veg to choose from. Carrots, peas, cabbage, cauliflower cheese, parsnips, green beans, ratatouille, potatoes, yorkies and other stuff I've forgotten. The rest of the menu is good too, simple and unfussy. The food is well prepared and we both enjoyed our meals. The highlight was the staff though they were all very friendly and very welcoming. They treated everyone like an old friend and that made the whole atmosphere relaxed and friendly. Dogs were allowed in too provided they are well behaved and settled down out of the way.

We came here for dinner whilst we were staying in westward Ho for a holiday. We loved the food, and the atmosphere so much we booked a table for the next night before we left. The first evening we visited we had a carvery which was gorgeous. We all enjoyed it. The staff were very friendly and wanted to help make your visit enjoyable. The second night dad had the card salad which was lovely and the rest of the party had hunters chicken and burgers. The food was cooked so well. We also had starters too x

A very good Carvery with excellent customer service. The staff carried my mums plate for her and talked her through the food on offer as she is partially sighted.

Whilst on holiday in Westward Ho! we had lunch at Country Cousins restaurant. The meal was excellent, with fresh produce and cooked well. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal and experience. The service from our waitresses, Yaz and Eden, was first-rate. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting this lovely seaside resort.

Carvery Sunday lunch was excellent - never seen a carvery with so many vegetable dishes - obviously the meat was good too! Hot, fresh and tasty. The young lady attending to us was a credit to the business - friendly and professional.

Recently moved to the area and first visited this delightful place with my daughter a month ago. Returned this evening with my parents to celebrate Fathers day. So impressed with the whole experience. Fantastic carvery (3 meats on offer) with a huge and varied choice of potatoes and veg. The staff are so friendly and helpful, even offering to carry your plate to your table. First rate service! Such a lovely atmosphere, relaxed but professionally run. The sweet trolley is not to be missed, with an amazing array of mouth watering desserts. So pleased this is on my doorstep. Highly recommend it.

The restaurant was busy (father‘s day) but the carvery arrangement worked well - just 5 min queuing for service. The carvery offered roast turkey, beef and pork (you could have all three), including all the trimmings and sauces you could imagine. We particularly appreciated the excellent (huge) choice of different vegetables and potato offerings, where you could help yourself to a tailor-made meal of your preferred choosing. Food all tasted great and price was also very reasonable at £15.95 pp (with no need for starters or desserts) making a very reasonable Sunday lunch

Visited this restaurant for Sun carvery lunch last week with family and it was excellent. A choice of 3 meats served with a large selection of vegetables all piping hot and the tray was then carried to the table by helpful waitresses. The sweet trolley is a unique feature here and there was a large selection of delicious desserts. The staff were very friendly and efficient and I would highly recommend a visit.

Visited here for a Sunday lunch and Carvery was good, lots of veg choices plenty of meat given! Staff are all very friendly and welcoming. The biggest quirk that I had never seen before was the dessert trolley which I’m told is from the old days so nice to have a little insight on how pubs used to serve. Keep up the good work guys and if I’m ever in the area again, I would definitely book.

As a large family group of 15 with many different dietary requirements we had a lovely lunch with excellent service and good quality, tasty food. The carvery was a hit and the choice of deserts was a big hit with every generation. Huge thanks

Went here twice in October when I was on holiday in the area. I went for the carvery at £14.50 which a lot of customers seem to go for. A choice of meats which are carved for you and then help yourself to veg etc. Beef on the carvery one night was a bit tough but thats how it can be with big joints. Nice pint of Golden Pig beer at £5.10 The staff insist on carrying your plate back to the table so perhaps they dont want a dropped mess on the carpet or they think their customers are a bit doddery ! Quite an impressive sweet trolley is brought round like they used to in the old days in restaurants. I didnt have any so cant vouch for what was on offer. Clean and tidy place and decent toilets. Note this place is not open Mondays or Tuesdays. I would recommend this place

Came across Country cousins tonight having walked along Westward Ho. The reception we received was wonderful and the food was fantastic. All the staff were friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. They also have a dessert trolley which is amazing. Highly recommend this restaurant.

have called in numerous times on the off chance and have been met with very welcoming staff. the carvery is incredibly good with a good choice of meats and fresh vegetables, the roast potatoes are gorgeous. all of the staff are very attentive and the service is always spot on. sweets are on a sweet trolley, a traditional touch that is rarely seen but something I love.

The food and service were the best we've had at.weatward ho. So filling wish we had found this restaurant years.ago Very good value for money and portion size is very good and the staff couldn't do enough to help you

went in on the Wednesday evening after being highly recommended and my goodness , so good ! service, meet and greet, food, cleanliness met the owner, can't fault a thing, what ever happened to proper vegetables ? cousins has them all! so what happened next? we went back Thursday and Friday

Excellent food and service.... so accommodating for all our extra needs .... waitresses are amazing! Everyone goes out of their way to accommodate you. Carvery is Excellent @

Called to book for Sunday lunch late Saturday afternoon to find fully booked until 2.30pm. So it was a late lunch but worth waiting for. Well presented carvery, 3 choices of meat and all the vegetables were hot and freshly cooked. Great choice of desserts. The waiting staff were all very polite and helpful. Would certainly recommend and it was dog friendly.

This was our first visit to Country Cousins in Westward Ho and we were very impressed. We were given a very friendly welcome and taken to our Table by a waitress who made us feel at home, took our Drinks order and gave us the menu to peruse. We both decided on the Carvery, and what a good choice that was- Beef, Turkey and Gammon, a choice of potatoes, so many varieties of vegetables, stuffing, Yorkshires and Gravy. Everything was beautifully presented and of a high standard. Sadly we did not have room for any Dessert although they looked delicious. We will return when next in the area.

Been coming to this Restaurant for the last 8 years, Food is always excellent and the staff are lovely, The carvery meat and vegetables are supured would highly recommend.

My wife and I recently spent four days in Westward Ho! with family and visited this lovely restaurant three times during our stay, having a carvery two of the nights and a breakfast on one of the mornings. This place is faultless. The food is amazing, and homemade, and the staff are very friendly, attentive and you can tell they are a close knit team of locals who genuinely care about making your visit pleasurable and the very best meal experience you can possibly have, with service over and above what you can usually expect in this day and age. As well as the carvery, (which I assure you will be the nicest carvery you will ever have) they have a full à la carte and table d'hôte menus, a good old fashioned sweet trolley and a selection of hot classic British puds to choose from and smother with custard. There is nothing negative to say about this place at all. Highly recomnended by me to anybody visiting the area. Make sure this place is top of the list when you are in town. It certainly will be top of mine next time I am. Thank you everyone. You are doing a great job. Just In case you’re wondering I’m the guy with the beard in the awesome hat and the awesome boots.

What a fantastic,well run buisness. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and the food is brilliant. In todays world of fancy food this shows you that you can run a successful buisness without re inventing the wheel.

Wow, this has to be one of the best carveries I have had, top-notch! My family loved the meal and the service was excellent.

My favourite place to eat in Westward Ho! for a carvery, fantastic meal every time, great staff & owner always professional, friendly & polite. The sweet trolley is always a thing of beauty. Can’t holiday in the Ho! Without at least one visit here.

Absolutely amazing. Fish pie was the best I have tasted. My partner loved his trout wrapped in salmon it does have a,fancy name but I can't remember it . Both children meals were lovely too . We will definitely be recommending you and we will...

Been coming here for the last four years when on holiday. Food always excellent and very friendly staff. Never had anything to complain about.

We visited Country Cousins last year when holidaying in Westward Ho! Went again this year, twice, once for Sunday lunch, then later in the week for dinner. I am not always easily pleased, my nickname is Hyacinth Bouquet! We cannot fault the food we had...

The staff were very attentive. They gave the family time to decide what they wanted, especially the children. When we knew what we wanted, the meals were fresh and hot when they arrived, we will definitely be going back again.

As soon as we entered the restaurant we were greeted by friendly staff. The carvery was delicious with an amazing selection of veg. Then the desert cart came, it was hard to decide what to choose as it all looked yummy! Highly recommend

Every year when travelling from Manchester to visit family we go here for the carvery on a Sunday. Best Sunday lunch for miles. Service e cellent and food piping hot and very fresh. We cannot fault it.

This restaurant offers a wide menu range and the quality of food is superb and at a reasonable price. One half of the restaurant area is dog friendly which suits our family well. Whilst we have frequented on a number of occasions in the past...

We had an amazing breakfast and a really reasonable price. The veggie breakfast was delicious too. Staff were lovely Highly recommend

We eat at Country Cousins every time we visit Westward Ho! The restaurant weren’t able to seat us straight away as we hadn’t booked, but were able to accommodate us half an hour later. The traditional atmosphere is nice and we appreciate the fact there...

Food was nice, but they didn't serve flagamanjingo's which was a tad upsetting. However the burger was nice, and I get a flagamanjingo anywhere else.

absoloutely lovely. the staff were delightful and the only bad thing i have to say is that it takes too long reading out all the puddings! defo reccomend!

We enjoyed the Carvery, meat was good and varied vegetables to choose. but the restaurant is super dated - stuck in the 80s. It definitely needs updating if this place is to continue being appealing to the modern market. The servers were friendly.

Another fabulous meal! My wife and I visited for lunch, she had the carvery and I had the mixed grill and both meals were superb. The staff are always polite and friendly and a pleasure to interact with, the sweet trolley is stocked with proper...

A large group of local volunteers with RNLI. Managed to get us all together. Great staff. Frank and I had a lovely meal. Gammon with all the trimmings. Beautiful. Cooked well. Tasty. Thank you again.

Heard such good things … unfortunately it was quite disappointing the food was over cooked with no flavour clearly aimed at the over 65’s hot mush . The restaurant it’s self is out dated and dirty the net curtains had rust stains in the bathroom...

We visited for a carvery a few months ago, and it was really good, so we returned last week, but it was disappointing as it wasn’t like the first visit. The gravy was ‘thin’, the potatoes had that pre-cooked and reheated taste and texture, and...

If I could have rated this higher I would have. Came here twice during our one week Christmas break, both times could not be faulted. Both of us had the carvery each time, it was so good the first time we had to try it...

Have visited Country Cousins twice in the last week. First time we had the carvery and half a rack of ribs with chicken in batter and chips. The carvery was lovely, the rack of ribs was OK but spoilt by using frozen chips. Visited again...

The Sunday carvery is excellent value and all the food is cooked to a high quality. Help yourself to the veg the meats are placed on your plate. They generally have choice of 3 meats. Great customer service and definitely worth a visit.

First time visit to Country Cousins even though we are local! The restaurant is everything we were told it was. Quaint inside and much more spacious inside than expected. The service was efficient and friendly. Our waitress answered all our questions regarding gluten free options...

Our first visit to Country Cousins and certainly not our last. The service was brilliant, the staff were attentive without being intrusive and the food was hot and tasty.

We visited today for a friends 50th celebration as we are staying in Westward Ho for the weekend. The food was lovely and the service was excellent. Mr Cousins should be very pleased with his staff as they are so nice and helpful!

Excellent service and the sweet trolley at the end of the meal was wonderful. However, the carvery was disappointing. The roast potatoes were not crisp, the meats were dry and the stuffing was not very tasty. I’m sure we’ll go back, but we’ll try a...

I’m a little perplexed at the amount of reviews waxing lyrical about the carvery. It was ok, but not staggering. I’d agree with the plate sizes are on the smaller side, but for me what stopped it from being any more than 3 stars was...

What an absolute joy!! Fantastic venue, clean , friendly staff , excellent food ! We were greeted by Ella , one of the front of house staff . What a remarkable young lady ! Polite, super helpful and very knowledgeable. We were seated very promptly,...

Can't fault it . Excellent service happy staff food exceptional quality and taste. Who needs Michelin restaurants when you have this to offer

We called in whilst en route to our holiday destination further down the coast,we had the Sunday roast, the food is ok but in all honesty not particularly good value on account of the plate sizes .. you would need a degree in construction to...

Excellent service as always, staff are very friendly and professional. The carvery is tasty and always hot and fresh, always bringing out fresh vegetables. They are still COVID aware with screens remaining at the edge of the tables. Will see you all again next year.

If your ever in the vicinity of Westwood Ho please give the country cousin's a visit this place blew us away, we've never experienced service like it, 1st they sit you at a table ask you what drink you would like and if you would...

Beautiful clean restaurant, fantastic food, ala carte menu available as well as a carvery, wonderful staff, this is the best restaurant in westward ho by far, would recommend to everyone,

Looked forward to returning to CC as had visited three years ago. Certainly was not disappointed, had the Sunday carvery again this time and it was great, lots of meat and a huge choice of vegetables. Regrettably too full to try one of their deserts....
