Fingle Bridge Inn in West Devon

Lovely setting. Nice baguettes And good Beer

Such an amazing place. Just a pitty the atmosphere food and service didn't do it any justice

Wonderful location and fantastic food and staff. Sunday roast is perfect. Other menu food is well cooked, tasty and varied choices. Staff and management are lovely, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend

Lovely find after a few miles walk, beautiful location, helpful and friendly staff and good food!

Very busy only serve food until 5pm

Great riverside pub, the food on offer is very good indeed, with good portion sizes. The staff are all attentive to your requests and the service is quite fast. The pub has the extra advantage of having several beautiful riverside walks on the doorstep to either have some exercise before your meal or walk off the meal when you have had it. OK the drive down to it is a little difficult with narrow roads, but it is well worth the effort.

Incredible place. Really good food.

Delightful. Gorgeous setting (if you don't mind driving narrow lanes!) and great food. Dog friendly, with lots of good walks including a level walk along the river for those with accessibility issues (note this is on gravel). Would love to come back!

Only wanted a quick mid walk drink. Had to wait to be seated at a table and it was table service only - even for drinks only. Waited twenty minutes for our order to be taken and another ten for them to arrive. Charged nearly £2 for a can of coke! Fantastic setting but if you only want a drink it’s better to take your own. Disappointing.

Just popped in for drinks but looks

Free to visit and situated near a stone built pub. Free parking before the pub on the side of the road.

Very friendly and lovely location. Price for food and drink good.

After a nice walk in this beautiful area, a nice place to relax

If you fancy a brilliant place, for anything from an cuppa to Dinner, in the bottom of a wooded gorge, on an idyllic riverbank. The Fingle Bridge Inn is the place. You can then walk off the calories in the woodland paths, across the bridge. We love it- but I can't resist the cream tea, every time! ..

Went on a hike from Drogo Castle. Lovely pub with gorgeous scenery. I would say their food was OK but it's was freshly prepared and they had a nice selection of ciders. I would definitely be happy to return if I am in the area.

Situated at the end of a few miles of single track roads is fingles bridge inn set on the river teign and looks breathtaking. Opens at 11am.

Excellent food, the staff were superb . Atmosphere lovely with the river slowly running across it's stoney bottom, fish jumping while people let their Dogs jump in and out of the water.

Excellent stop for a good range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and food. Beware, it is a narrow and steep drive to get there - not for the faint-hearted.

A beautiful setting next to the river

We came for dinner and also lunch the next day. All the staff were very friendly, the food was perfect, just as described. I asked for a different chutney than on the menu and this was treated with a 'no problem'.

Wonderful location - worth the hike down from Drogo.

Staff were brilliant. Mocha was the perfect drink, recommended by the bar person. Apologies I did not ask for your name. Beer was excellent.

Wow!! What a gem 💎 Very polite staff, quick service, and amazing food 😋 Topped off with a fantastic view... 100% recommend a visit 👌

Amazing service, food and location. Would recommend highly to anyone 👌

Perfect spot for a drink post walk. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We sat outside overlooking the river where the children can paddle while you have a drink.

Great little spot, but tricky to drive to if your a nervous driver as very tight roads (if you're a confident driver it's still frustrating as you get stuck behind the nervous drivers). That being said we want to go back soon as it was a nice place to go for a walk then food after. Food was fairly good, standard pub grub.

Great food in an amazing location. What a great find.

What a lovely inn. The setting by the river Teign is wonderful. Stopped mid walk for lunch. Friendly welcome and super quick service. The beer and beef baguette were excellent and very fairly priced. This inn is well worth finding. Once you've enjoyed a great pub meal you can walk up the river and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Highly recommended.

Absolutely lovely pub, great location half way along our walk, lovely service from the staff and delicious food/ drinks

Has to be the prettiest pub ever.......absolutely gorgeous and all the staff were so lovely........

Beautiful place, food excellent at a very good price. Great service 👏 well recommend this place. 👌

Beautiful place and lovely food

One of the most picturesque pubs we’ve ever been to. The food was delicious, the service was brilliant and the staff were so friendly. Would not hesitate to go back!

Beautiful spot, well cooked pub food, just what you need after a stiff walk. Only problem is it's popularity; it gets very crowded and one can never be sure of getting a table. Not their fault of course.

I LOVE this place! The food was delicious and the service five stats. The scenery is breathtaking, luckily the weather was lush so the visit was enjoyable

Lovely food. Great friendly service but more importantly responded quickly to our request for First Aid to a lady who had fallen about 5 minutes walk away from the Pub. I didn’t get the lady’s name but a big 🙏

Staff were friendly and helpful. Great, amazing location. We sat outside overlooking the river on a beautiful, sunny day in June. The food we ordered arrived luke warm and would best be described as low-end school canteen type food. We did raise this with the young man serving us, and he was great. The roads to Fingle Bridge are narrow. There is reasonable parking available along the road. Maybe choose the time and date for your visit to avoid congestion.

Absolutely beautiful setting for a wedding! As a wedding photographer I was spoilt for choice in where to take the couple for photographs here! The wedding reception at the Inn was amazing and the guests were well looked after.

Absolutely fantastic! Every time! Lovely warm welcome, delicious food, wonderful place. Can't wait to be back! Thank you for looking after us! See you soon! Xx

Absolutely beautiful location! We visited a national trust nearby (Castle Drogo) and was recommended to visit here for some food. 10/10 would definitely recommend! Food was affordable, service was quick and portions were more than enough!

Absolutely fabulous! Every morsel delicious! Service fantastic! View amazing! Scones wonderful and definitely made up the correct way!

Reasonable food. Service OK. Staff could be more friendly & welcoming. Great location.

Stunnig views, great service, and delicious food 😋

A1 location, only had a coffee so can't comment on the food. Friendly and efficient staff

A beautiful pub in a stunning location. A highly recommended place to quench ones thirst after a hike through the stunning valley. I am definitely coming back for the fish and chips which looked absolutely phenomenal.

Came here weekly as a child with my family, and came again now I'm all grown up! STILL LOVE IT HERE!!! Tranquil, pet friendly, disabled access, large and clean. The food is really good, the beverages are crisp and fresh, the coffees are nice, and the desserts are also tasty. I highly recommend the smoked seafood platter with a portion of chips on the side.

A very beautiful setting, tucked away in the depths of the country wide. A real gem and the BEST scones and cream ever! A special place ⭐️

Biked here from Okehampton which was an adventure along country lanes. Sadly I got here too late for the carvery so opted for the scampi & chips. Was allowed to use a socket to charge up the bike battery to help me on my return trip. The meal arrived fairly quick and was very good. Unfortunately they shut at 5:30 on Sundays and the England match was kicking off at 5. A very good visit in my first days holiday down here in a beautiful setting.

Gorgeous pub by the river and bridge. It was a nice day and absolutely packed but the servers were still fast and smiley and the food (and life saving cold pint) was perfect.

Lovely pub in perfect location with friendly staff. The food however was overpriced and nothing special.

One of the most beautiful pubs ever. Yes it's a nightmare to get there down a single windy track but it's so worth it it's such a pretty place. The food is always lovely, not the cheapest but you're paying to sit by the view and enjoy the river.

Would highly recommend lovely location prices good and great service 👌

Dogs have been falling ill and some have sadly passed away after being walked here. My cocker spaniel became very ill following a walk here. No obvious signs to be seen before going over the bridge advising of this. DO NOT BRING YOUR DOGS HERE

Brought friends as we knew from many visits we would not be disappointed & of course we weren't. 7 of us all had various meals & they were all lush, great real ales too...the service excellent especially as they were soo busy.. can't praise them highly enough, & the cute little local Robin was an added bonus!

Fantastic pub Well worth the drive

Excellent food and good prices, stunning location, we’ll be back!!!

Perfect. Great food. Beautiful Location and friendly staff. Great value for money. Well worth a visit.

Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. We just stopped for a beverage after our walk and it was a perfect day to enjoy it outside.

Absolutely picturesque well worth a visit, even pop into the pub and have lunch on the riverside.

Great place to stop for a drink or meal. Check varying opening times.

Burger has the same "meat" you get in a school canteen

A beautiful pub nestled right on the River Teign. This was a perfect stop for refreshments before starting a long walk on a hot summer afternoon. We sat outside, where there are plenty of umbrellas for shade, and the view of the river (and bridge) is superb. It was incredibly busy, as it was a sunny Sunday afternoon, but the staff dealt with the rush brilliantly. On arrival, we were met with a sign that told us to wait patiently to be seated. While it may feel frustrating if you have to wait for a little while, it is just because they are waiting for tables to free up. Once a server came over, we were seated immediately and our orders taken promptly. Drinks and chips arrived within ten or so minutes, and it was easy to go inside to pay. The staff were superb, very friendly and happy to chat. The toilets are clean, the whole pub appears to be well looked after, and the chips were perfectly cooked. As a bonus, the pub is adjacent to public footpaths, namely the Fisherman's Path, where you can start different walks, such as up towards Hunter's Path and Castle Drogo, with the pub waiting at the finish line.

A beautiful pub with friendly staff and amazing views. Lovely local cider on tap and a great range of options for coeliacs!

We had 1 cream tea and 1 tea with plant milk for my vegan wife. I was shocked when I saw I had been charged 40p on top for plant milk. We have never anywhere been charged extra for plant milk . I asked and was told it’s because it expensive. I did not rescue e any discount for the milk we do not have and what we did get was one tiny jug of plant milk , my jug of milk was three times the size! This pub say it’s vegan friendly I’m sorry but you have let yourself down penalising for vegans. I know it’s only 40p but it is the principle especially when the menus clearly dates 40p a glass for oat milk not 40p for a splash with our tea.

Beautiful seating by the river, amazing fun with the family and a cold drink makes it even better. Would recommend that everyone does this at least once if you visit the south west

Looks and feels like a postcard. Great food and service and an amazing spot to just sit and enjoy the surroundings

Always a lovely place to a walk and lunch. Service sith a smile. Menu is a tad limited and there isn't the typical pub classics on there

Incredible to find this hidden gem, truly majestic and a cream tea to die for. Wonderful place.

Reasonable prices with good large portions. Bit chilly so we sat inside; but it is much better if you can get table outside by the river.

Absolutely beautiful pub in a magical spot. Great staff. Perfect service. Reasonable prices food. Don’t tell anyone else!

Great setting but be aware of the roads if you are driving here, we walked from Barley Meadow campsite (note, lots of elevation to return). Good value food, service was really good despite being very busy. Would certainly return. Nice riverside walk nearby.

Lovely stopover pub midway riverside on what surprised me as an exceptional walk with stunning scenery. river was full and fast flowing after heavy rainfall months which made it all the more exhilarating for walkers though not so for farmers and hospitality businesses.

Gorgeous fresh cream tea by the water, and lovely smiley service.

It is a lovely place to catch a bite to eat or just a drink on a warm day. Dog friendly, and staff are always happy to help. There is a good selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks and cater for outdoor as well as indoor seating. They are always helpful in bringing out a chair if you are unable to sit on the outdoor benches. It's not the cheapest place in the world but the food is fresh and it's mostly local produce. It's lovely sitting close to the river and seeing and listening to all the different wildlife in the area.

Loved this place for lunch after a long walk!

An excellent pub with delicious food, amazing view, friendly stuff and lots of dogs :)) my burger was great ! That’s exactly what I needed after a long hike. 100% recommended, best pub experience so far

Great food, quick and friendly service. Definitely be going again

Great pub in a gorgeous location! Staff are incredibly friendly and go out of their way to help you. Good pub food with generous portions and a good pint!

We have been here several times and love the ambience. It's one of our favourite places for a walk and pint stop. Had the Sunday carvery today which was very filling and tasty. Nothing fancy but lovely and pubby food. Staff always very polite and the outside area is a dream.

A lovely experience. Great food, attentive staff and a warm welcome for our dog! We will be back again very soon! Thank you!

A lovely little place with picturesque views over the gorge. We have visited twice in the last month. The Sunday roast was lovely on my first visit, however, I would be prepared for long wait for the carvery as it's very popular. My husband and children were finished their meals by the time I returned to the table with my carvery. We also took my mum along on mothers day and even though we got there 45 minutes before the start of lunchtime, all the indoor seating had already gone and there was a large queue forming. We ended up sitting outside in the rain eating our dinner, which wasn't ideal. Despite this, the staff were warm and welcoming and the food was good (and hot which was good as we were all freezing!) The bar is dog friendly, which is fantastic, and the staff always make a fuss of my big german shepherd when we visit. The location is what really sets this nice wee place apart from the other local pub/restaurants. It's beautiful!

We visited here for lunch, then went for a lovely walk along the river nearby. The place was busy as it usually is and great for dogs families and cold drinks during summer or hot days. I felt the food was nicely written in the menu but expensive and oddly presented, the staff not really overly attentive and the tables were not being emptied quickly enough so quite disappointing overall.

Our first visit to the Fingle Bridge Inn although the weather wasn't the best it was a beautiful place. Being Mother's Day it was extremely busy and no seating in the restaurant only the bar but the service and food was lovely for a light lunch. Will definitely be going back there again.

We had a wonderful Carvery Lunch at The Fingle Bridge Inn today. The Meats were beautifully cooked with a choice for everyone. An abundance of fresh vegetables. As a Coeliac they went over & above to accommodate me. We were all fully satisfied.

Interesting place. Lovely location after a nice walk on one of the many trails around the area with very picturesque views. Made to feel welcome. Our meals were served quickly and the Guinness was very good. Large plates of very pleasant and tasty food

The Sunday roast was amazing!!! Lovely setting, even on a rainy day.

Lovely setting. Excellent service from the two most polite, helpful and friendly young chaps at the Bar. Thank you

Lovely spot, great halfway spot for some woodland walks. Benches on the bank of the river are perfect

I've driven past this Inn so many times admiring it. Yesterday I got to go for lunch. It's very busy, very popular with walkers & doggy lovers. Can recommend the carvery, fresh & very tasty. The staff are very friendly. The weather wasn't too good but the outside has seating & sat beside the river. Beautiful scenery, will definitely be back 😊

Well worth a visit when in the area. Great walking spot as well ....nice 4 mile loop along the valley to Castle Drogo. Really friendly pub for food and a drink . .and a stunning location and the end of a dead end road Food was standard pub offerings. The bacon burger was particularly good ..as was the fish and chips. Highly recommended

We stopped by Fingle Bridge Inn along the "Hunters and Fisherman's path to Castle Drogo" hike in mid January. It is situated right along the river, in a very picturesque location. It has that traditional welcoming pub/inn atmosphere, and most importantly very dog friendly! The cream tea we had here was wonderful, with warm scones and a very generous container of clotted cream.

A fantastic pub located in an Idyllic setting. Not satisfied with that , the staff go out of thier way to be welcoming and accommodating. Very dog friendly, I have never seen so many well behaved dogs in a pub. All well behaved. Food lovley and prompt. Beer was good too. Throughly recomended

Great food. Great place to eat. Highly recommend.

Friendly, welcoming staff here: thank you for making us feel at home.

I think this place must have changed hands since I last visited ages ago. What a transformation, great food and efficient friendly service now

Had a great catch up with friends here on New Years Eve. Staff were amazing and attentive but not overly so and the food and drink was great. Scenery absolutely beautiful despite the weather. Will definitely be coming back!

Cyclists & Doggies Not too busy.. Susie, Totnes / Dartington 🕊️

Pubs don't come with a much better back drop than this.

A must visit after a walk in the woods for a pint or two in front of the fire

Cozy inn by the river, great location for a walk in the woods followed by a pub lunch. Great views and good choice of food served promptly.
