Huntsman Inn in Teignbridge

A Christmas "get together" with friends. We sat in one of the "lodges" outside - complete with mini Christmas Tree, cushions, small blankets and a heater! Good food, good company and a good location! Attentive and helpful staff - you need to visit!!

Not much atmosphere as we the only ones in at first. Quite dark. Food average. Probably a nice place to curl up with a drink if they lit the fire (which they hadnt)

I came here today with my husband and we both had a roast beef Sunday lunch. It was absolutely lovely and so well cooked. The staff were very attentive and we’ll definitely be back. Great price and good portions.

Came in when passing to finish evening with a nice hot chocolate, the pub looked lovely and when ordering 2x hot chocolates at an eye watering £5.95 EACH!!! We thought these would be some epic hot chocolates with the works, cream, flake marshmallows but when they arrived we were shocked .....not even a chocolate or lil biscuit on the side...nothing just a mug of hot chocolate while I say hot chocolate it was basically hot milky water with a dusting of chocolate on the top! When we said to staff member that it doesn't even taste chocolatey she just grabbed them took away and returned with not even so much of a 'I'm sorry about that let me sort that out' shocking service and definitely not worth the money.

Amazing roast. Cosy, welcoming special place

Right from booking the table, through to when we left, all the staff were very helpful, friendly and welcoming. The pub itself was a classic 'English pub' and had a really pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The food was delicious and very well presented, plus the service was excellent - not rushed and no delays. They also had a good selection of beers/drinks. Would absolutely visit again!!

Just popped in for a drink. What a beautiful pub. We will definitely return for food.

Fantastic pub. Menu was small but food was great. We sat outside the atmosphere was friendly as were the people who worked there. It was a relaxed place where you could enjoy an evening.

Called in on way back from Cornwall and was super happy we did. Lovely beer garden, great food, lovely staff as well. Will definitely be back again.

Just off the A30, this is a perfect lunch stop when travelling to or from the southwest. The food is straightforward but well done, and we were warmly welcomed. There's a nice beer garden with several beach huts.

Family of 10 popped in on an offchance. Despite us only ringing half an hour before, they were very welcoming. The food was lovely, piping hot and fresh, the owner is a great cook. Can recommend their steak and ale pie, keralean cauliflower and red pepper curry. Children had pizzas and burgers, nice quality. Best meal we have had all week, would definitely return and recommend a visit if you are passing.

Cosy pub with a brilliant selection of beers. Food was delicious and the staff were super friendly. Popped in on our way down to Cornwall for lunch and will definitely visit again on our next trip.

Fab country pub serving great traditional pub grub & plenty of it. Brilliant welcoming cosy atmosphere & fantastic service

Great place, the rear garden area is fantastic we had a great afternoon there

Lovely small old pub with a lovely beer garden out the back

Beautiful pub with lovely atmosphere. Dog friendly, delicious food and friendly staff .

Beautiful little pub. The food was fantastic, very tasty and good price. Staff was wounder full credit to the owners. Can't wait to come back and try the curry.

A beautiful place to visit, the food is good but very limited menu, catering chips and overpriced desserts good atmosphere, very relaxed, but unfortunately, it's normal to be freezing cold due to the lack of heating. Two woodburners with lights in them, please get them working. They now have cabins in the beer garden, we look forward to trying these out in future

Cosy, just off the A30, and a great menu and service to tempt the travellers. Loved our short snack stop on valentine's night

Very nice pub. Just off the beaten track. Well worth a visit.

I am sorry to say that I was very disappointed and my daughter drove from Berkshire with my grandson, although toward the end of our visit the lady who came with the cheese platter had a much happier attitude than the young girl who took our order , but then that's seems to be the age that makes the difference.

Very quiet when we visited but the service and food was fantastic. My asbo dog Merlin was welcomed and behaved himself impeccably.

Delicious homecooked meal. Perfect mash, delicious pie and tender meat, peas. French tart was gorgeous to. Great pub for our small team celebration. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Thank you. Lisa

Nice atmosphere, very good service, with good food. Specials board and dog friendly.

Fantastic family lunch! This was the 3rd consecutive week for Sunday lunch for some! There was 4 Roast Beef dinners which was lovely & tender & 2 Roast Chicken which was very succulent & juicy! Absolutely delicious & lovely friendly staff & service! We’ll be back! Thank you The Huntsman Inn.

We met with friends for Sunday lunch yesterday 29th October 2023. We had 3 beef and 1 chicken for lunch (there was no other choice of meats). The chicken was good but the beef was tough and sinewy although there was plenty of vegetables but the roast potatoes were very hard to cut through. We informed the waiter (who actually asked how the meal was) and said he would report our comments back to the chef - we never heard anymore). For the very dear price of £17.95 each for one course, the meal was not up to standard to ask that price - sorry Huntsman Inn but it was not the best.

OMG, this is a wonderful pub! Cozy, friendly and comfortable. We plan to have a meal here this week. Come to Ide, visit The Huntsman! We have returned and enjoyed a lovely meal. So, more than ever, call in to The Huntsman and enjoy a fantastic English pub! P.S. Their Sunday roast is very, very popular, book if you want one!

Great lunch in a relaxing garden

We went to this great pub and sat out in one of their new lodges outside in the beer garden. We all had fantastic food and we were made to feel very welcome by staff and the landlord. I would really recommend anyone to visit this great pub with a great feel to it.

Incredible food. Good selection of drinks and impeccable service. Nothing to fault. Made our evening and will become our regular.

Excellent food good value. Lovely pods outside.

It was okay, quaint country pub, I wasn't blown away but it served its purpose. In its favour, there were good outside pods to sit in if it was raining, as seems to be the norm outside quite tatty in places, attention to detail needed to give it " that edge".

A really warm welcome from the lovely owners and staff. We were a large party who were very well looked after for a lunchtime meal. It was a really enjoyable experience and the extensive outdoor space made it a perfect venue in the sunshine. Everything was spotlessly clean, neat and smart. Indoors is quaint and very cosy and we’d have been more than happy to eat indoors had it been raining. The food was exactly what it said on the menu - they had kept it simple and delicious. All the options we had between us were really tasty and everyone enjoyed their meals. The children were also well catered for. I would definitely recommend it as a place to stop for a meal and beverage. It is homely, comfortable and friendly. The prices are extremely reasonable. Thank you to the staff for making it a great family rendezvous.

Lunchtime - lovely lady behind bar. 3 out 4 meals were fab. Steak pie £17 defo not worth it tho. Didn’t look home made and was dry. Other foods were fab. Will return .

Private function but amazingly catered for, great staff and loved the Ide Garden cocktail.

Great place, friendly staff and lovely food. Worth boking ahead as they are popular!

We went for lunch last Sunday, but found that the menu was somewhat limited. I had the burger with chips, my wife had baked Camembert. Although the service was friendly and the beer good, the quality of the meals was woefully poor. My meal appeared to be very much out of a packet - frozen peas, frozen chips and an awful burger, which seemed to be lacking in beef. My wife's meal consisted of a baked Camembert with slices of baguette, nothing else. She asked for a side salad, for which she had to pay, and this seemed to be a reminder of such a salad in the '60's - slices of tomato and cucumber on lettuce. We had been here a couple of years ago were impressed with the food at that time, but now it was extremely disappointing.

We just moved to the area and had our first meal. It was really good. Ranging from scampi, a beef stew, sausages and mash with onion sauce and a vegetarian pie, everyone enjoyed their food. Nicely presented and pleasant service, good beer too. We will be back.

Fabulous food. Great country pub.

Lovely meal reasonable prices Lovely service with a smile

I don’t live locally to the area but when I was in town I did head back, little under 12 months from my last visit. It was a Sunday and the pie came with all the roast trimmings, amazing lunch. I’ll be back..

Had a superb takeaway meal from the Huntsman's regular menu. Exceptional quality and probably £20 per head (main course and dessert). Definitely do it again and who knows, we might even dine in (the ambience and decor is very warm and homely).

We popped in on Saturday after a day's Christmas shopping un Exeter. Most tables were reserved we know why now. The landlady was incredibly friendly and found us a table. The food was well presented and lovely. The pub was atmospheric and had a lovely feel to it. We will definitely be coming back soon

It was a lovely place to eat. Cosy with a friendly atmosphere. Lovely staff and fabulous food at a great price. Will visit again.

Lovely village pub. Excellent burgers both vegetarian and meat options available. Lovely selection of Gin's!

Lovely place, with a welcoming feel, food was very tasty and good portions. Definitely worth a visit

Great atmosphere. Didn't eat there.

Pleasant atmosphere, lovely menu selection, great choice of alcohol, Parking

Parking tick. Excellent choice of food. Good choice of alcohol Dogs welcome

We booked lunch at this pub as its in the perfect location for meeting up with family, who live in South Devon, whilst we were travelling home from a holiday in Cornwall. We were pleasantly surprised to find it sitting in a quintessential little village. We were greeted with a warm welcome and our party of 13 seated at one end of the delightful bar area. Very dog friendly too. There's a lovely garden outside and ample parking. We'd been asked to pre order our meals which we were happy to do as we were a large group. The food was served efficiently, it was freshly cooked and very tasty. The staff were pleasant and made us feel very comfortable.

Most efficiently organised food preparation and service. A small country pub excelled in coping with a large number/group of customers. Reasonably priced food menu. Would certainly recommend.

Excellent motorway diversion experience. Cider and meals very high standard.

We found the quintessential local English pub, The Huntsman in Ide. Just off the A30, we stopped in for lunch, enjoyed friendly quick service, ciders on draft, plenty of food options (delish Steak & Ale pie with mash for me), sparkling clean toilets, and a beer garden out back adjacent to their large car park. On our drizzly Tuesday afternoon, a stream of locals (their regular beers pulled without ordering as soon as they popped in the door) brought the place to life. If we lived 4000 miles closer, we’d be in here every day. Lucky you, residents of Ide!

Good varied menu. Well kept draught ales.

We got caught in lot's of traffic popped in for a coffee.lovely pub great staff very helpful 🤗🤗

Trouble on the M5 so we were directed off. We found refuge in a lovely little old pub in a small village called Ide. Very cosy and good selection of beers. It was Sunday evening so food had finished but enjoyed a beer and a pack of proper pork scratchings.

What an unexpected find. We live locally and had never heard of the pub. We will certainly be back. Excellent staff, friendly, willing and attentive. Great food, great beer and fab coffee.

Best pub in the village for food, drink, service and cleanliness. Plus watch out if you go to the other pub, pub dog allowed to roam free unsupervised and can be quite nasty towards other dogs. Much better and safer at the Huntsman.

Came in for 2 coffees and I was charged £8.25!! 1 double espresso and a cappuccino. Really really rude young girl with an attitude stated that for a double espresso you have to pay for 2 full espressos. In all my life of drinking coffee I’ve never faced this!! Ridiculous and it was rubbish coffee!!

Staying at an airbnb to break the journey en route to Cornwall and decided to eat out at this lovely pub. A warm welcome was received well by our wiery selves & two small dogs after a long, hot journey. All the staff were very attentive throughout in this beautiful establishment. We decided to sit inside & ordered a bottle of wine, which was delicious. Our meals were excellent & nicely presented too. Lovely building, immaculately clean, well kept & cosy with welcoming owners & staff, who looked genuinely happy to be there too. What's not to like. Thanks guys for a smashing evening.

Delightful experience 🤩Staff,food, garden seating area 👍👌👍

Very very good 4 very helpful I got 15-minutes early little bit early but open the door because I was on my crutches and he didn't want me to struggle open the door for me

Great pub with lovely staff. Simple menu but quality food. Our local, even if it is half an hour to walk there.

Really lovely little pub with friendly staff. Stopped for Sunday lunch - but sadly its only avaliable Sept - March. But had good menu choice, I very much enjoyed a tasty goats cheese and caramelised onion pizza - traditional style thin bread. The fish and chips had good praise from my friend.

Really handy from the M5 so that you can enjoy real food and drink rather than service station food. Excellent cheese plate. Good beer.

Lovely food nice staff, great ambience

Beautiful little pub with delicious food and lovely staff

This is a perfectly good pub just off the way back from Cornwall to pretty much everywhere. It serves food until 2.00 at lunchtimes and closes from 3.00, so don't go expecting a burger and a beer mid-afternoon. Its location is what makes it a sensible stop.

First of all what service! Staff were lovely and nothing was to much trouble at all! Second the food! Our party of eight all had various meals and everything was superb. Cooked to perfection and very very tasty! All of this in a beautiful environment. Lovely pub would definitely recommend.

Lovely friendly pub, good choice of ales.

Pretty much the ultimate country pub. Simple but really really well done food at good prices, great atmosphere, really friendly staff and locals, nice decor. If you haven't been you should go

Great pub with good food and a lovely beer garden. Perfect stop on way down to Cornwall with family plus dog.

Great Food and service. Thank you.

Absolutely beautiful pub, nice and friendly staff and really good food. 100% recommended

Food and drink were really good. Great staff and the quiz night was a blast. Highly recommended

Another nice meal and wine friendly staff lovely atmosphere and great night

Lovely little pub found on google maps while on the way past, food and service top quality highly recommended

Good service, good food & nice range of beers

Came for a lunchtime extended family meet up, which we'd booked in advance. Staff were really helpful. Food was very tasty; fish and chips generous, vegetarian curry less so. An attractive proper old pub just off A30 and only a junction away from M5 so really convenient. All made for an ideal time together.

Beautiful country pub. Serves nice food and drink. Dog friendly, the staff are helpful and welcoming. Makes a good pit stop for journey.

Good food in an old style country pub

Good food and helpful pleasant staff

Staying locally we were glad to have given this place a try, great cosy atmosphere, really great hostess and best pie and mash I have ever had..five stars ⭐️

Nice cosy pub with atmosphere + excellent early afternoon lunch - served by a very pleasant and attentive lady. Only disappointment was they closed at 2.30pm..

Lovely pub in an idilic village. We were there for the annual duck race on boxing day. Great atmosphere thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Lovely seating indoors, nice cosy pub - oldest in Ide - with lovely staff, a good selection of ale and cider (and other poisons of choice). Lovely scran, and - weather permitting - a fantastic beer garden.

The Huntsman Inn is a gem, lovely pub good food and very friendly people.

Lovely food with welcoming staff, really enjoyed the evening

Very enjoyable beer and food a good pub with friendly staff.

Delicious food and lovely ambience

Very good service. Polite staff, well organised. Lovely environment. Good beer garden and pub interior. The food was not homemade, probably bought in from Brake Bros or similar so not really to my taste but the price is reflective of that and I’m sure others would be happy.

We were visiting Ide and decided to stop for lunch at Huntsman Inn. They fitted us it, despite being very busy, Food was freshly cooked and tasted great. Would recommend

Delicious home-cooked food and friendly staff. We will definitely come back!

Great food, excellent staff. Highly recommend you visit here if in the area.

Really friendly staff, good selection of beer and great food.

We had booked a meal at the Huntsman Inn, great food, good value, we managed to go back on a number of days during our stay so that I could work my way through the large variety of local and Whitley Neill gins.

Top nosh , staff are damn good at their job and overall , a very nice eating experience

Went here at last minute with friends for a pub quiz, great atmosphere, friendly locals always down for a laugh. Free cheeseboard in between rounds, cheese was absolutely exquisite. Won multiple raffle prizes and left the pub a happy bunch. Regards to the quizmaster and...

Visited with friends that live locally, who said it's a favourite of theirs. The interior is so cosy and a little quirky, which I love. I imagine it'd be especially lovely at Christmas. Service was great, with friendly, welcoming staff. We loved the Ide Cocktail- though definitely a little dangerous!! I had the steak pie which was excellent. Very filling so we didn't have dessert, but I'm sure it'd have been lovely. All average pub prices but actually I'd say it was really good value for money considering how good the food and drinks were. Absolutely would recommend if you're nearby!

Brilliant local village pub. Top notch service. I will be back
