London Inn in Teignbridge

We're regular visitors to this pub and it never disappoints

Family meal. Food excellent service friendly

Great pub, excellent food, lovely atmosphere

Enjoyed a fabulous lunch of mussels and steak with friends- remarkable value and cooked to perfection- great service and quality food. I was at the Ivy in Exeter the day before and can honestly say the food at the London Inn was infinitely better and half the price

Beautiful pub. Fantastic service and beautiful food. The pie looked unreal and our meals were very tasty. We would definitely return.

Well....the clocks have changed....its dark and nearly winter....and we decided to treat ourselves to a lovely roast!! It was with slight trepidation because our experience of eating out and having a decent roast are minimal...... Sadly, we should have stayed at home and not bothered. We have been going to The London Inn for years....but progressively year on year our experience ( and the prices) have got worse. This evening, without doubt, we had the worst roast....ever. We asked for Pork but none was left. Either Beef or Chicken. Reluctantly we have one of each. The chicken was dry, the beef was rare. The 3 potatoes ( yes 3 each !! ) were tough and probably been stewing for 2 or 3hrs. The broccoli was rock hard and the leak was....well we don't know what it was, but certainly not edible. The carrots were crispy and burnt. Frankly, we have no idea how a "chef" could actually plate these 2 meals and not clearly see they were totally unacceptable. He needs to be sacked. This was all for the princely sum of £17.95 !! Ps the wine was ok but we poured it back into the bottle, paid £21 and beat a hasty retreat.... We will never return ....

Superb pub. Excellent food. A very wide choice of food on the menu. Great selection of beers & ales. All in a fantastic setting. The manager was very welcoming & service excellent. Highly recommended.

Perfect evening the staff were outstanding and couldn't be more helpful the food was just amazing too we will be back

Enjoyed lunch here. They were helpful with checking dishes to suit particular food allergies.

Food and service was amazing. I stayed in the room which was extremely comfortable

First time eating here. Great food and friendly service. Good price as well.

Was staying in the B&B next door and they recommend I visit for my dinner - glad they did as it was absolutely spot on in all areas. Would be a regular if I didn't live 300 miles away......

Food was amazing. Service a little slow but that was due to a new member of staff and we dropped in without a booking. We Will definitely be back again as the food was just lovely, highly recommend

Fantastic pub found by accident. The staff were brilliant and the tapas was exceptional as was the Provence Rose wine. From the moment we walked in it was a great experience and at no time did we feel rushed even though the pub was busy.I can only say go try this pub it was fab.Thanks to the staff who made it such a great lunch.

Called in for a club sandwich 🥪 and a drink, sat out the front, lovely surroundings

Just been to the london inn from Yorkshire to see friends. Atmosphere and food was excellent and when we struggled to find a taxi the landlord Tum took us back to our holiday home in Dawlish. Wouldnt accepg payment so we intend to donate to the RNLINon his behalf. Going the extra mile for customers doesn't do him justice

Warm welcome and enjoyed the food 👍👍

Eating in the pub is great. Nice atmosphere Decent food Dog friendly Best to book in advance Nice covered outside area beside the village green Love the option for Take Away Fish and Chips £8.

On route back from a visit to Bath we stopped off at the London Inn for a roast and boy what a fabulous roast it was. I chose the beef it was melt in your mouth. Everything on my plate not only looked amazing the taste was incredible. We will be going back as it’s setting in the village opposite a beautiful bowling green. And the sea behind it we were blown away. Thank you team it was amazing.

Lovely food, at great value in wonderful surroundings. Suggestion: announce orders by table number, just as you demand at the bar when ordering!! Saves one's food going to another table!

Overall had a great dinner. The nice things: - decor was nice and suited the seaside location, I like it when a venue showcases local artists artwork on the walls - good selection of drinks - staff were friendly The areas to improve: - the patatas bravas wasn’t close to the real thing, they had boiled me potatoes rather than cubed fried potatoes… disappointing - the plant based burger was ok, but seriously let down by the incredibly small portion of chips. No side salad, no coleslaw… so overall a fail As mentioned, overall a pleasant evening but felt it represented poor value. Thankfully the first time in a long time I’ve felt that way leaving a restaurant/pub

Come every every year on our annual holiday in Shaldon. Nothing has changed at The London Inn. Food was superb. I had the Surf and Turf which was perfect. My wife had Monk Fish which was equally as good. Staff were very helpful and attentive, well don

Wonderful pub, kind people and great food.

Great place to sit and relax, great food, great ales and friendly staff.

Nice pub good atmosphere, staff very friendly . Food was nice , I've had better . Good choice of drinks on the bar .

Excellent food good friendly service a really nice visit

We went for dinner at the London Inn and couldn’t recommend it more highly. All of the staff were fantastic and were very welcoming. They dealt with dietary requirements in a very reassuring and professional way and the food was delicious. The thing that really stood out for me was that I really felt like they wanted to go out of their way to accommodate us and that nothing was too much trouble- it’s something that means the world when you are dealing with allergies.

Table booked for 7.30 we arrived early so were seated at our table and drinks order was taken. I asked for sauvignon and was recommended the New Zealand Sauvignon so ordered a glass- ordered 2 in total then realised how expensive the wine was (£12.50 a glass) felt a bit misled .. the manager came over and asked what the problem was, so I explained and he was rather condescending and suggested that I clearly didn’t realise the New Zealand Sauvignon was a superior wine. He offered to reduce the cost per glass to £8.50 which was the average price for wine. Then, a table that arrived way after us, were served their food before us … however, when our food eventually arrived - it was good, so no complaints there. Just a rather disappointing episode

It's great here. Staff are lovely. Restaurant is good. Don't like the takeaway fish and chips though. Other than that it's a really good pub.

We have visited twice in the past 2 mths its setting is just beautiful the pub is amazing and I can’t wait to return for one of their splendid Sundays roasts. The whole family enjoyed the visits.

Excellent 'local' - great food and beer, friendly and efficient staff, and you can watch the bowls on the Green outside if you wish, and time it right. Shaldon is a fine place for a stay, and this pub is a nice part of it.

Another really rustic, cozy, typically English pub. Very friendly staff and nice service. We went there several times because it was simply good there. Surprisingly good food. Top address in Shaldon👍

Had drink in pub,lovely interior, nice relaxed atmosphere. Also Had fish and chips to take away ,good quality and price would recommend.

Dreadful overpriced fish and chips. £18 for a little piece of fish wrapped in lots of batter and a few chips and peas

Another fabulous relaxing weekend staying at The London Inn. The room is really comfortable and lovely. Tim and his team are all friendly and welcoming. Food is very tasty and the menu choices are brilliant! Highly recommend a quiet night away at the seaside here!

Great local spot with lovely staff

We had a 90th birthday Sunday lunch for 13, the booking, service, food and atmosphere was perfect, so pleased that we chose there for our special day.

Nice pub, with an idyllic location that serves some really good beers. Would have stayed longer but was disappointed how a member of staff was spoken to by someone, and it was not by a customer.

Number one on trip advisor and recommended by our friends parents With good reason too - the food and service were both excellent. We had steak and monkfish. Cooked to perfection.

Great pub in Shaldon Great prices and the beer garden is excellent.

Lovely pub grub, with friendly service in a picturesque village. Visited the London Inn for lunch twice while spending a week in Devon. Service was very friendly and helpful on both occasions. Good range of drinks, including Shaldon gins and local ciders. We enjoyed the tapas. They are generous tapas portions and we particularly enjoyed the monkfish goujons, whitebait, crab croutons and sticky sausage bites. The crab sandwich and monkfish roll were delicious and substantial for the price.

The London inn, is a gem in Shaldon, Devon. The food is excellent and (fussy about food) I had the monkfish wrapped in ham (amazing) my husband had the Not a fish stew. Service, atmosphere and food very very good..

Lovely outside on the Court yard.. Food was good happy all round

Had the best Sunday Roast in a long long time. Look forward to coming here every time we’re down. Great pub, lovely staff, good beer. So good we’ve rebooked for Tuesday!

Great landlord nothing to much trouble

Great relaxing place to eat and drink. Very helpful and dog friendly. Lovely staff and landlord. We decided to have steaks with a peppercorn sauce and chunky chips, would highly recommend although did need to add a side of salad.

Walked in and booked a table in the afternoon for that evening. I can honestly say that I smelt the food at that point and thought this place is going to be good and I said so to my fiancée. I am not surprised to say that I was wrong with that assumption, as the food was some of the finest, me and my fiancée have had. I throughly recommend the Hake and Steak, the only change was I asked for a blue steak, rather than the medium rare and all I can say is WOW. My fiancée had the Lemon Basil Pasta and that was amazing too. I had the Creme Brulee for dessert and my fiancée had the Chef special blondie brown with salted caramel ice cream and again, it exceeded our expectations. The staff were wonderful, as my fiancée is pregnant, they opened the window to allow her to cool down and made us feel expectationally welcome, with the owner even coming out to tell us that our food was next. I would throughly recommend this pub and their food. Kudos to the chef/chefs and staff, it was wonderful.

Service was brilliant, dad said the crumble was spot on!

Great lunch, excellent value and very good service

I hadn't been before but it was a good experience. Beer was good then food was very nice and the staff were really helpful and polite. I'll be going again. More of a traditional type pub but good to see their so rare these days.

Been here a few times now and its always been a pleasant time good food good drink reasonable prices lively place,will always reccomend this place

Good landlord, welcoming staff, good food

Out of four meals one was ok. The ‘deconstructed’ lamb curry was odd in that the curry sauce was in a separate small dish, so the meat wasn’t really flavoured with the sauce and had an odd taste, and it was firstly sent back as it was barely warm. Another meal ordered was three tapas, two ok but the third was chicken Kiev and was like a huge scotch egg size. Inside was minced chicken and tarragon! Odd flavour for a basically garlic chicken dish. The vegetarian lemon pasta dish was ok but over priced. Pasta is not an expensive ingredient and there was little else in there. Parmesan was requested and a meagre amount was sent out in a little dish. Service was indifferent and had to chase for the bill. We were not asked if our meals were ok. Very poor and won’t return.

This is a superb pub with very professional staff and friendly also..food is fabulous..it's also in a superb position especially if you are outside in the sunshine..it over looks a green space and a local bowling green..if you are in the area of Shaldon.. it's a must!

Delicious food, friendly/nice staff..

Absolutely first rate Sunday lunch.

Lovely pub on the village green in Shaldon. Staff were incredibly friendly and had a great way with the customers. We didn't eat there but the menu looked fabulous. We had recommendations from the locals, but sadly not enough time to have dinner. We enjoyed local Devon cider and a packet of crisps! Not quite the same. The pub walls are lined with paintings for sale by local artists. We'll definitely be back for food next time we visit Shaldon.

Nice food but absolute robbery for £20, 3 potatoes, didn’t even fill me up

I and friends had a very good Sunday lunch there, would recommend it.

Fab place, food really good, service excellent, go see for yourself.

We had two nights at the London Inn, it's a lovely bedroom, everything you need even a mini fridge for milk the landlord gave us. The biscuits supplied so much better than most in accommodations. We ate there Friday night and I had chicken kiev wow that was excellent and my partner a steak he said cooked to perfection. Saturday night we tried the tapas that was tasty and choices were for most tastes. We enjoyed the atmosphere it was so friendly, we drank there the ale was excellent, as was the wine and prosecco. After check out which was 11am ideal on a Sunday, we went for a walk and came back and enjoyed a Sunday Roast , wow the batter pudding was so light and we rarely have them but was the best we have had and we eat out alot so compliments to the chef, and made our roast beef dinner. The staff were so friendly and polite a credit to a brilliant local business, the landlord ensured we had everything we needed, so nice it made our weekend, so thank you very much one and all.

Always a lovely place to while away the afternoon. Tim (?) the LL always manage a calming presence amidst general mayhem. Arrived for Sunday Lunch at peak time and no room at the Inn , as it were, but was not long before we were sat. Tapas of local crab on toast and white bait were commendable. Wine list had something for most, Muscadet “Lees “ aged and Chablis. Come hungry as the Sunday Beef Roast really piles them high. Will have to save room for dessert next time round. Ideal way of getting there is to walk as parking is a challenge in this quaint Devon estuary town. Given the dearth of quality wine bars in the Teign estuary, would love to see London Inn extending their wine range.

We come to the pub regularly as we live inTeignmouth. We have always enjoyed our visit and also bring friends when they visit. Unfortunately tonight we were a little disappointed I had the veggie burger that was luke warm in the middle and also the crumble was hot around the edges and cold in the middle, I tried to use the custard to heat it up but that was luke warm too. If we were staying in the pub longer I would have said something but we were going to a show and couldn’t be delayed

Had a lovely lunch here with friends having booked because of the offer of all main meals for £10 valid until 29th February. See attached. Upon paying we were asked by the landlord to pay full price, apparently because they had decided to withdraw the offer early. We will not be going back. Shame, because we really enjoyed the food.

I had the fish finger brioche bun light bite - delicious& more than enough for me!

A great pub tucked out of the way. Great customer service provided to customers with a learning disability. Friendly and welcoming. Great knot board!

Provided you can find somewhere to park, this pub restaurant is exactly my kind of place. Good food & beer, friendly polite staff, relaxing atmosphere.

Went with high hopes for a birthday meal. The staff were all friendly and helpful and the starters were good (lamb kofta and melted camembert) but the beef burger and the chicken burger weren't good at all. Both over cooked and dry. The bun not toasted and stale. The side of onion rings were very good and good value for money. The ladies toilets were awful. Smelly and unclean. Would I go again? Maybe for a drink, but wouldn't go for food.

Mediocre...barman was a bit rude....no please or thank you. Food was ok...

perfect midweek dinner at The London Shaldon. Warm welcome greeting from the bar, by Josh. food was really good. we both chose a burger with extra sides. would recommend booking a table as very popular.

Stopped in on the off chance of a spare table for 2 for food - there was .. just! The burger & chips we had tasted absolutely delicious, much better than it looked (could do with a little side salad to colour up the plate) - thoroughly enjoyed our unexpected stop. Nice local atmosphere and didn't feel like a tourist!

Always wonderful been visiting for years. Never disappoints.

I am an artist and had a busy morning painting just wanted to have a light lunch and a glass of something to cheer me up. Sat at the bar the staff were lovely the tapas delicious. I feel so much better thank you all at the London Inn x

We booked for 12.30 and asked if they wanted us to pre order, as we were a group of 10, but were told it wasn’t necessary. 2 of our party didn’t arrive till 12.40 but we immediately ordered at the bar. At this point I was told that they had another booking for the table for 2.30, but we were having tapas so it shouldn’t be a problem. However I was also told that there would be a delay with the food. The tapas was delicious! But when we were asked to leave the table we hadn’t had time to have desserts or finished our drinks. There wasn’t anywhere to go as it was busy so we sat outside in the drizzle to finish our drinks. Not a very pleasant end to a birthday meal that cost us about £300 with drinks. Please make sure that you state the 2 hour time limit before taking bookings, and make sure that the service is spot on to enable guests to eat comfortably within that time limit.

Really friendly helpful service. Eating out with food allergies can be very stressful but we had an amazing experience and really good food. The rum is also excellent. Thank you very much.

Incredible food and amazing value especially with the £10 offer for main courses in the week! Best mussels I've ever had and a very generous portion. Very friendly staff and a warm cozy atmosphere, can't wait to go back!

Entered to loud children running amuck..busy lunchtime on a Sunday!! Found empty table and told in no uncertain terms that it was reserved! No other tables available except perches at high tables...not possible to use with my mobility probs! My hubbie ascertained that the reservation was for 20 mins hence so took a seat and got us drinks from the bar! The noise from the children increased steadily, with them dashing in and out of the bar! The waitress gave us the evil eye ...I suppose cos we disobeyed her instructions not to use the reserved table!! We drank up and left....never to return!! Used to be a super little place...a victim of its own success I suppose!!

We stayed next door so thought we'd give it a go. Wow our Tapas was amazing. We were made to feel welcome. I would definitely come again next time we visit

Excellent value food with friendly service

The food was so beautiful, we came here two nights in a row! Shout out to Drew! You took good care of us and made our evening all the more memorable😄 Feedback- less fruit in the crumble!🤭

Great little hidden gem, friendly staff, lovely food and fab service.

Lovely meal with a group of friends, food was spot on, all came out at the same time and all plates cleared! The menu and portion sizes have changed a little but I think they’re doing really well at keeping things reasonably priced. Great service all round thanks!

A fabulous meal, I had the king prawn linguini with a delicious sauce. Husband had steak, cooked perfectly. Table of 6 and we all had great starters, main and puds. Attentive, even when very very busy, staff. Added surprise bonus was that all mains were £10 each, even the steak! A M -Th deal we didn't know before booking. Definitely booking again for husband's birthday in January. Thank you.

Great meal, with lovely staff and local atmosphere. Highly recommend

Visited twice over our weekend. Both times the staff were pleasant and friendly and the service was great. Had food one evening and it was very tasty and would recommend them. The service had improved significantly since our last visit and we would definitely visit again.

This is a lovely cosy pub and the fish chips was delicious couple of drinks on the 1st of December went down well. Also bought some little Christmas Cork characters that were cute. Lovely staff will return soon. 🌲😊😊

Went for tapas was really good and a very busy place

Fabulous roast beef Sunday lunch. Amazing food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere.

A group of 14 of us went to the London Shaldon last night to celebrate special birthdays. I would like to thank Tim and his team for a brilliant evening, food was delicious (not easy when serving so many at once from the menu) wine that goes without saying!! and all the staff did their utmost to make sure we had a lovely evening. Thank you Jan Spruce.

Ate there twice last week. Food very good. Excellent size portions. Will book next time we are back. Thank you

Fantastic food and service. Lovely atmosphere and we came away with bottles of their gin and apple moonshine too!

We have not been to London Inn since before pandemic and were delighted to see a varied menu online ( compared to the burger type offerings) . We had a fabulous evening nicely paced in the restaurant (rather than bar area) Forgot to take photos as so engrossed in company and food. The tapas starters of monkfish goujons and a hummus were both lovely. We will go back for a Tapas meal soon. Two of our party had the Steak Pie and were very pleased with that , lamb shank was delightful as was the chicken and chorizo dish. Desserts of probably the best Chocolate Brownie we have had and a well received Chocolate and Mint tart finished off great evening. Good value. Free parking 7 minute walk away off Shoreside as difficult to park near the London Inn but worth it!

We had some amazing food today (the mussels & scallops were 🔥) at the @shaldonlondon - Friendly & welcoming service and also such a gorgeous looking pub 🎉🙌🏻😎

Nowhere for drinkers to sit inside all tables had reserved signs on and the lady serving behind the bar was really not friendly kinda puts you off going back

After moving down to this area three years ago, It was the first time we decided to have lunch at the london inn. We were not disappointed. The staff were excellent. The food was lovely, So we will definitely return..

10 minutes from finishing probably the best rump steak I can remember eating, superb, medium rare, Chicago style, with a peppercorn sauce to complement it with peas and steak chips, unreal for the price, missus enjoyed her nut roast, said it needed a bit more colour, eg, mange tout and carrot maybe, again superb, gotta admit this place is good, seriously good, and we'll worth the money. There is a preference for cash here, uphold the cash, unlike a lot of places these days where it is card only. A beautiful pub, great staff and quite lovely food, more power to your elbows guy's, good job all round, my hat comes off properly to the chef, well done mate, brilliant...

Amazing service and food. My mum has food allergies and the chef came to speak to her directly and cooked her a meal to suit. The moules were some off the best I’ve eaten

The tapas were tasty & decent sized portions. My partner had hake tagliatelle which was most enjoyable. The fruit crumble was disappointing, it was just a light sprinkle of oats over stewed berries, no crunch or depth to the crumble. We enjoyed our evening, the pub always feels cosy & welcoming

A chance discovery; following a visit to Shaldon botanical gardens we wandered down to the shoreline looking for somewhere to lunch and came across this pub. Three different ales from three local breweries (well one based in Cornwall), all well kept, and a great menu. We had the most superb Tapas lunch! Will be looking for excuses to visit Shaldon more often 😁

Beautiful pub with great food, great drinks and amazing staff ,
