Service could have been better. I waited almost 10 minutes to order anything so i thought there was no table service. When I ordered food took a while to arrive but when it did it never came with culture. Knives and forks are helping when dinning out and a serviette. The bacon was not cooked that well and I had to keep getting up to get the attention of staff. I had to get up to ask for the bill. One server spoke endlessly to couple on another table who the server must have been familiar with and could be more aware of professional boundaries. I was never offered a dessert and had to go to the bar to pay the bill because the server or a server was still chatting at with guests on other table and as I walked up the server gave me a funny look!

No variety for someone who doesn’t eat meat at all. Burger had no flavour to it really and staff acted like things were an inconvenience. Stood there on their phones and just chatting to each other. Although food was quick it tasted like it had been there for a while. Shame because the drinks were really nice and the atmosphere of the restaurant was also nice. Just don’t think nearly £20 for a burger was a fair price.

Service very friendly and efficient, some dishes are good. I had a pan roasted lamb rump, unfortunately the lamb was neither pan roasted nor a rump cut, it was instead a watery flavourless cut like the piece you would get from slow cooking a lamb leg and cutting off the bottom part that has been in the juices (without the flavour). A shame as the place has good atmosphere, just felt a bit agitated at being given food that was not as described. Probably should have complained but I was out with a partner and did not want to ruin the evening. The chef knows what I mean! !

Lovely evening visits whilst visiting family. We were lucky to get a table last minute on a Saturday night. Expect a long wait on food though. The food was pleasant and very tasty but I was underwhelmed by the quantity of the potatoes and accompaniments that came with my meal for the price paid. It definitely wouldn't put me off visiting again.

Really disappointed. Went to dinner on Thursday (21/03) and Friday (22/03) both to have nice food and catch up with friends. Both times prebooked online days in advanve and both times had very similar experiences. I’ve been to lush before and had a lovely experiences however these times were incredibly disappointing! First night felt incredibly rushed, barely put my knife and fork down and they were already taking away my plate (no exaggeration) probably approached by staff every 5-10 minutes really got the vibe they wanted us to go- baring in mind this was a 5pm table (not anywhere near closing and a Thursday night not busy) and we ended up leaving at 6:30 even though we wanted to chat because we just felt they wanted us to go. Wrote this off as a one off because I’ve been to lush before and it was lovely went there. The next day, almost identical experience 5pm table just two of us having a catch-up except this time they told us at 6:40 our table was booked for 7 so we had to go. If hadn’t have been the day before I may have wrote this off too, but felt really awful having had booked this table in advance and having to leave a ‘catch up’ barley having any time to talk between being asked if we were done etc every 5 minutes, feeling rushed to eat and then eventually being told to leave under 2 hours. Would like to stress neither of these days was the restaurant really busy or were there no other tables available.

I have always loved Lush and have visited many times. I have never been disappointed until last night. We had a table booked for a 60th birthday, so a little bit special for 7.45 and was told at 9.30 it was last orders at the bar....9.30 really!!! Even though its advertised the restaurant is open till 11 o'clock the waitress said as it was quiet they were closing early. If we had known that we probably would of booked somewhere else. Also we felt a bit cheated when we ordered the sticky chilli chicken salad and it didn't arrive with fries anymore at the price of £17.50. Not a great experience I'm afraid. What has happened to the old Lush 😞

I'm by no means a local and this is a restaurant I had never heard of before, however the staff were extremely accomodating, kind and one in particular was quite a laugh. Very much made the experience much better. The food was brilliantly presented and the French fries were salted the way I like them, not too much and not too little. The burger itself was really nice, it had a nice charcoal taste to it with rich meat to boot, sadly though the bacon was a bit too crisp and is my only reason for bringing it down to a four star. Other than that, the main and dessert were very nice. The atmosphere was quite nice, the music was modern for quite a fancy establishment, however there were a lot of younger people there, I say this as though I am old but I'm still in my late 20s. Other than that, it has the right ambient lighting and was all right a nice place. The only other caviat is the price, however it is to be expected and honestly, it's worth it. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

We visited yesterday for a lunch with my partner and our dog. Absolutely beautiful place with the most friendly staff. I was a real nuisance after getting my burger with a bit of pink in the middle. It looked beautiful, but being pregnant I needed it to be well done (I shouldn't have assumed it would have been). Feeling awful I asked if it could be cooked slightly longer and they were so kind even though I was awful for not stating when ordering. The food was lovely!!!! Special mention to the toilets as they had dry shampoo, deodorants, wipes, hairspray and other things to keep you feeling fresh whilst visiting. These little things make such a difference. I would definitely recommend.

Usually come here when visiting for work and usually have no issues with the service or food, but this time the food seemed to have chillies all over it and something that wasn't meant to be spicy was, didn't take long to get the food either but getting the drinks took longer than it should, one of us asked for a water which was forgotten about until we had to ask again as the food was that spicy, then once we finished eating we were next to waitresses but none of them took out empty plates, the same for the table next to us as well as they said about it, they only took them when we asked them to and then took ages to get the bill so we had to ask again, then ended up with two bills. Great place usually.

Feeling hungry? Then you need to check out Lush restaurant! The food there is simply amazing, trust me. I recently had the katsu curry with halloumi and chicken, and it was so delicious. What's even better is that the staff eagerly accommodated my order request at no additional cost. My family also ordered various meals, and we were all delighted with what we got. The restaurant's ambiance is cozy, making it the perfect spot for a catch-up session with friends or an intimate date. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. And oh, they have a good selection of beer too! You'll need to book your table early though, as they're always packed. Don't worry about parking, Queen Street car park is just a few minutes away. You don't want to miss out on the Lush restaurant experience. Bon appétit!

My boyfriend and I had dinner here 08/04/23 whilst visiting Barnstaple for the weekend. The service was friendly and insanely quick for a busy Saturday night! We had starters, mains and a pudding and probably waited no longer than 15mins inbetween courses. The food was absolutely outstanding, im glad we don’t live closer because we’d probably eat here too often! My boyfriend had the katsu chicken curry for main and hasn’t stopped talking about it! I had the carbonara which was lovely and we shared the brownie for dessert which was incredible. Honestly rate the food here so much, when we return to Barnstaple we will eat here again without fail. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!

Went to the farm shop for the first time this year and purchased meat, cheese, bread etc for our self catering holiday in Woolacombe. Food was excellent and the staff, so friendly and helpful. It will be a first stop before getting to the apartment in Woolacombe in 2024. Cant recommend it enough.

I would highly recommend a stay in the Blue Ball Inn in Countisbury. We have just spent 4 days exploring the area around Linton and Lynmouth and stayed 2 nights here. It's an old coaching Inn, dating back to the late 18th century, with lots of character and style. After a rather uninspiring initial impression of the outside, you find a hidden gem inside. The new owner is gradually working his way through the hotel, refurbishing it and our room, with a lovely view over Exmoor, was spacious and spotlessly clean, with a comfortable (king size) bed, modernised bathroom, shower and bath. There were warming log fires in various areas downstairs. The staff were lovely and welcoming, friendly helpful and informative. We went as part of a Travel Zoo deal, which was superb value and we enjoyed a Devonshire cream tea on the first night and 2 course dinner on the second. The food was excellent , continental and cooked breakfasts with a wide variety of choice, dinner was beautifully cooked, my sea bass was the best I've had, black forest cheesecake delicious and all tastefully presented, Michelin star style . I thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would return at the drop of a hat.

I can honestly say this was one of the best meals we have had. The staff were so attentive and friendly. When we arrived they had even had a bowl of water ready for our pup, some treats on a dish and a blanket. So so thoughtful, they really went the extra mile! The cocktails were absolutely amazing, some of the best I’ve tasted for a long time. The food was excellent, full of flavour, nice and hot and you could just tell that the dishes were made with love. The atmosphere was lovely and the restaurant were beautifully decorated with a traditional Spanish feel. I would love to come back if I lived closer but was a great place to visit on our little trip. Couldn’t recommend enough, deffo one to visit if you’re in/around Ilfracombe! Thank you so much The Terrace Tapas xx

Whilst the food was enjoyable enough it tended to be a little on the expensive side.We chose the set menu at £31 each and it could have been better.A large amount of rice didn't camouflage the lack of the main ingredients. Staff pleasant
