Miss Fea's Cafe in North Devon

Fabulous food!!! And lovely service! Wonderful steak, great veggie options! The puddings were amazing! Dog friendly which always helps! Highly recommend!

Great experience all round. Rooms superb, atmosphere lovely, service impeccable ( eg rooms get cleaned and replenished every day), fine dining on the ground floor is a massive plus especially as it’s all hosted by the fab owner Will who is the font of knowledge about the local area. Can’t wait to visit The Smugglers Rest and Miss Fea’s Bistro again. Highly recommend.

Lovely birthday meal in Miss Fea’s Bistro last night. Nice choice of options, the food was presented lovely, friendly waitress and ideal for a special occasion meal.

Just had a lovely meal with a voucher I had for my 50th Birthday..

We have just had a lovely 2 night stay at The Smugglers Rest. This was our first and we will definitely be back for more. We had a friendly welcome from the owners, who called us on our arrival day to make sure they would be there when we arrived to check in. The room was beautiful - cosy, clean and high quality in every aspect, with lots of character. Breakfast was delicious and only made us want to come back when the in-house Bistro was open. Perfect location for accessing a stunning North Devon stretch of coastline as well as Woolacombe beach. Very cute village with two pubs. Thanks for a great couple of days.

We try and visit Miss Feas whenever we stay in the beautiful village of Mortehoe. Good food and good service from Will and his team.

First visit but definitely won't be the last. We walked from Woolacombe at wanted to try something different. The 3 courses were all delicious and presented extremely well. Couldn't fault the food at all. Friendly waiting staff too. Thanks for a very enjoyable evening and look forward to visiting again.

A wonderful place to stay. Delicious food, the comfiest room (every detail thoughtfully considered) and the loveliest setting - a pub and tea room a stones throw away and wonderful walks from the doorstep. Will and Stacey are brilliant hosts. We'll be back!

We had a fabulous meal at Miss Fea’s , the food was delicious and extremely well prepared and presented, couldn’t fault a thing. It’s a lovely setting with great service and excellent staff, very friendly and helpful.

The Smugglers Rest is our favourite place to stay in North Devon. The location is very convenient for Woolacoombe and the surrounding area, with access to village amenaties. The rooms are comfotable and beautifully decorated, and they serve an exellent breakfast in the morning. We have stayed here many times and will continue to do so.

I recently stayed at The Smugglers Rest, a beautifully run B&B with bistro in a small village location, perfect for exploring the North Devon coast. The customer service ethos runs through every detail from the welcome, to the decor, to the quality of the fresh cooked food and the helpfulness of the team. I would love to visit again.

Really tasty seasonal menu with plenty of choice! Our party tried the fillet steak, the sea bass and the pork belly. All delicious. Good and varied children's menu as well - all fresh and homemade! The puddings were excellent and unique. The Baileys burnt basque cheesecake was a winner all round! All dishes beautifully presented and the atmosphere was cosy and quaint.

We had a lovely meal here when visiting Mortehoe last week. A lovely atmosphere. Great service and the food was amazing - the best food we had all week in Woolacombe/Mortehoe. We will definitely be back if we are in the area again.

If I could have given this restaurant 3 1/2 stars, I would. However I have generously marked up. My husband and my son really enjoyed their food, however I was disappointed. My starter of gravadlax was lovely and fresh and I really enjoyed it. However my main, sea bass, (although in a beautiful sauce with lovely samphire,) was pinky brown and tough. I don’t know what was wrong with it, I have never had sea bass like that before. Maybe it had been frozen previously or wasn’t very fresh. They tried to cook it some more but it was still the same. To be fair I was not charged for this item, however I had no real main course to eat and was mostly sat watching my husband and son! My second mistake was to order the panna cotta for dessert. I’ve never had such a bland, watery panna cotta, with a weird texture. Taking pity on me, my husband swapped and gave me his dessert. I can’t remember the name of what it was but it was maybe a lemon curd tart with some kind of dark fruit? Anyway, it was absolutely delicious. Tangy scrumptious filling and lovely pastry. So at least I got to eat something nice! The proprietor and staff were lovely to us and our dog. I’m afraid I wouldn’t go back though.

What can I say, excellent food, service and drinks. If your in the area it’s a must !!! Our waitress’s knowledge of the wine and food was excellent. Great value for money, lovely surroundings and they even take well behaved dogs !! Keep it going !!!

Lovely friendly restaurant. Food delicious. Definitely worth booking in if you are in Morthoe.

Lovely food, atmosphere and service. We returned 2 years later and the place is still well run, clean and the food delicious.

Great meal, friendly and efficient service and real attention to detail. We were so glad to be able to get a table at short notice. The food was top notch. Perfectly cooked sea bass with delicious sauce and the 'smores' dessert was excellent too. If you want top quality food at a reasonable price then highly recommend Miss Fea's!

Such a beautiful small restaurant in mortehoe, doesn’t feel full of tourists like most of the restaurants in Woolacombe do…! The food quality is exquisite, and although slightly on the pricy side, it is definitely worth it. The restaurant owners are very nice and always make you feel welcome when you return ☺️

We were made very welcome and loved the place and staff, but sadly were a bit disappointed by our dinners. My partner had the tagliatelle which was swimming in oil and my duck was a small leg, rather dry with no sauce and lots of boring lentils. Potatoes were an extra. £70 for just two mains and a modest bottle of wine seemed a bit steep. So a tad disappointing, especially as it’s local to us and we had high hopes after a friend’s recommendation. By the way, it’s now called “Smugglers’ Rest”. We’ll give it another try in a while in the hopes that the food will be a bit tastier.

We tried booking online but there was no availability so decided to pop our head in on the way past to see if we could be squeezed in. How lucky were we that they had some availability! Food was outstanding. The best meal we have had in years. Service was great. Highly recommend. Amazing to find such a fantastic place in a small village.

Exceptional Food. Seasonal and well sourced. Brilliant service. Great ambiance. Booked again for next week.

An absolute gem! We stayed in Woolacombe for our honeymoon and so glad we came to Miss Fea’s. We walked up from Woolacombe and it wasn’t far at all. The meal itself was sensational - local lobster cooked beautifully, and delicious starters and puddings as well. Service was excellent and everyone was so friendly. Will 100% come back if we’re ever in the area again!

Superb evening again at Miss Feas, the welcome was warm, staff attentive and knowledgeable, seasonal, small but well executed menu with something to please everyone. Wine list is comprehensive and not ridiculously priced.

A wonderful evening meal beautifully cooked and presented which was delicious and service was attentive and friendly

We visited on Friday with my parents and two children. We had the early sitting with the children. The atmosphere was lovely and quirky, service and food spot on! Gem of a find in a sleepy Mortehoe. We'll be back next year!

We went here for my birthday treat while staying at the Damage Barton campsite about 0.9 miles away. The choice on the menu was great (we're vegetarian+fish and there was as much choice for us as for meat eaters), there were a lot of interesting wines on the wine menu, and the staff were really great. The food was marvellous and we'd whole-heartedly recommend it.

Miss feas is a lovely warm bistro in Mortoe near Woolacombe with great attention to detail, a small but complete menu and great wines these people enjoy providing the best experience possible and it was dog friendly to boot. I have given 5 out of 5 which I rarely do but that reflects the passion that accompanies the product.

What a little gem. It was a few years ago that we luckily got the chance to eat there, fully booked for 2 weeks, but we cheekily got in after a friendly conversation with the waitress. The food was sensational, with some good wine to compliment it also. We managed to have a quick conversation with 'Miss Fea' and her husband, lovely people and what a chef she is! If you planning a trip to Ilfracombe, make sure you book a night in this little gem, small, but absolutely top notch.

From walking in we had a warm welcome staff so friendly the food was absolutely amazing would recommend anyone in Mortehoe should visit. We went twice and not disappointed both times highly recommend

Superb. Such a joy to come back to Miss Fea’s bistro after its 2023 reopening taking the whole family this time for an Easter celebration. Delicious food, attentive, warm-hearted service and we had a ball. And then there was the sunset .. Many thanks! ❤️

Our first time at Miss Fea's this year, and the food and service was excellent. A relaxed atmosphere to kick back in and have a good time with friends. Steak was exceptional. Will, Stacey Sam and Kirsty are doing a great job.

Wonderful food. Excellent, friendly service. Would definitely go again. Ate at Miss Fea’s for a birthday treat with a family group (14-70 something). Everyone loved the food and thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Would highly recommend.

We researched places to eat in the area and the reviews of Miss Fea's hinted that it would be worth a visit. My chef partner is always fairly particular where he eats but this place was lovely. The owners care about what they are serving and the suppliers are local. Cannot recommend enough.

Will, the owner, gave us a most entertaining welcome, warm and enthusiastic. Food was excellent throughout and very well presented. Wine list very good and sensible prices. We have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant. Bon appetite.

Visited Miss Feas recently. An amazing meal, food freshly cooked & all dietary requirements catered for. Good selection of wines. Atmosphere not to formal not to casual just relaxed & friendly. Owner & staff very knowledgeable & friendly nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back again.

If you can, please visit this restaurant. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The food is excellent. We had the best Sunday lunch we have ever had here.

Miss Fea's Bistro is fantastic. We were there for the final weekend of the season. The food was fabulous and of MasterChef quality. The staff were chatty and friendly. Would highly recommend this hidden gem

Fantastic service and mouth-wateringly delicious food, this is our very favourite place to dine in the beautiful village of Mortehoe.

One if the best Sunday lunches we've had, attentive staff lovely atmosphere. We'll worth a visit.

The most bizarre welcome ever. I asked for a table for 3. The chap said that he may have seats and asked me twice if I looked at the menu already... Hm.. That lit a red light in my head. Then he took us to the table and the funniest thing came out "well look at the menu first and we'll take it from there" 😁 was it my accent? Was it my hair? I'll never find out as not planning to go back. 2 stars for a really nice food. At least mine was nice, as the grilled cauliflower steak was literally a slice of cauliflower 😁

What a joy to go out for a meal and be able to enjoy amazing food and wine, with exceptional service and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. Thankyou.

Really lovely, a must. Exquisite local food very well preserved, served by friendly, helpful staff. Brilliant.

Visited this week and I have to say the food and staff were amazing, I have a lot of food allergies this was not a problem for the amazing staff they had in depth knowledge of every item on the menu and were able to...

Really good food and wine. Great friendly service. I highly recommend eating here.

Superb food, fine dining standard. Small menu, but everything is fresh and delicious. We had a seafood linguini, fillet steaks and a Irish lamb stew, all excellent. Food ranges from £18-£30- some portions are on the small side and require sides. Attentive service, kept checking...

Wow, what a gem! We’ve eaten at Miss Fea’s Cafe three times now - once in the Summer for my special birthday with my family, and twice this week when we spent another long weekend in Mortehoe. This must be the find of the century! Will and Stacey have a first class restaurant with delicious food beautifully presented with the help of their welcoming front of house staff, Kirsty and James, and of course their chef, Sam. The ambiance and decor is gorgeous. And, they allow dogs, which is a bonus for us with our German Shepherd. Well done to all of you. We wish we lived closer, but, till next time…… Thank you for three great evenings. Sue and Robin x

Delicious meal with excellent service. Very friendly welcome and super nice food. Would thoroughly recommend and will visit again when we are next down this way..

Great food and good service. Surprisingly not a Michelin star for the food. I had a superb pan fried bass which was really nicely cooked.

Visiting from Australia we travelled to North Devon to stay with friends who live in Woolacombe and we went to dinner together at Ms Fea's Bistro at the Smuggler's Rest in Morthoe. The whole experience was excellent. The atmosphere of the restaurant was excellent with...

Fresh, delicious, sensational flavours in a friendly yet intimate restaurant. We will definitely be back. Fantastic evening thank you!

Well thought out menu with good choice for veggies, food is very tasty, great atmosphere, friendly service highly recommended.

An incredible meal for 2 enjoyed at the weekend! Really interesting and small menu, so you know all the food is fresh. Was tough to choose as all options sounded amazing! For fine dining, the portions are very generous. Such a nice atmosphere in a...

Miss Fea’s gets *everything* right: a beautiful, welcoming space; great staff; a menu which is tempting from top to bottom; outstanding food and a lovely wine list.

We booked late but the hostess did her absolute best to squeeze us in for evening dinner. Service was sooo good and food delightful. Will definitely be back. Steve and Alison

The food was first class, fresh, beautifully cooked and well presented. We both had the fish of the day as mains, sea bass for me and cod for my husband, both were delicious, as were the starters and puddings. This restaurant deserves to be fully...

Visited Miss Fea’s for the first time. Wish we had discovered it earlier. It has a lovely atmosphere. Friendly, helpful staff and wonderful food. Interesting menu, beautifully prepared and presented. Highly recommended. Will make sure we visit again the next time we are in Morthoe.

Excellent food - cooked fresh so you have to wait. Approx £40 a head for meal and drinks.Staff are very friendly.

The veg are to die for and the fish and meat aren't far behind. Friendly welcome and service. Recommended highly.

The starters were great. Main was overcooked, basic pasta which we could have cooked at home. All of us had it. Staff also hit and miss, some great, others couldn’t get the basics (like bringing cutlery) right. Pity as we had gone off the good...

Whilst the service and starters were good, the main courses of Hake and Lamb were extremely poor. In fact, this was probably the worst dish of lamb I have ever been served. It was dry and cold and sitting on a bed of feta cheese...

Imaginative menu, the dishes perfectly executed, and faultless service. We booked the day before, and it was full on the night, unsurprisingly.

Had a lovely meal on our holiday last week had a table of 6 adults and a separate table of 4 older teenagers. We all enjoyed our meal the atmosphere was lovely and the staff were really nice, those of us that had lobster enjoyed it and the pudding were amazing.

A wonderfully relaxed atmosphere with great service. The food is sourced locally from sea and land. There is always a locally caught fish of the day which is beautifully prepared. The dishes are thoughtfully made and always a delight. The best Ravioli and the best...

Amazing fresh food and friendly atmosphere. Great service and ambience. Definitely worth booking in advance, it was busy throughout the evening. Fresh seafood and fish on the specials menu. A great selection of drinks.

Lovely food and wine in a very pleasant atmosphere. Will and his staff were very attentive without being imposing. Always a good sign when the steak doesn't need a steak knife to cut it.

On a visit to Mortehoe in North Devon and on the off chance booked a table at Miss Feas Bistro in Mortehoe. Well what an absolute pleasant surprise, a high quality fantastic meal, as good as anything we can remember ( and we have ate...

A well run, pleasant little bistro which is a gem of a find if visiting Woolacombe or mortehoe. Only open in the evenings and quite small, it makes sense to book as it is very popular. The welcome is friendly, drinks and wine menu is...

We had a fantastic meal at Miss Feas last night. Staff were friendly and attentive, food was delicious, and they were very accommodating for our one year old (with one of the best kids menus we’ve seen!). Definitely one to try! Thanks

Super nice little bistro, awesome grub, nice beer, knowledgable staff and very friendly :) Highly recommended!

First class reception, beautiful food. Presentation of food excellent, and highly recommend. This is a must to visit when in the area.

We booked this restaurant after looking for places to eat around Woolacombe and went off the reviews on trip advisor and it was amazing, the staff were friendly and although it was very busy we felt very well looked after.As for the meal, it was...

The quality of the food is exceptional. The ambience fabulous, the proprietor and servers all very professional and helpful - we stayed at the establishment (The Smugglers Rest) and all food, breakfast and dinner was excellent. Cant wait to visit again next year, keep up...

Excellent food and service. I would recommend you try it!

I can unreservedly recommend Miss Fea’s. The restaurant is light and airy and has a real buzz. The menu is imaginative and what might be expected at a much more ‘up market’ restaurant. Our meal was really well presented and the staff were engaging and...

We visited the bistro on Sunday evening we had a fantastic meal , the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu , would recommend will definitely be returning .

We had a lovely meal this evening. Staff were attentive, friendly and welcoming. This is a regular favourite for us

This came recommended and it didn’t disappoint. A lovely welcome and delicious food. We were a party of five and all had seafood. The fish was perfectly cooked.

We chose this restaurant based on its rave reviews on TripAdvisor. We had a nice welcome, surroundings are typical bistro but very tastefully done. We both ordered a hake dish with clams: it arrived incredibly quickly but was clearly a totally unfinished dish - think...

What a fab evening we have had! Lovely staff, lovely food. Definitely another to add to the list of must visit restauants when visiting woolacombe and Mortehoe

We recently stayed at Smugglers for the weekend, so booked in at Miss Fea’s for dinner- it was amazing!! So much so that we returned for our wedding anniversary meal a few days later when we were staying in nearby Woolacombe. We were saved the...

It’s been a long (almost 2 years) since we’ve been able to dine here due to the C word, building work and complicated diaries but so glad we were able to come back tonight. Lovely atmosphere, fantastic service and not enough superlatives to use about...

It’s been a long (almost 2 years) since we’ve been able to dine here due to the C word, building work and complicated diaries but so glad we were able to come back tonight. Lovely atmosphere, fantastic service and not enough superlatives to use about the food and drink. It’s difficult to emphasise how relaxed, comfortable and made to feel at home they make you. There can’t be many places that combine exquisite food with such great service. I’ve likened it before to going to a friends house for dinner but the friend is the most amazing chef. Everything made from scratch with love and expertise. If you can get a booking go there. It really is THAT good. Cheers to the team from Rich Mack, JR and our team.

If you want really good food prepared fresh with local ingredients then this is the place Every dish is excellently prepared and sourced There is no other restaurant for competition locally We always come here when we are in Mortehoe The food is better than...

Fantastic dinner at Miss Fea’s Bistro in incredible Mortehoe. Great atmosphere - relaxed with attentive, friendly staff, and a lovely owner! Delicious menu with plenty for us pescatarians. Food is fresh, locally sourced, gorgeous. We’ll be back!

We’ve eaten here several times and always enjoyed it, but this season Will and Stacey have really excelled and turned it from a lovely eating experience to somewhere very special to eat. Our meal this week was perfection and the newly decorated bistro is gorgeous. Top marks all round and well done everyone x

Extensive Dinner menu. I chose Linguini with prawns, cockles and cuttlefish..One of the best pasta seafood meals I have ever had. My wife chose Risotto with seafood..She was equally impressed. The cheesecake dessert was very tasty and smooth. Looking forward to going back to this...

Superb service ...wonderful food....Great atmosphere. We have had a lovely evening and can highly recommend paying Miss Fea's a visit. We will be returning soon!

First visit and not the last, we're back again next month. Excellent service, menu choice and ambience. Love this restaurant, can't wait to go back and try another tempting dish, would highly recommend.

We’ve just had the most wonderful evening at Miss Fea’s….all of the staff were friendly, fun and accommodating, wonderful service, great ambiance and the food was faultless. Would highly recommend to anyone and we will certainly be back..thank you

Three couples staying in the area, we booked Miss Fea’s Cafe initially as it was the only place in Mortehoe serving food on a Tuesday evening. The food, service and welcome we received from Will and his team were so good that we immediately booked...

A little surprised by all the five star reviews. We were sadly a little underwhelmed by our visit. When we arrived (albeit early at 6pm on a Monday night) the place was empty. But when we responded that we hadn’t booked there seemed to be...

Found this fabulous restaurant through a TripAdvisor review. The comments were great and we were not disappointed. Right from our friendly welcome to the moment we left, we felt completely at home. The decor is quirky and stylish, the menu eclectic and the ambience warm...

Lovely staff, very attentive, nothing too much trouble. The owner is very personable & great front of house..menu with all local produce - great wines and cocktails!

Friendly staff and newly decorated - looking very smart! We had a Sunday Roast, good portion size, lovely veg and a gluten free option. Desserts were fantastic too!

Had a fantastic meal with great service. Food was all beautifully present and tasted great. We were staying at Damage Barton campsite so only a short distance away. Dogs welcome. A lovely evening - would definitely visit again

Arrived, staff seemed dismissive, seemingly unsure of our booking and unwelcoming. Directed us to an filthy table covered in stains, food and with no menus or cutlery. Table wiped down so it was soaked, so napkins become saturated.menu doesn't seem intuitively laid out Nobody came to ask us if we wanted drinks (it wasn't busy) Food menu is light on anything that isn't sea food or a £30 steak We got up to leave and only then did someone come over but not to repair relations but rather a blunt "why are you leaving" Advise: 1. With the prices.. make people feel welcomed at least. 2. If you know a booking is coming in spend 3 minutes making sure it's cleaned and set. 3. Maybe consider diversifying the menu a bit more and simplifying the wording. 4. From window seat maybe try tidings those outside dumpsters, it's all you can see. Appearance is modern in there you clearly want to market yourself as a premium venue but fancy lightbulbs and fresh paint is not why I'm out for dinner.

We are staying at the Damage Barton Campsite and found this restaurant on our walk into the village. What a find!! We ate here two nights running and both visits were excellent. Friendly staff, lovely decor and outstanding food. We tried the mussels, bruschetta and...

Because I'm solo my partner passed away sadly last year.They gave me a table at the window with a view. That was so thoughtful. It made me feel very relaxed and comfortable because its not easy to be at a restaurant on your own. The...
