Passage House Inn in Teignbridge - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Went for dinner,greeted very warmly,shown to table. Drinks order taken, menus given,all with a smile and chat. Food ordered,1 x Farmer platter,1x Butter chicken curry.Bothdishes very good with quality and quantity. All 3 waitresses very good and bubbly personality.

Looked at the menu on line and because I have a gluten intolerance I decided I was going to have the ham, egg and chips. However, when I was handed the menu when we got there that option was not on the Sunday menu! Needless to say I was disappointed and had to go for a gluten free carvery as no other options apart from pizza which I did not really want for a Sunday lunch. We also noticed that regulars appeared to receive more attention, we were not even asked if the food was ok as the staff seemed more interested in their regulars! Might not be back for a while. My dad asked for the small scampi charged at £8.50 on the menu but not until we got home we realised he had been charged for a large scampi.

We have had lunch here in the past and it has been excellent. Not so today- the mussels were small and gritty. My husband’s liver and bacon was poor - tiny amount of liver, 1 slice of fatty bacon, perched on a small pile of what called itself bubble and squeak (orange colour, was it swede?) Not sure what the 2 battered onion rings on top were about. They would do well to spend less on decorating everything with pea shoots and more on basic ingredients.

Nice pub with good food and I have visited quite often (there's not too much competition in the area). The food is always good and staff are friendly but for some reason I can't fathom, the bar is almost always deserted. If you go to the bar to get drinks you will be waiting for some time. It's as if the staff never think to check who might be waiting occasionally. I can only presume that they focus so much on food that they don't care about the drink. That's fine if there's service at the tables, but there isn't. If you eat there (in that bar, it's fine in the restaurant area) and like a drink with your meal then you have to buy two before your meal arrives or the meal will go cold whilst you wait. Otherwise the place is great.

Absolute rubbish, the organisation of patrons was out of control. We were told there was a 1 1/2 hours wait for our table, when we got seated, and main course which mostly stayed on the plates was over we were told we would have to hurry up as another group was booked for our table. This is not acceptable everyone is as important as the next. I’ve fed leaner meat to my dogs, the PHI has long been a popular venue for us. I can categorically state that this is the last time we ever visit £170 waisted.

Lovely meal, however very rushed, closed at 10 and we were reminded on several occasions that they closed at 10 which meant be out of the pub at 10 on a friday night. despite spending over £200 as a group on food and drink. We paid by 9.30 but not allowed to stay to finish by staff who had their coats on ready to go. I understand that you need to have a finishing time but to made to feel rushed certainly put a dampner on the evening.would consider other venues when looking to book a similar evening again!

Very quite for a Saturday evening and having tasted the food I can understand why. Very poor service overall the food came before the cutlery which was just dumped on the table. Two of the meals were very poor a wedge of Pie which was dry and tasteless and a piece of fish which was very watery. We usually have deserts but decided against it.

We had a Sunday Roast and it was absolutely delicious. Plenty of food and a proper meat gravy. The chef was very very friendly along with all the members of staff. Another bonus was there was an option of a small roast at £10.95, the normal roast was £14.95. We would definitely return for another roast in the future. It was very busy which indicated how popular it was. I would recommend.

First visit. We will be back. I had the liver and bacon. Far too much for me! Service was good. Well looked after. Plenty of choice for a gluten free diet - going to try a pizza next time.

Went to Passage House Hotel 4 weeks before booking for Christmas Dinner, l said to my partner this Sunday lunch is fabulous, so we booked for Christmas Dinner, the starter was so good, we loved it, however, the Christmas Dinner had no taste at all, stuffing balls were hard, you could taste the spouts and parsnips ( which were huge), everything else was tasteless, gravy also had no taste, after paying £168.00, we will never go here again, what a disappointment from the Sunday lunch we had 4 weeks earlier .

We went for the Sunday carvery. The “small” carvery was for 2 slices of meat - I got 2 very thin slices which were not even full slices off the roast. Taste-wise, it was ok only with the vegetables filling up the plate. 1 pint of soft drink was £4.40 which was pricey. Overall nothing great.

Had a fantastic Xmas lunch on Xmas day at the Passage House. Lovely food good service and lovely atmosphere. Well done

Very tasty carvery at very reasonable price. I had a small carvery with a slice of beef and a slice of pork for GBP 10.95 with a large Yorkshire pudding, stuffing, crackling, and a wide selection of vegetables and lots of gravy.. The carvery is available on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday for lunch and Thursday lunch and dinner. The beef and pork were both tasty, easy to cut and succulent. A large carvery for GBP 14.95 has a choice of three slices of meat (beef, turkey and pork) and a larger sized plate which can fit more vegetables and roast potatoes. The Diet Coke and coke cost GBP 4.40 per pint which is more expensive than any of the other pubs we have visited in Devon. The waiters and waitresses were polite and helpful. The inn had a very cosy interior.

Five weeks ago I Booked a lunch for 5th November for a special birthday treat. Dined at the Passage House Inn twice since and checked my 5th November booking each time, all booked great! Turned up in the 5th and was told I hadn’t booked. I was so embarrassed as I was being called a liar and I knew I was right. They did find us a table but it spoilt the celebration. I paid the bill with a lady with a foreign accent, never seen her before, must be new. She was so rude and definitely needs customer care and people skills training. I actually looked in the booking diary on the desk and what do I see? My booking which had been crossed out and different name put next to it. When I challenged it with the manager (I think) he just said sorry about that but mistakes happen. Definitely a place I will not be back to.

I could not believe the price of their drinks. A pint of pepsi from the pump and a child's squash £5.60!! We didn't stay for a second and won't be returning at those prices.

Absolutely disgusting..the chef at the carvery was very rude and bad mannered meat was dry and tasteless the veg weren't too bad but the potatoes were rock solid and the gravy was disgusting it ruined our night ..I had been told not to go there .... the waitresses were too pushy and false .the chef or cook should be sacked ...a badly ruined Eve again...

Booked a table for 5 and a baby for 1700 today 10/9/23 A queue of 8 before me at the bar on entering at around 1600 similar to a previous reviewers comments The drinks were VERY EXPENSIVE ! Outside seating area very good by the river Inside the conservatory area our table was absolutely filthy Our 36 year old son scraped a thick layer of grime from his place at the table with his red carvery card !The tables were sticky but had been wiped ! The carvery was tasty but the small dish of roast potatoes had clearly been kept warm from lunchtime and would have made a good base for a dry stone wall ! The place was swarming with youngsters employed as staff and the only grown ups were 1 behind the bar and the chap serving the meat although he didn’t deserve a pat on the back for portion size at nearly £15 a plateful ! The toilet cleanliness was disgraceful warranting my comment to the other adult serving behind the bar ! Used to go there years ago but no never again

Excellent spot for a meal by the river. Cater for GF (coeliac) diet. Roast dinner & starter of Mushrooms in sauce on toasted chiabata were excellent. Staff friendly & helpfully.

Are many positives about the passage house, namely its location and views and the serving staff are pleasant and helpful. The aromatic burger with the sweet potato fries was absolutely excellent in its taste and quantity. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. however, this...

14.10 hrs asked what time last orders were for lunch. Told by a waitress it was 14.30, which is what I expected. Asked for a menu and again confirmed by bar staff to order asap which we did at 14.25 hrs. Just two simple sandwiches,...

Lovely food and service but terrible service at the bar.We were staying for 2 nights at the Passage House Hotel so on both evenings we wandered down to the Inn for a drink and something to eat.We have done this before and this weekends experience...

Popped in for a quick cuppa and maybe a piece of cake at 3 on a Saturday afternoon. Girls behind the counter said they don't do cake, but I could have a desert, I asked for crumble and the girl asked another if she could...

Great location for a pub with amazing views over the Estuary from both the beer garden and inside the pub. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was good.

Having grown up close by have an affinity for the Passage House and have been going for 50+ years from a very young age. However, please sort your bar out! In the last 2 years I have visited 4 or 5 times as I now...

Lovely place to go for food all the staff were so welcoming and polite. The food (cooked to order) was delicious and portion sizes are more than adequate. Definitely have no complaints . Recommending to friends and are most definitely returning . Thanks you all...

Set in a beautiful spot alongside the river Teign the Passage House Inn is a must for Sunday carvery. The beef was delicious as were all the veg on offer served by very attentive staff. Will definitely be returning.

4 of us came in Sunday lunch it was not the best. The area around the passage house is amazing perfect to sit and have a drink. Not a warm welcome on arrival maybe the staff were stressed but nobody was smiling. We were then...

Amazing spot by the river when the tide is in, food great, staff nice, but I'm sorry to say the prices of drinks is a joke, I live 2 mins away, but go there on pay day! Myself and friends are in the trade and...

Lovely place, right on the Hackney River. Nice food and not rushed. Friendly staff. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Had booked a table but the staff downstairs knew nothing about it. Drinks were disappointing as elderflower presse, pino grigio. ginger beer and sauvignon blanc all unavailable. We gave our order and then some time later were told that the beef sandwich was not available...

Very very disappointing. Took my semi disabled dad out to lunch for a treat, thought we would choose the Passage House with it's beautiful setting. My mum tried to order pinot Grigio, out of stock, Sovignon blanc, out of stock, elderflower, out of stock, ginger...

Had a mussels linguine with cream, and fishcakes, and both were excellent, coudnt have been better. Staff were professional, friendly, and prompt. The view stunning, and all in all a perfect dinner. Well done Passage House Inn!

Overpriced poor quality menu, no vegan dishes obvious to me, poor vegetarian choices. Chose a jacket potato which was dark in colour so must have been old. Poor service at the bar

As always very good food and excellent service . It was nice seeing the two girls again that looked after us on our wedding anniversary Kerry and Katie . hope I have there names right but they no who I am talking about. The two...

Stopped off for a drink before Newton abbot races . Had a tonic water and a pint of water and blackcurrant, charged £7.80 !! . Even got the friendly barstaff to check . Think I'll give it a miss next time.

I had one drink ,a bottle of zero alcohol beer at £4.00 per bottle ( less than half a pint ) I would have stayed longer but not at that price ! Not helpful to someone like me that won’t drink and drive .A full...

Dogs everywhere. Blocking the aisles, jumping up on the bar and making noise. Unhygienic but good if u love dogs. I had the carvery with nut roast. Veg was tasteless and dry. Felt bloated and bit sick for hours afterwards. The old wooden chair I...

Great views across the Teignmouth Estuary - you can watch the tide and the wildlife! Started with a pint of Otter Ale which was absolutely perfect! Wide choice on the menu, we opted for the Fish and Chips and could see that our meals were...

Wonderful food, reasonable pricing and a lovely setting. Had a ploughman’s by the river and it was delicious, could have done with more bread however. Worth a visit for sure with friendly staff!

We visited for a carvery to spend time with family for mothers day. We had left it late booking and there weren't many options left for 10 guests so we luckily found the Passage house. The place itself is in an absolute perfect location and...

The Passage House Inn is in a prime location overlooking the estuary of the River Teign with views all the way down to Teignmouth. My wife and I and 2 friend visited to celebrate our Anniversary. The food was exceptional, beautifully cooked and with generous...

My husband and I stayed at the passage house hotel for our 49th wedding anniversary and the staff were all great and very helpful with my husband who is not well And we went for a meal over the other part of the hotel where...

We frequently enjoy the carvery served on a Thursday at lunchtime. The food is very good, the staff friendly and welcoming. Would certainly recommend it.

We have been frequenting this pub for over 40 years, but not eaten here for a while. We ordered two small nut roasts with the carvery. The selection of vegetables was excellent but I'm afraid the "nut roast" was very disappointing. It wasn't a proper...

We enjoy coming here for drinks, but rarely eat as food is hit and miss, especially the carvery. Some staff, especially a girl called Kelly is fantastic. Nothing too much trouble and always accommodating. She always makes sure our dogs are comfortable too. In fairness...

Arrived at 1420pm with a friend for a drink. Before I even ordered anything I was confronted by a woman, no idea if owner or not, who quite rudely stated that they were closing in 40 minutes time and did I actually want anything. I...

Met up with my family for a long overdue meal together, six of us. My daughter had the calamari starter, obviously a frozen product, presented in breaded clumps, she couldn’t eat it, she said the texture was all wrong Another daughter had the mushrooms in...

We ate there 4 times in 7 nights, on each occasion the food was good to excellent and the portions large enough. On each occasion we ordered either a bottle of wine or prosecco (for a celebration) and on each occasion it was placed on...

Last place to eat on our pooch walking break along the south coast. It was a 15-20 minute from our glamping site just outside of Kingsteignton across a public footpath. The pub is right on the river Teign and has a lot of inside and...

My boyfriend and I came here for a date night. The food was really lovely. The staff are always really friendly and kind here. We have been here a handful of times now and will be returning. This place is deffinately a reccomendation.

Came here with my family. Lovely food and a good atmosphere. Kelly (Our waitress) was friendly, efficient, patient and good humoured. Thank you

Lovely setting with views across the river Teign, but be prepared to be ripped off. A standard black coffee is £2.90, but if you ask for a double shot they add an incredible £2!! £2 for an extra shot of coffee costing them around 5...

Beautiful location, so peaceful with lovely wildlife. Carvery was top class and service from our server Kelly was excellent. So friendly, kind and accommodating. Definitely coming back!

Lovely sunny day and so I decided the children and I have some lunch out. I’ve never eaten at the Passage House Inn before, but I have had a drink there whilst out on my bike. A cycle route from Newton Abbot to Kingsteignton runs...

Went to the passage house last year and it was slightly grim but as just coming out of lockdown thought this year we would give them another go should have improved. How wrong can you be out of 5 meals 3 we’re just ok 2...

Surprised my partner with a visit, she loved the food and drinks, amazing service. We was looked after by Laura Hale, she was polite, checked on us, we will be visiting again soon!!!

We visited last weekend for a meal and drinks and it was lovely, the location is perfect and the service was amazing - we was served by Kate and nothing was any trouble. The food was reasonable and to a good standard, definitely recommend.

We had a lovely 3 course lunch to celebrate our anniversary. Sat outside enjoying the fabulous view. Such a great setting with friendly efficient service, especially from Mel. So lucky to have the PH on our doorstep.

10 of us went to The Passage house Inn to do some sketching. We took our own seats and went on the grass next to the estuary and we decided we would have coffee when they opened. The first person was greeted with are you...

Great service from the front of house staff. They where all attentive and friendly. I had a table for one and the service was efficient while the food was excellent. Too many people are always to keen to criticise and I had no complaints at...

Passage House Inn hosted my parents 60th wedding anniversary meal for 14 people today. The food was delicious, the service and staff were fabulous. Thank you so much for making this special event so memorable.

Carvery looked awful so we changed our meal choices Fish pie was dry Brownie was dry Chocolate truffle didn’t taste of anything, not a hint of chocolate at all Honeycomb ice cream did not taste like honeycomb Turkey korma was watery Naan bread was solid...

Staff were very friendly but food was disappointing and not even up to the standard of average home cooking . I could have cooked better myself. We ordered Turkey and Thyme Pie, veg and new potatoes. The pie had obviously been reheated in the microwave...

Visited to eat for the first time in years after avoiding with the exception of an outside drink. Pleasant to have a nice welcome with a friendly helpful female staff member. Most of the food order was fine but the Veg Chilli dish was so...

I know it hasnt got a reputation for food, but the fish pie I had was very good, loaded with fish, clearly home made, and the Bream with Mediterranean vegetables was reported to be very good. I also had a very good coffee liquors and...

My daughter and I had a ploughman’s platter which as advertised we shared. We were very disappointed, there was one slice of very fatty ham and everything else felt like it was being limited which considering it was fairly expensive we expected better. So we...

love the cheesy chips and sides- sat outside and snacked on them with some mates. staff were lovely and the scenery was pretty

Staff were very helpful and polite, the food arrived surprisingly quickly! The cheesy chips were great. Lovely way to end the evening and hang out with some friends by the scenery :)

The food was quite good but ridiculously priced . Certainly rules out local people on local wages. Won,t bother again.

The staff were lovely. Food...... rancid butter on bread, boring salad ( that can be made to be more interesting) asked for salad with gammon got peas instead. Asked for second glass of wine some disgusting drink came back had to be returned undrinkable. Asked...

We came in for lunch and we both ordered the meat pie with mash and vegetables. The pie was nice with chunky meat and the pastry was perfect. The mash was good if a little dense but the vegetables were spot on and cooked to...

We have moved locally and have been twice in the last couple of weeks and enjoyed a lovely carvery on the Thursday lunchtime.. staff pleasant and helpful,
