Phoenix in Teignbridge

The salt and pepper pork was stunning. My husband fish and chips were on the same par. So looking forward to Christmas day. Had one of the most chilled nights for a ling time. Thank you to everyone there. Damn good job.

We visited The Phoenix for my mums birthday meal … wow! What an amazing meal that was. Delicious food & great service. We will be back!

Went for a meal out with the family, and everything was great. Proper food made from scratch, had a pork belly and was cooked to perfection. Deserts went for the chef’s choice and was delicious. Congratulations to the chef and all the staff. Definitely a place to visit again!!

We booked the Pheonix for a Sunday lunch with 54 of us sitting down. Great Ambience with a lovely bar. Terrific service vey attentive and extremely well organised by Tracey and her team. Food was fantastic and plentiful. Brilliant 3 course lunch. The chef and his crew did an amazing job. All 54 more than happy and proper portions artistically presented. What an absolutely cracking place a little Gem. We have all said we will be back. Easy to find and the large adjacent town car park with a walk through to the high street made access for all really easy Brill. Thank you so much

We dropped in with a last minute booking with friends. We had just main courses as they are massive and all were delicious! I had the steak and mushroom pie it had suet pastry and was delicious

Lovely setting along with lovely staff and a great menu choice. Whitebait along with homemade tartare sauce were a perfect starter. I chose the roast beef Sunday lunch and everything was cooked to perfection. The ladies had risotto and they really enjoyed the smoked salmon along with whole prawns. Everyone else enjoyed their meal as well. Many thanks and see you next time we’re in the area

The food was incredible. The staff was really kind to each host. The whole place had very nice furniture. I would definitely recommend this place, it was 5 stars out of 5:)

Headed to Phoenix from finlake due to good reviews and didnt disappoint. Great food. Everyone loved their dinners. Chips were amazing and the biscotti banana pudding was worth every calorie!! Team were really accommodating of fussy kids. Wld def recommend.

We booked the Phoenix as we were staying close by for the weekend. We were a family of 5. We sat down and they took our drinks order. They had a good selection of wines so my hubbie I and shared a delicious Primitivo. We ordered a selection of 4 mains (2 steaks, a gammon, mussels and the fish special). All were exceptional and the chips were to die for (and I don't usually like chips). We finished off with the special dessert, lemon posset and 2 of Ian’s Signature Cups (Hand Crafted Tuille Biscuit Cup- Saucer and Teaspoon filled with Belgian Chocolate Mousse- Topped with Clotted Vanilla Ice Cream) the kids say 'not to be missed!'. It is a shame we don't live closer as I am sure this would be a regular for us all.

We have been many times to this place, and have never been disappointed. The food is good value for money and we enjoy the spectrum of the menu. What brings us back time after time though is the waiting staff that seems to pull out all the stops and make the dining experience a pleasant one. The only thing that this time was a bit off was a rowdy group of people who were at a bar table behind us which made it at times difficult to hear each other talking. This is of course no reflection on the venue but of people who do not behave considerately. We will continue going to this place and keep recommending it to friends whenever the subject comes up.

Yard a bit congested with trucks. Tight entry/exit for artics

Good for a quick drink it’s mostly set up for dining for which we didn’t have Menu looked good but didn’t tickle my taste buds on this occasion

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch here. Great food ,friendly staff, service excellent. Would recommend 10/10.

Four of us dined here on our last night staying in a holiday cottage in Chudleigh, and had a great time. Staff were really friendly and efficient. All the food and wine was great but the starters were particularly excellent: scallops with black pudding; a mixture of prawns, calamari and whitebait; pork skewers. And I thought it was reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

Excellent food and service. It's easy for a busy pub restaurant to let things slip on a Saturday night, but not a sign of it here

We had a lovely breakfast here yesterday. They accommodated to us so well and all the food was really good and presented lovely. Due to having such a good experience we were really surprised by how reasonable it cost when the bill came.

Fantastic Sunday Lunch. Well presented and very tasty. Lots of meat and good portion of vegetables. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

As usual amazing food and never lets us down. I recommend to my guest in our air bnb every time. We went with friends and the steak is amazing defo the best.

We all loved this fabulous restaurant. Tracy and Co could not have been any more helpful and the food was fantastic. The best steak I have eaten for a long time. A must if you are in the area.

Great food and fantastic service. The fish was really fresh and the burgers really tasty. Fantastic!

Wow! Probably the best roast dinner we've ever had!!! We phoned very last minute to see if they had a table available after seeing on FB they were open Sunday evenings in the school holidays. We were advised they were very busy at the time we wanted, but were extremely helpful given us an alternative time, we excepted and went along for pre drinks first. So glad we did, the staff were very helpful, chatty and although they were very busy made us feel very welcome. All the staff were smiling and working well with a little team banter 😂😄 . Once seated the waitress took our order, Roast beef and all the trimmings. A young lad brought out our food, very charming and lovely manners, the food was very well presented, beautiful fresh vegetables and a very generous portion. It all taste absolutely amazing, I had to ask how they made the gravy, it was the best I'd ever tried! The two chefs, I think they were called Ian and Liam? talked me through how to make a decent gravy lol, I felt very embarrassed admitting i use Bisto gravy granules 😂🤦‍♀️. To finish the evening we had a mango meringue and a coffee. Absolutely stunning food and company. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely place to eat and a lovely warm welcome. We will definitely be returning. Would highly recommend this Gastropub.

We went for an evening roast last night. The food was excellent, beef was perfectly cooked (medium rare) everything freshly cooked, not left overs from lunchtime. Plenty on the plate too! I was hungry and couldn't eat it all. Think we sat next to a serial moaner. As I heard the woman complaining that it was very average. Funny cos they'd almost took the pattern of their plates. Will definitely go again. Thanks team phoenix

Absolutely not worth a visit. I totally accept a roast dinner at the the end of the day is taking a risk of eating the dregs of the day but this is another level. Dry meat, sloppy veg, served frozen Yorkshire puddings (even though other plates had home made fresh, not sure if they thought we wouldn’t notice) and I suspect frozen potatoes. I asked for a discount on the meal and I was told ‘you ate it’. Yes we did, we were starving but it didn’t make the meal any less dreadful. Rose was nice. Website gives a false pretence of a Glastro pub, it’s not.

Went in for a drink and after seeing the food being served went back the following night for dinner. Food excellent all freshly made. Staff friendly and good atmosphere lovely place for a meal. Definitely go back if in the area

How lucky are we find this wonderful place! Fresh local fish and crab was amazing. We will definitely be back, dogs are welcomed too👏

we only planned to go for a couple of drinks but when we arrived,we saw that there was a tapas night on. although it was busy, we were lucky enough to get a table and were glad we did- the food was very good-lovely selection.the gambas and crispy cod chunks were especially good.service was excellent as always with staff friendly and welcoming.we're very lucky to have the phoenix right on our doorstep. thanku, please keep doing what you're doing 😊

What a great Italian night we had , food was exceptional all three courses superb, Ian & Liam in the kitchen are very talented. Tracy, Emma and the girls are very professional and good fun, looking forward to the next theme night

Had drinks, breakfast and evening meals here at the weekend. All were excellent . The owner and her staff were all lovely. Meals were some of the best and would highly recommend this restaurant .

What a little gem so glad we found this place. A real good quality Sunday lunch full of flavour and presented beautifully. Staff are so friendly and nothing too much trouble. I will definitely be back. Me and my mother had the small child size...

Absolutely fantastic food and service. Couldn’t have asked for better on our last night on holiday.

Absolutely terrible food, my 13 can put a better dish together. Bland, burnt and dry. The chef is better at painting than cooking. The restaurant and staff are awesome but the food is a disgrace.

Booked a last minute table on a Sunday Morning They had been caught out by an unexpected influx of customers Despite being very busy with reduced staff, yet again they proved to be unfazed Great service polite, humorous staff, great food all in all the...

Been in a few times for a drink and a couple of times for food. The food was lovely and the chefs seem like nice people. We were advised by a lot of locals not to go in there (they said they would not part...

My partner and I had a wonderful Valentines experience at the Phoenix Chudleigh. We were warmly welcomed and seated promptly at a table for two, which was beautifully dressed for the occasion. The menu offered a wide selection of dishes, all of which sounded delicious....

Friendly staff, nice food and a good atmosphere. Something on the menu for everyone and great cocktails.

We thoroughly enjoyed the friendly service and excellent food here last night. The haggis bonbons on black pudding were light and delicious and the Cullen Skink fantastic. Almost too full for the cranachan but it would have been a crime to leave any! Congratulations to...

Dropped in for lunch, and from the specials we had fish and chips, and salmon with a saffron hollandaise sauce. The fish and chips were superb, the best I have tasted, and the Salmon was sublime, superbly cooked, with scalloped potatoes, tender stem, and a...

We visited on a Saturday night at 7pm. A handful of people were inside. The manager was sat in the bar on a tablet when we arrived and so there was no one to greet us. My partner approached her to ask about our reservation...

We have eaten at The Phoenix many times and it has always been consistently good, but last night it was very good, we had three different meals and each one was perfectly cooked and very tasty. Prices have increased as to be expected but don't...

I live locally and am a frequent visitor to The Phoenix (I can walk there so I can always have a 'drink' if I like!!). The choice of menu is varied to cater to different tastes and is always delicious; I've had meat, fish, vegetarian/vegan...

If you're in the area of Chudleigh Devon and looking for a place to eat The Pheonix is excellent. We are a family of 4 all with different tastes and they were met by a well thought out menu and an excellent specials menu. I...

Our third visit to the Phoenix didn't disappoint. With no booking we arrived just after the kitchen had closed but the chef was happy to cook our order. I had the paella which was amazing and my wife had chicken supreme which she thoroughly enjoyed....

We last visited for takeaway between lockdowns and decided to visit again. It was so worth it, the food was amazing. Considered the Wednesday special of fish and chips, which looked really nice on other tables but went for sea bream instead. Wow! Outstanding! Nice...

We dined here on 9th July whilst on holiday from Scotland, my husband ordered the fish and my daughter ordered the burger, both were amazing, I had an issue with one of the cuts of rump I had ordered. One melted in your mouth, and...

We went to this restaurant a few years ago, on my birthday and we were really impressed as it had no long opened but everything...the food...the atmosphere...the staff, you would have been forgiven for thinking it had been running for ages. Anyway we thought we...

My wife and I visited on Saturday evening 11th June. Warm friendly greeting and good service. The meal was excellent. We both enjoyed our food. We are in the area on holiday but will manage to fit in another visit before we leave the area.

Fabulous bar/restaurant, quirky and a great atmosphere. Made to feel very welcome and our dog was fussed by the staff. Family of four, we ordered two rib eye steaks (chef made a peppercorn sauce on request), fish and chips and the pork belly. Every dish...

Lovely staff and food! was incredible. We had satay chicken and a goats cheese tart to start followed by the dirty burger and pork belly would highly recommend, the presentation of the food was very enticing.

Visited the phoenix as a family of 3. The food was superb and the service matched. Very warm, friendly and inviting setting. We would definately visit here again.

Very polite and friendly people ...

Sunday carvery was beautiful. Glad we booked as it was busy and there were 8 of us. We all had the beef, LOADS of meat, plenty of veg and a variety too, including parsnips and roasted beetroot. Considering it was busy and there were a...

Fantastic food as usual. The brunch is the best all day breakfast in Devon in my opinion. Good value, high quality ingredients, and friendly staff make The Phoenix a superb restaurant.

2 of us had breakfast - 1 full, 1 small. We each had coffee with it. The breakfasts were tasty and filling. Yummy.

Came here last Saturday for my birthday. Although the restaurant was busy we were looked after by Emma who attended to our needs. We never had to wait long to get a member of staffs attention. The cocktails were lovely, the food was amazing. It...

Come here with my partner for a Sunday roast! Very welcoming, good service and attentive. No hassle with booking or making changes. As for the food, it was excellent and tasty! Will definitely come here again! :)

Popped in for a quick bite. Waitress prompt and helpful. Carpet filthy a not hoovered from day before. Flat beads our dishes of choice. My wife's was okay, mine however was advertised on the menu with roasted butternut squash and roasted beetroot. The beetroot appeared...

Tried to book a couple of days ahead for Tuesday evening and was told they were fully booked. That was encouraging, so asked about the following evening, Wednesday. Yes, they could accommodate the 5 of us. Strangely, during all the time we were there, there...

I’ve got to be honest the food is very good, it is just let down by the front of house service. You are not welcomed with a smile, on our visit we were not taken to our table. The waitress pretty much through our deserts...

Thought this was a pub, but much more like a restaurant. Nice round table for 6 of us and helpful, friendly service. Very reasonable prices for good-sized portions. Duck Wonton and Arancini were particularly good starters and dirty burger from the specials list was an...

We dined at the Phoenix this evening for a family dinner, although the service was slow (understandable due to covid) I cannot fault the food and friendliness of the staff. The children's food was adult quality and plentiful and the adult mains were mouth watering...

Wow….great food, great atmosphere, great service, top marks from us :) thanks for a wonderful meal!!!!! Very happy and full tummy’s

Cannot fault the food, tasted amazing and such great value for money, you can’t complain. Presented really well and they take pride in what they serve. Only thing that let it down was the service- a bit slow, appeared to be only 1 waitress serving...

Another visit to The Phoenix - a regular for us when at our cabin at Finlake. Food excellent and served by attentive and pleasant staff. Highly recommend

Lovely Bistro food, in a wonderful setting. It is located in the entrance in the high street so needed to park behind the co-op. The staff were welcoming and chatty, It was lovely dinner with lovely waitresses

Was very pleased with the roast dinner we had here this week! Very happy staff and excellent tasting food with big portions!

My wife and I visited early June. We didn’t pre book but the staff made us very welcome and found us a table for two. We were impressed with the COVID measures and felt safe. The food was excellent - I had the Veggie breakfast...

Myself and my husband had a delicious roast at the Phoenix today following a recommendation from a friend. The portion size was generous, the service was great and the price was fair. Everything was fresh and beautifully presented. We will definitely be back!

Our friends and I visited just after lockdown and were blown away by the quality of the food and service! Highly recommend the creed chicken and chocolate pot pudding! The chef even dropped us back to our accommodation after we realised there were no taxis...

On Good Friday we had the most amazing Indian Banquet delivered by Tracey. 2 different curries, 2 different rice, naan, poppadoms and loads of sides and sauces. Great value for money at £30 for 2 people, enough for three. We've been shielding for a year...

We visited here yesterday as a group of 4 adults and 2 children and what a lovely meal. The adults all had steak which was fantastic, really good quality meat and well presented. The children’s meals were great, good sized portions which the two thoroughly enjoyed.The deserts were hard to choose - the chocolate brownies were spot on (probably one of the best we have had out) and the lemon and treacle tart was equally as good.Friendly and welcoming service where the owner and staff were as attentive with the children as the adults.Will definitely return if we have time whilst we are away.

We enjoyed a Fantastic Sunday lunch, the roast beef was delicious! my husband had fish and chips and daughter a burger. All great quality and friendly staff, highly recommend

We went with our elder daughter for Lunch at the Phoenix. I would class my wife and myself as in the vulnerable population. We immediately felt comfortable as it was obvious a great deal of thought had gone into coping with Covid 19. Directed to a table that was distanced from other tables. Plastic screens were in place around the bar area and where the tables could not be distanced. Orders were placed at the table and all condiments were in sachets. The food was very good, in particular my river Teign mussels were excellent. You need to book and they also offer a takeawy service

Tracy and the team have done a fantastic job making the Pheonix feel safe. I took my parents there who are well into their 70's and they commented how well organised it was..this was the fiest time they had been out for a meal since February. Food and servuce as always was fab

We found this place via trip adviser reviews of restaurants near our Holiday park, Finlake. We were definitely not disappointed! The service was very attentive and the food was excellent! Good choice of food on the menu, I had the pork belly (cooked to perfection) and my wife had a chicken kebab on the specials menu - she loved it!.Overall, very impressed and will be returning on the last night of our holiday.

The restaurant was really well organised, tables spaced out, screens between tables and we felt very comfortable eating here. The staff were really friendly & our chicken teriyaki noodles were delicious.

Arrived for dinner slightly early, for which we apologised, to have it confirmed that we had arrived early and our table wasn't ready. So, started off feeling unwelcome. Had a drink in the bar area, and ordered our meals. Great spacing between tables. Food was very good, although, my pizza had BBQ sauce over the top of it, which there was no mention of on the menu. The young waitress was excellent. Desserts were exceptional. Only real issue was the slow service. We would have easily ordered another two rounds of drinks, but were never asked and had to chase to get the second lot of drinks. Your loss, unfortunately.

Family meal out, the food was excellent and the menu had plenty of choices. Covid rules met really well and not in your face. Staff friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended will be going back!!

We ate as a family of four. This is definitely one of the better places we visited in the area, very Covid aware they have put all measures to ensure everyone feels comfortable, they have screens and tables a good distance apart. Very friendly staff/management. The food was all very nice, some good options for vegetarians and gluten free. Overall was a little over priced for the standard we thought, not the best, however no complaints and we certainly had a good meal, the desserts are a must!

I visited here with my family including my 3 year old. Right from the off we felt comfortable and safe as they adhered to covid restrictions. The service was brilliant. The waitress was so helpful and very good with my little boy. There were several lovely vegetarian options, which is often not catered for more than just a cheese pizza! Everyone in our party loved their food and drink too. Great quality. Well worth a visit!

Was staying locally so decided to treat ourselves to a meal out. Having not even visited a shop we were anxious we would feel safe being out for the 1st time since lockdown but we needn't have worried. We booked before and they took all our details and social distancing was amazing here. The landlady was so friendly and had thought of everything to make it as safe as possible, including screens, disposable menus, gloves and masks. Anyway, there were only a handful of tables and but still a lovely atmosphere.Food was delicious - ribeye steak, Katsu curry and kids meals enjoyed thoroughly by all. Clean plates all round! Puddings also great, delicious sticky toffee.Totally recommend here for a meal

Brilliant! Fantastic starter, main & pudding 👍with the most amazing friendly staff 🥰😊unable to fault👍

We had dinner here whislt in the area visiting family. 1st things 1st in this mad world. The pheonix is dealing with covid 19 in a profesional manor and i felt safe, screens and face mask, good distance a proper job. The pub itsel is lovley old world good location. I didnt have an issue with the food, it was fine just not 5 stars. " pizzas looked nice and the steak i had was ok .... but i have had much better. Pepper sauce was a bit bland. Girls serving were great and teh German beer was good just need to elivate the food a bit.

We had some pizzas from the Phoenix last night and they were absolutely superb. I can honestly say that they the best pizzas we've had! Much nicer than the usual takeaway pizzas from other establishments. You can tell that the chef enjoys making these, they really do seem to be made with love. Highly recommended!!!

After 17 weeks of lockdown, we booked a table for drinks, all very well organized, with screens between tables, had a lovely evening seeing friends at other tables, took a takeaway pizza home, which was absolutely delicious, well done Phoenix team, feel very confident in returning, wish you all a success in these difficulty times

Wow! The best pizza I have tasted in a very long time. Friendly staff and reasonable price! Well worth it.

My friends and I visited the pub on Sunday having heard that the Sunday lunches were good as we were in the area we booked and we were not disappointed.The staff were friendly and our friend who managed the pub in the 70s (pre fire) was able to go down memory lane.The Sunday lunch was absolutely fab!If you haven’t tried it you must!

we came in last night to eat 5th March 3 of us were not local but one was very local 3 min walk .. on Arrival to the bar the young lady was quite abrupt to the point of being rude when ordering drinks let alone when ordering our food ...... The Food was nothing special we all enjoyed it except the Lentil burger was so over cooked and looked burnt ........value for money was good , but would ask management to have a chat with staff to give a much warmer greetings

Came in for the steak night with my partner and son. Amazing food, amazing service. Highly recommended

Firstly I would like to say thanks for the team who accommodated a few last minute changes to our reservation! The decor and atmosphere is lovely. We often pop in for breakfasts as we live nearby. Today we enjoyed a family Sunday lunch. We all had roasts (pork, or chicken or beef) which were excellently cooked and presented along with delicious veggies. Waiting staff were friendly and accommodating. One tiny negative is that we were not asked if we were enjoying our meal - which we were! Some of us then enjoyed puddings- I certainly recommend the brownies which are out of this world! There is a good range of wines, beers and spirits.We love The Phoenix because of its location, atmosphere and great food. I love the fact it does not feel like it is part of a chain because so much thought and dedication is put in to the menu and presentation.

Had the valentines special menu last night which was beautiful!! The chocolate fondant was the best I’d ever had in my life! The staff are all very friendly & helpful & the decorations last night looked so lovely!! Highly recommend 👍🏻❤️

Visited here this afternoon whilst on holiday at Finlake. The staff were so accommodating to fit us in at a time that made sure we had the best service. Service was excellent from start to finish. Roast lamb was incredible!!! Lovely selection of veg and it was all so tasty. Offer of under 3s eat free was perfect as our little one never eats much. All of our desserts were lovely but Ians chocolate cup was the highlight!

We go to the Phoenix every time we visit finlake - they serve lovely food and breakfast is my fav there - little known fact is that you can also buy the artwork on the walls - today I bought The girl with a Pearl earring ..

Used to go most Fridays for fish and chips and was priced just right at £40 for four, now its £50 for four so 20% hike and they now charge extra for peas! That’s an extra £8 for four!Sadly it will be a now and again treat rather than every week.

Not much to say only, fab food, fab service, fab prices, love it here. A typical establishment that serves homemade , lovely food. Friendly service, good prices and easy to get to. Parking can be a bit tricky but there’s a car park less than a five minute walk away,

My hubby and I were on holiday at the nearby Finlake holiday park and came across this gem only 5 minutes from the park. The manager Tracey was very welcoming as was all the staff. The food is off high quality but did not have the expensive price tag to match. We can highly recommend the mushroom and poached egg starter, cheesy leek cakes, pheasant and steak . A special mention needs to be given for Ians Signature cup dessert. The food and atmosphere was that good we ended up going 4 times out of a 7 day holiday . I would recommend booking for fridays and weekends but this can easily be done on their website. There is no parking but there is parking on the road outside or a large car park 2 min walk away (by the Coop and doctors) . We will definitely returning to Devon and to this restaurant

We visit The Pheonix quite regularly because we enjoy the whole package that this restaurant has to offer, from the welcome you receive generally given by Emma or Courtney, you are always made to feel welcome and even when they are busy, they make time to have just the right amount of friendly banter. When the owners are on duty they are always very friendly and chatty, especially Tracey as she is front of house, whilst we very rarely see Ian as he is busy being one of the excellent chefs in the Kitchen. We have had breakfast lunch and dinner here, also just coffee and cake with friends. This evening we just popped in for a one course dinner. Greeted by Emma, we were made to feel welcome, she was cheerful, friendly, chatty and professional, she certainly knows her job. Asking Emma who the Chef was because we wanted to comment on the excellent meal we had, she replied Sam is The Chef tonight. I had belly pork, my husband had a a rib eye steak and both meals were served with daphanoise potatoes and five different vegetables, all presented beautifully on very hot plates, so therefore our meals stayed hot, it was delicious and excellent value for money. Well done to all involved, keep up the good work. We will return again soon. We would thoroughly recommend The Phoenix.

We went to the Phoenix for Sunday lunch, which was overall good.
