Plymstock Inn in Plymouth

Excellent Sunday roast and it's served up to 6pm. A huge bonus! Family and dog friendly, with welcoming staff. Vegan options available too. A proper pub with well kept ales and a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit.

Great pub with lovely friendly staff well worth a visit

called here at the weekend as it advertised children's play area but sadly not open said they have got wasps . ordered food, hubby had belly pork with cider & cinnamon sauce & veg. Had to have chips with it as no mash available. Sweetcorn looked anaemic & was rubbery. cabbage was tasteless. Peas were overcooked. All looked like they had been reheated from yesterday. Belly Pork was tolerable but the sauce was like a jug of milk. Chips also looked & tasted as if they were reheated. I had a steak baguette - was not asked how I wanted steak cooked but that is irrelevant as it was mostly fat not steak. it was advertised as with peppercorn sauce but nothing. Spoke to the waitress who said she would relay our issues with the kitchen but nobody came back to us - ie management to apologize or anything NEVER AGAIN

Relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Family meal with great choice on menu of quality dishes. Reasonably priced and, of course, beer!

Nice and relaxing, new owners appear nice. We have had a Sunday roast here and it was brilliant, everything was hot and tasted amazing. We will be back again.

Me and partner came for roast today, I can now confirm this is prob the best roast we have had in a very long time. Well done chef and staff was very friendly . We will definitely be coming back .

Dog friendly pub in back streets of busy area of Plymstock. Popped in for a drink & light lunch yesterday as first choice pub was holding a wake. Friendly older barman served our drinks & said would take payment once we had chosen food. He made a fuss of our Spaniel, even rewarding him with a treat. Cheesy chips, chicken baguette & belly pork bits were our choice. Tasty, well presented & good portions was just the job to fill a hole. Pub was welcoming light & airy, with comfortable seating, although there was dirty glasses on a few empty tables. Purchasing a second drink, young lad serving was not so enthusiastic, almost to the point of being rude. Toilets both gents & ladies could do with an overhaul, strange smell in gents & very rusty radiator situated under hand dryer. Large free car park, nice play area and seating situated to the rear & side of pub.

Food very mediocre. Burgers were tasteless and tough. Burger rolls were cold as if they've been defrosted. Baccy cheese was like warm. Steak was very fatty and ridiculous amount of peppercorns in the sauce. Very cheap tasting food for not very cheap prices. The only nice things were the look of the pub itself and the really lovely professional waitress. But never going back. A flip flip with cheese in it would taste better than the burgers served there.

What a waste of money! Meal for 5. Very basic food. Burger was tasteless and tough. Burger rollers very cold, like they'd been defrosted. Mac cheese was luke warm. Steak was very fatty and 30 peppercorns in every mouthful of sauce. Food took ages to arrive. Every meal was bland and felt like from cheap ingredients. Very disappointing.

Disappointing meal in the pub. Rump steak was pretty tasteless on its own, not seasoned at all. Ordered the peppercorn sauce which was more like a paste of a huge number of peppercorns and very little sauce. Grilled tomato wasn't cooked at all. Wife had the burger that was equally tasteless and very dry. Chips were good. Maybe a bad day in the kitchen but unfortunately won't be back.

The food was lovely, the menu was limited but nothing I didn't like. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Group of 4 friends off the cuff chance to meet up, Plymstock Inn was able accomodate us for Sunday lunch. Good choice of meats came out piping hot plus large plate of cauliflower cheese included, one of the best Sunday roasts had in Plymouth, friends down from Sussex also impressed on value and quailty. Nice range of ales and lagers. Lovely staff came over to check all happy with meals on couple of occasions. Look forward to visiting again

Decent enough pub, only down side is that the main lights are on all of the time alongside the atmospheric lighting around the walls. This gives the feeling that all the lights have been turned on and it's time to leave.😁

Definitely changed chefs since I last came. I had Mac & cheese which tasted like it came out of a packet, not even crispy top. Leek just doesn’t go with cheese & pasta. Luke warm chips. Pipes need cleaning, terrible pint of Jail ale. Nice lad behind the bar though

Really nice pub. Been in for some food and drink and was quite nice. At the time of the visit was very quiet and I can really complain about silence. Thanks guys.

Food was awful. Chicken was dry, no bacon available, oven chips were overcooked

Had the chicken Sunday lunch, the best part was the Yorkshire pudding, everything was overcooked and slimes,the gravy was a gel, the chicken was overcooked and not nice at all. On top of that it was overpriced. Will not be returning

Nice inside area but we came here as was on a top 10 family pub as had a play area for children but unfortunately the play area is in disrepair With broken missing slide with yellow tape they put up but has also been ripped down properly by the children ! Play area is still open which has safety issues ! Also the fence between car park and the play area has missing slats and also broken which allows children to fit through and run straight into the car park It’s a shame the pub has not addressed the issues while still keeping the play area open

Excellent meal at the Plymstock tonight with my wife.We had the steak special and I could not fault it in any way. Everything cooked to perfection. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere. All went down with a couple of drinks in the Sunshine.

Used to come here a lot and really liked it, however the last 2 visits have been awful, wanted to sit outside but EVEY single table was dirty and it was midday with only a couple of other customers, park was broken and scruffy, went inside and it was the same, everywhere you look it’s filthy. Took my young daughter to the toilet and was shocked at how dirty it was in there as well. Food was ok but was put off with how dirty it was. Such a shame as it’s next to a beautiful church, sadly won’t be back

Mediocre at best. The man behind the bar was lovely and friendly with lots of banter. Had the steak medium rare. Both came out overdone and had lots of fat. The, half a tomato, was burnt on the outside but still raw and hard. Very small portion of warm-ish chips but a massive portion of peppercorn sauce. (Could of fed a table of 6 easily) I was having a really bad day already and didn't complain at the time because it wouldn't have gone well. It cost over £64 for that and 2 drinks. Left half of it and in a worse mood than I arrived. It's a nice place generally. Seating outside and a play area for kids, too. Lots of free parking. Just don't eat there.

Great food, first time here whilst on holiday, tidy pub nice atmosphere, family and dog friendly would recommend.

Lovely country pub in the middle of town. massive carpark,loads of outdoor seating, friendly staff and excellent service and food.

Lovley place very clean socal distance in place staff very good lots of parking child friendly

A week ago, three of us went to the Plymstock for dinner. My two companions were happy with their meals. I chose the roasted cauliflower and chick pea curry, this was listed as being accompanied by a flat bread. When my meal arrived there was no flat bread but two poppadoms. These were dripping with oil and tasted of the fried fish which another of my party had. The cauliflower had never been near an oven and was of the frozen variety, limp and insipid. The sauce was thin and had little taste of coconut or any spice. Not wishing to cause any embarrassment for my companions, or the staff, we paid our bill and left. I then sent an email, using the 'contact us' feature on the pub website. This detailed my experience, as above, giving the landlord the opportunity to review my comments and reply without having an adverse review. Now 7 days later I've not had any acknowledgement, much less a reply, leaving me little alternative but to post this review. I was disappointed with my meal but more so with the lack of courtesy of a reply. Edit. Here we are 6 weeks on and still no reply. Sadly , this speaks volumes. Edit2. 9 months later. Still no acknowledgement or explanation...

Met my son for a couple of pints and the service was quick and efficient albeit over priced £10.80 for 2 pints of Stella. Met the chef who was a lovely lady

Just came back from having two steaks with peppercorn sauce Steak was unbelievable tough gave up eating meal after a few minute Wasted £34 pounds in minutes gutted now I didn’t get a refund or apology

Me and my friend visited yesterday, and I have to say the staff are lovely and friendly, the food was amazing!! We couldn't believe the size of the roast! Great atmosphere too. We will be back!

Live Irish band Dr Thuds remedy great atmosphere with a large range of age's dancing. Give it a go, not too everyone taste but we really enjoyed the evening

Slow service,toilets were old and dirty However food was good,table was dirty It took some time to book a table at this pub as the phone no.on their post is incorrect When I mentioned this they agreed with me but its been like this for some time Just about sums up this place,couldn't be bothered Only a mile from home,but wouldn't go again

After a Google recommendation to stay here with our VW the pub and staff did not disappoint. Lovely and welcoming staff and tasty food. We cannot fault this pub.

Had a lovely Sunday Roast. Will definitely visit again.

Compliments to jade and Conner for a great lunch, food was lovely, chocolate brownie was delicious even tho I couldn’t manage it all, the set menu is really good value x

Great service and friendly staff. Enjoyed a few pints with some food with friends. It was a lovely sunny day in their beer garden with lots of families a great evening

Unfortunately the service was so slow and it wasn't even busy, took 50 minutes to bring our food out. The chips had skin on them which I hate, wish it had been mentioned on the menu.

Wow... 5 stars all round. Good price for delicious food. Wonderful service. Brilliant atmosphere. Have their roast! Delicious!

We haven't been in the plymstock inn since before the pandemic, and what a pleasant surprise it was walking in the door. Greeted with a big smile and hello. The bar had a good mix of table and chairs to eat in and comfy looking chairs and couches to lounge in and a rather spacious patio/beer garden with the sun belting down while enjoying a pint of Guinness while the good lady enjoyed a large white wine. We will definitely visit again and sample the food as others were being served. Their food looked inviting 😋 . Thank you, you maid us, feel very welcome and comfortable 😊

Good fresh cooked food & generous portions.

Great food and service. Lovely outside area and friendly staff. Large portions and food is lovely. Great value. I would definitely recommend.

Absolutely the best pub in the world.!!!! Fantastic staff Fantastic delicious food Beautifully cooked and delicious Even when they are really busy.!!! They always go over and beyond for everyone..!!! This one is a little gem.!!!! Cannot recommend enough.!!!!!

We tried the roast here and it was the best I've ever had, really was something special. We originally came as it said it had an outside play area for the kids but that was closed as I think it's due some work. Very happy with the food though and will absolutely be back if it's as good as the first time. Hopefully the phone line is sorted soon so I can book a table, I'd hate to miss out because it was fully booked.

Today my daughter and myself had a free re run of an Afternoon Cream Tea. It was absolutely amazing with everything you would expect. The staff were very helpful and friendly and couldn’t do enough to make this experience better. I would highly recommend this for any occasion.

Worst food I’ve ever eaten. Kids cheese burger and had to ask for cheese for the “cheese burger” I had mustard gammon… so they gave me mustard chicken. Mince meat in the nachos was just watery. Staff roles her eyes when we asked for cheese for the cheese burger. Will not be returning.

Delightful atmosphere, tasty steaks. Good value.

The pub was very busy, but the landlord squeezed us in for dinner. We both chose the homemade Lasagne, which was very good. We stayed for The Quiz, which was g8dç.

Good pub good service decent beer

Turned away for food because they were too busy. Barmaid was rude and couldn't really answer when they would be serving food again but instead gestured to the business Waited ages for our hot drinks

Nice place for a drink friendly staff

Food was mediocre, no atmosphere, overall expensive experience for food I could have cooked better at home, shame the pub has potential and used to be great

We have been here a few times and it’s so welcoming and you are treated really well by the staff. I have never had an issue with the food or drinks and it is really reasonably priced

Had a fantastic evening great staff lovely atmosphere food was lovely and a great price 2 steak meals with wine for £25 then we had a Desert for 2 which was a lovely variety of cakes .Will definatley be going again Steak nights are Wednesdays they also do a curry night on a Tuesday for £10 a head which I will be trying next

Only had drinks but lovely friendly pub. Very on trend with lots of sofas and different types of seating.

Absolute dump. Four people in pub that I have used for last forty years. Stood at the bar on my own for five minutes before I went into the kitchen and asked the barmaid if I could get a pint. Then ordered a steak. There were only four other people in the pub , was informed because they were waiting it would be 40 minutes.. steak was rectangular and terrible, chips were cold, would never use again. I’m 59 and this was the worst meal I’ve ever had.

I will start by saying I think this pub is great. Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Have visited a lot over the years. I just have to say that the food seems to have taken a bit of a dive recently. I get all the comments about it is not a restaurant but is a pub serving food… However, the food is sold at restaurant prices! I have posted picture of scampi & chips which is on the menu at £15. The chips were served cold and undercooked. Peas also cold. It’s just not a £15 plate of food! A couple years ago the food was amazing with home cooked daily specials.

A proper pub with cheerful helpful staff.

They catered for our entire family, over 20 people in one sitting and got the food out all together with a friendly atmosphere and very friendly staff, really impressed, will definitely be back!

Had a meal here last month. Service was slow, 40 minutes for food despite being half empty. Served uncooked, un mashed ‘ mashed potatoes’ had to return, given chips and reheated food. Given a free drink but wouldn’t eat there again.

Kids liked the play area, but food service was slow despite it not being busy. Quite a few menu items were also unavailable so all in all not up to it's reputation.

Great pub, and outdoor space and ambiance,.. to this lovely little village , I'd love to live here with this on my doorstep. Great food and service, enjoyed by my friend and I, although not my first visit here 🙂 Thank you X

Went for a dinner time drink in the sun.lovely pub. beer garden large with nice seating area.inside was also comfortable ,well laid out and clean. Service was very good. We'll work a visit

Twice here now and had to leave a review. Food is brilliant, kids love the outdoors play area and staff are amazing. Would fully recommend

Really lovely food and great allergen details on the menu making it easy to order.

Absolutely love this place, by far the best roast I have ever had.

Superb food, friendly service and very modern interior. Busy at weekends, would highly recommend - not expensive either 👍👍👍

I have disabilities and needed to use my gutter crutch rollator to access the pub and to sit in the patio area with my morris dancing pals, while I photographed them. Firstly, there are a plethora of disabled parking spaces at the entrance to the car park, and very close to one of the pub entrances. I used a different entrance with my pals and, apart from having to open a door, it was entirely accessible. There's even a disabled toilet! The bar staff offered to carry my drink out for me, although I was fine, and they were generally very polite and friendly. The pub no longer takes cash, which was its one slight downfall, but overall, it was a very good evening with a lovely old church opposite. For once, my disabilities didn't get in the way. Very well done.

Great staff, nice pub, good food

Everything is super, I liked it

Delicious food, reasonably priced and friendly service. Lovely outdoor area too with a play park for the kids

Food was delicious, scallops melted in the mouth, tasty garlic mushrooms, tortillas yummy ,belly pork looked good and the burger all stacked up 🤤. The place was clean along with the toilets , would love to go back 👍🌟

Just had an amazing roast beef dinner at The Plymstock Inn and it was lush lean meat lots of fresh veg roasties and Yorkshire Pudding. Needless to say we are going back with the family. Thank you to all the friendly staff well done xx

Your regular local pub. We have tried the Sunday roasts and they were fresh and tasty. Plenty of room and a play area for toddlers. Decent parking lot as well. The only downside was the toilets.

my partner was a bit disappointed with the small lasagne portion and loads of salad for £15, he thought it was a sample and the main course would follow, I had loaded nachos, there were 7 of us, all the meals we had were ample and very tasty. The lasagne was tasty just not enough.

Average pub food. Nice play area for the kids.

Not bad food ,50 minute wait though

Visited this place for the first time and was very impressed. It is tucked away in the centre of Plymstock near the church on Church Road. It has a big parking area behind the Inn. Inside is nicely decorated, including all old fittings that make it so charming. We went for a meal and it was exceptionally good. Food was freshly cooked, and portions were generous. We will definitely visit this establishment again. This time with our friends and family. If you are a dog lover, they can come in. We highly recommend this place to anyone.

A good place to have a pint. Not much atmosphere, but clean and tidy. Friendly staff.

Everything is super, the atmosphere is great, I really liked it

I'm reviewing the Plymstock Inn for what it is, an inn and bar that serves food. They are not a restaurant and don't profess to be. Meals and drinks are ordered and paid for at the bar. We visited for the Sunday roast which was very tasty. My husband has tried the mussels which he enjoyed. My Dad enjoyed the Guinness. The barman was friendly and helpful. It took a while for our food to get to us (again, not a restaurant). Great amount of outdoor seating and parking. Pet friendly and kid friendly. All in all a nice experience!

Le fish and chips était excellent sur la terrasse au pied de l église de plymstock..

Use this pub fairly often, usually for drinks but sometimes for food, Sunday lunch has always been good. Went in last week and was delighted to see one of the old staff has returned to work there after leaving a few months ago. She always looked after us very well and seemed to never stop working when the pub was quiet! Welcome back Leigh.

Meal appeared to consist of frozen food , staff indifferent, wine unchilled, staff began turning lights off at 8.45 and then sat in corner drinking so we felt very uncomfortable and left. When we asked about chicken specials we’re told there weren’t any. No receipt given . Very poor service and disappointing evening.

Great place for food and the staff are very friendly. I had the massive Plym burger which contained grilled chicken, bacon, cheese and a beefburgers. Came with fries and coleslaw, what a feast. Partner had a great steak which came with chips and a side of Mediterranean vegetables which was a nice twist. I will definitely be going back.

Very friendly staff and we enjoyed an excellent meal. Starters were very generous (I can recommend the chicken skewers) and the mains were delicious. I had a Plym burger which was filled with a grilled chicken breast, a beefburger, cheese, bacon, salad and sauces all topped off with onion rings - fries and coleslaw on the side. My partner had a well cooked steak, chips and the twist was Mediterranean vegetables on the side instead of salad. Will definitely be going back again.

Popped in for drinks as viewing a house next door. Only had drinks but staff were friendly and welcoming. We'll return another day.

Our local pub, visit often for a nice pint of our favourite Madri, food has been up & down over the last few months. Tonight though, a New Menu was in place, rather than going for one our normal choices, Burger or Chicken, we went for something different. The teenager, loves Mussels, if there are Mussels on a menu, he has them! So he thought he would sample them. WOW amazing, a kilo with large fresh Mussels, fabulous sauce. Another choice Seafood Paella, another WOW filled with fresh seafood. Classis Ceasar Salad with Chicken, again lovely. So try their new menu highly recommend. By the way don't normally leave reviews, but this was deserved.

Ordered a delivery roast today it was cold, roast potatoes wasn’t roasted long enough they was like boiled potatoes and really salty, for £31 for 2 roast dinners you would like it hot. Really long to be delivered was 2 hours. ordered 2 drinks too and they didn’t bring them delivery girl didn’t know about the drinks, she was polite and could apologise enough.

Great food, good service, nice people. The place was huge and clean with a good play area. Has baby changing facilities.

If you have kids, this is the place to come, especially if the weather is good. Lots if choice of outdoor areas for kids, families, and adults, as well as dogs, some areas sunny, others shady, some grass and others paved, and a range of seating and play equipment to choose from. Huge space inside too. Really nice atmosphere and very accommodating staff. You could easily spend hours here with the family and be very happy.

My partner wanted a baby shower with a twist. (For everyone) all family and friends. So I booked the plymstock inn for a buffet for about 40 people. The food and the service we received was amazing. The bar supervisor looked after all of us and nothing was too much trouble. Will highly recommend for events.

I booked and attended a funeral wake at the Plymstock Inn and the food provided was delicious and plentiful and at a reasonable price. The service was superb and discrete. The area set aside for our party was comfortable, warm and bright (it was a lovely sunny afternoon) which helped to lift everyone's spirits. I would highly recommend the Plymstock Inn for any type of catering event.

Wow this place does amazing food especially the daily special which was Confit of Duck. The chef and their team are doing an amazing job here and would definitely recommend coming here. The young ladies that are working behind the bar are also doing a great job. They even do doggy treats for free.

Went as party lovely food, clean premises and very friendly staff. Good value as well. Only complaint my eyes were bigger than my belly

We went to the Plymstock on Saturday night and it was very busy. There only two behind the bar but they were doing a sterling job. We did not have food but what we saw looked good and will definitely be trying it. It was good to see the barstaff joking with the customers. Made a change from the robots you get in some places.

I pop in on a regular basis and there is a young blond lady call Jasmine I think and she’s always been amazing! Always got a smile on her face, amazing manners and always making sure I am well! The pub is extremely lucky to have her work there. I have seen her deal with awkward customers who do sat very inappropriate things to her! So I think they should give her a big pay rise and promote her! I always give her a tip when I leave but it does Frustrate me that she dose not get it and that it all goes in a pot and shared out to other staff!when she deserves it all! There is also an older gentleman who works there and he also works really hard always happy and friendly! Ian the legend!

Just moved to the area and heard good things about this place so decided to give it a go for my anniversary meal. We were made to feel very welcome, the staff were extremely friendly, prompt and efficient, the food was delicious and the portions...

Tried The Plymstock. Was great. Had the ham hock. Old school. Staff were informative and explained a new menu arrives soon. We will be back and looking forward to it.

Attended a reception and I could not fault it. The food was delicious both hot and cold within the buffet. All in our party were of the same option the food was great and plenty of it. The staff were extremely attentive and could not...

We went to The Plymstock for a family birthday celebration. We ordered our food at 5.45pm and three meals finally arrived at about 6.30pm. My meal hadn't arrived. Eventually, the waitress came back and said my meal would be a couple more minutes. Five minutes...

We went to a wedding reception sep22 the food was great (hot buffet) the staff were helpful and friendly and Emily couldn’t have been more helpful. Thank you to everyone All at the reception what a great find for the reception.

Five of us went for lunch and were not disappointed. Delicious food and plenty of it. The staff were friendly and efficient. I will definitely be returning.
