Restaurant @ The Manor Hotel in East Devon

We go to this hotel regularly, every couple of months for a few nights. The staff are wonderful, warm and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble(borrowing an iron, a fan and breakfast in my room when I didn't want to go down,due to back problems). The choices for breakfast are good,but dinner in the evening is AMAZING! The menu is Indian cuisine, freshly cooked when you order, and prepared by an Indian chef,using all fresh ingredients. The lamb shank dish is falling off the bone and the food so delicious that we ordered a takeaway dinner on the day we left. Amazing food( the best I've had outside of India!).

We ate in the restaurant on the 5 nights it opens- Tuesday to Saturday. There is a good choice of food starters, mains & desserts all freshly prepared and nicely served by friendly staff. We enjiyed all the items we had & the wine was good too. You can also visit the Hat & Lemon bar for drinks and cocktails.

The restaurant is open Tuesdays to Saturdays. We ate here on 5 nights. Some evenings were busier than others. There was plenty of food choice- starters, mains & desserts and we chose somehting different each evening. Meals were freshly prepared and nicely served. The food was good as was theglass of wine we had each evening. There is also plenty of choice of drinks and cocktails in the Hat or Lemon Bar.

We decided to try this restaurant. It’s only been open a couple of months. We were the only ones there when we walked in, and when we left (after sending the food back), only two other tables had customers. We both ordered the lasagne.It came with greens and garlic bread. My husband dug into his lasagne…and came up with a big piece of plastic wrap! He had only had two bites. That means that the lasagne was NOT fresh, it was in the freezer or refrigerator and just stuck in a microwave to be warmed up. I didn’t touch my lasagne. The manager offered to give us something else and not charge us, but we opted to leave and go elsewhere instead.
