Stoke Canon Inn in East Devon

New visit last friday 01/11/24, as usual food and atmosphere great, well run pub very worth a visit. Previous visits to this great community owned pub, food very good. Just visited with a group of 21 people for a Friday meal at lunch time, all the food served very quickly considering the number of us there. All the meals were excellent with a very large selection to choose from, and also a great selection of desserts. All in all, a great place to visit. Revisited several times now, always good food and service.

Whenever I pop into this lovely pub the atmosphere is warm and friendly, great food and drinks. The roast meals are delicious and well proportioned. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff they bend over backwards with excellent customer service.

Lovely local pub run by the community. Was driving past and decided to stop. Was well worth a visit

Sunday lunch today was beautiful. Standard portion was great for us. Lovely slices of tasty roast beef and pork. Very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend this lovely old world community pub.

Very traditional community run pub.Situated right on the A 396 in Canon Stoke and with ample parking. However I was on my bike reached by level roads from the Thorverton area across the moors.Spent a pleasant few minutes there before riding back.Apparently their Sunday Roasts are very good. Would definitely call in again when in the area.

A lovely local community owned pub. The volunteers were so friendly and attentive. The food was amazing (steak on a stone!) and fantastic value. We need to support local individual places like this. A first class establishment. Thank you!

Visited this lovely pub while on holiday in Exeter, after popping in for quick drink we ended up having dinner. Partly due to the lovely smell of the food but also after seeing meals taken out to tables it was a no brainer 😂. We were not disappointed both meals were amazing, although stuffed we shared a lovely homemade cheesecake for dessert!

A lovely friendly welcoming community owned pub, great real ales and good food too

Great traditional pub. Friendly welcome from the team and other customers when we popped in a a rainy Sunday. Community run, excellent roast dinner and good beer. Very reasonable prices too. Dog friendly as well

Small car park. Good food. Plesent atmosphere. Will be happy to go again.

delicious home cooked Sunday roast....excellent size and quality....well worth it on Sundays....

The meat we had pork was absolutely incredible and came with crackling !!! Fresh cooked vegetables were lovely but there wasn’t a lot of but just purely down to the whole meal being so tasty I wouldn’t even mark it down for it !!!

Delicious home cooked roast dinner... beef and pork especially delicious....!!! Good portion size....

Wonderful friendly pub. Great food, staff, and atmosphere .

A community owned pub that needs more support, Carolyn runs the kitchen serving a selection of pub foodfrom 12 till 8 Wednesday thru Saturday. On Sundays 12 till 3.30 roast dinners and a limited menu are available. takeaways and collections are available also. The garden is beautiful, and the outside covered hub is always available, plus free parking. The pub serves real ales cider and lagers and wines and spirits. Prices are very reasonable, and all staff serving you are not paid employees. They are all volunteers.

Delicious food and absolutely lovely staff. Thoroughly enjoyed this local pub!

I didn't eat here however have seen others meals which do look hearty and nice. I went on a Sunday afternoon where they were hosting Bingo. Rare prices to play and lots of laughs to be had. Drinks were reasonably priced and the pub has a welcoming feeling. Parking available right next to the pub

Great food and great friendly service.Thamk you

Great food, and a friendly welcome. Thank you!

food arrived cold with alot of the gravy in the bag instead of on the food.

Generous Portions: Their portions are perfect for someone with a healthy appetite. You won't leave hungry! Great Variety: They offer a good selection of roasts, including some options for vegetarians. Fresh and Flavorful: The roast dinner comes with all the classic trimmings - roast potatoes, vegetables, and gravy - and everything tasted fresh and delicious. Overall, I highly recommend the Sunday roast at Stoke Canon Inn. It's a great option for a hearty and satisfying meal.

Old village locals pub. Community run.

Great time with wonderful service

Good choice of vegetables, meat had hardly any fat on it, well cooked and hot, 😋

It's absolutely lovely in there, the atmosphere, the food and of course the service, its so friendly, I go in whenever I stay at my sons house

Lunch after a walk with the dogs. We choose this venue after a phone call because of the need for a strictly gluten free meal for a Coeliac. Nothing was too much trouble and the chef was very aware about gluten having a family member with the same problem. Food was good, fresh, wholesome and swift. Dog friendly and, most importantly, people friendly. We'll be back!

Burger and chips was nice but the roast pork and lasagna were so bland

Great local pub for food & drinks.

Arrived cold. Very dry burger, no sauce at all in burger

Wouldn’t go anywhere else always arrives hot and so tasty and plentiful proper home cooked food 5⭐️every time 👌

Superb, could not fault food or service, recommend.

Greatt value for money fantastic food

Good value, nice food, delivered on quicker end of delivery estimate and was hot and tasty. Friendly delivery guy too!

Absolutely loved this community run pub. A proper village local. Everyone very welcoming. Good food, reasonable prices, dog friendly (treats available at the bar!) Stumbling into the Friday night raffle/Play your Cards Right was a bonus….

Can’t fault the quality of this food absolutely delicious and always arrives lovely and hot will always order a roast from the stoke cannon kitchen every time 👌

First time visiting today. Grandad enjoyed the "proper fire" Service with a friendly smile. Food was perfectly hot and tasty...Clean plates all round! Very reasonable prices. We will definitely be back 😋

Great disappointment not to be able to fish stoke cannon culm😢. Early lunch. Warm welcome by all present, especially bar person who turned out to be match secretary for our fishing club! Very good range of prices from under £10 to £15-20. Very generous chill & baked spud with separate salad & slaw. Really good. My fishing buddy had ham, egg, &chips. Again very generous portion.

Lovely food here got a delivery and food was still hot desserts were lovely too

Don't ask for a coffee in here, I asked for one and a very strange lady looked at me as if I was asking for the devil himself. Went once wouldn't go again, didn't feel comfortable 😕

A clean and welcoming village pub run by the community. Camra guide, so you know ale is good! Surprisingly good menu: Food delicious. Children's play area with sheltered BBQ backs onto fields.

Friendly pub with occasional music nights. Had a really good dinner with local cider 😋

Lovely delivery guy - Very good roast dinner - Good portion size - Highly Recommended

Shame. Food was cold. Potatoes not cooked. Sadly won't be ordering there again.

With regards to reply from my review, the total cost of the meal was £89, it wasn't per head, there were 4 of us.

What a miserable barmaid, (short grey curly hair). Not an ounce of personality, it has put us off going back, she was so rude! Food ok but not a lot of it, don't think this pub will be here in 12 months the way it is being run tbh..3/10

Lovely hot roast , loads of meat will definitely order again

Food was incredible and the pork and beef was done to perfection !!! Despite the order being 15 minuets late it was totally worth it and piping hot !! Maybe stuffing as a side would have topped it but overall tasty hot and cooked to perfection !

Lovely food,but not very big portions at all for the price,I did order near to the closing time,but that should not make a difference to be honest,so for that reason,I don't think I would order again.

My Dad and I visited this pub purely by chance after being in the area on our way to Exeter City FC to watch Blackpool. How lucky were we? A real lovely style pub, such a friendly warm welcome and a great pint! Great to have a friendly chat with the barman, who seemed genuinely interested in us as customers. The toilets were also clean and tidy, often a good sign. This is somewhere we’d both come back to again in the future. If you’re in the area, I’d highly recommend this pub. Five stars!

Literally the best roast ever and the fact they deliver to the airport is even better. Thankyou guys so much for making work alot more enjoyable.

Very friendly community run staff, great food

Visited with our Morris dancing side. Limited car parking at the pub itself but there is a big carpark next doors. Decent beer, decent prices, nice community feel and they were kind enough to put on a spread for us afterwards. What is not to like?

Lovely , very friendly locals as they run the pub, lovely food and drinks

Food was okay but not very warm when arrived!

Popped in here for Sunday lunch, as we were staying 5 mins away. We are both glad we did pop in. Very welcoming and friendly. Had not booked a table but that was no problem. Sunday lunch was superb, could not fault it l, and same for pudding. 5 stars all the way. 👌👌👌👌👌

Nice community run pub. Had fish and chips a great choice. Good selection of beers and Gin. Will visit again

Excellent quality. Food was hot on delivery. (Often not the case with other burger delivery restaurants).

I think perhaps our expectations were too high. But we were disappointed, Yorkshires & Potato's soggy, peas were a little too hard. Meal was however hot & delivery quick. Probably wouldn't order again sadly

First time in ordering from them absolutely delicious food two adults and two children’s pork roast price was reasonable the amount of food was excellent will definitely be ordering from them again

Very welcoming community pub, first time we went there felt so welcomed become regulars now, food is amazing and the choice is great children menu is great and Carolyn happily made changes for our fussy eater now he eats loads, go and try 😀

Great food as always, we had the roast dinner, well worth the money and totally delicious.. 👍

Great size portions, very nice Roast dinner, will definitely use them again *****👍

Amazing, nothing else to say. Thanks so much <3

Delivery was good but the food wasn’t so good

Excellent food as normal and Great delivery

Lovely roast dinner so tasty highly recommend will definitely be back happy customer first time but definitely will be coming back

Well recommended this friendly pub for a wonderful lunch. Choice of meals excellent for a lunch time. No delay in service although orders taken, meals cooked and even served by one woman! Customers and staff very friendly. Will certainly visit again

Didn't read notes on no veg so the person it was ordered from couldn't eat the roast due to issues with certain foods

The roast was AMAZING!! I shall never order a tobys carvery again. Good portions, superbly cooked, all fresh,hot and a right proper roast! Definitely be ordering again.

First time ordering from here, and so glad we did. Received a call saying our food was delayed as they were very busy which was no problem. They also double checked our address to make sure they found us quickly. The food was delivered still very hot by a lovely delivery man and absolutely delicious. Will definitely be ordering from here again, thank you!

Good, local pub atmosphere, run by the people for the people. Wonderful Sunday roasts, various size options and pricing very good value, other menu options on offer also. Book to avoid disappointment 🧐

Excellent service. Delivered on time and was hot. Will certainly use them again

First time ordering from Stoke Canon Inn and will be the last. Ordered a burger, lasagne and chips. Burger contained gone off onion, was really dry, chips tasted frozen / stale and the texture was almost soggy. Lasagne was basically a meat mix with cheese topping and some pasta sheets (lasagne has layers, this did not), and tasted as if it had been cooked, frozen then defrosted. Not sure how it took nearly hour to cook it all (it was dispatched at 8:45), but the food was barely hot by the time it arrived so probably a slow microwave! Lasagne contained salad which was also brown , and the coleslaw was THAT disgusting I actually gagged. 2 measly pieces of hard, cold garlic bread. Not sure how this has a 5 star rating unless most people have still lost their sense of taste since Covid. Not one to usually complain but this was a waste of £23/24 (plus £4 delivery charge).

Fish & chips absolutely fabulous!

It's the local pub, good food at a reasonable price, friendly helpful staff. What's not to like?

Fantastic food. Nice to have something different out where we live. Food was delivered still hot. In a timely manner

Very friendly and clean village pub. Had homemade tomato soup with hot baked roll which was great value and very nice. Run by the local community it's worth a visit if passing through.

Lovely food, delivery was VERY QUICK! Would definitely order again.

Couldn't fault it food is lush especially the malteaser cheesecake definitely recommended food from there

Wow! I have to say it was the best roast I’ve had apart from my mums! It tasted home cooked and everything was perfect, piping hot and very obviously cooked with love. The raspberry and white chocolate cheesecake was the perfect finish. First time ordering. Will definitely be ordering again. Great delivery man as well. Delivered with a smile.

Excellent service, lovely lasagna with salad, coleslaw and garlic bread, it was delicious. Dessert was great too. Thank you Stoke Cannon Inn.😀😀😀😀♥️

Food great as always, the biscoff cheesecake is still my favourite so far! So sorry about the drink mixup again, I’ll sort it next time! Thanks again! :D

Always lovely food. Go above and beyond to ensure you’re happy. 5*

Absolutely amazing food, was so tasty, proper homemade food and just what we needed after a long day at work.

Really good Sunday roast at a very reasonable price

The food was mostly hot and tasty but the salad and coleslaw REALLY need to be boxed up separately instead of in with the hot food. Such a simple thing would really improve the meal (and make us much more likely to order again).

Great roast and very friendly delivery man. Fantastic service.

Actually really nice! Defo eating here again. Delicious

nice food the delivery lady was nice

Great pub, great staff, just not sure about the food, it's good pub food, but it is a tad repetitive, items stay on the specials board for an unreasonable amount of time. It would be nice if things were shaken up a bit.

Really nice food, just not enough of it for the price.

Community pub. Slick service humble food. A proper village pub. Well maintained kids play park. Ample parking and beer lots of beer 🍻

Brilliant local and run so well by Pete and Maureen

Food was nice and hot, not waited to long would definitely order again.

The chips were good. Kebab awful, dark horrible meat. Didn't eat it, won't order again.

Called in on the off chance of to see if we could get a roast with very limited time on sunday...... Ladys we're very accommodating and polite, Roast beef and pork was amazing and just enough. Will definitely use again.

Ordered a beef roast … came hot , a large portion that I’ve split into lunch and dinner , everything perfectly cooked and rich , homemade flavours , honestly couldn’t be happier !

Community owned pub and very well run

First time ordering big portions well worth the money will order again
