It's a great cafe with lovely ambience. I went for my birthday lunch. Service was good and food arrived promptly. Both my son and I ordered burgers which were ok- a bit bland and coleslaw wasn't great but chips were good. Burgers tasted good once mustard, mayo and ketchup were added. It is a great place for coffee and cake or afternoon tea.

This place offers so much more than delicious food. Their deserts are pure bliss, plus you can shop for high quality food and a variety of flowers in the adjuscent shopsw. Walking towards the Powderham castle and visiting the premises are additional bonuses.

One of the best meals out that I've had! (Had the dish with prawn cocktail, smoked mackerel, smoked salmon, coleslaw and salad, and paid a small supplement to swap the bread for amazing skin-on, chunky chips! It was all delicious.)

Went on a Saturday morning had to wait 50 mins to get my order of coffees and scone, their excuse was it was busy, if u run a cafe with that many seats u should at least be able to manage, some people were waiting over an hour and some had there food finished it and still waited for their coffees, need to improve on the service

I had to sit and look at a huge photo of entitled blokes wearing dressing-up, about to chase and kill the wildlife with their horses and dogs. I find the glorification of blood 'sports' offensive.

A lovely variety of food, in a beautiful setting, if you fancy something a bit different. It's a small place so you would almost expect the standard fayre but they have a good selection of healthy alternatives including a specials board. We didn't have a cake, but they looked great too .. maybe next time.

On arrival at 9am when it first opened, we were met with zero customer service. The woman was miserable, I was told to help myself to the menus rather than be offered to take a seat & have the menus brought over. It was empty, we were the first in there and yet the table we sat at was still dirty. The place has become so scruffy, dirty & clearly zero staff training over the past couple of years. When we moved to Devon in 2021 it was a favourite of ours, lovely staff, amazing food. How sad it is nothing like it used to be :( Needless to say we looked at the menu then walked out, refusing to eat somewhere which was grubby & staff were clueless

A delightful little bistro with delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere. Having not been here before, but passing all the time, I decided to give this spot a try as I had family visiting. Admittedly, I was a little worried because I wanted something representative of locally sourced foods such as a heart ploughman's lunch, I wasn't disappointed. The menu had something for everyone, but surprisingly all my guests had the Ploughman's (Cheddar, Brie and Brixham crab) and thoroughly enjoyed the fresh, tasty, and generous lunch. The granary bread was a perfect match for all 3 of the meals. I had the open roast beef sandwich which was perfect and came with a generous portion of beef, perfectly cooked and full of flavour. The luscombe soft drinks were also a hit with everyone, along with a rich hot chocolate. Overall, my entire experience was great, from the meal, staff and atmosphere.

I ordered from the "Specials" board 3 meals, all the same. I paid for them only to realise I had appeared to have been overcharged. When I questioned this, I was told the price on the board was wrong and I had to pay the price from the printed menu for the same meal. Also, there was a couple next to us who were allowed to let their dog sit on their lap at the table. They were given snacks for the dog by the staff, and the dog was then eating from the table, including licking the table.

Very disappointed, came for Sunday lunch, having viewed a menu on line, but no roast sirloin, no venison haunch, no slow cooked pork, infact no Sunday menu at all. The food we did have was very good so it's a shame to be so negative, but please remove your Sunday menu if your not going to offer it. I was told you haven't had that offer for some time. I really was looking forward to a Sunday dinner not ham egg and chips, or a sandwich

Came in today, as was very hungry, and only was camping around a corner at the event. Walked in and was greeted by a sign saying wait to be seated. 5 minutes later, not attended by anyone walked up to the counter to ask if I could order some food, only to be told that it's table service, and we will bring the menus and and take your order at the table. Great, mentioned that I'm seated outside, and went to sit with my friends and my dog outside. 15 minutes later, still haven't seen any staff, to show any interest that the customers are waiting outside. Somebody else came and sat out side, and they got a dessert board presented instantly. Still nothing.... and all this time the lads behind the counter are yapping away with each other. Left... Not only hungry, but angry as well... Well worth a visit if you just want to sit about and don't get served...

Cycled here from Exeter on a bright sunny day. It was an hour’s ride on mostly flat path. Enjoyed a scone and some coffee. Lovely views and location. Plenty of inside, under the roof and open seating to enjoy the food and drinks. We were there before noon and the lunch starts at noon so could only have the items off breakfast menu. Would definitely recommend and will definitely cycle back there again.

Since my last visit here the Breakfast Menu has been revised, but sadly not for the best. Gone are the Bacon and Sausage sandwiches which is a great shame as they were so good. Hence the low score. I understand I am not the only person who has been disappointed. On the plus side, as always, the staff are as friendly, helpful and efficient. There is lots of parking with disabled spaces and easy entry to the café.
