The Copper Penny Inn in West Devon

Lovely old pub, fabulous food and even better prices. The owner seems lovely and so do the staff. Defo recommend

Not the best experience food tasted of the same thing the oil it was cooked in but it was a roast and veg should taste of veg.

Fantastic food and extremely friendly owners. We regularly go here and love it.

Went for a meal. Interesting pub. Chicken had turned. Fingers crossed no food poisoning, Cute pub. Would go for a drink again, but not food. Which is a shame as it could be an interesting visit.

We found this little gem on the way home and the staff and food was lovely, The staff were very polite, courteous and warm, They even sung happy birthday to my wife as it was her birthday. We returned the next day for the carvery which was really delicious and well prepared. Thank you for showing us your hospitality skills and the bar maid that served us was very warm and professional so thank you so much for making our visit to Cornwall very enjoyable.

Lovely little place with an attached farm shop. Plenty of covered seating outside to enjoy your meal. The attached farm shop was well stocked with local and independent products and also serves hot drinks and food for travellers passing through. For my fellow wheeled adventurers there is a ramp into the Inn and the shop is flat though the aisles are a little narrow for a chair. I used a walking frame and hitched the seat up to squeeze through without an issue. The owner also offered to move things to make it easier but it really wasn't necessary in my case. The toilets are located outside and kindly left open even when the Inn is closed. There is a disabled toilet accessible with a radar key. We couldn't try the food from the Inn on this visit but we've saved this place in our factories to stop by on our next South West adventure.

We had the Sunday roast here today. The food was really good and plenty of it. The pub has the feel of a family home with all the staff being really helpful and cheerful. Excellent value for money.

Lots of varied products from fresh cakes bread eggs to plants herbs frozen food locally grown fruit and veg. Also honey and jams and so much more.

Place was closed when we got there so can't really comment too much but had a milkshake from self service milkshake machine next door to it.

Extremely disappointed. Booked well in advance given the size of our party - including dogs. We were not seated together, got overlooked at the bar for locals ordering drinks, meals randomly appeared over 1hr45, a real vary in quality- game pie was deemed a hit but most of the others were not great, lasagna burnt and the garlic bread burnt outside and cold butter inside as an example. Final straw was waiting for the last meal, everyone else had eaten, we asked for it to be cancelled so we could just pay and leave - we had been seated for nearly 2 hours at this point. It was then rushed out and was basically raw chicken. The young girl serving was just left to it. No owner or manager interaction. Not a great experience. I would push people towards Tavistock for better quality and atmosphere.

Food was average. Chicken was quite tough. It felt like going back in time inside. Nice staff/owners from what we saw.

Can't comment on the pub itself aside from the fact that when we arrived for a drink we were told that they were closed for a function. Decided to grab a coffee from the adjoining "shop" and sit in the outside shed/beer garden

Went to.the Tamar Valley Dairy Co. Milkshake machine. Very clean easy to use the machine. Plus tastes lovely.

Today I had what was probably the best pub Sunday roast I've ever eaten. Toby carvery look and weep. Thank you to the hosts for a fantastic meal in comfortable surroundings. We will definitely be back.

Lovely food and staff always warm and friendly

Plenty of parking, all on one level, Chris will help you if you need help, all produce is local, you can pay by cash or card

Went for the milkstation and loved the bubblegum flavour. Will definitely be back again

Possibly the best Carvery we have had in years! Just like 'nan' cooked. Great value, great quality +++

Shhh. Don’t tell anyone but it’s probably the best Sunday Carvery in Devon.

Lovely country pub. Local people are very friendly and nice. The menu is very reasonable. Only half a mile from woodovis caravan site. Bottled milkshake machine also on the car park. Great place

Can't rate for staying/eating as only visited the shop. Fresh milk shed recently relocated here for milkshakes (could do with a clean though)

I get my fresh milk from there carpark and use there farm shop

New to the Area So Trying all The Local Pubs . Went in to the Copper penny Inn It Took a While to Get Severd That's is No Big Deal But The Big Deal Was Getting Charged £3.90p For a Soda Water & Lime That Was a Real Shock Because The Pub I Just Left in Tavistock The Same Drink Cost £1.30 p ! & Was Much More Refreshing So My First Time Will Be My Last Time At The Copper Penny Inn 👎

Arranged skittles evening for 28 last night. Landlord & Landlady were away so stand in host & hostess were excellent & pulled all the stops out to give us a good night. Food excellent very tasty & hot. Thanks Carlton, Alison & Sarah. X

Friendly pub with good grub and dog friendly.

Great service very friendly food was very good 👍🏻

Really friendly pub and the best Sunday carvery.

Played skittles with the Rotary club. Fun evening. Food was good, (I had scampi and chips) and close to 30 meals all delivered close together and hot. Bar service was a bit slow as only one person serving but they probably don't usually have such a big group.

Nice food friendly lady but not very clean in side also toilets not clean

The food was excellent ,very interesting historical information about the Inn's name and the surrounding area Well worth a visit.

Gave it a shot and wow what a disappointment.Ordered for five and not good, sticky table, re heated chips and all in all terrible food. Owners where luvly but don't eat here as not worth the money.

Really sorry to leave a low review.. popped in here a couple weeks ago to find out the menu was limited to chips/scampi/kids food due to the manager having to isolate after being abroad (this meant the chef couldn’t come in??). The main pub floor was filthy, needing a good hoover, also the toilets were dirtier than public loos. On the plus side the girl behind the bar was really nice and polite.

Well run. Great, helpful bar girl.great food. Useful outside area.

Sunday roast was ok although expensive for what it was

Our first visit wish we had found it before. Very good.

Had a take away roast carvery today and it was very nice, take your own bowls and fill up ☺️

Sunday dinner like it should be

Best food, locally sourced. Sincere and friendly staff. Unpretentious and excellent.

Lovely traditional pub/restaurant. Food and drink was great with excellent choice, staff were friendly and it was a very clean/safe environment. We dined early, hence empty bar 😁

Not sure what the pub is like, but the farm shop next door is excellent.

Lovely staff esp the young farmer bless her having to listen to my crazy daughter

Hard working family run pub, great beer, great Sunday carvery, basic, well done stuff... If you want fine dining go elsewhere, if you want a decent Sunday dinner come here. Great service too!

If I could give this pub 4.4 stars I would. I can’t so it’s a 4 star review from me. Good pub Good people Good prices Average parking

wothin walking diatance of the park a quaint little pub that served traditionalcooked food. And served a nice pint. Could do with a little updating but we enjoyed it.

Sadly we had a very bad experience at this pub. We had booked a table for 7:30, arrived and bought a drink, food had to be ordered from a waitress. (this took sometime), finally ordered about 7:50. Waited, and waited for our food. Was told it was coming, but still no sign. at 8:45, finally asked how long our food would be, to be told they hadn't even started cooking it! Told them to forget it!! VERY disappointed.

We visited here last night and were very disappointed. Ordered a jail ale and vodka and coke. The jail ale was poured and were told we would have to wait for other drink as the gas needed changing. No Biggie but 40 minutes later still...

Quiet , but lunch was good and young man bar attendant very sociable . The fruit and veg next door Hill Farm excellent . Fruit and veg super fresh . Have had meat from them that they deliver. So appreciative . Thank you

hi i have been to the copper penny LOTS of times it is the best if u want carvery its every Sunday starts at 12pm

Had a Carvery Sunday roast recently, delicious local venison. Lovely country pub, staff friendly and welcoming. Well worth a visit.

Fine pint of Jail Ale and a friendly welcome in this proper country pub.

Very friendly, lovely atmosphere. Delicious home cooked food Would thoroughly recommend.

Top pub roast ! Meats were amazing. Veg ,fresh and delicious 🤤. Only grip would be seating is a little close. Find a table and eat in the bar at 1. Defo recommend

This is probably the best Sunday lunch you will find. You can choose a small, medium or large carvery. We went for medium which was generously sliced from a choice of three meats. Everything was local produce and cooked to perfection. A good selection of...

Great pub, nice people and very dog friendly. Top Sunday carvery cooked to perfection and particularly enjoyed the cauliflower cheese. Small area for us smokers outside or at a few tables by the car park

Tastefully traditionally decorated pub Had a great meal, atmosphere was buzzing jale ale was superb a must visit if you in the area well done team

What a lovely pub , the owners are so friendly , very welcoming . Dropped the cake off on the way the camp down the road , ready for our evening birthday meal . The food was excellent , all had different meals and all...

Sweet beer garden and a lovely little farm shop

Having visited this pub on or around half a dozen times, we have never been disappointed. In fact, we would say that the Sunday Carvery is the best around. I particularly like the roast lamb but whatever meats (and there is usually a choice of...

Good food, we had a rump steak and hunters chicken.

Nice big portions of food! Friendly staff and good atmosphere.

Ein absolut nettes, kleines und gemütliches Pup mit sehr gutem Essen. Sehr freundliche Bedienung. Man kann, wenn man möchte, sehr schnell mit den Einheimischen ins Gespräch kommen. Es ist quasi ein Wohnzimmer der Dorfbewohner. Immer wieder gerne!

Visited here for a Sunday lunch and had a lovely Sunday carvery the staff was very friendly and service was good, will return here again.

The best ham egg & chips I’ve had in a long time! Proper home made chips too. The other half had the curry from the specials board and loved it and the kids were happy with their meals too. The pub is dog friendly and...

We so wanted to like this place as it was the only pub in the vicinity to the campsite where we were staying and if we like somewhere we generally eat there a couple of times on a holiday. However, the experience was very underwhelming....

It is not a modern pub and not an old world pub. Needs a bit of refurbishment to give it character in line with the regions history. Friendly lady owner but I am not sure if the £10 minimum transaction for contactless was needed. However nice beer and dog friendly which helps.

Very nice and a great chef in the back

A great place, great food, local to where we stayed. Lovely and friendly staff. Totally recommend.

Very welcoming and dog friendly with a convenient little farm shop next door. Good choice of beers and ciders.

Proper old country pub. Very friendly with the benefit of a farm shop next door.

Visited on foot while staying locally,Great choice of real ales and traditional pub grub , Locals and landlord/lady very friendly and more than willing to help you out with where to go and what to do etc , Ale kept to perfection and our food...

Excellent Carvery really dog friendly well worth a visit

“Woof woof woof!” Translated: I took my humans to the Copper Penny Inn for a drink today and they seemed to enjoy it. Sadly it was hailing quite heavily so we couldn’t go outside but it looked like there was outside seating for better weather....

We walked into this pub at the end of a 2 hour journey and immediately felt comfortable, it had just opened for the evening and there were a couple of very chatty locals in there. The conversation was dominated by sheep farming and it was...

Sunday carvery at the copper penny again . All fresh veg and meat. Great service and lovely staff.Definitely worth the visit.

Very friendly,great home cooked food. Will be going back.

Run by a husband and wife team. Great food, great atmosphere, village pub, ensure you book for Sunday carvery. We thoroughly enjoyed our evenings there and looking forward to visiting this year. Locally sourced food, including venison. Accommodation also available.

Lovely place, nice fresh food, served till late.

We had Sunday lunch today it was brilliant.great staff. Will definitely be returning.

Having been here several times it’s not once disappointed us. Dog friendly and always so welcoming! The meat is from their own farm and is so tasty. Highly recommend.

Lovely little find, so quaint and full Of character and characters LOL. Had the Sunday carvery,which is large portions of meat and a lovely selection of fresh veg. Was really good, great value for money, local ale too so happy husband. We will be going back again soon.

What a night for my mum birthday and there 40th wedding anniversary great staff at the bar food was also amazing thank you again

Our new favourite place for a roast! They have different portion sizes so will suit everyone's appetite. Small outside eating area for when the sun's shining! Only downside in my opinion is there isn't much room in the eating area.. it can be quite cramped when it's busy.

Proper home cooked food, made on the premises. The best burger I have ever tasted, not fatty or, greasy, just full.of flavour. Lovely atmosphere, just like a pub should be, we will be back.

We were staying at the Woodovis touring park about a 20 minute walk away, decided to pop up for some dinner and drinks - the food was great, better than we anticipated and served in a decent time too. Not the vastest drinks selection but enough for most tastes and a quaint little place, would recommend if you’re in the area :)

Great locals pub with good fresh home cooked food.

Stopped in for a drink as we were staying at the old rectory just up the road. Not a fancy pub but friendly staff and a nice cold beer. Didn't eat but food looked good. The restaurant filled up as we were there. They don't really make pubs like this anymore.

We were camping nearby and decided to have a night off of the Calor gas cuisine.Arrived just before 6 and were greeted by a very friendly young lady who provide us with pints of the local beer.We were directed through to the restaurant area where our order was taken by the same friendly young lady. When the food arrived, the Timbale of Prawns with Chorizo had morphed itself into Prawn Tempura with a Sweet Chilli Dipping sauce. The medium rare steak, well let’s just say a good vet could have got it up and running, it was blue. The two Lasagnes with garlic bread had last their garlic bread and found some chips. When it came to desserts at least two of the options were unavailable. It may just have been coincidence that both options involved Mango!?The food was perfectly okay, summing it up I would say we’d been taken back to the 1990s, the food was of that calibre.Would I eat there again? Yes, but the place and the menu needs a serious update.The beer was fabulous however

We were staying in the area and were recommended by the owner of the campsite we were staying in to try the pub for food and we were not disappointed. We arrived just as food orders opened and were the first there however within the space of 30 minutes the pub was packed. We ordered our food and when it arrived we were not disappointed. Large portion size and fresh local produce. If back In the area we would return.

Very nice. Next time we stay for a week-end

First class carvery very enjoyable.

Old fashioned pub. Come expecting that and you will not be disappointed. Rare to still find a true pub

Nice pint of cider and helpful staff.

Amazing food especially the Sunday carvery lovely staff really great atmosphere

A Pub with character and history, friendly and attentive bar staff and a very good chef. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal, along with a pint or two of the good local Jail Ale. Near to the Old Rectory Campsite, only about 1 mile away. Definitely recommended.

Lovely food and very pleasant service... 😀

We had an excellent meal in this cosy traditional pub. The locals and staff were friendly with great choice of menu at really reasonable prices. The venison fillet was delicious.

We went to the CP this week while on holiday, the staff lady was very friendly however the food was poor..lasagne was charred and garlic bread didn’t ever appear, steak pie was burnt and dry all in all very disappointing as we had visited a few years previously and enjoyed our meal. We wouldn’t go back sorry.

Homemade chips AND wheelchair accessible - what more could you want!

The place is in dire need of a refurbishment inside. Soulless. There's only so far you can stretch the character. Food is disappointing.

We had a Sunday roast carvery at The Copper Penny Inn a few weeks ago, outstanding! The portions are great, the quality of food was excellent, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be going back for more!
