Popped in for lunch . Although the staff were really polite and friendly, I was not impressed with my meal at all , had the steak and ale pie . But no chunks of meat could be found. Just very tiny bits of meat . More like soup with pastry on top. It was meant to be home made. Taste was limited. Veg was rock hard and inedible. Not for me I’m afraid.

Not planned to have dinner here, but wow so worth stopping. Probably the best fish (battered in Tribute Ale) and chips (handcrafted) I have ever had. Chose not to have peas, instead a beautiful summer salad and the most creamiest coleslaw. A fresh,home made taste. Definitely worth a stop for a pint of Guinness.

Very good food that arrived quickly and was piping hot, friendly staff and fair prices. I personally reccomend the steak and ale pie with chips which was thoroughly delicious. My wifr had Scampi and chips, whih was also very good. I think the chips deserve a mention... They are... VERY good ! My only reason for not giving 5 stars for atmosphere is the live sport on the TV in the dining area... No one was watching it, it just feels a little intrusive, but if you like sport, then hey... I'm not your judge eh ? We will certainly be back again.

Writing this as I'm having a half pint Tribute to wash lunch down. Unfortunately I am driving so a second pint out of the question for me. What a good pint, well kept and obviously clean glasses looking at the "lacing" a really nice sandwich and superb chips. Many thanks, we are back to Looe now then home to Dartmouth on Friday. However rest assured if passing this way we will be coming in.

Exceptionally good service, food and overall experience. This is a family run business and deserves patronising. Our group of four all had different dishes and all four were exceptionally good. The Chicken New Yorker that I had was really good. The place was busy with really friendly ambience and atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Great little village pub. Seems to cater to locals mostly as you'd expect. The women's world cup final was on so it was packed with no where to sit except outside on the smokers bench. That's fine, or was in a nice shady place so we ate in comfort. We had cheeseburger and chips alongside ham egg and chips. The cheeseburger was really nice and the chips were like canoes which was fun. We only had OJ & lemonade and a cola so can't comment on the beers, but there were a number of pumps in use serving local as well as global brands. Def recommend.

We only discovered this pub in 2022 living locally and now it’s become a firm favourite for family get togethers and meals. It’s good pub food at fantastic prices and there is something on the menu for everyone in our group including 6-70 year olds and vegetarian options. It’s not fancy food but it’s fresh, cooked and presented well. I highly recommend the Chicken New Yorker and the chips are amazing.

We booked here as a group of 9 during half term . We had few issues with finding their current menu online , as we have a vegetarian in our group, and needed to see what was avaliable for her. The food was great, good sized portions and all brought out quickly together. Very reasonably priced and the menu catered well for our mixed group aged 11 up to 80. Friendly helpful team and chatty locals. Great little pub that we will definately visit again .

One word describes the food here - AWFUL. Only go here if you are happy to have your main meal 2 hours after the booking time. Manager was arrogant in the extreme, under staffed. Trades descriptions act could be levied at the "King Prawn Marinara Tagliatelle" - NO king prawns in sight (small supermarket ones) and since when were chillies a part of this dish!. The "fresh egg pasta" might have been fresh (but NOT homemade) an hour before serving but had been left waiting so long it was dried out. Would give 0 stars if possible.

Lovely atmosphere and was nice to see a pub with the traditional pub decor and vibe. Between 4 of us we had 2x burgers, fish & chips and hunters chicken. The chips were delicious and the meals were pretty good portions other than my hunters chicken - the plate looked a little bare when it came out and could have done with a little salad on the side. Certainly wouldn’t stop us returning again.

Happened by this place and it's a gem! Parking to the rear is limited but not so crammed you cannot open the doors. The garden is as good as they could make it, and at the top few tables you get late evening sun (in August). The owner served us, a young bloke who was happy to accommodate some less easy requests for food, which was superb pub-grub. It was a meal that left your tummy groaning and food on the plate. Price was great for the food quality and fab service. Had they had an option on the card machine I would of tipped, but I rarely carry cash so they missed out. They had a quiz night going on which packed the place out, he also told me they have a band in the week too. A must visit! Don't go gastro-chain, do yourself a favour and go local - you will not regret it here. . .
