The East Dart Hotel in West Devon

Stayed here a couple of times now. Rooms great, food tasty and proper pints of Jail Ale. Karen really friendly too and a good cosy atmosphere 👍

The staff and atmosphere are lovely , inside was warm and cosy. However .. the prices are extortionate for food quality. £17 each for kids sausage chips and beans. £17 for sausage and mash , which was advertised as butchers sausages , garlic mash and red onion gravy but this is what was presented, plain instant mash and 4 small children’s sausages with plain gravy. All the other meals were fine but definitely over priced.

Excellent spot for lunch after a morning's walk. Good menu choices, competitively priced. Wide selection of beet and cider. Friendly owner, who has turned the place around, with a team of helpful staff.

Went to the East Dart inn for Sunday lunch and it was absolutely lovely , NEW CHEF ah my word dilicious !! Friendly staff good portions recommend choc brownies to

We arrived a bit late in this lovely pub, but the owner made us a delicious meal which we all loved. We felt so welcome and had a great time. The location is unique and quiet in the middle of Dartmoor. Absolutely worth a visit!

My wife and I stopped at the glorious East Dart Inn in Postbridge today for coffee and cake before setting off on a 6 mile circular walk on Dartmoor. We were warmly welcomed by Karen, the friendly owner, and much enjoyed our visit. The pub is beautifully decorated, welcoming to dogs and we very comfortable in the new armchairs. We eventually dragged ourselves away! After our strenuous walk we returned for a late lunch and were again warmly welcomed by Karen for whom nothing was too much trouble. Excellent choice of beers and ciders and tremendous food, exactly what was needed for hungry walkers - East Dart Chips aka ‘dirty chips’ are the best I have ever had anywhere. Karen can be justifiably proud of her pub, with her keen eye for detail, outstanding customer service and the beautifully furnished bedrooms. One of the many thoughtful touches is the basket of dog towels in the hallway for mucky paws! We will definitely return as we do more Dartmoor ‘tor-bagging’ walks in the area. If we lived closer this would definitely be my ‘local’ of choice.

The landlady Karen and team Couldn’t have been more welcoming and wonderful. Our boys were home for the week and were enjoying a family walk with the dogs and fancied a pint. The hospitality and pride in all she has done for the transformation of the pub and hotel is something special. We will return. A truly wonderful place to stop and enjoy a drink after a long walk.

Great lunch today with meeting up with friends, not expensive, cosy place, wood fire and great ale! Well done team 👏 👍

Really fantastic little pub, well worth a visit or even a detour especially for it. Fantastic food and even better service, couldn't recommend more and will for sure be making another visit.

Went for lunch before driving back home after a week on holiday in Cornwall. This is a lovely pub great location after walking with dogs we were all welcomed warmly! Superb food so well cooked and great choices for snacks and main meals too. Very enjoyable thanks to all.

We came in for lunch yesterday and were pleasantly surprised to be told we could have a table after seeing the car park full. We were met by the loveliest smile from Nicky who sat us down and was so good with my labradors and children. You could see the pub was very busy but she was working alone, for our whole 3 hour visit she did not stop but greeted everyone with a smile, we have been in a lot of pubs and I have never seen someone so organised, methodical yet attentive and welcoming. Our food was cooked to perfection and was served in a timely manner with Nicky allowing us to enjoy some before checking it was all okay in between welcoming in new customers. It is so hard to find a pub these days where the staff have a passion for what they do and Nicky has that in abundance as I’m sure would be the case if we were served by anyeone else. A lovely hidden gem with beautiful walking locally and a very satisfying meal. What more could you need! Well done Team

I don’t usually post negative comments but this one got to me. Had to pre-order food which then didn’t arrive until an hour after it was booked. Very disappointing small portions for the money.

We enjoyed a warm welcome, delightful surroundings and fabulous steak dinner. Fantastic location in the heart of Dartmoor - would highly recommend!

Fabulous food and super friendly staff. We also viewed the newly refurbished rooms upstairs and they look fabulous 👌. Will definitely recommend.

Lovely food, helpful car park, impressive baby changing facilities. Would recommend and will definitely visit again

The rooms have been recently refurbished and are very nicely done, the ensuite is a little on the small side but perfectly adequate. The staff are welcoming and show you to your room. Hotel is located in a very scenic area, little traffic on the main road after 6pm and several options to sit outside (garden area/paved area.) All in all a very nice stay.

Exceptional Sunday food. Pork belly special was amazing.

Very nice. Pictures are worth a thousand words. Excellent service. Thank you!

The food here os excptional. Highly recommended. But... well meaning service is poor (I don't mind this, but others will). And... As someone who tried the pub for the first time, I was annoyed to notice that staff and regulars were given significantly more meat than other guests which is a strange practice if you are seeking return business? In saying this the food was superb so I'll give it another go for sure. It would be good if owner / management could look into and resolve the above issues. And stop treating new customers as worthy of only half a portion (or reduce the size of portions given to staff and favourites if they eat in the same dining g area as other customers. Overall though, highly recommended if you like really well cooked food.

Staggered in off the moor after a brutal night camping out in the rain and hail. Served us a damn fine cup of coffee and delicious English breakfast that was literally lifesaving. Great to chat to the friendly owner/landlady too, good vibes all round.

Fab Inn. Found amazing and owner so accommodating and nothing too much trouble. Really worth a visit Breakfast is tasty and huge so don’t need lunch All staff are so helpful Cannot recommend more highly

Had a lovely lunch here, very dog friendly, great service, extremely friendly staff who made us feel very welcome. Food was quick and very nice. Will definitely be back.

Hunt supporting pub. I'd give zero stars if I could

Recently refurbished and all areas very clean and bar area much nicer now. Room comfortable, clean and nice hot shower. Room was cold on arrival as no heating on and owner’s comments about cost of heating wasn’t really necessary or appropriate. Had one meal in evening which wasn’t the best but understand there was no chef and hopefully this will soon change. Breakfast however was good, cooked by chap who served in bar. It was quiet and hopefully will pick up soon. Some music and heat in bar area would be good.

This was our first visit and we will definitely return. It is dog friendly and we spent a very pleasant lunch time with our friends. We had soup which was home made and tasty. The pub has recently been refurbished in a sympathetic and tastefully way. On a dry warm day it would be nice to sit out in the garden. The inn is well situated for walks on Dartmoor and an excellent place to stop after a walk on the moor. The hotel has also been refurbished, we live in Cornwall and the hotel is somewhere we will definitely consider staying at in the future if we would like to spend a day or 2 in the area

Motorbike got a puncture nearby, came in purely to ask if they had WiFi in order to use our breakdown service. The kind people in there immediately asked if they could offer any help, checked on the bike for me, gave us the WiFi info, poured me and my partner a free drink and put a log on the fire. We were even offered food and got some cuddles from the pub dog! I get people don't like the hunting aspect and hunting decor but they kept us warm and comfortable in our time of need. They couldn't have been more accommodating. Thank you guys. You turned a stressful situation into a pleasant experience.

Do not supprt this hotel or pub in any way if you disagree with illegal hunting. This hotel hosted the Two Bridges Hunt Club this year on 21st Feb 2024 after the Two Bridges Hotel decided they couldn't following the backlash that they've received. Disgusting and grim decision to support that club.

Went to go for lunch on Wednesday, drove past this place & noticed a lot of people on horseback hanging around outside. After speaking to a local, turns out this place was hosting a joint meet of 4 local fox hunts. Avoid this place like the plague.

After a lovely walk on Dartmoor we went to the East Dart for lunch and we were not disappointed. The lasagne was delicious and I had the Pork and Apple sausages. I had been told that they were excellent and they were! The Fruit Crumble was superb and really enough for two people. The staff were very professional and friendly and we will certainly be going back.

We didn't use the hotel just the Pub. A damp winters day and it was open, warm and welcoming, with a lovely wood burner. We had Fish and Chips x2 and scampi and chips, all excellent, the batter was fab, light and crispy. If we are in the area again we will be back

Had a very nice lunch. It was fairly quiet and we had a bit of a wait but it was okay as it was nice to relax after Xmas Shopping in Tavistock and we played solitaire whilst waiting. The food was really good, and we felt good value. Will definitely return if passing.

After a long walk in equal amounts of sunshine and heavy rain they were very welcoming. Super impressed with the towels available in the porch to clean your pooch before entry to the main premises. A lovely touch as didn't want to leave pooch in the hot car. They supplied dog water bowls and dog biscuits, so very dog friendly. They also pour a good pint. Would highly recommend a visit.

Stopped for food after a trek. Great beer and even though restaurant was closed rustled up some decent grub.

Used the pub as a halfway stop while walking on Dartmoor. The staff were very friendly and the food excellent. It was a really hot day and the ice cold drinks a welcome relief from the heat.

Rolled in to the hotel after a hot hike down from Yes Tor and made the great decision to stay here. The single room was very tastefully finished, clean and comfortable, plus nice and cool due to the thick stone walls. Had a pizza from the outside oven for dinner, freshly made and very tasty, also recommend the Jail Ale! Can't praise the staff enough for their hospitality, top notch. Plus the location is great, some lovely walks in the area and the stunning clapper bridge and river is just a minutes walk from the hotel.

Great place to rest & relax after a long day's walk across the Moor.

Disappointing visit. Popped in for some lunch, unfortunately it took a hour for a jacket potato and a pizza to arrive " at different times! By 10 minutes. Food was OK but over priced for what you get

We had a drink and cream tea here. To be totally honest. I think they've tried too hard to modernise and old pub. It's much better being an old pub. Staff were lovely.

Went for beer and food. Beer was great. The "wood fired pizza" was a disappointment.

Had a lunchtime meal with a friend before heading out for a hike and wild camp across the moor. I had the burger and my mate had the steak, both washed down with some perfectly kept Jail ale. Both of us had a great meal, really nice in fact and we left quite content as we headed out into the wilderness. Two days later I returned again with my family for Sunday lunch and had another great experience. Staff seemed to be up against it a bit today but the food was spot on and the beer again did not disappoint. The offering is good quality, good value and honest pub food, at a cracking location. Roast beef was beautiful and my wife really rated the pizza. Will return for sure, thank you.

We visited this pub a couple of years ago before it changed ownership and, as we were in the area, we thought we’d see how it had changed. On walking in, all looked very positive - the decor had been refreshed, the layout altered and it was very inviting. Unfortunately our experience with the food was not so good. We were the only people in the bar when we arrived and we ordered baguettes and some chips to share. The food took almost 40 minutes to be served and was very poor value for money - a couple of rashers of bacon and a tiny piece of chicken on each baguette which cost £8.95 each (the chips were extra). Sadly we won’t be returning!

We parked on the verge opposite the pub at 10 am in the morning to have a walk around the village. The landlord was outside and asked us if we were planning to visit the pub (it wasn't open!) and at the time we hadn't thought about it so we were honest and said no. He then told us that he owned the land we were parked on, and if we didn't move he would clamp the car. We said there were no signs to say it was his land, to which he replied they were being made but not ready yet. My husband said as there were no signs he couldn't clamp the car, but he was adamant that he would and said us tourists thought we had a right to park wherever we wanted. We weren't blocking anything, there was lots of space and there was a car park right next to the pub. I decided to leave as I was on holiday and didn't want to have to worry about the car while I tried to enjoy a walk around the village. We may well have decided to have a drink after we'd finished our walk, but he certainly put paid to that. The landlord obviously has a very low opinion of potential customers.

Waited nearly an hour for the food, one order completely forgotten but was offered a free substitute, three items on the menu were not available, one member of the party was unhappy with her food and her complaint was not handled well, and the subsequent discussion ended with our party being told that we would not be welcome again

we ordered fish n chips- wow such a wonderful meal, chips like I hae never tasted before, cod cook perfeectly and the batter...oh wonderful batter so light and airy and not dripping with grease. Service was quick, waiters friendly and fair price too. there are options to eat in the garden to eat inside and outsideon the decking.

Absolutely outstanding food! A group of five of us were working up the road and this was the nearest option which is why we chose it but it was absolutely superb. Generous portions of extremely well cooked food and some excellent beer too. Lovely service as well. Would definitely go back.

Stayed here for one night booked online and told the room was not ready on our arrival . We had been travelling alday so hungry and tierd , not their fault and both thd the landlord and landlady came and opologised and we were offered a free drink . A warm and cosy feel to the place and all the staff very friendly and welcoming . We had the pizza which was one of the best ive ever eaten . The room had evdrything that we needed and the bed was comfy , best night sleep ive had in a while . A beautifull setting and well worth a visit .

New staff/owners trying hard to please but always “getting it right first time” Dog friendly, decent food and beer. Could be a little cleaner

Ordered a few pints/soft drinks and some chips for the kids. Had to remind landlord the chips hadn’t arrived and eventually they came 45 mins later. These things happen. But, the potion size was tiny, and when we enquired about this and the late arrival, the landlord was rude and arrogant with ZERO sense of decent customer service. We live locally, but will not be visiting again.

Beautiful pub in heart of Dartmoor. Amazing beer garden for peace and quiet pint.

Lovely hosts, decent beer, great breakfast. I arrived with my bike and was offered secure storage and help with my bags. Go for a walk over to Clapper Bridge and along the bridleways, lovely area.

Biker friendly...lovely setting..great beer and service 5star...

Highly recommend. Now under new ownership and was excellent service and very welcoming. We hope to go there again soon and spend longer there.

Lovely pub. Visited last weekend with 2 friends after being " stranded" without somewhere to pitch our tent. We enjoyed a lovely meal with a few ciders and ended up staying over. The staff and owners couldnt do enough for us. Thank You.

The owners are so Welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. Food was excellent, Lovely bedroom, bed so comfortable didn't want to get up. Thank you both so much for letting us have an early breakfast it was so good of you. Will be back, and have recommended you to all our friends.

So sad to hear the old owners have left. We live in Exeter and visited the pub a couple of times last year and I must say found it fantastic. The food was amazing and the hosts very welcoming. I do hope they open another pub somewhere close.

I stopped here a while ago, and it was an awful experience! The landlord was abusive to staff, rude to customers, and was just not the right person to be in hospitality. As for his wife…. Rude, obnoxious, and also totally lacking in customer service skills, a point that is apparent for all to still see if you read her responses to some of the online comments. People are honest, they’re just rude! Thankfully however, after much coercing, I went back in to the new East Dart Inn last night, and what a transformation! It’s been cleaned for starters, the drinks are fresh, and the staff are absolutely lovely! Such a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with the fire on, smiles from behind the bar, and just all round lovely people. The new owners are amazing, and so obviously committed to bringing life back to the place. I hear they’ve only been open a few weeks, but definitely well worth a visit now! Good luck to them, and we’ll all be back

As I suffer from COPD we were a bit wary of booking a break to mark our 54th.wedding anniversary in view of the covid pandemic and the numerous selfish people who simply refuse to follow any government guidelines as it doesn't suit them and damn anyone else.. We have stayed at the East Dart before and thoroughly enjoyed our time there so we decided the somewhat remote location would be a much safer bet for us. We were not disappointed as all patrons were required to observe covid rules which was very reassuring indeed. In spite of staff shortage, which seems to be hitting so many areas at present, the service remained excellent, the food was as great as ever and we hated having to leave when our short holiday came to an end. Well done Paul and Rosie, there are establishments that could learn a thing or two from you on how to run a hotel/pub business where even vulnerable clients can relax without worrying.

Very welcoming and regular check if all is OK. Room is small but comfortable ( is an old building ) and food is great very good value for dinner and breakfast.

A life saver when looking for proper job food on the moor!

Lovely location, clean comfortable rooms, good evening meals (before 7:15) would have stayed longer if we'd known how fab it was.

Not the best food I’ve ever had, even the dog wouldn’t eat it .

Not accommodating to would be diners. Smells of dampdog!

Hosts Paul & Rosie excellent good food comfy bed and clean, family and Jasmine couldn't do enough. Our 1st visit but will return

Very nice family run it been before and booked for the future would recommend it

Absolutely appalling ! I used to visit here a lot when lived close. Was good in 1980s. Now , just don't go. ! Rude aggressive owners/staff. .no atmosphere.! Bar been cleared. Better off going to a cattle shed. ! Just don't bother stopping. Go Warren. Or two bridges instead. For better experience.

Lovely spot nice food friendly people.

We were booked in for 1 ngt, when we booked the hotel was almost full - we had the last 2 rooms - single rooms abs brought the dog with us We booked over the phone the gentleman was really helpful, felt positive about the booking. Arrived about 4pm such a beautiful location and oub, a real country feel. We were allocated room 5 (dog friendly ) and room 3 - I had the room 5 - had a double bed I. There, both rooms en-suite with showers. Good amount fo tea, coffee, sugar and milk pots. Room was spotlessly clean and the bathroom, the bathroom was very roomy. Food was served till 730 - we were just after 730 - they said they’d keep the kitchen open for us Ham egg and chips, my daughter lasagne and chips, 2 pints of cider £28. Slept like a log, so comfy, and within 5 mins of my getting into bed - there was snoring from the floor! He settled very well. Breakfast was 830/930, as we had the dog we had breakfast in the main bar area. Juice, cereal, full English, toast, tea or coffee. Wide selection was available we were asked if we wanted more tea / coffee / toast. Both full with what we had. Everyone was so friendly. A real family affair, I felt like we had arrived as strangers and left as friends We’re staying in the area - will def be popping back on for a drink or 2. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Stopped for a drink and something to eat. I Had a prawn sandwich and fries. Landlady not particularly friendly and was flustered. Sat outside, when sandwich arrived I noticed a spot of mould on each half, confirmed by the 3 other people with me, one of whom is a chef. When I took it back the landlady tried telling me "it was salad", She had it changed straight away, and I know the difference between mould and salad. The rest of my party had baguettes, which were not even buttered, so nobody was impressed. Would not visit again, but the area is fantastic as always.

No food, no coffee, no smile. The barman just couldn't be bothered. Worst pub ever.

Polite service, real ale, plenty of outside tables.

I stopped for lunch whilst on a motorbike ride out. The staff were very friendly and they were very helpful. Food was OK, although the Goujons (aka nuggets) could probably have been cooked a little more. It was very pleasant sat outside in the warm on the new outside patio and I’d definitely stop by again.

855290 We stayed along the road from the pub but enjoyed the hospitality of Rosie and Paul from the first time we walked into their establishment. They made us feel welcome and we would highly recommend their food and lovely traditional country pub. Covid rules were adhered to and we felt safe there. Nothing was too much trouble.

Lovely coffee even though they were closed.

Have been coming for over ten years for business and pleasure once again not disappointed the room was great and the food outstanding. Highly recommend paying the a visit.

Excellent place to stay. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Good accommodation, with en suit for all rooms.  Much better than I expected for the price & including a full English breakfast or parts there of. Plus, cereal, toast, tea & coffee. Produce for breakfast & evening meals are sourced locally & are very good quality. Delicious food, day or night. Food was that nice I scrapped my plan to eat around & ate in for my 4 night stay. Was a very good decision. My only regret is that I did not get to do the whole menu. You simply must try the puddings, if there's room ? Large sun trap of a beer garden laid to lawn,  at the side with benches & sun umbrellas. One step from memory up to rear beer garden from the bar,  level outside with bench tables, also tables. & chairs. Real ale on tap,. Try the "Jail". The owners were so welcoming, friendly & helpful. They made my stay relaxing & very pleasurable to match the joy of the moors. Early PS. They are looking for staff good pay, accommodation. Got that info from chatting to them. Call or email. An excellent starting point. Being central it is a lovely drive in each direction (on the only road, simple choice, left or right out of the car park) to any of the attractions. I am disabled. I use crutches & leccy scoot. All bedrooms are on the first floor,  ok for those on crutches that can manage one flight of stairs. Level ground all around outside leading to level entrance. Indoors , all of the ground floor is level, no steps. Up one flight of stairs to first floor. Once there as with the ground floor no steps, all level. Level access to lawn beer garden from car park. One step from bar to quaint rear beer garden I had a nose in the other rooms as they emptied. All en suit. Showers in all the rooms are the same standard shower cubicle size.  All en suits are the same generous size. Comparable in size to a very good sized disabled  mother & baby toilet found in large pubs (no mother & baby facilities on premises or in en suits). There is an  en suit room  with shower over bathtub. Ask for a shower seat, they have one given to them by a disabled guest for other disabled guest to use. There are good folk in the world Everything is normal person height. Mirrors,  seats ,toilets etc,  throughout the property. No disabled toilet on premises. Toilets in the bar are as good as any if you use crutches/walking stick. Ask for help as they are most accommodating. Would I visit again is the question. To right I would. Already looking for next availability. Most importantly, would I reccomend. "A resounding YES". Oh & watch out for sheep asleep or grazing ??  in the middle of the road!!. As are cows & ponies. All running wild & free. You think I'm kidding. Took me Pleasantly by surprise. They are better road trained than humans.  Exercise caution when driving as you can never tell what animals will do, or when they will appear. Have a coffee. Relax, enjoy & have fun all while soaking up the sun. Happy holidays!!

Rosie & Paul run this hotel impeccably. Their attention to detail is second to none, nothing is too much trouble. My room was spotlessly clean & comfy with a good en-suite power shower. The food was very good indeed, a lovely full English Breakfast included. I also worked my way through the dinner menu sampling Beef & Ale Pie, Lamb Steaks with a Red Wine Jus, Fish & Chips, Mushroom Stroganoff & Lasagne! All so tasty! I travelled here alone & found it a great place to meet people. I always had my own table but could easily chat with other like minded travellers. I have travelled the world & this is my kind of place. It is not 5 Star, nor does it pretend to be, however it is the best place that i have stayed in the UK for a long, long time. It is a fabulous place to stay especially in the current climate!

There's not much that I dislike in life- but this pub is definitely one of them. Dark, gloomy and very 'tired. Rude staff - manager that rolled her eyes at me for no reason and chips that tasted like they had been cooked in 'old' fat. It is clearly a popular pub by no other merit than that it is the only one near the Postbridge. In future, I'll eat elsewhere before getting to Postbridge and I recommend anyone reading this does the same.

Friendly staff the food was pretty good but cod & chips not as good as expected plus too pricey compared to most places

We came off a long moor walk and asked if there was any chance we could have a large lunch, and they kindly said yes! We had an amazing burger and probably the best fish and chips I could remember having, and they've never been more welcome. All washed down with some Jail Ale. We'll definitely be back for some more great pub food by the fire this winter thank you!

Clean and comfortable room at a hotel in a perfect location for exploring Dartmoor. The staff were really friendly and the full English breakfast was very tasty. I'd definitely stay again!

Lovely quiet hotel with experienced, welcoming and helpful hosts. The room was excellent and very clean with everything you needed. Lots of hot water in the shower and warm radiators. Great breakfast.

What a lovely suprise! An old pub/hotel around 1862, sat alongside the Dartmoor road in Postbridge Whilst the decor was slightly dated and of course tables etc moved around to accommodate the covid situation, the hosts were the most polite, professional and friendly I have ever come across!. The food was delicious and cooked super fresh. My single room was little and decor slightly older than expected but it was very clean with lovely fresh bed sheets and had everything I could need. I tend to move around to different places but given the great service I'm sure I will revisit one day. Thank you East Dart hotel.

Stayed here with my family a couple of weeks ago for 1 night. Rooms are basic and clean And a good standard however we found the hospitality a little sterile. With covid-19 we opted to eat dinner outside, yet service did not come with a smile and when I asked if I could have my teapot refilled I was asked to ‘can you go to the bar yourself as I am busy’. Maybe because we were only staying one night, the staff did not make as much effort with us as with other guests. I understand that the lady running the hotel is busy, however she made us feel like we were being a lot of effort when serving us breakfast.. As other guests came down for breakfast asking how she was she would reply with things such as ‘really busy’, ‘got to do this then the laundry back at home later’ etc. Which is very honest but did make us feel like she was unhappy serving us. Overall we had a lovely time in Dartmoor and were only staying here 1 night so it wasn’t a big issue for us, however we will probably book somewhere else if we return.

The worst dining experience in a long time. It took 45 minutes to receive our food. The employees were rude and shouted at me when I inquired where our food is. When the burger (which cost more than £10) arrived it turned out to be two small and overcooked slices of burger meat in a jabata. The burger you get in your average supermarket is of a better quality. By the time we had our plates an army of tiny flies descended on the garden and eating was impossible. What a waste of time and money. AVOID.

I would not recommend this pub to a friend. The food selection is uninspiring (chips and..), the beer garden at the back is a tip and I did not find the staff to be particularly friendly. I also do not believe they are following good COVID-19 guidelines by making everyone write their details in the book using the same pen (whether they've used hand sanitiser or not is beside the point). I feel like most people come here just because of where it is when there are much better options not too far away.

We had some good food after a long walk. The staff were helpful and covid safe etc. There is also a beer garden and good drinks.

Warm and friendly welcome with good a Covid-19 system in place. Great food and a good night's sleep.👍

(Traducido por Google) Gran lugar para comer y beber, los propietarios Paul y Rosie muy amable, encantador ambiente hogareño, muy recomendable. (Original) Great place to eat and drink, owners Paul and Rosie very friendly, lovely homely atmosphere, highly recommended.

Great local inn . Good beer and lovely local food . 👍👍

Stayed here for one night and cannot recommend this place highly enough, amazing food great accommodation and the owners were by far the nicest people I've ever met. Food times are limited but if your within the times 6-8pm for dinner and 8:30-9:30am for breakfast your on to a winner and won't be disappointed. As an adddd bonus the famous two bridges are just seconds away perfect!

Stopped off here on a dreadful wet and windy day. Received a very warm welcome from very obliging staff

Great place with friendly staff, The steak is amazing.

Originally I had booked accommodation for myself and horse for three nights, but when the opportunity to escape away a couple of nights earlier I jumped at it. We were welcomed warmly, shown to Mags' stable and to my room and explained the way the East Dart worked. My room was more than adequate, huge fluffy towels, comfy bed, nice hospitality tray. Lovely and warm overnight and I feel the cold!I knew that Postbridge is a bit of a trap for bad internet and mobile coverage so had packed a book or two to read on those bad weather days when horse riding is no fun. WiFi connection is a bit patchy, but I was expecting this before I arrived- strangely nice not having full access to technology.Rosie and Paul were fab throughout the whole stay checking in on how my experience was, and their children were a pleasure to meet too. The times that I met other members of staff (Julie, Glen, Jazz) I found them to be friendly and approachable, and invariably had a good sense of humour, so a thank you to all for giving me some human contact!I felt at ease as a solo traveller, and spent more time in the bar socialising than in my room of an evening. Breakfast was lush, and it was nice to see so much local meat and produce on the breakfast and pub menus. I thought that food and drink was priced well, and that the B&B was very reasonable too.Mags enjoyed her stay and rates the full five golden carrots too.

So..Where should I start..I had an "opportunity" to work and live in this hotel, for probably 2 and half months. We were been there with my girlfriend for summer job. My main reason why I wanted to go to the England, was that I thought all my childhood, that England is the most royal piece of land in this world. Well it's not exactly as I thought, (child dreams huh?) We went to the England through job agency, that asked not a little money from us to get there. But we went anyways. So we came on our own by our own flight tickets and by our own money to the Postbridge. When we step in to the East dart hotel for the first time, it had nice western like feel atmosphere. It is family hotel that is managed by two owners who are doing staff work there too. (Really, there is no staff at all). So we replaced first couple of foreigners, who worked there. This time.. it was longest 2 and half months in my entire life. First week our bosses were as honey. Living in the dream..not for long tho. They started to act ridiculous after some time, when we (trust me or not everybody does them) did a mistake. They was like crazy, started yelling on us and swearing. I was told that I acting like an idiot, because I ve been pushing too hard. But! When I didn't pushed hard enough, it was just wrong again! That was just first act of their insanity, my ex-boss started to immitate me in the meaning way that they had a fun of. Well, I don't think that is the attitude that your boss should have at all. Second part of this drama, was when my boss started to shorting my working hours, so I was payed less than I really worked! This continued next 2 months and we just been counting days to get home finally...Oh, and I forgot to mention that we wasn't the first couple of people that left from there because, how bosses been acting. Truth is, that I didn't wanted to write any review at all. But, few weeks ago our last payment came by post (still waiting for my promised NI number tho..) we was stunned about what we seen, our boss send us bill for washing a pizza plate for us..and that's not all, also bills for "screwed" meals that I prepared.... I think the fact that owners are working in their own hotel is ridiculous just by itself. But to not only be rude, as would they say...If I try to find something positive... it gave me (kind of) imagination which I needed for my career.

Thought about giving it 2 stars because food was ok but overall i couldn't. Two pints of Otter were taken back as it was about the most disgusting beer i have i ever had. They replaced them free of charge with Black Tor which was not particularly nice either. The Otter was replaced with Jail ale which was ok to be fair. We were there on a Saturday night. The landlord and landlady seemed more concerned with Strictly come Dancing (which was blaring across the pub from the TV) than anything else. Once they had our money, I think they just wanted us to leave tbh and we were more than happy to oblige. We couldn't wait to get out of there! A pub just totally devoid of atmosphere and i certainly won't be visiting again. Desperate place.

We were going to Widecombe Fair and wanted to stay nearby. This was a typical country pub with rooms which were ok for our two night stay but could perhaps do with some renovation. However, the welcome, food and general ambience were all great and meeting Shiraz (dog!) was an extra bonus. It is obviously very popular with visitors to Widecombe Fair as several of the people staying there had been before and were booking for next year.

Decided to pop in here after a wander around the moors instead of our usual stop at the Ploom in Princetown. Have driven past it a few times and this time though we would take the plunge. Was welcomed by a huge bear of a dog who was just lovely. Popped to the bar and was welcomed by the whom i assume was the land lady who was warming and pleasant. Sat down with a menu but had to order at the bar. Food arrived and whoa it was a healthy portion. We chose the pie and were glad we did. A proper hearty meaty pie! Traditional pub which could be mistaken as being a little tired but i like the homely feel it has, my type of place! Over all it was a nice visit, a different stop as we work our way through the pubs on the moor and will definitely be back!

Guter Ort im Dartmoor für Aufenthalt! Die Bedienung vergass zu fragen wegen Dessert bevor die Küche schloss. Leider gab es kein Dessert mehr. Rosie hat ansonsten alles im Griff!

Lot of room for improvement.Lack of pride by the owners ,they no longer love their business.It is a great shame as no competition near and walkers,campers ,local people could do with a decent pub serving good food. Please do not tell people who have had a main they cannot have a pudding as kitchen has shut.In these days of reviews online this ignorant attitude will have consequences.Either sell up or fall back in love with the place. On the positive side dog friendly and relaxed in general environment. Please improve or go.

Fabulous location for walking or cycling. Good beer selection. Good breakfasts and evening meals. All good value.
