The Grazing Cow in East Devon

Swift service and staff continuously wiping down tables.Breakfast top notch even though one half of my sausage was a bit underdone.Choice of bread and Tea was lovely. Also ,so good that people with dogs go in a separate room as recently we were eating our Sunday dinner at a pub in East Devon and a large greyhound type dog jumped up and dribbled over my friends plate. Superb experience and lovely staff.

A really excellent unexpected find on the way back from Cornwall. Pleasant service and really good food. The seating area for those with dogs is enclosed and very clean and tidy, even when accidents occur, the staff are completely unfazed and ensure the place is lovely and clean. We will stage our road-trips around The Grazing Cow whenever appropriate.

What a bacon and egg sandwich was excellent Service was ver good, very welcoming and Spotlessly clean.. Throughly recommend this place

Excellent restaurant. Good food. Great service. Brilliant lunch. We will be definitely returning soon. Thanks to all concerned.

Great place for us to stop on the way down to Cornwall, good food which arrived quickly and the order was 100% correct despite lots of extras and deletions. Our Canadian guest blew the waiters mind when he asked for jam to eat on his toast with the Eggs Benedict, but he brought it! 😀

Very nice food at a reasonable price! Portions were very large and the farm shop was well stocked! Plenty of parking, would recommend

I used to stop at this spot for breakfast as a child with my Mum&Dad on our way to Cornwall for my favourite family holidays…. The Cafe is really really good ,staff are very attentive and the breakfast was first class quality ingredients…

What a gem of a place. The food was so so delicious 😋 and the staff welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend 👌.........

What a great place to visit, Food fantastic, clean, interesting, and a very interesting Ploughmans and very delicious. Looking forward to going again in the near future. Very busy and all food looked great that was coming out of the kitchen.

Great stop off for lunch on our journey! Would definitely recommend for a food stop on A35. Great service, great food and very clean

Never got served they forgot us young lad never came back to take our order so we eventually left after seeing others who came in with us get food and orders taken

Wonderful farm shop with restaurant in an adjourning building. Friendly, efficient staff, welcoming atmosphere, varied menu including vegan options and all very yummy. Great Brunch start to the day. If I had one small piece of feedback, coffee wasn’t up to much for those like me used to a good freshly ground bean.

Having read the reviews and staying locally we thought we’d give this place a try. Environment was really nice with a rear garden room where you could also take your dog. It was pretty busy with a good ‘hum’. Staff were Friendly and helpful and the coffee was very good. The breakfast however was so disappointing. The food came very quickly and had clearly been sat under hot lights. The black pudding was dried out one side and hardly cooked the other. The fried eggs had gone rubbery. Sausage was not to our taste, beans were watery. And can’t fathom why you would have to pay an extra £1 to have scrambled eggs or £2 for poached!!? Overall I’m afraid we won’t be returning

This cafe is a must if you want good food, good staff and good service. We had the best sandwiches we have had for ages. Even though it was extremely busy (no surprise, looking at the food coming out) the staff were extremely proficient and friendly with it. Also lovely toilets 🚽

Absolutely the best full English breakfast in a sandwich I have had. Lively and clean place with attentive staff. Thanks guys!

I had a Thai duck curry off the specials board and it was truly amazing. Both times I have visited, I’ve had some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. This place is a gem. Thank you.

Really ace stop on the A35, good coffee, generous good quality bacon baps, airy space, very clean, friendly staff, spotless lavs with nice soap. Also a super little farm shop This is our new first stop after Exeter.

I have passed this place hudreds of times, and it looks nothing from the outside as you drive by on the A35. However after checking out where to have a decent breakfast near Hontion, on Trip Advisor I decided to stop and give it a go. Thank you so much. It was brilliant. The breakfast was incredible, at a very reasonable price. Decent coffee as well. The service was efficient and friendly, despite the servers seemingly working their socks off. I decided to change my order slightly after I had ordered and this was not a problem. My only suggestion is to make sure you book as it was packed out on a Sunday morning. We had not but they still accommodated us, but we were quite early.

15 of us turned up, having been turned down for Breakfast elsewhere, and nothing was too much trouble. We were found tables and from there on, were so well looked after. Service was superb as were the Breakfasts. I must say that the large was one if not the best have had for years. Lovely products and pipping hot. We will be back again. Thank you.

Wonderful food great friendly service. Fast and friendly good food.very hospitable gluten free available and staff very knowledgeable

Wow what a find! We have driven past the Grazing Cow for years thinking it was just a roadside cafe. But we were wrong, it’s fabulous! The breakfast was delicious and hot. The coffee was proper and again hot. The staff were friendly and professional. No table was left with dirty dishes, they were cleaned and relaid as soon as customers left. We will definitely be returning and recommending to all our holiday guests.

Wonderful experience! Very welcoming and warm atmosphere. Staff polite and smiling - nothing too much trouble. Food was plentiful , hot and tasty - even on warm plates - brilliant. We didn't feel rushed, pressured or an inconvenience. Really enjoyed the experience. Will definitely go again. Well done to all concerned.

We went there on Wednesday for our staff Christmas party . The food was amazing , plenty of it ! The staff were welcoming and very enthusiastic,looking after all our needs . Definitely recommend it

An absolutely amazing cafe - so so lucky to live so close to here as it’s our favourite spot for breakfast, lunch or cake! The food is delicious, generous portion sizes and such an amazing variety on the menu. I highly recommend the breakfasts and the iced coffees! The staff have always been so friendly and the atmosphere is great. An even bigger shoutout to all the incredible staff who allowed us to host our friends baby shower here recently, they reserved a table for us and were so accommodating going above and beyond the whole afternoon making us feel at ease. We really appreciate it, all of the staff are wonderful! Thank you Grazing Cow! We will definitely be back soon! 👋

Several of us from our swimming group went for lunch today 4/12/23. The food was amazing, service was fast and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.

We are super lucky to live very close to The Grazing Cow and visit regularly….. we’ve had breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and everything in between many, many times and have never had a bad experience. We even went for our work Christmas dinner last year and had a lovely time, The staff are always first class, the food is fsbulous, with an ever changing specials menu which is always imaginative, we always come away with a big smile on our faces! We can’t wait to see everyone again…… and I’m sure it won’t be long 🤩

I used to love visiting here, but it’s really changed the last few times I have visited, which is a shame. I thought after my last visit, I’d give them the benefit of the doubt, but unfortunately this visit was disappointing too. The previous visit, I found a hair in my food and the glass I was given was covered in dirty fibres. I wasn’t given even just an apology about either. I also don’t feel being gluten free is dealt with in the right way. Now to this visit, I bought my friend here (it was her first time visiting here,) she asked for a pot of tea, and just got a tea in a mug? Then our breakfasts came, which came and the items were incorrect. We started to tuck into our breakfast, where it was barely lukewarm, and the poached eggs were very vinegary. There was also a lack of flavour/seasoning on the rest of the breakfast. We bought the issues to their attention, and they took it back to the kitchen to do a fresh order. When it was bought back out, the same issues arose, but ate what we could at this point. We were not checked back in on at any point, which was disappointing, and then we were made to feel rushed off of our table when the bill was bought over without us asking for it. Not the experience we’d wanted or I’d had in the past unfortunately! I won’t be visiting for a long while, which is a shame.

I had driven past this place many times and always stopped at Starbucks down the road. Never again! The food is amazing and the service is quick. I have already recommended it to several of the family who drive past regularly.

Fabulous breakfasts and ham egg and chips. Really generous portions and good value for the price. Everything arrived hot and very quickly. Also great with gluten free requests (even understanding the importance of separate fryers). Staff were fabulous.

Have driven past a few times and noticed how popular it looked so decided to pay a visit. We knew dogs weren't allowed in the main building so sat outside, we were informed and directed around to their lovely garden room which is heated and dogs allowed. The service was first class and the breakfast as good as any I have ever had. Food was delivered very quickly but I wasn't made to feel rushed I will be returning

This was the best 'Full English" I have had in living memory. The service was friendly, efficient and amazingly fast. The coffee was steaming hot.

If you're after a proper good breakfast.....this is the place to stop!! This is the second time of being here and we can't fault the food or the staff, they're so polite and very concerned for my mum with her Gluten free requests! The butterscotch latte is a must

This is honestly the best breakfast I've ever had , place was really busy & service was quick & extremely friendly ... highly recommend

Absolutely lovely, staff were incredibly kind, facilities superb and food wonderful, a terrific experience had by us and our friends, one of whom is vegetarian, we met up here as they were travelling back from Cornwall and we were travelling down. Great choice and also very good experience as I am disabled, all catered for with a smile and even an extra cushion for me! Nothing was too much trouble, would thoroughly recommend.

We found this place on TripAdvisor and its Fab! We stopped for breakfast on our way to Cornwall and the food was amazing. I had the chefs special mushrooms on toast and my husband had a large breakfast , both were spot on. We thoroughly enjoyed it all . The service was quick,the food hot,the staff exceptional and the place was spotless. Dont hesitate you won't regret it!!!

On holiday, saw that they did cream teas so decided to call in. We saw that they closed at 4.00 and as it was only 2.55 thought that we had plenty of time. Immediately, before we even stepped into the place we were greeted by a waitress informing us that the main restaurant was closed but the courtyard was open, fine, sun was out and we preferred to sit outside. 3.05 -took our order for two cream teas, 3.12 - cream teas arrived, 3.25 girl came to clear table we said we hadn't finished, which was obvious, 3.40 a girl came and abruptly plonked our bill on table (although we had not requested it) plus another table of 4 were treated in the same way. 3.45 we left after paying, by the back entrance as instructed by member of staff - downright rude. Goes without saying, no tip was given.

I had the pork Sunday Roast dinner and was perfect. Veg sides were pleniful and delicious. Great staff, great food ,reasonable prices and wonderful dinning room.

My wife and I visited The Grazing Cow over the weekend whilst staying down in Devon for a friends wedding. If you want a decent full English breakfast then this is definitely where you want to go. Portion sizes are spot on and very good value, service is quick, friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be visiting when we are back in Devon.

Lovely spot recommended by Rose Farm where we stayed. Bright, easy going decor and plenty of light and room.outside space too and Farm Shop. Delightful young staff. Great service and very attentive. Lots of good options for breakfast and lunch. We had the full English as our accommodation had a problem with their Aga. Glad we went. Highly recommended.

Wow. This place was absolutely fabulous. We had the most delicious full English breakfast. The staff were attentive and friendly. The food was well worth the prices and the premises were clean and tidy. A great place!

Stopped here for brunch on the way home from Cornwall after a quick search online. We didn’t want to stop at service stations and had tried to find farm shop cafes along the route. We knew it was a good choice when the car park was full and the cafe was busy. The welcome was very friendly and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed. There was a very good choice on the menu, and the food coming out of the kitchen smelt very enticing. They even let us order cream teas before the 11.30am start time for the lunch menu. They were delicious and very generously sized! The coffee was also one of the best I had on the trip. I plan on making a stop here every time I go to Cornwall. The full breakfasts looked fantastic and so did their cakes.

Passing through on the way to Plymouth for football turned around as saw the sign and wasn’t disappointed. Friendly staff and lovely food. Poached egg to die for. Price reasonable too.

Great all day breakfast, friendly staff, but shame about the screeching music. Better if you can sit away from main room.

Great service from this highly motivated young individuals. The food was great and we could not fault the service. We would not hesitate in recommending this place to others.

Fantastic little farm shop an cafe exceptional food an highly attentive helpful staff one of the best places I’ve had the pleasure of visiting

Delicious food, really tasty and an unusual selection. Catered well for children too; including milkshakes in colour changing cups! We sat outside on a hot day and there was plenty shade. The staff were really friendly and very accommodating

Wasn’t expecting too much from what I wrongly assumed was a roadside truck stop. Excellent service with excellent food to boot. A wide varied menu also makes this very upmarket cafe worth a visit. Staff were also very friendly and professional. We have been twice...

Fabulous restaurant! Spotlessly clean, wonderful food, we had driven past so many times, we will definately return! I'm disabled so it was good to have comfortable seats, and easy access to the disabled facilities which were also spotlessly clean. We had breakfast baps and a...

My wife and I are regular visitors to this cafe. I can highly recommend the food and customer service. The adjoining shop is also great for local produce.

We live locally and and have visited the Grazing Cow at Offwell many times for Breakfast or Lunch. It's conveniently located beside the A35, just before the descent into Honiton. The Restaurant is comfortable, light and airy, and outside seating is also available. These days...

Not the cheapest breakfast in the world but certainly one of the best. Nice airy restaurant, quick service, friendly staff and of course lovely food - what more does a weary traveller want?

Excellent meal. Lots of choice and great that local produce is used. Staff very friendly and helpful. Premises very light, spacious and clean

Excellent food and service received again lunch time today. The Madras Beef Curry was the absolute yummiest curry I have ever had the pleasure to eat. Before leaving I did cheekily stick my head around the kitchen door to deliver my compliments to the Chef....

The food here is brilliant. Always have the avocado, smoked salmon and egg on toast. Always cooked and presented perfectly. Would recommend for a friendly, wholesome place to have brunch.

Just had the most delicious birthday breakfast. My husband had the large breakfast and I had the bacon, sausage and egg sandwich... Was absolutely amazing!! The sausages were incredible!! Nothing was greasy, just cooked to perfection. Quick, attentive service with a friendly manner.

We went to the Grazing Cow for a Cream tea on Mothers Day. The selection of food was fantastic, and everything tasted great. Plenty for everyone, very quick and friendly service.

Faultless. Service was slick and all the staff were friendly. Food was so flavoursome, with a good choice and generous portions. Highly recommend!
