The Jack Rabbit Vintage Inn in Plymouth

Came down to Plymoth to see the National Marine Aquarium for my birthday and had food here the night before. For the prices everything was amazing. The restruant was clean, staff friendly and talkative, and ordering was fast, and the wait for food was quick too and everything was delicious! I definitely recommend!

Came with the family, delicious food. That lamb skewer is top tier and the waitress was fantastic as well.

I brought my 90 year old mother here for supper while staying at a hotel in Derriford waiting for my father to recover from heart surgery at the hospital. I wanted to treat her to a special meal as the strain of the past few weeks has been tremendous. I googled pubs near Derriford hospital and the Jack Rabbit popped up. I booked it on its cute name and didn’t know what to expect. My mother said she has never had a finer meal and she has been all round the world in her 90 years! The food was delicious, the ambiance was spectacular and the service was absolutely brilliant. I can’t express enough how wonderful our experience at the Jack Rabbit was. 10 out of 10. We loved it.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. Food was top quality and well worth the stay for tea that night. Would definitely recommend to anyone and will be returning soon

Long wait for waitress to approach table. Devon crab cake was expensive and tasteless. As steaks had run out had steak and venison pie which was almost inedible as so hard, including the bottom which even the gravy couldn't soften! Roasted carrots were so hard that they couldn't be cut - presumably too old. The pie content was indicernable. Definitely not worth the full price of £18.50. Luckily we had a coupon for 50% off main meals, but even so lacked value. We won't be going back in a hurry.

Lovely pub/restaurant, it has a comfortable welcoming feel, the staff are always attentive and friendly. The food is always delicious and served propmtly.

Nice atmosphere, clean and tidy, friendly and helpful staff, great food, what more to ask

Great place to eat good food and service.

~Service was amazing, food was exceptional and all the communication leading up to my booking was fabulous. JR catered for a party of 25 with apparent ease and I would recommend to anyone to book there for a meal or drinks for any occasion

A cosy pub with friendly staff and great food.

I believe it’s not the first time Becky-has been caught drinking at work. I hope head office sees this as it’s clearly getting out of hand. Smelly of booze around customers and acting in a disorderly manner.

My husband and I visited this pub on December 30th 2024 whist we were staying next door at the Travelodge as my husband was having spinal surgery the next day at Derriford hospital. We had to sit in the bar as the restaurant was full. We were told that the food would be the same and so would the service. We ordered fish and chips and when it came we were not happy. We had to go and look for cutlery and condiments as none were brought to us. As for the food the chips were very few and lukewarm. And the fish underneath the soggy batter was grey and not at all appetising. And I had never seen a skin on mushy peas, I have now! And to add insult to injury they charged us £42 for this meal and two glasses of lemonade from the pumps. Needless to say we will not be returning here unless it improves significantly.

We went for the New Year’s Eve meal but were very disappointed with the food. My wife’s starters of fondu which had been heated until there was no cheese present. Her pork belly was not rendered enough. My meal of venison only filled less than half a plate with Dauphinoise potatoes the size of a pancake, about a table spoon of red cabbage and a few green beans. Both our sweets were good but by this time our expectations for something good was very low. All this for £58.95 each! I don’t think we will be going back next New Year’s Eve. The only plus side was the service staff was excellent.

Excellent food and friendly, attentive staff. A little expensive for beer and paying for the car park were the only disappointments.

The Jack is magic at Christmas time, couldn't fault it 10/10 cant wait to return

Your food was served luke warm which probably means it's been hanging around for quite a while. Probably explains the rock hard roast potatoes and dry meat. Won't be back and wouldn't recommend

The food was fantastic. The service was brilliant. The atmosphere was lovely. No way to improve. Best dining experience we have had in years

Another love;y Christmas spent here this pub is fab, lovely ambiance , friendly team , warm and cosy and clean we will be back than you and wish you all a very happy new year

We had an amazing Sunday roast. The food was well presented, hot and delicious, thankyou Rob. Craig and his team were very welcoming and friendly. Joseph our gentleman who saw to our needs was very helpful,knowledgable and friendly. Lauren made exceptional lattes, thankyou. The Jack and it's team create a lovely atmosphere where you just know you will want to experience it again. Thankyou guys we had a lovely lunch. 10/10

Boxing Day at the Rabbit - Great atmosphere, wonderful staff and tasty food. Well worth a visit - highly recommended.

Nice pub, shame that yet another chain feels the need to over charge for a G&T, £9.75!! They'll probably blame rising costs, but to be charged £3.ish for the tonic is shocking and the staff come across quite abrupt and blunt with their customer service skills, asked if they had a rose to which they said, no!! No offer of an alternative etc... just blunt answers, it was a bit like they felt like they were doing you a favour, not making it a pleasurable experience. If chains/pubs etc want return business so they can carry on charging crazy prices then a more friendly approach would be welcome, this might make the customers spend a bit more money!!!

We visited just for drinks so cannot comment on the food. Very over inflated prices - £9.75 for a single gin and tonic! Bar staff were unhelpful when asking for a certain bottle of rose wine.....we felt like an inconvenience! No alternative offered or suggested, just "no we have run out". We had a nice afternoon and the pub has a nice atmosphere but unfortunately the staff do not make you feel very welcome.

We popped in at 11.30am on Christmas Day just for a drink. It was very cosy and festive. We'll do the same thing next year as it was a lovely way to start the festivities.

We visited on Xmas eve, pub was so busy the atmosphere was great and the food amazing thanks gain and see you soon

My favourite restaurant and bar in all of Plymouth

Visited on Christmas Day for the special 3 course menu which was absolutely perfect and very filling. Such a lovely lunch in a warm atmosphere with great service. We weren't rushed and had plenty of time in between courses to chat before moving on to the next course. Highly recommended.

We had two meals here recently whilst visiting my Father in Plymouth. My partner and I had the three course festive menu on the Thursday night, which was very good. Our server was Katy who was very good and a thank you to the Manager for giving me some ice for our drinks( we were staying next door in the Travelodge). On Friday my partner and I, my Father and Brother had breakfast at the Jack Rabbit. All our breakfasts were excellent. But what made the occasion so memorable, was the lady who looked after us. Dee was outstanding. She was efficient, friendly and vivacious. Thank you to all the Team at the Jack Rabbit for making our visits so enjoyable

Atmosphere is warm, happy and inviting. The manager (Craig) although very busy was talking to the guests and nothing was too much trouble. Lauren, Dan, Ryan were brilliant, happy to chat and have a laugh with us and the other guests. We love coming here. Thom was amazing. He gave us 110%, our drinks were never empty which was fabulous as I was on the gin!

Have to compliment you on Lauren “H” She made my wife’s day today with her attention to detail and courtesy. She made us all laugh so much it just made her day.

Great visit lovely food , amazing service - ambience , and very festive ! Beautiful pub

I recently visited The Jack Rabbit in Plymouth and found the atmosphere to be warm and inviting, with friendly staff and comfortable surroundings. I was disappointed with the portion size of the chips when ordered separately; the serving was insufficient for one person and did not offer good value for the price. On top of that, it took at least 25 minutes to arrive and wasn’t even hot. Overall, while the pub provides a pleasant environment, I would recommend they reassess the portion sizes of their side dishes to ensure a more satisfying dining experience.

Visited the Jack Rabbit for meal after being recommended here. Was really impressed, the food was amazing but more importantly the service from Thom was exceptional, nothing was too much and so welcoming. It was busy but Thom still found the time to give excellent service and ensure we were looked after. Overall, really impressed with the restaurant and will definitely be back!!

Our friendly local, always a good night with a fine food and a fantastic service from Thom, nothing is too much trouble and always greeted with a smile

This is our local and we love every visit. The food is always spot on and there's a good atmosphere.The service is always good especially from Thom who always goes above and beyond and nothing is too much trouble. We will continue to enjoy our visits at our local.

Absolutely gorgeous place with amazing staff and great food. If you’re looking for a relaxed and enjoyable hangout spot, go here. Highly recommend for a great time out.

Another fantastic lunch and drinkies

My best friend, daughter and myself attended for our Xmas meal today and the manager Ryan dealt with all our issues perfectly. The food was fantastic too. We go back on a monthly basis due to how good it is

Excellent Pub. Go to whenever I'm in the area.

Lovely food , pleasant staff and I lovey environment. Great place to meet up with friends. One of my favourite places to eat.

Multiple visits now, always exceptional service. Staff are polite. Food is great. All round great experience

Great place for food and friendly

Great place to visit for lunch or dinner

Lovely main meal, desert was high price and not nice , very cold room, service was good

Attended for a work's Christmas meal tonight! Great service, great hosts, great food, and a fantastic vibe. Highly recommend to anyone wishing to visit! 🥰

I usually visit the Jack Rabbit when visiting my mum in Plymouth- we go there for lunch. As always the food was excellent and the portion size very good. We were served by a lovely waitress who looked after us exceptionally well - thank you. We'll visit again.

Amazing service all friendly staff and food was served fresh and hot would definitely recommend

Really good service staff were brilliant and food was amazing good quality and served hot

Had a lovely meal, well Cook and nicely presented. The service was very friendly and quick. A big thank you to Debra and the other staff,

twice now no mushy peas. am not happy

This meal was extremely expensive but thought would be a treat . Added pigs and blankets and cauliflower cheese wich each portion was £4,95 but both did not come with our meal and did not get money back for the extra items I paied for will not be ordering again due to paying £80 for 2 roast dinners and 2 affters when some of the stuff you had to paied for extra didn’t even come rip of exspecialy when you have to pay £4.95 for roast potatoes wich usually are part of your roast .

Went here this time last year and got treated like dirt from the staff and kept our mouths shut. However, upon coming here again. Once again the staff are rude and obnoxious to their customers. I’m a paying customer, the least they could’ve done was speak with some respect. Seems to have a huge issue with younger customers for some strange reason. Waiter was absolutely shocking with rude and blunt answers. Won’t be coming here again unless the staff get trained to speak to their younger customers with respect. Was going for a 3 course meal with drinks and walked out after having the drinks as the customer service put us off. Their loss.

Bought 2 overpriced drinks to be told we had to sit outside in the dark and cold because the drinking area was full. Even though there were many free places in the restaurant area. You could not have let us sit until those who reserved arrived? Assuming they were all reserved... Won't be back, just want to take your money, no care for anything else. Take your money elsewhere

Lovely pub with very warm welcoming staff. Lovely choice of meals on the menu & yummy pub food. Great value for money this visit as it was 40% off main meals.

Came tonight with my husband and 2 children and felt welcome as soon as we entered, our server Terri was lovely & constantly made sure we had everything we needed. She was lovely with our 2 children aswell with lots of patience whilst they were ordering. Will be returning 10/10.

Great all round, although a bit tight with the parking spots!

Very difficult to beat in this area, great value for money quality food well prepared and served with engagement

Great service, lovely atmosphere and delicious food. The only slightly negative aspect is the price.

Amazing food and really good service too. All in all a fantastic service

Good, busy pub with good food and staff. If you visit occasionally you can use the Vintage Inn app and get vouchers for money off the bill or compliment drink.

Our server Thom was very professional in dealing with my allergies, the food was good in a comfortable relaxed atmosphere.

lovely food. only thing wrong was no tartar sauce but otherwise yummy

A bit pricy but a nice treat . A Sunday in Nov and no staff wearing poppies not a good corporate or personel msg in a high armed forces area

I ordered the Mac & Cheese, it was so dry the pasta crunched when I tried to eat it, not even sure if there was any cheese just dried out Mac. I’ve had better ready meals from the supermarket and at a fraction of the price. If they employ a Chef I’m guessing it was their day off. Awful. Would not recommend.

We are frequent visitors to The Jack Rabbit when we are in Plymouth. The food is always first class as is the service. A special thank you to Meghan the lovely waitress who served us tonight, you did a great job !

What a lovely pub. Great service and top notch food in a lovely environment.

Fantastic food here. A little pricey but the quality was there so no problem in paying for quality food.

We came here again on Sunday at 12 all had roast, the pub was extremely busy .. food was delicious really enjoyed the pork belly, fatty but that is how we like it, The crumble for desert wow and gluten free amazing dish, my wife is a coeliac and there is a huge range to choose from there fish batter is probably the best gluten free batter we have every had

My husband and I came for dinner tonight. Have been before for a Sunday roast and that was amazing so had high hopes for tonight and the food was just as incredible! Staff all really friendly, but have to shout out our waiter Joseph for his amazing customer service, he was really friendly and attentive and made you feel really welcome. Absolute treasure and a great member to the team!

Dropped in for a quick meet up, so just had drinks. Lovely atmosphere and staff is very friendly. Will definitely visit again

Onion rings soggy. Calamari not crispy and soggy again. Very disappointing

Lovely place, great atmosphere, great food, good service too

A very disappointing meal unfortunately. I did speak to a member of staff who was very apologetic. He offered me a fresh meal or a refund, which I appreciated but declined. I was just disappointed in the quality of the fish which didn't look or taste fresh.

Been there several times. Since the revamp it is great. Try the skewers.

The refurbishment which was done in the spring is very nice. However, the car park is not user friendly for the less mobile and the walk to the entrance isn't under cover either for times of inclement weather. Food, staff and service are all average. Soft drinks expensive.

Lovely pub, hidden gem, great menu! Joseph was our server and he was wonderful - nothing was too much trouble and always smiling!

Roasts and usual pub food. Good service, will go again. Register your car to park for free.

Craig was amazing, really love my Time there

Had a great time. Our waiter was fabulous

Good friendly staff from the moment you enter. Good munu and very good food Tried a number of dishes, all were very good

A nice place to have a meal that we can walk too - usually quite busy so probably worth booking in advance.

first time ordering from you we will be ordering from you again.excellent all round.😀

Absolutely love the feel of the venue following the refurb. Food was amazing quality. I’ve already booked to go again.

It will be a while before going back

Our visit to the Jack Rabbit was a sad occasion, celebrating the passing of a dear family member. It was an occasion where family members came from various parts of the country. We were there all afternoon and evening and can’t express enough how understanding and supportive the staff were. The food was lovely and so was the atmosphere. All the staff were great but Ryan in particular was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for him. We even returned the next morning for a family breakfast. I wouldn’t hesitate to return but hopefully on a happier occasion.

Excellent service and the food was of a very high standard, sea bass in particular was very good.

Needed more staff behind the bar!

Fantastic pub, had a great Sunday roast and stayed for a few cheeky beers afterwards too. Great atmosphere and staff were friendly and very helpfull

Twelve family members unfortunately had to attend a funeral. Eight of us stayed in the hotel next door. We ate at the Jack Rabbit the night before and spent twelve hours as a family on the day and returned for breakfast the next day. This is testament to amazing treatment we were given. I don't want to say service because it was over and above this. From the moment my sister and I approached Ryan to discuss our intentions, he was kind, considerate and attentive. All the staff accepted our range of heightened emotions on what could have been a very difficult day. The food was incredible and all served together. Bar staff were friendly and prompt. It turned our sad day into an incredible celebration of life. Thank you all but especially Ryan. Would highly recommend this amazing gem of a pub.

I had a lovely meal recently at the Jack Rabbit for my birthday. The food came out really quickly and was delicious, and our waiter, Thom, was absolutely fantastic. He was so attentive and polite, and made sure everything was great. My friend bought a little cake for me, and Thom brought it out on a plate which was decorated beautifully, with a candle. It made my evening! Thank you Thom, I will definitely be back again!

Wow! What an incredible evening at The Jack Rabbit with our lovely server Thom. Food was lovely but it definitely was Thom that made our night extra special. We came for a birthday and Thom went above and beyond to make it special for my friend and did this beautiful plate with the little birthday cake we bought. Thom made sure we were happy throughout the whole meal. 10/10 experience!

Really nice pub. Staff are all super friendly and polite. Food was banging too. Very happy it’s so close to us.

Lovely pub, great food and service!

Fantastic Sunday roast lunch, chose the Sunday Trio & there was plenty to eat. Great fast friendly service, would recommend.

Becky was amazing service for us. Food was a little log on service bur becky was brilliant and great with communication

The food was incredible no wait at all for food at all, already re booked in for a family do. Couldn't be happier

As always, great service and really good food, restaurant re-vamp looks good. Value for money and nice surroundings. Friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely use again when in the area.

Waited a while for food however our waitress becks was great. Would recommend the signature burger. Parking is also good. Just make sure you put your reg In at reception.

Lovely meal at the jack Rabbit today, Thom was a brilliant waiter excellent service and such a lovely person thank you again.
