We had the most amazing Sunday lunch, the meat was tender, roast potatoes exceptional. Desserts were gorgeous. Make sure you visit if you are passing, you won’t be disappointed.

Our second visit to this incredible restaurant hidden behind a pub sign!! Please don’t miss out as you will experience superb food, great service and an experience in culinary expertise that is second to none. I hate aubergines and for the life of me I have no idea why but I chose a starter of aubergine, goats cheese and caramelised onions - OMG, it was delicious. Then Sea Bass, again cooked to perfection. A dessert of Xmas pud with date ice cream and brandy butter finished off a superb meal. I cannot recommend The Lamb enough. They normally have availability through week nights and it is a treat that we all owe to ourselves at the end of a difficult and troubled year.

Meal very good basic fish & chips --------------- But make sure you ask when paying by card if you haven't seen a cash payment machine like the one used as there is a percentage charge added for tips ,which was not explained to me. When I contacted the Lamb my details were taken and was told I would would be credited the amount over charged on my next visit. I don't think we will be taking the offer up.Dissatisfied Customer.

We called an hour before arriving to see if they had availability. They were so obliging and found us a table for three. We arrived to be greeted at the entrance and seated immediately, with our drinks order taken within a few minutes and food order taken when our drinks had been delivered. Our order could only have been taken for 10 minutes before the food arrived. We all ordered the Roast Beef which was phenomenal. The beef was delicious, gravy was properly made. The Roast potatoes have to be the best I have ever had. The platter that came with the meals with the vegetables on, extra gravy and potatoes was a lovely touch. You had enough of what you wanted without it being stingy. I would have to say that this was the BEST Roast in the Valley and that I have ever had. The desserts were delicious and ended a lovely meal. A real credit to the Chef. The service was second to none and our waiter Lewis couldn’t have done anymore to make our time enjoyable. We will defiantly be back! Thank you to the Team @ The Lamb

Hidden away just a few miles outside of Exeter is the most amazing fine dining experience . As someone who rarely takes the time and effort to give a review on trip advisor this just had to be done on this occasion. Any one assuming that this establishment is just going to dish up the same old "pub grub" is missing the opportunity of experiencing fine dining at its best. The owner/chef is building what I believe to be one of the best eating experiences in the area. We were so impressed that we are thinking of getting a holiday cottage just up the road over the Xmas period just so that we can go to this establishment each evening !! What more can we say - Thank you team at the Lamb see you soon

I have been here a number of times and I can say every visit has been more than satisfactory. Me and my partner were greeted by a lovely young man named Lewis who made sure we were always satisfied, comfortable and happy with every aspect of our visit. The roast beef was incredible, cooked to perfection and I was left with a full tummy and in a very happy mood!!

We stopped here today without a booking 10 minutes from closing time. They said they would squeeze us in, very grateful as we were starving! Both had the pork belly roast lunch which was good, I had a gluten free version which meant I could have everything except the cauliflower cheese (they gave me some extra potatoes though!). Pork belly had good crackling, potatoes were good. Only thing that would have made it better would be some more vegetables (like some roasted parsnips/beetroot etc) and I always prefer to have my gravy separately rather than on the plate already. But overall, a good roast for a fair price (£13).

I, or we (as we always go as a family) have wanted to write this review for a very long time now. We just haven't got round to it as we are always blown away by this establishment and frankly wanted to keep it a secret!Just a quick drive out of Exeter you will find this bistro pub with a welcoming and contemporary feel. Once you have taken in the aesthetic (complete with couches and little nooks) you will find the food is just as good if not better. Not only is it delicious with a vegan option always on the menu, it is presented in an interesting way. Finally a pub that serves dishes outside of the box! Praise to the chefs!This is without a doubt our "go to" pub when we want to eat out and be sure to have an outstanding meal.

The staff were extremely helpful, friendly and attentive, and the food.. well it was just amazing, I had the heritage tomatoes to start, followed by the chicken and then chocolate mousse.

The Food was brilliant..there was three of us plus our dog. We had 2 starters of crab with seaweed and avocado, one of ham hock terrine. Mains of chicken with bbq cabbage - yum, plaice with fennel salad, I had the teriyaki aubergine with chilli and spring onion which was brilliant. Attentive friendly staff. The only thing that slightly let our lunch experience down was the bar area. We had to sit there as had a dog with us). the bar area was quite large though only had one table and it was poorly positioned near to the loo doors. So , we chose to sit outside and the rain largely held off. Some umbrellas outside would be good.

We had really looked forward to returning to the Lamb after Lockdown, as we have enjoyed excellent meals there on several occasions previously. Unfortunately our experience was a little underwhelming. We enjoyed our starters, and the desserts were absolutely delicious (orange blossom pannacotta and chocolate mousse). However, we wonder if it was the head chef's night off, as the mains were certainly lacking in quality and cooking technique. The whole plaice was overcooked on one side and lacked seasoning, and my hake was mushy/overcooked, and again under seasoned and lacking in flavour. We had a side of triple cooked chips which were inedible - overcooked, soggy and carrying a strong taste of old oil. We received an apology for the chips, but no offers of a replacement or taking the cost off the bill. We would definitely return again, and hope that it was just an 'off' night, but we were rather disappointed after having had high hopes of an excellent meal based on previous visits!

The current climate meant that we had to cancel our reservation here for Mother’s Day. They called to cancel but said they were doing takeaway. We decided to do this and I have to say the roast was amazing! It was still hot when we got it home and the meat was lovely! Even though it was “takeaway” the care taken to cook this roast was apparent and we all cleaned our plates. At times like these we need to support our local businesses but this is one business that deserves trying out just for their takeaway roast. Thank you :)

So much potential, unexcuted. What has happened, where was the dynamic Italian host who delivered wonderful service and perfectly cooked food. Chunky chips were tough, the gammon difficult to cut and the portions reduced, and charged the same. Table wasn't cleared, a mains knife was still on the table whilst pudding was served, along with side plates and a mains knife . Disappointed to say the least.

We dropped in for lunch and at first were surprised at how small the lunch menu was until we noticed the a la carte menu on the side.There is no doubt the chef proprietor is an exceedingly good cook and as he has only been there a few months will broaden his clientele in time as people appreciate his effort.This is way above your average village pub and deserves credit for offering such interesting food although I would not call it fine dining. Just excellent quality and interesting ingredients.

Just come back from a fantastic lunch at the Lamb in Longdown which is about 10 minutes drive from Exeter. We both had scallops to start followed by deer and then shared a sticky toffee pudding (the addition of ginger to the sauce was inspired) and chocolate honeycombe desert. Every component to each course really was delicious and the flavours were balanced perfectly. At £100 for the food plus two pints each, a coffee and a tip may not be the cheapest but totally worth every penny. The service was also excellent and we also loved the décor. Can't wait to go back!

Always great fans of Dolton Lodge when he was chef at Topsham so once we discovered he was now at The Lamb we had to try it. Little bit concerned that there may only be pub food available but we shouldn’t have worried - the food was right up there with his best. Imaginative, locally sourced and beautifully put together. I was amazed by what he managed to make out of a tomato and blue cheese starter and my husband raved over the pigeon. Both so delicious that they alone would have been worth travelling the 35 miles from home for. The main courses of cod for me and chicken breast for my husband were equally delicious. I could go on and on. Very reasonably priced too and such a pleasant place. Cannot wait to return.

Posiblemente el mejor cordero asado que he probado. Visitamos Dunsford durante un largo fin de semana y The Lamb at Longdown fue una de las recomendaciones del pub. El pub está muy bien decorado y el personal es muy amable, pero la verdadera atracción es la comida. Tuve el cordero y mi marido tenía la carne ambos estaban excelentemente cocinados. El budín de Yorkshire era esponjoso y las papas asadas eran tan sabrosas. Lamentablemente no tuvimos espacio para el pudín. ¡Excelente!

Desperate for an alternative good food, relaxed ambiance not too far from home, we tried The Lamb and were pleased to have done so. Food is delicious, adventurous, attractively served. Look at the website for examples of dishes. For a Friday night it was very quiet, but that might be the sun which had sent folk to the coast. Thoroughly recommend this restaurant to refugees from Dartmoor, and a quick drive out of Exeter. Very good value. The puds are a bit small but reasonable enough to have two as they all looked delicious and again, slightly unusual. Give it a go!

We visited here for Sunday lunch a couple of weekends ago and the food was enjoyed by all of us. Thank you. The girls who attended the tables also were most delightful and pleasant. Very good staff for the positions. The whole visit was nice. However, the bill had to be paid and overall it was fine, but on presentation of my card the request of a tip popped up and as the amount was over £120 it meant a further £!2 (being the 10%) It caught me out but after further looking the button for no tip was adjacent. I pressed this one. I felt guilty as my intention was to tip the girls and had a fiver in my hand. I then thought this may insult them as it was not 10% so left without tipping at all. Discussion in the car park between us was overheard by another customer who interrupted us and told us they had paid the 10% but also left cash on the table., so they were not pleased. The older person in their party was not familiar with the card machine and didnt realise. Shall we go there again.. Yes. but next time will be ready for the system., but I still question whether this idea is good for Longdown.

Great, great, food. From home made bread, the best chips, inventive starters, and a menu that is not too big yet offers a wonderful range and choice. Lovely atmosphere. Well kept beers. Attentive chefs/staff.

Under new(ish) management, the Lamb Inn has been refurbished and given a great new look. Very comfortable inside with plenty of room between tables.

Dropped in for a quick bite at lunchtime. Very friendly welcome, comfortable seating area while we waited for our food. Food was well presented and tasty. One of the best burgers I have had in a long time, my wife's beef sandwich was excellent, and you will not get a better chip anywhere.

I had been following this place on social media waiting for an opportunity to visit. Finally got one and am happy to say, I wasn't disappointed. Had the Sunday roast which was more than adequate in portion size and tastes utterly delicious. I liked the extra gravy to enrich the Yorkshire pudding. Fabulous roast potatoes, and interesting veg. This was followed by a very rich chocolate torte which fulfilled my chocoholic desires.

Had a fantastic Sunday roast at The Lamb last weekend. It was our first visit to the pub and we really enjoyed our visit. There is a great selection of beers and lagers on tap to choose from. We both went for the Sunday roast and thoroughly enjoyed our meals, perfectly cooked meat with ample tasty vegetables for both of us. We will certainly be back!

Elegimos este pub como una parada para almorzar a mitad de camino de Salisbury a Redruth y qué hallazgo fue. Recibimos una bienvenida muy cordial y el servicio de principio a fin fue impecable y muy servicial. Nos dieron el menú, que tenía una variada selección de platos para cubrir todos los rangos de apetitos, pero también incluía una excelente relación calidad-precio, un almuerzo a precio fijo de 15 para 2 platos o 19 para 3 platos, ¡si es que podía llegar a 3! También tuvimos la oportunidad de conversar con el chef, que como grandes amantes de la comida siempre es una ventaja. Mi esposo eligió el almuerzo de precio fijo que venía con el pan y la mantequilla más sabrosos que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo. El pan casero se elabora con una cerveza local y la mantequilla con sabor a miso batida era para morirse. Eligió el primer plato de hongos silvestres y el filete de ternera estofado, ambos de los cuales eran el estándar estrella Michelin en apariencia, sabor y riqueza. El puré de hongos castaños y los chalotes asados con los que venía también eran deliciosos. Mi hija y yo compartimos un aperitivo de bolitas de arancini de alcachofa, luego optó por el hueso glaseado en chuleta de gammon con un huevo de pato perfectamente cocido y patatas fritas triples que eran increíbles. Escogí el pescado del día, un único sándwich servido con pesto de ajo silvestre y fue preparado perfectamente. No soy un gran fanático de las papas, así que pregunté si podía comer el plato de verduras en lugar de la ensalada de papas triturada y, de nuevo, nada era demasiado problema. Sin duda recomendaría el cordero a los amigos que tenemos en vivo en la zona y también nos gustaría visitar una noche para probar el menú a la carta, que a su vez tenía algunos platos extremadamente tentadores.

Visited with my wife and parents. The food was amazing, good local produce done with creativity and class way above and beyond standard pub fare. Had some great beer from Powderkeg on too and the wine list is decent too. Overall an extremely enjoyable meal and the value is fantastic - we'll be back regularly for sure!

We visited after being recommended by a colleague. The building is beautiful very high class & we were greeted by a polite young chef behind the bar. We ate from the pre fix lunch menu which is good value for money however the portion sizes were very small and we found the dishes to be quite bland, especially the chicken starter & the cod main was cooked well however it needed another element to make it a complete dish as there wasn’t much texture. It was a shame as we had high expectations, maybe we visited on an off day. The homemade bread and butter we were brought out at the start of the meal was the highlight for all of us, delicious! Overall a bit disappointing but would give it another try as the restaurant is so beautiful, I can imagine for a romantic evening meal it could be very special.

Hoy fui a almorzar con mi amigo y su hijo y me impresionó mucho la calidad de las fotos de comida en Internet. Así que los llamé alrededor de las 12. 30 y pude sentarme a las 14. 30 que fue genial. Excelente ubicación local, buen aparcamiento y al llegar todo estaba bien, nos sentamos en el salón para tomar una copa, ya que estábamos temprano.

Buscando un lugar para reunirse con la familia a medio camino entre nuestra casa en Cornwall y la de ellos en Devon, The Lamb fue literalmente elegido pegando un alfiler en un mapa. ¡Qué hallazgo! La decoración es cuidada y elegante, y la comida. . . . . . Casi no quiero compartir lo buena que es la comida porque este lugar se va a 'conocer' y inundar rápidamente. El menú de un domingo es relativamente pequeño pero perfectamente formado. De ella todos elegimos calamares o vieiras. El calamar fue el mejor que he probado en mi vida y las vieiras fueron pronunciadas como 'fantásticas'. Luego elegimos carne de res, pescado y papas fritas y bacalao en una cama de puré de apio. Todos estaban deliciosos y las raciones eran abundantes. Los postres de caramelo salados eran igualmente preciosos. Comida fabulosa, bien presentada, un entorno encantador, camareros agradables y bien informados. Todos estamos acostumbrados a comer bien, todos somos difíciles de impresionar y, francamente, nos quedamos impresionados. ¡Ve ahora antes de que todos los demás lo encuentren!

Un amigo nos recomendó al Lamb Inn y, honestamente, podemos decir que no nos decepcionó, desde cosas sencillas como el estacionamiento seguro y sencillo hasta el saludo extremadamente cordial cuando llegamos, nos llevaron a un área de bar cómoda y encantadora, las bebidas llegaron rápidamente como era el menú, pedimos y nos llevaron a nuestra mesa rápidamente, cada cosa era muy elegante, la comida era fantástica, después de que terminamos nos llevaron a la zona del bar de nuevo para tomar un café, si te gusta la buena comida y no te importa pagar eso Un poco más por excelencia, no busque más que el Lamb Inn Longdown.

Lunch time visit-and what a fantastic find this place is! the menu is varied and so unusual-this is a fine dining experience at a ridiculously cheap prices. The chef took time to chat with us and, although the place was quiet, the 2 staff helped make the atmosphere friendly and welcoming. I can highly recommend
