The London Inn in North Devon

Cosy pub with fabulous open fire, delicious food and friendly welcome. Fish pie, fish and chips - and a sticky toffee pudding with flavours of ginger and black treacle- very moreish.

Great atmospheric very old pub, good service from landlady and great food opted for the duck in orange the boys had burgers which were enormous!

Gorgeous location in the heart of the Devonshire countryside. Molland is a tiny village and is certainly off the beaten track, but the drive to it is really picturesque. We arrived and got drinks, the lady who served us was very friendly and chatted with us, this made us feel welcome and comfortable. The pub itself is an old building and has tons of character and ambiance. The rooms smelt a little bit musty and damp but this can be understood as the place is so old. Our dog was made welcome too !! The food however was disappointing, it was average at best, I had a rump steak, it was a really generous portion with chips and peas, mushrooms and a side salad. It was not very good sadly, cooked as I had asked but tough and chewy also not very flavourful. I am guessing that it was possibly frozen at some point as were the chips. My partner had the burger. It was also disappointing. Not much flavour at all and certainly not freshly made. The bun was dry, and again, I suspect had been frozen at some point. Fantastic location and lovely people at the London Inn, but, food nothing at all special.

The London Pub staff give a wonderful ambience of a truly wonderful local experience with fantastic food and great hospitality and atmosphere.

If you’re looking for a traditional Sunday lunch then look no further. A wonderful selection of fresh vegetables beautifully cooked, lovely tender pink roast beef, enormous Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes. It’s rare to go out and have a roast dinner as good as one you would make at home, but this one does just that. We all had a fabulous meal. The pub is also so cosy, the staff delightful, we will be going back very soon! Highly recommended

Stayed at Zeal Farm B&B, was recommended here by them. Yes it was Excellent , I had Half of Duck and my wife had Chicken Supreme which was Tasty as mine. Two lovely meals and dessests. What a lovely place to eat. Friendly Owner and his Wife. 10 out of 10 for us . Would recommend this place to eat to anyone

Not a good night hair in drink steak was not edible such a shame the landlady was not there so don't know if it's any better when she is

This pub is off the main roads but well worth the trip. Well kept beer was a great start to a great meal. Good starters and then great slow cooked pork belly and exmoor lamb shank. The rest of the menu looked good too. The interior has a great atmosphere with low beams, wooden settles and a variety of seating alcoves.

Stopped in here after a long day of touristy stuff, and what a lovely quintessential British pub. Landlady was lovely and so attentive, and the food was lovely. We both ordered mussels, portions were absolutely massive, piping hot and full of flavour. We had a lovely meal and were really pleased. Only thing we thought was that it was a bit quiet and maybe needed a bit of low level music or background noise as it felt a bit intense in a very quiet room with 2 or 3 other couples, but this didn't matter too much. Thank you so much! Would definitely visit again if we are in the area.

Outstanding quality pub food. The plates are so hot you can’t touch them. Huge fish and massive burgers. Truly outstanding.

A wonderful step back in time in heart of the Devonshire countryside. This 16th century pub is full of character and history. Welcomed by the hosts we were soon seated and served with some amazing food. A lovely way to spend our 42nd wedding anniversary. Many thanks.

Great pub! Lovely honest food. Gorgeous quirky pub in a quiet village. Polite and efficient landlady and staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our fish and chips which was beautifully battered! Not burnt to a crisp like some restaurants cook it. Lovely Exmoor Ale on tap. Would visit again if we are back holidaying in the area.

Incredibly unfriendly. Sorry to disturb you. Only called for a drink but won’t bother again. Shame because building has real character.

What a find! Amazing food. Had Sunday lunch here after a countryside walk with the dog. One roast beef, one slow roast pork belly. Both gorgeous. Sides of roast potatoes, veggies and cauliflower cheese perfectly cooked and tasty. The chef knows how to season. Portions very generous. Will be back time and time again. Very impressed. Wasn’t going to write this review to keep it our secret but this place needs to be shared xxx

Just had the beef dinner and wow the food was beautiful and tasty and lots of it. The owners couldn’t do enough for you and it’s dog friendly. I would totally recommend

Stumbled across this little gem having recently moved to the area. Stopped for a drink and ended up having a meal as well. Welcoming, great food and service. Wish it was walking distance from my house!

This is a beautiful quirky pub, set in the countryside, with a lovely garden to have pre-dinner drinks. The menu is a chalk board that is brought to you, your order is taken, when your food is ready you are taken to the table. The food is excellent freshly cooked using local produce, the staff are friendly, engaging and we had a laugh with them all. It’s like having dinner at a friends house you are so welcomed, dogs and children friendly. Can’t wait to return when we are next in North Devon.

Excellent food especially the fish dishes. Can’t recommend the place enough. Thank you Clair and Stuart for several brilliant meals. Best pub on Exmoor.

We were staying on Exmoor and found this pub via a recommendation at the B and B we were staying at. The food is excellent and the welcome is just the same. This is a totally delightful pub. Just sitting outside on a warm summers evening was so relaxing but on settling at our table to eat the experience was completely enhanced. This place should definitely be on your list of places to eat and drink when visiting g Exmoor.

We visited for a drink on our first night of a week's stay nearby and were so struck by the pub and the hospitality that we booked a meal for a couple of nights later. We were a diverse group covering carnivore, pescatarian and vegan but were all catered for superbly. We did browse the menu on our drinks visit and asked if they could accommodate a vegan, as there was nothing on the menu, and the chef very kindly had 2 options prepared when we arrived for the meal, which was above and beyond on a quiet weekday night.All the dishes were very well prepared, and we enjoyed the choice of local beers and gins. Very friendly and attentive service.We've rediscovered our love of Exmoor and pubs that are this well run just add so much to its charm, we look forward to returning.

Dinner at the London Inn was a pleasure - party of four had starters and mains and it was delicious. Cannot recommend this place enough - book a table and enjoy just don’t ask for a cappuccino !!!!!

An amazingly friendly pub with a fantastic menu of tasty dishes. 100% recommend when on holiday in this area.

We enjoyed a lovely meal in a pub with a proper traditional feel. The food was well cooked, well presented and plentiful. Loved the quirky ladies toilets & toiletries. A very lovely hostess, would not hesitate to recommend.

We were on holiday and decided to have Sunday lunch at the London Inn please go hungry I think there was half a cow on my plate everything was hot and very tasty we were going to have desert but couldn't manage it, it was so delicious we booked to go back again my husband had the rib eye steak and I had the duck in port and orange sauce once again the meal was fabulous but once again to full for pudding. If you do do go do not follow the sat navigation as it takes you through a Ford get to the Blackcock pub and follow the signs for molland, bonus very dog friendly

The pub was recommended by our hosts and we could not thank them enough! We had a wonderful meal !!!

Very friendly local pub with excellent food and a great atmosphere. The food was delicious. I would definitely recommend it.

We visited here on Friday evening and opted to eat outside as it was such a nice day. There was plenty of choice on the menu and the food was excellent (and plentiful!). We were very well looked after by the landlady, who also managed to produce a few treats for our dog too.This place is a little off the beaten track (which is partly why we chose it in the first place) which means it's so quiet in the beer garden that all you can hear is the tweeting of the birds nearby - perfect if you want some peace and quiet. The inside of the pub looked full of character too and there looked to be a restaurant too if you don't fancy eating outside.It's definitely worth the effort to get there and I would certainly recommend this place if you are after decent food in a nice country setting. It looks as if there are a handful of public footpaths nearby and so although we live an hours drive away, we are already making plans to return here to combine a walk with food afterwards.

Disappointing meal...all the food tasted as if it had been thrown in a deep fat fryer...and the veg as if it had been cooked a week. Dark cramped pub with unfriendly staff.. will certainly not return. Very over priced for what you actually get served.

We walked a good few miles to this pub, expecting lunch. We had checked opening times on the internet. Sadly, despite a cheerful blackboard on the door, which was nicely done, clear and up to date, explaining opening hours (lunch 12.00-2.30) and that the pub would be closed on Monday and Tuesday lunchtimes until Easter (we arrived on a Thursday), the door was locked and no-one was there to let us in. A great disappointment. The pub has a great spot and looked clean and welcoming - except that it was inexplicably not open!There may be an explanation - some emergency perhaps?However, while we were there, another couple arrived and said they had the same problem a couple of weeks ago.You can't afford to have a pub that needs you to make a special trip - it's fairly remote, and it's not as if there's another option a few hundred yards down the road! - and be volatile in your opening hours. Both the internet and the notice on the door appeared up to date and clearly said the pub was open and serving food.Luckily we didn't have to walk the 5 miles back on an empty stomach, as some other kind (but equally disappointed) guests gave us a lift to our car. That made 8 customers turned away just while we were there. Shame.

Excellent lunch off a varied and extensive menu including vegetarian. Top class food, excellent Exmoor Ale and pleasant and friendly service. First class all round

We went to this pub for lunch on Saturday 23rd November.It was cold, unwelcoming, and empty except for ourselves. It felt a bit like Royston Veasey on a foggy Exmoor day.The service was offhand, the food overpriced - all in all it was an extremely disappointing experience.

The welcoming host and locals, extensive refreshments, menus to die for, coupled with the easy atmosphere, made the mad drive from London - "The Smoke" - Town, disappear in an euphoric haze of satisfaction. Pubs really don't come better than this gem that is The London Inn.A superlative recommendation can't do it justice or maybe my vocab is simply not up to the mark. Defo a must to visit, to experience the joys for yourselves, whether alone, couples or large party as we were, Nothing was too much for the genial landlady/staff, who were a laugh-a-minute. Thank you!The reason for the delayed review - I didn't want to share the secret!

Now eaten there twice. Generous portions. Lots of vegetables on the side for no extra cost. Food is very good. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. The pub is friendly and has lots of character. Friendly staff too.

Dinner for 4 was excellent, cider very tasty and surroundings interesting. Overall a great experience, thank you.

After a gap of many years our friends took us back to the London Inn and we are so pleased they did. A first class and generous Sunday lunch, heartily recommended.

Beautiful old pub serving delicious local food. We came here with friends in the evening and ate in the main dining room, lit by fairy lights, which has a lovely bohemian atmosphere. Don't expect cheap 'pub grub'; but well cooked and nicely presented local food. The waiting staff were chatty and friendly, and the pub is full of interesting signs, pictures and old furniture. The outside terrace is a lovely place to sit on a warm summer evening. A real gem.

Booked for Sunday lunch after a lovely walk on Exmoor. Great family run pub with warm friendly reception. We had the beef and lamb roast and both were excellent, large portions with a lovely selection of vegetables. Nice selection of local ales as well. Deserts looked great but we couldn’t manage these after our mains.Recommended but do book ahead for Sunday lunch as it does get busy.

Booked with nmy family for Sunday Lunch. We were 15 mins late but that was no problem at all. Extensive menu for Sunday Lunch, not just the traditional Sunday Lunch. I had excellent fillet of hake. One of the party was a vegetarian and he said it was the best "veggie " meal he had eaten for a long time.Plus Exmoor Ale on draft.....a must visit as excellent value

Sat outside on a lovely sunny day. The staff were friendly, without being imposing. Atmosphere was relaxed. Two roast beefs and one belly pork. Lots of fresh veg. Who could ask for more.

Met up with a group of family and friends for a meal on a beautiful summer evening. The ride over the moor to get there was great and the inn is really picturesque. Lovely g&t; in the outside seating space ( marred only by full ashtrays left by previous guests) Then the meal, huge portions of freshly cooked food, a great menu to choose from and they managed to serve 13 of us all with in a few minutes of each other. My fish was superb and the desert shared with my partner was pure gluttony, but really yummy. The only real drawback is the somewhat treacherous, uneven pathway into the inn.

We found this pub by chance whilst out walking one evening. If is full of character and has friendly staff. What we can't understand is how my husbands turbot was cooked to perfection and he said it was very good. My fish and chips was a.major disappointment. The chips were boring (I think shop bought) and the batter on the fish was to hard to eat . Such a shame.

Our inaugural visit was not off to a good start ! Approaching the bar were waiting for staff to return to serve us and chatting to customers the time passed, and eventually placed an order for a cola (for the driver) and a pint of cider for me.

Visited for the first time in 30 years as we used to live locally.

The London Inn had been recommended to us by locals at another pub we had eaten out while on holiday and we were not disappointed. We knew we were in for a treat when we turned up as the chef was writing the evening’s menu on his chalkboard. We had phoned ahead to book an area for 10 (4 kids) and they had given us our own area. The pub had Exmoor Ale and Otter on draught and a selection of local gins when we dined there which kept the adults happy. Starters of prawn salad,tomato soup and garlic mushrooms in cream, cheese and wine sauce were all cooked to perfection and set us up for our incredible mains! 1/2 a duck in port and orange sauce, sea bass and Ham, egg and chips were all massive portions and tasted amazing. Lovely character and ambience. Shame we discovered this place on our last night.

Truely a delightful Inn one to saviour , food is excellent service great and with a smile & great laugh ! Excellent selection of beers/ gins & the wine list is very sensibly priced. Cannot wait to return

Friendly welcome for me & my dog. Good food & ales. I'd happily return. Clearly a locals pub as well as appealing to visitors. Interesting menu.

Quick business lunch on a rainy Monday - no one else there apart from the beaters from Molland who arrived just as we were leaving.

Booked here from the accomodation where we were staying, the London Inn was recommended to us and being good quality. Had an excellent family meal mid-week, and was good sized portions and good value. Would thoroughly recommend this premises, and will return when nearby.

Not our first visit, and doubtless not our last. It was a Friday lunch time and very quiet; in fact we were the only ones there. Molland is a little out of the way but for the pub at least, it's worth the effort of navigating the narrow twisting roads. The London Inn has a pleasant environment, both inside and out, with nicely presented dishes. A couple of real ales were available plus the usual array of lagers et cetera. The menu was not extensive, as it should be, but, unless I missed it, could have done with some vegetarian main dishes. Service was good, and whilst not exactly wallet friendly, it wasn't way out in this day and age in the UK.

We had lunch here today and it was Delicious huge portions that we thought no way are we getting through this but we just couldn't stop it was that good, Give it a try.

I came here with 3 friends. The staff was minimal however it was explain why and the staff were as attentive as they could be with the amount of other customers there.

We visited this pub last evening. The quality and quantity of the food was outstanding. The landlord, landlady and staff were all extremely friendly. The service was excellent. Our 6 month old German Shepherd was welcomed and made a fuss of. No dogs in the restaurant but fine in the bar and outside. It was a lovely evening so we sat outside. The mussels and the rack of ribs (massive!) were to die for, the mixed seafood platter which I had as a starter was also very good. Catherine enjoyed a very nice beetroot and feta salad. No room for dessert! We will be back. Thank you so much for a great evening.

So few pubs still offer draft beer drawn from the barrel, that if ever I am in the area I always call at the family run, London Inn in Molland, where the Exmoor draft bitter is always served in absolutely perfect condition. This gorgeous Bank Holiday weekend was no exception. It is such a lovely place to visit anyway, that one does not need much of an excuse to make a detour. The London Inn is one of those pubs which has evolved over several centuries. It is sited on a slight grassy hill in the middle of an ancient Devon village, and has a charming combination of smaller and larger rooms, as well as a decent dining room where I've had delicious meals on several occasions, and plenty of outdoor seating offering a lovely view over the village.

The proprietors give a warm welcome and there is an amazing selection of gins as well as beautifully kept beer. There is always a choice of two or three beers with a regularly changing but local guest beer. The Exmoor Ale is our favourite.

Lovely country pub. Great menu, huge portions, something for the whole family. Really friendly bar staff.

Following a delightful train journey from London I found myself dining here with my wife and family. Excellent ambience, huge portions and superb service. Thoroughly recommend a visit.

My favourite place to eat out. Quaint traditional pub, warm welcome and always fantastic food. Good bar area, with good choice of ales and large variety of Gins. Nice undercover outdoor seating area as well as garden. Always busy when I go there, an indication of it's popularity.

Bit disappointed to be honest. I was seduced into trying the London Inn due to the 5 star reviews and great looking menu on the website. Whilst the staff were friendly and attentive the menu was very poor with nothing but meat and one 'fish & chips' dish for mains, not even a chicken dish (veggies or healthy eaters obviously never venture onto Exmoor!). The fish and chips all four of us ordered was cooked to a reasonable standard (albeit in animal fat) but the portions weren't in line with the prices charged. The pub itself is very quaint and the package could be excellent but only if you like your food traditional and meat, meat, and more meat!

We have only ever visited this pub for a drink and a packet of crisps but both have always been good. It is a traditional british pub with a selection of ales and a few wines but last time we were ther it was a cosy place to pop into after a walk.

Nos alojamos en el Molland para unas vacaciones familiares y reservar aquí nuestra última noche. Éramos un grupo de 12 con 2 niños. Servicio fantástico, bien cuidado y chef tienen una cambio desde el menú. Buena elección en el menú. Y es un lado de aros de cebolla debe de ser ordenados. El bar tenía una buena selección de cervezas y una fantástica variedad de ginebras

Visitamos Molland por motivos familiares, y decidimos almorzar en el London Inn. Buen menú, excelente servicio atento y una comida bien presentada y bien preparado. Era agradable tener comida tradicional servida en un ambiente muy agradable. Sin duda volveré a probar las otras comidas en oferta.

Dropped in for pub lunch fish and chips were great and good choice of beers. Topped off with jolly service

What a brilliant, cosy, friendly little pub. I was down from Lincolnshire visiting family in the area, and booked a table for a good catch up. With booze flowing, stunning food, great atmosphere and company. It was the best evening put I have had in ages. My next visit down will be including a stop here!

Enjoyed a lovely meal at this very cosy pub. All 5 of us were totally satisfied with the service and quality of the food. Another visit is a must!!

Amazing Sunday lunch today. We were a huge group, service and food was fantastic. Sunday roast was delicious and vegetables so fresh. Really enjoyed, thank you.

Well worth finding this Country Pub in Molland. Served an excellent Sunday roast, including the Starter and dessert! There was plenty of choice, good portion size and great service. In our opinian very good value for money. Reasonably busy so would suggest booking ahead to avoid disappointment.

Warm, friendly welcome in a very old and traditional Exmoor pub. We were a party of 10 including 3 children. Excellent food with a good choice and very friendly service. Vegetables were cooked to perfection and nothing was too much trouble. Good value and we will definitely be returning.

We were recommended to try the pub by the owner of the cottage that we were staying in. We had a very enjoyable lunch in this lovely, quaint village pub.There was a sandwich and platter menu available, We sampled the cheese and pickle and prawn and crayfish sandwiches, which were served with lovely freshly cooked chips and salad leaves with a delicious dressing. We also had a cheese platter, with an excellent selection of local cheeses, and a seafood plater, with a lovely selection of smoked fish and prawns. Both came with, what tasted like homemade pickles and salad leaves.Can't fault the food or the service. Well worth the visit!

This is what really good pubs were before the eponymous gastropub.Unpretentious, atmospheric, friendly and very welcoming, our magnificent Sunday lunch was simply superb and well worth the 26 mile drive.Thank you for a memorable and thoroughly delicious lunch!

Visited this lovely old pub for Sunday Lunch (6 of us) on 21 August 2016. It is really tucked away in deepest Devon countryside, but the meal was lovely and the service very friendly and the value spot on. Highly recommended for the authentic country pub experience.Lovely cosy dining room which was all the better on a wet old day! I imagine it would be even better with the log fire burning in Winter. All round worth going out of your way for.

August saturday evening dropped in for a simple bite to eat, ham egg and chips.Fortunately I asked the price before ordering, £12.95!! I have no problem with making a profit but that is just greedy.Somebody needs to remind them they are just a remote and pokey little country pub not the Ritz.

We had gone for a wonder from our camp site and got a tad peckish. Our oldest doggy needed a rest so we thought hay lets go for a snack. we walked across the path of the London in and walked in. there was a great greeting from the landlady whom sat us in a nice quirky olde worlde area. great atmosphere. my wife went up to the bar and asked about food, we were told that they only served roasts on a sunday. boo hoo we thought at 1st then we thought hay why not. well all we can say is wow wee they were amazing probably the best roast ( apart from mine of course ) we had eaten out. Thanks again will return when we are on our hols.

We had a lovely evening with our friends at this authentic 18th century pub. The landlady ,Claire, is attentive and full of fun, only too willing to please and make your evening as enjoyable as possible. The food is excellent and beautifully cooked and presented. Quality and quantity. Stuart, the chef, mein host, prepares a varied menu of dishes made with the best local produce. Can't praise him high enough. We like the atmosphere of the place too. Authentic and relevant to the area - farm implements and memorabilia of the old times of Molland adorn the walls. No fake historic chic here. It has the atmosphere that a lot of modern town restaurants try to emulate with fakery but fail. By the way, it's smart casual dress.We have already booked for our next visit.

Group of 8 of us on a cycling trip spent a Friday evening at the London Inn. Beautiful pub, fabulous food. The landlady for whom nothing was too much trouble was brilliant, she had a fantastic sense of humour & instantly made you feel welcomed and at home.

I rang up to see what was on offer for midday the gentlemen was very helpful and advised us to book a table so we did. got there just after midday had a good welcome we ordered some drinks and looked at the menu ,we ordered are meals sometime later it we were served the meal was very good .for the amount of food we got didn't warrant the price we paid ,if you went to a very good restaurant you would got twice as much food for the price .as for booking nobody else came while we were there about two hours.

Booked a wedding at this lovely old pub with good food and owner confirmed in e-mail we had exclusive use. 5 weeks to go Stuart informed us he had double-booked - a stag night with an untold number of bikes on the same night. When we challenged this he swore at us and told us to get out. Nice - had to desperately hunt for an alternative venue. Very rude man.

This is how country pubs should be and has now become in my top 3 places to go to eat in the Exmoor area. The food was great, beautifully presented and suitable for a range of tastes and budgets. My husband's starter would not have looked out of place in the Masterchef final and my desert was also a work of art. The staff were welcoming and friendly and I am already looking forward to returning there soon.

Having made arrangements to meet family for Sunday lunch, the London Inn at Molland was where we settled upon. Unfortunately others couldn't make it, so we (2 adults, 2 children) made our way on the windy road from North Molton to Molland, past horses and errant sheep, to the London Inn.The weather was sunny, which obviously helps, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. It was early on a Sunday and as such the pub was quiet. After ordering drinks and a short wait the meal arrived, and oh! What a meal it was! The meat (5 options available) was cooked to perfection, and the vegetables that accompanied it were well presented, full of flavour and came as large portions.Although the price is relatively steep for a Sunday roast (£14), it was worth every penny and I will be recommending this pub now to all and sundry. It's fairly remote, but worth the extra mileage/detour.When leaving, it was filling with customers quickly - again a good sign of the quality on offer!

Great food good atmosphere, welcoming atmosphere. It ain't fancy, but it's a good place for well kept beer and the Sunday Roast is often bloody amazing.

This is probably my favorite pub in Exmoor for somewhere to have delicious food, Sunday Lunch is AMAZING! beautiful atmosphere, awesome place.

A wonderful old pub that has a traditional country atmosphere. The landlord is very friendly and the service is excellent. The locals use the pub and they add to the friendliness of the place. The pub has not been spoiled and an old world / bygone era can be felt as soon as you walk through the door. A wonderful location.

We are mature age Australians on our first trip to Britain & were told not to expect much in terms of food. We ended up in "The London Inn" on advice from our B&B. Wow!! We were totally blown away by the quality of the food, sumptuous scallops, fantastic pheasant, steak to die for and a chicken pie that went down a treat. When I asked the friendly barmaid/waitress how they managed to hang on to a chef with such talent in such a small town she acknowledged that he was her husband and that they owned the place so he had no choice but to stay! Do yourself a favour, if you love good food, pay this place a visit.

We are lucky enough to live an easy drive from the London inn, and always enjoy a visit here especially after a walk on the moor... We visited yesterday for supper for a birthday meal and had a lovely evening. The food was lovely, with a good choice from mussels, scallops, venison, pheasant, steak, brisket beef, veggie stack, between 8 of us and we all cleared our plates. Lovely puds also, with a nice big jug of custard for the blokes! The beer connoisseurs were happy with the beer, and I thought the availability of the veggie/vegan wine was really helpful for our veggie friend.Well done to the staff, as it was the landladies night off, but they did you proud! Well worth a visit.Just one small point, we would have loved to see the fire going, it just needed a bit more heat for a couple of us.

I was here last year 2014 summer time & the same this year.. The second time around wasn't as good as the first. The menu hasn't changed much if any?. & pub staff didn't seem so interested this time. So I am sorry to say I don't think I will be going back next summer 2016.

Staying at a campsite nearby and was recommended for good food . Lovely old pub and we found the staff to be friendly !Wine was good beer was ok. I had home made chicken ham and leek pie which came with mash but I swapped to home made chips which were more like wedges and very tasty! I expected one pie but it came with 2 both were cooked perfectly and very tasty, as were the vegetables it came with !My wife had home made pancakes with chicken, ham and cheese which were also very good and very generous portions. The pancakes were swimming in cheese sauce which was slightly different than expected but had lots of filling.We both felt really bloated and only had the one course!The pub had a nice feel about it and we certainly enjoyed the food , and was average price .The only thing we felt was it was slight too salty for our taste but we don't add much salt to out food at home . Otherwise a very nice meal.

Very unhelpful staff, knowing we had a table booked left to stand around until we asked to be show our table, very little interest showed by them. larger was off tasted very cheesy. Food was very disappointing, having 4 main meals inedible, 4 tough dishes with 2 even being burnt and covered up with horrendous bitter sauce! Would not recommend this place to anyone!

Very good food. I had the homemade steak & kidney pie on a bed of mash. My daughter had a good portion of fish & chips & my husband enjoyed a generous bowl of excellent moulles. We just needed some sincere warmth & welcome to go with it all.

We booked as a party of 9. Service was really good and the food tastey. Well priced set in a lovely old pub. Looking forward to going back next summer and seeing Ted again!

Having visited last year, we knew this was a safe bet for a good meal. Once again, we were not let down. The food was tremendous and the service excellent. Great beer and wine as well. Our highlight was meeting Ted, the alsatian puppy! We will back, to check on Ted's progress of course and maybe have a pie or steak, or fish or ice cream! A hidden gem.

Great location, great beer and nice beer garden. Sadly we were let down, as were two other groups of customers, over not being able to have lunch or indeed any food at all as the kitchen closed as early as 2.00, we arrived at 2.10. We heard one group asking for just "a pie", surely remote pubs such as these should be able to provide at least something for keen visitors! This aspect lets this pub down so drink there but don't get too excited about the food!

Whilst staying in Molland in the Manor House, my family and friends totalling sixteen booked for Sunday lunch.Our party ranged from 7 to 75 years of age.We booked for 1.30pm and everything was set up for our group and after deliberation we all selected from the four choices of beef, lamb, pork and lobster. No one had lobster.The food arrived promptly with the meat followed by separate dishes of carrots, leeks, cauliflower cheese and roast potatoes. Some of the children wanted a Yorkshire pudding with their pork or lamb and the staff happily obliged. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful and the food was excellent and plentiful.It was a very busy restaurant but the staff worked very well as a team and coped well.The food for the Sunday was only the four choices stated above and all were priced at £12.95. Lunch was between 12-3 but there was no dinner for Sunday evening.Every other day, dinner was served in the evening with a wide choice of menu.We all agreed that we had a lovely meal at a lovely olde Worldly Restaurant. I would certainly recommend it.

Came across this little pub when out for a drive whilst staying locally. It is grouped together in a little hamlet. Very twee! Fairy lights light up the whole interior of the pub giving it a magical feel. We were pleased to find home made soup on the menu. We had eaten at lunch time so did not want a large meal. and what a good choice! The soup was tomato, home made and truly scrumptious. To follow this we had a vegetarian pasta dish which we shared and had a job to eat. Not due to a negative cause but just because the soup was so filling.I would defiantly have both dishes again.On the next table was a large birthday party. A ll of their meals looked delicious too.everyone in the pub was very friendly. A wonderful evening had by both of us.....

We popped in here on spec and ordered two large portions of Mussels and a portion of chips . the mussels were a bit tough in parts but the sauce was good ,and good French bread , finger bowl and the bits you need. The service was ok not particularly friendly or skilled. On clearing the dishes , the waitress was determined to place one bowl of sauce on top of another and thereby spilling the sauce , we suggested she didn't but she carried on and consequently had sauce on the floor and had to mop a further table when she did put it down. This could have been very messy, luckily we moved out off the way . The staff were pleasant enough but not particularly welcoming and everything was a bit offhand , But the price is on the high side for what is a pub with food and average at that . I have paid less for a Michelin starred one course meal locally .
