Lovely food, very attentive service and a beautiful location. Could do with a small ramp to assist wheelchair users, but very helpful staff enabled us to get in.

Nice place, lovely views etc but I would not go back as they are a card only establishment and I 100% do not agree with this policy.. cash is freedom and there is no reason for ANY place to operate that system.

We have visited The Ness on a few occasions & this was our wedding anniversary. I was very disappointed at the food considering the price. They obviously rely on the lovely location. The “triple cooked” chips were clearly frozen not fresh & the chicken breast was very over cooked & looked like it had been microwaved. Presentation was poor a couple of cherry tomatoes & a bit of rocket. Very disappointing.

My husband and I went to celebrate our wedding anniversary just a nice spot to have lunch... Not overly fussy but a good meal is all we wanted really... The portions were ridiculously small, the food was absolutely rubbish to be honest I was particularly shocked at my dinner the chicken ceaser salad... As it had only a few scraps of chicken in with lots of chicken skin!!!! Bacon was all fast lumps!! So we will never go again it was also very costly!!!!!

30/06/2024 I came here for a Sunday lunch by myself. Food was terrible, no check back given so was sat with it infront of me for 20 mins before I could get someone's attention. Gravy was cold on arrival. Yorkshire pudding tasted like grease. The beef was way too rare.

Disappointed with lunch at the Ness. Previously have enjoyed our meals there, but the food quality is poor and overpriced, I had mussels, which were our of a bag, tiny and no taste, with a piece of dry bread. We had booked for a lunch the next day, which I will cancel. Such a shame, as a beautiful location.

Mums Birthday meal. Location and décor was fantastic, probably the nicest in the area. Drinks ordered promptly and arrived fine. First waitress who seated us said the salmon wasn't available, however then when the second waitress came who ordered the drinks with us she said no it was available which was slightly confusing. Waitress took our food order including my wife's who ordered the steak frites, took how she wanted it cooked etc. and everything got written into her check pad, however when everyone else's food arrived my wife's steak was completely missed off. After about 5 mins of realizing everyone else had arrived but hers wasn't here yet I asked third waitress to check the order and she said it had been completely missed off the order which seemed really strange considering she had taken her cooking temp selection at the table. She said that they would do it asap, had to wait around 20 mins after everyone had had their for my wife to get hers shortly after. Food was nice when it arrived to be fair but seemed disappointing that we couldn't eat together considering it was a birthday dinner. Not sure if it wasn't checked on in the kitchen, a check back to the table from a member of staff could have potentially picked this up too but we didn't get one. Food was decent when it all did eventually arrive but not sure if lack of communication messed things up which seemed strange again due to the fact that we we're the one ones eating in the entire restaurant at that time too. Steak was comped off the bill at the end which was appreciated.

We stayed here in a 'superior double' room for just one night , it's a lovely old building with beautiful views. The room was really nice with a great shower and we were very comfortable. It's really nice that a staff member takes you to your room and also good that there's a voucher in your room which gets you a free drink at the bar!. This was a Sunday and we ate in the restaurant, the service was good and the fish & chips and steak pie were very good. Breakfast was excellent too. We visit Devon at least once a year and this is the third time we have stayed here - it's such a good location and the staff are all lovely. We'll be back ...

Being locals, we have visited this restaurant on a number of occasions over the last few years, and found the food to be good. However, today I found the food to be poor. I ordered beetroot Wellington, boiled potatoes, roasted carrots and broccoli stems. Sadly the pastry on the Wellington was soggy and the beetroot filling quite tasteless. The Broccoli was stringy and tough, and the potatoes overdone. The waitress, when collecting the plates, asked if everything was okay, and I told her my experience as helpful feedback. She told me she would give my feedback to the kitchen staff et cetera. I had expected that I might receive an apology or an explanation, but although we stayed to finish our drinks, no members of staff thought to speak to us about the disappointment. Hopefully this is not a sign that standards are slipping at the Ness.

We decided to go somewhere different for lunch but actually ended up quite disappointed. Food was barely warm and wasn't anything special, despite the cost. I would normally have been happy to pay a 10% service charge, but having been seated, order taken and food delivered, I was left wondering what if was actually for. We were not offered any condiments or asked of our meal was OK,, basically no interaction whatsoever.

Sunday lunch, very disappointing for the money. Food was luke warm 3 pathetically small roast potatoes, 3 small slices of beef, a couple of carrots and a very small mix of something else. I would strongly suggest you'd currently be better off saving your money and going to a Toby or Spoons, half the price twice the portions, same standard of food, won't be going back.

Sunday lunch with my wife and friends,six of us. Choice of meat(s) from staff information was different to choices of meat(s) from supervisor. Waitresses were very polite and worked well. Management member somewhat 'foreign and indifferent'. Sunday Lunch Beef was not tender. Dessert was the SMALLEST christmas pudding I have ever paid for! Great live music,why we all went. Wonderful view. Overpriced and forced gratuities. Will not bother again to eat there. 6/10.

They looked after her incredibly well, offered drinks and sugary foods and kept an eye on us until she was feeling better. We can’t thank them enough. The food was also good and there are decent veggie and vegan options!

Having booked for lunchtime for my husbands birthday, we were really looking forward to dining with the spectacular views. We were seated at our table and then seemed to be forgotten, ages until a waitress returned to take our order. I had the roasted beetroot with goats cheese & husband had the ham hock terrine, disappointing portion sizes for the cost. Got a bit worried when the waiter returned to clear our starters and asked if we would like to see the dessert menu !! Mains was Shepherds Pie and I had the Nduja Chicken, both tasted lovely but the portions were rather small, especially the side of vegetables with the Shepherds pie. We were contemplating having a dessert but the service was so slow our car park ticket was running out. Presentation of the food was lovely but the slow service spoilt the experience.

A great spot and we got a table in the conservatory. Also Monday is 30% off day, which meant lunch was £17 for 2. The lunch menu was great and I really enjoyed the ham and eggs. The service was good and the food well cooked. Bearing in mind we don't drink I think full price is on the expensive side and would make it nearly £30 for 2 lunches with 1 lime and soda, but on Monday... great value.

Haven't visited here for a while. There food was good, the atmosphere friendly, staff were courteous and helpful.... UNTIL it came to paying the bill. I put cash and a tip on the tray, only to be told "We don't accept cash". If we'd have known that BEFORE we would have eaten, we wouldn't have bothered. The manager tried to tell me it had always been that way... NO, IT WASN'T. It might have been pre covid, but those rules don't apply any more. By refusing to accept cash, you're causing those customers who continue to use cash embarrassment. You are party to a growing government/banker policy that before long will outlaw the use of cash... Lending between family members and friends, savings for children and grandchildren with the coins given to them as pocket money to name a couple of instances. The wider implications will cause deep social divide and difficulties for pensioners and the low paid. Banks are already questioning their customers who make withdrawals how they intend to spend their money. This has every relevance to the services you offer. Until there is a management policy change, we won't be joining you again, which is sad. If you DO intend to retain this policy, PLEASE advise customers on your website and front doors so that we can make an informed choice. But then, there's possibly a reason why you DON'T do this. #cashisking

Nice looking hotel that doesn’t accept cash! And we were not told! A manager tried to tell us there are signs but she was the one who marched us through the place to our table and didn’t point any out. We hate when places pull this on us and wonder what they would do if we start to only the carry cash!? hmm The vegan roast was nice but as it was vegan and not vegetarian it was minus the Yorkshire pudding. No one thought to give us anything extra in its place so I asked. A nice server said he would talk to the chef. We expected an extra potato but he came back with a few potatoes and some extra veg. One thing we have to moan about and it’s not exclusive to this place is the small amount of gravy! It arrives in a small pot that would be more appropriate for a kids meal. Far too many places do this now it’s a legit crime against Sunday Roasts. As the server was so generous in providing extras for our meal we felt it courteous to order desert. The desert was very nice but you can get the same apple pie in supermarkets. We are sure of it! It’s a shame places don’t bake their own anymore. It’s a lovely place Sheldon and the restaurant/hotel is amazing as is the history. Ps…you can make vegan Yorkshire pudding you know. It’s very easy ;)

Rocked up last minute, staff found us a table which wasn't in the dining area as they were full. Food was super -service was good. However, the front of house manager [ whose name I didn't get but who was from the midlands] was dynamite....

With so many poor reviews we only went for lunch because the place we had planned to go was full. But, based on our experience, it was pretty good. The staff were helpful with finding gluten free options, the food was served quickly and of...

We had stayed at Ness House probably about 30 years ago! The rooms are comfortable and the views are quite spectacular really. Breakfasts were excellent, fresh fruit, yogurts, juices and full English. All the staff were really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Small car...

I used to eat at the ness years ago and it was great. Unsure what happened but nothing is good about this restaurant. Staff seems very young and inexperienced, often looking like they are completely out of their depth. Food quantity/quality in comparison to price...

With family living locally, we’ve eaten at The Ness many times over the past 18 months. It’s such a lovely setting that we keep coming back. This time we stayed overnight, but, I think I’m done now because, on every one of the last 5...

The calamari starter was really disappointing, small portion, very poorly presented, didn't look appetising at all. Don't waste your money!

A lovely day in Teignmouth so the four of us took the ferry to Shaldon and climbed up from the beach to The Ness Hotel/Restaurant/Pub for lunch. OK, the good points first…the lavatories were splendidly clean and functional and the outside tables were clean with...

not some unimaginative vegan choices. It was difficult to choose what to eat. The wiater checked the red wine for us and the Merlot was vegan too. Freindly service in a very pleasant room. We will be back

Fantastic location and friendly staff. However unfortunately we were offered meals which variously proved to be unavailable, brought to the table incomplete, or simply the wrong dish completely, culminating in a somewhat forlorn piece of vegetarian roll which we had not ordered. There seemed to...

What a awful visit. £95 for 2 burgers and 2 roasts. The vegetable was old frozen and shrivelled looking. The “unlimited” Yorkshire’s looked like someone had sat on them. No one asked if we wanted anymore thankfully. The spuds disgusting. Looking forward to saying how...
