The Old Inn in South Hams - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Limited opening times, No food so asked out of curtesy if grandson could eat a snack. Was told no but to eat outside in the garden which had a closed sign on the gate, so had eat in the smoking area. Didn't feel particularly welcome. No alternative snack was offered. Wasn't very accommodating, we were staying local and would have returned for a meal but they said closed Monday and Tuesday and we would need to book if wanted to return. I would advise anyone to give this pub a a miss as there are much better pubs in the area

Looked at the reviews online & made an online booking for Sunday lunch - no response. Walked there (40 minutes from Hope Cove). Unfortunately, it was a relatively new landlord without a chef, so no food. Difficult to give a star rating which is why I've given 3

We have just been to the pizza and burger evening at the old inn which we are told is under new management. Jo and Ray were very welcoming, and the food was really lovely, the stone baked pizza was fantastic and the kid’s burger and halloumi burger were really good. They have a family area tucked round passed the bar and a restaurant area, as well. Would highly recommend for great pub food without being rushed.

Very friendly and welcoming With plenty of character. Good selections of beers all very well kept. The food is absolutely amazing, and if you do visit take my advice and try try the fish and chips which are just absolutely unbelievable. All the food that I seen presented to other looked absolutely mouthwatering. Highly recommended..

Lovely Hosts, Ray and Jo are a very hospitable couple. Very welcoming place to come. Both extremely ‘hard working’ to maintain a very High Standard. Food excellent, good portion size. Very much worth a visit if you are in the area.

AMAZING PEOPLE! Super friendly and extremely welcoming to me and my partner. Felt like home and a family feel ❤️ food was absolutely gorgeous, best fish and chips and the best burger ever! Highly reccomended!

Roy and the team were amazing! Couldn’t fault a thing. Service was excellent, very friendly. Food was fabulous, served by attentive, chatty staff. Would highly recommend, will definitely be back:)

Fantastic little pub with a great atmosphere Staff, very attentive and locals very friendly. The food served is another story , absolutely stunning full of flavour and very well presented. I actually closed my eyes once and thought I was in the savoy hotel in London. That’s how good the food is. Good selection of beers all well kept . Can’t wait to go back again. Thank you, Ray, Joe and Staff for an absolutely amazing weekend .

I had the seafood pasta on my first visit & The Chicken Stack ion my second visit…..Both absolutely Delicious, My partner went for the vegetarian Lasagne on Both occasions & commented how tasty it was! As the Second visit was our last night there before returning home we both decided to go for the desert of white chocolate & raspberry cheesecake that was served with ice cream & fresh fruit! Once again absolutely fantastic! The hosts too are very welcoming & friendly & nothing is too much trouble! Will definitely be revisiting The Old Inn next time I’m down here ! Keep doing what you’re doing because you do it Well! Nige & Julie & Dogs

9 of us, 1 baby and 3 dogs booked for Sunday lunch, we were staying nearby for the weekend. What a fantastic pub, Sunday roast was outstanding, would be hard to beat anywhere, simply delicious. Service was great from the moment we walked in, very welcoming and lots of smiles, if you are in the area you would be hard pressed to find better.

Visited for a Sunday roast - meat/ Yorkshire were lovely rest was okay. Beer was flat told them they just put into another glass - shock it was still flat so asked for a replacement which they then tried to charge us for! Food alone was 130 quid Go across the road to the Royal Oak 50 quid cheaper and much better service and food!

Weren’t doing food for unknown reason. Owners miserable and rude. Only really open for some very unwelcoming locals. Not worth spending your money unless they know you.

We all just enjoyed an absolutely excellent Sunday roast. Great choices of meat, fabulous yorkshire puds,vegetables cooked to perfection and BIG boat of gravy. Staff very friendly, polite and efficient and very good value for money. Thank you.

We had a fabulous meal at The Old Inn. As a local it is great to be able to walk to this venue. My Husband had the Chowder (which he said was amazing) and I had the Fish and Chips. They were both really delicious and piping hot. Even though it was a busy evening, the staff were really efficient and cheerful. Best to book though!

Just popped in for a nice pint after a short walk around Malborough having negotiated a field of friendly bullocks. Had tried to book a meal here earlier in the week, but was completely booked, so they must be doing something right! Ambience was as you would expect from a village pub - staff were pleasant.

Booked 2 nights for the Bantham Swoosh. Shan, Glyn and all the staff were so very lovely and welcoming and encouraging! The rooms were bright and airy and comfortable. Bathroom had shampoo conditioner shower gel and body lotions. We ate one night in and one night out. The pan fried sea bream with clams and mussels was delicious. Breakfast is so good and huge! Sham’s poached eggs are perfect. Recommend as a great base for sightseeing.

Our third visit to the Old Inn in the last year and missed the proprietor and his G+Ts this time as he was poorly, but dinner was great. The food is what I would describe as very decent pub food. It is well-prepared, good value for money and the service is excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed the fish and chips and the crumble. Very drinkable Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. We were in the area for a wedding last summer and guests who stayed here were very pleased. I can recommend it without hesitation.

We ate here 4 times during a week's holiday in Malborough - lovely welcoming staff and locals, great food and well kept beer. The Sunday lunch (roast beef followed by apple crumble) was exceptional, and we also enjoyed the steak pie, curry and haddock later in the week. Our dogs were also made very welcome and given treats by the landlord and regulars! Nice to see a village pub supported by locals and tourists alike. Would definitely return if in the area again.

We had the most amazing meal here - varied menu and catered brilliantly for my coeliac daughter and shellfish allergy husband. Such a lovely atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you.

The Old Inn run by Shan and Glyn is an excellent place to stay if you want to explore The South Hams area. Room was comfortable and the food and drink was super. Highly recommend.

Great night out with friends. Wonderful food and service. Great atmosphere on a busy Friday night. Highly recommend the burger.

Visited for the first time today and The Old Inn not only lived up to but exceeded our expectations from the Reviews we had read. Food was great, lovely atmosphere and great service. Thank you

This is a fabulous little pub. The drinks are reasonable compared to some of the Rip Off joints. The Star of the show is the Food which is totally Outstanding. The tables are packed every night & booking is Essential. I had the Mushrooms on Sourdough Toast Starter. Absolutely Delicious. Followed by the Seafood Chowder which was Epic. My wife had the Steak & Guinness pie with Mash peas & Gravy. She Loved it (A great relief from chips with everything). My son had the Bacon Cheeseburger which was about a Foot High. He rated it as one of the best he’s ever had. We have booked again for two nights time. The staff are all very pretty young girls who do an Excellent Job.

So glad we booked well in advance as the night we went it was fully booked. (I booked about a fortnight beforehand). Lovely friendly place. The staff were all very friendly and efficient. We chose the garlic mushrooms to share for a starter. Then we had the curry of the day snd the pan fried haddock. All absolutely delicious. Would thoroughly recommend a visit.

A great pub- of all the restaurants we visited in Salcombe this was the best value for money. Drinks were reasonably priced compared to many places, as was the food. We could see why there were a lot of locals eating and drinking here- the place was the busiest we went to on an evening- every table booked and it was only a Wednesday. We had garlic mushrooms and garlic bread to start which was a good size and very tasty. For mains we had a pizza, Haddock and the steak and ale pie. All were very very good! Service was excellent too!

We ate there Monday night after booking several weeks ago. The service was really good and the 2 girls serving and working the bar did a fantastic job. The food was delicious especially the pan fried cod and coupled with a great atmosphere made for a great first night on our holiday. Thank you

I had roast chicken breast, my partner had fish. We were both delighted with the meal. It was well worth the wait for a freshly cooked meal.

We booked a week in advance for a Sunday Roast. We were the first booking of the day at 12, and we were very pleased to be able to park! The owner and waitress were really lovely and the food was fantastic. Would definitely be back again.

Outstanding food, great service, lovely atmosphere. The children’s menu and food was “proper” food and the fish dishes were top quality. We have booked to return already.

Fabby Curry, great steak pie with creamy mash and tons of steak filling. Most awesome onion rings, thick large rings that hold the batter and have some substance to the onion, best I've had in ages. Cut the rings wider is the lesson from this experience. Really good pub grub and the friendliest of staff so all in all a good time. Would eat here again without any qualm's at all.

Lovely meal and friendly service. Great band too. Thanks so much for a fab start to our holiday. Super clean toilets too.

We always have a brilliant meal here when staying in Salcombe . Food is always delicious . varied menu and really fresh . Staff friendly and helpful nothing is too much trouble . Good value , not pretentious or over priced . Definitely recommend.

Just back from an amazing stay at The Old Inn. Our rooms were clean and spacious, and we could not have asked for more. We ate at the pub for breakfast end evening meals, every meal was cooked to perfection and there were good choices on the menu. Service was friendly and we were well looked after. I cannot recommend this pub highly enough, you definitely wont be disappointed!. Thank you so much to Shan, Glynn and the rest of the team. We also got to meet their gorgeous dogs Archie & Boris. We will definitely be back to see you all.

This pub was 5 doors away from Brightham House where we were guests of Scott and Alistair. Excellent pub grub, and good choices on the menu.

We ate here twice during our stay at a nearby campsite-once for Sunday lunch & again one evening. A lot of the ingredients are locally sourced & the quality of the food is good, nothing fancy just good food & friendly service

Good tableGreat to be able to get a pint of Doombar !My wife had the pan Fried Lemon haddock on mash with wilted veg, very goodI had the Steak & Guinness Pie with chips, very disappointingI expected to have a full crusted pie, instead had bowl of meat, gravy & far too much onion, with a lid of pastryWould certainly not recommend this dish

We booked dinner here on our last night for my daughter’s birthday, the service was very friendly and we were well looked after. The food was very nice and good value for money and well worth a visit.

We were a party of 8 in mid June and an excellent meal. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful - even running out to their car to lend an i-phone charger for the evening. The food was very tasty and great value for money.

I ate dinner at the Old Inn twice (Friday and Saturday night) as I was staying in Malbrough (at a different B&B). Friday night I had the curry which was average. The next night I had a steak which was much better. Certainly would go again if I was nearby.

This afternoon we had a lovely Father’s Day Sunday Lunch at the Old Inn. The food was cooked to perfection, presented beautifully and portion size more than generous with five different vegetables.We had a very warm welcome and the service was very good. Every staff member we encountered was lovely. Our first visit and hopefully not our last.Would highly recommend. Thank you!

Had the most delicious sunday lunch, roast beef, homemade yorkshire puddings, 4 lots of veg plus roast parsnips and potatoes. There had been a small mix up with my booking but the staff were so helpful and we were soon seated at our table.Staff were all great and wouldn't hesitate to return

We were struggling to find a Sunday lunch and calling a place in Salcombe, this place was recommended. The Food was perfect, good quality ingredients, excellent beef and all cooked to perfection. Portions were good too. Well done the chef. Covid protocols were good, and very friendly helpful staff. Thank you The Old Inn.

We had a delicious meal at this pub on Wednesday June 16 th 2021.The staff are very attentive, friendly and polite. Wow - the pie was so full of delicious meat so tasty. The curry was very enjoyable too. The atmosphere was lovely and all Covid rules applied. Looking forward to eating there again tonight. Thanks for a great evening.

What a great pub. Awesome outside area with great retro decor, and a very nice friendly atmosphere indoors as well.Food was spot on. As a party we had the haddock, chicken goujons and the beef & ale pie, which was excellent and very well presented. Followed up by a very tasty banofee as well as a baileys cheesecake.Really friendly service and hospitality, had a good chat with the owner. Nice to see that there are still some great local pubs with the personal touch.If the car park is full you can use the one in the community centre which is free (just opposite the coop petrol garage)

We had dinner here last week and absolutely loved it - our best dinner in Salcombe (and surrounding villages) by far. We arrived a bit late for our reservation but the staff were super chilled about it and very friendly, and the food was amazing. The best burger I’ve had in a very long time, and fish and chips without the thick greasy batter you often get in pubs. We had a lovely time and would love to come back sometime!

Very welcoming and great service ! The food was very good and lots of options for vegetarians (would recommend the mushroom pasta ! ) Great atmosphere, definitely recommend

Well situated and had a great meal and very friendly, no issues with COVID compliance. nice courtyard for outside drinks

Great local pub! Have been in the area for years and only just tried this pub! Great Sunday roast, warm welcome and good service! Also very reasonably priced menu! We will be back!!

The Old Inn is a wonderful example of a classic community led pub, yet one that warmly welcomes tourists. The food is always incredibly good and our first visit back after lockdown was as enjoyable as ever. Local produce and so well cooked by Shan who often comes out of her kitchen to check personally that all is ok. Staff are excellent, incredibly well trained & super customer service skills. Under £50 for mains, a dessert & drinks Worth mentioning that the New Inn has looked after the community during lock down superbly with take away meals, for which we are very thankful. Highly recommend this pub.

Last night in Devon and decided to try the Old Inn , staff were very polite and helpful , chef checked to see if our food was ok (very good touch) Food was delicious and can’t fault this place. Would recommend to everyone.

Excellent service and food at the old inn. Staff very friendly.. also a good variety of drinks. Chef even came out to make sure everything ok... an old school thing which is very rarely seen now. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Knowing how well Glyn, Shan and their team have responded to COVID restrictions, I knew my friend and I would be completely safe dining there for a first meal 'out' - and it could not have been better. Excellent, imaginative, interesting food, beautifully presented; attentive and charming wait staff; a buzzy, lively atmosphere, yet still relaxed as everything was handled so well. We will most definitely be back!

We went for pie night on the first evening the pub opened after Lockdown 2.Usual superb fare - pie chocca-bloc full of meat and nicely presented. A bargain for £10 including a pint!The good thing about this pub is it's got a proper local feel - most people know each other and there's lots of social distanced banter. It was busy but people behaved themselves and the chatter across heads was great fun.Good pub, friendly staff and good food - what more could you want?

Searched online for this pub as it was near where we were staying. Pre booked for Tuesday half term dinner. Pub busy but safe.... brilliant menu, and loads of specials. We had great food, and even my fussy children found food they liked. Would go back and maybe even try their rooms next time. Malborough is nice and central, car park at pub.

We booked in advance to ensure we got a table for the evening we traveled down. Had an amazing meal. I had the haddock with potatoes, peas & asparagus my husband had the chicken jalfrezi. We both really enjoyed it and the staff were friendly and attentive. Prices were reasonable, would recommend.

We ate twice at the Old Inn during our brief stay in Devon. The first time I had Lasagne and Sticky Toffee Pudding; on the second visit I had Chicken and Chorizo pie (they had a special “Pie Night”, where you had a pie and a drink for £10), followed by Banoffi Pie. The food was fresh and home-cooked. The peas were fresh-shucked, not frozen. It was all very tasty and piping hot. The staff were friendly, accommodating and followed the Covid rules. Hand sanitiser was available, and distancing, masks and tracking were all observed. Sadly, I didn’t photograph my food as I was too busy eating and enjoying it!

We had a lovely meal here on a Saturday evening. The staff were amazing, the service was excellent and the fact that the chef came out to check on the food showed that this place really values your custom. Couldn't fault the extra Covid preparations/cleaning too, we felt very safe - thank you!The food was fantastic, especially the vegetarian curry on the specials board which I would definitely recommend. You could tell that the food was extremely good-quality and cooked well. We agreed that our meals were probably the best pub meals we've ever eaten. And it was all extremely reasonable too. Thank you for making our evening and stay in Malborough so wonderful.

We visited for Sunday lunch. We both had lamb accompanied by parsnips, cauliflower cheese, carrots, broccoli, Yorkshire pudding (large) with a jug of gravy. Lovely. Staff were very friendly and Covid rules were being adhered to. The draughtbButcombe was very good. I would recommend this venue to friends and family. Can’t say better than that.

We had the most lovely evening at The Old Inn - delicious pub grub and wonderfully welcoming staff. Every single person we came into contact with was polite, helpful and keen to make our experience a good one. The food was simple pub food done really well. Despite the tricky times we are living in with Covid in our midst, we felt relaxed, safe and welcome. Thank you all at The Old Inn for a wonderful evening.

We visited in October when we were staying next door in Brightham House. The staff were friendly - the chef even came out to check how our meal was at the end of the evening. It was a shame that they had to close at 10pm due to COVID regulations as it meant that the pub was pretty quiet from 9pm onwards.Our food was tasty good honest pub grub - fish and chips and chicken goujons and the biggest portion of onion rings that we’ve ever seen! Beer was good too and the prices were very reasonable.

Recently self-catering holiday in Devon not far away from Malborough and decided to try a takeway Sunday roast from the Old Inn. It was absolutely wonderful, packed brilliantly, large portions, gravy in pots, everything cooked to perfection, good veg, cauli cheese, yorkshire pud etc. Were just sorry we weren't going to be around for the following Sunday! Will definitely be going there again next year. Top notch.

Stayed the weekend as a base walking the coast path. Most enjoyable. Easy parking, comfortable spotless rooms.Excellent staff from the owners to the cleaners. Meticulous Covid management which was really appreciated.We ate there both evenings and really enjoyed them. Really good food reasonably priced.A most enjoyable couple of days thanks to all. One minor gripe which I encounter in many hotels near and far. Being a wet shaver I inevitably bang my head on the shelf over the sink!

A lovely return to The Old Inn and awarm welcome fron Shan and Glyn and their staff. We had a fabulous Sunday Roast with all the trimmings and another fabulous meal on the Wednesday evening. The food is always freshly cooked using local produce and freshly caught fish. Looking forward to visiting again especially on Pie Night.. Many thanks to you all.

Second visit made welcome again. Friendly and helpful staff as well as friendly locals. Excellent value for money. Pan fried haddock was excellent and the curry superb with nice nan bread. Dogs welcome and treats available at the bar.

Excellent! Cants really day more than that. Friendly staff, excellent food and a decent bottle of wine. Fish of the day ..... incredible and highly recommended.

I can not recommend this pub enough, we stayed here for 2 nights and we were welcomed with open arms, we were advised on what to do with our young family! We ate here both breakfasts and evening meal and the food was to die for. The staff in the pub were so friendly and chatty. Our room was cosy and very well looked after, the beds were perfect, complimentary tea, coffee, water and milk in a mini fridge! Just all round a lovely lovely place with friendly faces and a cheerful atmosphere!

Had the most most delicious Sunday lunch with friends today. Excellent starters, and beautifully presented. We all had different meats, & each of them were delicious. Huge portions & one of the nicest Cauliflower cheeses I’ve ever had. Service was super smily, exceptionally clean & felt very virus safe. Highly recommend.

Visited today with friends. I was pleasantly surprised how good the food was. Traditional menu but modern twists that make the food delicious and tasty to eat. I had the fish of the day served on fresh veg- asparagus and crushed potatoes- superb. Would certainly recommend and I will return in the future. Portions were ample too - well worth the prices charged. A hidden gem - just a stones throw from the famous town of Salcombe.

Literally next door to where we were staying at Brightham House. A lovely pub with really friendly staff. We chose starters of baked Brie which came with a lovely salad & chutney. Our mains were huge - no room for pudding! I had pan fried fish on a bed of crushed potatoes, asparagus, greens and samphire, topped with a buttery, garlic sauce. My husband’s burger and giant onion rings was equally good. Book a table during busy times. A little gem.

A really good local pub in a small village outside Salcombe. The food was outstanding and the staff really helpful. We came back for a second evening meal during our long weekend camping. Really dog friendly as well.

Very nice meal and good service. Tables and chairs where all cleaned after each table finished. Meal was of a very good standard, had fish of the day which was haddock on crushed new potatoes and asparagus and wilted greens. Very good portion size I couldn't manage dessert! Staff friendly and very helpful.

Love this pub. Great to visit after lockdown had finished. Super sanitising and social distancing in place. Made me feel very confident to be there. Staff really knew how to handle covid-19 cleaning and measures. Food, as always, was scrumptious. My son loved his dinner and both my husband and I really enjoyed our meal. Staff were attentive but without being too in your face! Overall a very fantastic first visit to a pub after lockdown. High praise to the owners, they've clearly thought about their staff and customer's safety.

Eat at the Old Inn as we were staying in Marlborough and did not want to eat where we were stopping. They fitted us in at the exact time that we wanted to eat. There was a good selection of food on the menu. The service was great, and the food was good value for money.

Post lock down, beautiful walk. Eager for pub lunch. They dont need the lunch time trade because they dont open till 3pm!!!!

We were staying at the Brighthouse House Hotel and didn't want to go into Salcombe. Scott recommended the Old Inn. It was a great experience, the Bar Manager (sorry didn't get her name) was excellent! Good well priced food and a lovely evening. Thank you

I stayed three nights for a visit to the area and found it very satisfactory. Nice room with en -suite Shower, and a comfortable bed. Breakfast was served by the Landlords Wife and from a comprehensive menu. No view but a quite room,

Visited twice during family stay in Malborough. We initially went as almost next door to our holiday cottage and didn’t want the hassle of driving down anymore lanes. Enjoyed it so much we went back Firstly the COVID thing ..... the team work really hard here on cleanliness. Tables well spaced out. We witnessed all tables being cleaned between groups and the staff clean down the loo between each user ( is that the right word?) . As someone still wiping the groceries down the wife felt very safe Important stuff - grub, beer and wine. A fairly short and standard pub menu. All well cooked clearly to order. Few daily specials ( crab ravioli was lovely) . Good value and the puddings are proper homemade. We aren’t usually a pudding family but on the second visit we skipped starters to ensure plenty of space for amazing sticky toffee pud n baileys cheesecake. Finally the welcome - genuine friendly warmth from all the staff and locals who we met. I made a rather cheeky request which I won’t set them up for any repeat requests but thank you again. Good luck with the business in this tricky year and thanks again for two great nights out

lovely little boozer nr salcombe good location and very good staff, anything you need they will provide food very good and a excellent breakfast

Staying in a b&b in the area, we booked this pub for our evening meal. The food was so good! I had the pan fried haddock, fish of the day ,with crushed new potatoes, asparagus, capers , it was spot on! This may look like an average village pub, but the food is up there with some of the best restaurants I have been to.

having isolated for 4 months my wife and I thought long and hard about where to go. Can not praise Shan, Glyn and the staff highly enough. Their warm, genuine, friendly manner belie their hard work and dedication. Absolute 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

we have been a few times with our young children and cannot recommend it enough. Have been before Covid19 and after and honestly Glyn and Shan and all their staff have done an amazing job. The food is amazing and you feel welcomed. Will be back definitely

Lovely place warm friendly people exelent food and drink dog friendly an absolute gem of a place.also great b&b realy nice cosy rooms again great value

As restaurants have been forced to close due to the current difficulties with Covid-19, this pub are now offering a takeaway service. We decided to go for the Steak and Guinness pie,which was packed well, served with plenty of mash and vegetables and was absolutely delicious. Very tasty and beautifully tender meat and friendly service on order and collection. Would definitely recommend as a pick me up and instant comfort during these troubling times.

Delightful village pub, with one of the best tasting pies I’ve had in a long, long time. Good choice of drinks well presented, friendly service & very clean loos. This pub is run by a couple who clearly care about their business. Highly recommend

Just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful and warm welcome to your lovely pub. We enjoyed a delicious meal for two...excellent fish and chips, pudding and wine for an amazing £34! The dog even got sausages! We couldn’t have asked for more friendly hosts...so friendly! We are only down for the weekend but will visit again. Thoroughly recommend.

have been several times and each meal was excellent set in a warm and friendly atmosphere. and its very Dog friendly.

Visited The Old Inn last weekend whilst camping nearby and received a great welcome. Happy for the two dogs to come in (in fact they said it was almost compulsory). The beer was excellent and the food was lovely and well priced. We'll be back next time we visit the area.

We stayed in the village for Xmas for a week so managed to pop in a couple of times the place is clean and cosy with a fire. The staff and locals are very friendly and welcome dogs too

Following the reviews on trip advisor we went in here one rainy night for pie and mash !! Wow ! Great place and fab food ! The staff were really welcoming and it was so cosy ! We had the steak & Guiness pie with mash & the lamb and veg pie with mustard mash, plus a pint each for the amazing price of 20 quid ! This is on a Wednesday night special ! Totally loved everything about the place and wished we had found it sooner ! Dog treats and fuss for the dogs in abundance too !! Highly recommended !

The Old Inn felt really welcoming, with great service and a really friendly vibe. It has a great menu, everything tasted fantastic and it was also very reasonable. If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely visit again.

Fabulous Sunday roast, friendly staff and good ambience. Bathrooms were also excellent. Would recommend

Staying in a cottage for the week it was lovely to have a local pub, with delicious home cooked food and friendly landlord, staff and locals. Sunday lunch was amazing from the roasties to the delicious gravy. Pie night was also a must, difficult to chose what to have from the choice but steak and Guinness was outstanding.Thanks to all at the old inn ,definitely a great part of our holiday.

Just popped into The Old Inn in Malborough,for a drink and lunch after walking from Hope Cove.Staff very friendly,lunch time special,Fish and Chips,£7.50Very good.Everywhere very clean ,Hope and Anchor and The Cove in Hope Cove should take a look at this pub for its cleanliness.Lovely atmosphere,will return if ever in the area again!

Chose fish & chips and a seafood chowder, both meals were excellent. No room for pudding this visit. Staff friendly and welcoming

Though the Old Inn is our local we haven't had Sunday Lunch there in ages. We went last Sunday and the whole thing was brilliant. Lovely tasty food, huge portions and great service. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Excellent food, and a cheery happy atmosphere. The staff are very helpful and attentive The steak was just perfect for my taste. Would have no problems recommend this pub

Visited here for the first time last night as we were staying in a cottage nearby. It was such a fabulous find. The menu is excellent with something for everyone. I had lasagne and my partner had steak pie. We had cheesecake for dessert. Everything was gorgeous. The service was outstanding. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by someone behind the bar even though it was very busy. Even the chef/owner came out to check that everyone was happy. Once again tonight we decided not to go into Salcombe but to dine here instead. The sea food platter and banoffee pie were outstanding. Again fantastic service. Our dog was also made to feel so welcome and given a treat each night by the owner.

Had a lovely meal here. Fabulous food. Great service. Busy little village pub with great vibes. We stayed at the nearby Brightham House Boutique B & B which was also fabulous and well worth a stay

The Old Inn, Malborough, Devon is a gem of a place. Awaits you is a warm welcome and, should you choose to eat there, you will be guaranteed first class home cooking offering a variety of dishes to suit a range of tastes- all very delicious. Can't rate this place, or people, highly enough. Get on down there and enjoy!

Our family was made to feel very welcome in this local’s pub. Decent standard of food with a lot of variety, little ones happy so I’m happy! Small car park at the back is handy since parking is a pain in this small village.
