The Rose Salterne in Torridge

Such a shame they have a TV constantly on in the bar area with the depressing news channel on instead of music or something more interesting to look at

Went in for a coffee. Quick service good coffee and free refills what more could you ask for

Nice large open space. Quiet when I went

Excellent value, helpful staff. Quick service to the table. Normal spoons service.

Average Weatherspoons being an OAP can afford to treat the family, bit noisy though but it was a Saturday....

Always good value. Bit noisy for a chat but it was Friday evening!

A typical spoons, great staff and great value

Lovely breakfast and reasonably priced. Usual Wetherspoons pub and atmosphere. Service was excellent.

Very good service and place was very clean food and drinks very good

Typical spoons, although larger than most, decent beer always a seat available

Lovely establishment, just a shame that the food was cold, even though the plate was lovely and hot.

Service very good. Food excellent value, also Weatherspoons tries to buy locally produced foodcif possible and also ethically farmed food, RSPCA approved. Quite comfortable, but gets very noisy. Good coffee. Toilets upstairs...quite a long walk if in a rush!

Breakfast was OK. That's about it.

Good clean pub good food but had mixed grill over cooked for me

This wetherspoons spoons is the diamond in the rough is not what I was expecting it just caught my off guard as I walked The stunning sleek bar the lighting in the spoons is not to be missed The blonde lady who multi tasked 2 customers at the sametime and kept smiling is a keeper, let's hope she goes up through the wetherspoons ranks to management This might have just crept into my top 10 of wetherspoons Bideford u have a gem of a, spoons

Ordered grilled chicken burger and chips. Not nice at all. I was served about 6 chips, all cold and flabby, and the brioche burger bun tasted weird, like someone had smeared it with imitation butter. It's a bit rubbish when a pub can't even get chips right. Service was okay.

Thank goodness for Wetherspoons. Having suffered at the hands of another Bideford restaurant the previous evening, we turned to Wetherspoons for a predictably positive experience. Tasty food, promptly served by friendly and helpful staff. The only blip was that we were in view of the disabled toilet, the door of which was frequently left open by (non-disabled) users; pity that a door closer couldn't be fitted because of accessibility requirements. The fact that we went back later in the week speaks volumes.

Dirty glasses beer taste like chocolate

Best jukebox in bideford, carol is great

Relatively clean, food hot and served quickly. The only thing that I thought was not acceptable is the Shift Manager Louie smoking outside the main entrance! Doesn't look good to customers or set a very good example as a Manager.

Lovely pub, great atmosphere, family friendly, happy smiling and friendly staff both bar and waiting staff. We had a lovely meal.

Food very poorly cooked Service poor

Good pub, wonderful staff especially front of house member called leah. Leah is 10/10👌

Compared to the Barnstaple weatherspoons, this place is a saving grace for north Devon. Staff are always friendly and helpful, Abbie and Jade are a delight. Ale selection leaves something to be desired. All day brunch is always to a high standard, and my wife’s cod and chips never lets her down.

Since I last visited here, it appears that the standard of food has declined. I had the steak and kidney pudding. It was small and the filling was smaller still and lacking in meat hence the food rating. Pity, it's a nice place and provides good service.

Nice quick service, staff are also efficient. Rob the boss is always friendly.

The staff are really lovely. The food was good and came quick. Very impressed.

Lovely breakfast this morning. As always, quick and friendly service. Whole pub clean and tidy. Simply cannot beat it for price too.

Great place to meet friends, good food for a reasonable price. Can't beat a spoons breakfast either!

Can’t fault this place. One of the superior Spoons. Often just pop in for a bite. Free hot chocolate refills too. Food fast Just what’s needed.

We come to north Devon for a holiday every year. The rose saltine never dis appoints in providing a good quality breakfast. We will be coming back for dinner during our stay as it ticks all the boxes. Fantastic and pleasant table service by the staff. Couldn’t ask for better.

This is my local, I’ve been coming here for years and never had cause for complaint, I always come in for breakfast after finishing a week of night shifts as little treat and often pop in for a quick lunchtime drink. Staff are always friendly and helpful, food always hot and cooked well, toilets always spotless. Keep up the good work guys!

Lovely wetherspoons, had several nice meals there now, no complaints at all! Service is always friendly :)

You just can't go wrong with 'Spoons. Totally unpretentious, super quick service, amazingly good value food...we had a haloumi wrap each, chips to share and a soft drink all for £11.50! The staff are always super friendly and helpful too. I have to mention the ladies loos, just huge, pristine and so well thought out. If you want a no nonsense meal and drink, go no further!

Absolutely lovely place to came back a second time before going home, food was lovely, service was lovely staff checked in very friendly. Lovely atmosphere will come back again.

The place looks so cool doesn't look like any other spoons, it's a great mixture of new style and old blended perfectly.

Spoons will never let you down no matter where you are

The seats where really dirty and smelt very funky (pee) The toilets seemed cleaner than down stairs chairs could be explained by the pee smelling chairs. The food wasn't great. I had the breakfast and the hash brown where under cooked still like raw potatoes and the food was mildly warm. Everything was really sticky (hand rails upstairs, tables and floor) The last time I visited it was good.

Great vibes and great spoons, not much to complain about

Good food, good service, nice and clean.

A great Wetherspoons , always clean and staff are really friendly. Just had the new Shawarma wrap 😋 🌶🌶 really good 👍

Ok for a pub supermarket. Outside space is grim, like a large public convenience. Good value as you would expect and reasonable quality food.

Nice food, enjoyed eating outside.

I mean it's cheap, not the best but can't really complain

£25 for 2 burger & chips and a drink bargain

It’s great for a Wetherspoons. Much better than The Water Gate and a bit better than The panniers. Good nightlife and good food all around a good Wetherspoons.

It's a Wetherspoons! Cheap drinks, OK food and the service we received was good. I was perfectly happy with our meals, very happy with the price and would certainly go back. Yes, you might have to move a few finished plates off a table, but that's not the worst thing in the world, and you're not dining at The Ritz, are you?

The Wetherspoon's pub in Bideford - The Rose Salterne - was busy when we called in for coffee. The interior was quite dark and a little noisy, but there was a large undercover sitting out area at the front of the inn, which provided a pleasant and more peaceful environment. The building has a fascinating history and a lot of character. Free coffee refills are a bonus!

Brecky at the Spoons pub. You know what you get and as normal it's up to scratch.

One of the best Wetherspoons I have been in , friendly staff and well managed 👍

It was a quiet Saturday evening when we visited. This place is huge.

Busy alot of regulars that are in there day in day out like every other wetherspoons to be fair. but mostly good atmosphere, I took kids for a meal after school and they enjoyed it very well priced and food came relatively fast and a good temperature. All in all a decent budget friendly place drinks are decent price too.

Nice place for a drink and a meal and the staff are very pleasant 👌

Great place for a meal and drink, highly recommended.

Very pleasant experience, well done

It's a Wetherspoons so it is what it is, I just wish the staff would pick up rubbish that was on the floor, why walk over it 20 times ? Food still on the floor? To me that's unacceptable especially when it's not busy

Lovely comfortable place to eat. Polite and friendly staff. Always found clean and warm.

Overall good wetherspoons, atmosphere weren't the best but that's nothing the establishment can change.

Enjoyed a quick tea here. Food arrived very quickly. Tasty burger with chips.

Called here for tea after a day out in Lynmouth. Ordered my usual five bean chilli which was delicious but came with the smallest portion of tortilla chips ever, 7 in total. Get several more at other places

Tasty and very well priced breakfast muffin with hot drink and free refills. Dropped in spur of the moment and was very impressed. No greasy food and very polite staff. Will definitely use again

Perfect place to meet up with friends.

Typical wetherspoons, great value, decent location. Special beer today 99p/ pint!!

Typical spoons but good staff and friendly, can’t fault it.

Great place to go for a bite to eat and drink

Microwave processed food 13 pounds and a few pence really not good very

Love this place and especially their curries on Thursdays

Good but typical Weatherspons. Drinks are very reasonably priced and it's kept quite clean. Barossa Ink red wine is good.

I can't believe how cheap this place is! 4 double G&Ts £21 and pints of beer for £2.66.

We were staying in Bideford and looking for somewhere local to eat. We came across The Rose Salterne on Trip Advisor. We decided to visit and I’m so glad we did. We managed to walk in and get a seat, were served almost straight away and food came out quickly. I cannot understand some reviews on here as the place was canny and was plenty of people eating/drinking in here. Dont be put off by some of the reviews as the food was tasty and hot

Always find a weatherspoons when we go on holiday and I must say this was one of the best I have been to. Spotlessly clean and very welcoming.

Called for coffee very clean and decorated Christmas theme.

Great wetherspoons. We always take the kids here when we're in Bideford. It's a cosy, welcoming place. The menu choice is fab and suits everyone. The kids love it and it's quick and very reasonable. Of course nothing special but it suits us! The refills on hot drinks are great too.

A well managed Wetherspoons. Friendly & helpful staff. Pub interior was clean. Can't be beaten on price, as you would expect. Food was tasty & well presented.

Understaffed cold food and damaged glasses given

Great pub can't beat a spoons good beer good price

Required some refreshment late afternoon and rather than have coffee due to warm weather had some cider which was of a similar price for 1/2 a pint. Bar and pub were quite quiet so quickly served. Looked at food menu and saw it was substantially cheaper than the Admiral Collingwood in Ilfracombe. Disappointed with standard of toilets which has been reported separately direct to Wetherspoons.

Nice Spoons in a lovely town. People are friendly and you can start up a conversation without any sense of antagonism. Pity it was pouring down 🌧️🌧️🌧️🌧️

The fish & chips were lovely. Nice fresh cod encased in crispy batter - no grease or sogginess. Staff always friendly delivering good service. Cheap, good quality drinks as usual.

Nice little place to go for dinner lot's of choice.

A typically huge Wetherspoons with a long distance trek to the toilets and their usual amazing range of beers, spirits and wine, all at affordable prices. Tables weren't sticky, unlike some 'spoons! There's a few street side tables outside.

Had breakfast here fast hot delicious food and a clean calm environment

A typical Weatherspoons pub. The staff were good, the drinks good at a reasonable price and the food was edible.

Love all the Weatherspoon’s that we have visited, it’s more the clientele than Weatherspoon’s I think but sometimes the seats/chairs look grubby. Hey ho it’s open to the general public.

Large breakfast normally good but the last 2 we have had omg. Cold 🥶, toast like cardboard, missing items, lack of staff floating about.

Some sort of failure resulted in no vegan burgers and no chips!! Wed 30/08/23. Other than that, friendly staff and nice open airy pub. Owner is still to admit Brexit is a disaster and to apologise for his attitude to his staff at the time...

Better and cheaper than the Spoons in Ilfracombe

Loved all the Weatherspoon’s that we have visited

With whether spoons normally you get what you pay for and a bit more. Normally the food is ok/good. This was not. The worst quality food I've had at a restaurant in many years. Chicken burger over cooked. Pizza undercooked. They didn't even have chips?! Will never be returning to this spoons again.

Friendly staff. Quite dark inside

Good size Witherspoon's with plenty of seating. Not too busy considering we went on a Saturday evening. Prices were really cheap compared to London prices and the staff were really friendly. Overall a good experience, I would definitely recommend stopping here if you are in the area.

Amazing big pub and good service

Always a good breakfast. Very friendly staff. Close to town. Always happy to go back. Always clean and tidy.

Please take into context this is 5 stars for a spoons pub. What was expected, clean, quick, value etc.

Nice option to sit outside under shelter but very dark inside. Service was fast and polite.

It's a Spoons? So if you've been to one before, you're going to get the same here.

Very nice experience, staff were friendly and willing to help

I mean, can't complain really can you. Reasonably priced food, not the best, not the worst. Their wings are top tier though. My only issue with Spoons is the fact they allow drinking alcohol from just gone 9am in the morning. I really think it should be sold no later than midday

Can't beat a Wetherspoon's breakfast for the money. Fast service, atmosphere was alright . I can't complain. Will recommend

The food was ok. The outside seating is pretty lacklustre and sparse but for the money, it was ok.
