The Tors Inn in West Devon

Lovely, proper pub in a gorgeous location. The staff were friendly, the food was great and so was the beer. I live quite a long way away in mid Cornwall, but I shall certainly go again.

Stopped for lunch after long walk. Lovely landlady and barmaid, great selection of ales and good hearty meals.

My partner and I came for a lovely weekend away to celebrate my friend’s 27th birthday, and were absolutely BLOWN AWAY by how friendly and accommodating the staff were, and the food was absolutely delicious. What was especially touching was when my partner accidentally left her bag at the restaurant. We were back home in London by the time we realised, but the team were kind enough to post this back to us, which I was beyond impressed by. Thank you so much for making our trip to Dartmoor even more wonderful ❤️

Great pub in Belstone. Lovely little pub offering good food and drinks. Stunning views from the beer garden overlooking Dartmoor National Park. The views are breathtaking. Staff are really friendly and helpful. The place is close to lots of walks over the moor. Situated about 5 minutes drive from the A30 through the lanes. There are a few historic places to see around the area. Also dog friendly which is really nice.

Great location, good, honest food served by cheerful, welcming people. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and great meal

Superb place, friendly staff, food looked amazing

Great service. Great food and quick

This is the most charming pub on the edge of Dartmoor in Belstone. The food outstanding especially the The Posh Cottage Pie and sticky toffee pudding. Nothing was too much trouble for Harley who looked after us exceptionally. She really went the extra mile, making us feel welcome and as though we had returned home. It was hard to drag ourselves away. A return trip is a must and for an overnight stay as I learnt they have two bedrooms! Even better next time would be alcohol free beer rather than alcohol low beer and less alcohol in the puddings. Thank you Harley and your team.

A lovely friendly dog friendly pub. Surprisingly busy for a wet Thursday in September. The food was inexpensive, arrived quickly and the staff were attentive. My veggie burger was one of the best I have had anywhere.

We stayed at the Tor2’s for a birthday treat. Absolutely excellent. We were made to feel welcome from the start. The local pub atmosphere combined with good food and a fabulous location make it hard to beat if you enjoy nosing around a village to look for its history and quirks or if you want to walk further on Dartmoor. There are also lots of historic places to visit nearby.

Opens from midday and serves a fine selection of typical pub food from burgers, pies and fish & chips. Beautiful setting just on the edge of the wild northern moor and has a beer garden on the green which catches and midday and afternoon sun!

We were staying in a cottage up the road and this was recommended to us. We first tried to come on a day that closed early! Our fault for not checking! So when we did get there we weren’t disappointed. A great little pub which was buzzing. I ordered the Cajun chicken salad - it was delicious. It was a miserable, wet evening - I bet it’s lovely when it’s warm outside.

Recommended by our airbnb hosts. Did not dissapoint, lovely friendly welcome, great atmosphere. View outside amazing. Food was lovely, best chicken and leak pie ever! Burgers excellent. Overall would highly recommend.

Popped in for a lunchtime pint and a burger! Lovely pub. Friendly staff … and one of the best burgers I have had for years! I will definitely be coming back for more :-) !!

Great views to enjoy a beer and burger

Had lunch at The Tors in Belstone while the Shed was open (school holidays). Was lovely to eat outside overlooking the epic Dartmoor scenery. Our party had 3 different burgers; cheeseburger, maple & peanut butter bacon burger, & the veggie option Faloumi (falafel with halloumi), and all we're very tasty in brioche buns with lots of trimmings. Skin on chips nice & hot too.

We did a lovely hike and then decided to pop into the pub at the end and the pub staff were almost hostile. We felt very unwanted and it was very clear that we were unwanted in the pub. We asked if we could stand at the bar as understandably they were fully booked for tables and the bar tender acted like she really didn’t want our presence. It’s such a shame because it’s a lovely looking pub but the atmosphere was awful.

We stumbled upon this place while exploring dartmoor and what a find! Great food and lovely atmosphere this place is perfect for a pint (or 5) or for nice pub lunch/dinner. A great selection of beers to boot. The only downsides are it's location, while beautiful, is hard to get to especially at night, and it's a little expensive at lunchtime. We will definitely be back though!

After a 5-mile trek across the Moor, stepped into a warm welcome at Belstone's only pub, The Tors. While the pub has a cosy interior, given the warm and sunny weather, we decided to take our drinks (a pint of Jail Ale and a Sandford Orchards' Mist) to the outside seating area. What stupendous views! We will call in again! :-)

I visited The Shed at The Tors at around midday on Saturday. We were looking forward to it, having visited a fair few times beforehand. We got a frosty greeting from the lady serving. She rolled her eyes at the fact that we only wanted to order a few waters and one beer. I wanted to pay by card and was told that my first attempt was unsuccessful so tried again. On checking my bank a few days later I discovered that both payments had gone through. I can only hope this was an error on her part and not intentional. Her behaviour makes us reluctant to return in the future. Very disappointed!!

A lovely spot in Belstone. The staff were very friendly. Has to be the best burger I have tried! And their Devon Red is delicious. Definitely need to visit again.

Lovely outside seating area in dartmoor. Their vegetarian falloumi burger is amazing

Heavenly cup of coffee in warm surroundings on a slightly chilly day. But £3.70 seemed a bit steep.

I can't rate the pub itself as it was shut (apart from the toilets, which were clean) but The Shed, the burger joint attached, was very good. On the pricey side but the burgers were absolutely delicious, the skin-on fries were crisp and tasty and the view is fantastic.

Booked for an evening meal here yesterday (24th July) and were not disappointed. Draught beers were great and the food was amazing. My partner had the tors burger, I had the faloumi burger, and my daughter had the nachos with pulled pork. Everything was fantastic and portions were big. Staff were all really friendly. We were disappointed that the weather wasn't great on the day we visited, would have loved a few beers sat outside watching the ponies and taking in the stunning view. Hope to visit again someday.

Used the shed rather than bar but lovely village location with stunning views food was ok but didn't have the low % beer we wanted despite it being advertised.

Great outdoor setting, just walking past, ended up having our evening meal there, all from "The Shed". Will go again on a nice afternoon. Enjoyed the Oinky Fries.

Visited Belstone for the first time and stopped here for a drink and ended up having a burger. And what a burger ... it was the tastiest most succulent burger I have ever eaten. Can't wait to return

A homely place with great food and a heart set in picturesque village. We had been stuck in traffic for hours so had to stop to get dinner before setting off again for south west Cornwall. This place was perfect place to resettle the nerves and fill our tummies.

We came back from seeing the Nine Maidens Stone Circle nearby and had lunch there. The place is cosy. The food is good. They have child potions, too. There's a ramp for wheelchairs but the door frame might be too tight for bigger wheelchairs. Parking is difficult if you want to park close to it. There's a parking space a few yards upfront before you get there. They also have free WiFi.

It's a lovely place to visit, we went early evening on a Saturday in July and expected 'The Shed' to be open, but it wasn't, never mind you can still order food from the bar and they bring it out. The service was quick, but we were a little disappointed by a couple of aspects, we had two glass bottles of original coke, neither was particularly cold. When the burgers arrived we found they had been absolutely smothered with a pink coloured sauce (1000 island dressing type stuff) that totally dominated the taste, they make a big thing about using the highest quality local beef in the burgers, pity we couldn't taste anything but pink sauce! The chips were good though.

Beautiful place. I call in now and then as my dad lives near. Today i was going to stop for a drink, but the member of staff I encountered was sadly quite rude. Won't bother again.

Amazing location right on the edge of the moor. Friendly and welcoming staff. I've eaten here several times and the food is consistently great. Good choice of beers and ciders. Love the quirky signs and the personality of the place ("Please don't feed the dogs, ponies or bar staff." It's also clear the pub is the heart of the village, with some nice touches like a prescription delivery service for locals etc. I'm usually here in the winter so sat out on the green for the first time today. If you sit outside, you can only have burgers - they only serve the full menu inside (not an issue - there were loads of different burgers to choose from, as well as a couple of other similar style dishes). Great to sit and enjoy lunch and a drink in the sun overlooking the moor and the burger was really excellent. My only bit of "constructive feedback" for them is to work on the outdoor service when 'The Shed' is closed as the experience was a bit... weird?! It felt a bit strange to be served a burger (as delicious as it was) in a takeaway box inside a paper bag. I genuinely wondered for a moment if they thought I'd asked for takeaway. On opening my paper bag, I was a bit surprised to find no knife and fork, condiments, napkin or even a paper plate. I get that it's a burger and most people eat it with their hands, but I really would expect cutlery and a plate when paying £20 for a burger and a drink - even if I have chosen to eat in the "beer garden". The burgers are big and very juicy so very messy to eat by hand. I went in to ask for a knife and fork. at the bar, but by the time I came back, birds had attacked my fries and knocked over my drink, so I just ate and left. It hadn't really been the relaxing lunch I'd hoped for! I will return - but next time I'd either eat inside, just go for a drink or perhaps go when the outside 'Shed' is open. They were quiet, so it wasn't because they were overrun.

This was our second visit to the Tors Inn and we were definitely pleased we had come back. An unusually warm day in Dartmoor meant we could sit outside and enjoy the stunning views. We both had burgers and commented they were one of the best burgers we’d ever had!! Delicious! It gets busy though due to great food and views.

Lovely food and well kept beer. The answering machine is hilarious!

Been on my list for a long time. Visited on a sunny Saturday afternoon just for a pint and a packet of nuts each. Good range of beers, including local ales. Benches outside have spectacular views of the moor, we were surrounded by grazing livestock. Will return soon for their cheeseboard, which looks amazing 😍

Had a lovely evening drink and sat outside such a beautiful location. The bar staff were very polite and talkative I will definitely be going back

A gem of a pub on the doorstep of Dartmoor. Enjoyed a pint and filled up our water supplies before heading into the park for a weekend of wild camping. And on the Sunday celebrated with local burgers and pints in the sun while watching the village ponies. Magical.

Stunning location serving yummy Devon Red, highly recommend visiting!

Service was friendly in this very quiet pub. Menu looked good, and beer was nice with a good range. Outside space was picturesque and there's plenty of tables and benches. Doggy friendly pub.

Only been here for a coffee before the beautiful walk. By the way, any coffee you want. And after the walk for a well-deserved lunch. A delicious salad with goat cheese and a tapas platter. All served with a smile. A lovely place in Dartmoor. And that's in addition to the great surroundings.

Great pub in a picturesque village in the national park.

The Tors Inn is a picturesque village inn and pub in Belstone, Devon on the east edge of Dartmoor. I only ate there so I didn't rate the rooms. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and attentive. The inside dining was filled with local families and couples who knew the secret of their great restaurant. The Inn also has a great beer garden with spectacular views of Dartmoor. It’s only a kilometre (1/2 mile) walk to Watchet Hill Cottage, End Tor and Nine Stones Circle (see photo) and, going the same direction, another 2.6km (1.6 miles) walk to Okehampton train station.

Great pub, fantastic location, great drinks. Wholeheartedly recommend.

The Tors felt like the perfect mix of a village pub and a dinner destination. The staff were great, the beer fantastic and the food just what we needed. We know that we were lucky to get a walk-in table on a busy Saturday night.

What a pub. Great food and drinks. Hubster was like a kid in a sweet shop with the choice of beers and yes he sampled most of them. We stayed in a cottage just round the corner and the weather wasn’t the best that week. However, this pub was a welcoming place to relax after battling the elements. We booked to eat there 3 days but they ended up feeding us most of the week. Staff are a great team with plenty of banter which is always fun. And when the rain stops and the sun shines, the best beer garden in the country.

Really nice food and friendly staff. We will be going back to visit.

Food is good so is the Jail Ale

Cosy pub with delicious food and beer. Just what was needed after a 25 mile walk on Dartmoor! We were lucky to find a table as we hadn’t booked. Nice atmosphere

After great Dartmoor walk with dog, ended at the pub for lunch. Good weather on Saturday lunchtime meant it was busy outside, but tables turned over quite quickly. Good variety of locally sourced drinks including soft ones. Food was excellent even the gluten free veggie option. Staff friendly and efficient. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic, brakes the journey up nicely en route to Cornwall highly recommend.

5-Star local pub. Excellent spot for an ale and delicious food. Would recommend for anyone passing. Will be back on our next trip to the West Country!

Lovely Sunday roast, struggled to finish the kiddies portion. Gorgeous old pub with a really festive atmosphere and it's doggie friendly too. Need to book well in advance.

Very friendly pub. Dogs welcome. Food delicious.

Can't comment on the food, I'm sure it's lovely, but just a warning for any hikers or people wanting to stop off on the off chance of getting a table. We walked here from Okehampton, it was a wet Saturday afternoon in March, but when we got here it was fully booked. No chance of a quick snack either, it was just a blunt 'no, we're booked'. We where there at 12:30, we saw there were tables reserved from 1:30, we asked if we could have a quick snack and promised to be gone by 1:30 but it was still a blunt 'no'. This isn't a cosy Dartmoor pub where you can stop of for a beer and baguette. It's now more an expensive upmarket three course evening meal type of place. Fine if you're looking for that, but avoid if you're not.

Nice coffee but no waggon wheels

proper food & unfussy environment

Superb pint and warm welcome, on a typically overcast Dartmoor day. The menu has something for everyone if you like pie. Did I mention the pie? Huge slices of homemade pie, served with the best onion gravy and simple fresh vegetables. If you over eat you can book a room for the night. Devon at its best.

The table was fine, the service very welcoming and the food was excellent. Sunday lunch on Mothering Sunday .. very good value.

Amazing food with really generous portions and a cosy atmosphere in the bar. Really cool selection of beers on tap too

Fantastic setting for a pint and burger following a walk on the Moors. Friendly staff. Good selection on cask ales. Great burgers!

8 of us booked for a late Saturday lunch, arrived through the swirling mists of Dartmoor to a nice old pub, very cheery and welcoming staff. Beers were excellent, poured straight from the barrel. The meat based pies were fantastic, great chunks of tasty meat in a rich gravy with a rich pastry case. The vegetables alongside were not overdone and tasted great. The fish pies were a little disappointing, quite a lot of piped on potato and not much fish filling. Would definitely go again.

Excellent Sunday roast in a family friendly village pub. We thoroughly enjoyed the dessert too! There is a reason you need to book in advance as both sittings appeared full.

Perfect for a post hike pint. Very friendly staff, a good selection of drinks and a hearty menu.

Made the difference to our walk across the moors - good range on tap, we were offered leftover roasties for free which were gladly accepted - very friendly staff and good atmosphere - would highly recommend!

Absolutely incredible vegan burger with vegan cheese and Mayo. Highly recommend other vegan options and lovely soup too! Lovely owners

And a terrific team who run the place. Proper and friendly pub. Just what you need on a dreary, drizzly Dartmoor day. And dogs are welcome.

Lovely location beautiful food, only downside the rooms wasn’t clean won’t be returning

Husband which not a happy bunny 🐰, no food , still that's life,

We spent the afternoon in The Tors inn after finding it by chance and had dinner on Saturday, then Sunday lunch either side of camping on Dartmoor. The pub was super busy but the staff were friendly and squeezed us in, the food was excellent and the beers were very good. I definitely plan to visit again when I am in the area.

Visited with friends for Sunday Roast and it was absolutely delicious! Tender, tasty meat (2 x pork & 2 x beef) and a variety of fresh veg, including the most scrumptious cauliflower cheese and humongous Yorkshire puddings . The portions are big but we all managed to eat every morsel after a walk on Dartmoor. Sundays are busy, book ahead to avoid disappointment.

We strolled in, on a crispy cold day, spent walking a circular loop up on the nearby moors, with an impromptu dip in the icy waters to enliven (and then numb) the senses. Walking into the pub, the atmosphere was immediate and welcoming. It was full. Sunday Lunch on this fresh Sunday had obviously invited punters near and far, however, we headed straight to the bar, warmed by the open log fire, where the kind land lady and her bar staff informed us that there were no tables available at present, however, if we liked, we could sit at the bar. A nearby customer, said he had squeezed onto a long table with his large group of friends/ family, thereby freeing a table of two (our numbers) for us. A great bit of luck as the food looked and smelt great! We sat ourselves down, ordered one beef roast and one pork roast, which came in good time and feasted. What a delight. The portions were hearty. The food delicious. Local beef and local pork proving a fitting choice for this rustic and wholesome pub. Proper! The service was brilliant. Attentive and considered. There is a warmth and pleasantness embodied, which is natural and polite. I would thoroughly recommend coming here for a welcome rest-bite, Sunday lunch and drink by the fire. We will surely visit in the near future!

Met up with family members for a very wet but scenic walk, followed by lunch in this very welcoming pub. Good thing we booked a table as, despite awful weather, the pub was very busy. Good food and beer, and hope to return if in the area.

Superb. We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely return next time we are in the area.

Super food, super venue. Lovely hot fresh food. I had fish and chips, my teenage girls enjoyed their burgers and my husband had a lovely pie. Couldn’t fault it.

A quaint country pub. Oldie worldly type. Was great for a family gathering. Parking difficult but ok. Lots of walking trails on the moors nearby. The usual narrow roads in this area. Its somehow connected with a popular pub in Exmouth so menu similar.

Stopped here for some food after a long drive from Mid Wales. The food was amazing and was so tasty. Good portions and was a very reasonable price for what we had. Had lovely christmas decorations up due to it being December, this made a lovely atmosphere and very inviting. Lovely small team of staff and had a big selection of drinks to choose from. Thoroughly enjoyed our meals and wish we lived closer!

Really great atmosphere. Warm and friendly. What an excellent beef pie. The best I’ve had out anywhere..

Such a lovely warm and welcoming atmosphere. Great beer selection and the pies were truly delicious and homemade. We had a great lunch at the Tors.

As soon as you opened the door you were hit with a good vibe there was a great atmosphere. We had a fantastic Sunday roast dinner, the beef was cooked perfectly and we were lucky that they had just started offering Turkey. The puddings were delicious….Great service from all of the staff. Well worth a visit.

Great pub, great food, great location

It's a bit out the way but if that's what you want then it's perfect the food was one of the best pub meals I've ever ever had definitely going back service was wonderful so was the drinks. I must go place

Popped in for a warming beverage after being drenched on the moors. Very welcoming and lovely service!

Great pub in fantastic location

Oh this place is lovely. Good food and cider. Thank you

Excellent - service very friendly and food was great - would recommend this pub if you are nearby!!!

We arranged to meet some friends here for lunch a lovely welcome and a roaring fire. beautiful views of Dartmoor. The food was very good the chef sorted our requests. Dog friendly. Recommend

Lovely Sunday lunch was had by all. Nice beer served here too. And what a location for a nice pub. Need to come back for the summer.

We had the most lovely roast dinner here yesterday after walking up the moor - dog friendly, large portion sizes and quick service. We will definitely be back, thank you!

Stopped off here after walking on Dartmoor. Friendly staff, good vibes in the pub with a good choice of music played in the background. The Beef and blue cheese pie was fantastic. Possibly the best pie I've ever had. Good choice of beers. Beautiful setting.

A must for food! This pub is a little gem in a lovely village. The food is all home made in big hearty portions. Recommend the soup of the day any pie! Thank you Tors team x

Easy to find Nice clean food Friendly service

Lovely pub on edge of dartmoor. View of m.oor and animals. Wonderful pub especially in summer

Kann nur vom Essen berichten... SAU LECKER !!! Tors- Burger TOP !!! I can only report on the food... SO DELICIOUS!!! Tors Burger TOP!!!

Such a friendly pub. We were heading out for a weekend on the moor and stopped for a quick pre-trip drink. Ended up coming back a day early to enjoy another!

Warm and welcoming, great hot chocolate

Beautifully located old pub on edge of the moors. Brilliant stuff and great atmosphere

Great place to drop in for food or a drink. Good service with a smile Lovely food

Epic outside bar and the burgers are to die for..
