Trehill Arms in South Hams

Not visited for a while and there’s a new manager in place. On arrival we were told that your booked table “was in there with your name on it”. The open fires have been replaced with what looks like dog baskets so the atmosphere seemed cold. Food was ok by the way and as the evening progressed we were being pushed to move on. At this point the restaurant was less than half full with no one waiting to sit to eat. I asked for an Irish coffee and the reply was simply “no”.Then out of the blue he exited from the kitchen grabbed our glasses which weren’t empty and said” we are closing in 5 minutes please leave” . This was at 9.55 pm with other drinkers still in the bar. Bloody ignorant and rude I think and won’t be returning

What a beautiful place. Amazing food. We will definitely be back

Called this evening with friends en route to Plymouth for game against Swansea...very impressed with welcome warmth and food thanks from us all

Excellent customer service and meal experience

My wife and I enjoyed a fabulous Sunday Roast this afternoon with our best friends (table for 6). Food, service and atmosphere outstanding. Melt in the mouth choice of meats, yorkie puds to die for and great veggie options. Friends have already texted, thanking us for choosing the Treehill with the comment, “a proper lovely Sunday Roast”. Already asking when can we return 👍

A great place to visit to relax and enjoy with friends. A good choice of beers and wines and the good really good. A Sunday roast to die for. Staff so friendly and helpful they make you feel so welcome. Try it I guarantee you will not be dissapointed

Amazing, changed alot since the old pub.

Lovely welcoming pub and reasonably priced.

Delicious Sunday roast. Nothing to fault. Service friendly and attentive. Lovely atmosphere.

Gastro pub, nicely decorated, very clean facilities. Meal was very nice, well presented and a fair price. Good range of drinks.

Nice food good service visited Saturday afternoon a little bit quiet nice clean toilets.

Lovely pub with cheerful and welcoming staff. The food was excellent too with very generous portions. Would thoroughly recommend.

Went in for a coffee three weeks ago, coffee machine broken, tried again yesterday, machine still broken. Beyond the wit of man, apparently, to make coffee with a kettle!

Had a stroll around Ivybridge and decided to pop in here for some food.. served by the friendliest, helpful and one of the sweetest barmaids ever!! ( sorry didn't get your name) Food was lovely.. and the interior was very clean and comfortable... catering for furry friends too.. Upon leaving the barmaid commented to my sister how much she had enjoyed having us in there which she was bowled over by.. Landlord she is a credit to your establishment.. !!

Very pleasant little pub. Staff very friendly and welcoming , small but good selection of beers. Reasonably priced food menu which was excellent value for money. Everything a good pub should be , the only negative was no real outside seating but that was a minor gripe.

Called first to ask about children going in and they said no problem. Had our 3 Yr old grandchild with us who was excited and laughing alot. Got asked to keep the noise down because the rooms were echoey. How was that our fault. Food mediocre, overpriced, a children's meal exceptionally expensive and dry. Sadly, not very child friendly which is a sad situation

Warmest welcome we ever had (literally). Staff were so inviting and helped us stay warm and dry after a wet walk on the moors, even putting the fire on for us. Food arrived fast and was a good portion size. Perfect visit.

we walked into the trehill arms like drowned rats and left dry, warm and cosy !! the loveliest and warmest service we’ve ever experienced. we were given a towel, the fire was lit for us, it was an all round lovely time spent :))) perfect pints of guinness too ! thank you, we’ll definitely be back after our next moors walk !

Probably the worst 'Roast' dinner I've ever been served. There was no 'roasting ' of that dinner at all. I have never before seen a carrot resemble a rubber festival band, alas I have now. Air fried food. Awful host. Next time I have guests down we won't be taking them there. Absolutely no doubt there will be a delightful reply!

Food looks and tastes good,worth a try,comes out hot out the kitchen,so its very hot,good service too.

Great tasty Sunday roast (we had the beef and pork). Good choice of vegetables and the service was excellent. We will return.

Great food, very warm and friendly staff ad great atmosphere. Definitely recommend this place and will visit again.

I live in the Plymouth area and just happened upon this establishment. The lovely young lady that served me was extremely nice and the actual pub was a refreshing change from the over modernised pubs of recent. If the food is as good as the service I would highly recommend it.

Great food, great prices and great service!

Went here after a 16Km walk on Dartmoor Food was delicious and came out quite quick The 2 staff that served us were really friendly and looked like they enjoyed their job. Honestly one of the best places I've been in a while! Highly recommend!!

Excellent food, relaxed atmosphere and top class staff. Called in for lunch, glad I did, stayed woth another pint. Highly recommended 2024 still excellent under new ownership. Called in on spec without an appointment and still had a excellent meal and service for an enjoyable afternoon

Lovely old pub, excellent service and really good value food

Helpful staff, great food, reasonable pricing.

Freindly and professional service and a good atmosphere. Tasty food from a limited but sufficient menu (not loads for veggies). Good value, would happily return.

Lovely dog friendly pub with a treat station so your best friend can feel as welcome as you do. Staff were so friendly and welcoming and the food was fabulous. Very generous portions and absolutely delicious. Great service . We will definitely be back

Comfortably the best Sunday lunch we've had in Ivybridge (although that's not currently a very high bar). £15 a head for a good portion of roast lamb and all the trimmings. Recently changed hands so an update to the website is urgently required to reflect current choice and price (especially wine which is £3 a glass more than advertised). New manager is very personable and seems to have good plans for the future. Give it a go - we enjoyed it!

Service was a joke. Barman IDed me but not my younger looking friends (5/6 years younger) only because I’m non white… won’t be returning.

Sunday roast dinner, can't go wrong! Really lovely food and service. A real hidden gem for a Sunday dinner. Beef was just how I like it, pink in the middle and a lovely caramelised crust. Fluffy, delicious Yorkshire puds and crispy roast taters with some gorgeous gravy.

A dear friend treated me for my birthday meal. The food was delicious, service was kind , thoughtful and attentive. Wine served at right temperature and lovely. The pub had a super atmosphere . Such a difference since being taken over . A lovely experience and we will definitely be going back. Highly recommended 👌

Booked a last minute bank holiday mea and was impressed how good the food was I had the steak which was incredible and wife had a prawn pasta dish which was full of flavour. The set up was really nice not too formal and there were people enjoying a quiet drink as well as some people coming in for food. Log fire was burning away and had a couple of decent ales to choose from… Would certainly recommend!

Lovely old pub, very cosy with roaring log fire when we visited. Food was great, service wonderful. Would not hesitate to recommend. Ivybridge has needed a good local eatery for some time. Hope it goes from strength to strength.

A really fabulous refurbishment has happened here and it is now a great place to eat out or have a quiet drink.

I arrange an evening out for a local social group, there were 24 of us. We were easily accommodate, the service was smooth and efficient and the food was beautifully presented and delicious. Thank you Trehill for making our evening wonderful

Wonderful food. ( Sunday lunch) Excellent friendly staff. Good value for money. Would definitely visit again next time we’re down this way. 5* recommendations from us.

Lovely cosy pub for a drunk or food. Staff are friendly.

Nice quaint pub, perfect for small groups or a quiet drink. Food looked nice but just popped in for a pint on a Dog walk. Good selection of taps for a smaller pub.

Popped in early evening after a dog walk. Service was great, so friendly, made a huge fuss of our dogs (treats and water bowls provided without asking). Reasonably priced, well presented, warm and cosy. Ordered four side dishes, all tasty - no complaints at all! 🙂 They smashed it!

Really great food nice atmosphere

Excellent service and helpful staff, great choice of quality food and good drink.

Friendly welcoming staff, great food, and relaxed atmosphere and all at a reasonable price. What more do you need ?

My daughter and I popped to the Trehill for dinner and really enjoyed it. The atmosphere was welcoming, warm and cosy. The fire was on which is always a plus for me. I had two lovely pints of Jail Ale and then gammon, egg and chips. My daughter had the beef burger. Both meals arrived without a long wait (the pub wasn't busy) and were very well presented. More importantly they were very tasty and we really enjoyed what we had. Something to share for a starter might be an option for the menu, but otherwise i couldn't fault it. Thank you the Trehill Arms team for a lovely dinner.

First time visiting, table for 2 at short notice, service extremely friendly and polite, food, prices very reasonable, good size portions, we both had the 8oz honey roast gammon steak, chips, eggs and peas. Cooked to absolute perfection 👌 👍 100% awesome experience and we will definitely be back. Thank-you. What a refreshing change.

Popped in for the pie of the day. Very friendly staff and the food was lovely It was served after 25 mins. Pretty good portion for the price. Will be back again to try the steak.

Popped in after work here for the first time today. Great pub and friendly landlord. Will be going back again.

Stopped by on our trip here in Dartmoor. Lovely cozy atmosphere. Staff were attentive and we didnt need to wait to be served. We had some desserts as we had already eaten. Came pretty quickly, hot and delicious. Pics will be attached. Thanks for making our trip more enjoyable. Highly recommend! My friend asked for a vegan version of the crumble and it was no issue! Also tasted amazing! Small short stay carpark round the corner was also very reasonably priced.

Good food good service nice for a lunch meal not tried evening

Food was exellent, service was incredible and the atmosphere was welcoming. We will be coming back.

Just had a drink here but a nice little pub to come to!

Had to review our Xmas get together last night. Moist turkey🙌 buzzing atmosphere, incredibly helpful staff. Thank you for making a great night out.

Excellent food. Service very good. Loved the atmosphere. Hope they do well- if they keep going like my last visit they deserve to do well

Food was amazing. Waitress was excellent. Ignored by the bar staff on arrival. Only one other table occupied on the first weekend of December. Expecting to be busy, but totally empty.

Was looking for a Sunday roast & stopped in Ivybridge, walked up through the town & came across this little pub. Amazing roast & staff.

Popped in for lunch, very welcoming, good menu, food excellent and reasonably priced! Will go again and would 100% recommend!

Excellent fish and chips. Mushy peas were more like mashed garden peas...or as the waitress termed it not like fish and chip shop mushy peas. Some things not available on the menu.

We booked a table of 6 ,I must say we all enjoyed ,the food was lovely and the service great ,thanks again we will be back …..

Popped in for a quick drink before the Christmas festival. Lovely cosy drinks with the fire roaring. Lovely pints of Peroni, Ale and Guinness. Friendly bar staff. Will definitely be back!

Outstanding, great atmosphere, food and staff. Highly recommended!

We visited for the first time this evening & had an excellent pint of Jail Ale with an amazing burger. The coleslaw should be available as a side dish - it's delicious!

In town for a football game and popped in for a pint. Extremely friendly and helpful staff, decent selection of well kept beer. I didn't have time to eat, but the food nearby customers had looked and smelled amazing. Definitely back next time I'm in Ivybridge.

First time at this pub, met up with friends for a meal. Fairly busy when we arrived, busier later on. Staff friendly and helpful. Service good. Not a huge menu, but what there was was very nice, two pie of the day, tasty, and two chicken parmigiano, again tasty. Would recommend

Thought we would give the pub another chance after we had a disappointing previous visit shortly after the recent reopening. Unfortunately we were disappointed yet again. Ordered drinks and food early evening, a flat pint of Peroni served in an old style non nucleated glass and a very poor glass of pink wine which was almost tasteless. Hey ho - perhaps the food would be okay ....... No it wasn't, gammon steak and chips and chicken parmigiano and chips ordered but sadly the chips tasted old and fusty which I suspect were cooked in old cooking oil the gammon was scrawny but edible and saving grace the two eggs were fine. The chicken parmigiano was also served with fusty stale tasting chips, the rocket salad had no parmesan shavings, the chicken was okay but again did not seen to be freshly cooked and the dressing was certainly not parmigiano and was quite tasteless. The food was generally not up to Gastro Pub standards by any means and finally the drinks in my opinion drastically overpriced. We will not be visiting again until the pub closes again and further new management take over with a qualified chef and bar staff who know how to serve drinks properly.

The food was fabulous. Proper hearty, tasty and not pretentious. Great friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere. Going to become a regular favourite of ours.

We had a great meal on a busy Friday night, I had the chicken pie which was delicious husband had the steak and said it was the best he had eaten in a long time, service was perfect thank you we will be back soon

Have visited the Trehill arms twice before once for an evening meal with husband and son and secondly a lunch with family both times service was excellent, very attentive food delicious and fairly well priced. Sunday roast, however, is massively over priced for what you get Beef £22 and Lamb £18 plus you have to pay an extra £1 for Yorkshire pudding. We didn't see a child's options and didn't think to ask either but then also it never got mentioned when ordering. Arriving late on at 5 was only choice of beef or lamb. Won't be returning for roast dinner

Not a bad little place . Being a local supporter of new businesses, I attended a Sunday Roast with my 7 year old. We both left feeling hungry and made a recommendation but still the Potions sizes way too small. £20 for Adult , £10 kids . The amount of food on the plate says it all. I won’t be booking a roast in here again I’m afraid

Good menu and the food was excellent. Great atmosphere and staff very friendly. Lamb pie was a treat and the strawberry cheesecake was a revelation. Will be back

Amazing food and wonderful staff - very accommodating to people’s needs. Reasonably priced for the quality

Visited this local pub for a Sunday Roast dinner. We both ordered the Roast Beef with additional side of cauliflower cheese. It was absolutely delicious! The beef was perfectly cooked, lean and tender. Generous serving of beef. With it came roast potatoes and carrots, cabbage and puréed parsnips plus Yorkshire pudding. All delicious. Gravy was gorgeous too. To finish we chose the sticky toffee pudding with salted caramel sauce and ice cream and apple and blackberry crumble with custard and clotted cream. Both were scrumptious. Will definitely be returning.

New Onwers. Food was excellent. Portions were very generous. Service was excellent too. Nice comfortable place to eat. Enjoyed it very much.

New management, excellent chef, amazing food. All staff very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended.

New to the area trying out the locals. The Trehill was very friendly and welcoming. Good beer selection great staff. We haven’t eaten there but we have heard great things so will give it a go.

OMG, Alert to everyone, it’s under new management and they really know what they’re doing. Just had the best beef and Guinness pie, the wife had mushrooms in pasta and it’s absolutely amazing

Immaculate pub. I have a garlic allergy and there was nothing on the menu that I could eat. Very kindly, they offered to make me a sandwich, which was much appreciated. Great team.

Im so glad this is open again Ivybridge need this. The tables are set up nicely with the flowers and candles. We both had burger and chips (proper chips) I thought it was reasonably priced and nice food. My only niggle would be to put something else with it like coleslaw and maybe onion rings. Staff couldnt be anymore helpful, we will be returning

The Trehill Arms is absolutely fantastic! We experienced a warm and friendly welcome from the moment we walked in. The mushroom starter was the best I’d had and a huge portion! We had fish and chips and the burger and both meals were faultless. We finished with the crumble and coffee - the perfect ending! The waitresses were outstanding - couldn’t have been more helpful. I would 100% recommend!!

Fantastic spot but sadly no outside area. Food was delicious served by such lovely friendly staff.

The managers and the people that worked there are really lovely to talk to make you feel welcome, Easily recommend if want some grub and or a pint!.

It used to be a good pub but has struggled to keep a landlord. The decor, on face of it, is quite nice, until u start looking closer n see that it is quite grubby. I believe the managers have had trouble getting the leaseholders to do any work. Shame, was best pub when first opened.

Very welcoming. Excellent food and Sea Fury. What more could you want.

Well I have been here 3 times now twice with the previous management and my 3rd visit will be my last. The portions are considerably small now, I know the cost of living has hit everyone but surely with what's served you can't still push the price up. I had the salmon and I felt like I was pushing a salt container around my mouth. My companion had the crab linguine and let's just say we needed a magnifying glass to find the crab, and the pasta tasted of rubber. We are so so disappointed and feel robbed of our money. I'm all for supporting local businesses but where is Gordon Ramsey when you need him. I won't be coming back in the future, safe to say it was a wasted trip.

Lovely pub. Clean and staff very welcoming and great on service. Highly recommend. Faultless hence 5 stars

Such a lovely atmosphere, with friendly staff. I would definitely recommend to friends and family and will be coming again!

New new owners. The woman is horrible. Avoid this place .

Lovely meal. Attentive service. Glad to see the pub open and busy.

Very tasty food, nice atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff in a good location in Ivybridge. Thank you for lunch.

Very nice food and really accommodating staff. They were so helpful with our 18 month old. I know they only recently took on the place, wish them all the best for the future.

Great pub with friendly staff, slightly high on the price of a pint but a good location. A great first date location, i didn’t order food but it looked good.

I came tonight for a meal with my girlfriend, I had the bacon and cheese burger come out with a brioche bun what was Hard and not even toasted, a small tiny Piece of streaky bacon, with a handful of chips. Girlfriend steak was nice very fatty, the blue cheese sauce could’ve been water wasn’t best pleased………

Limited menu at the moment but my meal was so tasty. Friendly helpful service.

Nice food but the range of choises was quite small.

Excellent food, great service and a lovely atmosphere! We will definitely be back!!

I stumbled across this by accident when a friend and I were looking for somewhere to meet in- between Plymouth and Totnes. Really nice refurb, with cosy places to sit and have a drink. A solo woman was sitting on a settee enjoying a G & T and chatting on her phone - so definitely safe and comfortable for all. The tapas was amazing, some of the best calamari I've ever had! Definitely worth a visit.

Had meal today the food was absolutely fantastic the bar staff were extremely friendly will definitely be back
