I could be generic, so I'm just going to stick to basics. Dog friendly, wheelchair friendly, staff are welcoming, accommodating, and nothing is too much of a bother. Food is delicious, hat off to the chef. Drink is a reasonable price with a good selection. I can highly recommend everything this establishment has to offer, truly wonderful and appreciated. Side note.... I notice spare and free to use towels and tampons in the womens bathroom. We've all been there and very grateful

Great pub, great service, great food... and some of the people we were with are not usually easily impressed when it comes to food. Had Sunday lunch here at the weekend and it was all wonderful and not too pricey. Would definitely return if back in the area.

Just been for a roast here and just got back. Service with a smile always, no long waiting. Food was delicious. I’d give it a 9.7 out of 10 and go as far as saying it’s the best roast dinner I’ve had. Everything was a good portion aswell. Amazing Thankyou. In the photo I added we had already tucked in 😅

We were recommended to visit the Westleigh, and it did not dissapoint. Lovely menu, with plenty of choice for everyone, and exceptional service. The portions were great, we all left happy and full. I cant believe we have not been before. We will definatly return.

Visited recently for a quick early Sunday lunch, although the service was excellent we were left a bit disappointed by the food and felt it was generally average and a bit bland. As it was early the atmosphere was a bit lacking but I've visited in the evening before and it was much better then.

Family pub, very much a local pub for local people.... But the local people are very welcoming. A little cramped, so expect to be close to other people unless you book one of the heated, outdoor seating pods which are fun. Didn't have the food in this visit, but we have had a very yummy carvery early in the year and the burgers are awesome.

Nice pub with decent ale. The food is pretty good. As it's a "foody" pub, it's dead quiet by 9.00pm. Garden can be busy and noisy due to lots of children running about.

What a great pub for food and hospitality. Twelve of us (6 adults and 6 children) visited The Westleigh Inn for dinner. Outside, there is an enclosed seating area which suited us perfectly, as there is also an adventure playground and a grassed area with two football goals. The children were able to play happily and safely. The men enjoyed the footie too! The food was ordered inside and we were told to make ourselves at home and that there were heaters, lights and even blankets in the cabin. The food came quickly and altogether, something you don’t always get with a large party. The meals were delicious and the portions large. The food could not be faulted. All the members of staff were very friendly, polite and accommodating. There was a great choice of menu for both adults and children. This is an absolute gem of a pub set in a pretty village. I would thoroughly recommend it. The whole family had a great time.

We are still talking about the fabulous pie! It is huge and the best pastry! Cut into it and out pours a delicious gravy. The steak was in big chunks so no need for the pie to be filled up - this is quality beef!! I couldn't eat all of tyecpastry much was a huge disappointment because I was stuffed! The chips were absolutely delicious but no room to finish those either. Oh, and my husband's fish and chips was superb too - but oh my, the pie!

This is tucked away in the midst of tiny cottages down streets barely a Range River wide. There is a large car park out back with views over the Estuary and (I think) an outdoors seating area. The pub is relatively spacious but I suspect it gets pretty full. The food was good, I had the burger and it very good with Lots of real chips. Nice local beer and all at a reasonable pruce

The food at the Westleigh Inn is absolutely phenomenal!!!! We visited twice in the last week and both times we had delicious food. There were four of us and we all had different dishes but the food was brought to us really quickly. The staff were all lovely. Nothing was too much trouble. The quality of the food is amazing and reasonably priced too. Can't recommend this place enough.

Been here several times but this visit was spoilt by the very 'cold' waitress. ...bordering on surly. Very unhelpful with an unfortunate manner. I hope she's not like this every day otherwise you will lose custom. I will not return for evening meal again, but maybe lunch as the garden is by far the best in the area.

Fantastic pub lunch with views in Instow. A hidden pub but packs a punch with all the character and charm of a 15th century pub in north Devon. Friendly, professional and engaging staff paired with fantastic hearty food. Spacious beer garden with views over the Torridge estuary looking across to Appledore. Make sure you factor this into your trip to North Devon.

Great location, the beer garden is second to none in the area. Great spot, kids play area, river views, dog friendly and comfy seating…..all good. 😊 Food lovely but some dishes pricey compared to other establishments locally. for eg £18 for nachos with jackfruit!! Saying that the Sunday roast was an exceptional. Always recommend and worth a visit.

After seeing many positive reviews, we thought we would visit for Sunday Lunch, and booked a table for six people, getting our joint opinions for our Hotel customers. When we first arrived we was greeted by several friendly staff, unfortunately this changed quickly by a tall gentleman behind the bar, in this order: 1. We confirmed our booking 2. He asked if we would like a drink, we said yes and asked where are we sitting, he said "on the floor" (I took it as it was intended, a joke). A lady pointed at a table. 3. I ordered some drinks, and this is where he got very unfriendly, enough so that we left without eating. He repeatedly disagreed with our ordered, and what I heard on the radio (a private discussion with a member of our group)... We order 6 drinks, he managed to get them wrong three times, each time I repeated the order. We just wanted to order some drinks and sit down and eat with our group. We sat down and discussed what just happened, all six of us were in shock, we all agreed I placed the correct order, but irrelevant, even if I did make a mistake with the order, or misunderstood what I heard on the radio, he should have not have spoken to me in such a rued manor. The pub looks very nice, but this man made us feel unwelcome and uncomfortable, we decided not stay for lunch. The rest of the staff were nice, polite and friendly. When we paid to leave, he had to have a few more digs and try and turn it around on me. So long as this man is working at the Westleigh Inn, we will not be returning, also advising our Hotel guests to avoid.

Not sure why, but it's been a while since we visited the Westleigh Inn, but it was worth it! It has been updated a lot since our last visit, and all for the better. This lovely country pub has everything, good selection of beer and ales, superb dining if you need a snack or a meal, a great play area for the kids, beautiful views over the Torridge to be enjoyed as you sit outdoors in the well maintained garden area.
