The best restaurants in Upper Yeo Mid Devon South West

Lovely old pub with a games room, great food and accommodation.

If you like traditional pubs, thatched cottages, and a really warm welcome from Mark and Teresa, your hosts, then look no further than the New Inn. You feel the warmth immediately you walk through the door. As you walk round to the bar you are greeted by “Captain” the parrot who is the longest serving resident at 40 years old. Being freehold, with no ties to any particular brewery, there is a wide choice of beers, ales and ciders and they're all excellent. The food is traditional country pub and is cooked and prepared by Mark and Teresa who do an absolutely amazing job. In my opinion the food being of excellent quality. Although I haven't stayed in any of the rooms I do know that they were all refurbished very recently and having spoken to people that have stayed the comments have always being excellent. Mark and Teresa always take time to try and chat with their customers and make them feel welcome. If you have any particular requests then they will always do their best to accommodate if at all possible. Another welcoming aspect is that they are pet friendly even having dog biscuits on the bar, free to their customers. A testament to their welcoming approach is the number of people from the local area that visit time after time. The impressive thing is that Mark and Teresa always manage to remember each individual's name. I can't recommend this wonderful, ancient, traditional thatched pub, highly enough. You won't be disappointed.
