The best restaurants in Central Town North Devon South West

We wanted to recommend this lovely cafe as not only did we get a really delicious cream tea , but the man who runs it with his wife went out of his way to accommodate us. We were on a short visit to Devon and so excited to have a cream tea - it was late in the day but he kindly put more scones in the oven and allowed us to stay on after he should have closed! So we had warm scones with all the trimmings. He also had a selection of home made cakes so we were able to take those with us . Huge thanks to him for his kindness and to his wife who is obviously a superb baker !

Just amazing! Went for lunch on Saturday with my partner and my parents and the food was absolutely delicious. We were running late and that wasn’t a problem at all. Really busy and a great atmosphere. Best curry I’ve had and it’s so refreshing to have somewhere in the south west like it. Great service and will absolutely be back again! Great value for money and massive portions. And you’re not rushed at all. Nice and laid back. It’s a yes from us!

We visited this wonderful place whilst on holiday and it’s absolutely stunning. I loved the detailed decor and the vibe. The food is all made freshly on site. We had cake and coffee and my son had the vegan beans and sausage on toast and it’s safe to say we have all devoured our food.

Had a lovely stop mid-mooch in Barnstaple for a cuppa & cake. Owner was friendly & helpful, giving good recommendations on which treats to pick. Took some pics for us which was appreciated. Cakes were delicious!

Really fancied a coffee and a sandwich, saw this place and went in. It’s an arty cafe run by a local family who were very welcoming. It’s tastefully decorated with good background music which gave a really relaxed vibe to the place. The coffee was extremely good and the smoked cheese and red onion was mouth watering. I certainly will be returning when in Barnstable.

Stopped here for a coffee to go instead of visiting a chain, one of them best coffees I’ve ever had!! Will be back to visit when I’m back in Devon!

We came to Craftys with a group of friends and had a thoroughly great evening. The food & wine was exceptional and the service was the perfect mix of friendliness and professional. Very highly recommended.

Had the best cup of coffee to be found in Barnstaple while my daughter had her skateboard refurbished. Friendly owner and just how a local business should be!

Warm welcome, clean, pleasant surroundings and delicious food - a great experience all round! Our first visit today, won’t be our last 🙂

Me and mum had a takeaway from these guys and it was out of this world. The lobster was so fresh and the salad was dressed beautifully with flowers. Was amazing with champagne. Highly recommend to all my friends and family and will be ordering again ☺️

Visited today with an old friend and cannot recommend this place highly enough. Lovely bright decor, relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the coffee is without doubt the best in Barnstaple. Stuart knows his craft and his coffee is the best I've tasted in years.

We recently discovered The Plant Bar Café, and it’s such a gem! The food is absolutely delicious—I tried the Buddha Bowl, which was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. They also have a fantastic variety of lattes, each more tempting than the last! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff. Plus, it's dog-friendly, which is a huge bonus! Overall, it is a perfect spot for a relaxing and enjoyable meal. Highly recommend! 🌿🐾

From ordering, collection and sat down enjoying a lovely roast diner within 25 mins. Easy to order via messenger, meals were being prepared on arrival and final decision on parsnips was agreed and home we went. Very pleasant and welcoming staff. A very homely atmosphere in this small but well laid out venue. The beef and turkey was excellent, great choice of vegetables (cauliflower cheese was really tasty), pigs in blankets, homemade stuffing, good roast potatoes and a very well made gravy. Well packaged with no leaks. Still hot and a decent plate size. Really worth a visit to eat in or takeaway and by no means expensive.

Great food fun locally and ethically sourced suppliers, prepared by someone who so obviously has poured their heart and soul into a great little stop. Excellent knowledge of every aspect of the menu, ingredients and suppliers I can't recommend this place for a setup wether is for a coffee and cake or a very decent lunch.
