The best restaurants in Central Town North Devon South West

The epitome of a Tea Room, leaf tea, China cups, plus excellent tea shop food. If you are in Barnstaple, ignore all the “coffee houses”, make your way to this Tea Room. Excellent service, good food, all at a reasonable price. We cannot recommend it more.

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.

Comfortable surroundings, friendly staff, excellent menu, good prices. I had delicious Eggs Benedict- perfectly cooked and served up on two hash browns. This is my favourite place to eat in Barnstaple.

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.

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.

Honestly the best breakfast in town 💯 been there for a fry up and had there homemade veggie chill nachos. Staff are so friendly and food cooked to perfection 👌

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!

Top marks here, staff very welcoming and well informed once asked for details about the menu and up coming events, the menu is well balanced and has something to suit everyone’s pallet, I ate a the plant bar plate which was delicious everything tasted fresh and well made. I really enjoyed it. We will be back

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.

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.
