The best restaurants in Ilfracombe Central North Devon South West

Popped in to get the little one a kids meal and a snack for us before walking back to our campsite but after looking at the menu we decided to get burgers each also. Fab customer service, both the guys inside were lovely and the food was amazing. We could have waited and taken it away, or popped in to the pub across the road or down the road - which they even walked down for you! We were really impressed with the food, it was tasty and was of great quality. The kids meal was also great value for money and he was chuffed. If we were staying another night we would have returned again!

Whist going for a spring stroll around town we popped in for coffee and lunch , lovely to be able to sit out in the warm sunshine and eat alfresco, great coffee , husband had a bacon sausage sandwich and my daughter a ham cheese panini delicious 😋 friendly staff reasonable prices we will definitely be back

New cafe in town so just had to try it, I wasn't disappointed, best breakfast I've had in a very long time. 2 bacon, 2 sausages, 2 eggs, mushrooms, tomatoe, fried bread, beans and toast plus coffee or tea for just £9.95! Top quality bacon and sausages and the coffee they serve free with breakfast is absolutely fantastic. Thoroughly reccomended.

Great old tea room. Well worth a visit

The brownies here are so delicious especially the milky bar one and the kinder one. we would definitely come again it is a good shop for afternoon tea or drinks! Phoebe (aged 9) 🥰

We have mixed thoughts about this cafe. The food was really, really tasty, well presented, well cooked and very good value. The cafe was clean and had a good menu choice.  However, we have never visited this cafe before and we were confused by the behaviour of a man in outdoor clothing approaching each table with a dog on a lead, talking to everyone. This may have been the owner?  We felt this gentleman could have dressed more appropriately if he was working there, so that customers could identify that he was supposed to be working there?  We have no problems with dogs at all, but he could at least have washed his hands, before bringing our food to the table, to follow H&S practices...

Great spot, lovely bacon butties and seriously good coffee! We had ours to take away and sat on one of the benches right at the front, was a brilliant way to start the day!

came here for breaky with the family (8 of us) while away for the weekend. the staff were really friendly and welcoming. the food was amazing and great value for money. the cafe is a cool little place, would definitely come here again!

If you love fine dining and are in Ilfracombe this is a must visit. The Antidote is a very small restaurant owned by people who clearly love what they do. There's only 6 tables so booking is essential if you don't want to miss out (and believe me, you don't!). We had soup for starters which was delicious. I didn't take a photo as it was so delicious we just dived straight in! For mains i had the guinea fowl and my partner has the hake. Both were beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. For pudding we both had the pistachio and rose pudding. This was so light and beautifully balanced. The service was also fantastic, you weren't hurried at all and our hostess took the time to speak with us. All in all, we will be back for sure and would recommend to anyone who loves fine food. The value for money is just amazing too. A must visit!

Hotel lovely, food very nice but portions are a bit on the small side. Bit of a walk to the front. Wouldn't recommend to anyone with mobility issues as Ilfracombe very hilly.

We were looking for somewhere for lunch and came across the Capstone who were advertising their roast dinners. We were not disappointed. The server was super friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. We were seated right away, our drinks arrived quickly and our food was delicious 😋 we would definitely go back again.

Fabulous ice cream - went back three days in a row. Staff are really pleasant and friendly and the cream Is out of this world !

Sunday lunch fish and chips, one of the best fish and chips I’ve ever had Excellent service from friendly staff. Great value for money

Wonderful restaurant! Excellent food and service.

Much of the High Street is looking tired, but Johnny C’s was smart, clean and inviting. Staff were great and the food was fantastic. A gem for lunch in this town.
