The best restaurants in South Hams South West

Popped in for Lunch whilst visiting Dartmouth and glad we found this Bistro The food was excellent and reasonably priced I had mixed seafood and it was lovely very nice place and pretty busy & we offered to shared our table with a couple of strangers and soon good chatting and having a great time, The owner appreciated us sharing the table as brought in a couple more customers who would otherwise have gone elsewhere, nice if others do the same - you never know you may get on and meet some lovely people will certainly return here the next time we go to Dartmouth

Emma provided a FABULOUS spread for 120 people following a funeral at Stoke Gabriel church. Everyone was catered for and the food was exceptional, most notably the crab cakes, samosas and scones, with jam and cream of course. Aunt and uncle have lived in the village for more than 50 years and have dined at Emma’s many times, always speaking MOST highly of the restaurant, food and Emma herself. Thank you!

We were there celebrating a friend’s birthday. Service was great, food was so good and a great atmosphere. Tried food I wouldn’t normally try and thoroughly enjoyed every dish. So much food that I was full to the brim. If I’d been charged twice what I was I wouldn’t have complained. Too busy eating to take photos so you’ll have to go skiing to see what it’s like. You will not regret eating in this restaurant, it was an amazing experience!

We’ve eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. It’s a great unspoiled country pub with friendly owners. The menu has a good variety to choose from, portions are generous and everything is reasonably priced. The service is great and nothing is too much trouble. The Sunday menu is also excellent. Thoroughly recommended. We’ll be back!

Really chill vibes, just off the high street of salcombe so you miss the manic foot traffic. Really tasty food and beer and both the owner and staff were incredibly friendly. Would recommend to anyone in Salcombe who wants to stray from the usual pasties or pub grub and eat some healthy and delicious South African food.

Billig et Rozell is an amazing little restaurant, it is in a lovely old building with great atmosphere. We had a lovely romantic evening and the Gallete with goats cheese, walnuts and honey was delicious, great for a gluten free meal out for me, my husband really enjoyed the Gallette with pesto, cheese and sundried tomatoes. The owner/chef was very friendly and helpful. You can also see your gallette being cooked. We had a great evening, would definitely recommend!

Bespoke is a great place to go to for fabulous coffees/choice of teas/wonderful hot chocolate. In addition you could treat yourself to a delicious toasted sandwich and/or one of the irresistible pastries/sweet treats. Everything is made locally, including the bakery items (bread etc). You will feel right at home in the friendly welcoming cafe - I highly recommend Bespoke.

The best sourdough pizza base and lovely veggie toppings. The vegan cheese was delicious too, it was around £14 but running costs are high these days and people have to make a living, I really enjoyed it so I think it was worth it as a lovely treat.

There's so much on offer - everything is top quality and there's a massive variety of different foods. We shop there instead of supermarkets and particularly love the hand-crafted sourdough and the organically grown vegetables and fruit. You can also get freshly made-to-order sandwiches and fabulous coffee. Then there's the deli-counter - so much to choose from and everything at its peak quality and freshness. Store cupboard and dried foods, herbs, spices, great coffees, local dairy produce. The owner is just delightful and unstinting in his excellent customer service.

Fantastic food, great menu options, friendly and welcoming staff, beautiful garden with seating, lots of activities, great atmosphere

An absolute pleasure to find this little family pizza place! In the middle of nowhere we have found it on the way from our coastal walk with kids and really enjoyed the delicious pizza as well as friendly atmosphere. Even our picky eaters have been arguing over the last slice. Would definitely be back if we ever get near that place.

Absolutely fantastic New Years Eve at Bar 1620. Wonderful cosy atmosphere, really friendly staff and great music. An extra thanks to Luke behind the bar…..what a lovely guy. Look forward to visiting again.

About time kingsbridge had decent Thai food, Ning cooked me something off menu too, their mango sticky rice is amazing. Would absolutely recommend.

A wonderful coffee stop as we were coming into Dartington. An excellent menu of hot drinks and delicious toasties that were hand made. Will come again when I’m next here.

Stopped by to pick up some carb sustenance on a long hike and, my, what a delight. Pecan-almond-slice and a flap jack, both the perfect balance between crumbly and moist - absolutely superb. We'll definitely pop over again to sample the savoury delights and more of the cake. Highly recommended!
