The best restaurants in East Dart South Hams South West

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!

Didn't eat but just a pint and a couple of glasses of wine on Sunday afternoon . Excellent friendly service with a warm firepit welcome. Good atmosphere with quite a few patrons. Delicious free sausage rolls on the bar. Treat yourself .GO

Fantastic village pub, very welcoming.

Good location, no issues with parking, lovely atmosphere, great service and incredible food. A+++ 👍

We are currently into about 2 months of a 3 month adventure from Australia to the Mediterranean, Europe and the UK and have numerous lovely meals. We have enjoyed meals on our cruise and lovely meals on our Coach tour however the best meals have been today down at the River Shack. Breakfast and Dinner tonight have been truly the best meals so far. Great work Mark. And the best coffee Sarah.

We were staying in Totnes and decided to go for a dog walk for a pub lunch. It took about 1 and 1/2 hrs along a metalled road so no traffic. We were made very welcome from the moment we entered with our 2 dogs. We ordered our drinks and then our food. The food was absolutely lovely. We had another drink and had a chat with the landlady, and our dogs made friends with their basset hound. Well worth a visit and we will definitely be returning when we are in Totnes next.

We had supper at the recently opened Circa in lovely Totnes last night… brilliant in every way… they encourage you to have sharing plates which works well… the food is superb and save room for the unusual fudge desert… all the staff were great!…I highly recommend this great new addition to Totnes!

Lovely little village pub very friendly good service and good food There is a car park right opposite the pub which is handy We will definitely be calling in there again

Popped in one lunchtime to check it out & book a table for the evening however weren’t impressed with the reception despite there only being two other people in. We followed three other people in with their dogs who also waited as we did but there was no one behind the bar although there was a man talking to the couple at a table. No communication came from this person at all so we all walked out! The atmosphere was somewhat depressing!
