The best restaurants in Ambrook Teignbridge South West

I did a review nearly a year ago and don't know why we haven't been back sooner. We had a delicious Sunday roast today and shared a gorgeous Strawberry Cheese cake. Extremely good value meal and the Dartmoor Legend a good price too. The place is spotless the staff are attentive I would highly recommend the Rising Sun.

Andrea and Paul are delightful people. We visited for Afternoon Tea. Celebrating my husband's 18 th Birthday. He is a leap year. The food was lovely . Sandwiches, cookies, scones jam and cream, and fairy cakes decorated with littles 18 decorated triangles. Well Worth a visit.

Loved our time at the cat cafe, staff was very friendly

Great food.friendly welcome.This family run pub serves amazing food and is an absolute must visit when nearby. Many thanks

All very nice, really good food and service.

This lovely pub has it all , fabulous food excellent hosts and staff and always a friendly welcome. Very dog friendly in the bar and always treats for them offered. The lunchtime menu is a real winner for us, all the favourites in lunchtime portions for under £10! This pub is special, happy days!

We walked through the village into this cosy, charming pub. We'd phoned an hour earlier, and could only get a table for 6pm as it was fully booked on a Tuesday evening. The host was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a good table, so could look out at the pub and it's characterful decor. The pies were superb. I had chicken and mushroom. The icecream dessert was excellent.

What a great tradditional Inn. 800yrs of history and character. Superb location, albeit down a few country lanes. All bedrooms with ensuite. Spacious and comfy. Fully loaded pub with snooker room, and darts room, bar and lounge and quiet reading snug type lounge. Large dinning room with breakfast bar. Large beer garden. Fully operational commercial kitchen. Stock your own bar and music player that feeds music to all areas. We had 20 family members in our group and all enjoyed the facilities. Would recommend to others who want a family holiday. We all did our own sightseeing in the daytime and came home to the pub to eat as a family and enjoy pub type nightime, with games, music, chat and a drink. Awesome!! Lastly, great and friendly host, always on hand if needed, but allowed you to enjoy the facilities. Superb !!

We come to Broadhempston on holiday each year and every time we visit the Monks Retreat for dinner. Sadly this experience was not a good one. We had a lovely waitress and ordered our meal, I ordered the sirloin steak as it was the last steak available and it was inedible. This was not the issue, why ask your staff to check if our food is ok, if when told no the steak is not ok, they do nothing? We were then left without being asked if we would like dessert and not even an apology offered. Such a shame that the staff seem to spend all their time sat on their phones rather than caring for their customers.

Wonderful friendly, dog friendly pub! Excellent food and service!

Lovely old pub available for large parties to rent for a week. Facilities are fantastic, you get the bar, social spaces and lots of high quality bedrooms. All bedrooms are top notch with a TV and very modern bathroom. It is in a rural location so be prepared for the roads! Overall highly recommended!

Lovely food, classic pub grub but done well and reasonably priced. Liver was excellently cooked, slightly pink and soft and packed full of flavour. Service was good, we were checked back on, meals came promptly and cleared when finished. Nice cold wine and kids meals substantial for the price! Only marked down one star as bar is always busy (not a bad thing), but just makes it sometimes awkward leaning over drinkers to order food. However, always highly recommended for both food and drinks.
