The best restaurants in Bovey Teignbridge South West

We've just returned from a 2 night stay at the Cromwell arms. We were visiting friends and it happened to be the Green Man Festival on on the Saturday and it was a lovely thing to see. We had the family room right upstairs in the eaves. We had a meal in there with our friends on the Saturday evening all went for the Ribeye steak at £23.95 we thought what a bargain well what can we say absolutely delicious so tasty we went for the port and stilton sauce and if I was forced to say anything that you would change I would say the sauce could've been thicker very runny but don't let that put you off it was delicious. We also had breakfast in the hotel and one thing we were really impressed with it was piping piping hot so much so you could see the steam coming off the breakfasts. Very friendly and accommodating staff and we would definitely stay here again love love loved it

Delicious food served quick snd efficiently Very friendly service would highly recommend

Breakfast Bun with a friend at the Southbank. The bun was cold (frozen) in the middle, the sausage and tomato, even though it had been in the microwave. Afterwards felt a sickly taste in the mouth and gurgling stomach - probably was laced with sugar or artificial additives. Highly unhealthy. The lady who served us was rude short and nasty, why I have no idea. Views were very nice as always.

We have been using this place for take aways for over 10 years although not so much recently after celebrating our anniversary! We decided to eat in and the food was very good with no 'after effects'. However, I was very disappointed with the loo which felt tired and in need of decoration... the door was filthy from years of use and a simple coat of paint would have gone a long way! It's all in the detail... we won't eat in again.

Terrible terrible food. Didn't have the Chinese as it wasnt a proper takeaway for this type of food as no hobs going to cook fresh food so assumed it was all frozen and microwaved as I couldn’t even smell the hint of Chinese food so I opted for a portion of chips a couple of sausages and the Chinese part of the meal with some curry sauce. Took a long time to come as they were having a small discrepancy with a customer! food was handled without any type of quality control i.e. sausages being handled alongside fish in the same hands with no gloves or even washing between handling of different foods so it’s good job I didn’t have a fish allergy Food wasn’t that wonderful although the sausages were hot, but even my dog turned them down and the curry sauce well that’s the most disgusting curry sauce I’ve tasted in my life didn’t taste anything like a curry sauce. It looked like barbecue sauce but didn’t taste like barbecue sauce either and after checking which I should’ve done first, but I was hungry at the time it’s got a one star with some really bad points on the food hygiene. This place is a food poisoning waiting to happen but to play devils advocate why the council is allowing it to stay open as another point.

Omg .. first time last time .. This has to be the worst meals I've ever had .. soggy crispy squid ..some strange tasting prawn burn toasty thingy.. hard ruff over cooked ribs .. greasy chicken balls ..never again would I touch this food . Every time I go to the spar next door I will look at this place with great distain

Not for me. Dirty cutlery, grubby and cheap.
