The best restaurants in Kenn Valley Teignbridge South West

What an unexpectedly lovely stay I had here this weekend! The rooms were so reasonably priced, I was braced for low standards to match, but was amazed to find my accommodation was spotlessly clean and tidy, and everything worked. But the food! The food! My dinner was delicious, perfectly cooked, and very reasonably priced. And it was only a taste of things to come, for the breakfast was one of the best Full Englishes I have had anywhere. On top of that, the owner and staff are very friendly, and at the price, I don't know what more one can ask for.

Haldon Forest is a great location for walks or cycling (non-cyclists and drivers look out for wayward bike riders) and afterwards for a breakfast or lunch at The Ridge Café. We all wish though that some more of the lunchtime meal offerings were available earlier, at least from 10ish. Would this really be a problem? The staff though are great, very cheerful and keen to help even when they are understaffed at the counter. If you’re planning to visit, just check the internet, maybe under Forestry England, for events, which seem to be on the increase, as it can get very very busy.

Worst breakfast I ever had in macdonalds ! staff to busy chatting awful food

Everything about Brightside (as it’s now called) is just really good: there’s an extensive range of food freshly cooked to order, the decor is bright and sunny and all the staff we met were very friendly and most helpful, It was a pleasure throughout and we look forward to returning. Highly recommended.

Very limited selection of cakes when we visited but what we had were nice. Lovely old building off the courtyard

A random pop-in following a recommendation, I got the bus from Exeter on a Friday lunchtime and enjoyed the best sausage and mash you could wish for. It came with a whole host of vegetables. Most impressive, and many thanks.

Met up with some friends for lunch we were glad to have been able to sit out in the garden as inside was very gloomy and uninviting and hasnt changed in years I ordered a pint of soda water with ice and was totally shocked to be charged £2.30 for it !!! I never get charged in central Exeter or other places for soda water, and when I questioned, it I was told "well we have to pay for it." I had a cheese,onion, and tomato sandwich with granary bread. The cheese had absolutely no flavour, so it was probably the mildest there was and was just like eating pure fat along with whatever spread had been used it definitely wasn't butter ! Bread was ok and a tiny bit of salad and some very strange totilla chips .We asked for some mayonnaise, but even that was really tasteless and obviously a cheap variety The lady serving us was very pleasant and attentive, but sadly, it's definitely not a venue. I will be rushing back anytime soon

This is without doubt one of the worst MacDonald's sites. Every time I have visited this place the service is appalling. "we are waiting for eggs!" at 8.00 in the morning with 20+ customers standing around. What - eggs.... at breakfast time? who'd have thought you would need an almost constant supply of those ready!! it doesn't take 20 minutes to cook a few eggs. An absolute Joke.
