The best restaurants in Teignbridge South West

Went for just a milkshake, they were absolutely tiny and mostly cream, not very nice and quite expensive. Staff weren’t very friendly and seemed miserable considering they only just opened. Very disappointed won’t be visiting again!

Really gone downhill lately. Customer service is pretty much non existent with some staff. Shame some staff left because it was run really well before. Won’t be using anymore.

It is the worst rated Chinese takeaway in town, but I have to say some food that I had was actually pretty good and authentic. Good: egg foo young and chow mein. The meat was tender and juicy. Eggs were fluffy. Noodles were thin, crinkly, and saucy. Bad: fried chicken wings and fried rice.

Love Market House Fish n Chips, so sad what’s happened to them and I can’t wait to order from them once they are back up and running 👍👍

Food is value for money Always have a pleasant experience Helpful staff Lovely views Just get the coffee better please Bit weak!!

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.

Six of us went to lunch at the Swan’s Nest and all chose from the a la carte menu. Service for both drinks and the meal was very good and the food was enjoyed by all.

Top quality food and service, pricey but as they say "you get what you pay for" and we certainly did - worth every penny. Food ingredients were obviously first class locally sourced from the sausage roll to the coffees, from the milkshakes to the fries - homemade mayo, nice touch! Service excellent from young staff and old and immaculate surroundings and deco. Feedback from ladies toilet - could have a better quality soap to keep up with the other exceptionally high standards! Thanks very much.

Sorry to say the service levels are not what they used to be. A welcoming smile would be nice.

We came for Sunday carvery when we visited Dawlish. The food was good, although the beef was a bit chewy. The Yorkshire puddings were huge. Service was quick and friendly and the Covid-19 set up was good. We would return if we came back to the area.

Met up with family as we had come down to visit. We were very surprised 😯 with the sloop, being a hungry horse we are used to them being noisy and dirty. We were so surprised and we were allowed to take our 🐶 in. The staff were lovely and most importantly so was the food.

We used to enjoy the lunches here, unfortunately my fish and chips were inedible, with a burnt lemon wedge, tartare sauce awful, soggy batter and watery fish. The chips were very dry. Also the ham was dried out and chips dry on the ham egg and chips. The coffees were lovely, just not worth the £40 it cost. On the plus side the staff were lovely but too busy to run the place properly.

Service has been fantastic, I joined my family for a few days over the past week and James has been an amazing host - chatty, accommodating and outright friendly. Had food one evening, wouldn't necessarily recommend the ribs, but for drinks and socialising The Retreat is a great place to go! Will be returning! Adam from Bristol (3 dogs)

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.

I went to the grange for a nice Sunday roast with my family and most of us came back sad disappointed and a bit angry. The potatoes were hard and what seems to be Stale the vegetables were near inedible. I will say the meat was really nice but what really made us all sad and disappointed the kitchen staff were really rude. Other than young lady on the till a couple others. Safe to say I won’t be going back in a rush and definitely will not recommend to others.
