The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Good old fashioned English pub serving a great range of drinks and a menu to suit all tastes. Reasonably priced and excellent, friendly staff. Recommended

Sunday carvery was awful. All veg was rock hard, hardly any cheese on cauliflower, gravy was like water, so called roast potatoes were Aunt Bessies or similar, all mushy and undercooked. Only allowed one Yorkshire despite having no meat. The food wasn't hot enough. Two men serving were very unwelcoming. Overpriced for what we got. Rude reply. My friend who I was with uses your establishment a lot for the carvery and agreed it wasn't your usual standard. Think it was you having a bad day!

Always enjoy a pensioners fish and chips here. Great value and a good size portion for me complete with cup of tea. The only downside is the peas, I would prefer garden peas as I don't like mushy peas. Friendly staff.

Came across this pub by chance while viewing houses in the area. Amazing food with brilliant atmosphere and friendly service. We now check how far it is away from the houses we are viewing as we are determined to make it our regular!!

I absolutely loved my stay from start to finish, it was just me and the dog. Warm welcome, from reception, swift check in and showed up to my room. I was in the Library room which was so big, spotlessly clean, and a lovely big cozy bed. For a Tuesday night the bar was busy which is always great to see, I sat with two lovely gents on one of the long tables. Great wine selection, and tasty menu and I opted for the Miso Cod, which was absolutely delicious, massive chunky Cod portion with perfectly cooked crushed potatoes and tenderstem brocoli, i could literally eat that dinner every evening. Early night for me, the room is above the bar and you can hear every word spoken below, however as service ended so did any noises and I slept peacefully. Again great variety at breakfast and warm welcome, I would love to return.

Only went for a drink with 1 friend.

Sunday lunch was delicious (Nut Roast, Beef and Turkey options). Dessert was a treat (Coffee and Cherry cake and Brownie Sundae both good). Service was great. Highly recommended.

A lovely meal with very friendly service from Bee and a very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. There is a pub attached to the restaurant if you're looking to extend your stay. Reasonable prices and a good menu.

Stopped in for the Sunday carvery today having not been here for a while (decades!). Can’t fault it. The staff were beyond nice and very welcoming to my Labrador too. The carvery was great - no scrimping on the meat here - wow! ALL the trimmings, great value for money and delicious. Served by really friendly and helpful staff too. Won’t leave it decades before I go back that’s for sure.

Our new favourite dining place. Lovely people, great atmosphere and food just perfect.

Nice enough room but no one turned up for breakfast. Waited for an hour in empty pub, gave up and left.

Many thanks to Heather and her team for their hospitality, a good time had by all, and fantastic food ! Dorian

Handy pub on the main street in Newton Abbot. The Wifi was not working when I was there.

Waited over 1.5 hours with a child for cold food, they have a cheek to call themselves a restaurant. Get fish and chips from a takeaway instead

A pub/Chinese restaurant with lots more, food is top notch and beer garden is amazing, had our wedding reception in the function room and it couldn't have been done better, eight stars from me.
