The best restaurants serving British food in South West

I've been coming on-and-off to this pub for many years. Visited again for a quick drink last October, but due to being distracted when entering the pub, I failed to see that I had to register my car (and nobody informed me to do this at the bar). This led to me getting sent a massive parking fine through the post months later, which i have no choice but to pay due to the appeal process timing out. The pub tried to help but couldn't. This is what is wrong with modern life - you can't visit a pub for a quick drink without getting sucker-punched by a private car parking company, stealing your hard-earned money off you. I'm never going to go back to the Jolly Sailor for this very reason. You've lost a customer. Will go elsewhere!

The service was a little slow as there only seemed to be one waitress on duty but she did her best and was friendly and helpful. The food was good, simple but well cooked, tasty and generous portions.

Very tastefully renovated rural pub, with a really good kitchen. Rooms are huge and comfortable. Setting is gorgeous rural England And it's minutes from Bristol Airport

No food apart from bread rolls.

Not to be missed, this pub restaurant is fabulous. I’m of the understanding that it is under new ownership. The food is delicious and well cooked and presented. The chef here has a good eye for detail. Even the children’s food is freshly cooked and the sizes are proportionate. There is a great children’s play area outside with lots of activities for them to enjoy. I played naughts and crosses there with my son. It is located on the road between Sidmouth and Exmouth and well signposted. It’s about 10 minutes drive from the M5 junction at Exeter. It’s also good value for money and a great for families.

£3.40 for a 330ml can of diet coke. Make up your own mind. Won't be going there again!

Well cooked good quality food. Pleasant, comfortable surroundings. Good range on the menu. Not pretentious, only the things you look for in a pub lunch.

It's a proper pub. Decent beer,decent food, no frills, sensible prices

Wow , an hidden gem hidden in plain site

Wonderful well cooked food with a good choice of dishes and they are dog friendly too. In fact the dog was thinking of staying the way he was looked after. Had a great night

Em (A) was amazing, steaks lush. yum!!

Breakfast today, food terrible, cleanliness terrible, decoration terrible, booked table not reserved when we arrived told to find our own, found human hair on supposedly clean plates.

Absolute worst shopping experience I’ve ever had in my life ! Staff had absolutely no knowledge of what I was buying and argued with me when it was blatantly obvious that I knew a lot more about the item I bought than she did! So disgusted with the attitude I took the Radley handbag back for a full refund and will buy one somewhere else! Will not be buying anything else in there again ever!

Thought this place had been closed but was open. Went in for drinks to be told sternly you can only drink in the bar area! I had coffee so ventured to the coffee machine and was told to make it quick then come back to the bar as that area was for diners only. The place was empty. Staff attitude to all the customers we saw in there was awful. Not surprised if it does close or is closing, paying customers should be treated with respect.

Had the best Sunday roast we have had for a long time, food was delicious. Roast pork with all the trimmings including crackling & huge Yorkshire puds, cooked perfectly and leaving no room for desserts. Staff are always friendly and helpful but Tasha & George were absolutely great and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back!
