The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Late but they made the delivery and gave us a big ice cream as goodwill. Food was hot and delicious and I understood they were extremely busy. Happy with food and service

We “just” drank a beer here. The service was super nice and helpful with the beer selection.

Wow.......what a very disappointing lunchtime visit! Haven't been here since it's been refurbed. The old restaurant had a great selection of meals, snacks, cakes, etc. This time, it was a variation on a meat theme. We went fairly safe, ordering the nachos. Paid for the 'add on' smoked chicken, expecting it to be tander chicken breast. Instead, it was a fatty, bitty mess which neither of us could eat. Like my wife said, it looked like the titbits you might scrape into the cat's dish after a roast dinner! It was only when the bill came, we saw that we'd been served chicken thigh. Had it said that on the menu, we would have avoided it in the first place. Regards atmosphere.......well apart from the same great views.....there was none! We ate at 1pm and our table for two was 1 of only 5 occupied. When I last visited here, the place would have been rammed at that time of day, which says a lot. Our waitress was pleasant enough but seemed to be just going through the motions, not engaging with us at all. The final insult was getting the bill to see that we'd been charged service charge........ ..yes.......our table for 2! We won't be returning and I wouldn't recommend it. Shame that the new owners felt compelled to change what didn't need changed.

My family and I just had a lovely lunch at the village inn! The food is amazing , i had the veggie dog and the pretzel bun is to die for! The lady that served us was very friendly and welcoming - thank you!!

Delicious food, mid-range price wise. Staff went above and beyond, made us feel very welcome - very dog-friendly so definitely worth a visit if you are staying on or close to Devon Hills Holiday Park.

Had a very nice meal here, celebrating a birthday. It was a blessing to find a restaurant that wasn't enforcing a Christmas menu and music. Not being local we had no knowledge of the area, so this was a pleasant surprise. We had a great time, the staff were friendly and helpful and we didn't feel rushed to vacate our table. The food was great and good value. Very happy with the overall experience and will be booking again.

First time using this chip shop and I must say it was delicious !! So much better than the seafront kiosks in Lyme Regis !! Lovely fish cake & chips, the chips are proper chip shop chips !

Stayed locally and thought we'd give this little gem a try! We are so glad that we did, we came back the following night. Fantastic food and drinks, amazing service and dog friendly. We will definitely be back again

This place is chronically understaffed with the lovely people working there flat out to serve everyone. The person serving didn't make eye contact or say she'd be with us soon, she was too stressed out. I waited a *long* time to be served even once I'd reached the front of the queue. Not the staffs fault - needs to be more of them!

Turned up at 20:40 on a Friday evening and the kitchen was already being cleaned and refused to make food. Menu said food served until 9pm. Not good as based our night around this, and the whole of downstairs was full so it was not quiet.

Had the original chicken cornish pasty. Lovely flavour. Very filling. Great all round.

This is NOT a restaurant but a self catering unit

It's a nice looking cafe, the coffee was good, the staff were friendly and kept apologising for how busy it was. Really enjoyed going there and would come back. It now seems we are also going to buy a lamp which was not something I planned when I came in.

Not the first time I have been for lunch at the Pelican and it won't be the last. This pub is amazing and the menu choice has something for everyone. I've visited several times with friends and family and have always had a really good meal here. The staff are really helpful and if you are a dog owner this pub is dog friendly.
