The best restaurants serving British food in South West

If your hungry then this is the place to go with a great selection of food and drink. with a car park just across the road ...

Visited today for Sunday lunch. Carpark wasn't busy at 12.45 inside was also quiet. We had booked and several tables did say reserved. Order 2 roasts, a Korean burger and a kids burger. Food was all ok. Roasts were very good. Burger plates weren't dressed which was a bit odd, no garnish. We order two cherry waffle sundaes, strawberry kids ice-cream sundae and a crumble. Puds were good however the cherry waffle Sunday came in a half filled sundae dish. Made it look like they had forgotten the rest of the dessert. A smaller dish would have been better. Only downside of the visit was the waitress pushing upon us her request for a tip. She mentioned we could tip on a separate device which she was waving at us, three times during our payment process. For that very reason we didn't tip at all. We would have done had it not been almost made to feel it wasn't optional.

My wife & I had booked this to pay a visit before the boxing last Saturday. The booking said it would open at 5pm so we turned up at 6:10pm to be told it was closed! I then asked the polite ladies at the entrance if it was really only open for 1 hour that night and they laughed and said yes. All a bit of a waste of time for 1 hour! Don’t bother wasting your time.

Typical National Trust Cafe with seating inside and out, the usual fare and nearby toilets and car park. Suggest NT ensure all staff behind the counter are dressed properly.

No pierda su dinero o tiempo en este lugar de frente a la comida con mantequilla era absolutamente repugnante el personal no saben lo que están haciendo señora que asumo que fue gerente tan grosero con nosotros y para colmo mientras estábamos esperando en el mostrador podía escuchar al chef gritar tan poco profesional nunca volvería.

This is a hotel restaurant. The dining area is very large and sparsely decorated. The menu is small but adequate. The food was very good. There is a bar on site with lovely seating areas outside or comfortable tables inside with big windows. Hotel guests will enjoy all of the restaurant and bar services.

Disappointing breakfast. Ordered poached eggs on toast. One piece of unbuttered bread with 2 small overcooked eggs. The eggs were cooked in vinegar and the toast tasted of vinegar. Nearly £8!

Gone are the lovely personal interactions there were when placing one's order, now just a tepid cup of machine made with a plastic (environment?) pot of long life milk. Not an improvement to a fave local haunt.

Visited today with my wife Lovely meal of cod and chips and a curry sauce Two teas to round off a wonderful meal Fish batter was lovely and crispy, lovely white flakes of fish, chips lovely and fluffy in middle and crispy on outside Will definitely be calling in again whilst on holiday Highly recommended

Great service ,very welcoming and felt very comfortable Rhys was great at attending to all our needs. Loved my kebab ,chicken was so tender The pie was great 👍

We used to really enjoy the cafe and food at Stewarts and I hate to say this but, in my opinion, it has gone down hill a bit recently. I had what was supposed to be a smashed avocado, tomato and lettuce sandwich. The avocado was not smashed, it was sliced, hard and not very pleasant at all. There were huge slices of tomato in the sandwich which had to be taken out and eaten with a knife and fork. The fries were quite delicious though and the best thing about the meal. My husband had a ploughmans which he said was ok but the bread was very dry and it didn’t come with butter. Also the ham was very chewy. I feel that the presentation and finishing touches of the food, needs a little bit of attention.

Utterly hopeless, so slow to serve. And then no tables to sit at. Would not bother again, the menu optiins also very poor. For Waitrose the market leader they seriously need to up their game in the Cafe. The store is great as are the staff

Booked the Lugger Inn for Sunday carvery. From the first minute staff were friendly and helpful. Was shown to the carvery within 5 minutes. There was 4 choices of meats and lots of choice of vegetables. Which was all excellent. Price was also very good at £14.95. Was advised you can go up as many times as you want , but 1 plate full was more than enough. Would highly recommend.

My daughter and I booked dinner at The Olive Tree Restaurant in The Durrant House Hotel in Bideford. When we arrived the restaurant was very busy and our table was in the bar instead, which suited us both better to be honest. We were served by John-Paul for the whole time we were there and he was so friendly and helpful and we cannot speak highly enough about him. Nothing was too much trouble and he kept us informed about each course while we were there. We both ate from the Specials Menu which was dinner and dessert for £14.50. Our roast dinners were delicious and so were our puddings. We had a great time and will definitely be booking again very soon.

What a lovely spot. Beautiful garden on a beautiful day but I’m sure it’s a great bar when it’s chilly or wintery. I gather this has just changed hands but what good hands they passed to. We all had a different pint. Every one was immaculate. This is a pub of the highest order. We didn’t eat, so I can’t vouch for that. A great place to start or finish a walk. Thoroughly recommend.
