The best restaurants serving British food in Ottery St Mary Town East Devon South West

Robin is a man, a man of seemingly average stature upon first inspection, but after sharing just a few moments with him, it becomes clear he is no man, but a god. Thank you Robin for having us, we talk about you every few days.

Questa mattina ci siamo fermati davanti a questo locale attirati dall'insegna, che lo spaccia per sala da tè. In realtà attualmente è un negozio di ninnoli e teiere gestito da una anziana e simpatica signora molto in gamba che ha adibito una sola piccola stanza (in vetrina) alla ristorazione con solo tre tavolinetti apparecchiati. La signora ha pronte due o tre torte da accompagnare a una tazza di tè. Dopo qualche minuto sono arrivate quattro amiche inglesi molto anziane ma assai in gamba a prendere il tè e a fare conversazione. Un bellissimo contesto inglese di altri tempi, ormai sempre più raro. Ottimi l'earl grey tea e la ciambella al caramello salato. Ero ospite e non ho pagato il conto ma non credo che fosse eccessivo.

We enjoyed our night at this well run, clean and friendly hotel. The three course evening meal was freshly prepared and delicious. Our room was spotless and well presented. We both are surprised this is only a two star rated hotel, as our experience exceeded many four stars we’ve stayed in. Our breakfast was again delicious. The staff are all attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. It has ample parking and a beautiful rear garden with seating. If we are in the region again, we would wholeheartedly head for The Tumbling Weir, Thank~you

Friendly and helpful staff, nice atmosphere, great selection of drinks, cosy seating. We will definitely be coming back to this lovely pub.
