The best restaurants serving British food in Mid Devon South West

We ate here on a miserable Tuesday night with our daughter. The fire was burning, the staff were friendly and professional, the food was delicious and a wonderful time was had by all. Heartily recommend the steak and ale pie!

Popped in with the dog for a cream tea after a walk by the canal having time to kill before going to Tiverton Parkway. Just want we wanted. Scones were warmed without asking, additional butter provided with no extra charge. Nice friendly greeting as we entered. Would definitely come back again. The dog enjoyed the doggy ice cream too!

Great service, quirky decor, affordable good food (I had home made beef, guiness and stilton pie) from their extensive menu, served promptly, recommended.

Wonderful lunch served by excellent staff. Claire (owner) oversees the service with a keen eye. No need to worry as it’s all super.

Ordinarily the vegetarian options on previous visits have been great but this time was really disappointing and extremely pricey at that - paid £15 for one very small portobello mushroom, compared to near enough the same price for a chicken curry (with small pieces of meat), and a vegetable tagine that was heavier on the couscous than the veg. The staff are friendly enough and the place is lovely. Although it was a cold Autumnal evening and they wouldn't put the fire on, so didn't feel particularly cosy. Desserts at £8 a pop were over priced too.

Really disappointed that their food hygiene rating has been 1 out of 5 for quite a while now. Myself and our other family members used to go here a lot until we saw the hygiene rating as we like the place and the people a lot. Hope they sort it soon so we can return.

Fabulous place, amazing food. Great choice of drinks and service absolutely on point. Large portions, super hot. Couldn't be faulted

My husband and I have frequented the Swan Neck cafe many times, as we walk along Tiverton canal regularly. The experience has always been fantastic - cakes, coffee, hot chocolate - top rate. However my experience today was somewhat disappointing. I paid £7.50 for the soup of the day and a roll. I was astonished to see when it arrived that it was a smallish coffee cup of soup, rather than a bowl, accompanied by a small white roll. £7.50! The soup was delicious but in my opinion it should have cost about half what was paid. I always try to support small independent businesses but I'm afraid today's experience has left me feeling rather wounded and that I have been taken advantage of. Definitely not value for money in my opinion. Sorry Swan Neck but you've got it wrong on this one.

Lovely peaceful spot, canal barge tea rooms friendly lad served us in period canal costume. In fact all the staff were dressed in person canal costume which added to the wonderful atmosphere.

We called in for something to eat but it cost us over sixteen pounds for two coffees and two bland cakes you could go to bridge house just up the road and for another three pounds you can have two large coffees with two large snacks ,etc, Welsh rarebit with masses of gammon .the decor does not suit the bakery though I suppose that's what you are paying for but l for one do not like being ripped off,why calling a bakery when you can't buy any bread or cakes as you have to order it days in advance and there isn't any thing on display in the window. They are trying to be an upmarket cafe in the wrong place.we won't bother going there again ,rather go up the road ., at least we won't be ripped off.

Stopping at a local B&B, they recommended 👌 this pub for an evening meal and they were spit on. Friendly, efficient, polite and helpful staff, very clean, great food and an excellent beer. Highly recommended.

Popped in on a break from work for a spot of lunch ordered the big breakfast £6.25 which I feel is great value for money out came large plate looking amazing with 2 sausage 2 bacon 2 eggs lots of juicy baked beans mushrooms 2 halves of grilled tomato and 2 hash browns and a side plate with two slices of buttered toast!! All for £6.25 (puts their neighbours Wetherspoons to shame) and a mug of delicious filter coffee for an Extra £1.80 bargain food was delicious. This wasn't the biggest breakfast on their menu (I usually go big but trying to be healthy) I am stuffed after that one!! I will certainly be returning here Note: it is cash or bank transfer only payment accepted

The accommodation is excellent.Ben & Claudine we're great hosts.food in pub really nice.all areas are dog friendly and there's no extra charge for dogs. The breakfast tray in the room was a very nice touché will be back Kath & Nobby

I visited this tea room whilst waiting for my bus to Umberleigh. After travelling from Preston, Lancashire I was happy to be able to relax with a coffee. The staff were really friendly and the place had a great vibe. City life can be a bit hectic so it was refreshing to visit this little tea room and we were even tempted with cake which was delicious!
