The best restaurants serving British food in Ilfracombe Central North Devon South West

Bad first (not that bad ..😆) A bit old and dated, dispite the newish tile panelling Batter was nice but a little oily on the fish (soaked into the batter) The good.. HUGE battered fish - (suggest you just get the small one) cooked perfectly Sirloin steak was tender and cooked perfectly (ordered medium) I was pleasantly surprised on the quality, as it's a basic takeaway with a restaurant attached and it was under £20, so no top steak restaurant - but kudos to the chef, best £20 steak I've had, and better than some classier $$$$ places I've been, For that £20 I also got onion rings (perfect), salad - quality greens, few cut up bits of capsicum a couple of mushrooms, tomato, fried tomato too and plenty of chips cooked perfectly and very nice. (but best chips in UK I've had is at Lochgilphead - Scotland) Constructive criticism only - I was VERY happy given the price, Way better than a lot of places I've been to so far in the UK, and would definitely eat the same dishes again. Staff were friendly... This is at the end of the tourist season too. (Oct'24)

We spent a lovely evening with a large group of friends having a meal here prior to a wedding the following day.

Fabulous service and food. The best fish and chips we have had. Freshly cooked haddock and chips, delicious and a good price.

A great location. But Expensive! The most expensive bar in Ilfracombe that we visited. A big hotel/bar. The locals have a discount card for cheaper drinks, so when we visited mid week, we felt a little cheated over the prices, especially when the bars are dead on a September evening. The locals are friendly, but you can feel that you aren't part of the gang when visiting in the evening. We didn't try the food.

This pub is a gem, on a five day holiday we found ourselves here on varying occasions; with the kids, without the kids, just drinks and main evening meal and it came up trumps every time. All the staff we met were friendly and professional, the food was tasty, well priced and looked great, and the overall atmosphere is brilliant. We cannot recommend this pub highly enough.

Call in for a beer and snack, the place just felt tired and a bit run down. Covid protection still up all around the bar, which made it very impersonal in our view. Decided not to eat there.

Il ristorante, sala da tea del Britannia, da solo vale la gita ed il biglietto della visita. E' molto luminoso,con una doppia sala che lo rende piu' silenzioso. Servizio attento, veloce, accurato, la vista e' brutta ma comunque e' sempre piacevole mangiare sull' acqua. Incredibilmente, per essere un ristorante turistico, si mangia davvero bene. La zuppa di zucca, era vellutata e perfetta nella combinazione delle spezie ed aveva un tocco di gusto extra per l' aggiunta di semi di girasole , che aggiungevano una piacevole nota croccante. Sandwich ottimo, ma la nota di merito va, in maniera del tutto inaspettata alla maionese, soffice e perfetta di sale. Ampia scelta di dolci tipici della tradizione, eccellente, Victoria sponge cake. Prezzi bassi per il rapporto qualita'-servizio- location. Luogo perfetto per un pranzo di coppia.
