The best restaurants serving British food in North Devon South West

We booked an overnight stay at the Sandy Cove hotel and evening meal at the Seacliff restaurant within. Bookings were made online, which was simple, and replies were received. We also received a call from the restaurant enquiring if there were any particular dietary requirements. The meal was an eight course tasting menu, which differed very slightly from the online sample menu, but in our opinion, it was better featuring some of our favourite ingredients. Each course was well presented, introduced by a very attentive waitress, and very enjoyable with some amazing flavours and combinations. The chef took time to introduce himself after the meal, and we had the pleasure of complementing him on a well-balanced menu. The wine list is quite extensive to suit most if not all tastes. Many thanks for a very enjoyable meal and overnight stay.

Lovely place and great food & friendly staff

Quite empty tbh and although service was excellent, just felt like a motorway service station

Fantastic historic atmosphere First class pint of Proper Job Fabulous value Cambodian chicken curry Highly recommended!

Always go here when on holiday either for a pasty or lovely and addictive chocolates

Amazing!! Best service and as a coeliac I am always looked after. Dan, Harry and the team are brilliant. We go every time we visit Croyde. My husband had the steak and chips and I had the fish pie. Such a treat to find a gluten free fish pie- and it’s amazing!

Stopped here yesterday for a drink in the sunshine & decided to have lunch as the food being brought out looked nice. We got a drink & sat out on the raised seating area overlooking the sea which is brilliant. We ordered 4 fish & chips which looked lovely when brought out, but we were very disappointed as the fish was tasteless & mushy when cut open. It was obviously frozen fish, not fresh which we found strange being where it was situated, along with 12 chips at £15 we thought could of been alot better. Service, staff, drinks & views brilliant, but on our experience food very disappointing.

Excellent Cornish Homelands fresh from the oven Very affordable prices To go and snack on the port pier

Wonderful fresh seafood with lots of choose including some excellent specials. The service was great, a good wine and drinks list and dog welcoming

We walked here from our B&B (Instow Barton, a fantastic place) to eat an evening meal. The pub was warm and welcoming, the staff were friendly and helpful and the menu was very good for a pub. We’re not particularly doggy people but the pub was obviously dog friendly and there were quite a few dogs but they were all well behaved. We will be staying at the Instow Barton again and we will walk to this pub again to eat.

We had Sunday lunch and it was excellent. Probably one of the best I've had. Some of our group hadturkeyand tge rest beef. It was all beautiful and the vegetables were plentiful

Location wise excellent. Unfortunately, this tired old looking pub has definitely seen better days! Need of major investment, but it would definitely be worth it. Years ago, this pub was full of customers all of the time.

Enjoyed a family meal here lovely setting food good everything cooked well, loved the art work and properly a must place to visit when in Ilfracombe

Fabulous place to eat. We ate here, twice this week, as we were visiting. Once on New Year Eve, with our friends, 8 of us the food was excellent we all so tasty and hot. We ate again this evening, the food was plentiful, tasty and beautifully presented. Staff are very friendly. Beautiful setting, gorgeous log fire.

Called in for morning coffee and young lady who served us extremely pleasant. Coffee was excellent and nice and hot. Served very quickly
