The best restaurants serving British food in Dartmouth and Kingswear South Hams South West

Been here for a week and feel like I’ve known everybody for years all staff have been absolutely brilliant service has been incredible food service is fantastic big thanks to Phill as he has welcomed us none local people with open arms with great enthusiasm and recommendations of places to be around the area himself and the team are a credit to the area and I strongly recommend coming in as you will feel very welcomed

We had an evening meal as well as breakfast in the river restaurant, excellent service and food, highly recommend.

I've visited The Castle a number of times over 10 years and really enjoyed the food and drink here. But my last visit - with the hotel having been sold to St Austell brewery - has led me to leave this review. The menu has been drastically slashed to very basic options. Where once a variety of fish dishes and others were available, now it's just fish and chips, burger and little else. Extremely limited now for lunch too. It's gone from "very nice" to "fine". A good restaurant to standard pub grub. A great shame because the beer is decent and the bar very cosy and welcoming.

We stayed in Kingwear for a week, visiting Dartmouth and the surrounding area most days. This was the best meal out we had for the whole week. Lovely friendly staff, good service and truly yummy food

Fantastic lunch, great service, we will come back!

Wow what a pub! A proper pub! Rare find these days! Fab atmosphere, brilliant music, nice friendly locals! This is definitely the place to be! Best pub in town! Lovely young friendly guy behind the bar! Thank you! I work in the Blue Peter Polperro, very similar vibes 💙

Lovely food, friendly staff. Even had a nickname name, we went in so often. The Prosecco People 🤣🤣 don't mind, though. That's all we ever drank. Would recommend going in here.

Strange but quaint place to get to. Be prepared for a staircase, a handrail on both sides, and you'll need it to, to climb upstairs. Once upstairs, we were approached by a smiling member of staff, who said, "Sit where you like." The floor slopes, but once seated, it seems you forget. We all had Devon cream & jam scone with a cup of coffee each. Wow, the scone freshly made earlier, was warm. It just melted in your mouth. Once you got the jam & cream on, or is it cream & jam. My aunt & I had a latte & my husband & uncle had a cappuccino. Stand carefully for the loo, you may fall. There is only one unisex toilet. We paid and left. Back down the staircase again....the restaurant is above a shop, which is situated by the museum. Not for disabled people..though I made it with my walking stick. No car parking.

Please, do not confuse The Shambles of Dartmouth is a bar but it’s No.1 on Higher street (in the corner T junction with Smith Street) yes, small place, music and good company See you there xx

We visited the Flavel for the screening of King Lear direct from London. This was superb but the cafe wasn't open when we turned up and we couldn't even get a cup of coffee during the twenty minute break as only alcoholic drinks or two soft drinks were available at the bar. It didn't spoil our evening but we needed the caffiene at the time and couldn't get it
