the food is hot, filling and arrives very quickly, even when dinning room is full. service is 100% attentive. the range of food is very good

Probably one of the best weather spoons there is. Best location. Good service 💪🏾👏🏾🙌🏾

Delicious food, mid-range price wise. Staff went above and beyond, made us feel very welcome - very dog-friendly so definitely worth a visit if you are staying on or close to Devon Hills Holiday Park.

Great salad made by Dani. Thank you I will be back!

Fantastic service and really welcoming from Daisy-May and the team. We have a newborn so needed a booth in a quieter spot, this was no trouble at all for the staff. The food was also all really tasty, we had roasts and it was all fresh and cooked to a high standard. Pleasantly surprised by Beefeater.👌👌

We were on an overnight stay and looking for a place to eat. We popped in on the off chance. Staff were very friendly and were able to accommodate us. My husband had the scallops starter and would highly recommend. I had the pate which was very nice. The prawn Thai curry was very nice. Would recommend but advise you book

We went in here for a drink over the Christmas period and as soon as we walked inside we were greeted by very rude and unfriendly bar staff, because we had a pushchair. Following that the same member of star was rude to a 7 year old because he was in the bar area. We understood that it is a small pub, however the hostility was completely unjustified, so would not recommend this pub to anyone who isn’t a local

Had lunch here and the food was really delicious, service was slow taking plates away but I would highly recommend the food. I had Camembert and mango soufflé, both were very tasty!! I did not stay in the hotel but it looked very nice from the parts of it I saw. Also there is a lovely view from the terrace where you can sit and have a drink.

Great service and menu choice. The Thursday night special of cod and chips was delicious. We were staying near by and ate there each evening.

Disappointing breakfast. Ordered poached eggs on toast. One piece of unbuttered bread with 2 small overcooked eggs. The eggs were cooked in vinegar and the toast tasted of vinegar. Nearly £8!

We booked a table of 8 for a Christmas day meal with family (£110 per head) - this hotel is supposed to be "the best" - to be honest, if that is the case, I'd hate to see the worst! Arrived in good time for the first sitting, and people were milling around in the foyer near the bar with little co-ordination. When the doors opened we were seated at the back of the restaurant which suited us as we had two family members in wheelchairs which meant that they were less likely to be bumped.  We were offered a glass of sparkling wine, only two of us were drinking so we asked for orange juice or lemonade and we were given one carafe of each which was appreciated... Then it began to go downhill. The "amuse bouche" arrived we asked if this was gluten free for one of our family (we had specified this at the time of booking) so the waitress said she'd check and took it away... Never to be seen again.  We waited a considerable time before we saw another member of staff who came to clear our plates and were able to ask them what had happened, before they came back with a gluten free bread roll as the "amuse bouche" wasn't gluten free! We were just left and our youngest member was becoming distressed by being so hungry and an hour after we'd arrived we had to go and ask for her food (a burger) which turned up but had things on her plate which we'd specified that she couldn't eat, but we picked it off her plate.  We had emptied the carafes whilst waiting and asked for the wine waiter to order some drinks, and waited, and waited.  I gave up and went to the bar to get two beers and a bottle of water (no tray offered, so ended up with the bottle in my pocket and three glasses balancing) The soup turned up and was polished off quickly as we were hungry.   We then waited watching the waiting staff wandering around holding plates of food aimlessly. Our meals turned up at 3pm - two hours after being seated.  There were inconsistencies with the plates, some had parsnips, some had pigs in blankets with a pureed swede which was overcooked, with Brussels sprouts that were undercooked and accompanied with tiny roast potatoes that weren't crispy and hard in the middle to the point that they were inedible.  There was no confirmation from the waiting staff that the food they put down was gluten free for our coeliac family member - so I'd be extremely wary if anybody visiting has an allergy or intolerance. We asked to speak to the manager as both the food and service were to put it politely abysmal - his response was that he'd give a free bottle of prosecco if we came again!  He had absolutely no idea of how the Christmas meal had been ruined, all he needed was to apologise and make sure that waiting staff paid enough attention (the empty beer glasses and carafes were left on the table). The wine waiter still hadn't turned up, so it necessitated another trip to the bar. The desserts arrived (in stages) and there were no knives for the cheeseboard, fortunately the table hadn't been cleared properly so one knife was still there, and I asked the "restaurant manager" for a knife.... Surprise, surprise this didn't appear either, so I used the small Swiss army knife kept to carry out repairs to the wheelchair so I could eat, when she saw this, she finally brought me a knife. The other diners for the "second sitting" were told that they couldn't enter as the other guests hadn't left (no mention that the appalling level of service was responsible for the delay). A waitress came over and said that there was "self service coffee & petit fours" - no petit fours and to be fair, I'd had enough of this farce and left. NEVER AGAIN

Had two jacket potatoes from the hatch, they were really good, potatoes were really good size cooked well, had cheese and bean's, and tuna mayo was loads on the potatoes 🥔 and lovely and hot, great coffee also lovely and hot, and hot chocolate ,price for all was good, thank you very much, staff were lovely

The food was much better than we expected and we will definitely visit when we return to England in the fall. Robert Chapman

Budget weatherspoons. Great jukebox. Sticky carpets

Food was abundant but greasy and salty. In general it feels like food is just mistreated, the ribs in particular were carbonised... the nice detail of the spicy coleslaw was marred by it being three tablespoons. Service was ok.
