The best restaurants serving British food in South West

Lovely friendly staff we had well cooked food witch was presented nicely we could take our time there was no pressure on how long we were there plus we took home some lovely cakes for afternoon tea.

We were lucky enough to have pre lunch drinks on the terrace in brilliant sunshine. On a Sunday there is a choice of four dishes for each course. That is plenty of choice and mqkes life easier. The food was very good and a serviceable wine list. The staff are very helpful and efficient.

Lovely outside setting for lunch in the sunshine looking out on the hotel grounds. Excellent service. However very expensive for what you get.

Popped out having been to this pub when it was for sale and have to say the owners have done a lovely job, lots of local produce and home produced meats. There is a lovely feel to the pub and the owners are very welcoming. Look forward to coming back on a sunny day to enjoy the lovely garden.

Walked in and was greeted but then overheard owner being disrespectful to staff (and threatening to fire staff) when I was walking to the toilet. Worst holiday

Lovely eat in and takeaway. Family breakfast for a family of 5. Great service, even had a lovely warm bowl of bread pudding 😁 as a taster. Great value. Will definitely visit again when we're in Exmouth

Really great lunch at extremely good prices. Homemade food and very friendly staff. The best steak and kidney pie I have had in years. Everything we had was excellent quality and well presented.

Delicious meal and excellent service with fabulous views. Menu choice offers something a little different and this fabulous restaurant has a central open kitchen. I had the Asian fish and my husband had the lamb shank, both were delicious.

Although busy we were seated quickly so that was a positive. However after taking our order for x4 light snacks (cheesy chips/halloumi fries etc) and a cocktail each, we still had not received anything after 40 minutes! When the food came we asked if the drinks were also coming to be told our drinks had been served to the wrong table! Also when the food came there was an error with the food and a member of the group had to then wait another 15 minutes after which everyone else had finished. So after 55 minutes 3 of us finally got our food and we all had our drinks. Due to the delay we had to push back our reservation elsewhere which luckily they could accommodate us.

We are on holiday and fancied some chips we had scampi and chips and pie and chips and the chips were disgusting they were over cooked and tasted like they had been cooked an hour ago nearly twenty pounds wasted it all went straight in the bin 🤮

Took 30 minutes to get our first drink and about 45 minutes to get our food order, food was basic at best and my pizza was dry and just had pepperoni on it, very basic and not very nice. Finished food and they left our plates on the table for one hour, waited for 2nd round of drinks for over 45 minutes, at which point we asked for the bill due to the delay. The staff had a no care attitude, we’re totally disorganised and completely chaotic. When you come for a meal whilst being on holiday you expect professional standards and a restaurant to want their customers to have a nice time, neither applies in this case. Worst restaurant experience I’ve had in many years - avoid at all costs!!

Read a lot of negative reviews about this place. It has changed, but in terms of a fish and chip shop it ticks all boxes. One size fish, One size chips is obviously their way of simplifying the menu. Fish was decent with crispy batter, nice chips. Good value also.

I live locally-ish. Tortworth has options for different occasions and I love that. I really should go more often. Last night was dinner with an ex colleague. We’re foodies and want to enjoy what we are eating whilst we gossip. We arrived early, straight from work and first to be seated. We had a perfect window seat looking over the garden and those enjoying their summer drinks in the sun. Joseph/Joe was our server, who was young, helpful and very sweet. Attentive but not overbearing. Great recommendations and insights on what other guests thought of options. Pink Prosecco to celebrate a new job with some olives and artisan bread. Yum! I think my friend had pan fried cod on risotto but I can’t be too sure because I was lost in my grilled halloumi on giant couscous! Really hearty and light at the same time. We had a classic tiramisu but it was dressed with little biscotti, tiny pieces of meringue and fruit, that made it just a little bit different. Nice touch. We finished off in the bar next door with Paloma and a Mojito. Perfect evening, thanks Tortworth! Ps my condolences for Lady Grey she will be missed.

Food was not bad, service on the other hand a little poor. Staff were a bit clueless, no customer service skills. Alight sitting outside, wouldn’t sit inside.

my persnal favorite was the rasberry bubble frappe it was delicious i also went for brunch and the food was lovely but the only thing that lets them down is the floor i didnt want to touch the floor
