We had a bar snack sandwich each and was impressed by the staff and the quality of the food, so we had a quick look at the full menu and decided to book a table for that evening. The food is quite traditional, but with a wonderful eastern influence. Beautifully presented with fantastic flavours, every course was a delight and I thought the bill was very reasonable. I've certainly paid more for lesser fare than this! I would heartily recommend anybody who finds themselves in the Barnstaple area check this place out!

I was really impressed with The Thatched Inn…read more We popped in here after trying out the ultimate assault course around the corner, so we were all really hungry, slightly hungover and in need of some good food. Most people seemed to be going for the carvery (and we were told if we wanted to sit outside in the sun, the carvery was the only option...) so we all went with that. Why I liked it: - I am not normally a fan of carveries...they make me think of dry meat and uninspiring, overcooked vegetables BUT the thatched inn version was actually really good. - Veggy wise: there was honey glazed parsnips, cauliflower cheese, leeks in some amazing creamy sauce, broccoli, peas, perfect roasties, looovely swede mash...it was all gorgeous. - They have large, puffy Yorkshire puddings - We had a choice of lamb, turkey or pork (with loads of crackling) a or a nut loaf for the vegetarians - All of that was £10 (!) I wasn't too keen on the fake grass outside... and the staff were not particularly friendly... but we all still had a really good meal and I'd definitely come back if I happen to be in this area again.

I've stopped off for a snack or a quick drink a couple of times, and it's always really impressed me, and the lunch my parents and I had recently ranks as one of the best pub dinners the Andrews family can remember. Their crab sandwiches were fresh, as were the fish in their delicious creamy leek fish stew, while the ploughmans was huge. Desserts of chocolate and pecan brownie and banana fritters with toffee sauce were gobbled up. Ok, it's not cheap for a Devon pub, but the food is worth every penny - there was hardly anything on the menu I didn't want to scoff down. The pub itself is a charming sprawl of wooden rooms, and a small seating area out the front. It's homely and although the staff run a slick operation, they're still friendly and helpful. The pub was recently taken over by St Austell Brewery, so there's a good range of their beers, plus a couple of guest ales. This includes one local beer brewed in Branscombe. It's quaint, delicious, comfy and sits in one of the most stunning areas of the Devon coast. It is, quite simply, a perfect pub.
