I grew up in Devon and I used to visit Cranks as a child 30 years ago when vegetarianism was still…read moreseen as a somewhat dubious eccentricity and organic food was a glint in some hippy's eye. Except at Cranks. They still serve familiar classics like Homity Pie and quiches as well as lovely salads from a sort of buffet line and the food is as good now as it was then. The big difference today is that The Good Life has gone mainstream and vegetarians (like me) are not Cranks anymore. We're all hippies now. I visited Cranks this week with my wife and had a lovely walk round the grounds at Dartington Hall and a tasty, filling lunch at Cranks. Big bowls of soup, cheese scones followed by epic quiche and salad plates. Nostalgia never tasted so good.

I am a thin/petite person and the chairs felt weak under me, my plus sized sister was terrified that her chair would break under her (we tried switching out chairs too thinking it was just that one but it wasn't). Our table was in a corner by the bar that "technically" could seat 4 but there was a section of the wall that came out next to you that blocked 1/4 of the table on one side. Their bathrooms are also TINY, like barely able to lift my elbows out from my sides (again thin/petite) so definitely not handicap accessible. They do offer dairy and gluten free options, which is amazing but they need to update their furniture stat before someone ends up getting hurt!

Rumour is a cosy little bar, bistro and restaurant in the heart of the former hippie town Totnes,…read morewhich remains one of the centres of the alternative movement. The blackboard menu changes daily, and, as should be the case in Totnes, there are always vegetarian options available. Their pizzas are also very good, and there is an extensive selection of toppings available on the separate pizza menu. The particular focus of Rumour is on local organic produce such as meats, veg, beer and cider, which is good for the local economy. The atmosphere is quite laid-back and therefore welcoming, and the service is friendly and quick. Prices could be lower but the quality of food is very high. Overall, a definite must if you find yourself in Totnes!

We'd been traumatised by travel, travelling en masse, tired with hunger taunting us in Taunton, we…read morewanted something nicer than filling up at a roadside filling station. We found a quiet atmosphere-free Free-house to decide on dinner. Bar-side with sweet cider inside us, we made a connection with the frontage opposite. A large comic font banner, a sticker in the window beckoned us to 'The Connection', but from outside we couldn't be sure if it was a restaurant or a travel agency, or even a dating agency. Then a lit candle warmed the setting under the aforementioned confusing banner. It illuminated a double date just visible at the window table. With each person looking into the middle distance they were looking like they were making anything but a connection. Hoping the food was more inspiring and afraid of the alternative offerings of only pizza or kebab, we edged cautiously over the double junction double quick to enquire. A Sandwich board outside announced it was 'Winesday', a free house bottle for every table. We went in. Entering we were heralded by pan pipes; a mix tape began swirling the comforting melody of The X Files theme tune around us. Before we had time to turn back our waiter appeared. Looking surprised to see us form a crowd on a weekday night, our jolly characterful waiter with Fawltless formality apologised for an impending slow service. Not in our best bib and tuckers however, he did seem a little shirty. "Do you have a booking", he enquired taking a formal tone (where until our arrival the place was empty). Grateful for the seats and that it was Winesday, too! The free house's choice bottle for the table more than made up for our non trumpeted arrival. Pleasantly surprised by their Chilean, I'm more than happy to blow their horn for their choice of a bold tropically lush white which complimented our food beautifully. It seemed we'd struck gold at the best place on the street. The interior of this French place was pretty snappy, all muted tones that spoke volumes that this was the town's 'nice place'. To start: My liver parfait was mousse like, light yet retained a rich smooth flavour, braced in crisp pancetta. I'd have enjoyed the accompanying brioche more but I'd buttered too much pre dinner pre warmed pumpkin seed roll to stack up on more carbs. The rest of the table were very happy with the beautifully fresh caught scallops to start, complimented by Southeast Asian spicing, but just a few of the blighters were a bit underdone for one of our likings. Not undoing the enjoyment of our evening, Seafood crepes, covered in grilled cheese were delicious but sadly the salmon within was as mushy as the concept of Parisienne romance that this French inspired brasserie was trying to convey. Also warned of the possible shot, the equally fresh duck dish sitting proudly in a pond of jus was rich and flavourful but as with any duck recipe it either needs long slow cooking to break down the tough meaty fibre or quick cooking to keep it rare as fine French food. Not offensive, but this duck was somewhat perched on the fence. What stole the show was the firm and delicate delectable lemon sole and the passionate enthusiasm of our attentive waiter. Not knowing what else Taunton had to offer, it was well worth one hell of a stopover. We wimped out at dessert, but it seemed that it was this course that kept the table adjacent to us who were out at at sea, back on course for a cheerful evening.

This puts many off who wander off to return later or settle for lesser venues, but we found that waiting just few minutes meant a table came up as diners squeezed up to let us in. The food is ordered and paid for at the counter and then brought out to you. The cinnamon toast is a speciality that you should have anyway and a great apitiser for the full English breakfast. All the ingredients are top quality; the sausage is a really tasty Lincolnshire, the eggs and tomatoes were perfectly done and the toast was a selection of freshly cut White and granary. The place oozes character. All in all, the perfect way to start the day before exploring the wonderful Dartmouth.
