Yank here. First of all, I disagree with the poster that…read moresaid this is average pub food. Maybe we just have terrible pub food in the US, but I would consider this pub food gourmet and made with love. I had their fish and chips and it was a legit entire fish fried golden brown. I subbed onion rings for fries bc I honestly couldn't stomach another "chip" in the UK. I'm tired of fried potatoes, sorry. So this entire fish was not the frozen, breaded blocks of fish you get in America. I felt my coronary arteries occluding after eating 25% of my fish and after one onion ring so I had to tap out. But not before I devoured the mushy peas- bc it's almost like mashed potatoes, except green and not potatoes. Husband had the beef shin special which was delicious and odd (I can't say I've ever had shin served in the US... it doesn't sound appetizing but it's pretty tasty). We had drinks to start and let me just say I got schooled on proper gin drinking- I'll be sure to consume my gin and tonic in a bowl, double shot gin, and plenty of ice. I had a fantastic meal. This place gets busy so make a ressie ahead of time. These country roads in Devon are a little treacherous for this California girl, but if we return I would definitely make a trip back here.

This is an amazing little pub. The bar area is cluttered with nick-nacks including ships in (and…read moreout of) bottles, and an eclectic array of ornaments of a largely eccentric nature! There is even a knitting corner. The snug is covered in graffiti and in another area there is a collection of toys. Dogs and children are welcome. The food is good my ham sandwich was top notch and Judi's prawn sandwich was reported as 'excellent'. There is a separate evening menu that has a limited choice, which suggests that the quality is likely to be good. Don't expect haute cuisine but do expect good pub food, entertaining and welcoming locals, friendly bar staff and a fascinating mooch around the various bits of 'stuff' around the pub. DON'T expect to pay by card! Take cash!

Another pub I've been visiting year after year when I holiday here in south Devon. The food is very traditional pub food (they do have some Indian food but I'd stick to the more old fashioned grub). Service can be a little slow, but hey, you're in a pub, with a full bar, relax and have a drink :) There's also a huge multi-floored beer garden out the back, with views of the scenic village. Inside, there are very old photos of the village, it's all very quaint :) Visit!
