An absolute gem of a pub in one of Devon's prettiest, most tucked away coastal villages. The…read moreMason's Arms is, quite simply, a fantastic place in every sense of the word. 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.

All home cooked food, quickly prepared and brought to your table. There is a menu of light meals but more substantial offerings are on a blackboard above the bar, such as: roast pork with vegetables, Boeuf Bourguignon with vegetables or cauli/broccoli cheese crumble with/without new potatoes to name a few. There's also a special puddings menu. Delicious coffee is served with Pringle type mint chocolates. Prices are very reasonable. Upstairs is a complete surprise, with lots of comfy chairs and books to browse. This floor leads onto a large decked, roofed area which would be ideal in the summer of a leisurely evening drink. The loos are great too! Well behaved dogs allowed and are even given a few chews as a reward. Highly recommended.

There was a black board with about 10 specials plus a regular bar menu. It is a 16th century thatched pub. We sat in front of a lovely log fire. The meals appeared to be homemade.

I had a jacket potato covered in prawns and they were happy for Mum to have a children's meal as she only has a tiny appetite. It serves locally sourced food and drinks.

The view from the garden was stunning and well worth the visit. I will come again. Swedish Ett helt fantastiskt ställe om man vill ha god öl och mat samt en utsikt som slår det mesta. Att slå sig ner i trädgården med en kall Ale från något lokalt bryggeri och beundra landskapet och se solen gå ned är värt en resa i sig. Svårslaget må jag säga. Personalen är mycket trevlig och gästvänlig och pubens stora St:Bernardshund Heidi kommer gärna och blir kliad vid bordet. Ölen är mycket god om man gillar ale. Flera sorter från lokala bryggerier finns att prova och jag fann aldrig nån anledning att ens kolla om de hade nån "vanlig" lager eller sånt blask. Är man i UK så är man. :) Maten är bra och du får mycket för pengarna. Jag åt en grillad köttbit med strips ( 4 cm tjocka!) med grillad svamp och tomater. Till det örtsmör på köttet och en skål gräddsås gjord med lokal blåmögelost. Köttet var mört och fint men intrycket grumlades något av att grillen inte rengjorts bra så det smakade lite bränt även om köttet var bra tillrett. Det var det enda minuset. Efterrätterna var fantastiska dock så totalintrycket blir högt. Man får inte vänta sig för mycket av en vanlig pub på landet. Är ni i närheten, stanna till här och njut av livet ett tag.
