It was very welcoming and clean with all new bathrooms with cozy robes, complimentary beer, fizzy water, biscuits, and we enjoyed some great food. Breakfast was included. Also very dog friendly!

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.

The pub is nice enough inside but we didn't stay in for long as it was lovely and sunny outside. It was a hot Summer's day at the end of August when I was there and it was extremely crowded. It was very unusual to see but there was a hog roast in the garden which very quickly sold out. We had lunch here, we sat outside in the garden and enjoyed the view of the beach and the sea. I had scampi and chips and it was delicious. The drawback though, was that because they were so busy there was always a long wait for another drink or to get the food. But the views from the garden meant we didn't mind the wait, we just felt thoroughly relaxed. Well worth a visit if you're ever in Beer.

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. My husband had liver and bacon which he couldn't fault with separate vegetables. We think that was £9.99. 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.

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!
