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!

It's a bit scruffy and the decor is disctinctly quirky, but somehow manages to have the most amazing atmosphere. For warm day's there's outside seating, there's a good range of real ales and they serve hearty portions of reasonably priced food. In the summer they often have bands playing in the music room next door.

Amazing place! Officially the best and my personal favorite…read morepub in all of England. Circa 1540! Ceilings so low even I had to duck a couple times around the many old wood beams and brick arches all over the place. Very small but intimate, warm place with lots of little nooks and cool little places to cuddle up with your special one and a few great pints. Live music was excellent, and it definitely filled the place, making it actually a bit too hot for my comfort, but that's how the English do it. Seating outdoors as well for the smokers. Small bar food menu, but also an upper restaurant part as well with full menu of your usual British food. So glad we stumbled upon this place, somewhat hidden from the main road, and will always be a place we visit when in town.

The food is outstanding, the flavours subtle, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients make the very best dishes. A mark of the professionalism of Tanners is that we had a slight delay on our desserts, we did not complain, but we were given a free liqueur and not charged for the dessert! I will not wax lyrical over every dish we had, all you need to know is that this is the best restaurant in Plymouth. You really have to try it, an outstanding experience.
