Nestled within the Dartmoor National Park, Warren House Inn is opened to the public for food and drinks. You'd be surprised its rich history - a hearth that has been burning since 1845! Around the corner are Dartmoor ponies and Highland cows (coos), and great hiking spots to the local tin mine. The food is good - but the burger could be a bit more gamey in taste (I like it but it doesn't mean you would). Service is great, and the ambiance is better than you'd expect - especially after braving the cold wind and rain when hiking outside. Highly recommend checking it out - I certainly would return.

The quality of the food is "average" for a pub; nothing stands out as special or has an awesome flavour. The interior of the pub is partly cosy, dark and partly "eighties meets wooden interior". So that's all not very impressive, but that's not what you will remember this Inn for. Location and view: wow!

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 staff are just lovely, each of them is friendly and will have a joke with you, regardless of whether you are a regular or not. Prices are standard for drinks. Food though, this is where the place shines. although certainly not cheap, the quality is just brilliant, all food is cooked to a brilliant standard, and the variety of the menu is stunning considering the size of the establishment. A really brilliant choice if you are looking for a good meal, i'm consistently impressed when i go there. Also has an outdoor beer garden, which is nice in the summer, but nothing special and certainly not a feature i would say is outstanding. Overall, it's a lovely pub, with brilliant service, but the food is what makes it stand out above anywhere else in Plymouth.

I visited England this past week, and this begins a series of reviews from the miscellaneous places…read moreI went to eat while there. I'm starting with The China House because we went there for my birthday dinner! The China House is not Chinese, but rather named so because it used to be a factory where they made, you guessed it, china! As such, the atmosphere is quite cool. The wait staff was friendly and helpful (they even stored and brought out a birthday cake that we'd brought along). The menu offers a variety of options, all at very reasonable prices*. Our party ordered anything from steak to chicken pot pie to lamb to duck and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. Top it off with some nice wine and/or hard cider and you've got yourself a delicious meal at a very reasonable price. The China House is definitely a place to check out for dinner if you haven't already. If I ever find myself back in Plymouth, I'll be sure to stop by here again! *Note that when I say reasonable prices I mean so in GBP and not converted to USD, which unfortunately came out to be over 160% higher while we were there.

Theres something about sea air that works up an appetite like nothing else can so after a busy morning building sandcastles on the beach with the kids this pub is perfect for a spot of lunch. Child friendly with very well trained staff I can certainly recommend this as a place to eat when out and about in Goodrington. I chose the quiche and my husband had gammon and egg from the two for ten pounds menu available in the daytime. The quiche (served with chips and salad) was a little burnt on the bottom but that didnt spoil my enjoyement of it as it was very deep filled and tasted homemade. The gammon was cooked to perfection and served with two eggs, chips, mushrooms and grilled tomato. My son had cheeseburger and chips (no veg) from the kids menu and found the toasted bread cob to be a little overdone but the beefburger was excellent and again tasted homemade. My husband is a John Smiths drinker so the very helpful barman recommended Tetleys which he liked and I chose their only real ale, St Austell Tribute which was exceptionally good. Kids choices of drinks are typically J2O or Robinsons Fruit Shoot. Overall the whole meal came to just over twenty pounds including drinks which proved to be exceptional value for money for the area we were in. I would definately eat at the Inn on the Quay again.

One problem, the staff. We asked to sit outside. Told they were short staffed and we couldnt, even though the place was almost empty, and the staff hung around the bar chatting a lot. Then saw a couple outside have their order taken. Come one! OK, even if you closed off the wood decking area outside, we could have sat just outside the back door, which you can see from the bar and is easy to cover. So we took our drinks and rest of our food out there. But of course only on the proviso we pay first, in case we run off. Really? You need to have a word with your staff, they need to be more flexible. Need to realise what is good for the customer is good for their wages.

One person ordered 3 appetizers as a meal, but requested it all together (soup, salad, and calamari). No one else ordered any appetizers 1:45-soup and salad come out, separate from everything else 2:00-some of the food comes out. My order is partly wrong, more on that later 2:05-remaining food comes 2:15-we finish eating 2:25-we finally get the waitress to pay the bill Really? 90 mins for a lunch service? 2 tables were sat, served, and cleared while we waited for food Food: I ordered the shredded BBQ chicken with roasted root vegetables instead of chips. The sandwich was 3/5, but I got the chips. And the root veg. At least I got the food I ordered, but they sill got it wrong and we paid extra for an additional side. I wouldn't return, but as I'm typically on the receiving end visiting customers in this area I will provably be back. Hopefully they redeem themselves.
