This is a pub with a nice atmosphere that you can feel as you walk in the door. That's if you can…read moreget in the door, which is unlikely on a friday or saturday evening! Top tip is to be at the front of the Early Bird (before 6.30pm) or come later when the Early Birds have flown! Food is great value and the salad cart is always well stocked. Don't miss the bread rolls which can be found at the top, over the salad cart. Staff are friendly and helpful although run off their feet at busy times, so make sure to take a little patience with you for you meal.

Situated just off Marsh mills roundabout heading out towards the Plympton area of Plymouth…read more Plenty of on site parking available, with a couple of disabled bays. Ive only been out here over lunch and late afternoon ( Im a cheap skate who loves the early bird offers) Even then usually have to wait for a table - but max has been 10 mins & you can sit in the bar area with a drink whilst you await to be called I love the salad bar, and would be quite happy order that as my main - though i dont think they give you this option. I have found the service to be fast & friendly - never had any issues. Food is good & plentiful. Overall this place is great value for money

I was down in Plymouth for a medical conference and the breakfast for the Premier Inn I stayed at…read morewas served at the Beefeater restaurant next door I had chosen to pre-book breakfast as my previous experiences of the all you can eat breakfasts at Premier Inns had been positive The two things which immediately struck me on entering the restaurant were the friendliness of the staff and how dark the place was. I had intended to read some course material at breakfast but this proved impossible with the extreme low lighting Unlike my previous experiences at Premier Inn, the cooked breakfast order was cooked to order rather than being swerved buffet style. They were however very generous with the choice of items available The juices, cereals, bread, yoghurts and fruit salad were available to help yourself I was disappointed with the lack of flavour in the sausage and bacon in my cooked breakfast. The quality of the food didn't measure up to previous experiences and I did regret pre-booking what is quite an expensive breakfast Fortunately the friendly staff made it a good start to the day nonetheless

Yes it's just like every other Beefeater but it's always packed and it's in a great location…read more There's ample parking and the interior is far more attractive than the exteriori. I think this is largely overlooked by a lot of people but it's worth visiting for honest wholesome food. It's especially popular with my parents and I have to admit we have never had a bad meal here. Service varies but it's seldom bad.

Surly service and poorly mannered employees. Food is incredibly average and drinks are overpriced…read more Would not recommend.

Best damn martini I ever had (and I've had a "few")…read more Naturally, the Plymouth gin helps. BUT..... The bartender showed me how he makes a dry and medium martini including the different proportions. Simple, huh? What I found amazing was the quality was repeated from drink to drink. Not often are bartenders that precise (The only place I've seen that standard was in Tokyo's Imperial Hotel "Frank Lloyd Wright" lounge). In Plymouth, treat yourself to a work of art in the Refectory Bar in the form of a perfect martoonie , mixed and served in wonderful surroundings by "PhD mixologists".

Admittedly I'm biased, loving Plymouth gin as I do, but this is an exceptional bar. First rate…read moredrink making and service, an impeccable menu, and a historic location. Bartenders Ashton and Bob are accomplished booze artists and give an excellent kebab recommendation as well. Not to be missed!
