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.

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!

Aside from the cheesy deliciousness, everything about our visit to Crumplehorn Inn was pleasant. The manager that sat down with us to tell us about the history of the building, the impressive vegetarian menu and just the general ambience of the place. We chose to eat here for two reasons: 1 - the menus are written outside on chalkboards near the road. That way you can see what's being served without going in to ask for a menu. This is very good for us because as vegetarians, we've had to leave restaurants before if they don't have veggie options. 2 - it was one of the few places open. Just a friendly tip--don't go on holiday in November. Everything is frickin' shut. A lesson we learned the hard way! Anyhow, the Crumplehorn had it's doors open and we were lucky to have gone in. This place was one of the highlights of our Cornwall holiday. A must if you're visiting Polperro or Looe.

Beautiful location and countryside views....just about 3mins away by foot. And this fantastic pub/restaurant is owned by the same lovely couple, Catherine and Paul. There is a - more formal - restaurant section and the bar/pub section, where dogs are very welcome. And that's where we dined for two nights. It's a cosy, classic and local pub, full of atmosphere and character. Hosts and guests are very friendly and good for a chat. We - coming from Switzerland - didn't feel like outsiders at all. A very warm and welcoming place. Here's a short list of the food we chose these two nights. There is a regular menu, available every day and then a daily special board: Crabcakes: nice size, good flavours Royal Burger w/ chips: superb! Good meat, crispy onion rings and a great salsa Orange Duck Paté: smooth and full of flavours, nice twist with the orange Venison with sides: tender pieces of venison, rich and creamy gravy Scallops: not overly exciting, but ok Eaton Mess (not a typo): really good, nice berries Cheese Plate: good cuts of nice tasting local cheese Banoffee Pie: sweet, rich....a good thing! Rhubarb Crumble: nice balance between sweet (they put some apples) and sour, a lovely combination I can't praise this place enough. It's exactly the kind of local pub you might be looking for. Lovely owners and the cook really knows what he's doing. Reasonable prices too and good beer and wine! We were lucky, living just around the corner, because it gets very dark at night....and it's mostly one-lane roads here. Combine this scenario with a couple of pints.... but it's surely worth a visit.

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.
