"We only stayed for one night but we absolutely loved this place! Rachel (I hope I got her name right) was incredibly welcoming and friendly. Her customer service was excellent. Amanda is not only a fantastic host but also a talented cook! She is very friendly and takes the time to chat with guests. The dinner we had was freshly prepared and delicious. For breakfast, we had a selection of fruits, cereals, and a cooked breakfast made to order, all of which were delicious. Our room was fantastic - spotlessly clean, with an extremely comfortable bed, and a luxurious shower. Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone who is looking for a genuine, friendly pub experience. This place is a gem for anyone who appreciates a traditional, down to earth atmosphere."

"I visited this evening with some friends for a long overdue catch up. Staff were very welcoming, lovely atmosphere. Very friendly locals. The food was really good, 8 guys all ate well and everyone enjoyed their meals. Clearly, thought has been given to using local suppliers and the menu offered a good selection so everyone was happy. Good selection of beers on tap including the local ale brewed in Ilfracombe Beach Blond. I was offered a sample and over the evening enjoyed a few. So pleased not to be the designated driver. Will definitely be returning soon and happy to recommend to all."

"I have refrained from writing a review until now in hopes that there would be improvement, but it seems unlikely. My family and friends have been regular patrons at South 16, and we all share the same sentiment - the owners seem to have given up. The food is subpar and poorly prepared in comparison to their competitors, and the inexperienced young girls working at the front of the shop often make mistakes. The prices on the website do not match those in the shop, and after speaking to others who have dined here, the feedback is not positive. Unfortunately, I will also be taking my business elsewhere. If the management is reading this, please reconsider the way you treat your customers. It is unacceptable to be rude and dismissive towards them, especially when mistakes are made with their orders. I was met with aggression and hostility when I raised a concern, and I was the only customer at the time. I will end my review here."

"We only visited to eat, not stay. Food was excellent, the menu was interesting and good value. The only disappointment was being seated in the room furthest from the bar and nearest the kitchen. It meant the ambience was lacking. In addition, it was obvious that my sister has mobility issues as she had crutches,so taking us to a table furthest from the door was not helpful. There were plenty of empty tables elsewhere. Despite the above comment we would still visit the Stag Head Inn again. Service: 5 Location: 5 Hotel highlights: Quiet"

"Lovely cafe close to the beach in the centre of Coombe Martin, right next door to the butchers. Visiting in mid-January we were not expecting anything to be open, maybe a pub and a village shop or two, but not alot else so to find the Harbour Deli Coffee shop being open was a pleasant surprise. A nice cafe serving hot cold meals and snacks, tea, coffee and hot chocolate as well as cold drinks. Sandwiches freshly made whilst you wait. Friendly staff, impeccably clean and nicely spaced out seating and tables, certainly not cramped. Dogs welcome as well, so we sat on a table looking out onto the street. Prices were very reasonable it was certainly very popular too ."

"If you want brilliant service come to Rising Sun. You first go in as customers and leave as friends. The staff can’t do enough for you, make you feel welcome, accommodate the requests of a toddler and engage in conversation they are genuine lovely people. We had delicious Sunday Roasts, then went back everyday since! Ambience is very cosy and warm with good music in the background. Thanks for making our stay so memorable."

"We’ve been coming down to Lynton and Lynmouth for years, eaten in most places and have always wanted to try this lovely tea room and cafe in Lynton, The Picnic Box. Our family of 6 enjoyed their wonderful Traditional Ploughman’s lunch with a selection of meats, local cheese and a slice of homemade quiche (which was delicious , lots of sandwiches and homemade soups catered to the whole family’s taste. Their cakes on the counter kept tempting us throughout lunch, so we had to order a few slices to try out. All homemade and absolutely delicious. We had a freshly made slice of Caramel Shortbread, a cream tea (the scones were so fluffy and light! and a slice of Chocolate Orange cake Mary Berry would be proud of! We will definitely be back, it’s a must stop for lunch in Lynton!"

"What a surprise to find such good quality food in a pub in Braunton at last and even more for such a reasonable price. The menu is fairly short but beautifully balanced. a choice of several starters, five mains and a few sweets. Only the two of us and we both had the chicken chorizo which was exquisite. The chef, Dan, knows how to cook. Other things which we hope to see when next in Braunton are the arancini which we saw and also heard lovely comments about from the next table and the sticky pork. A nice selection of wines, beer straight from the barrel in perfect condition and the prompt service by the landlord, Grant, was friendly, funny and most welcoming. What a gem to find which we are going to visit again when next in the area."

"What an unexpected treat! As the cynical Londoners we are, we arrived to the restaurant extremely skeptical, but oh gosh how we changed our mind. The food is truly excellent, such a wide variety of Nepalese and Indian dishes all cooked to perfection. SO tasty! And the service is equally good. Cherry on the cake, it's also very reasonably priced. I don't often leave reviews, but to any other skeptical tourists around, I can't recommend it enough ;"

"We ordered a large amount of food for delivery from The Hub, including pizzas, garlic bread, and chips. The online ordering process was simple, with a comments section for dietary requirements. Two of our group are vegan, and the restaurant accommodated this. Delivery times were on schedule, and the driver was friendly. We were pleased to see that the delivery car was electric. Unfortunately, the vegan pizzas were missing from the order, but the restaurant quickly rectified the mistake. They redelivered the entire order, along with a bottle of prosecco, showing exceptional customer service. The food was delicious, with tasty toppings and fresh pizza crust. The chips were particularly good. Well done, The Hub, your efforts deserve recognition."

"Had a meal with my wife at Seasons Brasserie, which is in the Park Hotel. The Park has recently had a refurb, so the place looks nice and modern. The Brends seem to over staff, and we arrived into a quiet dining area for an early booking. There was an army of staff to look after us. Service was very good. We both ate from the Table D`Hote. My wife very much enjoyed her Lamb and my Beef was good, however there were some issues. Pate starter was poor, with very little flavor and a strange choice of bread. Didnt finish it. Beef main tasted good, but the potato which came with it was lumpy. Desert was sickly sweet, and not to my taste to be fair I only ordered it so my wife could taste. My wife enjoyed her meal much more than I did, however based on this experience this isnt somewhere I would chose to spend my money again."

"absolutely wonderful meal and service by patent, nicole, nick and tom. we came twice for my birthday week stay on the grange. the place is lovely and the Tandoori chicken we had on the day was a delicious! On Thursday we had the beer that was stuffed with curry sauce and that was sensational. patent could not do enough for us, she was wonderful. she even delivered flowers and prosecco with julie (julie was also delightful) to our lodge on my birthday that had ordered my family home, and flowers from my man also. nicole was a beautiful young lady, very chatting and sociable, pleasant and happy. nick had a great feeling of humor and was also very professional and tom. Nothing was too much annoyed for her. we had a few delays between the meals, the kitchen was a little slow. but the dinners were nice. the customer service has worked out to ask for everyone. the wine menu was very good and also cocktails."

"I only visited trip advisor to pull off the number to book for the weekend and I was intrigued by several less than positive reviews. We 've been going there for about seven years both to eat in and for takeaways (especially during COVID). Great place, brilliant food and friendly and attentive staff. Living in Devon but working often in London I 've experienced a number of well known and highly acclaimed Indian Restaurants in town and these aren 't a patch on the Chumleigh Tandori. The decor may be a little dated but give me good food and good service at reasonable prices over paint any time!"

"Wow! My husband and I were staying around the corner and had walked past this delicious smelling pizzeria too many times we had to try it! We used the app to book as we were worried about timings/availability as it always seems so busy. It worked brilliantly. Super easy to use we loved that you can personalise your pizza or omit things (we requested no onions on one of our pizzas) . You can request a 15 minute time slot to collect and also pay with Apple Pay. All in all, an efficient, thorough, but simple booking process! We had a notification to say the pizzas were ready bang on time and my husband wandered to collect them. They are deep pan pizzas, so don’t expect a thin crust, typical Italian pizza. However, they are DELICIOUS! Loaded with your chosen topping and cooked to perfection. They’re also super filling! We would 100% recommend based upon the whole experience. Thank you!"

"My wife and I found this dog friendly pub after a lot of searching as it didn 't appear on Google Maps. We had to pay £1.50 in the nearby council car park as it was only 7:30pm. We found a table quite easily for a Sunday evening, and fortunately, food was being served. I can 't recall exactly what we had as I wasn 't given an itemised bill; just a VISA receipt. We shared a starter, my wife had the burger chips but didn 't finish it, and I had the pork and did, so had jam sponge dessert one of only 4, all of which were stodgy ."

"Overpriced food. Lack lustre. Very disappointing. £17 for a 'slice ' of vegetarian lasagne and some skinny fries. That 's it no salad, veg, peas?? Dry, pale cheese topping. Only just very warm, not hot. Where was the slightly caramelised top layer of gooey cheese and pasta edges? Solid chunks of hard courgettes. The skinny fries were the best bit. Soooo overpriced. Like a microwave meal only sliced. Hunters Chicken, same price. Did at least have a salad effort with it. Measliest bit of chicken, with limp bacon. Prime location. Get a chef in if charging these prices for café food! Sorry but you are taking the proverbial. Won 't return. Shame. And £7.50 for bog standard desert option? Didn 't go there."
