Steak • British • European • Vegetarian

"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."

The Smugglers

➤ 5 The Quay, EX34 9EG, North Devon, United Kingdom

Steak • Seafood • British • Vegetarian

"Used to go here a lot with my mum over 20 odd years when on holiday in Ilfracombe, she loved it in here, had a look at the menu outside, quite pricey, but wanted a meal as a kinda nod to mum. Hadn 't been able to phone my kids to let them know wed got to Devon OK, as a poor signal/wi fi where we are staying, so asked at the bar if they had WiFi, the barman or owner, I don 't know which, turned to me and very loudly said, ' No, we expect people coming in here to eat and make conversation ' , he then encouraged the couple on the other side of the bar to join in his laughter at my request, we were then asked to sit near the bar and await a table,whilst he continued to pass comments about people on their phones whilst eating out to other customers at the Bar, I came to the very fast conclusion that he was rude, didn 't know my circumstances and could stick his food and attitude let 's hope when he reads this, he will contemplate why I was there, my simple request and not be so rude. Sorry mum, I tried xx"

Everest Gurkha Chef

➤ 3 Maiden Street, North Devon, United Kingdom

Asian • Indian • Nepalese • Vegetarian

"As always these guys and girls served an AMAZING feast! 10/10 for the food, can't fault it AT ALL! My only grumble is that the online menu which I sent to friends so they could pre-order (there was 12 of us) is apparently the takeaway menu so we all had to pay a little more than we expected to! Outstanding food and service as always tho!"

Espresso Seafood Grill

➤ 1 St James Place, EX34 9BH, North Devon, United Kingdom

Food • Steak • Coffee • Cheese

"our second time to this restaurant and I really think it was better than last year, it really excellent! the staff was beautiful, attentive and knowledgeable about which we should have (we had to remember tasty the last few years wein, but they are super helpful. we had the luxurious seafood salad, so much on there it is all fresh, absolutely glorious! we also had a side of the brotes a part of the pommes. then I had the apple cake for dessert and my partner had the brownie. muscadet wein goes well with seafood. we have ordered our plate during the day, so if they think of having this, I would recommend only if they run out of everything (you have no thanks espresso seafood bar and grill for my birthday really special for the second year. I'm happy to come back for the third time."

Fudgies Bakehouse

➤ United Kingdom, EX34 7BW, North Devon

Steak • Welsh • British • Fast Food

"Although they sell very tasty Cornish Pasty’s with lots of variety the staff are totally different. So rude unprofessional. It was late in the day so I stood in the queue and when I asked what’s left the very rude member of staff said go and look in the window that’s what’s left. Talking to various holiday makers at a very large complex in this area I’m not the only person who has experienced this type of behaviour from this outlet"

Fox Goose

➤ The Fox And Goose Inn, Leys Lane, Barnstaple, EX31 4, United Kingdom, EX31 4PE, North Devon

Pub • Steak • British • Vegetarian

"Appearances can be so deceptive. From the utside this is an unprepossessing and down-at-heel country put where the only food on offer would be a bag of crisps. The inside is a transformation though: clean, modern and with an extensive menu. Amd what a menu: at least four types of fish and meat, starters and sharers in abundance and even more than the usual one vegetarian option. Enough desserts to satisfy any craving. The menu descriptions were good and what we saw coming out made us want to try all of it. We visited twice and worked our way through the venison, the duck, and the fish (skate) as mains and the Camembert and the smoked fish starters and the chocolate dessert. All were first class: well cooked, generous portions and, with the mains, plenty of vegetables. The potatoes we found particularly good. Service was speedy but not rushed and staff excellent. The beer was good and well-kept. Prices were very reasonable we thought: about for two. Downsides? None really, except that it's off-the-beaten track. But don't let this put you off: find this lovely little pub, enjoy the menu and go home feeling replete and contented. We did. Twice."

Emperor's Court

➤ 111 High Street, EX34 9ET, North Devon, United Kingdom

Asian • Curry • Chinese • Malaysian

"I never write takeaway reviews, but eating was so amazing that I had this time! we ordered yesterday evening and it was ugly that the Chinese eating that we had compared with our locals in london was very good. Eat was not fat, fresh and really delicious. came with free crackers. the portion size was smaller than we use (usually we eat the rest the next day), but each plate was enough for 1 person. highly recommended!"

Nartnapa Thai Cuisine

➤ 5 Queen Street, North Devon, United Kingdom

Thai • Fish • Burgers • Chicken

"We made an online request to book a table here ahead of our Easter weekend stay in Lynton and received a call the next day confirming the booking. We were staying in the centre of Lynton and this was about a 20 minute walk away...along the Lynway, which was a pleasant walkway through a wooded area. It was well worth the walk there, the food was exceptionally good and all the staff serving were very pleasant and helpful, couldn't fault it at all. One tip I would say is maybe take a torch for the walk back to Lynton in the dark or maybe even get a taxi back."

Zest

➤ 135 East Street, EX36 3BU, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pizza • Coffee • British • Vegetarian

"Zest is a great little place in the centre of South Molton. We usually eat here when we come to South Molton as there is a good range of food choices, and the food is freshly cooked to order and very tasty to eat. The tables and floor are always clean and the toilets are always clean and tidy and accommodate disabled and baby changing. This review is based on the Daytime Menu. There were 3 of us, and we had 2 Zest Brunch's and a child's sausage, chips and beans, 2 lattes' and a chocolate milk followed by cake for the teen. We always book a table as Zest is very popular and we been turned away on a previous occasion, so always book now to be sure of getting in. You sit down and the staff come over to take your order. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Our drinks were served first and the food took maybe 20-25 minutes at most, which you would expect if they are cooking meals from scratch, including some of the best scrambled eggs that I have ever tasted. I asked to have toast instead of mushrooms, this was fine. The food was steaming hot when it arrived. We ate at 1pm and I like the fact that you can have a breakfast at that time of day and that there isn't a cut off time. In the past I have had poached eggs, cheese and ham omelette, soup and all these things were served hot and tasted great. I highly recommend Zest for lunch if you are in South Molton. The prices are good for the food served, there is a good range of food to choose from, including breakfasts and breakfast items on toast, burgers, cream teas, cakes, omelettes, panini's, sandwiches, pizza and a good gluten free offering too."

The Siam Bistro

➤ 2/10 Cross Tree Centre, EX33 1AF, North Devon, United Kingdom

Thai • Asian • Vegan • Vegetarian

"Set up an order to pick up at a certain time. Went to restaurant at exact time. Got told that order was meant to be picked up 40 minutes earlier. Had a call from Siam 30 minutes later than the time that they thought order should have been picked up. No care from management at Siam, it was a “computer says” moment. Food left on hot plate for 40 minutes. Food greasy, tasteless, over spiced. A poor and disgusting example of what the hospitality industry should be. The manager should have a review on how he deals with customers. I wouldn’t go back and would not recommend this place at all."

Claytons And The Glasshouse

➤ 2 Cross Street, EX31 1BL, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pizza • Steak • Tapas • European

"My experience at the recently renovated Clayton's was fantastic. We enjoyed a quick drink along with olives, homemade hummus, and warm delicious bread. The waitresses were extremely attentive and even gave us a complimentary glass of Prosecco for my friend's birthday. Clayton's used to be my local wine bar, but it had lost its charm over the years. However, it seems like they have won me and my friends back with their impressive service. We will definitely be returning soon."

Pack Of Cards

➤ High Street, EX34 0ET, North Devon, United Kingdom

Fish • Meat • Steak • Burgers

"We phoned on a wet Sunday and were lucky enough to get a table for the Sunday Carvery. I was slightly concerned at being asked to pay for the meal before I had even sat at the table, and I also found it odd that we were unable to add drinks to our bill (you have to go to the bar and pay for those separately). We decided to stick with it and I'm very glad we did because the meal itself was superb! A choice of three different meats, Yorkshire pudding, stuffing and probably ten different varieties of vegetable gave plenty of choice. My wife had beef and turkey, while I had just beef and without a doubt it was one of the best roast lunches either of us have ever had. Everything was perfectly cooked and tasted fantastic (the Cauliflower Cheese especially was superb). THOROUGHLY RECOMMENDED and I would go out of my way to eat here again."

The Thatch

➤ 14 Hobbs Hill, EX33 1LZ, North Devon, United Kingdom

Steak • Western • British • American

"Came here with family on a Sunday evening. It's great value, unpretentious pub food in a lovely setting. The standard menu is wide-ranging, with vegan options, and then there's the Specials Board. The food portions are very generous, and all meals arrived piping hot. We each had different dishes and found them tasty and filling. They had 3 bitters on the night we were there. Proper Job and Tribute were popular choices, as were the ciders. Perhaps the best part of all is the great service. From the moment we arrived, the staff seem genuinely pleased and proud to serve you. They were friendly and efficient and had been trained to clear tables properly, by using the full length of their arm, and stacking and sorting appropriately. We left a cash tip because they so deserved it. A great experience, we'll definitely be back."

The Old Station House Inn

➤ Blackmoor Gate, EX31 4NW, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pubs • Full • Steak • Cheese

"Ordered a 'Special ' of chilli loaded potato skins which was absolutely gross- probably the worst meal I 've ever ordered anywhere! Zero taste, greasy and oily and topped with what seemed to be a whole block of cheese. My partner ordered the hunter 's chicken which also proved to be inedible and overcooked. The children 's meals of mac 'n ' cheese seemed to be okay. None of the staff checked back during our meal or came to clear the plates- says it all when the staff know better than to ask how the food was!"

The Manor House Inn

➤ 39 St Mary's Road, EX33 1PG, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pub • Steak • Vegan • British

"large seating area in the open, with a level right next to the children's playground, which was comfortable. the staff was friendly and service fast (it was quiet as during the running time). the cream tees were beautiful although much more cream is needed! only enough for a thin layer on two sides of a scone. a beautiful restaurant, a short walk past cute cottages from the center of the village."

Johns Of Instow

➤ 4-5 Marine Parade, EX39 4HY, North Devon, United Kingdom

Cafés • Delis • Seafood • British

"Unfortunately, my experience wasn 't great. Johns closes at 17.30 and I walked through the doors with my baby at 17:15 only to be made to feel like I shouldn 't be there. The young lady (blonde, around 18 years old) huffed when I came to the till with a handful of deli items. I actually had to ask if they were still open because that 's the energy that came across. I felt rushed, there was no eye contact or chat, I tried to make light of the awkwardness I felt but she never cracked a smile. John 's isn 't cheap, I spent about £30 on different deli products. In 1 arm I had my baby and the other I was balancing salami, cheeses, olives etc yet I was never offered a bag!!! So strange. She immediately walked away once I was served without a 'thank you or bye '. I left feeling deflated as I really like to support the locals. On this occasion I wish I had shopped else where. Disappointing."

The Mitre Inn

➤ 2 The Square, EX16 8AE, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pub • Steak • Fusion • British

"We have been frequent visitors to this restaurant and have always enjoyed the food, but our last visit was very disappointing. We ordered the Beef Vindaloo, which we were warned would be hot (a warning we didn't find necessary). Unfortunately, the dish was extremely dry, making the rice and curry almost inedible. There was no heat or spice at all. We questioned if there has been a change in chefs. Additionally, the ice-cream was not fresh and tasted like it had been thawed and refrozen multiple times. This meal was supposed to be a special Christmas outing with our family."

Han Court

➤ Fremington, EX31 2NX, North Devon, United Kingdom

Ribs • Pizza • Drinks • Chicken

"Popped in with friends who recommended the all you can eat buffet, I wish we had not of bothered. The decor has not changed since it was opened in the 80's. The food was disgusting. Vegetable Spring Roll was dripping with grease. The chicken wings were coated in granulated sugar???? The ribs were plain with a bit of sweet and sour sauce dribbled on them. The main courses were too sweet. The seasonal vegetables were bland. The beef Chow Mein was weird, I think the beef was boiled??? Nothing about the food was to my liking. All you can eat buffet £19.50,not worth the money"

Pelican

➤ 1 Oakland Park S, North Devon, United Kingdom

Tea • Fish • Vegan • Drinks

"have been for a few clicks and gather them away recently. the prices are still reasonable, but the quality of food, although good, is a bit short of the standard backside when they won national prices. the chips could be more careful with something. between brushed and fryed (removal of eyes and rest shell) and the dough can be understated at a occasion and soggy the side, still a beautiful meal. the real problem that must be addressed is the fact that the customers are still kept outside to order and wait for their food that is in the dry but no fish and chips for me when it rains this is the reason why this is not a 2 star evaluation. We should live with covid now, not run away. Despite this approach, no employees wear ppe, and there are no signs for regular hand cleaning that makes cross-contamination possible. added that the restaurant is not packed with any proof of social need, this is surely just an attempt to see something to do. it is certainly confusing. my advice is to click and collect, as eating is ready for the right time and is always beautiful and hot. if the problems with the problem of streuung and access were not present, this would have got 4 stars if the chips had been up to the old standard, it would have been 5. Finally, the workers are amazing and do a great work in view of the additional and my view after unnecessary additional pressure, they are expected to be under"

Billy Budds

➤ 12 Hobbs Hill, EX33 1LZ, North Devon, United Kingdom

Pub • Pizza • Spanish • Vegetarian

"Friends had various burgers, which were served with fries and slaw. I wasn't that hungry, so went for a portion of cheesey chips. Unfortunately, the image i had of these in my mind didn't match with what arrived at the table. They turned out to be a large bowl of fries with squirty cheese on top. Im sure some people will have loved these, but not me. However, the meals had by friends were hot, plentiful and yummy."
