"We were staying about 50m from this takeaway and had fish and chips one evening. Not the best I have ever had but certainly not the worst. Good fish and batter and a sensible amount of chips. The method of ordering was a bit chaotic; you order at the till and there is a gaggle of people standing in the road outside waiting for the order number to be called. When it is busy it looks difficult to see where the ordering line from the people waiting for collection. I suspect you could be there for quite a while not knowing which line you are in"

"During our stroll in Barnstaple, we made a delightful stop at a charming cafe for some cake and coffee. The owner was friendly and helpful, providing excellent recommendations on which treats to try. They even offered to take some pictures of us, which was a nice touch. The cakes were absolutely delicious!"

"Wandering in town and have 10 minutes to kill. My usual place (not costa) was mega busy. So thought I will do a Costa. Mistake! First off I don 't mind a queue. The inefficency of the staff is what was causing the queue. The staff member being Barista was with the gentleman ahead of me and kept asking what the drinks were. Fine it is a big order.....nope 2 drinks. The staff member then is reminded that he hadn 't paid yet. I then placed my order, cortado and a croissant. The barista then had to ask how to make a cortado once they were in the know, the coffee was ground and the milk steamed. She then realised that there were no cortado glasses! Her colleague went off in search of one, so I thought. She apologised for the delay only for the colleague to return empty handed. When asked there was cortado glasses on the worktop behind her. The best bit.......the ground coffee had been left in the portafilter for the duration. It was then used and so was the milk which had also been standing waiting. Hey presto a luke warm cortado! The croissant was stale, I mean like yesterdays bake stale..... Not a good experience. I enjoy my italian coffee experiences, but this was not one of them."

"Had lunch with friends here and found the food to be of high quality and a reasonable price to for the area. Allergen information is well listed on the menu and the chef was happy to change my friends ordered dish to accommodate her. Wasn't a really warm day so we sat inside. which was a shame because the outdoor area looks very good. Pub is atmospheric and they let us use the pool table for free. Overall enjoyed and the only slight negative was the place was showing signs of general wear and tear. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!"

"I had read about the Chichester Arms via accommodation info as I was visiting Bishops Taunton the North Devon area for a holiday. As this pub was conveniently located on the same road to where I was staying. I popped in confirmed dogs were allowed asked whether a booking was needed in order to eat, I was advised booking was advisable but there was availability for that evening depending on the time I intended to eat. I was flexible with my timings so was happy to take a table knowing it was booked from 7.30pm so there was time for me to eat and vacate it before the booked time. I came back approx 40 mins after my initial enquiry was shown to the back section of the pub where it seemed most tables were set for larger groups but was happy to have a table free. On looking at the main course menu, there was an extensive choice available but only 2 vegetarian options. I asked my server about both of these and decided to chose the veggie chilli. There were no extras on the specials board as noted 1 shown as Spinach Ricotta cannelloni but this was the other dish already listed in the mains section so no additional veggie options for choice. The chosen meal was tasty enough but I feel there could have been more of the actual chilli as it felt like a bowl of nachos with melted cheese, 2 servings of salsa, 1 serving of sour cream and guacamole and then the chilli in the middle. Although there was no issue with the service, I think the options for vegetarians should be widened and re-consider the balance on a meal like the one I chose as not convinced it was worth the price for what was mainly nacho crisps with a few toppings, it’s possible the spinach and ricotta cannelloni may have been better value for money. I was grateful that this pub was dog friendly and that I could be accommodated and have a reasonable meal of sorts after a long drive to North Devon without having to venture further a field on my first day in the area. My overall rating is boosted by the service as had that not been welcoming, I would have said my visit was ‘average’"

"We have eaten at the Red Barn many many times but since COVID they have changed their menu and booking system. In my opinion it is for the better. The service was excellent and we had the best meal we’ve ever had there. A smaller menu but the quality of the food was fabulous. Looking forward to returning there when we are next in Woolacombe"

"We popped in late on a Tuesday evening having arrived for a week's holiday. We weren't actually sure if we'd get served as we were worried that they were closing for the evening. However, we were greeted with a smile and seated quickly. The food was delicious, fresh, hot, and a good size, all washed down with a lovely local beverage. I had the peri-peri king prawns and my wife had a pizza. Well worth the money and we'll be back before the week is out I'm sure. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area."

Giovanni's

"Everyone loves an Italian and this one is more authentic than the pastiche chains. I felt it was going to be good when on booking I could hear the unmistakable Italian debate in the background! We were not disappointed, it’s not luxury dining by any stretch, but good quality, well prepared and tasty. House wine was also very palatable. Between us we had muscles, pizza, pasta, gnocchi and a calzone. All great. Staff welcoming and friendly. Worth a visit. Ciao!"

"Decent coffee and cakes and good wheelchair access, no toilets but a good public loo is only about 30 yards away. Also dogs are allowed at the outside tables. Please note, all the other eating establishments we looked at in Lynmouth seemed not to have wheelchair access however on the way back to the car we saw one round the corner facing the sea which claimed good disabled access, we had discounted this on first passing as it is located upstairs, presumably they have a decent lift."

Lush Bar Restaurant

"I first came across Lush Bar Restaurant in Barnstaple during a holiday in October 2022. I had tried to quickly research somewhere that did a tasty Sunday roast and also allowed dogs and this place came up had decent reviews. On that first visit last year, I stopped by and asked if a table was available and was quickly accommodated at a large table inside near the window. I was clearly lucky on that day with there being a spare table. I ordered their vegetarian roast which came with the usual trimmings (roast potatoes, root vegetables and a large Yorkshire Pudding and extras to include green beans, cabbage and a generous portion of cauliflower cheese. As I am holiday again in the area, I had decided I would like to re visit and have Sunday roast here considering it was still offered. I popped in 2 days earlier to make a booking and was advised to book online and requested the lower bar area as this is the section that allows dog. I arrived 5 10 mins early today as like to be on time and was told there were no tables free despite having just accommodated another table of 2 with a dog in that section (they had not booked). I explained once again that I had booked the lower bar area and was happy to wait for the time slot booked, the front of house lady checked my booking details and asked me to wait. I saw her asking another table of 2 to move to the restaurant area so that I could be given their table which was in the section I had booked. Therefore the initial experience on this repeat visit was not ideal or friendly service from front of house lady. I ordered the veggie roast again which I enjoyed but not as much as last time. The actual nut roast lacked flavour, the potatoes was over done and not as soft inside, less veggie gravy provided (probably could have tried to ask for me) and reduced portion size for the cauliflower cheese. This is clear from the photos from last years visit when compared to today. On this visit I also stayed for a dessert and chose the Lush brownie this was a nice choice and was not only well presented but tasty. Getting the bill today required having to ask twice so service was not ideal today but would still consider choosing Lush next time. I think customers who have booked should not be left feeling they are being turned away."

"Unfortunately, we were unable to sample the food and drinks that had been recommended to us. We arrived at 10am, the advertised opening time, only to find the lights off and a closed sign on the door. A staff member came out and would have ignored us if I hadn't asked about their opening time. He mentioned it was actually 10.30am, but when I pointed out that it was listed as 10am online, he simply said, "yeah, we are a bit slow today." Disappointed, we decided to take the cliff railway down to Lynmouth and enjoy a delightful breakfast at the Ancient Mariner instead."

"One of my favourite takeaways, all the food tastes delicious and the service is great! Decided that I would order online and called to get an update, the person who picked up the phone was lovely and just explained that they were busy so the waiting times were slightly longer- it’s definitely worth the wait! Staff are always so friendly. Definitely would recommend Ketchup to everyone!"

"We booked through booking site which sometimes overages the hotels but this time it was spot on. There are steps to be negotiated although a ready hand with our case was given but if this is an issue just settle to eat and stay elsewhere but if you do you will miss a treat. The ROMs are modern well furnished with state of the art bathrooms. A nod to keeping it original the sash window is renovated but single glazed you will hear the fun outside but come closing time it was silence. The food is really good, you do have to order at the bar and the menu is chalked up on boards but then you won't ever be waiting and a request for wine comes with an instant bottle and glasses over the bar, if this isn't your thing well you are missing the point, it's a public and spotless but restored to look like a local from days past as is the exterior which matches this tiny village would you really want gastro pub garish grey. Like everything good or really good it reveals its secrets one by one, try the home made cakes in place of biscuits or flask of real milk. Glad to have discovered and to share"

"On a cool autumn morning with dew still on the windows, the scent of the sea in the air was captivating. Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted by a mix of aromas - the warm cafe air wrapped around me, while the enticing smells of bacon and coffee filled the room. I sat down and the friendly server took my order with a smile, patiently noting down my extensive breakfast cravings. As I waited, time seemed to stand still until my meal arrived, a hearty breakfast that I had been eagerly anticipating. The bacon sandwich placed before me was simply delicious, and I savored every bite. I will definitely return to this charming spot, a memory I look forward to sharing during the holiday season. Ilfracombe, I adore you."

"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."

"We visited a wonderful tea room recently that had just been taken over by new owners. This family-run business serves delicious food and coffee in a cozy environment. The menu was full of tasty treats, from foot long Bratwurst to birthday cake slushies. Despite having some picky eaters in our group, including children with special dietary needs, the staff handled everything with ease and kindness. The small size of the place meant we had a great interaction with other customers, making for a friendly atmosphere. The efficient service and obvious passion of the owners for their business left a lasting impression on us all. My daughter was even inspired to leave her first ever tip, thanks to the wonderful experience we had at this charming tea room."
