"Now the shackles of a large pub chain have been cast off, Nick runs in my view the best local freehouse in the area. It is a welcoming village pub serving an excellent selection of local real ales at excellent prices at the time of writing £3.30 for an excellent pint of Gun Dog direct from the cellar.In winter there is a welcoming fire in the bar, and the pub serves good simple pub grub at great prices nothing fancy or pretentious, just the sort of place to pop down to if you can't be bothered to cook one evening.There is a lot going on skittles many evenings, a pub quiz even a ukulele evening on a Monday night. A great place to meet up with friends and/or locals. Sometimes there is football on the TV, but when that's not happening the TV disappears behind a purpose built cover in a very sympathetic way which transforms the bar back to a welcoming local retreat.It's so good to see the pub now as a freehouse; it's well worth a visit."

Had a spot on roast dinner, beef with all the trimmings. Gravy was thick and tasty definitely did not come out of a packet. Staff were friendly and helpful. Family friendly we will be going back soon

We stopped at the Dog and Donkey whilst on a walk from Exmouth via the coastal path then inland and bag on the old rail track. Very welcome break local cider (the real stuff with no fizz) and good garlic bread, beside the open log fire! View menu

Great pub good selection of beers and ciders, friendly bar staff. locals happy to chat to us holiday makers, which was really nice. Drank in there several times over the weekend. Did find the Sunday lunch disappointing but that's personal preference I guess.

This is a traditional village pub with log fire, beer out of barrels, wooden floors, pool table etc. My daughter ordered her usual chicken nuggets and chips and I had a vegetarian lasagne. My lasagne was delicious and completely home made, a nice change and will definitely return.

Are there for a second time for a roast at the weekend. Lovely welcome from the guys working there. Nice and clean venue with a great pub vibe. They’ve started to put live music on as well here and really giving the locals a good venue to go and enjoy some time. Great work, great food and great service. View menu

We made a reservation but on arrival it was clear a table hadn't been reserved for us. We were given the worst table in the pub and upon asking to change were given a lack lustre response. In fact we were not even given a welcome. Eventually we were given another table but under duress. Food was OK although the gravy runny and tasteless and the cauliflower cheese didn't have much cheese in it. The pub dingy and dirty.

Had lunch there today with friends, we have visited many times before and it has always been brilliant. Today a very sour faced lady hardly bothered to speak to us at all behind the bar we ordered drinks and food no smiles or welcome at all! My steak and kidney pudding off the specials board needed a kango hammer to cut through it, and the mash and veg definitely seen better days! My friend had the scampi and chips, the chips being hard and not cooked properly and scampi having soggy crumb on the outside! In the 15 years we have been visiting this pub it was the worst experience ever! The only good thing about it was the fire.
