Best pub in Ivybridge. Always gave Legend and Tribute plus an ever changing guest ale. Good atmosphere and seems to have a good rotation of regulars. Menu looks good though not tried it yet.

We stayed here for close location to the polar Express train ride, excellent location, excellent staff service, also had a meal which was great food and breakfast, would definitely recommend and would stay again. Thank you.

We realise that this restaurant cannot provide a large menu especially during the autumn /winter but on our evening the fish choice was not on (replaced with a lazy prawn dish) and out of two desserts the crumble was also not available! Feel this is lazy as there is so much fish available locally and the excuses to not provide an apple crumble is in fact rather lazy from the kitchen. If you only want to offer pizzas and burgers, fine but don’t disappoint people with omissions.

We have just visited Brown's Hotel in Dartmouth. The hotel has a wonderful ambience. Its individuality and relaxing comfort clearly show an eye to detail (and a great ear for music). We received a warm welcome and the staff were consistently friendly, kind and helpful. The Hotel is ideally situated, close to everything you will want to do. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, again with an eye to detail and individuality, providing for all your creature comforts - and always making that extra effort to anticipate guest needs. The beds are very large and very comfortable. Everything is spotlessly clean. It was a real pleasure to visit a hotel reflecting the owners' tastes, rather than the ersatz similarity offered by most hotels. We look forward to visiting Brown's again, possibly linking our visit to one of the seasonal/musical events put on by the hotel or by the Town itself. Just as an extra note. We went over the ferry to visit Coleton Fishacre Gardens. We used the 'Lower Ferry'. That was a wonderful experience just in itself! The skill of the skipper, guiding the ferry from one shore to the other was quite remarkable. (Much more interesting than the larger cable ferry at the other end of the town!!) We recommend Brown's Hotel, Dartmouth very strongly.
