The best restaurants serving British food in North Devon South West

Nice bar, lovely staff but half the draft beers off as run out, can’t see fridge options as no lights and wine warm as fridges not on!

Three decades on and we still love it - best place ever. Don’t change a thing. And not a rickety chair in sight (if you know you know) 5*

Great cafe and great service. Went during a busy period and the food was excellent. Reasonably priced too. Will be back!

A lovely friendly little cafe with lots of choice. Delicious breakfast and drinks ❤️ grandson loved his hot choc! Would go again for sure!

The Sunday carvery is so yummy. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. When dishing up our Sunday carvery the staff behind the counter encouraged my fussy child to try a new veg which was lovely of them to do. We’ve been here quite a few times as we live locally and will continue to come back many time in the future. Thank you to you all :)

Over night good stay breakfast good

I ordered gammon steak with chunky chips, pineapple, egg and peas, my partner ordered burger and chunky chips. Chips were not chunky and were over cooked and greasy, gammon was tough and greasy, no peas and burger was greasy. We both felt nauseous all evening! Would definitely not eat there again or recommend !!

Smell of bad fats on entry, very cramped and unpleasant seating area, unfriendly staff cuttlery not properly dry, food was awful. Avoid at all costs !

Called in on Saturday to visit the museum and have some breakfast. The cafe is comfortable with really lovely staff and there's a decent selection of sandwiches and snacks. Breakfast is a sausage bap or a bacon bap and all the food is pre packed although the coffee was decent. The bacon roll wasn't awful by any means but this is a busy airfield and there's so much potential to do better. I understand its largely weather dependent but on Saturday there were 2 spitfires, a tiger Moth and a Stampe doing pleasure flights, 2 wing walk aircraft operating, skydivers, electric bike hirers, cyclists and plenty of observers plus the crews. So much potential for a great cafe rather than an average one. Would I go back? Yes I would but it could be better.

This owner obviously never reads his reviews as he has not changed in ten years - and the rest. A lady and her special needs daughter that we had met earlier on our walk came into the garden for tea and asked first if she could use the bathroom adding that it was "a bit desperate". Very rudely the proprietor pointed out that the only toilets were all ensuite and his customers use the public convenience across the river. There was no further comment or apology and he returned his attention to another couple who were not left alone for a second. Endless flow of advice on where to go and what to see. I was grateful we were ignored as that is not something I would appreciate; my companion enjoyed her lemon drizzle - she has a very sweet tooth, I had to leave my coffee and walnut as I don't, ( have a sweet tooth). The tea was weak. ( £15.00 ) It is a lovely spot but location does not make up for bad service.
