We stayed in the village for a week and then saw the pub did a pizza night. A table was booked on line and have to say had a great evening and the pizza was amazing. Staff very helpful and the pizza's were 11 out of 10. Great choice and excellent value. Service was quick and pizzas were fresh and simply delicious. A fantastic find

We just by chance ended up at his charming country pub from a long walk from Ringmore. luckily for us it was Open Mic nite. the food we had was great pub grub. But the quality of the locals musicianship was off the scale. I can't remember the Guiarist names but as a perfessional guitarist myself i was awestuck with the level of quality. on that note i'm coming back next Open mic nite again. Wow made my year,

Having booked before reading the reviews I was a little concerned about the availability of food. I duly wrote an E-mail to check but receiving no response assumed there was no problem. Arriving at what was undeniably a lovely old pub, we were told that the it was the chef's day off so no evening meal. The rooms are in a somewhat down at heel building opposite. Our room was very basic but seemed clean. The price was a good £ 40 more than it should have been. In the bathroom we noticed there was no soap. going back to the bar we were told that soap wasn't provided. That is a first for me. The previous evening we had asked for an early breakfast, 8.00am as we had to catch the Bantham ferry. We were assured the pub door would be open. Going down at 8 it was locked and remained so until we gave up and left at 8.30am despite the fact that a light was on upstairs. So no evening meal or breakfast despite the fact we'd paid for the latter. The impression I have is that they don't really want to accommodate people but just keep the pub side going. I would recommend that anyone considering the Dolphin assists them in that respect. It could be so much better and the accommodation that followed just accentuated how poor this was.

We had an amazing meal here. The menu included an 8oz sirloin which was cooked to perfection, as I asked, rare. Mega compliments to the chef which wete passed on. Lovely ambience which is all credit to the new owners. They made us very welcome. What a gem of a find.

Had the most delicious Sunday lunch today. Husband and I both chose lamb and it was beautifully cooked. Absolutely scrummy. Veg, Yorkshire pudding, roasties and veg were all so good. We followed with sticky toffee pudding with ice cream. Just so good. Highly recommended.

The Dolphin Inn is set in a pretty South Hams village just outside Kingsbridge. After a lovely coastal walk, coming to the Dolphin for food & drink is just perfect. This is a village pub with everything you’d expect from a very traditional public house.

We arrived after a 2 hr walk from Bigbury- on-Sea with a VERY DIRTY Springer Spaniel. I asked the landlord to refill our drinking bottles and explained that I was attempting to wash off our muddy dog, he kindly offered the use of a hose pipe which was really appreciated. The food was great and the pub itself is full of character. We had a genuine and lovely welcome and will definitely revisit the next time we are in the area. The current landlord and landlady have only been running the pub for 4 weeks and if my experience is anything to go by they will have a thriving business in no time.

The excuse was a lack of staff. BUT the beer was stale but not as stale as the breakfast muffin. The room had inadequate lighting. A broken shower tile was hanging off the wall. There were no toiletries. There were no meals on offer. The towels were very old and scratchy. Breakfast was almost inedible with old, tired fruit and a defrosted muffin. It was so disappointing since we were looking forward to staying there. As walkers, this was a very poor place to stay.
