Good spot for a game and a pint. The covered outdoor area has plenty of seating, and the weekend crowd is friendly.

Staff were super helpful when we turned up with a big group and no booking. They shuffled tables around without any fuss, made us feel welcome straight away. Really appreciated that.

The fish and chips were spot on. Light, crisp batter and the cod was cooked perfectly.

Food was lovely, and the staff were just the sweetest. We were a big group catching up, and they didn&#39;t mind us lingering at all. Made the whole evening so easy and relaxed.

Sammy and the team are so friendly, it really puts you at ease. The scampi and chips were lovely, and I appreciated the fresh rocket in the side salad. Just a really comfortable spot for a relaxed lunch.

Decent family meal. Fish and chips were solid, good portion. Staff were polite and sorted out a minor order mix-up quickly. Convenient location for us.

Popped in for the happy hour deal - two cocktails for &pound;14! Such a fab little spot for a catch-up. The drinks were really good, and the place is super clean. Perfect for a quick drink with friends after work.

Decent pub, nice vibe. The kids&#39; meals are a decent size for the price, which is a relief these days. My little one finished his fish fingers and chips, so that&#39;s a win.

A reliable spot for a quick breakfast. The coffee is good, and the service is efficient even when it&#39;s busy. I appreciate how they keep things moving smoothly, so you&#39;re never waiting too long for a table or your order. Makes for a very easy, comfortable meal.

Cosy little spot, tables are always spotless. Booked a week ahead for a Friday dinner. The grilled sea bream was just right, skin crispy, flesh moist. Portion felt a bit small for the price, but the cooking was spot on.

Their Sunday roast is a proper one. The pork belly was spot on - tender, with a good bit of crackling. All the trimmings were there, and done right. One of the better pub roasts I&rsquo;ve had in a while.

Sunday roast was solid. Good portion, well-cooked meat and veg. Fair price for what you get. Place is relaxed, saw a few families with kids and dogs. No fuss, does the job.

A nice spot for morning coffee or evening drinks. The outdoor seating is pleasant, though it got a bit busy later on.

Loved the character here, especially the rustic beams. The wine list was a pleasant surprise, with some interesting local options.

Great service by a generally young, enthusiastic team.Well priced wine for the quality at a very sensible mark-up.We can&rsquo;t fault the food and it was very consistent across a variety of dishes.We would definitely recommend as a great local business to support.

Rich and his team provided an amazing experience during our brunch. The drinks were plentiful, and the food was delicious. It&#39;s the best brunch we&#39;ve had, and we can&#39;t wait to come back!

The restaurant was very busy when we arrived for our booking and so we had to wait around 15 minutes for our table.  There was plenty of variety at the carvery with several meats and lots of vegetables. The food was delicious and the service was friendly.

The carvery&#39;s a good deal with the Blue Light Card. The dining area feels spacious and relaxed, which was nice.

The food is freshly and well cooked using great ingredients. The menu has something for everyone. We received a good greeting on arrival and the surroundings were comfortable and well tended. Service was cordial and the staff very pleasant and informative.  We thoroughly enjoyed our luncheon in the pleasing surroundings.

The terrace view is lovely, but honestly, the portion sizes for the price are a bit disappointing. Ordered the grilled sea bass and it felt quite small for what you pay. Nice spot, but not the best value.

Lovely chilled vibe for a Sunday. Carly was just so warm and attentive, really made us feel looked after. That kind of genuine service is a nice touch.

Came for the Sunday roast. That roast beef was just spot on, really tender and flavourful. The walnut brownie after was a nice touch too. Good spot for a lazy weekend lunch.

The cask ales are the main draw. They had a local bitter that was perfectly kept, not too warm, with a nice malty body and a dry finish. The lager options are decent but it&#39;s the real ales that keep me coming back.

A bit pricey, but you can taste the quality. That gorgonzola tagliatelle was the star for me - the pasta was spot on and the sauce so creamy.

The carvery had a nice selection of vegetables today, all very fresh and not overcooked. The roast potatoes were crispy on the outside, which I really appreciate. Good to see some healthier sides available alongside the meats.

Popped in for a quick dinner. The chicken tikka masala was pretty good, and the naan was decent. Good value for a tenner.

The room was a good size and spotless, which was nice. Plenty of space to spread out without feeling cramped. Handy for exploring Sidmouth, too.

The wine was chilled just right. Had a glass with the steak, really hit the spot. Good list to choose from.

Had the Sunday roast. The beef was very tender, the Yorkshire puddings were pretty good. Pub was spotless, nice touch with the fresh flowers. A decent Sunday lunch.

Arrived an hour early, no problem food lovely sea bass was fresh and plenty of it. steak cooked to perfection my husband ordered it medium rare and that is how it came. A lot of places he orders medium rare and it comes well done. Nothing too much trouble with the service. Altogether a very pleasurable experience
