The pre-theatre menu was a lovely, fuss-free choice. The hake was delicious and the service was so friendly.

A really nice spot for plant-based options. I had the vegan calzone, which was tasty and filling. The staff were so friendly, and the seating was comfortable - made for a relaxed lunch.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The place is spotlessly clean, and service was quick. It&#39;s a decent spot for a straightforward meal.

The burger was cooked to order, not overdone. Good selection of toppings to customise. Solid choice for a quick business lunch near the office.

Really liked the relaxed feel here, and the staff were very friendly. The separate function room looks like it would be great for events.

Popped in for a late lunch. Had the steak pie, proper comfort food. The gravy was spot on. Caught the end of the football match on their screen, which was a nice surprise. Good portion for the price.

The Italian host knows his wine. Had a lovely glass of red with some excellent charcuterie. The view from the terrace is a real bonus.

Cosy little French spot, ideal for a relaxed dinner. The coq au vin was spot on, and the wine list had a few really interesting Burgundies that paired beautifully. A bit on the quiet side, but that suited us just fine.

Been coming here for years, the lamb madras is the one I keep ordering. Tender, packed with flavour, just the right amount of heat. Never had a bad one.

The wine list was a real highlight. Food was great, felt like a proper chef&#39;s menu. Good value even if service was a bit slow.

Menu&#39;s got a good range, even for veggies. Chips are proper homemade, nice and crispy. Quick service too, perfect for a fast lunch.

Found this place on Mayflower St. Their Thursday dosa banquet is the real deal. Crispy, flavourful, even better than some I&#39;ve had abroad. A proper find.

Great spot for a pre-theatre meal. The set menu had plenty of options, and parking nearby was easy and cheap.

The Sunday roast is decent value, and I like that they use local produce. The beef was pretty good, though the potatoes could have been a bit crispier. A solid choice for a relaxed weekend lunch.

Came for the view from the terrace, didn&#39;t leave disappointed. Watched the boats on Plymouth Sound over lunch. Food was decent, a bit pricey maybe. But that view, wow.

Breakfast starts early, which is a plus. The food is decent, nothing fancy but it hits the spot. Price felt fair for what you get.

Popped in for lunch on a sunny day. Sophie was really helpful with my dietary stuff, which made it easy. The food was spot on. Just a nice, relaxed meal.

Been ordering from them for 15 years, never a letdown. The food is just reliably good every single time. That&#39;s what keeps us coming back.

Lovely family-run spot. The staff are genuinely warm, which makes a difference. Had a glass of their house red with the pasta&mdash;simple but a nice pairing for a relaxed evening.

Nice bright pub, feels clean. Staff were friendly and cleared tables quickly even when it was busy. That&rsquo;s a plus.

Ordered the burger on the app for a quick lunch. It arrived fast, which is key for me. The burger itself was really flavourful, juicy and hit the spot. Staff were nice and efficient. Solid choice when you&#39;re in a hurry.

Been here a few times, the food&#39;s always solid. The spaghetti bolognese has a nice, rich sauce. But that quadruple chocolate cookie dough... that&#39;s the real star. Seriously, save room for it.

Had dinner on the deck last week. The river view is the main event here, really nice watching the boats and the ferry. Food was fine, nothing fancy, but the setting makes it. Good spot for a quiet evening.

Such a cosy little freehouse. The staff are lovely, and the draft beer is spot on. The food? Honestly, a solid 10/10. That&#39;s rare for me.

Lovely old pub, very cosy inside. The staff were so friendly and attentive, which made the whole evening really relaxed. I had the fish and chips, it was good. A nice, comfortable spot for a quiet meal.

The decor is really nice, modern but still feels cosy. Sat by the window and it was a lovely spot to watch the world go by. Food was good, service was quick. Prices are fair for the location on the edge of the town shops.

Lovely stay. The room was cosy and well presented, with nice local toiletries. Food is cooked fresh to order, which was great. Staff were welcoming and the dog-friendly policy is a big plus. Just a note that the breakfast service can get a little slow when they&#39;re busy.

Beef curry was spot on, really tender. Chips were a huge portion, couldn&#39;t finish them. Perfect for a quick, filling lunch. Got my food in about 5 minutes.
