Recommended to stop here for breakfast on the way to Cornwall. What a breath of fresh air away from the service stations and the motorway. Only 5 mins from the M5 and well worth the detour. Great breakfast! Also a fantastic butcher and shop to tempt you to buy lots of treats!
Darts Farm – TopshamWhat a great spot for lunch. Panoramic views from the manicured gardens. Interesting menu and good drinks selection. Highly recommend!
Elephants Nest Inn – TavistockWe were visiting Plymouth and wanted Oysters and found Bistro One via Sugarvine. We were offered Oysters both Raw and Grilled and promptly devoured a dozen each. Fab! Our wine was a surprise as we were recommended to try a Sicilian Catarratto - never heard of it but what a wine it turned out to be. Lemon scented and perfect with the sea-flavoured Oysters. Couldn't have been better, very simple and very fresh. Job done, we look forward to our next visit.
Bistro One – PlymouthThe best Indian food in Tiverton. The service is excellent and always served with a smile. Eating in the restaurant in an enjoyable experience and you are made to feel very welcome. The only problem is the drinks tab can get quite expensive. Out of 10 I would give the food 7, price 6, overall experience 7. Well worth a visit.
Gate Of India – TivertonDuring our recent break near Tiverton we struggled to find a good restaurant until we stumbled across the Cellar on the Internet. We thought we'd give it a try and were not disappointed. The food was first class - freshly cooked from local ingredients and the service super friendly. The whole evening was superb - a lovely end to our holiday. we will be back next time we are in the area.
The Cellar Restaurant – TivertonExcellent, found this restaurant at the beginning of our holiday luckily, ate there several times during the week and were never disappointed. One of the best steaks I have ever had.
Camelot Medieval Restaurant – Torquayhighly recommended great food good prices and good atmosphere kids loved it
Route 38 – PlymouthFantastic, beautiful home cooked carvery, staff fantastic. Location so clean and friendly. Our favourite place for food and drink BUT you do need to book for Sunday lunch - it's so popular
Ruffwell Inn – Exeteri have eaten there 3 times and the food was plentiful but sadly as with a lot of indian restaurants in England they put heat instead of flavour. chillies rather than spices. the staff were very friendly and the radway beer was excellent.
Sidmouth Tandoori – Sidmouth11a doesn't look anything special from outside but what a great place inside. Well worth a visit for the pizza.
11a Church Street Restaurant and Bar – ExeterReally fresh, delicious fish and warm and light, well cooked and flavoured rice - would have been pleased to receive this sushi in Japan. A cut above several London-based restaurants. Great attention to detail in the dishes, this isn't Japanese food by numbers, was a very pleasurable dining experience over and above satisfying a washoku craving! Had lunch menu - good value. Prawn tempura light and crunchy, generous portion, tofu salad delicate, authentic flavours but showed originality in presentation. Worth seeking out for quality of cooking and ingredients, compares well with other local restaurants in price range.
Steaks N Sushi – ExeterOur party of 5 adults, 4 children went to Route 38 tonight. First class. Great food, great atmosphere, great value. Highly recommended.
Route 38 – PlymouthHighly recommended. Fresh food cooked in groundnut oil! Lovely would travel the 2.5 hours to lynton just to taste the fish and chips again!!!
Esplanade Fish Bar – LyntonFood was excellent, Accommodation more than comfortable, Open log fires, leather sofas and a good beer selection,and all the space around you you could need.Well worth the visit any time of year.
