ASK – ExeterDiscovered Harry's here on Sugarvine, and was impressed by the positive reviews, so decided to try it with a couple of friends. Was back within the next week with my partner who was also extremely delighted by the quality of the food, being a chef himself. The ambience and overall experience offered at Harry's is probably the best you will find in Exeter. Our favourite restaurant so far!!
Harrys Restaurant – ExeterExcellent restaurant. Good atmosphere, attentive service and excellent food. Preferred it to Rick Stein's place in Padstow! Best sweet I have eaten in a long time and the 5 course £32 deal is a good one. Took a client who regularly eats in the best restaurants nationwide and it impressed him!
Quay 33 – PlymouthThe Best Indian in Torquay if not the whole of Devon. We had a mix of different dishes and all were fantastic I had the Lamb Pasander which was outstanding probably the best I have ever had. I cant think of a better restaurant. The service was great even though it was completely full, there was loads of people waiting for a table at the bar and I can understand why. Great food great service cant recommend it enough.
Mahabharat Balti House – TorquayI had an amazing time at this restaurant, I am a vegan so called before hand to check what I could eat, instead of the usual huff I am greeted with the person who answered the phone got the chef who patiently went through the menu with me. The remembered on the night as well and made sure that not even any dips that usually came with dishes had dairy in them. I was so impressed!!!!
Yukisan – PlymouthAs a local who has frequented this pub several times over the years, I'm now glad to say that it consistently serves up very good pub food, including the largest fish and chips ever! No pretences, no fancy ambience, just a friendly local that does good pub food.
Eddystone Inn – PlymouthA lovely old pub with an amazing atmosphere. The old firehouse has great local ales and home made food. Its virtually candle lit in the evenings and townie free. That? because it? difficult to find. Truly Exeter? best old pub
Old Fire House The – ExeterMy partner and I always make a special effort to go to the black horse inn every time we go on holiday to Devon infact we feel our holiday isn't complete without our annual visit here. Good home cooking at good prices. We especially enjoy it when the open fire is roaring as we always visit in November.
Black Horse Inn – TorringtonI love this place. The food is great, you get big portions at decent prices, fantastic views and a really chilled out atmosphere. Infact my partner proposed to me here last year so it holds special memories for us. We will be back in November to celebrate with one of their great burgers!!!
Red Barn – WoolacombeI've just had my 30th birthday celebration here and I'd say it was one of my best!! Definitely the best Chinese restaurant in Devon, excellent staff and a friendly atmosphere. I have been to many restaurants in the area and this place truly meets all expectations. The food was outstanding, full of flavour and very tasty! They have just launched a buffet night on Mondays and the quality of food isn't skipped on either. I recommend this place to anyone.
Golden Pond – ExeterWe were made to feel very welcome by the owners - nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent especially from the Specials Board and the meet was delicious and sourced locally. After visiting the Mitre by chance, we came back time and again whilst holidaying locally
Mitre Inn – TivertonWe have eaten at the Dartmoor in three times and the standard has been the came it was gritty now have rooms but we are not able to stay as no dogs allowed in the rooms (shame) but thy are allowed in the bar. Great place all round.
Dartmoor Inn – OkehamptonWell, what a lovely pub/restaurant. Lovely thatched building nestling in the valley. Staff and ambience brilliant. Food both in bar and restaurant excellent. Lovely selection of wines and beers. Very popular so you need to book!
Linny Inn The – Newton AbbotI am surprised that nobody has recommended this lovely pub/restaurant before. Really good menu with specials board and various 'theme' evenings. Food always excellent and staff very friendly and helpful. Good selection of wines. Lovely building with great garden for summer evenings. Would highly recommend
Church House Inn The – PaigntonWe always enjoy eating here, in my mind it is one of the best restaurants in Devon, if not the best in North Devon. We had a starter of cappuccino of Jerusalem artichoke which arrived looking just like a real coffee cappuccino - complete with froth, a dusting of truffle which resembled the chocolate powder and three cubes of freeze dried ceps to imitate the sugar lumps. This set the scene for the night admirably. My main of crusted lamb loin was expertly cooked and more than enough. My partner had the best goat's cheese starter ever followed by polenta with sun dried tomatoes and artichokes - all delicious. We couldn't decide on the puddings so we ordered three! A lavender creme brulee with rhubard sorbet, a chocolate marquis and selection of home-made icecreams - all were superb.
Courtyard Restaurant – WoolacombeStopped off for lunch after reading the reviews here, sat in the rear garden with sea views. A couple of glasses of lovely rose and a salad of artichoke and sweet peppers and my partner had a huge salmon & crab fishcake-both were delicious. Didn? want to be rude so we ordered what was the best chocolate fondant I have ever had-much better than Mr Ramsays. The summer berry jelly was also delicious. Job done we moved on.
Kings Arms – DartmouthI was encouraged to make the detour here by friends and they were not wrong. The drive to the pretty village was worth it, let alone the superb hospitality that we received. It was nice to be in such a friendly welcoming pub where everyone was relaxed and chatty. It was also wonderful to find somewhere where we could have Sunday lunch and take the dog (unfortunately for her there were no leftovers as it was all too good!) The ordered all three courses because they sounded delicious and were under £13 for all three! As a vegetarian it is very difficult to find a decent Sunday lunch but here I had a starter of grilled goat's cheese salad and then an amazing veggie Wellington with all the trimmings. My partner raved about his home-made pate and the ruby red Devon beef and Exmoor Ale Yorkshire pudding. We both couldn't resist having Chef Deborah's signature hot chocolate pudding and it was delicious. I only wish I lived near this pub so I could go all the time.
