While on holiday in Hele Valley came across Hele Billy's and found the food and the staff good. We ate there on several occasions and also just popped in for a drink and a few games of pool. Great since the no smoking ban came into force and the place has been steam cleaned. Nice atmosphere
Hele Billys – IlfracombeLovely food, but we felt we paid a lot for the restaurant's reputation.
Oyster Shack The – KingsbridgeI just have to say how good this place really is. From the moment we drove down the drive way to the moment we departed. The tall, good looking Restaurant Manager was an excellent host and chose a delightful wine that complinented our food perfectly. Well worth a visit or two!
Buckland-Tout-Saints – KingsbridgeGreat restaurant owned by Barbara and Simon since December 2005, assisted by daughters Farah and Maxine. Many home made dishes, freshly cooked and great quality. Relaxed atmosphere and good fun. Only a small place so make sure you book at weekends.
Hele Billys – IlfracombeThis restaurant is excellent if you like home cooked food the menu is fairly extensive. If you have children this is perfect as they have an indoors and an outdoors play area.
Cat and Fiddle Inn – ExeterThis has to be the best fish and chips i have ever tasted. From what i could see the owners know there business inside out and back to front and run it to perfection. We stay in Coombe Martin regularly and never miss going down to Braunton at least once to visit Squires during our holiday. FANTASTIC
Squires Fish Restaurant – BrauntonYuuuummmmmmmyyyyyyyyyy. Fantastic food and the service was great too. Will definitely be visiting again soon
Hele Billys – IlfracombeService was great, smiley faces all round! Definitely go back again for the lasagne! Pub was clean and tidy and toilets were hygienic. Definitely recommend!!!
Blacksmiths Arms – BidefordA busy Thursday evening, so a booking was an excellent idea. Staff were friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable striking just the right balance of familiarity and genuine support (none of the false American 'Have a nice day!) The ambience was excellent and, though busy, we were never overwhelmed or claustrophobic as there is an open and airy feel to the place. Service was swift without ever feeling rushed or under pressure. The menu is varied and provides plenty of choice for most people. Our starters and main courses (Sea Bass & Rib Eye Steak) were excellent and the desserts were high quality and a suitable finale. I was more than happy with the experience and wholeheartedly recommend Strada, particularly if you receive the same superior service that we experienced!
Strada – ExeterOne of the best places i have been in a long while
Swans Nest Inn – ExeterI have been a regular visitor to Teignmouth and Shaldon since the late 1950s. This is a special restaurant, a one off. Shaldon is a peaceful quaint estuary village and ODE staff give a personal service with the Chef/owner visiting your table to check you are satisfied with the taste of your food. The waitress was immaculate and very polite in dealings. My wife is vegetarian, does not eat fish although eats free range eggs. She found the choice of food delightful. The skills of the chef with world wide experience is obvious in the presentation and taste of the food. An enjoyable evening !
ODE Restaurant – TeignmouthI have visited the White Heart three times for lunch. The set lunch is good value with good choice of wines. The guest is welcomed and the service throughout is warm and friendly. Anthony Maggs
White Hart Inn and Restaurant – Ivybridgeabsolutely the best Sunday carvery in the area the staff are friendly and efficient and the food was 2nd to none if i had one complaint it would be a lack of rose wine but having said this the white wine cellar is excellent
Jethros – Okehamptonstaff here are extremely friendly and helpful. Clean, fantastic decor and generous servings of meals at a average, reasonable cost. would definitely go again
Frankie and Bennys – PlymouthExcellent all round and we were even allowed time to use the a la carte although we had to leave for the threatre. top marks all round
Chloe’s Restaurant – Plymouthnice friendly pub grub. outside area is a lovely suntrap in the summer and good range of beers
Morley Arms – PlymouthIn a nice location with a nice outside area, this is a lovely place to go with friends and family. Straightforward English pubgrub of a generous size and a nice friendly atmosphere
Lockyers Quay – PlymouthMy husband and I popped in on the off chance and really wanted to try the 'fish side', however they were fully booked for a birthday lunch. We therefore went to the 'pub side' and had the special lunch menu. Whilst the portions were 'small' they were adequate although I too found some of the dishes a little on the salty side, hence 'very good' rather than 'outstanding'. The home made bread was a definite plus and I would certainly return, just hold the salt a little!
