I chose Teignworthy Reel Ale from the three on pump before I saw the awesomely named Bucket of Blood (on gravity with 1 other), by 1 of my favourite breweries, St Austell. Shame I didn't have time for another, but my pint was pretty good anyway. Sporty pub too. Darts and a screen towards the back. Liverpool are the pubs team of choice (never mind, eh).

There were three ales on. As usual I was drawn to the comedy name so guess which one I went for (out of Doom Bar, Bays Best and Pheasent Plucker). It was a tasty dark ale. Studied the nice fish tank behind the bar, while I waited for my pint to be pulled. Shows sky sports.

As a result it has an eclectic atmosphere that mostly works very well. There are sometimes live bands on, and the Sunday Quiz is very popular (tends to run term time only due to relying on students). I would also recommend the food, which is home made and very good - especially the Sunday Roast, I would count the Veggie option as the best one available locally.

As we were having 'a bit of a session' we left the strong ramification-laden port-stout and went for a reliable and tasty pint of Otter Ale During our whole visit we were constantly distracted and our conversation interrupted by bird noises. We couldn't see a pet bird (and it sounded kind of fake) but whomever or whatever was making the noises was incredibly annoying, marring the visit slightly.

This is a wonderful old fashioned pub. The best one I found in Topsham. The layout is a bit awkward…read moreand cramped though(you could easily walk into a room that is in theory off limits.as I managed to). My fellow drinkers seemed to be very accommodating when it came to making room for strangers at their tables. There are no pumps, the beer is dispensed from barrels in a side room. The person behind the bar was very friendly (especially as I had wandered behind the bar myself) and (once I had slunk round to the correct side of the counter) served me Summa That (the name of the beer, from the Branscombe brewery). A good pub anytime, but another one that must be even better in the summer when you can take your drink outside. The building dates from the 16th century and the pub has been run by the same family since the late 19th century.

It has a fair range of beers so spent a couple of hours here, then we discovered that they had a restaurant upstairs. The following night we decided to have a meal here, the food was fresh and sourced locally; I was impressed with the quality and the price of our meals. I had Prawns as a starter followed by steak with all the trimmings, my partner had Steak Pie followed by Lemon Meringue all for £36.00 and that included a bottle of wine.

But not today (19/10/24), we called in for a drink on our way home at 9.45pm to be told last orders had been called and turned away by the same young girl who we found very unwelcoming yesterday mid afternoon. who wanted to spend more time on her phone and out of the bar area. 28+ years we've been visiting the DA and never have we felt so unwelcomed. Never did I ever feel I'd want to write a review like this but we are sorry this has alway been our home from home pub however not this last few days. Fingers crossed we see an old welcoming face before we leave to go home and not one who you feel your putting her out by even walking through the door! Sorry DA this makes me so sad to write this...we normally eat, drink, laugh and love this pub and staff !!!

Many a happy session spent in this charming old pub, right on the riverfront…read more Right at the end of the walkway is Bayards Cove, a tiny little fort, and the cobbled streets alongside and picturesque housefronts have been the scene for several TV shows. Inside the pub, there's any number of photographs on display of various luminaries and scenes you might recognise. It's got that old-world air about it, deep long bar, panelled walls and despite the tourist trade has a great 'local' atmosphere, presided over by a genial host (or maybe it was just the barman. Either way, the staff are great!) Outside, you can watch the water go by and see the lights twinkling around the town when darkness falls. Lovely pub - and their pub meals are pretty tasty too!
