Devon is not on top of its yelp game, so I'm out to review all the places I've been to help it out…read more I've been to Jack twice now, both times on business dinners. First off, you need to call and book a table in advance. You arrive close to your time of booking, but don't plan to eat at that time. You take a seat in the social waiting lounge. A server will bring you menus and get you a local beer while you look over the menu. When you're ready to order, you do so from the waiting area. Once your order is stated by the kitchen, you get a table. This is such a great system for socializing. It's much nicer to sit on a comfy chair in a group versus being stuck at a dinner table. The food is quite delicious, but the menu is very limited. I've had the grilled goat cheese*, a roasted chicken dish, the seasonal vegetable side, and the posh prawn cocktail. All was delicious, but on the last visit I really wanted something light and lean, but they don't have that. I was thinking a pretty simple salad with some grilled chicken. Not an option here. It's a gastropub and they only do that style of food. *If you order the grilled goat cheese as a main you will get 2x the goat cheese and some potatoes. That isn't clear on the menu, but that's what happens. Still, the food they turn out is mostly local and they donate a portion of certain food (I think the fish and chips) to a local charity. It's definitely a great option in the Exeter area. I must leave you with one final note. Although I'm not a fan of sweets, Most of my colleagues and customers order their sticky toffee pudding. It is apparently one of the better ones in the area.

Bad restaurant experience . Today me and my mates went…read moreinto this restaurant and chaotic would be a nice way to put it. When I ordered my food I asked for 2 scrambled eggs. The person at the till was very confusing and didn't explain to me how the soft drink system works when I asked. So when we finally got our food I received 4 servings eggs on toast. I obviously didn't order this so I told a member of staff my receipt and what happened and to this their response was, "this isn't a clothing store we can't take that back". I continued to make my case but they simply did not care and then said ,"just give it to someone else if you don't want it". To add insult to injury the food came out cold and the my friends where not 100% satisfied with their food either. This experience may not be fully representative of this establishment, but you may want to think twice if your looking for outstanding costumer service.

We were told due to recent fire chips not available however wedges as alternative were offered. The pizza was burnt, hunters chicken reheated with greasy wedges and fish pie watery served with mash on top and wedges. We had read all the excellent reviews and disappointed our experience didn't match up. Perhaps we should have returned during our stay in Dawlish to try the carvery .....

We visit this pub quite often simply because it offers good food (Carvery) and the owners and…read morepeople who work there are friendly and nice to talk to. It gets very busy during the weekends and evenings so its worth making a booking. Although its possible to walk to it from Dawlish or Teignmouth its easier to drive if the weather is looking a bit doubtful. There is a large car park, although it does seem to get pretty full! Its easy to park though normally so its not an issue. Food is simply excellant. As someone else stated about sauces - the sauces are on the end of the carvery area. The Carvery enables you to choose one,two or three meats and obviously as many vegetables as you want or can fit on your plate in my case. Puddings are equally good, although we are normally so full up from the carvery we dont often have pudding! Overall, I would recommend this pub to anyone that was passing by. In the summer you can sit outside, which offers good views out over the hills and sea.
