We had a bar snack sandwich each and was impressed by the staff and the quality of the food, so we had a quick look at the full menu and decided to book a table for that evening. The food is quite traditional, but with a wonderful eastern influence. Beautifully presented with fantastic flavours, every course was a delight and I thought the bill was very reasonable. I've certainly paid more for lesser fare than this! I would heartily recommend anybody who finds themselves in the Barnstaple area check this place out!

I do remember the food being very good and one of my first experiences of proper food. Since the new owners took over, the standards have only gone up. They've kept their AA Rosette by sticking to good, locally sourced food done without too much fuss. I took my staff here for the annual post-Christmas meal. The place is favoured by older folk and the setting always reminds me of being in someone's lounge rather than a restaurant. The building is essentially just another old cottage in the village which has been converted into a restaurant, which brings it's own charm with low ceilings and exposed wood. It also comes across as fairly unpretentious. We chose from the set menu which was £25 or so for three courses. Nicely balanced menu, which is always good when you have a choice of 4 for each course - it makes decisions easy as well. The restaurant was fairly full by the time our food came, and the service was always pretty slick but relaxed enough for a Sunday lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal, washed down with a few bottles of the house wine - a very respectable Sauvignon Blanc. In summary, a decent place. Probably slightly above the average in terms of cost for the area (especially for a village), but it's definitely worth it. Especially when you consider how many times I've paid that much and had a very average meal.

With a mainly English-based menu, Gerry Craig uses the local produce of the highest quality for his menu. A good wine list, with house wines from £12.50 and a good choice in the higher brackets. The three course menu is from £31.00 or two courses from £28.00 for dinner or Sunday lunch on the 1st and 3rd of each month for 3 courses and coffee - £22.50

This Sam's offers a combination of fish, meat, salads and pizza. The fish is the thing to get at Sam's, it will be local and good. But, I'm vegetarian so the pizza is great for me, the anti pasta is also great and there's a good choice of local beers and other nibbles. The service is good, very friendly and laid back, rocking up covered in sand and wearing flip flops is absolutely fine. So my pre Sam's tip is to go for a nice long walk and a swim along the coast, there's lots of gorgeous coves along the coast towards fowey.

Ceilings so low even I had to duck a couple times around the many old wood beams and brick arches all over the place.

Live music was excellent, and it definitely filled the place, making it actually a bit too hot for my comfort, but that's how the English do it. Seating outdoors as well for the smokers. Small bar food menu, but also an upper restaurant part as well with full menu of your usual British food. So glad we stumbled upon this place, somewhat hidden from the main road, and will always be a place we visit when in town.
